Chapter 1
The Night That Changed EverythingCarina’s POVI shouldn't be here. Not in this suite. Not in this bed. Not under him. But I am.My back arches as his mouth grazes the curve of my collarbone, hot breath sending tremors down my spine. His touch is fire…burning away every doubt, every ounce of logic I had left. Dante Santiago is a storm I should’ve never walked into, but now I’m drowning in him.“Say it,” he whispers against my skin. “I want you,” I breathe, even though I shouldn't.His lips find mine, fierce and full of longing, like he’s been starving and I’m the only thing that can satisfy his hunger. I kiss him back with everything in me, pouring in years of loneliness, pain, and silent dreams I never dared to speak aloud.My clothes vanish. He undress my clothes Skin meets skin, and he moves above me with slow intensity, groaning low as he sinks into me. My breath catches. The world fades.It's just us. Dante and Carina. A billionaire and a waitress. A man with everything and a gir

Chapter 2
The Price of SilenceCarina’s POVThe words echo in my skull like a death sentence.“We’re getting a paternity test. Today, Dante said.”Dante's voice is sharp, final. Vanessa’s smile is the sharpest knife I’ve ever felt.I stand frozen, my fingers holding the door-frame like it’s the only thing holding me up. My knees tremble. My chest is tight. I’m not ready for this…not like this.“Get out,” I said, and my voice cracking. Dante steps forward. “Carina…”“I said get out!”I slam the door, but his hand stops it. For a second, our eyes lock…his full of anger and betrayal, mine brimming with fear. But behind it, I see something else.Hurt. He’s not just furious. He’s wounded, and somehow, that hurts me more than his threats.“Just talk to me,” he says, quieter now. “If you’d just told me…” “I don’t owe you anything,” I snap. “You disappeared, Dante. You walked away and never looked back.”He flinches. “You told me not to.” “And you listened,” I said, my heart breaking.He says nothing. V

Chapter 3
Shadows in the CradleCarina’s POVI stare at my phone long after the call ends, my fingers frozen around it. Vanessa’s voice still rings in my ears like a curse.“You think this story has a happy ending, sweetheart? I’m not done with you yet.” And then…like fate knew the perfect timing…my baby kicked for the first time.I sit there, alone in my kitchen, trying to figure out which part of my life just changed more: the tiny flutter in my womb, or the threat that came with it.I press my palm gently over my belly. “You felt that, didn’t you?” I whisper. Another soft kick.God, she’s real. She’s here, and I’m not ready.The next morning, I don’t tell Dante about the call. I want to…I almost do, three times…but I stop myself. Every time I look at him, he’s… trying. He brings groceries. He makes me tea. He even folds baby clothes I didn’t know he bought.He’s not perfect. He’s still guarded, still unsure where we stand. But there’s gentleness in his eyes now I’ve never seen before. And I

Chapter Four“The Fight in Her Eyes”POV CarinaI never thought heartbreak could evolve into fuel, but it does.By the time I step out of the apartment, it’s already dark—inside and out. The city hums like it doesn’t care that my world is burning down. I hail a cab with trembling fingers and mutter Vanessa’s address to the driver. He glances back at me once, like he sees something wild in my eyes, then drives without a word.Dante's words keep echoing. You weren’t fast enough.I want to scream. I want to go back in time and scream at myself to speak sooner, run faster, tell him everything. I should’ve told him I was pregnant the night we made love. When he traced my collarbone like I was a poem he was trying to memorize. When he mentioned my name like it hurt to say. But instead, I let fear steal my voice.Now Vanessa has him. And I have nothing… except the truth. And Emily. And something else. Something I haven’t used in years.The cab screeches to a halt in front of a building that

Chapter 5
The Sister’s LiePOV – CarinaI stare at the photograph on the floor as if it might dissolve, vanish, change into something less damning. Something less real. But it doesn’t.It’s her. My sister, Alina. Smiling next to Vanessa. Her arm slung casually around the woman who tried to destroy everything I’ve built. In her other hand…a vial.The same type I saw tonight. The kind that makes a man like Dante forget the woman he loves and believe he belongs to someone else.I fall backward like the wind’s been knocked out of me, my knees hitting the cold floor. “No,” I said. Dante’s hand tightens around mine. “Carina…”I can’t breathe. I can’t think. “She wouldn’t…” My voice breaks. “She’s my sister.”Leo kneels beside me, his expression grim. “I didn’t want to believe it either. But she’s been working with Vanessa for months. I traced the payments. Offshore accounts under Alina’s name. Emails too. She’s been the one leaking your designs. Your sketches. Everything.”I shake my head slowly, eye

Chapter 6
"Blood and Betrayal Carina’s Point Of ViewNo smell of blood surpasses the fear--but no love surpasses it.“Alina!” Her scream cuts the air like a laceration and her hands are greasy with blood. The gun rattles next to her, like thunder in my heart. “No, no, no—stay with me!”Her eyes open, stunned, unconsecrated. “Carina… I was not to, ” Blood drips at the corner of her mouth. This was not expected to happen.My shaking hands touch the wound, but they are too deep. I feel my heart aching, my breath coarse. Dante runs behind Emily who is crying quietly, and Leo screams something which I am unable to absorb.“Who did this?” I choke out. “Who made you do this?”Her lips tremble. “I just wanted to scare them. He said—”Outside, sirens ring in, cutting her in half. Tires screech. The strike of feet on gravel.Leo curses. “We have to go now!” “They’re the police—”“They’re not!” With the last of her strength Alina catches me in the wrist, and her eyes are panicked. “Run, Carina! You had b

The Man behind the shadows.Dante’s POVI’ve been hunted before. but, this time, it is not my life that is at stake but hers.“Get down!” I scream, and drag Carina down to the ground with the glass bursting all around us. The air is filled with bullets and smoke. Emily screams and holds Carina by the arm. My heart stops at the sound.“Move!” Leo screams out in the front seat. The vehicle spins on the rainy highway with bullets flying against the metal. I put Carina down, and covered her with my flesh. She is shaking, repeating the name of Emily again and again.“Hold on,” I growl. “I’ve got you.”Leo turns the car around a corner with tires squealing. We break in a chain-link fence and a deserted alley. We hear the gunfire being drowned in rain.I gave a sharp sigh and looked at the back seat. Carina is pale with tears and blood streaks on her face. Emily cries, but she does not want to be caught, so she has her little hands clinging to the sleeve of Carina.We are clear, Leo puffs, p

"The Price of Secrets"Dante’s Point Of ViewLeo picks up his gun and dies at the door of the car. “We don’t have much time. Unless Lorenzo is behind this, he will make no effort to hold her alive.Something dark is set afire in me with those words.I get into the driver seat and the engine fires up. After which he simply signed his death warrant.Carina is sitting next to me, and she is shaking but looking directly. Her terror has become rage, her suffering has become indestructible.The smirk of Lorenzo is almost visible in the windshield as we are racing to the storm. The usurper of my empire, and my peace, and now--my child. But he made one mistake.He forgot who I am when I have got nothing to lose.The phone buzzes again. There appears a new message: “Come alone. Or she dies.”Carina gasps beside me. And first in years had he, I do not know whether I can make my promise.“If pain had a face, it would look like mine the moment I heard Emily scream through that phone.” “Daddy! He

Chapter 9
A Mother's Gamble Carina’s Point Of ViewThe terror of a mom is not her silence, but her scream that she holds back to save the life of her child.The shot crashes through the night as a thundercrash.For a second I think it’s over. The hitting breaks the air, strikes my head. I stumble, heart pumping, in an attempt to remain still. My cheek hits wet dirt. Cold seeps in, but I just stay.‘Cause if I move—Emily dies.Footsteps get closer. Two of ‘em. Whispering, they are crunching heavy boots.“Did we get her?” one says.“She’s not moving. Check.”My shoulder is seized roughly by a hand. The second one he crouches, I roll, and I take the knife on his belt, and stab him in the thigh. He screams. The man opposite whips around, lifting his gun-- but I am quicker. I grab the gun of the first man and shoot. He drops.The quietness that follows this is sickening.My lungs are on fire, as I squat behind a crate trembling, yet alive. The hit of blood smells metallic as it reaches the air. I

Chapter 10
The Deal with the Devil Carina’s Point Of ViewI used to believe that love was a weakness, however, it is my weapon now. Don’t, Carina, said Dante, and his voice breaks, unpolished, and in the smoke and gunfire. “Don’t let him win. He’ll kill us anyway.” His gaze makes contact with mine- wild, desperate, full of pain. A bruise on his lip, a bruise sprouting over his jaw, and yet now I see the man who kissed me in the dark and said I should never go over to the dark alone. But now we don’t know, and I must be the light. That way at least Emily will live, I think. He shakes his head violently. “No—Carina, please. Don’t.” I keep quiet. My fingers are holding the flash drive Leo has created, the one that I slipped under my sleeve. It is my actual weapon, my bet, and my lie. Lorenzo sits opposite us, as ever composed, still bumping his gun against the hair on Emily. Her body trembles, her eyes open and tears fall silent down her cheeks. I am having a heart ache as it tears my h
