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

    The engines went quiet at six. The hull met the pier. The crew moved above us. River light came through the porthole, grey and silver, crossing the ceiling in slow panels. She was on her side facing me. Her hair across the pillow. Her mouth softly parted in the way that belonged only to sleep. I

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 448

    Edward’s POV The hull rose and settled with the slow pull of the river. I lay in the dark with my jacket on the floor and my shoes beside it and listened to the boat. The timber. The joins. The engine below running its low faithful count. The porthole showed clouds. The moon behind it traced the

    "I fell off a bicycle when I was seven," I said. "Broke my arm. The left one." "You're afraid of the dark," he said. "You sleep with the curtain open so the street light comes in. You never told me directly but I worked it out in the third month." I set down my wine. "You remember that." "I remem

    Alicia's POV The dress arrived at four. I found the box on Elena's table. Black paper, no ribbon, his handwriting stark on the card: The water. Inside, folded in tissue, was the black silk from the wardrobe at the estate. The one I had left hanging there. I showered. I pinned my hair up. At seve

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 445

    Edward's POV The grey light filled the room. Alicia's leg lay across mine, heavy with sleep. Her hair spread on my shoulder, across the pillow. Her palm rested on my chest, rising and falling with my breath. The arm beneath her had gone numb hours ago. I flexed my fingers until the pins and needl

    Alicia's POV He was on the floor. I looked at him until the silence found its shape. He looked back. The full version of him. Just Edward on the floor, his eyes on mine, waiting without arranging what he was waiting for. "We never chose each other," he said. "Let me choose you." "Then start,"

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 169

    Alicia's POV I fumbled with the keys at Elena's door. One of the grocery bags slipped, handles cutting into my palm. I shifted my grip, and got the key in, turned it. The door swung open. Warm air hit me first. Light from the living room. The TV was low on some crime show Elena wasn’t watching.

    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

    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
