    I ordered wine. The work wasn't finished. The room was quieter. She took the glass without comment. Drank. Set it down and kept writing. She spoke about the eastern corridor communities directly, without framing or adjustment, as if they existed in the room with us. Her hand moved as she talked, m

    Edward's POV The door opened behind me. No knock. She came in already talking. "I need your numbers from Rotterdam before we fix anything else," she said. "The version you gave him assumes—" She stopped. I didn't turn immediately. Just reached for the towel, dragged it once over my face, then

    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

    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.

    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 line connected at noon exactly. "Edward Valentine." "James Hartley, acquisitions. I have Patricia Voss from operations and Michael Chang from IT with me." "Let's start with the timeline."

    At nine-fifteen, I left my office. Took the elevator down to the fifteenth floor, where the legal team worked. The hallway was already busy. Paralegals moving between offices with files. Associates hunched over desks visible through open doors. Vincent Pierce's office was at the end. Door open. He

    Alicia's POV I'd been ready since six. Dressed. Shoes on. Purse at my side on the couch. Elena moved through the apartment doing nothing. Tasks. Coffee we wouldn't drink. Pillows that didn't need straightening. A quiet way of keeping busy. Seven forty-two. My phone sat on the coffee table. Harg

    Vivienne had helped destroy us. And she'd never stopped. Every cruel word she'd ever said to me. Every dismissive look. Every time she'd made me feel worthless and small and wrong. It wasn't personal dislike. It was practice. She'd done it to my mother first. Perfected it on her. Then aimed th
