RENATO MARINO

One thing I hated most in the world was being ignored.

Or, maybe not.

Maybe what I hated most was being treated like I didn't matter, or not? But I sure as hell hated it when a toy was playing hard to get, and that's exactly what Jayce had been doing.

My back ached from sitting in the same position all day, staring at my phone in hand with my legs bouncing restlessly under the office table.

It had been well over two days since I'd called that little bastard, and two days since I'd been ignored. He never came, never heard from him.

Maybe I wouldn't have been so enraged if he'd called, maybe given me a good reason why he couldn't come. Or would it have been better if he'd asked me to come to him instead?

Would that have been better than being ignored like my words were nothing... like I didn't matter to him?

"Fuck!" I cursed, typing out a quick message and letting my thumb hover over the send icon, wondering if I really wanted to do this.

What would that make me if

Well Ren' is on the war path, clearly therapy isn't working. Hopefully the truth about his family & creepy comes out. The question is why hasn't Jay shown up for 2 days, something isn't right as he said he wasn't moving out so why empty, I have a bad feeling that Dark & I will be falling out.

I guess Renato is going to find out about Jayce' nephew being ill along with him being married. Is Ren seeing a therapist because of his obsessive behavior or because of his past love that he lost, and who betrayed him?

    JAYCE BECKETT I had never been so utterly, soul-crushingly conflicted in my entire life. As I slowly stood up from the seat after Chief Strand had dismissed me, I felt like I was making a catastrophic choice, one that would irreparably shatter Renato's very existence. The weight of the decision I was forced to make crushed me, suffocating my lungs, making it hard to breathe. Even though I knew this was supposed to be for the best, my conscience screamed in protest. How would I face Renato now, knowing I had just orchestrated his downfall? How would I possibly go home to him now, sleep next to him at night, and pretend like I hadn't just sealed his fate? The thought alone made my stomach churn with revulsion. My heart was beating at a glacial pace, and I felt like I was on the verge of collapse, my legs trembling beneath me like fragile twigs. I pushed the door open, walking out of the office, but my legs halted abruptly as I saw Cole standing there, a smug, self-satisfied grin

    JAYCE BECKETT I could feel a pair of piercing eyes burning a hole into my back, like a thousand suns scorching my skin. My back stiffened, my hands trembling violently as I frantically worked my buttons, tucking my shirt in with a sense of urgency before grabbing my jacket. I was totally ignoring the man who had been grumbling behind me since the crack of dawn, when I'd told him I had to make a quick visit to the office. "Seriously? Can't you just skip it?" Renato finally deigned to speak, his voice laced with disapproval, making me let out a deep, exasperated breath. "I already told you, I need to go." I said, my voice firm, without even bothering to turn around and face him. I could practically feel his eyes rolling so hard they'd get stuck that way."But you look like you're about to collapse from exhaustion," he growled, his voice dripping with concern. I bit down hard on my lower lip to suppress a grin, as if I had already knew that bastard was going to use that as an excu

    RENATO MARINO Sometimes, I couldn't shake the feeling that I'd committed some unforgivable sin, and that's why the universe was conspiring against me with such relentless cruelty. How was I supposed to process the fact that my entire life had been a lie? Everything I thought I knew were all lies, and the people I'd looked up to my whole life turned out to be the very embodiment of everything I'd always hated. It made me feel like a despicable hypocrite, a fucking pretender. I was consumed by self-doubt, questioning the authenticity of every experience, every relationship. Was anything in my life even real?"Where are you taking me?" I demanded, my voice cracking as I struggled to hold back tears, Renato's firm grip on my wrist like a vice as he dragged me out of his office. "I think you need some fresh air," he said softly, his tone infuriatingly calm. "No, I don't!" I snarled, trying to wrench my hand free, but he was too strong. "Fuck that!" I spat, my anger boiling over."Yo

    RENATO MARINO Ever since Jayce asked me to investigate Mikhail, I'd had a gut-wrenching feeling that he suspected the unthinkable: that Mikhail might be the one who brutally murdered his parents. I was determined to dig up every last shred of evidence, to uncover the truth that damn bastard had desperately buried. But nothing, NOTHING, could have prepared me for the earth-shattering revelation I stumbled upon. Hours of pouring over the files left me reeling in shock, my mind struggling to comprehend the horrific truth. How could this be?!Jayce's eyes were fixed on me, his heart pounding in his chest like a jackhammer, his entire being quivering with anticipation as he waited for me to deliver the devastating blow. I knew this would shatter his world, and I desperately wished I could shield him from the pain, convince him to let go, to stop obsessing over his parents' killer.But I knew it was futile. I had to reveal the truth, yet I was left to find a way to soften the blow, to

    JAYCE BECKETT I had just finished pouring over the files, meticulously reviewing every detail of my parents' accident in the hopes of uncovering something I might have missed, but to my dismay, there was nothing new to discover. The disappointment was very glaring.Just as I was about to let out a frustrated sigh, my phone's shrill ringtone pierced the air, shattering the silence. I reached into my pocket and retrieved the phone, my eyes scanning the screen before I swiftly answered the call from Renato. Just thinking about it now, I realize I haven't seen him for the past few hours. He wasn't in the room when I got back from eating brunch.I pushed the files to one side, walking out of the room and closing the door."Yes?" I sighed into the phone, my tone laced with a mixture of exhaustion and annoyance for wasting hours going through the old files without getting anything."Would you like to come over to my..."Before Renato could utter more than a few words, my gaze was drawn to
