Aria dropped her spoon. It clattered loudly against the china, the sound ringing out like a gunshot in the silent room.

"Father," Damian said, his voice low and warning.

"Don't look at me like that, Damian," Alfred told his son. "It’s the simple truth. Desmond Hale sold one daughter to save his failing empire. He’s trying to sell this one now, but it seems the market has dried up. No one is buying."

He looked at Aria with a cruel, mocking amusement.

"Is that why you’re in the basement, girl? Hid

  • Forbidden By Her Sister's Husband    Chapter 368

    Hi everyone, Sorry for the lack of updates these past few days. I’ve been feeling a little under the weather, so I wasn’t able to write as much as I wanted to. The good news is that chapter updates will resume from tomorrow. I also have something exciting to share. Sebastian Cain Hierro’s story is finally out! ❤️‍🔥 Many of you met Sebastian in this book, and now he finally has a story of his own: Forbidden by Her Mafia Stepbrother. For those of you who have been curious about the man behind the amber eyes, the sarcasm, and the attitude, this is your chance to step into his world and meet Viola. I truly hope you’ll give Sebastian and Viola the same love and support you’ve shown Damian and Aria throughout their journey. It would mean a lot to me. Feel free to add the book to your library and let me know what you think of our Sebastian. I’m very excited (and a little nervous!) for you all to finally meet him as a main character. Thank you, as always, for your patience, support,

  • Forbidden By Her Sister's Husband    Chapter 367

    Damian looked up at her, his eyes bloodshot. "Cassandra told me she didn't want to hurt you. But she had absolutely no choice." Aria broke down completely. She bent forward, covering her face, crying with an agonizing, raw grief. She was pregnant. She knew the terrifying, desperate instinct to protect a child. The realization of what Cassandra had been forced to do—destroying her own sister just to keep a gun away from her little girl's head—was horrific. Aria dropped her hands, wiping her wet cheeks frantically. She looked down at him in a total panic. "Is she... is Cassandra okay? Is her baby safe?" "Yes," Damian promised immediately. "They are safe. When Sebastian came back, he figured out Marcus was the traitor. Sebastian pulled Cassandra and the baby out. They are hidden in a highly guarded safe house right now." Aria took a massive, shaking breath. She closed her eyes and let her head fall back against the chair, weeping quietly. "Thank God." She opened her eyes and looked b

    "What?" Aria choked out. Her entire body started to shake. Her heart shattered violently against her ribs. She stared at him in absolute, raw horror. "No... no, she couldn't. She wouldn't do that to me."Damian kept his hands open and lowered, seeing the sheer devastation ripping through her. "I know you went to meet Cassandra behind my back, Aria. I know you visited her when she was in the hospital."Aria stared at him, trembling uncontrollably. She had kept that visit a secret, but right now, she couldn't even process that he knew. All she could hear was that her sister had helped ruin her life."She... she was part of it?" Aria sobbed, her voice breaking completely as the betrayal suffocated her. "Why? Why would she do that to me?"Damian looked at her, his dark eyes filled with absolute sorrow. "Because Cassandra has a daughter, Aria. A one-year-old baby girl."Aria stopped breathing. The air simply vanished from the room."A daughter?" Aria whispered, her voice barely making a so

    Aria and Damian sat across from each other in the quiet study.The heavy silence stretched out between them. Neither of them rushed to speak. Aria kept her hands folded tightly in her lap, staring at the polished wood of the desk. Damian sat in his chair, completely still, just watching her and waiting.Finally, Aria took a slow, deep breath and looked up."Who wants to harm me?" she asked, her voice quiet but steady. "Who wants to hurt my child?"Damian let out a low, heavy breath. He looked at her pale face, knowing he could not hide anything from her anymore.He stood up from his chair. He walked around the large desk, but he did not pull up the other chair. Instead, he slowly lowered himself, getting down on his knees right in front of her on the hardwood floor.Aria froze. Her breath caught slightly, but she didn't move away.Damian reached out and gently took one of her cold hands in his. Aria looked down at his large hand covering hers. She let him hold it."We don't have a nam

    Damian sat down in one of the plastic waiting chairs.His heart hurt. It was a deep, physical ache twisting in his chest. He wanted to be inside that room so badly. He wanted to hold her hand, look at the ultrasound monitor, and hear his child's heartbeat. But he couldn't. He knew he deserved to sit out here in the cold hallway. He was paying the price for his own arrogance.His phone buzzed in his pocket.Damian pulled it out. It was Sebastian. He answered it, leaning his elbows on his knees."Bash.""How is it going, hermano?" Sebastian’s voice came through the speaker, sounding tired but sharp."I am sitting in a hallway," Damian muttered bitterly. "She wouldn't let me inside the room."Sebastian sighed on the other end of the line. "I figured. Is she still ignoring you?""Always," Damian rubbed a hand over his face. "She ignores me, or she screams at me. Today she reminded me again I am not the father. I don't know what to do anymore.""You need to talk to her," Sebastian said blu

    The next morning, the penthouse was quiet.Aria stood in front of the hallway mirror, adjusting the oversized sweater she had thrown on. It had been exactly a month since her last doctor’s appointment. Damian had booked the appointment with the best private gynecologist in the city, ensuring the clinic was heavily secured.She turned around to head toward the front door and stopped.Damian was standing in the living room. He was wearing a dark suit, his expression completely unreadable as he watched her walk out."The cars are ready downstairs," Damian said, his deep voice breaking the silence. "I am coming with you."Aria crossed her arms over her chest. "No, you aren't.""Aria," Damian said, stepping forward."I said no," Aria stated flatly. She didn't want to play this game today. "I will go with the security men. You are not coming."Damian froze for a second. His jaw tightened. "I need to go with you. I am the father too."The anger snapped inside Aria instantly. The exhaustion f

    The following week, the rain did not stop. It fell over the city in a gray, relentless curtain, turning the Hale estate into an island of wet stone and manicured mud.For Aria, the weather was a blessing. The rain kept people indoors, dampened the frantic energy of the wedding planners, and gave the

    The estate of the Sterling Vineyard was less of a wedding venue and more of a desolate wasteland.The wind cutting across the high valley was sharp enough to slice skin, carrying a damp, unseasonable chill that clung to everything. The sky was a flat, oppressive gray, pressing down on the vines that

    The dress was a crime against humanity.It was a swollen, suffocating monstrosity of mauve taffeta that rustled like a garbage bag every time Aria moved.It had puffy sleeves that swallowed her arms and a neckline that plunged awkwardly, exposing her collarbones in a way that made her look fragile a

    Aria stood at the end of the long, winding driveway, her breath puffing out in white clouds that were instantly snatched away by the gale.She was waiting for the bus.Her Honda Civic—the car her father had bought her five years ago as an afterthought was dead. It sat in the garage under a tarp, a r
