I watched Edward's hand rest against the edge of the table. His knuckles pressed down. His presentation folder sat open in front of him. The one with the Singapore projections.

He'd come in prepared. Confident. Ready to walk this board through a plan he'd built piece by piece. And now he was standi

    The auctioneer's cadence moved through the wall. I had built something without him. That was still true. It would stay true. Whatever I said next didn't touch it. "I don't know," I said. "That's the honest answer. Not the managed version." I met his gaze. "I don't know if what's left is enough to

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 397

    Alicia's POV The older man was still talking. "Seven years," he said. "Four jurisdictions. We moved water infrastructure across borders that hadn't spoken to each other in a generation." His hands traced corridors in the air between us. "The archive is the proof it happened. That it worked." He tu

    “You entered without cause,” I said. “You stayed without one.” “I don’t know what this is between you two but—” “My wife.” No variation in tone. No additional weight needed. Alicia’s hand lifted a little, then halted mid-motion and settled again without completing the gesture. The woman exhaled

    Edward’s POV “Forty thousand. Do I have forty-five?” The paddle was already raised. Alicia’s hand remained under mine, unchanged in position, as though neither of us had adjusted to its presence since it settled there. “Forty-five.” I raised. “Fifty. Fifty-five.” On the left, a man leaned forw

    The fifth lot began. Edward moved to speak to someone at the side of the room. I watched the auctioneer. She crossed the room toward him. He turned when she spoke. She laughed. It had worked before, that laugh. I scanned the sixth lot. Mixed media, authenticated 2019, provenance verified. Her h

    Alicia's POV Volkov was already at the door when we came in. His eyes went to my dress and came back up. Lazily. He turned to Edward, and they shook hands. It ran a half-second longer than it needed. "You both came," he said. "You invited us," Edward said. "I invite many people. They don't alwa

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 159

    Alicia's POV I stepped inside quietly. The door clicked shut behind me with a sound that felt more like breath than noise. No rush through the hallway. No tight shoulders. No frantic energy. Just the calm of someone who had already crossed her line long before the estate lights disappeared behin

    Alicia's POV I filled the kettle. Set it on the stove. Turned the dial. The flame caught with a soft hiss. I leaned against the counter. Waited. The kitchen lamp threw a low glow across the tiles. Beyond the window, the city had settled into Saturday night: muted, distant, the kind of quiet tha

    Edward's POV I woke to silence. Not the kind that comes from rest. The kind that presses into your chest when the world has shifted overnight and your body hasn't caught up yet. The petition sat on the nightstand. I hadn't moved it. I hadn’t moved it since the moment I dropped it on the floor,

    He grinned. "I know. Airport. But New York beats London any day." We stepped outside. Cool air hit. Afternoon light slanting across the parking lot. Daniel breathed in. Exhaled slowly. "That's better." We reached the car. I popped the trunk. Daniel tossed his bag in. Smooth and practiced. Close
