His Bride: Their Ruin Chapter 13
VERA“Mr Blackwood. We are so honored that you graced us with your presence,” her father muttered, completely ignoring Vera as he inclined his head slightly in a shallow bow.Vera smirked, standing tall beside Orion, who looked thoroughly bored by the interaction.“And you are…?” Orion trailed off lazily.Her father lifted his eyes, jaw tightening before he forced a brittle smile. “Cain Macthorn is the name, Mr Blackwood.”“Cain Macthorn,” Orion drawled, tasting the name as if weighing it. “Can I call you Cain?”Cain froze.His lips parted, eyes widening just a fraction—enough for Vera to notice. The urge to smirk deepened. Her father hated familiarity. Hated being stripped of titles and respect. And Orion was doing it effortlessly.“Y–Yes, Mr Blackwood,” Cain replied stiffly. “Cain is fine.”“Perfect,” Orion sighed. “Cain it is then.”“I see you brought a date,” Cain said, his eyes sliding to Vera at last, oily and sharp. “And my daughter, no less.” The words were forced through clen

VeraThe venue was packed.Maya had not been joking when she said the wedding was for members of the top of the charts of New York. Everywhere Vera looked, there were polished smiles, tailored suits, expensive gowns, and people who carried wealth like second skin. She knew most of them were here because of her father’s influence. Charles was too chicken-shit to pull anything of this scale on his own, and Didi—well, the world she operated in could only ever hold her pride and her useless ego.Vera couldn’t help but feel self-conscious.She hadn’t been to gatherings like this in years. Not since everything fell apart. Now she was walking back into that world—not only as the ghost of a past they had tried to bury, but as the woman they had betrayed and discarded.Every step felt deliberate..“I can already feel the ooze of wealth from where I am standing,” Maya whistled, clutching her purse tighter as she stared around in awe.Vera smiled faintly. “That is my father for you, Maya. Loves

Vera.“If you’ll let me in, Vera, I can tell you.” His voice was gravel against her skin, somehow adding to the chill the open door had already let in.She shook her head, pulling herself out of her fog, and stepped aside to let him in. Her body was still half-trapped in her nightmare, and seeing Orion—when she had just been thinking of him—did nothing to help.Orion stopped in the middle of the sitting room, his hands hidden inside his coat pockets. Vera took him in slowly. He was dressed casually: a black shirt, ash sweatpants, a coat draped over it, somehow telling her he hadn’t come from work.But he looked wet.“You are dripping,” Vera rushed, moving closer without thinking. “Did you run here?”Orion stared at her blankly.“Why would you think I did?”“Well, because you look like you stood under the rain for a long time. And your outfit,” she replied.“I like the rain,” he said simply, shrugging the coat off and hanging it on the stand. “And yes. I was going out for a run before

VeraThe following weeks were busy for Vera—and she loved every second of it.Ever since she’d been dragged out of the kidnappers’ den and forced to confront the full extent of her family’s betrayal, it had as if someone had yanked the rug from under her feet and left her suspended in free fall, with nothing solid to grasp.But these weeks… these weeks gave her something else.Purpose.They filled the hollow spaces inside her, dulled the sharp edges of rage and grief just enough for her to breathe. She knew she would never truly feel whole—not until every enemy had tasted their own undoing—but Vera had learned patience. Revenge didn’t have to be rushed. It only had to be precise.And, oddly enough, making a wedding outfit for her ex–best friend—who also happened to be marrying her ex-husband—was proving surprisingly therapeutic.“This material keeps pulling, Ms. Vera. I swear they lied when they said it was the original.” Maya grumbled, tossing another length of fabric into the growin

ORIONTiny arms spread wide as little legs carried a small figure toward them at full speed. Orion immediately crouched, catching her effortlessly as she collided into him. He lifted her high, spinning slightly, her giggles echoing down the hall.“That’s my princess right there,” he sing-sang, lifting her up and down. She laughed louder, squealing with delight—the sound doing something strange to him, something warm that didn’t quite fit inside the hollow space he usually carried.“How’s my princess doing today?” he asked once she’d settled.The three-year-old only smiled, burying her face into his neck, her tiny hands gripping his collar like he was her anchor.It was only then that Orion noticed the woman standing a few feet away, watching them. Her posture was relaxed, her expression soft, a fond smile resting on her lips as she observed the scene.“Becca,” he greeted curtly.“I didn’t think we’d see you today,” she replied, rocking lightly on her heel.Orion averted his gaze, dism

ORIONVera’s mood shifted the moment she stepped out of the changing room.Orion noticed immediately.She was humming, soft and careless, almost pleased. It was so unlike her earlier disposition that it set him on edge. He slipped his phone back into his pocket and lifted his gaze, studying her with a blank, assessing stare.“Did something happen?” he asked when she didn’t stop.Vera dropped into the seat beside him, crossing her legs with an ease she hadn’t possessed before. A smile played on her lips as she turned toward him. Her eyes were bright. Then she leaned forward, resting the side of her face against her palm, staring at him like he was the most fascinating thing in the room.He lifted a brow.“Do I have something on my face?”“No,” Vera sang lightly, still staring.“…Okay.” Orion drawled, shaking his head. He returned to his emails, though he could feel her gaze burning into him. It was distracting. Annoyingly so.Minutes passed before she spoke again.“Did you know my ex–b
