Elara's POV

My mouth dropped open as I stared at him in complete disbelief. The audacity of this man never ceased to amaze me.

"Are you for real?" I asked, my voice rising with incredulity. My hands were shaking with a mixture of anger and shock.

Killian just stared at me with that infuriating calm expression, like he hadn't just made the most outrageous demand in the middle of my crisis. His lips curved into a slight smirk that made my blood boil.

"You know, your ability to switch up so fast needs to be studied," he said casually, like we were discussing the weather.

My chest heaved as fury coursed through my veins. "I'm in such a dilemma and you deem it to be a joke?" My voice cracked with emotion. "I'm frustrated! That guy will turn up with my private pictures and paste them everywhere and hurt my loved ones."

Hot tears of anger burned behind my eyes as I glared at him. "I am this frustrated and you are here treating it as a joke!"

Killian's expression shifted, becoming more seriou

    Killian's POVThe word hung in the air between us like a challenge. I watched as Elara's eyes widened, her cheeks flushing a deep pink that made something primal stir in my chest. Her lips parted slightly, and I could see the rapid rise and fall of her breathing.For a moment, I thought she might slap me. Or maybe run away like she always did when things got too intense between us. But she just stared at me, her eyes searching my face like she was trying to figure out if I was serious.I leaned back slightly, letting my words sink in. Her hands were trembling in her lap, and I could see the pulse hammering at her throat. She opened her mouth, then closed it again, like she couldn't find the right words."Well," I said, my voice steady and matter-of-fact, "we've been going back and forth, and I figured it really isn't necessary."Her eyebrows furrowed in confusion, and she tilted her head slightly. I could practically see the wheels turning in her mind."It might be a contracted marria

    Elara's POVI couldn't hold the tears in anymore. They came pouring out like a dam had burst inside me, and I pressed my hands to my face, trying to muffle the sobs that were tearing through my chest.I didn't mean to cry. I'd been holding everything together for so long, building walls around my heart to protect myself. But when someone stares at you with those caring eyes, when someone offers you a listening ear, especially someone you weren't expecting to, it felt so comforting that all my defenses crumbled.My shoulders shook as the tears kept coming, hot and unstoppable. I felt pathetic, sitting there falling apart in front of Killian, but I couldn't stop it anymore.The bed dipped beside me, and I felt his warmth as he moved closer. My heart skipped when his hands gently took mine, his fingers warm and steady against my trembling ones.I looked up through my tears and found him staring at me with an expression I'd never seen before. His dark eyes were soft, concerned, and comple

    Killian's POVI watched Elara rush out of the room like her life depended on it, and my gut clenched with worry. Something was wrong. Very wrong.The way she'd gone pale while looking at her phone, the tremor in her voice when she lied about some celebrity couple - I wasn't buying any of it. Elara might be good at hiding things, but I'd learned to read the subtle signs. The way her shoulders tensed. How her breathing changed. The slight shake in her hands before she clenched them into fists.I stared at the door she'd disappeared through, my jaw tightening. What was she hiding this time?My fingers found my phone, and I dialed Marcus without thinking twice."Sir?" His voice was crisp and alert."Has anyone been lurking around my wife recently?" I asked, my voice low and serious. "Any suspicious activity? Strange cars? People following her?""No, sir. My men are on high alert. We've had eyes on her since you gave the order. Nothing out of the ordinary, except for the hospital visit aft

    Elara's POVI opened my eyes slowly, blinking against the afternoon sunlight streaming through my bedroom windows. My body felt much better than it had this morning - the throbbing in my head had dulled to a manageable ache, and my muscles didn't feel like they'd been run over by a truck anymore.I sat up in bed, stretching my arms above my head, when I nearly jumped out of my skin. Killian was sitting on the cushioned chair in the corner of my room, his long legs stretched out in front of him, scrolling through his phone like he owned the place.My heart hammered against my chest from the shock. "Welcome to earth, sleeping princess," he said without looking up from his screen, a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.I rubbed my eyes, still trying to process what I was seeing. "What are you doing here?" My voice came out rougher than I intended, thick with sleep.He finally looked up, his dark eyes meeting mine. "I came to pick you up. You were sleeping, and I didn't want to dist

    Killian's POVI stared at my phone after ending the call with Elara, shaking my head slowly. What a weird lady. She couldn't wait to get out of that hospital fast enough. One minute she's unconscious from a car accident, the next she's running home like the place was on fire.My jaw clenched as I leaned back in my leather office chair. Something didn't feel right about that accident. The timing was too convenient, too suspicious. My gut was telling me there was more to it than just a simple crash.I reached for my desk phone and dialed Marcus, my head of security. He picked up on the first ring."Sir?""I need you to prepare bodyguards for my wife," I said, my voice low and serious. "But do it quietly. She can't know she's being followed. Make sure they're the best we have - invisible but effective.""Understood, sir. How many men?""Three shifts. I want her covered twenty-four seven." My fingers drummed against the wooden desk. "And Marcus? If anything happens to her, anything at all
