Chapter Thirty-Eight (Caelum's POV)The letter was folded once, tucked beneath the office door like a threat pretending to be polite.I stood there, staring at the seal. The same one I burned out of my father’s journal years ago — a black crest etched with two intertwined serpents and a sword down the center. Thorne blood always bled into legacy and violence. This was both.I opened it with cold fingers.You owe me a debt. You owe me my life.There was no signature. Just that one line. But I knew the handwriting. The way the "y" dipped low. The way the letters tilted like a curse trying to crawl off the page.Revyn Thorne was back.I buried you with my past, I thought. Why are you clawing your way back now?My hands trembled slightly. I folded the letter, slid it into the bottom drawer, and locked it.Ardyn couldn’t know. Not yet.---Flashback: The BetrayalRevyn had been the one person who knew the worst of me and stayed.We grew up in the same hell — same father, different mothers

Chapter Thirty-Seven ArdynIt started with silence. Not the comfortable kind we shared after sex or when his hand found mine under the table. This was heavier. Stretched. Like something unspoken sat between us, thickening the air with every second.Caelum wasn’t cold. He wasn’t angry. But he wasn’t... here either. His body was beside me, still dominant, still possessive in bed, still the same way he always looked at me like I was his to ruin and rebuild again. But something about his eyes? They were far away. Like there was a war I couldn’t see raging just behind them.And I felt it. Like a weight pressing down on my chest.I hadn’t said a word about the name I found days ago. Revyn Thorne. I didn’t even know why it shook me. The paper was old. Torn. But the ink was bold, and the name hit like a scream in a quiet room. I folded it back up and pretended I never saw it.Pretended a lot of things.But pretending only worked for so long.It happened again that morning. Another envelope.

Chapter Thirty-Six Ardyn I woke up still aching, sore in all the best ways. My legs tangled in sheets that still smelled like Caelum, the faintest ache between my thighs a reminder of everything he did to me in the car last night. We didn’t talk after. He just carried me upstairs, silent, cradling me like something fragile. And I let him, too tired to ask what was twisting inside his chest. The mansion had moods. I used to think it was my paranoia, the way the walls creaked differently depending on who was home, the way the hallways felt colder when Caelum avoided me. But today... today it felt like something was watching. Not someone. Something. Caelum had left early, muttering something about a call with an estate attorney. He kissed my shoulder before he left. Said, "Don’t wait up." I waited anyway. Sort of. I wandered. It wasn’t boredom, not really. It was more like... a pulse under my skin. An itch I couldn’t scratch. After the party, after the exhibitionist moment in th

Chapter Thirty-FiveArdyn's Pov I dreamed of a different life last night.It wasn’t the mansion or the brothel. It wasn’t Caelum or anything in between. It was just... me. Standing barefoot in a quiet apartment, the windows cracked open, sunlight pouring in. I was making coffee. There was no collar around my throat. No ghosts in the corners. No eyes watching me like I was something to own.I woke up aching. Not from pain, not even from Caelum’s absence beside me. But from longing.Sometimes I forget I had dreams before all this. Stupid ones, like becoming a baker, or moving to Florence. Sometimes I wonder if the girl I used to be would even recognize me now.I rolled over and stared at the ceiling.He walked in a minute later, dressed in all black, already holding two coffee mugs. “You were frowning in your sleep.”“Maybe I was dreaming of better men.”He set the mugs down, leaned over me, and kissed my forehead. “Impossible.”I hated how easy he made it to forgive him. How his voice

Chapter Thirty-four ArdynI hadn’t cooked a damn thing in years. Not properly. Not without someone barking orders behind me or slapping my hand away when I reached for the salt. But that morning, I woke up with a ridiculous idea in my head: I wanted to cook for him.Caelum.The man who’d once called me a plaything. The same one who now, somehow, kissed me like I mattered and held me like I wouldn’t break.I wanted to do something real. Something soft. Something normal. So I grabbed my phone, searched "easy romantic dinners," and watched three YouTube videos with shaky camera angles and perky American voices before deciding on a spicy shrimp pasta that looked way more doable than it actually was.First problem? I didn’t have half the ingredients.So I threw on a hoodie, tied my hair back, and slipped out the front gates, heart pounding like I was breaking a rule.Halfway down the street, as I debated which store even sold paprika, I heard that voice."Domestic looks good on you."My s

Chapter Thirty-ThreeCaelumMirelle slammed the crystal tumbler onto the edge of my desk. Whiskey spilled down her wrist, but she didn’t flinch. Just stood there in that tailored silk robe like she owned the place—like she owned me."Still playing house with your little maid?"I didn’t look up.She walked around the desk slowly, fingers trailing across the edge. "She’s not even special, Cael. You just need someone to control. And she lets you because she doesn’t know better."I set the pen down, finally meeting her gaze. "She’s more of a woman than you ever were."Mirelle blinked. Her painted lips twitched."You don’t mean that.""I do. And if you knew anything about me, you’d know I stopped lying to myself the day you disappeared."Her laugh was cold. "Don’t pretend I didn’t try to come back. You just made it impossible. You needed someone weaker."I stood."Leave.""You love me," she whispered, stepping closer. Her perfume filled my lungs like poison. "You always have. And you’ll ne
