Elena's POV

I swear, if I survived today without strangling someone, it would be a miracle.

“Daisies,” I hissed under my breath, glaring at the unfortunate florist standing in front of me. “I told you yesterday—yesterday, mind you—that Nina doesn’t want daisies. Not in the centerpieces, not in the bouquets, not anywhere. And what do I see? A table covered in daisies.”

The man flinched, clutching his clipboard like it might save his life. “Sorry, ma’am, it was a mix-up at the supplier—”

“I don’t care if the supplier had a spiritual crisis and ran away to the Himalayas,” I snapped, pointing toward the arrangements. “Change. Them. Out. Now.”

“Yes, ma’am.” He scurried off like I’d set his shoes on fire.

I closed my eyes and pinched the bridge of my nose. God, I was turning into a monster. Or maybe Nina’s insanity was contagious. At this point, I couldn’t tell anymore.

The day had started before dawn, when my phone buzzed violently on the nightstand. For one, blissful second I thought it

  • His Beauty Her Beast   67. Sibling's Talk

    Elena's POV The days blurred into each other, like someone had thrown me onto a rollercoaster without asking if I wanted the ride. Up, down, loop after loop—there wasn’t a moment to breathe. It felt like every time I tried to catch up, something new landed on my shoulders, and before I could deal with it, Nina was already calling my name again. Tomorrow was her wedding. Tomorrow. The word alone made my chest feel tight. It wasn’t even my wedding, and yet I’d been dragged into every last detail like I’d been hired as her unpaid planner. Nina was relentless. She didn’t want to just supervise—she wanted perfection. And I, lucky me, had somehow become her right hand, the one she leaned on more than anyone else these past few days. If she noticed a ribbon out of place, she’d call me. If the cake delivery was five minutes late, she’d send me to call the bakery. If her bridesmaids’ shoes didn’t all match in shade, she wanted me to fix it. It was exhausting. And yet… there was somethin

    Rowan's POVI stood by the floor-to-ceiling window of my office, the glass cool under my palm, my jaw tight enough to crack teeth.And what did I see below me?The biggest jackass in a ten-mile radius leaning down to kiss Elena like he had every goddamn right to.I narrowed my eyes, my chest burning with something I refused to call jealousy. But who the hell was I kidding? My blood was boiling so hot I swore steam was about to fog the glass.Damon fucking Volkov.His hand near her, his mouth brushing hers so casually, like it was the most natural thing in the world. Like he didn’t know there was someone watching who wanted to march down those steps, grab him by the collar, and strangle him until that smug little green-flag smile of his turned into something less flattering—say, unconsciousness.“Biggest jackass alive,” I muttered under my breath, watching them part slowly. He had the audacity—the audacity—to smile at her afterward, all soft and careful, like he’d just blessed her with

  • His Beauty Her Beast   65. Goodmorning Love

    Elena's POV The first thing I felt was heat. Not the uncomfortable kind, but the gentle warmth of sunlight streaming across my face. I groaned and buried my cheek deeper into the pillow, trying to hide from it, but it was too late. My body was awake even if my brain protested. I cracked my eyes open, squinting at the golden slant of light cutting through my curtains. The air smelled faintly of coffee and… was that bacon? I frowned, sitting up slowly, stretching my arms above my head until I heard the satisfying crack of my spine. My hair was a tangled mess, my T-shirt twisted around my waist from all the shifting I must’ve done in the night. The memory of last night flickered in—Damon asleep on the couch, the way he had pulled me down beside him, the word stay whispered so unconsciously that it had rooted me in place. I rubbed my face, shaking off the strange warmth still lingering from that memory. No. Not going there. Not this morning. Dragging myself out of bed, I went to

    Elena's POV The glass in my father’s hand caught the light as he tipped it back, amber liquid swirling in the dim glow of the lamp. The living room looked different tonight—warmer, louder, alive in a way it hadn’t been in years. The old rug, frayed around the edges, was littered with half-empty bottles and snack wrappers Nate had probably dumped without a second thought. The coffee table was crowded with mismatched glasses, condensation leaving dark rings on the wood that I knew would drive me insane tomorrow morning.And then there was Damon—sitting comfortably like he had every right to be here, his jacket slung carelessly over the back of a chair, his shirtsleeves rolled up, the top two buttons undone. He looked… relaxed. Too relaxed. My chest tightened at the sight.“Hey, Elena, come, come…” Nate’s voice broke my spiralling thoughts. He leaned forward on the couch, his grin boyish and lazy, clearly half-tipsy already. His words dragged a little, his drawl giving away the alcohol

    Elena's POV The rest of my day felt… off. Like the universe had decided to tilt a fraction, just enough to make me constantly feel like I was leaning sideways. Everything around me looked the same—the paperwork stacked on my desk, the glowing blue of my computer screen, the muted murmurs of the office—but nothing inside me sat right. Rowan had been strange earlier, conflicted in a way I hadn’t seen before. Usually he was all sharp edges and cold calculation, like he’d been carved out of steel, but today… there were cracks. His father being in the building, the way his eyes kept drifting, the way his words had faltered—it all stayed with me. And me, sitting at my desk with my half-broken focus, I couldn’t shake it. I should have just been working. File after file, signatures, reports, numbers—boring, dry things I usually buried myself in to block out the rest of the world. Today, though, I caught myself staring at the same document for ten minutes straight without actually reading i
