ADRIEN
The facility still smelled like bleach and despair. I didn’t even make it past the waiting room. The second I saw the therapist’s door, my chest locked, my throat burned, and my legs… yeah, they weren’t cooperating.
Lucien stood beside me, hands in his pockets like he wasn’t dying to drag me in there.
“Adrien—”
“No.” My voice came out hoarse. “I’m not doing this.”
He exhaled. “You came all this way.”
“I came because you asked. Don’t confuse it.” My arms crossed over my chest, but the truth was—I didn’t have the energy to fight. Not with him. Not with myself.
Lucien studied me for a long beat, those calculating Laurent eyes sharp and soft at once. Then he sighed, the kind that sounded like defeat.

CHAPTER 87ADRIENI couldn’t stop pacing. My steps echoed across Lucien’s polished floor, back and forth like a trapped animal. The silence of his house pressed against my ears until I wanted to claw at them.“Adrien.” Lucien’s voice broke the air, calm but firm. “Sit down. You’re wearing yourself thin.”“I can’t,” I snapped, running my hands through my hair. My skin felt like it was crawling. “I can’t just—just sit there. If I stop moving, my head—” I pressed my fists against my temples. “It won’t shut up.”Lucien stood, stepping into my path. He caught my shoulders, steadying me. “Look at me.”I tried, but my eyes slipped away. “I don’t want to. You’ll see it.”“See what?” he asked softly.“The mess,” I whispered. “The cracks. The things that won’t stop coming back.”He squeezed my shoulders. “That’s why you

CHAPTER 85LUCADays bled together.But no Adrien.I hadn’t smiled in weeks. Not once. Not even when Matteo tried to lighten the mood. Not even when Damon cracked a joke.All I felt was hollow. Like someone carved me open and left me to rot.Until tonight.Matteo burst into my office, phone in hand, eyes sharp. “We picked up chatter. A courier mentioned someone fitting his description. North side. Safehouse.”Adrien.The name never left Matteo’s lips, but we both knew.My lips curved before I could stop it. My first smile in days. A small, vicious thing.Finally.“Good,” I murmured, voice low. “Very good.”Matteo studied me. “What do you want me to do?”“Di

CHAPTER 84LUCAIt had been five days since Adrien walked out of my house.Five days of silence.Five days of not hearing his voice, not seeing his face.And I was losing my mind.So I did what I always did when I was unraveling.I killed.“Three convoys. Damian’s routes,” I told Matteo as we sat in the warehouse, the smell of gasoline sharp in the air. “Take them out. No survivors.”His jaw flexed. “Already in motion.”“Good.” My voice was cold, detached. Like I was reading the weather. “Send me what’s left.”Two hours later, they dragged in one.A courier. Young. Early twenties. His hands were zip-tied, his shirt drenched in blood. He stumbled when Damon shoved him into the chair, coughing red onto the concrete.Matteo leaned against the wall, arms crossed. “Three convoys destroyed. Only this one crawled out alive.”Perfect.I walked forward slowly, rolling up my sleeves. The boy looked up at me, wide-eyed, his chest heaving.“Mr. Moretti—please—”The sound of his voice made me smil

CHAPTER 83ADRIENWhen I opened my eyes, the first thing I noticed was how quiet it was.Not peaceful, quiet. No. This was the kind that made your skin crawl. Too heavy. Too empty.The sheets were too soft. The air smelled like polished wood and money. The ceiling was white. Higher than it should be.Not Luca’s place.I stayed there, staring at the ceiling, counting cracks I couldn’t find. My body felt like lead. My chest like it had caved in. I thought about moving—just to prove I could—but the thought was exhausting.“Finally awake?”Lucien’s voice.I turned my head slowly. He was sitting in an armchair near the window, jacket off, sleeves rolled, looking like he’d been there all night. Like he had nothing better to do.I didn’t answer.He stood, crossed the room, and set a tray on the nightstand. The smell hit me—warm food. Eggs. Toast. Soup maybe. My stomach twisted, but not in hunger. More like nausea.“Eat something,” he said.I stared at the tray, then back at him. “No.”His br

CHAPTER 82ADRIENIt was 11:03 p.m.I sat by the window, lights off, heart tight. I’d packed nothing. Not even my phone. Nothing in this house felt like mine. I just waited… watching the gate.Then I saw him.Sleek black SUV. Another car behind it. Windows tinted. No headlights. Silent like a ghost.Lucien.My legs moved before my mind did.I opened the bedroom door quietly. Every step down the hallway sounded too loud. I didn’t care. If they tried to stop me, fine. Let them. I wasn’t staying here another night. Not with Luca. Not after everything.By the time I got outside, Luca’s guards had already surrounded the car.“Who the fuck are you?” one barked at the tall man stepping out of the passenger seat.Lucien. Dressed in black, coat billowing, no smile.“I’m Adrien’s family,” he said calmly. “I’m taking him home.”“No one leaves unless Luca says so,” another guard warned.“I’m not here for permission.”I stepped into the courtyard. The moment Lucien saw me, something in his eyes br
