Sunlight streamed through the tall windows of Alexander’s room, casting a gentle glow across the floor as the nurse stood respectfully near the door.
"Asher sir has just left” She said softly.
“Good. Now please… call my sons and Aurora. I need to speak with them” Alexander,
(Author’s POV)The world outside was slowly shifting into dusk, the mansion cloaked in a quiet that only comes after a storm of emotions. Inside Alexander’s room, time had stilled.Aurora sat on the floor between Ian and Asher, both of whom rested their heads on her shoulders. Tears had stopped for now but their eyes still burned, rimmed with red and exhaustion.They weren’t speaking. They just needed her. And she was there.Meanwhile, the soft creak of footsteps echoed as Ryan and Owen descended the grand staircase.No words passed between them, but their faces still carved with sorrow were now lined with quiet determination. Their grief would not stop them from giving their father the farewell he deserved.
(Author’s POV)The black Skylar car pulled into the long stone driveway, passing the familiar front gates. The mansion stood tall, regal as always but something about it felt different now.Too still. Too quiet.“Alright, let’s go find out what ‘important’ emergency Owen cooked up this time. Maybe he found gray hair” Inside the car, Ian stretched his arms and yawned.Aurora gave him a tight smile, but her hand gripped the door handle a bit too firmly.The car stopped. The driver stepped out and opened the back door. Ian hopped out first, full of casual energy. Aurora followed, slower, her instincts prickling.As they approached the front d
(Author’s POV)The grand living room of Skylar mansion was unusually silent, the kind of silence that clung to the walls like grief. James sat near the entrance, his phone in hand, trying over and over again to reach Asher.Call after call. Still unreachable.He let out a breath of frustration and sorrow, his thumb hovering over Ian’s contact, ready to try the next person.But just then, the front doors opened. Asher walked in, brushing dust from his jacket, his expression relaxed from the scouting trip. James stood up immediately, phone trembling slightly in his hands.“I…I was trying to reach you sir but the network was unreachable”.“Yeah, I
(Author’s POV)In RS Enterprise, the boardroom was buzzing with quiet intensity. The long oval table was surrounded by top-level executives, heads of departments, analysts, all focused on the large LED screen displaying graphs and projections for the next quarter.At the head of the table sat Ryan Skylar, his posture straight, expression sharp, dressed immaculately in a tailored navy suit. His pen tapped lightly against his notepad as he listened to a senior manager presenting a strategic growth plan.On his right, his assistant took notes swiftly, occasionally stealing glances at Ryan’s phone that buzzed on silent mode… once… twice… a third time. Ryan didn’t flinch. His focus was absolute.But when the assistant’s own phone l
(Author’s POV)Alexander’s room was quiet…too quiet. A gentle breeze flowed in through the slightly cracked window, moving the sheer curtains with soft rustles. The sunlight didn’t feel warm today, it felt dim, dull, like it too was bracing for something.The nurse, who had been carefully noting Alexander’s vitals, furrowed her brows. Something was off.His breathing… it had changed. More labored. More shallow. His skin had paled a shade further. His fingers, once occasionally twitching with life, now lay still on the white sheets.She immediately stood up, quickly but calmly, and walked out into the hallway. Her heart raced.Down the corridor, James stood speaking with another staf
(Author’s POV)The grand staircase creaked softly as Owen and Aurora descended side by side. Aurora had freshly brushed hair tucked behind her ears and wore a light pastel dress, her cheeks slightly flushed.Owen looked calm and content, his hand gently resting on the small of her back as they stepped into the living room, where Asher, Ryan, and Ian were already lounging on the couches, half-scrolling through their phones and half-chatting about their plans for the day.The moment the three brothers saw them walking in together, their eyes narrowed like synchronized predators sensing something… interesting.Ian noticed the pink tint on Aurora’s face immediately and smirked.“Well, well, well,” H

(Author’s POV)Ryan’s breath was heavy as he stared into Aurora’s eyes, his mind consumed by the images that had tormented him all evening. Caleb’s hands on her waist. Caleb making her laugh. Cal
(Author’s POV)The car’s door opened and Skylar brothers stepped out one by one, together, for the first time in years. The media and public had been waiting for this very moment. The flashing cameras turned into an almost blinding storm of lights, capturing the brothers from every possible angle.
(Author’s POV)Ian, as usual, was the first to arrive home. He was so fatigued from football practice that he immediately showered, changed and slept. After about an hour or so, Asher returned. He had to cut his s
