The son met his gaze.

"Signing a document doesn't give us those years back," he said.

"My father can't start over. He's sixty-four. His health isn't what it was."

"I know."

"So what does this actually do?"

Edward was quiet for a moment.

    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. 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

    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 209

    Alicia's POV The marble was cool under my palms. I'd been gripping the edge of the sink longer than necessary, staring at the woman in the mirror as though she belonged to someone else. She looked composed. Self-possessed. Nothing like the girl who used to fold herself smaller to survive Edward’s

    I didn't stop. Didn't turn around. Just kept walking. Out the front door. Back to my car. Got in. My phone buzzed before I could start the engine. Text from Leo. Victor's office called. Requesting a meeting on Thursday at 9 AM. Described as urgent. I stared at the screen. Thursday. Less tha

    "You bullied her." My voice low. Controlled. "In high school. At Millbrook Prep." "I didn't…" "You called her a charity case." "Edward." "You tormented her." Lucy's eyes darted to Sienna, back to me. "She's lying. I don't even remember her." "You don't remember?" My voice rose. "You don't reme
