Nicolas’s POV

I excused myself from my meeting, expecting to see Riley waiting for me with the files. I felt bad for making her go through the stress of bringing them to me.

I could have just sent Ryder to get them instead, but I wanted to use that as an excuse to see her. Her soft scent, a blush whenever I threw compliments, was one I looked forward to.

God, she was my salvation.

As I marched to the reception, I was met with a scene that made me pause, making me clench my fist, and my blood boil.

Riley was standing by the receptionist's desk, her face pale and her eyes wide with fear. And standing in front of her, his face twisted in a sneer, was Asher.

My rage was instant. I could feel it burning within me, threatening to consume me whole.

How dare he. How dare he harass my wife?

“Let go of me, Asher; you have no business with why I am here,” Riley defends, her voice shaky.

He gripped harder on her arm, leaving a bruise. “You dare speak to me like that!” He shouts, looking around, m

    Nicolas’s POV I watched her walk away. Every step she took felt like a knife in my chest. I wanted to grab her, pull her back or make her listen. But I didn’t. I let her go. For now. Because the idea that she thinks I’ll just let her walk out of my life again? Absurd. I may have made that mistake before but it wasn’t one I was willing to make again. I’ll be damned to have her disappear again. Now that she’s back, I would have her return where she truly belongs. I walked out of the building, my hands clenched into fists. The cold air hit my face, but it didn’t calm me down her absence was eating me up. The fact that I couldn’t stop her from going eat me up, but Riley is a very bullheaded woman she won’t just budge. Nothing could calm me down right now. Not after seeing her. Not after touching her. Ryder was waiting by the car, leaning against the door. He took one look at my face and smirked. "That bad, huh?" I didn’t answer. I didn’t trust myself

    Riley’s POV His grip on my wrist was tight. Too tight. I yanked my hand back, glaring at him. "Cut the crap, Nicolas. We’re done. Whatever we had is in the past now. We both moved on." His jaw clenched. His dark eyes burned into mine. "Moved on? Is that what you think? Really Riley?" "Yes," I snapped. "That’s exactly what I think. We’re over so please don’t try to get in my way." He stepped closer, his voice low and dangerous. "We’re not divorced, Riley. You still belong to me and you’re mine alone" I laughed, but it came out bitter. "I don’t belong to anyone. Especially not you. You made your choices Nicolas. Now you can fuck off." His face darkened. "You think this is a game?" "No," I said, crossing my arms. "But I’m not playing anymore. Our union was based on a contract if I need to remind you of thatThere was never anything real between us and I was a fool to think there was something between us, I may have made that mistake before but not anymore, don’t test me"

    Nicolas’ POV Five years later… Five fucking years. That’s how long I’ve been searching for her. For Riley. Every day. Every night. Every second. I never stopped. I hired the best investigators. I paid off every informant. I chased down every lead. Nothing. She disappeared like smoke. Like she never existed. And it killed me. I remember the day I came back from Thailand. I had just finished my mission the one that forced me to pretend to be engaged to that president’s daughter. It was all a game. A way to get close to her father. I never wanted her. I never touched her. All I thought about was Riley. My wife. The woman I loved. The woman who left. When I got back, I expected to find her waiting for me. But she was gone. No note. No call. Nothing. Just… gone. I know I may have fucked yo for not answering her text messages or calls but I was a mission, I didn’t want to get her involved, last thing I would ever do is put her in danger.

    Riley’s POV My head hurt. Everything was blurry. My body felt heavy, like I had been sleeping for years. I groaned, trying to move, but my arms were weak. Where was I? The last thing I remembered… The TV screen.Nicolas with another woman.My heart shattering.Driving to Anna’s apartment . Then… nothing. Blackness. And now… I forced my eyes open, blinking against the bright light. The ceiling above me was unfamiliar white, high, expensive-looking.This wasn’t Anna’s place. Where the hell was I? I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my temple. I gasped, falling back onto the soft bed. That’s when I heard it. A sob. A woman crying. I turned my head slowly, my heart pounding. There, sitting beside my bed, was a woman with tears streaming down her face. She looked older, maybe in her fifties, but… beautiful. Her hair was dark like mine, her eyes the same shade of green. And she was staring at me like I was a ghost. “My child…” she whispered,

My heart dropped. My whole body froze. There it was a picture of Nicolas holding hands with a beautiful woman. The headline screamed: "BILLIONAIRE NICOLAS KING TO MARRY THAILAND PRESIDENT’S DAUGHTER, PRINCESS AMARA."My hands shook. My vision blurred. No. No, this couldn’t be real. But it was. There he was, smiling at her like she was his whole world. The same smile he used to give me. The same eyes that looked into mine and said, "I love you, Riley." I fell to my knees. My chest hurt so bad I couldn’t breathe. Tears poured down my face, hot and fast. No wonder he wasn’t picking up my calls.No wonder he stopped replying to my messages.He was with her.He was marrying her. All this time, I thought he was busy. I trusted him. I believed h
