LOGIN“You have no idea what you’ve done to me. I’ve been replaying every sound you made, every way you came apart for me.” His grip tightened. “I’m not letting that go. I’m not letting you go. Fuck the friendship. I want you.” I let out a little gasp. His thumb rubbed across my lower lip. “I don’t just want to fuck you—I want to keep you. You’re my favorite sin, and I’ll commit it again and again until you understand you’re mine.” His lips twitched a little. “You’ve always been mine, Savannah.” ——- Her sister is marrying her ex. So she brings her best friend as her fake fiancé. What could possibly go wrong? Savannah Hart thought she was over Dean Archer—until her sister, Chloe announces she's marrying him. The same man Savannah never stopped loving. The man who left her heartbroken… and now belongs to her sister. A weeklong wedding in New Hope. One mansion full of guests. And a very bitter maid of honor. To survive it, Savannah brings a date—her charming, clean-cut best friend, Roman Blackwood. The one man who’s always had her back. He owes her a favor, and pretending to be her fiancé? Easy. Until fake kisses start to feel real. Now Savannah’s torn between keeping up the act… or risking everything for the one man she was never supposed to fall for.

I let my head turn with it, more out of politeness than pain. I just wanted her to have her moment. To make it seem like something… out of a movie. It wasn’t like I didn’t see it coming. Penelope was predictable that way—reactive, emotional, always performing even when her whole world was catching fire.I straightened slowly, rubbing my jaw with two fingers. “There it is,” I murmured. “I was wondering when you’d get around to that.”Her chest heaved. Her face was blotched red, her eyes wet and wild—equal parts shock and heartbreak. “How can you do this to me?” she whispered, her voice cracking. “Why would you do this to me, Reese? Why?”I exhaled softly. “Penny,” I said, lifting a brow, “you just asked me two questions at once. Which one am I supposed to answer first?”The shocked look she gave me almost made me lau
Chapter 214: You Know WhyReese Finally, I get to be done with Penelope. Since we’re moving on to more important things, it’s only right I let her know exactly who sends his regards.I set a timer and waited outside the courthouse. Penny was inside, handling another one of her high-profile cases. She’s hoping this one drags the public’s eyes away from the circus she made of the last trial. Fingers crossed she’s actually wearing those panties today. If not, well—there’s always next time. That’s why I brought flowers. If she’s got it on, I’ll give her the message. If she does not, I’ll pretend the bouquet was the whole point.I checked my reflection in the rearview mirror, running my hands through my hair. Probably time for a trim. Or maybe it’s finally time to let go of the dye altogether. I’ve been blond for so long I’m not even sure I’d recognize myself without it. It’s become a part of me.Funny thing is, it started as a rebellion. Everyone in our family has black hair—father, moth
Chapter 213: Sounds Beautiful Roman I took a deep breath as I stepped onto the cool, moon-washed sand. The waves crashed in slow, rhythmic pulses—beautiful, steady, calming. Or they should have been. But tonight the sound only sharpened the chaos in my head.I’d been strung tight all day. I thought that maybe walking out here, letting the water kiss my feet, letting the night swallow me whole, would help. But my chest still felt iron-clamped. My mind still churned. My stomach still twisted with something that felt halfway between rage and sickness. I felt… bad. Really bad.I sat down on the sand, dragging a hand down my face as Paula’s voice echoed in my mind, sharp as shrapnel even over the rolling of the waves. The ocean was peaceful. The world was peaceful. But inside me? It was war.God. How did everything get so twisted so fast?All I wanted was simple. A life with Savannah. A place no one could find us—no fathers, no enemies, no ghosts clawing at our backs. A home where our k
Chapter 212: Something… FittingRoman “Did Jace send you after my fiancé?” Savannah asked, her voice sharp enough to cut bone.Paula didn’t hesitate. “No. I doubt he’d want that, considering his daughter is in love with Blackwood’s son. He loves you too much to do anything that'd hurt you.”Savannah stepped forward, jaw set. “Well, newsflash, Paula. You’re not touching him. I won't let you.”Paula laughed. “And what are you going to do? If I decide to take my sweet revenge, Savannah, what can you do to me? I mean, besides your fiancé intervening?” “Don't mess with me. If you dare me, I'll make sure whatever plan my father made with you will never amount to anything. I'll take it as far as I can, Paula. Be warned.” Paula laughed—an ugly, scraped-out sound. “Does your father know about this? Your real father. Does he know that you plan to stand in his way of getting back at The General?” “Yes,” Savannah snapped. “Uncle Jace has met Roman. And he knows Roman is a good man. Whatever y
