**Isabella’s POV**

I stood frozen in the middle of the empty road, my car door was still open behind me, my engine ticking as it cooled. The woman knelt on the asphalt a few feet away, her knees scraped, and her palms pressed to the ground like she was trying to hold the earth still.

Her dark hair hung in messy strands across her face, shoulders shaking with sobs that sounded more exhausted than dramatic. She looked up at me again with swollen, red, pleading eyes...and repeated the words slo

    **Isabella’s POV**The candlelight flickered between us as we sat at the dining table, our plates half-empty from our late-night dinner. Six whole months had passed since everything with Alexander finally settled.“So,” I said, sipping my wine, “we’ve gone through almost everything tonight. Let’s keep talking. Have I forgiven Alexander? Yes. It took me a long time, Lucian. A really long time. I had so many nightmares, so many moments where I wanted to scream at the memory of him. But I’ve come to peace with it now. I see how broken he was too. I’ve let it go.”Lucian reached across the table and took my hand, squeezing gently. “I’m so proud of you for that, baby. I know how hard it was. You didn’t have to forgive him, but the fact that you did… it shows how strong your heart is. I love you even more for it.”I smiled softly. “Thank you. Now tell me honestly—did you really take over Knight Corp like everyone expected?”He shook his head with a small laugh. “No, I didn’t. The company wa

    **Isabella’s POV**There was a huge knock on the door. I hurried to open it, thinking it was probably a delivery or something. Lucian was upstairs in his study.The second I pulled the door open, I froze.“Alexander?” My voice came out tiny.He stood there looking exhausted, bruises still fading on his face, but it was him. The same Alexander who had pinned me down that night. The memory slammed into me so hard I couldn’t breathe.I screamed.“Lucian!” My voice cracked as terror flooded every inch of me.Footsteps thundered down the stairs. Lucian appeared in seconds, his eyes wild.“Isabella!” He wrapped his arms around me instantly, holding me tight against his chest like I might collapse. “I’ve got you. I’ve got you, baby. Breathe.”Alexander took a step back, his hands raised. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have come. This was a terrible idea. I didn’t mean to scare you.”Lucian kept one arm around me, his body shielding mine. “Alexander, what the hell? Why didn’t you tell me you were co

    **Chloe’s POV**Ryan walked into the room with a big grin, dropping a thick file on the bedside table with a soft thud.“Alexander dropped the case,” he said cheerfully, his eyes sparkling.I sat up straighter, ignoring the slight pull in my side. “What???”He laughed, nodding. “Yeah, you heard me right. The lawsuit is gone. His lawyer called mine this morning and withdrew everything. No court date, no nothing.”“How?” I asked, my heart racing. “How did that even happen? I thought he was dead set on dragging me through hell.”Ryan shrugged, still smiling. “I honestly don’t know how. The lawyer just said the plaintiff decided to drop all charges and move on. No explanation given. But it’s official. You’re free from that stress.”I let out a shaky breath, a huge smile breaking across my face. “Oh my God, Ryan… I can’t believe it. I was so scared I’d have to fight him while still lying here. I didn’t want any more drama on top of everything else.”He sat on the edge of the bed, looking a

    **Lena’s POV**“Oh my God, how much is all this?” I asked the cashier, staring at the mountain of groceries on the belt.The cashier smiled brightly. “It’s already been paid for, ma’am. The total is covered.”I blinked hard. “Paid for? By who? I didn’t use any coupon or anything.”The cashier nodded toward the side. “By her.”I turned around fast and there she was — Sarah — standing a few feet away with her hands in her pockets, looking nervous but smiling.“Sarah?” I whispered, then louder, “Sarah! What are you doing here?”She walked closer, her eyes locked on mine. “Hey, Lena.”“Why did you pay for my stuff? That was a lot of money. You didn’t have to do that.”Sarah shrugged, still smiling softly. “I wanted to. I saw you pushing the cart and… I don’t know, it felt like the right thing. Can we get out of here first? Talk somewhere quieter?”I looked around the busy mall, then back at her. “Out of here? Like, right now? In public? You and me together?”She nodded, her smile growing

    **Isabella’s POV**“What do you bloody mean?” I snapped, my eyes wide with disbelief. “Reunited with Alexander? After everything he did to you? After he tried to destroy you?”Lucian reached for my hand but I pulled back fast. “Isabella, please, just listen...”“No!” I cut him off, my voice shaking. “You don’t get to drop that on me after disappearing all night and expect me to be calm! You asked me to trust you, Lucian. You promised no more secrets. And now you’re telling me you’re hugging the same man who kidnapped me? Who pointed a gun at my head?”“I know how it sounds,” he said, his voice low and steady, trying to pull me back into his arms. “But it’s not what you think. Sit down with me for a minute. Let me explain.”I crossed my arms tight across my chest. “Explain what? That you’ve forgiven the monster who ruined both our lives? I’m not sitting anywhere until you tell me why the hell you’re defending him!”Lucian exhaled hard, running a hand through his hair. “Alexander didn’t

    **Isabella’s POV**“Lucian?” I yanked the front door open, my heart slamming against my ribs. “What the hell? It’s barely six in the morning and I heard the car screeching in like you were running from something!”He stood there on the doorstep, his eyes were tired, his shirt was wrinkled, while he said nothing.I stepped closer, my voice rising. “You can’t keep doing this to me. You asked me out, we finally started dating, and then poof—you disappear for days? I’ve been pacing this house, checking my phone every five minutes, wondering if you’re hurt or dead or just done with me!”Lucian stayed quiet, just looking at me.I jabbed a finger at his chest. “I hate this side of you. The mysterious, closed-off version that keeps me guessing. We’re supposed to be together, right? So why do I feel like I’m dating a ghost? Tell me what’s going on in your life, Lucian. Stop shutting me out!”Still no words.Then he moved fast, his arms wrapped around me so tight I gasped. I tried to push back

    **Lucian’s POV**The garage lights buzzed overhead like dying insects, throwing harsh yellow pools across the concrete. My car door was still open, and my keys still dangling from the lock, the engine was quiet now. The suppressor on Alexander’s gun gleamed dull silver against my temple coldly, st

    **Lena’s POV** The knock came again...three sharp raps that sounded like gunshots in the tiled silence. We both froze mid-breath because we were both caught up in the tension. “Shit,” Sarah hissed, already scrambling. I snatched my bra off the sink, yanked it on with shaking hands, I missed the

    **Lena's POV**Daisy leaned against the door like she’d just claimed the whole restroom as her personal stage. Her maxi skirt swished against the tile, her high-neck blouse buttoned to the literal top, and yet here she was....her eyes glittering, while her mouth was curved in a smile that was equal

    **Chloe’s POV**The hospital room felt smaller every time someone spoke. The beeping monitor beside me kept counting my heartbeats like it was trying to remind me I was still alive, still here, still carrying something inside me that I hadn’t asked for. I kept my good hand pressed low on my stomac
