The door closed with a sound that felt like the end of the world, a metallic echo that sealed the dark around him like a coffin.

Killian Jackson didn’t move. He sat there, eyes fixed on the wall that had stared back at him for thirty-three years, breathing through the ache that had begun to rise from his chest, slow, molten, unstoppable.

A son.

He had a son.

And Elena… she had named him Killian.

He laughed. A sound that scraped out of his throat like broken glass. It wasn’t laughter. It was disbelief made sound. It died halfway through, strangled by the weight in his lungs.

“Killian,” he muttered, the word tasting foreign and holy all at once.

The air was damp and cold. His fingers trembled as he pressed them to his face. He could still see the photo Robert Wolfe had shown him, the boy, the man, the son. Broad shoulders, hard jaw, eyes that didn’t flinch. Eyes that could have been his own.

Robert had watched him closely, feeding on his silence, on the destruction behind it. That devil

This chapter marks one of the most emotionally charged and intimate moments in His to Ruin. After more than thirty years of silence, Killian Jackson finally breaks, and in that breaking, something inside him begins to live again. We see not just the prisoner, but the man: the lover, the father, the human being behind the legend. His grief is quiet but consuming, a storm that has waited decades to be felt.

  • His To Ruin   Chapter Two Hundred and One: Family and Confession

    The small apartment felt impossibly quiet at first. Too quiet for someone used to constant danger, constant alertness, constant calculation. But now, with Mark and Killy having arranged everything, I was learning that quiet didn’t have to mean loneliness, it could mean safety.June arrived first, carrying a tray so heavy I thought she might topple under it. “Sit down before I knock you over, Killian,” she said, balancing the food with ease, and her grin was infectious. “You need to eat. Even a little bite.”Mark hovered near the doorway, arms crossed, smirking like he enjoyed the chaos his sister created. Killy, ever patient, leaned against the kitchen counter, observing me with the kind of quiet pride that made me ache in my chest. He was finally home, and even in this small, bare apartment, he looked like he belonged.The smell of food alone was enough to soften some of the tension I had been carrying. Steaming rice, roasted meat, vegetables seasoned the way only home could do, smell

  • His To Ruin   Chapter Two Hundred: Before the Storm Again

    The small apartment was quiet, almost suspiciously so. It wasn’t home, not really. But it was safe. Enough. And it almost feel like home. Mark had arranged it, spare, functional, nothing flashy. A place where my father and I could rest without worrying about cameras, spies, or Wolfe operatives tracking our every move.I sank onto the couch, elbows on my knees, hands clasped. Killy sat across from me, reading something on his phone, but even that felt like a rare, small comfort.Mark appeared in the doorway, clipboard in hand, eyes sharp as ever. “We’re secure,” he said firmly. “I’ve alerted the boys around town. Any suspicious move, anyone unfamiliar, everything is under watch. You’re off duty for now. Take a Rest.”I shook my head. “I can’t rest. Not yet. Not while Ivy...”“You’ve done enough,” Mark interrupted, voice steady, non-negotiable. “Right now, your job is to be ready. Mentally. Strategically. We’ll handle the perimeter. I am your uncle and it is also my job to keep you safe

    The night was quiet. Too quiet.I had been in my room, going over the rules Robert had laid down, rehearsing each step, each gesture, when the faint click of the door made my heart lurch.Victor.I didn’t need to see him to know it. The air shifted, charged with tension. But something was off. Not the calculated predator I had known. Not the composed, dangerous man I had been forced to respect.He was rushed. Panicked. Careless.He stormed into the room, eyes scanning, fingers gripping the edge of the desk for balance. “Where...” he started, voice sharp, and then froze when he saw me.I froze too.“How...how did you..?” I stammered, realizing immediately something was wrong. His entrance wasn’t smooth, controlled, it was hurried. Unplanned.Victor took a step back, hands rising slightly as if to defend himself against an invisible crowd. "Wondered what made you change your mind, what made you decided to walk into the house by yourself. Did he reject you? Does killian want you no more?"

    They didn’t tell me my mother was here. I only knew because I heard her voice, soft, familiar, carried down the hallway like a memory I wasn’t allowed to touch yet.My chest tightened instantly.I moved toward the door before I could stop myself, fingers barely brushing the handle when it opened from the outside. One of the maids stood there, posture stiff, eyes apologetic.“I’m sorry, ma’am,” she said quietly. “Mr. Wolfe says it’s not the right time.”Not the right time.Those words had followed me my entire life.I stepped back, heart pounding, listening as another voice, older, colder, cut through the space.“She shouldn’t see anyone yet.”Robert Wolfe.They are restricting me from seeing my family, my own mother now. I didn’t need to see him to feel his presence. It filled the wing like smoke.“She needs focus,” he continued. “Sentiment will weaken her.”My mother tried again. I could hear the strain now.“She’s my daughter Robert. You have no right to keep her away from me."“An

    Mark stood by the window, arms crossed, eyes fixed on nothing in particular. My father sat opposite me, hands folded, jaw tight. No one spoke for a long moment.Mark stepped closer, his voice lowering, hardening.“We don’t just cut off a branch. We cut the root. We bring the Wolfe empire down so completely. That's the plan now."My father leaned forward now.“This has been coming for a long time, son. Robert Wolfe didn’t just hurt Ivy. He hurt us. He ruined our lives. He built his power on blood and silence.”“And Victor,” Mark added, eyes dark, “is just the monster that grew out of it.”The air shifted.This wasn’t theory anymore.This was decision.“So we hunt them,” I said quietly.Mark nodded.“Yes. Strategically. Slowly. We strip them first, money, allies, leverage. We expose what they’ve buried, one layer at a time.”He looked directly at me then.“And you,” he said, “are the key.”I stiffened.“You know where the bodies are buried.”I met his gaze.Realized he wasn’t speaking in

  • His To Ruin   Chapter One Hundred and Ninety-Six: The Root of the Problem

    The room was too quiet.Not peaceful, never that, but the kind of silence that pressed against your ears and made your thoughts louder than they should be. Mark had spread files across the table. Killy stood by the window, staring out like the city owed him answers.I couldn’t sit.I paced, back and forth, fists clenching and unclenching, every nerve in my body screaming the same thing.We were wasting time.“We go in,” I said finally, stopping short. “Tonight. We hit the estate hard, pull Ivy out, and disappear before Victor even understands what happened.”Mark didn’t look up right away. He just exhaled slowly, like a man choosing patience over violence.“And then what?” he asked.I turned to him sharply. “Then she’s safe.”“For how long?” he asked calmly.That stopped me.Mark lifted his head then, eyes sharp, calculating, nothing emotional about him at all.“You extract her tonight, Victor and Robert don’t suddenly give up. They escalate. They hunt her. They hunt you. They burn eve
