Rosa POV

The words sat in my chest like something waiting to be said.

Not painful anymore. Not sharp or scary or any of the things they had been in the beginning when I was still running from them. They were just present. Warm. Demanding eventually.

I felt them building for days after the phone call with his mother. They were there when I woke up and they were there when I went to bed and they were there in all the spaces between. I circled around them in everything I did.

I reached for him now

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    The Party

    Kylie's POVThe end of first term party was in a venue off campus, a rented space with low lights and loud music and too many people from the forensics and law faculties packed into one room. I came with Rosa and my other friends and I told myself I was not looking for him. I told myself I was here to celebrate the end of exams and to drink cheap wine and to dance with my friends and to not think about Luca for one night.I spent the first twenty minutes looking for him.I scanned the room while I talked to Priya. I looked over Rosa's shoulder while she told me about her criminal procedure paper. I glanced at the door every time someone new walked in. I was not looking for him. I was just aware of the room. I was just paying attention to who was here. I was just—There he was.He was across the room talking to someone I did not recognize, a man from the law faculty, someone tall with dark hair who was gesturing while he talked. Luca was listening. His back was partially to me and he w

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    What He Knows

    Kylie's POVWe were studying in the library on a Thursday night. The same corner table. The same lamp. The same two coffees, because he always brought me one now and I had stopped pretending I did not expect it. The project was almost finished and exams were approaching and we had fallen into a rhythm that felt less like working together and more like something I did not have a name for.He was reading from his textbook. I was reviewing my toxicology notes. The library was quiet and the city was dark outside the windows and everything was normal.Then he spoke without looking up from his book."How's your mother?"I looked up. My pen stopped moving. I stared at him across the table."What?" I said.He turned a page. Still did not look up."Your mother. You mentioned she had a hospital appointment this week. I was wondering how it went."I stared at him. My heart was doing something I did not invite it to do."I didn't mention that to you," I said.He looked up then. He held my gaze ac

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    She Catches Up

    Luca's POVI started meeting her outside her forensics lectures.Not every time. That would have been too much. Too obvious. Too easy for her to dismiss as routine. Every third time, approximately. Irregular enough that she could not predict it. Irregular enough that she would think about it before every lecture, wondering if I would be there, wondering what it meant when I was and what it meant when I was not.When I was there, I fell into step beside her and we walked and talked. When I was not there, she noticed the absence.That was the point.Today I was there. I stood against the wall outside the lecture hall with my hands in my pockets and my eyes on the door. Students filed out in groups, talking and laughing and checking their phones. I waited. I was good at waiting.She came out. She was looking down at her phone, scrolling through something, not paying attention to where she was going. Then she looked up and saw me against the wall.Her face did something.It was small. Hal

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Admit It

    Kylie's POVI met Rosa at the coffee cart the next morning. The sky was gray and the air was cold and I had not slept well because I had been thinking about Luca's face when he said I'm not trying to be subtle anymore. I needed to talk to someone who would not tell me I was overthinking. I needed to talk to Rosa.She was already there when I arrived. She had her coffee and her arms were crossed and she was looking at me with that expression she wore when she knew something had happened and she was waiting for me to tell her."He booked a study room for me," I said.Rosa did not react. She just stood there with her coffee and her crossed arms and her patient face."Yesterday. I was looking for a place to study and the library was full and the front desk said there was one room available under a Navarro booking. I went up and he was there. He had coffee waiting for me. My order. One sugar, oat milk."Rosa took a sip of her coffee. "He booked it in advance.""Yes.""Knowing you'd need it

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Booked

    Kylie's POVEnd of term exams were approaching and the library was full.Every table was taken and every corner had someone hunched over notes and every quiet space was filled with the sound of typing and highlighting and stressed breathing. I had been walking through the building for twenty minutes, checking every floor, every hallway, every hidden nook I had discovered in my first year. Nothing. No space. No room. No corner quiet enough to think.I went to the front desk.The woman behind the counter looked up at me with the tired expression of someone who had been asked the same question a hundred times that day."Any study rooms available?" I asked.She clicked something on her computer. She scrolled. She frowned."There's one," she said. "But it's booked under a Navarro booking.""What does that mean?""It means a student with that surname has a standing reservation for the same room every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. They get priority. You can go up and knock, but if they're

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    How You Say My Name

    Luca's POVAfter dinner the group moved outside.The restaurant was warm and crowded and the night air was cold and sharp and everyone spread out on the sidewalk, pairing off into smaller conversations, the group redistributing naturally around the steps and the streetlights. I stood near the edge of the group, watching, not participating, the way I always did.Kylie ended up beside me.It was not an accident. I had positioned myself where I knew she would exit, where the flow of people would push her toward me. But she did not know that. To her, it was natural. The group shifted and suddenly she was next to me, close enough that I could smell her shampoo, something soft and clean and faintly sweet."Luca," she said.She said my name. Just my name. Just Luca. But something about the way she said it had shifted. It was not the careful politeness of the first few weeks, when she was still trying to figure out who I was and what I wanted. It was easy. Comfortable. Like she was used to sa

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Embarrassment Level: Catastrophic

    Rosa’s POVI woke up slowly, light leaked through heavy curtains in thin gold stripes across the bed. My mouth tasted like metal and regret.My head throbbed in time with my heartbeat. I tried to sit up and the room tilted so hard I had to grab the sheets to stay upright.That’s when I noticed Kyli

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    One Love, One Devil

    Raffaele’s POV The penthouse felt different up here, away from the girls downstairs. Luca’s space was all sleek lines and dark wood, a mirror of our family’s world, but with Kylie’s touches scattered around: a soft throw blanket on the couch, fresh flowers on the bar cart. It made the place fee

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Caught

    Rosa’s POVThe second I realized he’d seen me flip the photo my face caught fire all over again. I stood there frozen in his office doorway, robe slipping off one shoulder, heart slamming so loud I was sure he could hear it. I’d been caught red-handed snooping through his things, touching something

  • He Wants Me Dead Or Alive    Fever

    Raffaele’s POVThe doctor stepped back from the bed, peeling off his gloves with that calm practiced snap that always made me want to punch something. “Her drink was spiked,” he said, voice level like he was reading a weather report. “Rohypnol most likely, judging by the symptoms and the timeline.
