He Divorced Me… But I Was Never His To Lose(regret & desire) CHAPTER 11
RUNThe moment those words left Damian’s mouth, the entire stairwell seemed to close in around me, the cold concrete walls suddenly feeling tighter, narrower, suffocating in a way that made it difficult to breathe properly. My heartbeat had already been unstable since leaving the hospital, but now it was completely out of control, pounding so violently that every sound around me blurred together into one overwhelming rush of panic and confusion.“If they take you tonight, you disappear forever.”I stared at him, trying to understand how my life had spiraled into this nightmare so quickly, but nothing made sense anymore. Less than twenty-four hours ago, I thought the worst thing that could happen to me was signing divorce papers and walking away from a broken marriage. Now, strange men were hunting me through buildings, my pregnancy had become public gossip, and the man who divorced me was standing in front of me talking like my life was suddenly worth killing for.The footsteps below

THE TRUTH HE BURIEDThe stairwell fell into a silence so heavy that even breathing felt dangerous. I stood frozen between them, my heart pounding violently as the tension in the narrow space tightened with every passing second, pressing against my chest until it became almost unbearable. Above me stood Damian, his expression colder than I had ever seen it before, his gaze fixed entirely on Lucien with an intensity that made it obvious this confrontation had nothing to do with simple rivalry anymore. Below us, Lucien remained still, calm on the surface but carrying the kind of quiet danger that felt far more threatening than shouting ever could.Neither man moved.Neither looked away.And somehow, I understood immediately that this was not the first time they had faced each other like this.“Move.”Damian’s voice came again, sharper now, controlled in the same way a storm looks controlled moments before it destroys everything around it.Lucien did not react.“No.”The single word echoe

YOU LIED TO MEFor a second, neither Ava nor I moved. The stairwell suddenly felt too narrow, too enclosed, every sound echoing sharply against the concrete walls while the footsteps below continued at a slow, controlled pace that somehow felt far more threatening than if the man had been running toward us aggressively.“Miss Vale.”His voice came again, calm and patient, as though he already knew there was nowhere for us to go.“We are not here to hurt you.”I tightened my grip on Ava’s hand instinctively, my pulse pounding violently in my chest as I stared down into the dimly lit stairwell, trying to make out the figure slowly emerging from the shadows below.“Do not answer him.”Lucien’s voice remained steady through the phone pressed against my ear, but something about it felt tighter now, more focused than before.“Keep moving.”“There is nowhere to move,” I whispered harshly, my breathing uneven. “There is someone below us.”A brief silence followed.Then:“How many?”“I cannot

DO NOT OPEN THE DOORThe moment I stepped away from the window, my heartbeat became impossible to ignore, loud and uneven against the silence filling the apartment. Ava stood up immediately the second she saw my expression change, concern flashing across her face as she moved toward me quickly, but I could barely focus on her because my attention remained fixed on the men downstairs and the feeling settling heavily in my chest.“What happened?”Her voice sounded distant for a moment.“Serena, what is wrong?”I looked at her slowly, forcing myself to stay calm even though every instinct inside me was telling me something was very wrong.“There are people outside.”Ava frowned immediately.“What people?”“The kind Lucien says I should not ignore.”Confusion crossed her face at first, but the moment she moved toward the window herself and cautiously looked down, her entire expression shifted.“Oh, my God.”The words left her mouth quietly.“You know them?”“No.”I shook my head quickly.

THE WOMAN BESIDE LUCIEN CROSSBy the next morning, my name was everywhere.I did not even need to open social media to know it, because the moment I stepped into Ava’s apartment and saw the expression on her face, I already understood how far things had spread overnight. She stood near the kitchen counter holding her phone in one hand and coffee in the other, staring at me with a mixture of concern and disbelief that immediately made my chest tighten again.“You need to see this.”I closed the door behind me slowly, exhaustion weighing heavily on my body after barely sleeping the entire night. Every time I closed my eyes, I kept hearing the same words repeating in my head.“You’re pregnant.”“Your divorce wasn’t about another woman.”“You’re not safe anymore.”Nothing about my life made sense anymore, and the worst part was that everything seemed to be spiraling faster before I even had time to process one disaster properly.“Ava…”My voice came out quieter than usual as I walked towa

THEY ALREADY KNOWThe moment I stepped out of the hospital gates, the cold air hit me again, sharper this time, but it did nothing to clear my head because everything inside me was still unsettled, still shifting in ways I had not fully processed. The city moved as it always did, loud and indifferent, cars passing, people walking, conversations blending into a constant background noise, yet none of it reached me the way it normally would, because my thoughts were still trapped in everything that had just happened, in the words that had been said, in the truth I could no longer deny.I was pregnant.And somehow, that was no longer the most dangerous part of this situation.“You need to move.”Lucien’s voice came from beside me again, calm but firmer than before. When I turned to look at him, there was something different in his expression, something more focused, more alert, as though he was already several steps ahead of whatever was about to happen.“Why?”I asked the question instin
