Breaking The Spotlight Chapter 203 - The Fire Between Us
The storm hadn’t moved on, instead, it had embedded itself into the retreat compound, curling through the eaves and windows like smoke, a living weight pressing on every surface, every breath. Thunder rolled across the mountains, a low, relentless rumble that made the walls shiver, and lightning arced across the sky with violent indifference. Inside, the candles guttered, half spent, casting long, wavering shadows that pooled in corners and twisted across the polished floors.Valerie stood near the window, her hand pressed to the cool glass, watching the rain streak down the panes. She could feel the lingering heat of what had passed between them, in her chest, the magnetic ache that hadn’t yet settled. Every nerve in her body was alight, every heartbeat a drumbeat in the dark. And yet she was aware of Sebastian behind her, the space between them charged as if the storm had moved inside the walls as well.He did not speak. He did not move. He was just there, leaning lightly against t
Breaking The Spotlight Chapter 202 - You At The Center
That night the storm hit the retreat compound with a ferocity that mirrored the chaos in Valerie’s mind. Rain hammered against the roof, a relentless percussion, and wind twisted the trees outside into jagged shadows that scraped the windows.Inside, the lights had gone out hours ago. Candles were the only illumination, casting uneven glows that painted walls with dancing menace. Shadows clung to corners, hiding everything, revealing only fragments.Valerie moved carefully across the floor, her boots silent on the polished wood. Every nerve was taut, every sense sharpened. The revelation from Sebastian still reverberated in her chest: her uncle. Lucien Sinclair. This wasn’t just betrayal, this was history rewritten without her consent, an enemy hiding in the familiar folds of her own family.Sebastian stood near the fireplace, hands in his pockets, jaw tight, the candlelight catching the planes of his face in sharp relief. He didn’t speak, he had already absorbed enough for both of th
Breaking The Spotlight Chapter 201 - Say The Name
Valerie didn’t sleep, sleep felt like a luxury. She lay in her darkened room, replaying everything that had happened.In the adjacent room, Sebastian, too, was having difficulty with sleep. The night had stretched into something hard and watchful, every sound in the apartment amplified by what waited in the morning. Headlines. Boardrooms. Blood in the water. Valerie replayed Sebastian’s last words until they stopped sounding like strategy and started sounding like warning."You still haven’t told her who signed the order."She was puzzled because she had no clue as to what order was being referred to, but she knew one thing: men didn’t hide names unless they could detonate lives.By the time the sun lifted over Paris, Valerie was already dressed in black and her outfit meant business, whatever was going down today she was taking it head-on. She walked into the kitchen to find Sebastian there before her, sleeves rolled, phone in hand, jaw set in that way she recognized now, not def
Breaking The Spotlight Chapter 200 - Letting You Hit Me
The apartment was too quiet for what was burning inside of Valerie Sinclair.Paris still clung to the windows, slate sky, rain-smeared glass. The city held its breath the way it always did when something ugly was about to break. Her phone lay abandoned on the kitchen counter, screen dark now, but the damage had already been done. She'd listened to the recording four times.The first time in disbelief. The second time with nausea crawling up her throat. The third time with fury sharp enough to hurt. The fourth time with something colder.Sebastian's voice filled her head even now. Edited. Trimmed. Stripped of context. But unmistakably his. “She doesn’t need to know everything. She never has.”“Perception matters more than intention.”“People fall in love with what they’re allowed to see.”The cut was surgically brutal. Designed to wound.Larissa didn’t release the full recording, only enough to make him look calculating, cruel, almost amused. The headlines had detonated within minut
Breaking The Spotlight Chapter 199 - This Stops Being Theoretical
The gala, held at a private estate, was designed to feel untouchable. An event that was by invitation-only. Black cars glided through wrought-iron gates like they belonged there. Crystal light spilled across marble floors polished to the point of reflection. No banners. No press banners. No chaos. Only power.Valerie stepped out of the car with practiced ease, Eclipse’s insignia catching the light along the curve of her wrist. She wore a black, bare shoulder, dress, the kind that didn't asked to be noticed, the architectural kind that commanded as she entered. Sebastian emerged a second later, and immediately everyone perceived the dynamic duo. He took his place by her side, not touching, not offering an arm, but his presence beside her said volumes. “Remember,” he murmured, low enough that only she could hear, “this room feeds on hesitation.”Valerie smiled without looking at him. “Then it’s going to starve.”They entered the ballroom side by side. The Eclipse team spread natur
Breaking The Spotlight Chapter 198 - From Warning To Ultimatum
The villa lights came on, automatically, one by one.Inside, warmth replaced the night air, but the tension followed them in, clinging like static.Valerie didn’t take off her heels, she didn't pur herself a drink, she slowly moved through the open space, as if each step needed to remind the room who owned it.Sebastian closed the terrace doors behind them. The soft seal sounded louder than it should have.“You should’ve deleted the photo,” he said.She stopped mid-step. Didn’t turn, byt responded, “no, I should know who wanted me to see it.”“That’s not the same thing.”“It is when they want control.” She finally faced him, arms crossing. “You don’t threaten someone like me unless you’re trying to steer the reaction.”“You’re assuming this is about leverage.”“I’m assuming it’s about proximity,” she said. “No one shoots that angle by accident.”“They wanted you unsettled,” he said, his tone taut. “They got that much.”Her mouth curved faintly. “Don’t confuse unsettled with unprepared
