Its light spilled into the building, making the walls glow soft gold.I stood by the window, looking out at the skyscrapers stretching into the sky. From up here, the world felt quiet, almost unreal. Dubai was so far from everything I had known, but it was safe. For the first time in a long time, safe felt like home.Ethan was in the kitchen, cutting fruit with careful hands. Natasha and Samantha were on the living room floor, playing a board game, giggling and arguing over turns. Their voices floated through the apartment, and for a moment, I let myself breathe.I touched the scar on my chest. The sniperâs bullet had missed my heart, but it left its mark. Every time I traced it, I remembered the chaos, the hospital lights, Ethan screaming at me to hold on. Survival had not come easy. It had been bought with fire, betrayal and loss. My family, my bloodline, my name, my wealth, all gone. Everything I had ever thought

I knew the sound of every floorboard, and I knew when strangers entered it.I did not fight when they burst into my room. I saw one of them first, I recognized this menace.Savage.His eyes burned with the kind of hate only a man like him could carry. Two of his little servants came to hold me by the arms and dragged me out. My feet slid along as I was dragged like a prisoner in the place I once ruled.They shoved me into the living room. And in the center, leaning on his cane, was the old man. Their leader. Mr. Hills.They forced me into a chair. My wrists were tied, the rope rough and biting into my skin.
