Melissa’s POV

I stepped back into the penthouse, my skin still tingling with adrenaline, my hands still steady despite what I’d just done.

The warmth hit me immediately after the cold outside. The music, the chatter, the clink of champagne glasses…it all rushed back like I’d been underwater and just broke the surface.

And then I saw Gavin.

He stood near the Christmas tree, a glass in his hand, talking to someone I didn’t recognize. But the moment I walked in, his eyes found mine.

Everything else faded.

The music became distant. The people blurred. The lights dimmed.It was just him and me, locked in this moment across a crowded room.

His blue eyes held mine with an intensity that made my breath catch. There was something in his gaze…concern, curiosity, heat…that made my pulse quicken all over again.

I couldn’t look away. I didn't want to look away from my beautiful perfect man.

For just a moment, the world belonged to only us.

“There you are.”

The sharp voice shattered the spell.

  • Craving My Mother's Hot Fiancé   Chapter 82

    Melissa’s POV“Come here, Melissa.” His voice was quiet. Too quiet.I stood in the doorway, my heart pounding, every instinct in my body screaming at me to run.Gavin sat on the couch in the darkness, illuminated only by the soft glow of the Christmas tree lights. He held a coffee mug in one hand, he looked casual, and very relaxed. But his eyes…those piercing blue eyes…were locked on me with an intensity that made my blood run cold.This wasn’t the Gavin who’d held me gently in the hidden room. This wasn’t the Gavin who’d looked at me with warmth when I opened my Christmas present.This was something else. And he was dangerous.“I… I should go to bed,” I said, my voice coming out shaky. “It’s late and…”“Sit. Down.”The command in his voice made me flinch.I took a hesitant step forward, then stopped. My body was screaming at me. Every nerve. Every instinct.Run.RUN.I’d learned a long time ago to trust that instinct. My father had taught me that before he died…when something feels

    Jason’s POVMy phone buzzed on the nightstand, with the message I got from dad.I grabbed it without opening my eyes, squinting at the bright screen in the darkness, I pushed the brown haired beauty by my side. She mumbled something as she faced the other side and continued her sleep. I sat up immediately. Gavin didn’t send messages at three in the morning unless it was important.I opened it.The message was encrypted…one of those apps he’d made me install months ago for “family business.” I entered the code and waited for it to decrypt.An address appeared. Troy Daniels’ apartment. Followed by a single line of instruction.Make it hurt.A slow smile spread across my face.Finally,I’d been waiting for this. Watching that piece of shit circle around Melissa like a vulture, I tried to act blind to it because a warrior girl could handle herself. It didn't mean I didn’t investigate him from the first time I set my eyes on the miserable human. He was lucky Marcus got to him before me. B

    Gavin’s POVMy phone lit up on the desk. From: KaneShe got out. She’s safe.I stared at the message for a long moment, the words settling something in my chest that had been tight since the gala.I set the phone face down and stood from my chair. The leather creaked softly in the silence.The penthouse was dark except for the warm glow of Christmas lights Diana had insisted on stringing everywhere. They cast golden shadows across the walls, making everything look softer than it was.Everyone was asleep. Diana in our bedroom down the hall. Jason out doing whatever Jason did at this hour. And Melissa…Melissa still hadn’t come home.I knew where she was. Had been tracking her phone since she left hours ago. I watched that little dot move through the city, stop at Troy’s building, stay there for twenty-three minutes that felt like hours, then start moving again.She was on her way back now.But first, there was something I needed to do.I walked to my desk and pulled open the bottom draw

    Kane’s POVI’d been heading to meet a contact three blocks from the financial district when I spotted her. With her bright purple hair she was actually difficult to miss.I slowed my pace, when I realized it was Melissa’s friend from the gala… I found her pretty interesting with her sharp tongue and fearless eyes.I hesitated for a moment, then canceled my meeting with a quick text. Curiosity got the better of me, I suppose. I kept my distance as I followed her.She wandered the streets with no clear destination, her steps were aimless and unsteady. She entered a hotel, came out empty-handed looking devastated. Now she stood outside, bent over with her hands on her knees like she couldn’t breathe.Something was obviously wrong. I approached slowly and tapped her shoulder.She spun around so fast she nearly fell. Her eyes went wide…recognition flickering across her face.“You,” she whispered. “From the gala.”“Kane Rivers.” I offered my hand.She took it, and I pulled her upright. Her h

  • Craving My Mother's Hot Fiancé   Chapter 78

    Aria’s POVI’d been inside for five days.Five days since the gala. Five days since Christian had hit me. Five days since my world had narrowed to these four walls.I paced my bedroom like a caged animal, my bare feet wearing a path in the expensive carpet. Back and forth. Back and forth. The walls felt like they were closing in, the air too thick to breathe.I needed to get out. Needed air. Needed space. Needed anything other than this suffocating prison.I walked to my bedroom door and pulled it open.Two guards stood on either side, their faces impassive.“I’m going out,” I said, trying to sound confident. Authoritative.“I’m sorry, Miss Martinez,” the one on the left said without sounding sorry at all. “We have instructions that you’re not to leave.”“Instructions from who?”“Your parents, miss.”“My parents?” I laughed, but it came out bitter. “I’m twenty-three years old. They can’t just keep me locked up like…”“Those are our instructions,” the other guard interrupted. “We’re so

  • Craving My Mother's Hot Fiancé   Chapter 77

    Melissa’s POVI stood outside the apartment building, with my hands shoved deep in the pockets of my hooded coat.The neighborhood was run-down… broken bottles littered the sidewalks and every shadow felt like a threat. Graffiti covered the crumbling brick walls. A homeless man slept in the doorway of the building next door. The streetlights flickered weakly, casting everything in sickly yellow.I took a deep breath through my mouth, trying to steady my nerves and avoid smelling the air.I could do this. I just needed to get in, give him the money, get the video deleted, and get out.Simple.The building’s entrance door hung crooked on its hinges, the lock broken long ago. I pushed through and immediately wanted to gag.The hallway smelled worse than outside…like mold and cigarette smoke and something rotting that I couldn’t identify. The wallpaper peeled in long strips. Water stains spread across the ceiling like diseased branches.My footsteps echoed through the building as I climbe
