"Finish that sentence." My voice cut across hers.

A beat passed. A shift crossed her eyes. Then she said it anyway. "Cleaned houses for people like us."

The room went completely quiet.

    "Finish that sentence." My voice cut across hers. A beat passed. A shift crossed her eyes. Then she said it anyway. "Cleaned houses for people like us." The room went completely quiet.

    Alicia’s POV The pen was in my hand. I hadn't moved since the door closed. The page in front of me, the same line, and now I knew someone had been observing me return to it, watching long enough to count each return. I had spent three years believing he never saw the parts that weren't performed.

    "He also mentioned Vera Sorel has made her attendance at the follow-up conditional on yours," I said, letting the other piece of the weight land between us. "He wanted me to know that." The pen halted in her hand. She took a breath, slow, through her nose, and the line of her throat moved once befo

    Edward's POV Phillip arrived at twenty past ten. He settled into the chair across my desk and set his coat on the arm of it. The draft was already in his hand before he opened his mouth. "Signed and filed as of this morning. Your name on the minority position. Clean." He set a single folded page

    "I don't know." "You said it to him. Not here." The pause that followed remained too long to be casual. "What are you afraid of?" I didn't rush it. "That I'm seeing it right. And it still falls apart anyway." She shook her head slightly. "That's not uncertainty. That's you refusing to close y

    Alicia's POV Elena didn't turn when I came in. She was at the counter, spoon hovering over a bowl she hadn't touched in a while. The kettle had gone cold long enough to feel intentional. My bag hit the floor by the door. She didn't look at it. "You came back wrong." "I came back two days ago."

    I stepped closer, closing what little space remained. My lips found hers. The kiss was hard, claiming. Her fingers found my shirt, gripping it. I pulled her closer, my hand sliding into her hair. She gasped, breath short and fierce. I broke away just enough to look at her. Her eyes burned. Her che

    Edward's POV My hand closed around her wrist before I thought about it. The room was still watching. Whispers rippled outward like water. Lucy stood frozen, wine dripping down the front of her gold dress. Dark red against bright gold. Impossible to miss. Her mouth opened in shock that looked almos

    Edward's POV The boardroom emptied at four‑thirty. Cold coffee sat in a chipped mug. My phone lay facedown on the table. In my mind, the guest list played on repeat: the Carters. Jennifer Caldwell. Senator Whitmore. Three board members have been circling since my father's death. Waiting. They didn

    Anaya's POV I woke to an empty bed. The sheets on Edward's side were cold. Undisturbed. He hadn't come to bed at all. I lay there for a moment, staring at the ceiling, trying to decide if I cared. My chest felt tight, but I couldn't tell if it was hurt or just tiredness. Maybe both. Maybe neither
