CASPIAN

Rowan fucking Zane.

The bastard actually had the guts to not only kill Ivan, but to send Aria flowers immediately after.

“You didn't think I knew, did you?” Rowan’s voice held a nutty note that rubbed me wrong.

Aria took my arm and I looked down at her. Her eyes were wide and worried, almost scared.

“Who is that?” She mouthed, smoothing her fingers down my arm as though to calm me down. I guess she could read the anger emanating off me.

Rowan continued before I could answer her. “I bet you want to know how I knew huh? You don't have to worry about that, all you need to know is that I'll always protect what's mine. Ivan overstepped and he got what he deserved. Are you happy, baby?”

My irritation converged into a boiling pot of anger that felt like it could spill over at any second.

“Rowan?” I snarled. Aria’s eyes widened and she jerked away from me like the word had physically hurt her.

“Caspian? What the hell are you doing with Aria’s phone?” He snapped.

“I knew you were

ARIAThe bastard had the guts to smirk at me. “Think about it, Aria. Think about them, they deserve a family.”“They have one. It's just not with you, and it never will be.” I said coldly. “Aria! Don't try me. You won't get another chance like this.” I could hear the warning in Rowan’s voice and it made me stop. “What are you going to do that you haven't already done, Rowan?” His mouth curved, but there was no humor in it. “There are so many things I could do. Don’t make me have to do them.”“You mean like threatening me in public? Because that’s what this looks like.” I took a step closer, staring at him the way you stare at something you’re ready to burn to the ground. “You don’t scare me anymore.”“You should be scared,” he said as his hand shot out, closing around my arm. His fingers dug in, hard enough to leave bruises. He pulled me closer until I could feel his breath on my face. “You don’t know what you’re playing with.”I didn’t think or even pause to reconsider. I slapped
Her Billionaire Ex-husband's Regret 174. ANOTHER CHANCE?
ARIA The first thing I felt when I woke was heat. Strong, steady heat, and the weight of an arm thrown across my waist like it owned me. It was Caspian. For a second, I just stared at him. He was asleep, bare chest rising and falling, his jaw hard even in rest. He looked like nothing could touch him. I hated that it made me feel safe. My body moved before my brain caught up. I traced a line down his chest with my fingertips. His lashes flicked up, and his grey eyes locked on mine. The kind that stripped you down even when you were already naked under the sheets. “Couldn’t sleep?” His voice was gravel, thick with sleep. “Something like that.” His hand slid from my waist to my thigh in one slow drag. That was all it took. One pull and I was under him as his mouth crushed mine. The kiss wasn’t sweet, and it wasn’t careful. It was teeth, tongue, and the sound of the headboard hitting the wall. His hands pinned mine above my head like I’d ever get away from him, and he
Her Billionaire Ex-husband's Regret 173. SHOCKING INTEL
CASPIAN Getting the kids into the car was easy enough. Grandma called me aside for a moment, her eyes fixed on them. “Those are Aria’s kids?” She asked, still staring as Nyx helped Nylah first and then Lark into their seats.. “Yes, they are.” “They're gorgeous,” she murmured. “They look familiar. I have a feeling I've seen them before.” “I don't believe you have, Grandma. Aria barely lets them out of her sight.” I leaned in and brushed my lips over her cold cheeks. “I'll take them home now.” I walked away, flexing my fingers so they didn't fist up at my sides. Camilla and Aria’s father were long gone, Zara had left with Talia like a drenched rat. But the anger stayed inside my chest like a dead weight. The night was supposed to be perfect. It had almost been perfect, but her family had to ruin it as always. Aria was still in the front seat, looking like she'd just managed to fall asleep, instead of fainting right out front the cold pool. “Is mommy okay?” Lark asked, bi
Her Billionaire Ex-husband's Regret 172. INTO THE COLD
ARIAThe air was knocked straight out of my lungs.Maybe I was even trapped in ice because I didn't even get a second to scream. Vaguely, I realized I could still hear the music from the party even underwater. I kicked hard, breathing the surface of the water, fighting my dress which wrapped around me, and tried to drag me back into the water. I could see that Zara was standing right by the edge, smiling like she had just won a prize, like she hasn't just shoved me into the cold pool.She bent, her perfect manicure resting on her knees, her eyes smug with satisfaction. “What's wrong, Aria? You didn't see that coming? Caspian isn't here to save you?” My stomach tightened with anger. For half a second, I considered walking away, and then I remembered every moment Zara has done this, every moment she had held power over me. Never again. I didn't answer her, instead, I climbed out of the pool, the water pooling around my legs. Zara’s smirk widened into a smile. “Oh, you look soaked
Her Billionaire Ex-husband's Regret 171. YES, YES I WILL MARRY YOU
ARIA“Caspian?” I whispered. I mean I knew it wasn't real, I knew we had decided we would do this, but my heart beat was saying differently. “From the moment I met you, Aria, I knew I wanted you. In my life, in my bed. I want you to be mine forever, Aria. Please marry me.” Caspian’s voice was earnest and assured. I was drowning in his eyes. So I nodded, because what else could I do when he said things like that? I held my fingers out, and he slid the heavy ring onto it. "It's fake, it's fake. He's doing this to get fifty percent of the company."I chanted the words in my head, just as a subtle reminder to my heart which was racing. Scooping me into his arms, Caspian lips meshed with mine. Kissing me, he twirled me around to the sound of music and applause. This was happening, this was really happening. I was officially engaged to Caspian Finnick. I closed my eyes, inhaling his scent, and only realizing when my feet touched the ground that they were shaking. His fingers sta
Her Billionaire Ex-husband's Regret 170. THE FOLDER OF REVENGE
ARIA I could see Zara’s eyes looking at the decor, the guests, and finally me. A comment must have been brewing just on the edge of her tongue. I didn't give her the time to pull the first punch. Stopping just in front of them, I smiled at my father, leaning in to hug him. “Welcome, Father.” He hugged me back, his body feeling smaller than I remembered. But what did I remember? When was the last time he held me in his arms like this? “Happy birthday, Aria. Everything looks beautiful,” my father said, his eyes still sweeping the venue just as Zara and Talia were doing. “Oh this? Caspian planned everything. I had no idea he had all this on his sleeve.” Smiling up at Caspian, I stretched, placing a kiss on his cheeks. Suddenly, my lunch didn't sit well in my stomach because Zara leaned forward and I knew the last thing I wanted to do was hug her. Holding my arm out, I shifted away from her and slid my arm into father's. From the anchor of his arm, I smiled at Zara and Tali
