CHAPTER 146 — THE LAST THREAD THAT SNAPPED

مؤلف: A knight in skirt
last update آخر تحديث: 2025-12-08 23:19:27

The sky looked bruised when Elena stepped outside the hospital. Not dark… just swollen with colors that didn’t know whether to stay or break open. A strange stillness hung around her, not the peaceful kind—more like the quiet that comes right before the storm claws its way in.

She pulled Adrian’s jacket tighter around her shoulders. It still held his scent, still felt like protection, still felt like him. And yet, today, everything inside her felt dangerously fragile.

Adrian hadn’t woken up.

Not yet.

The doctor said he was stable. The doctor said his body was recovering. The doctor said his heartbeat was strong. The doctor said all the right things. But none of them were the thing she really needed to hear: that he would open his eyes and say her name.

Elena sucked in a shaky breath and looked around the almost-empty parking lot. She needed air. She needed a second alone. She needed space to stop shaking.

But she didn’t get it.

Because someone was watching her.

She didn’t see him at f

  • Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO    CHAPTER 155 — BLOOD AND OATHS

    The night before the gala passed without incident, and that alone unsettled Adrian.He lay awake beside Elena, listening to the steady rhythm of her breathing, the soft brush of the sheets as she shifted in her sleep. Her hand rested lightly against her abdomen, as though even unconscious she was aware of the life growing there. The sight filled his chest with something fierce and aching all at once.Silence had never meant safety.By morning, the city was draped in gray, clouds hanging low and heavy as if the sky itself were holding its breath. Elena stood before the mirror in the bedroom, adjusting the fall of her dress with careful precision. It was elegant without being ostentatious, soft lines that moved with her body rather than constraining it. She looked like herself again—composed, unbowed.“You don’t have to do this,” Adrian said from behind her.She met his gaze in the mirror. “I want to.”He nodded, accepting the answer for what it was. Choice.

  • Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO    CHAPTER 153 — THE WEIGHT OF TOMORROW

    Morning came quietly, the way it often did now—without urgency, without noise. Elena woke to a pale spill of light across the curtains and the distant hum of the city below. For a few seconds, she lay still, letting herself exist in the fragile space between sleep and waking, where nothing demanded answers and the future hadn’t yet pressed its full weight against her chest.Then she shifted.The fatigue returned instantly, a slow heaviness in her limbs that felt deeper than exhaustion. It wasn’t pain. It was awareness. A constant reminder that her body was no longer just hers, that every breath, every choice, carried consequences she could not see.Adrian wasn’t beside her.She turned her head toward the empty half of the bed, the sheets already cool. That alone told her he’d been up for a while. Adrian didn’t wake early unless his mind refused to let him rest.Elena pushed herself upright and swung her legs over the side of the bed, pausing as a faint wave of dizziness rolled through

  • Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO    CHAPTER 152 — THE THINGS WE CARRY

    Elena had learned, over the past few weeks, that knowing did not make things lighter.If anything, it made them heavier.She woke before dawn with that familiar, bone-deep fatigue that sleep no longer chased away. The room was quiet, wrapped in the blue hush that came just before morning. Adrian lay beside her, one arm curved protectively around her waist, his breathing slow and even. He hadn’t slept well in days. She could tell by the way his grip tightened whenever she shifted, as though his body no longer trusted stillness.Elena stared at the ceiling and let her hand rest over her abdomen. There was no movement yet—nothing she could feel—but the weight was there all the same. Not physical. Emotional. A constant awareness that something fragile and powerful existed because of her.And that everyone seemed to be afraid of it.She moved carefully, disentangling herself from Adrian’s hold. Even so, his eyes opened instantly.“Where are you going?” he asked, voice rough with sleep.“Ba

  • Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO    CHAPTER 151 — EARLY SIGNS

    Elena woke up that morning with a heaviness in her limbs that didn’t match the time on the clock. It was barely 7am, the soft morning light filtering through the thick curtains, painting the room in muted gold. Normally, she would already be stretching, pulling herself out of bed before Adrian woke, but today her body refused to cooperate. Her stomach felt heavy and unsettled, not painful, just… strange. A type of discomfort she couldn’t quite name.She groaned quietly and curled slightly to the side, one hand sliding unconsciously to her abdomen.Adrian, who had been lightly asleep behind her, woke instantly at the small sound. His arm tightened gently around her waist.“Elena?” His voice was still husky with sleep, warm and deep. “What’s wrong?”She shook her head, even though she knew he would pick up the lie immediately. “Nothing. Just a little tired.”Adrian shifted, propping himself on his elbow so he could look down at her. Hi

  • Flash Marriage To The Billionaire CEO    CHAPTER 150 — THE CONTRACT, THE THREAT, AND THE CHOICE

    Elena woke up before Adrian the next morning, her cheek pressed against his shoulder, his arm locked around her lower back like she might disappear if he loosened his hold. The curtains were still drawn, the room still dim, but she could already feel the hum of tension in the air—like life itself was warning her that today would not be ordinary.She slowly shifted, trying not to wake him. But the moment she moved an inch, his arm tightened.“Where do you think you’re going,” he murmured, voice deep and gravelly from sleep.Elena smiled softly. “Bathroom.”“No.” His eyes cracked open, still half-lidded yet intense. “Five more minutes.”“We’ve already spent thirty minutes in bed,” she reminded him, brushing her thumb against his jaw. “We have a meeting, remember?”Adrian dragged her back against him, burying his face in her neck. “I remember. I just don’t care.”She chuckled, even though her heart was heavy underneath. Today wasn’t just any meeting. Today was the board meeting where the
