A sharp pain throbbed at the back of Castiel’s skull as he stirred awake. His body felt stiff, his wrists sore. He tried to move, but the rough bite of rope around his wrists and ankles stopped him. The realization hit him in waves—he was tied up. Restrained. Trapped. His pulse spiked with panic, breath coming in sharp gasps as he struggled against the restraints.

The chair beneath him creaked as he shifted, his muscles straining, but the ropes didn’t budge. His fingers clenched and unclenched, testing for any slack. None. He tried to turn his head, only to feel the weight of drowsiness still lingering, making his vision blur at the edges.

Then, he noticed her.

Ivy was moving around the room, placing candles on various surfaces, adjusting them with a strange sort of focus, as if she were setting up for something intimate. Romantic.

The sound of his ragged breathing filled the silence before she spoke, her tone light, almost indifferent.

"You're finally awake," she mused, still not lo

    Jane Eleanor WhitmoreBorn: April 16, 1966 – Died: September 2, 1994The engraved letters on the tombstone stood bold against the smooth marble. A bouquet of white lilies rested at its base, placed there by Bentley himself.Dressed in black, Bentley Sterling stood solemnly before the grave of the mother he never met. Beside him, Nova, Olivia, and Charles Sterling stood in silent reverence, their expressions reflecting different shades of grief and remembrance.Nova’s hand rested lightly on Bentley’s arm, a quiet offering of support. Olivia held a single white rose, her fingers tightening around the stem as she gazed at the tombstone with an unreadable expression. Charles stood with his hands clasped in front of him, his jaw tight.Bentley took a slow breath, steadying himself before he spoke."I'm sorry I haven’t visited in a long time. Mom," he started, his voice quieter than usual. "I should have come sooner, but—" He exhaled, shaking his head slightly. "Life has been… busy. So much

    The wedding was nothing short of spectacular, a billionaire’s affair filled with power and prestige. Every detail had been carefully planned, from the towering floral arrangements to the soft melody of the orchestra playing in the background. The atmosphere hummed with anticipation as the guests turned their attention to the aisle.Bentley Sterling stood at the altar, exuding quiet confidence in a custom-made Brioni tuxedo, its rich black fabric catching the light with a subtle sheen. The silk lapels framed his broad shoulders perfectly, and the crisp white dress shirt beneath added to his effortlessly refined look. But none of that mattered to him right now. His expression had softened into a rare, genuine smile—one that only Nova could bring out as he waited for his bride to walk down the aisle.And then she appeared.Nova Sinclair walked down the aisle with a grace that turned heads, but it was her gown that truly stole breaths. A masterpiece of couture design, the custom-made cre

    Castiel’s head lolled to the side as the drugs fully took hold, his body sinking deeper into the couch. His vision blurred at the edges, and the room felt like it was tilting—no, spinning. Everything was moving too fast and too slow at the same time.He tried to speak, but the words didn’t come out right. “Wha… how—” He squinted at Ivy, his tongue thick in his mouth. “How you… you—” He struggled to string his thoughts together. “How… you here?”Ivy grinned, arms folded as she leaned against the door. "I followed you."His sluggish brain tried to process that. "Follo—followed?" His mouth barely formed the word.Ivy nodded, stepping closer. "Mmhmm. You weren’t exactly hard to track, Castiel. A man like you? In the middle of a scandal? Running away to lick your wounds?" She tilted her head. "Predictable."Castiel groaned, dragging a hand down his face. "No… naw, tha's—" He shook his head like that would clear the haze. "That's crazy."Ivy beamed. "Oh, you haven’t heard the crazy part yet

    The music was loud, the bass vibrating through the ground as people danced under the open night sky. The scent of grilled jerk chicken and rum lingered in the warm air, mixing with the salt from the nearby ocean. Castiel sat comfortably on a wooden bench, a drink in his hand, surrounded by a group of stunning Jamaican women who had taken a particular liking to him.They were all laughing, the kind of laughter that came easy with alcohol and good company. One of the women, a curvy goddess with dark skin and long braids, playfully tapped his shoulder. "Mi seh, yuh haffi learn fi talk like wi, yuh cyaan jus' siddung suh an' look cute."Castiel smirked, tilting his head. "Alright, alright. Teach me somethin’."Another girl, her hair in tight curls and eyes filled with amusement, leaned in. "Say, 'Wah gwaan, mi deh yah chill.'""Wah… wah go-wan?" he attempted, his American accent butchering the smooth rhythm of the words.The women burst into laughter, one of them even clapping her hands.

    Dominic Sinclair sat in his grand, high-rise office, the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him offering a stunning view of the city. The room itself exuded power—dark wood paneling, sleek leather chairs, and a massive desk cluttered with files he had no interest in going through.He sighed, rubbing his temples as he grudgingly flipped through another contract. “If one more damn thing goes wrong today, I swear—” he muttered under his breath, barely finishing the thought when there was a knock on his office door.Without looking up, he barked, “Come in.”His personal assistant, a sharp-suited young man named Ethan, stepped inside, looking slightly uneasy. “Sir, Jeffrey and Adelaide Carnegie are here to see you.”Dominic’s eyes snapped up, his fingers pausing mid-flip on the document he was barely reading. He stared at Ethan, his expression unreadable at first, then filled with unmistakable irritation.“Do they have an appointment?” he asked, his voice cool.“No, sir.”Dominic’s jaw ticked
