  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 449

    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

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 447

    "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

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 446

    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 187

    Edward's POV My phone buzzed for the third time before nine. Vivienne. I let it ring out. It sat face down on my desk next to Philip's email from this morning. Extension granted—two additional weeks. Opposing counsel notified at 8:47 AM. Alicia knew by now. Knew I'd asked for more time. Kne

  • Beneath His Cold Vows   Chapter 185

    Edward's POV The study door was open when I heard footsteps in the hall. Heavy. Intentional. Not Marie's careful steps or my mother's heels clicking against floor. I looked up from the contracts spread across my desk. Daniel filled the doorway. Still in the same clothes from brunch. White shirt

    Either the sender was toying with me, or this was something far uglier, and I was doing exactly what they wanted by standing around in the open. I walked toward the down escalator. Fast. Not looking back anymore. Not caring who saw me leave. I stepped onto the moving metal stairs. A figure rose

    The words settled between us. Substantial. He'd crossed an ocean. For me. "Tell me about the campaign." His voice shifted. Lighter. "What you've built." I hesitated. Then started talking. Slowly at first. Testing how much he actually wanted to know. Government-backed initiative. Cultural tou
