Rylan POV

One of the guards wanted to open the car door but I signalled him to let him know it was my job. I opened the car door myself.

Aurora paused, surprised, before letting me guide her gently. I crouched, lifting her feet carefully and settling them into the car as if she were something fragile, something precious I couldn’t afford to mishandle.

When I slid in beside her, I stayed close. Closer than usual.

Halvorsen took the front seat without a word, already understanding her place.

Aurora turned and wrapped her arms around me suddenly.

“I thought you were in London, you also left without taking permission. ” she said softly. “Did you have fun in London without me?”

Her smile hit me like a blade.

Because London wasn't exactly where I had fun. I was only standing in the rain, watching the man who I thought was my father live peacefully with another woman.

And worse… knowing that man had destroyed her family too. Will she forgive me if I tell her?

Blarke took her mother and ran

  • Marriage of Deceit   Perfect Man 2

    AURORA POV He spoke, his voice calm yet commanding, filling the room with authority. “I, Rylan Blackwood, stand in full support of my wife, Aurora Grey, as the President of Grey Group. When I thought the heavens were never in support of me. They sent my Angel for me. How can such a perfect man be mine? I was still standing in the middle of the boardroom, my pulse loud in my ears, my hands clenched tight at my sides -trying not to let anyone see how close I was to breaking down in tears seeing him. His strong arms wrapped around me.I gasped as his familiar warmth pulled me in, solid and real, making me overcome the loneliness. “Hey…” his voice murmured near my ear. “I’m sorry I’m late.” Rylan! I whispered. I buried my face in his chest without thinking. The scent of him was clean, and familiar that it hit me so hard my eyes burned. “I’m proud of you,” he said softly, one hand patting my back, slow and reassuring. “You stood up for yourself.” My heart swelled so painfully I

  • Marriage of Deceit   AIRPORT CHAOS

    RYLAN POVI heard the sound of a bike and turned to see it. The low, aggressive growl of an engine slicing through the chaos outside the airport drew my attention instantly. People turned, guards stiffened and then she appeared.Nicky!! What does she want? I thought. She pulled up on her power bike like she owned the entire terminal, black helmet, leather jacket, fury written into every sharp movement. She drove past me with speed and almost locked me down. She didn’t even look at me as she dismounted. Her face was carved from stone. She was Cold, Dominating, and felt Dangerous.Two black cars screeched in behind her, guards spilling out in perfect formation.She ignored me completely, like I was invisible to her.One of her drivers rushed toward her, breathless. “Thank goodness you came by yourself with the bike. Traffic was insane, we had to reroute twice.”One of the guards took the bike from her quickly, then another lifted his laptop, fingers flying. “She’s still here,” he

  • Marriage of Deceit   WAR!

    NICKY POVI slammed my palm on the desk.“Are you out of your mind?” I snapped. “You brought them back into the company like nothing happened? Dad, I chased them and I have reasons. Why can't you listen?”My father, Alberto, stood by the window, his back to me, hands clasped behind him like a man who believed silence could still control a storm.Fiona sat comfortably on the sofa.Laden stood beside her.And Orla-Orla was crying. She was always crying like the clueless Victim.“She slapped me,” Orla sobbed, pressing her hand to her cheek. “Onika slapped me without fear… without even thinking of you, Uncle.”I turned sharply. “Don’t call me that, who are you to call me by my name?” I said coldly. “And don’t lie. You did bad…”Alberto finally turned. His eyes were tired, heavy with memories he refused to release.“Onika,” he said, using my real name the way he always did when he wanted authority. “You should try to be kind to Orla. Please Onika..”I laughed bitterly. “Kind? After everyth

  • Marriage of Deceit   OBSESSION

    Rylan POVSilver’s front door opened with a sharp click.I didn’t move. I heard her humming like a bird as she walked in.I stayed exactly where I was- seated on the single couch in the center of the living room, one leg crossed over the other, my posture relaxed and deliberate. The house smelled faintly of jasmine and old lilies. The lights were on, every corner was visible.She stepped inside.The moment her eyes landed on me, the color drained from her face.For half a second, Silver froze.Then instinct took over. She turned to run.“Don’t,” I said calmly.She didn’t listen.She barely took two steps before the guard at the door stepped forward and blocked her path like a wall of steel. She crashed into him, breath leaving her lungs in a startled gasp.“Move!” she cried, clawing at his arm. “Get out of my way!”He didn’t budge.Behind her, the door shut.Slowly, I uncrossed my legs and stood.Her knees trembled as she turned back to face me.That was when she saw them.Lucian, her

    Silver raised the knife slowly.Aurora was still chained to the bed, wrists cuffed, her head lolling to the side, lashes fluttering as the struggle to pull her hands off the cuffs. Her breathing was shallow and uneven. She had no strength to fight, not yet.Silver’s hands trembled, but her eyes were steady. Cold and Burning with something far older than anger.“You see this knife. I kept it for you all this time. I bought it at an auction in London. Specifically for slitting your throat.”The blade glinted as she lifted it closer to her neck.Then….“STOP!”The door burst open, Dylan stormed in.Before Silver could react, he kicked her hard.The knife flew from her hand, skidding across the concrete floor with a sharp metallic screech.Silver spun around. “Why are you here? What are you doing?!” she screamed.Dylan didn’t answer.He crossed the room in two strides and grabbed her by the neck, slamming her against the wall. His fingers tightened mercilessly as he lifted her off the grou

  • Marriage of Deceit   What belongs to Silver?

    Aurora POVDarkness lifted slowly, like a heavy curtain being dragged away from my eyes.My head throbbed. My body felt wrong, too still, too restricted. As awareness crept in, panic followed immediately. I tried to move my arms.Metal clinked, My breath hitched.I forced my eyes open and sucked in a sharp breath. I was lying on a large bed, draped in soft silk sheets the color of ivory. The room around me was beautiful, too beautiful for a prison. Crystal lamps glowed faintly on either side, casting warm light over cream-colored walls, gold-trimmed furniture, and a thick carpet that swallowed sound.But beauty didn’t erase the truth.My wrists were cuffed to the bedframe.Cold steel bit into my skin.“No… no, no,” I whispered, tugging instinctively. The cuffs didn’t budge. Panic surged through me, fast and violent. I pulled harder, my pulse racing, my chest tightening until breathing felt painful.I was locked in.I twisted my head, scanning the room wildly. The door was closed. No w
