RADIEL

The call ended with a sharp beep, and I slowly lowered the phone from my ear. For a moment I simply stared at the dark screen, replaying Elyra’s voice in my head.

She had tried to sound calm, but I could hear the irritation hiding under her words. It was subtle, but it was there. That tiny edge in her tone.

I leaned back in my seat and laughed quietly.

“So she’s annoyed,” I murmured to myself. “She really must love my absence.”

My mind drifted to the scandal which had her name dragged in

  • Claimed By My Ex’s Rival   Chapter 56

    ELYRA.The sharp ringing of the alarm dragged me out of sleep like someone pulling a blanket off my body in the middle of winter.I groaned and buried my face deeper into the pillow, hoping the sound would magically stop on its own. It didn’t. The shrill noise kept echoing through the quiet room, stabbing into my head again and again.“Ugh… shut up already,” I muttered.With a loud hiss of annoyance, I reached out blindly toward the nightstand and smacked the alarm until the sound finally died. Silence returned to the room, and for a moment I just lay there, breathing slowly, trying to reclaim the peaceful warmth of sleep I had just lost.It didn’t come back.Grumbling under my breath, I forced my eyes open and glanced toward the clock.My brain took a second to process what I was seeing. Then I shot upright.“Almost eleven?!”My voice cracked in disbelief. I rubbed my eyes, thinking maybe I was still half-dreaming, but the time stayed the same.Eleven in the morning.“Great,” I groan

    RADIELThe night finally went quiet when Elara fell asleep in my arms.I looked down at her face. The light from the bedside lamp fell gently across her features, soft and warm. A small crease appeared between her brows every few seconds, like her mind was still fighting something even in sleep.I sighed quietly.“Poor thing…” I murmured.Carefully, I shifted my arms under her. She stirred slightly but didn’t wake up. I pulled my arm from underneath her then I pulled the duvet over her shoulders, tucking it in carefully so she wouldn’t get cold. The air conditioner hummed softly in the background. I walked to the wall and adjusted the temperature a little lower.The last thing she needed was to wake up sick after everything she had been through tonight.When I turned back, she had scrunched her face again in that same troubled way.My chest tightened.I knew the whole incident must have shaken her badly. Anyone would have been terrified in that situation.Elyra tried to act strong mos

    ELYRA.The gunshot cracked through the cold night like a piece of glass shattering.For a moment I didn’t even understand what had happened. The sound echoed in my ears while the world around me seemed to slow down. Before I could turn to look at Radiel, he slammed his foot on the brakes. The tires screeched loudly against the wet road as the car spun around in a sharp turn.My heart jumped into my throat.In seconds we were heading back the way we had come.I was still trying to process the fact that Radiel had just fired a gun when I saw the man again, stepping out from behind my car.The streetlight barely touched him, but I could clearly see that Radiel’s shot had hit him. One of his shoulders was hanging strangely, and blood darkened the fabric of his jacket. But the injury hadn’t stopped him.If anything, it had made him angrier.“You bastards!” he roared, his voice rough with rage.My stomach dropped when I saw the gun in his hand.Even with one arm injured, he raised the weapo

    ELYRA.My hands trembled slightly on the steering wheel as I stared through the cracked window beside me. The thin fractures ran across the glass like spiderwebs, spreading slowly from the point where the man had struck it earlier.Each crack looked like a reminder that things were getting worse.I swallowed hard.Outside, the man stood a few steps from my car, breathing heavily. The faint glow from a nearby streetlamp revealed his shadow stretching across the lonely road. His eyes were fixed on me like a predator that had already decided its prey wasn't escaping.My chest tightened.He lifted the metal bar and slammed it against the window again. The sound shot straight through my bones.I flinched, pressing myself deeper into the seat.The cracks grew larger.A few more hits like that and the glass would shatter completely.My mind raced wildly. There was nowhere to run. The road behind me was empty for miles, and the forest lining both sides of the road looked darker than usual ton

    ELYRAThe rain had started as a soft drizzle when I left the office, but now it had turned into something else entirely. It was heavy, relentless, pounding against the roof like thousands of tiny fists. The road still looked lonely and empty, and the few streetlights that worked barely cut through the darkness.I sat in the driver's seat with my head ducked low, my eyes barely peeking over the steering wheel. The windscreen was covered with thick streams of rainwater, making everything outside look warped and distant. Every shadow seemed to move.My hands were shaking so badly that I had to press them against my thighs to steady them.“Calm down, Elyra,” I whispered to myself, though my voice trembled.I shouldn't have stayed late at the office. I knew that now.A sudden crack of thunder made me jump. My hand jerked, and I accidentally pressed something on the car key fob.The next second, my car alarm exploded into the night.The loud, sharp blaring made my heart slam against my ribs

  • Claimed By My Ex’s Rival   Chapter 51

    ELYRAI kept telling myself there was nothing to be afraid of.It was just a quiet road. That was all.People drove through lonely roads every day. Cars broke down sometimes. It didn’t mean anything terrible was going to happen. I repeated those thoughts in my head like a small prayer while I stood beside my car, staring down the empty stretch of road ahead of me.But the sky above me had other plans.Just moments ago, the night had looked normal—dark, but manageable. Now the clouds were gathering thick and heavy, swallowing the last bits of light like a curtain being drawn across the world. The wind picked up, rustling the tall grass that lined the road, making it whisper and sway in ways that made my skin crawl.“Oh, Lord,” I whispered to myself.The words sounded weak even to my own ears.I had been standing there for several minutes, hoping another car would pass. Hoping anyone would pass. But the road remained empty. Not a single pair of headlights appeared in the distance.The s
