Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 127: The Shootout Begins
Josie povI stood in the center of the ballroom with the lights dimming low and the final note of the waltz still hanging in the air when the first gunshot cracked through the crowd like thunder splitting the night and chaos erupted all around me guests screaming and scattering in every direction while the consortium’s remaining men opened fire from the edges of the room their bullets shattering mirrors and sending shards of glass raining down like deadly confetti, I stayed calm even as my heart slammed against my ribs because this was the moment we had planned for and I moved through the panic like a queen who had already survived worse directing people toward the exits with sharp clear commands telling them to stay low and head for the side doors while Alexander’s hidden security returned fire from their positions around the ballroom the sharp pops of their weapons cutting through the screams.My red gown swept across the marble as I pushed through the crowd keeping my voice steady
Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 126: Masquerade 2.0
Josie pov I descended the grand staircase of the same ballroom where everything had once nearly ended with the burgundy gown flowing around me like liquid fire and every eye in the room lifting to watch the new undisputed queen of the Hart empire make her entrance the diamond collar and tracker necklace resting heavy against my skin as symbols of the power I had claimed after years of fighting from the frightened widow I used to be to the woman who now set the final trap, the chandeliers cast golden light across the masked faces below and the orchestra played the same slow waltz that had filled this space the night Julian had tried to break me yet tonight the music felt like a victory march because I was no longer the one hiding in the shadows.Alexander waited at the bottom of the stairs his mask simple and dark matching the tuxedo that made him look every bit the king he had become and when I reached him his hand found mine pulling me close enough for me to feel the steady beat of
Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 125: The Invitation
Josie povI stood in the master suite of the New York penthouse with the city lights sparkling far below like distant stars after Martha’s arrest had finally shattered the last piece of the old poison that had lived inside our family for so long and the quiet that followed felt heavier than any battle we had fought because the war was almost over and the only thing left was to end it on our terms, Alexander watched me from the doorway his eyes steady and full of the same fire that had carried us through every city every strike and every loss while we talked about the final move that would bring Julian Victor and Sarah straight into our hands, we decided together to send engraved invitations to a second Hart Masquerade Ball deliberately leaking it as a victory celebration so the three of them would have no choice but to come out of hiding and face the empire they had tried so hard to destroy.I chose an elegant burgundy gown for the night the rich deep color falling like liquid over my
Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 124: The Arrest
Alex povI burst through the drawing room doors with my heart slamming against my ribs the moment I saw Martha raise the gun toward Josie and the twins and the raw terror that had driven me the entire way from the car turned into something cold and precise as I crossed the room in three long strides, my hand shot out grabbing her wrist and twisting hard until the gun clattered to the floor. I slammed her back against the wall in one brutal move pinning her there while Josie rushed forward to the couch where Elias and Noah lay unconscious, I secured the twins first lifting them both into my arms their small bodies limp but breathing and I held them tight against my chest feeling the steady rise and fall that told me they were still with us before I turned back to Martha who was screaming now her face twisted with decades of hate as she spat out every accusation she had held inside for so long.She broke completely in that moment her voice rising into raw shrieks as she admitted she ha
Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 123: Martha’s Confession
Josie povI sat across from Martha with my heart pounding so hard I could feel it in my throat while the twins lay unconscious on the couch beside her their small chests rising and falling in the soft light and every breath I took felt like it carried the weight of every betrayal that had ever happened under this roof, she looked at me with that calm composed smile no longer pretending to be the broken servant who scrubbed floors and begged for mercy but the true matriarch who had waited decades for this moment.I forced my voice to stay steady when I asked her why she had done all this why she had taken my sons when she could have ended it years ago, she leaned forward slightly her eyes gleaming as she admitted she had never broken at all that every floor she scrubbed and every plea she made had been a carefully played act to stay inside the family and watch me steal her sons attention for decades the hatred burning hotter with every year I remained.She told me the hatred had starte
Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 122: The Old Estate
Josie povI pushed through the heavy front doors of the old Hart estate with my heart hammering against my ribs the familiar marble foyer stretching out dark and silent under the faint glow of the emergency lights and every step I took echoed with memories that hit me like cold waves the night I had first walked these halls as Julian’s wife the arguments the betrayals the way Martha had watched me with that quiet disdain that I had mistaken for grief, I moved through the long corridor past the portraits that still hung like silent judges and the flashbacks came fast the boiling water on my skin the night Sarah had cornered me the way the family had closed ranks around Julian while I fought alone and now here I was again walking straight into the same house that had tried to break me only this time my sons were inside and I would not leave without them, the air felt thicker with every breath the scent of old wood and polished silver bringing back the weight of every lie that had been t

Josie’s POVThe drive to the estate took hours, the city lights faded behind us and the road turned narrow and dark. Lily slept in the back seat with her head on a pillow and her bear tucked under her arm. Alexander drove with one hand on the wheel and the other resting on my thigh like he needed
Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle Chapter 97: Sarah Returns
Josie’s POVI lay there with Alexander’s hand wrapped around mine and the babies were still moving in small flutters that told me they were fighting to stay right where they were. I kept my free hand on my stomach like I could hold them in place with sheer will. Alexander hadn’t left my side since
