KISAREL.

"I think I have another option," Elgin said, buttoning his cuffs with his tie looped around his left shoulder. "Oceans won't see this one coming."

I sighed and rolled my eyes as I pulled my oversized polo shirt over my head. “He sees everything. No matter how smart you think you’re being about it, he always finds a way to be five steps ahead.”

Elgin paused like that offended him personally.

Then his eyes brightened. “How about you leave the country?” He paused, tilting his head like he

    KISAREL.The first thing I felt was my arm. It was burning so hot and deep, like someone had lit a match under my skin and left it there.The second thing I felt was the cold, sticky sweat plastering my hair to my forehead, soaking through whatever thin fabric I was putting on.And at the same time, I also felt a kind of feverish warmth... It was not the normal fever... It wasn't the kind that required a blanket and a plate of hot soup to quench.I tried to open my eyes, but my lashes stuck together, and my head pounded so hard I thought something inside it might split if I moved too fast.I tried again, and I was met with a white ceiling, fluorescent lights, and the beeping of a machine somewhere to my left.Hospital.I was in a hospital."Arel." Elgin's voice came from somewhere close. It sounded wrecked. "Arel, can you hear me? Open your eyes. Please open your eyes."I turned my head slowly, and the movement made the room tilt.He was standing beside me the next second.He looked wr

    KISAREL.Elgin leaned toward me as Nessa walked farther away from us. “She is good.”“I know.”“But, that worries me.”“Everything worries you.”“No, chérie. Bad people are easy. You see the teeth, and you prepare for biting.” His eyes stayed on Nessa as she stopped in front of a stall glowing under amber lights. “Sweet people are complicated. Sometimes the sugar is there to hide the poison.”I looked at him.Then Nessa turned and waved us over, her smile bright enough to make the warning feel far away.“Come on,” she called. “If you’re slow, I’ll eat yours too.”Elgin straightened his tie like he had just been challenged to defend his bloodline. “Well,” he murmured, walking ahead of me, “if she is poison, at least she comes with dessert.”I rolled my eyes and followed him.*“This woman with the recipe,” he said, after his first bite, holding the cake carefully, “must be protected by law.”Nessa grinned. “I told you.”“You did not prepare me emotionally.”“You looked too serious.

Even better. Ask Jace to give you a job at his company.” His eyes lit up. "Yes. Yes, chérie. That’s it. Oceans can’t influence that, can he? Jace is your fiancé. He owns his own company. You work there, and Mr. Stark can sit in his glass office and choke on his control issues.”I looked away and adjusted the hem of the polo around my hips.Elgin sounded like he had just discovered the solution to both

    KISAREL.Jace's car pulled up to the front entrance of Stark Sovereign Capital.He killed the engine and turned to me, his hand coming up to cup my face before I could reach for the doorknob."I had a really great time yesterday," he said as he leaned across the console and took my lips in his.When he pulled back, his thumb brushed once over my cheek. “Have a good day, baby.”I forced a small smile. “You too.”I stepped out of the car and straightened my dress—burgundy, fitted, with a neckline that made me check myself twice before leaving Elgin's apartment. He had called it revenge dressing.I shut the door, and Jace waited until I turned away before driving off.My heels clicked against the pavement as I turned toward the entrance.And there he was.Oceans was standing near the revolving doors with Harold and two other men I didn't recognize. He was wearing a charcoal suit, a white shirt, and no tie. His dark hair was brushed back from his forehead, and his silver-grey eyes were fi

    OCEANS.Seeing Kiss with Jace did something violent to my self-control.For one second, the whole restaurant narrowed down to her hand under his.His hand.On her.Across a table I did not own, in a restaurant I had not chosen for her, with a man whose face I had imagined breaking more times than I cared to count.She was wearing black. A dress I had never seen before—one that hugged her body like it had been painted on, with a neckline that dipped low and a slit that showed too much of her thigh.Her hair was different. It looked softer and wavier. It fell over one shoulder, leaving her neck bare.I almost stopped walking.Moonie said something beside me, but I didn't hear it. My eyes were locked on the woman who had walked out of my house on Friday night, texted me yesterday, and I had not responded to her because I didn't know what the fuck to say.She looked beautiful.That was the first problem.Then the doors closed behind me, and the sound made her look up.Our eyes met, and he

    KISAREL.“You can’t keep on doing this to yourself, chérie,” Elgin said from the dining room.I did not answer.I stayed curled up on the couch with the blanket pulled to my chin, staring at nothing in particular. The television was on, but I had no idea what was playing.My phone was face down beside me. I had checked it every few minutes for the past two days, and every time I checked, the screen was empty.Oceans hadn't even tried to reach me since I left his house on Friday night.On Saturday morning, I woke up expecting an apology, an explanation, or something. Instead, I opened the Gram and saw Moonie's posts. She was in his house, his living room, his guest room, everywhere...In one of her posts, there were shopping bags in the background. The caption said: "When your man is obsessed with spoiling you."I threw up after reading it.I had texted him yesterday like the idiot I clearly was.'Are you okay?'But he had not replied.Later yesterday, she posted again.Cake tasting.He
