AARON

The city hummed beneath me, but all I could hear was the noise in my own head.

That wasn’t normal.

My mind usually operated like a machine structured, strategic and silent. But lately? It felt like a battlefield. Logic at war with emotion. Control strangling instinct. And always... her. Venus. Like a whisper beneath my skin I couldn’t shut off.

I leaned against the glass wall of my office, the skyline stretching wide, lit like temptation. Below, Manhattan pulsed with its usual rhythm: cyclists cutting through lanes, overworked suits gripping coffee, eyes on their next meeting. To anyone else, it was just another Monday morning.

To me, it felt like the first move in a war I hadn’t declared yet.

My phone buzzed.

I turned back to my desk. The contracts. The board memos. The risk reports. All neatly stacked chaos. But somewhere in the middle of it all, something darker was creeping in. Quiet. Steady. Like rot under gold.

I wasn’t the type to ignore red flags.

But Caroline, Richard,

    AARONThe silence in the office was short-lived.Not even an hour after Ashford left, and I was still standing at the window, staring out over the skyline, trying to process what he’d just said.Sister.He said Venus was his sister.My wife—contractual or not—was the missing sibling of a powerful man I didn’t trust, didn’t like, and now had to consider family by extension.“Jesus,” I muttered, pressing my palm to the glass.Below, the city carried on: traffic weaving through stone arteries, people bustling with purpose, unaware that the axis of my world had just cracked.Connor hadn’t said much after Ashford left. He stood with arms crossed, face unreadable—but I knew that look. It was the one he wore before a hostile takeover. The one he kept when people lied straight to his face in court. Calculating. Cold. Focused.“You believe him?” I asked, finally.Connor’s gaze flicked to mine. “I believe he believes it. Whether it’s true or not... that’s what we’ll find out.”DNA. Proof.Ashf

    AARONThe silence in my office was rare and for once, welcome.No ringing phones. No back-to-back meetings. No crisis clawing at my attention. Just the distant hum of New York City outside, muffled by the thick glass of the penthouse windows. The world below was alive, pulsing and urgent, but in here, for a breath of a moment, it felt like time had stopped.I leaned back in my chair, phone in hand, scrolling through messages I had already read twice, maybe three times. It was ridiculous. Obsessive. But I didn’t care.The last message from Venus sat like warmth in my palm, buzzing under my skin.VENUS: We’re going fabric hunting again. Gianna nearly committed murder in front of a cashmere wall. It was glorious. Also: I didn’t buy anything today. Aren’t you proud? 😌Not that she ever spends my money. I saw the card I gave her laying on my table.ME: That depends. Did you at least threaten to?VENUS: Sabine nearly tackled a vendor over gold thread. I did my part by eating three macaron

    VENUSLondon was… golden.Not in a literal sense—not like Aaron’s penthouse at sunset or the warm gleam of the necklace I still hadn’t taken off—but in a way that settled in your bones. The kind of golden that made you exhale deeper. Softer. Like the world had finally eased its grip on your throat.We’d spent the last few days in a whirlwind: fabric warehouses, artisan showrooms, networking events so polished they practically glowed. Gianna called it “social climbing with sequins.” Sabine called it “war prep.”I called it magic.Because for once… I wasn’t surviving.I was living.Even with the ever-present security detail trailing behind us, I didn’t mind. For the first time, they didn’t feel like shackles. They felt like protection. Like someone, somewhere, cared enough to keep me safe.Sabine’s brand wasn’t just an idea anymore. It was becoming something tangible. Real. Every fitting, every carefully chosen textile, every private preview, it all brought her vision closer to life. An

    VENUSLondon was loud in a different way.Not the car horns and rushed chaos of New York, the kind that wrapped around your throat and made it hard to breathe. No, this city hummed with old power. Stone walls and stories buried beneath centuries of cobblestones. It whispered instead of screamed.And somehow… that made it harder to drown things out.I stood barefoot on the balcony of the villa—Aaron’s villa, I’d found out earlier—and cradled a mug of something too sweet. The kind of drink Gianna made when she didn’t know what to say, just that you needed warmth.The robe I wore wasn’t mine. It was too soft, too expensive, too him. And the breeze that kissed my skin only made the silence feel more intrusive.Gianna had disappeared inside a few minutes ago, muttering about serums and sleep and “not pouting over your emotionally constipated billionaire.”I should’ve laughed.But I didn’t.Because I could still feel him.The press of Aaron’s fingers against the back of my neck.The slow, d

    AARONThe city was never quiet.But tonight, even Manhattan’s chaos—the honking, the distant hum of engines, the blur of voices carried on the wind—faded into something low and far away.Dull. Insignificant.I stood at the edge of my living room, the lights dimmed, a glass untouched in my hand.The skyline stretched out before me like temptation. Like escape.But there was nothing out there I wanted.Only her voice could’ve reached me.My phone buzzed.VENUS:Landed safely. The flight was smooth, and the villa is beautiful.Sorry I didn’t text sooner, London is breathtaking.PS: Sabine said to tell you she’s claiming this one for her birthday in April.I started typing.Paused.Deleted.Typed again.Still wrong.Eventually, I sent:Good. Let me know if anything feels off. Don’t wander alone.And tell Sabine that one is off-limits.She didn’t reply right away.I didn’t expect her to.I turned and headed for the study, each step muffled by the rug she once said was “too expensive to be
