2025-10-07 08:01:47Jace finished the long conversation with Sky’s father at last. His polite mask slipped the moment he turned from the man, and his gaze immediately swept toward the table where he had left Eden.
Empty.
The seat was vacant, the glass she had been sipping from already cleared by one of the servers. His jaw tightened as he scanned the crowded ballroom, searching through faces and dresses, but she was nowhere in sight. Irritation flared in his chest like a storm.
He strode toward Kyrell, who sat alone at the edge of the table, absently rotating his half-melted cocktail glass between his palms.
“Where is she?” Jace’s voice cut sharply, cold, and demanding.
Kyrell looked up.
“She went to the ladies’ room some minutes ago, but she hasn’t come back yet.” He frowned, realization dawning in his voice. “It’s… It’s been almost an hour now.”
The silence that followed was

“Oh my God, you scared me!” Tessa gasped, stumbling slightly as her fingers lost their grip on the iron rail.“You were thinking about the date you missed?” Haley teased lightly, her voice soft but amused.“You actually scared me, Haley,” Tessa repeated, pressing a hand to her chest to steady her heartbeat.Haley tilted her head with that mischievous smirk she always wore when she wanted to make someone laugh.“Why were you startled then? Only two kinds of people jump like that. People hiding terrible secrets, and those sinking into the deep pit of depression. Which one are you, huh? The second, I guess?” She broke into laughter, and Tessa, despite herself, joined in as Haley’s fingers attacked her ribs in a playful tickle.For a moment, their laughter drifted into the cool evening air, floating over the terrace of the Bellamy residence.Tessa turned to face her friend, finally noticing t

Eden stiffened the moment Kyrell told her she would be heading back to San Francisco by the weekend. His voice was calm but carried a weight that made her chest tighten. Her mind stuttered, caught somewhere between disbelief and panic. How could he have known what happened at Haley’s house so fast?She stood there, her hands limp at her sides, staring at him as though trying to pull answers from his face.Kyrell gently wrapped his arms around her waist, lowering his head to rest on her shoulder. He began to sway slowly, guiding her body into the soft, rhythmic motion as if they

The streets of San Francisco blurred past the window, neon lights and dim streetlamps blending into one long stream of gold and grey.No one spoke. Haley simply held her son close, his tiny fingers curled into her blouse as if he, too, sensed that something bad had happened tonight.When they finally pulled up at the Bellamy estate, the tall iron gates opened silently, and Kennedy guided the SUV into the wide circular driveway. Gretchen slipped out first, gently wrapping her arm around Haley’s shoulder as they entered the house. Tessa followed behind, carrying Kyrell carefully.Two housemaids waited at the entrance, already aware of the situation. Kennedy handed the chauffeur his car keys and gave instructions to bring in the bags.“Do you want anything to eat, sweetheart? I’ll have the kitchen whip something up immediately.” Gretchen offered, her tone laced with the kind of care that only came from years of nurturing.&ldqu

Jace leaned against the edge of his desk, his gaze drifting absently through the windows of his office. His mind was somewhere else, buried in the mess he’d made.He had lifted the blinds earlier so the room wouldn’t feel so damn suffocating, but even the breeze did nothing to ease the weight on his chest. His hands were shoved into the pockets of his trousers, jaw tight, shoulders set.The drive back from Haley’s house had been silent, a silence so heavy it had become a scream in his head. He couldn’t shake the guilt this time. What he had done wasn’t something he could just shrug off with a drink. No, this time, he had crossed a line he shouldn’t have.When he’d walked into the house with the men, he wasn’t expecting the nursery to shake him the way it did. But then he saw Kyrell. Tiny. Peaceful. Innocent. And something in him cracked.He had originally planned to make Haley feel unsafe, to make her understand that eyes were on her every second. He want

Sky gripped the steering wheel tightly, her knuckles turning pale as she sped through Market Street. Her palm slammed against the leather a few times in frustration, the thud echoing through the car’s quiet interior. She regretted ever agreeing to stay back for lunch.Sure, Michael had apologized, flashed that annoying grin of his, and made peace with her, but the sting of his words still burned. He hadn’t changed at all. If anything, he had gotten worse. Even though he’d spoken the truth, not everything had to be said that way or even said at all.Her mind raced as she replayed the moment at the dining table.She had wanted to escape the questions. To avoid his interrogation. To breathe.But she’d made the mistake of agreeing when Edward had gently asked her to stay for lunch. And the moment she sat at that long mahogany table, she knew it was a mistake.“So, when are you going to give Dad his first grandchild, Sky?&r

Eden sat motionless on the edge of the bed, her knees pulled tightly against her chest, her forehead pressed into her folded arms. Her shoulders trembled silently, betraying the tears she had worked so hard to suppress earlier when she spoke with Haley and Tessa.Kyrell leaned on the wall and watched her from across the room.“I can’t keep lying to her, Kyrell,” Eden choked out, lifting her face at last. Her eyes were red and glossy, her lips trembling.“You haven’t lied to anyone,” Kyrell replied softly from where he stood, his voice low and steady.“Yes, I did. I told her I was fine. I told everyone I was fine. But I’m not. I don’t even know where I am anymore. I was trapped for months. Yet they believe I’m okay.” She wiped at her tears furiously with her palm.“Hey. You’re with me now.” Kyrell took a step closer, his voice firm but gentle.“I want to
