AVERY

WHEN WE WERE done dressing up, I was shocked to see a limousine parked in front of my house. Adriano must have forgotten about it too, because he cursed under his breath and hurried to the driver's seat. He knocked on the window gently. A few seconds later, the window wound down and the driver greeted, "Good morning, Mr Adriano."

"I totally forgot you were here, Pete," Adriano said. "I would have told you to go back home after dropping me."

The man took it in good stride. "The seat is pre

    EMILY TURNED AROUND around gently in her bed. She had been awake for a while now, though she had not said anything. The steady beeping of the heart monitor had become familiar over the past few days. It was almost comforting now.A few days ago, she had been sure she was going to die of heartbreak but now she knew better.Across the room, Adam sat in the chair beside her bed. His jacket hung loosely over the backrest and the sleeves of his shirt were rolled to his elbows. He had barely slept and he looked like it. He had barely left her side since the accident. Even now, he was quietly peeling an orange with careful patience, making sure the juice did not drip onto the floor. Emily watched him silently for a moment.Her chest warmed slightly. Adam had always been gentle.“How long have you been awake?” Adam said suddenly without looking up.Emily blinked as if she did not know she was awake.Adam finally glanced at her with a small smile. “You’ve been watching me for five minutes.”Em

    The grand study was already filled when Konstantin entered. He had called the meeting impromptu, but the family of Russia knew better than to give him excuse or show defiance. The heavy oak doors shut behind him with a quiet thud, sealing the room in tense silence. Morning light filtered through the tall windows, cutting across the long conference table where the heads of the Russian families sat waiting.They were older men for the most part. Dangerous in the quiet way men became after decades of power. Their conversations died the moment Konstantin stepped into the room.Every pair of eyes followed him as he walked slowly toward the head of the table. The polished floor reflected the dark line of his suit as he moved.Konstantin reached his chair and pulled it back before sitting down.The chair at his right remained empty. It was the chair that belonged to Nadia, but he made sure his men kept her away from here.He made eye contact with everyone in the room, as if daring them to sp

    MORNING CAME QUIETLY, but Nadia did not notice it at first. Sleep had not come easily to her, and when it finally did, it had been shallow and restless, filled with fragments of memories she would rather forget.But sleep was way better than what her reality had become.The large bedroom was silent when her eyes opened. For a moment, She lay still beneath the heavy silk sheets, staring at the familiar ceiling above her. The room was enormous, larger than her bedroom she had grown up in.It was cold, empty, and quiet. Nothing like how she had envisioned married life to be like, although she was not really surprised, knowing the type of man Konstantin was.Even his presence in the room would not make it any warmer. Nothing about the room felt like home. Her throat tightened as she sat up. She remembered walking down the aisle in front of powerful families, cameras, and smiling faces.Everyone had called it a grand union. They called it the future of the Petrovan dynasty, saying she ha

    The hospital smelled like antiseptic and over-brewed coffee.Avery kept her head down as she walked through the sliding glass doors of St. Jude Medical Center, the brim of her baseball cap shadowing half her face. Large sunglasses hid the rest. A pale wigitched against her scalp. The oversized hoodie and loose jeans disguised the lines of her body. The woman moving through the lobby looked nothing like Dr. Avery Quinn.That was the point because to the world, she was dead.To the press, she was a tragic headline.If anyone knew that she was alive, it would be a bigger risk on her, and everyone who tried to help her. Her fingers tightened around the strap of her bag as she approached the reception desk.“Emily Levrone,” she said quietly, pitching her voice lower. “Room number?”The nurse glanced at her screen. “Fourth floor. 417. But visiting hours are...”“I won’t be long.”Avery said, slipping away before the nurse could complete her sentence. Her pulse didn’t steady until the eleva

    THE AIR BETWEEN them was tight enough to snap.Nadia stood just inside the room, the door closed behind her, her posture straight and unyielding. Fire light flickered across the walls, casting long, restless shadows that made the space feel smaller, closer, as though the mansion itself were holding its breath. Konstantin faced her from across the room, bare-chested, relaxed in the way only men who had never feared consequences could be.They regarded each other in silence. Not as lovers. Not equals.They were dversaries bound by history, blood, and something far more dangerous than affection.Nadia did not let her gaze linger on him. She kept her expression neutral, controlled, though every instinct screamed at her to remain alert. She had prepared for this moment on the flight home, replaying it over and over until fear dulled into sharp clarity. She knew his habits. His temper. The way he liked to circle before striking like snake with rabies, and just as dangerous. Konstantin til

    THE STEADY BEEP of the heart monitor was the only thing anchoring Emily to the present. White light pressed against her eyelids even when they were closed, the hospital room too bright, too clean, too sterile for the weight sitting on her chest. The faint ache at the back of her skull reminded her she was still healing, that the surgery had been real, that she had survived it—barely. Her head felt wrapped in cotton and painkillers, her thoughts slow but stubbornly persistent.Emily lay half-awake, eyes drifting open and closed, while Keisha sat beside her bed, legs crossed, scrolling through her phone and talking in that soft, forced brightness people used around the injured. She had been talking for a while now, Emily had no idea how long. Time didn’t behave properly in hospitals. Minutes stretched. Hours collapsed.“…and the nurse said if you keep eating like this, you’ll be out of here in no time,” Keisha said gently, setting the phone aside. “You should’ve seen Adam earlier, Em. H
