Howard Johnson’s office erupted in chaos.

Glass shattered across the marble floor as another vase slammed against the wall. The sound echoed through the massive room, leaving shards glittering under the lights.

Howard’s chest rose and fell with rage.

“How did he escape death?!” he roared.

The assistants standing near the door didn’t dare move.

“Sixteen men!” Howard shouted, his voice echoing through the office. “Sixteen trained killers went to that estate!”

His fist slammed against the desk.

  • Before love Lies   Michelle last song

    Michelle – POV The cold was the first thing I noticed. Not the fear. Not the pain in my wrists from the cuffs digging into my skin. The cold. It seeped up through the concrete floor, through the metal chair, into my bones—like this place was designed to drain the life out of you before they even touched you. My hands were locked behind my back, shackled tight enough to cut circulation. Every small movement sent sharp pulses of pain up my arms. But I didn’t move. Didn’t struggle. Didn’t give them anything. Footsteps echoed. Heavy. Measured. Coming closer. I lifted my head slowly as the door creaked open. A man stepped inside. Broad shoulders. Controlled posture. The kind of presence that didn’t need to announce itself—it just was. He walked toward me, each step deliberate against the concrete floor. “Michelle…” he said, almost casually. Like we were meeting for a conversation. Not an execution. “You made a lot of decisions.” I said nothing. My eyes stayed locked

  • Before love Lies   Accepting fate

    Debbie – POVI knew.Before she said it.Before the silence stretched too long… before her eyes dropped to the floor like she couldn’t carry the truth anymore.I knew.The moment she hesitated when I asked how.The moment her voice cracked just enough to give her away.And when I said his name—John.And she didn’t deny it?That was all the confirmation I needed.I turned away from her, not because I didn’t care…But because I cared too much.My hands curled into fists at my sides, nails pressing into my palms.My son.Out of everyone in the world…It had to be him.A slow breath filled my lungs, but it didn’t steady me.Nothing about this was steady.Nothing about this was okay.“You and John…” I muttered under my breath, shaking my head.I tried to picture it.Tried to understand it.But all I saw was the boy I raised.The boy who carried the weight of the world on his shoulders long before anyone asked him to.The boy who loved too deeply… too completely.And now this?A child.A s

  • Before love Lies   Love and secrets

    Jasmine Ito – POVThe truth was simple.And that was what made it hurt the most.John was the only man I had ever truly loved.Not admired.Not respected.Not chosen out of duty.Loved.My fingers trembled as I wiped at the tears slipping down my face, but they wouldn’t stop. They came faster now, warmer, heavier—each one carrying a memory I couldn’t outrun.That night.It replayed in fragments.The way his lips found mine—not hesitant, not rushed… just certain. Like he had been waiting for that moment longer than either of us wanted to admit.The way my heart had stuttered—actually stopped—for just a second when he looked at me.Like I mattered.Like I was the only person in the world.I let out a shaky breath.“And then you left,” I whispered to myself.The memory twisted.Him dropping to one knee.Not for show. Not for politics.For me.And I—I ran.A quiet sob escaped my lips as I pressed my hand over my mouth.“That must’ve broken you…”The realization cut deeper now than it had

  • Before love Lies   A baby on the way

    Jasmine Ito – POVIt started as a feeling I couldn’t explain.Not pain.Not sickness.Just… wrong.Like something inside me had shifted slightly out of place, and no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t push it back where it belonged.I stood in front of the bathroom mirror, staring at my reflection like it might confess something I didn’t already know.“You’re fine,” I whispered.But even to my own ears, it sounded like a lie.It had been a month.A month since that night.And I hadn’t let myself think about it—not really. I buried it under work, distractions, noise… anything to keep from replaying it in my head.But now?Now my body wouldn’t let me ignore it.My stomach twisted again—not sharp, but tight. Like a knot slowly being pulled tighter and tighter.I pressed my hand against it, frowning.“What is wrong with me…”“Jasmine.”I flinched.Debbie’s voice cut clean through my thoughts.I turned too quickly, my shoulder brushing against the counter.She was standing in the doorway,

  • Before love Lies   One last stand

    President Thomas Banks – POVI don’t know anymore.The thought didn’t come like a whisper—it slammed into me, heavy and unforgiving, echoing through the hollow silence of the Oval Office. The world I had spent years trying to stabilize… was slipping through my fingers.I stood alone, staring out the reinforced glass windows. Washington, D.C. was still there—monuments, lights, life—but it felt like a relic. A photograph of a time that no longer existed.“There’s a way,” I muttered under my breath.There had to be.But every path I saw led to the same place: collapse.The cost of action? Possibly the end of my presidency. Maybe even the end of the United States as a superpower.The cost of inaction?Far worse.I turned sharply, walking back toward my desk. My hand hovered over the phone for just a second—just long enough for doubt to creep in.Then I picked it up.“Get me MI6,” I ordered.A pause.Then the line began to ring.They’re the only ones left who might understand the scope of

  • Before love Lies   A new world order

Superiority.Everything we had built into her.Cindy was supposed to be the world champion ai tech The screens flickered to life.Code streamed. Systems aligned.For a brief moment— I felt it again.That familiar sense of control. Cindy,” I said calmly,initiate counter-intrusion protocols.” A pause. Then—Processing…” Good. Very good.

  • Before love Lies   Voice in my head

    As we gathered in the room once again, a heavy hush fell over the crowd. Nervous whispers rippled through the air, filling my ears with anxious chatter. Everyone took their seats abruptly, the tension thick enough to feel. Then the door opened. A single figure stepped inside and walked with purpose

  • Before love Lies   The truth

    As I opened the folder, a jolt of adrenaline coursed through me. Inside, there was only a single photograph—no documents, no briefing notes, no identifying marks. Just the image of an older man, his expression cold and unreadable. I quickly flipped through the pages, feeling a wave of confusion was

  • Before love Lies   The office

    With shaking hands, I broke the seal and unfolded the letter. The paper trembled as much as my breath.Dear Son,I never wanted to explain things to you this way. I always believed that by the time you were old enough—strong enough to stand on your own—I would be there beside you, guiding you throu

    Sorting through the paperwork, my hands moved faster than my thoughts, folders blurring together as panic and purpose collided in my chest. Then something stopped me cold.“Michelle… I think I found something,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper.I flipped open a thin, unmarked envelope. Insid
