Chapter 71

Sunday mornings had always been Luca's favorite.

The city was quieter, the roads less crowded, and for a few precious hours, his phone rarely rang. It was usually the one morning every week he allowed himself to slow down.

Today, however, the silence was anything but comforting.

He walked into the kitchen, loosened the sleeves of his gray sweater, and reached into the cabinet without thinking.

His hand stopped midway.

There were two mugs in his hand.

For a long moment, he stared at t

  • Claimed By The MC President After One Night Stand   chapter 90

    Chapter 90Friday afternoons had a peculiar effect on the prosecutor's office.The frantic pace that usually defined the workweek softened ever so slightly as people hurried to wrap up pending files before the weekend. Phones rang less frequently, secretaries chatted a little longer by the coffee machine, and even the sternest prosecutors looked as though they could finally see the finish line.Inside the NorthStar conference room, however, nothing had changed.Case files still covered half the table.Maps still occupied the whiteboard.The same photographs stared back at them from the evidence wall.Jade dropped his pen onto the table with an exaggerated groan before dramatically leaning back in his chair."I have an important announcement."No one looked up.Freya continued typing.Luca turned another page in the shipping manifest.Gina highlighted a paragraph in one of the financial reports.Jade cleared his throat."Ahem."Still nothing.He slapped the table."I said, I have an i

    Chapter 89The drive back from Blackridge Risk Consultants was unusually quiet.Rain clouds had gathered overhead once again, casting long shadows across the city streets as traffic crawled through the afternoon rush.Jade was the first to break the silence."So..."He looked at Freya from the rearview mirror."You've officially become the only person I know who can find clues in company photographs."Freya laughed softly."I wasn't looking for clues.""They just... stood out.""That's the strange part," Jade admitted. "Most people would've looked at the executives.""You looked at the background."Freya rested her elbow against the window."I don't really know why."Luca glanced at her for a brief moment before returning his attention to the road."You notice patterns."She smiled faintly."I guess.""No."His voice was calm but certain."You do.""It isn't luck."Gina sat beside Jade in the back seat, listening without saying a word.She turned her gaze toward the passing buildings

    Chapter 88The next morning, the NorthStar task force gathered earlier than usual.The conference room lights had barely flickered on before Jade wheeled in a whiteboard covered with fresh printouts."I have good news," he announced as he dropped a thick folder onto the table.Freya looked up from her notebook."That smile worries me.""It should.""I finally found something the shell companies forgot to erase."Luca, who had just walked in carrying his customary black coffee, set the cup on the table before taking his seat."Let's hear it."Jade connected his laptop to the projector, and within seconds a spreadsheet filled the screen."Last night I stopped looking at the companies."He clicked to the next slide."I started looking at their insurance policies."Gina's eyebrows lifted with interest."Insurance?""Think about it," Jade replied. "A fake company can disappear overnight, but warehouses, vehicles, and cargo still need insurance. Somebody has to pay those premiums."Freya le

    Chapter 87The barbecue lunch that Luca had promised never happened.Instead, Jade somehow convinced everyone to stop at a small diner a few blocks from the Attorney General's office, insisting they would "think better on full stomachs."The place wasn't fancy.It had mismatched chairs, checkered tablecloths, and the comforting aroma of grilled meat drifting in from the open kitchen."It's not exactly five-star dining," Jade admitted as they settled into a booth."But their burgers might change your life."Freya laughed."That's a bold claim.""I've made riskier ones."Luca glanced at the menu."You're paying if they're disappointing."Jade looked horrified."I suddenly regret recommending this place."The waitress approached with a bright smile."What can I get you?"Jade ordered without even opening the menu."The usual."Freya tilted her head."You come here often?""The owner knows my name.""That answers my question."Luca looked at Freya."What are you having?"She studied the m

    Chapter 86The conference room was unusually quiet the following morning.No one had slept much.The progress briefing with the Attorney General's office was less than an hour away, and every member of the NorthStar task force was determined to walk in with something more substantial than theories.Freya stood before the evidence board, her notebook tucked beneath one arm as she carefully rearranged several photographs.She took a step back.Then another."No..."She murmured to herself before moving one of the shipping routes to the opposite side of the board.Luca looked up from the stack of financial reports he had been reviewing."You've changed that map three times."Freya tilted her head."I know.""You don't sound convinced.""I'm not."She walked closer to the board again, studying every photograph until her eyes settled on the image of the white delivery van."It still feels incomplete."Jade leaned back in his chair."You're beginning to sound like the boss."Freya looked ov

    Chapter 85The first hour of working together passed with surprising ease.Four desks had been pushed together in the conference room, creating one large workstation where files, laptops, photographs, and coffee cups competed for space.The silence wasn't uncomfortable.It was the kind that naturally settled over people concentrating on the same problem.Every few minutes, someone would ask a question.Someone else would answer.Then the room would fall quiet again.Freya highlighted another transaction before sliding the ledger toward Gina."I can't make sense of these payments."Gina adjusted her glasses and studied the page."They aren't payments."Freya looked up."They're reimbursements."She pointed to a series of identical figures."Look at the intervals."Freya followed her finger.Every transfer occurred exactly twenty-eight days apart.Not twenty-seven.Not twenty-nine.Twenty-eight.Luca leaned over Gina's shoulder."A payroll cycle."Gina nodded."Except the recipients are

    Chapter 16Freya slumped into the sofa, burying her head in the pillow as her shoulders shook.She felt like cursing at the whole world, but words failed her.Issa came over with a cup of hot coffee and gently rubbed her best friend's back."Babe, why are you letting that jerk get to you? I thought

    Chapter 4Freya’s hand froze on the doorknob, and the other tightly held her lips to prevent a sob from escaping.She could not believe that the man she had been with for five years was actually the one in that room.‘No. This can’t be right. I must be mistaken. Nico loves me so much, and there is

    Chapter 3Five years later.It had been five years since Freya woke up with no knowledge of who she really was. But it no longer bothered her. Even with all the chaos, she had found a family that truly loved her for who she was.Today was her third wedding anniversary with her husband, Nico Moreno.

    Chapter 2Beep.Beep.Beep.The slow beeping of machines echoed in Freya’s ears.Her eyelids felt heavy as she forced them open.Bright light stabbed into her vision, making her instinctively close her eyes. After a while, she blinked several times before she could focus.White ceiling.White walls
