Melissa’s POV

Three days had passed since the pool incident.

I have been trying to avoid Gavin the same way I have been doing but I have been failing miserably.

I’d touched myself that night. And the night after, I closed my mouth with my palm as I fucked myself thinking about him. About the way he’d looked at me with water dripping from his hair, his eyes burning with something I didn’t want to name.

I was ashamed to admit it, even to myself.

But my body didn’t care about shame. It remembered his touch, and craved it in ways that made me feel dirty and desperate and alive all at once. I fear I was becoming a slut.

Tonight, I pushed those thoughts away. Tonight was Aria’s art exhibition, and I needed to be there for her.

I stood in front of my mirror, smoothing down the black slip dress I’d chosen. It was simple but elegant…thin straps, silk fabric that skimmed my body and ended mid-thigh. I paired it with strappy heels and left my hair down in loose waves.

I grabbed my clutch and he

    Sophia’s POVI leaned in closer, my lips touching his ear seductively.“Come home, Gavin,” I whispered. “Come home to me. To us. To where you belong.”“The both of you absolutely irritate me.”Gavin’s voice cut through the music like a blade. He reached for his water glass, lifting it to his lips in a way that made my skin prickle. He took a sip, set it down, and the cup made barely a sound against the table.Everything about him was calm and controlled, like a coiled spring waiting for the perfect moment to release.“And you keep pushing me to the wall again and again.”Giovanni shifted beside me, his rings catching the dim light as he swirled his brandy. He was smiling, but I could see the tension in his jaw. He thought he had the upper hand here. We both did.We were wrong.Gavin placed his palm over his face, rubbing his temples like we were giving him a headache. For a moment, just a moment, I thought maybe we were getting through to him. That the pressure was finally showing cra

    Melissa’s POVI’d been having the most fun today, but something was off with Gavin.I didn’t know what exactly…he’d been attentive, sweet even, taking me everywhere I wanted to go. But there was something in his eyes. A heaviness. A shadow that hadn’t been there this morning. Or maybe it had always been there, and I was just now seeing it clearly.“Where else do you want to go?” he asked as we drove through the city, the sun was starting to dip below the skyline.I smiled at him. “I think we can call it a day today. I’m excited about the tournament coming up soon and I have some work to take care of.”“I’m sad about it,” Gavin said, his voice dropping to a much more sad and quiet tone.I turned to look at him fully. “Why?”“After the tournament, it’s around the same time you’ll be done with your internship, right?”“Yes,” I said slowly, not understanding where this was going.“And then you’ll graduate. And move on to whatever comes next.”“But we’re in the same house, aren’t we?” I fr

    Gavin’s POVThe drive to the airport was quiet. Diana sat in the passenger seat, with her hands folded in her lap, staring out the window. I kept my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel, the other resting on the gear shift.Traffic was light this early in the morning. The city was just beginning to wake up…streetlights still glowing against the pale dawn sky, a few early commuters on the sidewalks.I pulled up to the departures terminal and put the car in park.The two guards I’d assigned were already waiting, they stood at a respectable distance.I got out and took her suitcase from the trunk. When I turned, Diana was standing beside the car, with her coat wrapped tight around her, that bright smile firmly in place.“Thank you for driving me,” she said.I set the suitcase down beside her. “Be safe. Please. And if you need anything…anything at all…you can call me.”“I will.” Her smile softened. “I promise.”She leaned in to kiss me.I turned my face away.Her lips caught my cheek i

    Aria’s POVThe door closed behind Melissa and Gavin, leaving the apartment in sudden quiet.I stood there for a moment, my arms still warm from where Melissa had hugged me, my eyes still wet from crying.“He loves her,” I said softly to the empty space where they’d been standing.“Yes.”I turned to find Kane watching me from his position by the window. His expression was unreadable as always, but something in his eyes was softer now.“Gavin didn’t know how to love,” Kane continued, his voice quiet. “I’m happy he’s freeing himself from all the walls he built.”He paused, his gaze distant.“Although she’s now his greatest weakness.”The words hung heavy in the air. Kane’s lips curved into something that might have been a smile, but it looked sad. Like he understood the weight of what loving someone truly meant in their world. A world I don’t think I’ll ever really understand. I wiped away one last tear and turned to face him fully.“Are you really planning to keep me here?” I asked.He

    Melissa’s POVIn the hallway, I finally let out the breath I’d been holding.My chest felt tight. I remember what Jason told me, but he kind of made it seem like Gavin was heartless, but I choose to trust Gavin.“She’ll be fine.”“Will she?” I asked quietly.“Yes.” His thumb brushed across my knuckles. “Kane is… difficult. But he’s good at what he does. And what he does is protect people.”“He barely knows her.”“Sometimes that doesn’t matter.” His blue eyes met mine. “Sometimes you just know.”I thought about the party where we’d first met. The kiss that had started everything. The way my entire world had tilted the moment our eyes met.“Yeah,” I whispered. “Sometimes you just know.”He pulled me closer, pressing a kiss to my forehead. “Trust me, Piccola. She’s safer with Kane.”I wanted to believe him. I needed to believe him.“Give me a second,” I said, pulling away gently.His eyebrow raised. “Melissa…”“Just one second. Please, my love.”He studied my face for a moment, then nodde

    Melissa’s POVWe all settled into the living room…Gavin and me on one couch, Aria curled up on the other, Kane standing by the window like a sentinel.The tension in the room was thick as fuck “Someone needs to start explaining,” I said again, looking between all of them. “Right now.”Kane turned from the window, his expression unreadable. “I’ve been following you around because of your safety.”I blinked. “My safety?”“Yes.”“Why would I need…” I stopped, looking at Gavin. His jaw was tight, his eyes fixed on some point across the room. “Gavin?”He took a breath, then finally looked at me.“There are five families,” he said quietly. “A group made from the richest, most powerful families in the world. They control governments. Industries, Let's just say they are real world powers. They operate in shadows, but their influence touches every corner of global power.”I uncrossed my legs, then crossed them again, settling in properly. This was going to be complicated.“Okay,” I said slowly
