The morning after the party, Regina’s head throbbed with more than just the remnants of wine. The events of the night played on a loop in her mind —the confrontation with Nicholas, his sudden confession, that kiss… and her own shocking response to it. She had surrendered in that moment, and the realization made her stomach twist with confusion and self-loathing.

She had promised herself she would never let anyone toy with her feelings again, and yet, here she was, tangled in a mess she hadn’t seen coming.

Her phone rang, the sharp sound cutting through the silence of her apartment. She glanced at the screen, fully expecting to see Nicholas’s name again. But it wasn’t him.

It was Mr. Armand, a client she had been courting for months— an influential executive with ties to international markets. Regina’s pulse quickened as she answered, trying to shake off the emotional fog.

“Hello, Mr. Armand.”

“Regina, good morning. I hope I’m not calling too early,” his deep voice rumbled through the

  • Betrayed By Ex, Loved By My Billionaire Boss    The beginning, Not The End

    Third POV Regina’s phone buzzed again. Another message. Another picture.This time, her hands shook as she opened it. Nicholas… with another woman smiling. His hand on her waist.And the note beneath: Still think you know him?Her chest tightened. She sat frozen on the couch, the photo glowing on the screen.When Nicholas walked in, she didn’t even look up.“You’ve been ignoring me,” he said softly. He noticed the phone in her hand and frowned. “What’s that?”She turned the screen toward him, her voice flat. “Why don’t you tell me?”He stared at the picture, silent. Then, without a word, he took the phone, deleted the message, and set it down.“It’s fake,” he said firmly. “A bad edit. You believe that trash?”Regina’s throat burned. “Why not? It looks real. Everyone says you’ll leave me one day. That I’m just a phase for you.”His jaw tightened. He stepped closer, crouching so his eyes met hers. “Listen to me. I don’t care what they send you. I don’t care what they say. You are not a

    Regina's POVHe's waking up. Three words. That was all.But something about them turned my blood cold, colder than when Dan betrayed me, colder than Lloyd's insults, colder than waking up in a hospital after my coma, afraid my baby wouldn't make it.Nicholas read the message over my shoulder.And for the first time in months, I saw something I never expected in his eyes. Terror."Nicholas..." I whispered. "Who's he?"He didn't answer. Not right away.Not even as Julia gasped for air behind us, or as Mike rushed into the estate with backup like we'd just survived a hostage crisis—again.Only when the ambulance took Julia away, and I held Nicholas's hand tight enough to draw blood, did he speak."The first heir." We were alone. Sitting in the back of the van.Hope safe, Julia sedated, Mike and Jenna watching every window like assassins would crawl through them any minute. I faced Nicholas."You better start talking."He took a long breath. Then dropped a bomb."My grandfather didn't lea

    Regina's POVHope cooed softly in my arms, completely unaware that her entire existence had become a bargaining chip.I stared at the photo on my burner phone again.Julia Tied up with Blood on her face.Eyes wide in terror, but still alive.Barely. And that message..."Bring the child Or bury the mother." I nearly dropped the phone.Jenna, sitting across from me on the jet, saw the color drain from my face. "What is it? Regina?"I showed her. She didn't scream. Didn't cry.Just clenched her fists so tight her nails drew blood."We have to turn around," I whispered. "Now."Jenna grabbed my wrist. "No. That's exactly what he wants. You go back with Hope, you're handing him the power.""But Julia—""Wouldn't want you risking your daughter's life for hers. You know that."I stood, pacing the narrow cabin. "Then what do I do? Sit here while that monster tortures my mother? I can't, I won't!"She was quiet for a long moment. "Maybe... you don't need to go back alone."I arrived at the Ande

    Regina’s POVThey said giving birth was the hardest part. They lied.The hardest part was holding your baby while staring at a death threat written in elegant cursive on hospital-grade paper unsigned, unbothered, and soaked in the scent of power.Nicholas barged into the room just as the nurse slipped out with a knowing look.His shirt was wrinkled. His sleeves rolled up. His hands. Blood.“Nicholas!” I gasped. “What—”He crossed the room in three steps and dropped to his knees beside my bed.“I’m okay,” he said hoarsely, brushing hair from my sweaty face. “But… he’s not.”My chest tightened. “Elias?” He nodded slowly.“Self-defense,” he said. “He tried to kill me. He failed.”I swallowed. “The police?”“The Keepers handled it. Covered it like a heart attack. No trail.” My body relaxed for half a second.Then I remembered the note. And held it out to him.He read it once. Then again.And then the fire returned to his eyes..Hope was sleeping.Which meant I had maybe twenty minutes befo

    Regina's POVI watched the video over and over again. It wasn't the betrayal that shocked me Lloyd had always been a snake.It was how easy it looked. Like ordering coffee."I want the girl dead."She nodded with No hesitation.Like my life... like my baby's life didn't even matter.Nicholas had gone still beside me, fists clenched, jaw ticking like a time bomb."This was posted on a private server, meant for black-market contractors," Mike said, pacing the room. "Someone hacked it, probably to sell the hit. But the hacker sent it to me instead. Said they 'like rooting for the underdog.'""That makes two of us," Jenna muttered.But me? I couldn't speak.Because I felt the target on my back now. It wasn't paranoia anymore. It was real.And I wasn't ready. Not for what came next.Nicholas shoved our emergency bags into the trunk of a nondescript black SUV."I'm not risking another ambush," he muttered. "We move again. Tonight."I touched his arm. "We can't keep running forever."His eyes

    Regina's POVJulia collapsed before I could even catch her."Nicholas!" I screamed, dropping to my knees.He rushed over, flashlight trembling in his grip. "Move, let me check her pulse."It was faint. But there.Still alive. Barely."Call Mike," he ordered. "Tell him to bring the backup team now. This place is compromised.""Power's dead. No signal."Nicholas muttered something savage under his breath and pulled out a device from his pocket one of those satellite communicator things. He sent a single pinged message.Then looked at me."Help me get her to the couch. Now."Her lips were cracked. Skin pale. Blood under her nails..She looked like a ghost.Except her eyes burned with clarity."Michael..." she whispered. "He never died.""I know," I said softly. "We saw the photo."She turned to me. "You don't understand. I saw him. Tonight. He brought me here. Then... he let me go.""Let you go?" Nicholas asked, frowning. "Why would he—?""Because he wanted her to know the truth," she sai
