Selene’s POV The house was calm when I stepped out of Aria's room. I walked through the passageway, it stretched before me, the grand chandelier above dimmed to a low golden hue, like the house knew it was supposed to be asleep. My footsteps were soft, barely a making a sound over the tiled floors. I hadn’t planned on leaving this way, not exactly. But there was no good way. No easy way. Just a door and a decision. I wrapped Dominic’s coat tighter around me, more for warmth, and moved with careful determination toward the main entrance. But when I reached the edge of the landing that overlooked the grand living room, I froze. He was there. Seated on the sleek black couch with his legs crossed, his fingers steepled beneath his chin. Still dressed in the dark shirt from earlier, his sleeves rolled up. He looked carved out of from a God, still, calm, and entirely too alert. Like he’d been waiting for me. "Where are you going?" His voice was calm, unhurried. I hesitated. "Rach

Selene’s POVAs soon as the question left my lips, something pierced through the glass of the car. The sound of shattered, ringing in my ears as Dominic immediately swerved us out of harm’s way and drove off. The bulletproof car had done its job, but it felt like the everything was collapsing around us. Again. I didn’t say a word during the drive. Neither did he. The air between us was so thick, it felt like breathing through smoke. I was curled into myself, Dominic’s coat still wrapped tightly around me, his scent oddly comforting despite the storm of emotions thrashing inside me.Few minutes later, we finally pulled up to the estate, his home, I didn’t wait any further. The gates opened and I was already out of the car before it fully stopped. “Where’s Aria?” I asked the first guard I saw. My voice cracked, but I didn’t care. “Second floor, ma’am. Right wing nursery. She’s safe.” Safe. The word rang hollow until I saw her with my own eyes. I bolted up the grand staircase, my l

Selene’s POV The branches tore at my arms like claws as I ran, my breath hitching, my lungs screaming to go faster as the footsteps lunged closer. The leaves wet from the earlier downpour, and every step I took felt like it dragged me deeper into a place I wasn’t going to escape from. My bare feet slipped on the ground, and the taste of blood coated my tongue where I'd bitten down to silence my own sobs. I didn’t know where I was going. I only knew I had to run. For Aria. For myself. For the pieces of Dominic that were finally starting to make sense. But freedom wasn’t meant for women like me. A sharp pain sliced through my temple, I fell down and everything went black. ***** I woke up in a room that smelled like something rotten beneath the surface. My wrists were tied behind me, my legs bound to the arms of a chair, and my skin prickled with the awareness of being watched before I even opened my eyes. Adrian. I didn’t have to see him to know. That presence... oily, smu

Dominic's POV The tires shrieked across the pavement as I pulled up beside the building that matched the coordinates sent to my phone. I stepped out of the car slowly, my coat flaring with the wind. The air around me was humid from the earlier rain—but it did nothing to smother the cold rising inside me. My eyes scanned the silent building ahead. The windows were blacked out, the kind of black that wasn’t just from lack of light but design. Someone didn’t want this place seen from the outside. Bad decision. Selene wasn’t in the car where I left her. No sign of struggle, no sound, no trace—just a faint warmth on the leather seat when I reached for the door earlier, Aria fast asleep in my arms. Now, she was with Enzo. Safe. That was the only part of this entire situation that wasn’t fractured. Adrian. That bastard. Betrayal burned slower than rage. I’d buried my emotions where no one could find them—but this… this was different. The metal door creaked under the weight of m

Dominic's POV I carried Aria out with blood on my hands. Not hers, never hers, but the men who’d thought they could touch her.She was weightless in my arms, her head buried against my chest, trusting, too trusting. The smell of iron still clung to my sleeves. Her tiny fingers curled against my shirt as if she knew it was over, that I’d come. And I had. For her. For Selene. I reached the car and felt something shift in my chest. Off and Wrong. The passenger door was open. Empty. She was gone. Selene was gone. The breath I took didn’t feel real. My grip tightened around Aria as I scanned the road, the tree line. No blood. No signs of struggle. Just… nothing. My jaw clenched hard. I set Aria gently on the back seat, covering her with the thin wool blanket I’d left earlier. She stirred, mumbling something soft and incoherent, still asleep. She didn’t need to see this. My phone buzzed in my pocket. One new message with no name. “If you want her alive, come to the Hartsfield shippin

Selene's POV For a second, I thought I was hallucinating. My body was already shaking from everything Adrian had done or almost done but seeing Lina walk through that door… it knocked the air out of me. Her hair was a mess, her face pale, eyes swollen. She looked nothing like the girl who used to twirl around in my room in high school, stealing my lipstick and whispering things into my ears. No, this woman was scared. And not of me. Of something else. “What… what the hell are you doing here?” My voice cracked as I pushed myself away from the corner of the room, gripping the edge of the wall for balance. Lina’s eyes darted behind her before shutting the door quickly and locking it. “There’s no time, Selene. You need to listen to me.” I scoffed. “Listen to you? After what you did to me?” “I know. I know what I did.” Her voice trembled. “And I regret it every single day. But this isn’t about the past right now. You need to get out of here.” I stared at her. “Why are you here, Lina

Selene POV As soon as I closed the message, the door burst open again without warning. Two men stepped in, those same brutes who had shoved me into the car, their expressions stiff, like machines executing orders. My heart jumped as they approached. I stepped back instinctively, but there was nowhere left to go. “Get up,” one of them barked, gripping my arm without waiting for me to comply. “Don’t touch me—!” I snapped, jerking my arm back. It only earned me a tighter grip.They didn’t bother explaining. They dragged me down the hallway, past the walls and chandeliers that didn’t belong to any place I should be in. It looked more like a luxurious prison than a home, clean, expensive and suffocating. I was shoved into another room, and the door closed behind me with a loud click. And there he was. Adrian. Standing shirtless by a wide mirror, towel slung around his waist. His back was turned to me, his body glistening like he had just stepped out of the shower. Water dripped

Selene's POVForced in, the car sped through the highway like it had something to prove. The tires screeched every time the driver swerved past another vehicle, barely missing the side mirrors. My heart was still pounding from the moment they forced me in, and the man sitting beside me hadn't said a word. He didn’t need to. His silence spoke loud enough, this wasn’t a kidnapping for money.This was personal.I sat frozen, my eyes locked on the tinted window, trying to make sense of the trees and buildings rushing past. But nothing looked familiar. The city gave way to a wide stretch of countryside, and before long, we were pulling up to a large wrought iron gate.The car rolled to a stop as the gate opened on its own. The mansion that rose beyond it was massive, clean-lined, modern. It was too pristine, too polished. Nothing about it felt good.The man finally turned to me. His eyes were still hidden behind dark shades, but the smug lift at the corner of his mouth made my stomach turn

Selene’s POV The tires screamed against the wet asphalt as Dominic veered the car sharply past another intersection, barely missing a black sedan that honked furiously behind us. My hand gripped the door handle so tightly my knuckles turned white. "Dominic," I breathed, my voice barely holding steady, "slow down—" He didn’t answer. His jaw was clenched, eyes razor-focused on the road ahead. The wipers struggled to keep up with the downpour, and every time lightning cracked across the sky, it lit up his face—sharp angles and eyes that looked ready to kill.We weren’t just speeding, we were flying.Another sharp turn. The car tilted slightly, skidding before catching traction again. He handled it with terrifying precision, barely blinking. Not a single wasted movement. I stared at him, my heart pounding for more reasons than the speed. He looked like a man possessed. His phone buzzed against the dashboard. Without looking away from the road, he tapped the screen. A message
