Victor Laurent’s words lingered like poison in the air.

“Tell me, Vienne… which matters more to you? Saving your husband… or saving your mother?”

For the first time since walking into Vane Tower, I was completely confused. Sincerely, I didn’t know what to do.

My hands curled into tight fists. I turned to Marissa and Cassandra, my chest heaving. “You locked them in.”

Aunt Marissa cut in. “Mind your tone, Vienne. I may have stayed silent, but I’m still your elder.”

Her voice was cold eno

  • Contract With My Hidden Enemy    Chapter Fifty Nine: No Time To Heal

    The explosion shook the entire hospital. The walls trembled. Glass vibrated inside the window frames, and every light in the intensive care unit flickered once before switching to the red emergency backup system. The steady rhythm of my heart monitor suddenly competed with the wail of the evacuation alarms. BEEP… BEEP… BEEP… Outside my room, chaos erupted. The double doors clicked shut as the trauma team finally stepped back to give my body room to breathe, leaving only that rhythmic beep... beep... beep while sirens screamed down the hallway. The trauma team exchanged uneasy glances before several of them rushed into the corridor to find out what had caused the explosion, leaving only two doctors and a nurse to monitor me. Lena and Julian stepped inside to watch over me. I heard their hushed voices—that was how I knew. They weren’t bothered much about what was happening down there; they were only bothered about me. Every muscle in my body felt like it had been shre

    The shrill alarm swallowed every other sound in the room. “She’s crashing!” The lead doctor lunged toward the monitor, his gloved hands moving with practiced urgency. “Pulse dropping!” “Eighty…” “Sixty…” “Forty…” The high-pitched monitor kept its continuous shrieking, tearing through my darkness like a physical blade. “Clear!” A violent shock slammed into my chest. My body jerked hard off the mattress, pain exploding behind my eyes before I collapsed back onto the sheets. “Still no pulse! Charge to two-fifty!” I couldn't move. I couldn't open my eyes. But I felt his large hands scrambling over my face even through the chaos, his other hand gripping my freezing fingers so tightly that it hurt. He didn’t even realize he was hurting me. Silas didn't leave my side. His voice cracked right beside my ear—a broken whisper that sounded nothing like the ruthless man the world feared. Now the darkness became even darker. No… Not again. I had just found him. I had ju

  • Contract With My Hidden Enemy    Chapter Fifty Seven: The Worst Scenario

    Something inside me answered… but it wasn’t to Silas. It was a fragment of my nightmare. Inside the suffocating, heavy dark of my mind, I was a little child. Five years old. Maybe six. The rain was slamming against the shattered glass of the backseat—cold, wet, and smelling of gasoline, smoke, and spilled oil. My chest felt completely crushed. I could hear the terrible, haunting silence coming from the front seat where my parents lay motionless. I tried to scream, but my throat was clogged with copper-tasting blood and pure terror. Then, through the smashed window, a young man’s face appeared in the dark. He couldn’t have been more than twenty or twenty-one. His dark hair was soaked with rain, a sharp cut on his cheek bleeding into his collar. His hands were trembling violently as he reached through the shattered frame of my dad’s car. “Hey... look at me,” his voice broke, a desperate, young voice trying so hard to sound strong. He reached in and grabbed my cold fingers, wrapp

    Darkness. It wrapped around me so completely that I couldn’t tell whether my eyes were open or closed. There was no physical pain. There were no voices. In fact, I wasn’t feeling anything at first. I couldn’t even feel Silas holding me. The exhaustion was just too much. Then… a tiny voice echoed somewhere ahead of me in the dark. “Vienne! Vienne, look at me!” Her voice broke, a terrifying, panicked sound that tore through the quiet room. That was Lena. Her voice was the very first sound that broke through the dead silence in my head. I could feel her dropping hard onto one knee, pulling me flush against her chest. My head rolled uselessly against her chest. I could feel all of it. I could hear them completely. But I just couldn’t open my eyes or utter a single word, and I couldn't understand why my body was refusing to obey me. “Silas, we have to move!” Lena yelled, her hands trembling as she reached out, terrified to touch me again. “She’s fading!” Silas didn't answer he

    Cassandra’s cold, triumphant smile widened as her four armed guards stepped forward, foolishly ready to throw us out. My heart slammed painfully against my ribs. “Security… detain them.” Hearing that command come out of Cassandra’s mouth was infuriating. Silas didn't hesitate for a single second. He stepped squarely in front of me, his massive frame completely blocking me from her view, his hand resting lethal and steady near his belt. Behind us, Lena gasped, taking a gradual step back toward Julian. “You’re making a severe mistake, Cassandra,” Silas said, his voice dropping into a tone so dangerously low it sent a chill down my spine. “Where are Elias and Elena? I asked again.” He sounded genuinely dangerous this time. “I told you before, Silas,” Cassandra purred, her eyes glittering with fake warmth. “I don’t repeat myself.” Julian let out a loud, sudden scoff. Every eye in the foyer snapped toward him. Cassandra’s dark brows pulled together in annoyance. “Something funny,

  • Contract With My Hidden Enemy    Chapter Fifty Four: The fate after Rescue

    “Julian?” My mother’s trembling voice echoed through the cold corridor. Every single one of us turned at the exact same time. The emergency lights continued to flash red across the concrete walls, throwing long shadows over the hallway beyond the vault. At first, there was no one there. I almost thought my mom was hallucinating from the lack of oxygen. But after a few seconds, Julian stepped fully out of the shadows, his arms crossed casually over his chest. His face was cold and arrogant, his sharp jaw set tight as he looked at us like we were nothing more than an inconvenience. In a split second, Silas shoved me behind his broad shoulder, his hand going straight toward his pocket, his dark eyes lethal. “Don't move, Julian.” Julian scoffed, a smirk curling his lips. “Put the gun away, Silas. You look ridiculous.” Silas rolled his eyes. “You’re always so worried about my sister,” Julian added, his smirk widening. “She is my sister, remember? And I wasn’t planning to hurt h
