Before Aria could respond, the door swung open with a loud bang.

“Damian! I need you!” Selene’s voice rang through the room, sharp and urgent.

Damian turned, eyebrow raised, his patience already thinning.

“Selene, what is it? This better not be another one of your dramatics,” he said, his tone low but steady, the kind that demanded attention.

Selene froze mid-step, then walked closer, hands flailing slightly. “Damian, I just… I need to make sure everything is set for the wedding. The vendors, the venue… and—and the doctor appointment! I can’t handle any delays, I just—”

He cut her off, stepping in front of her. “Selene. Stop. Take a breath and calm down. You barging into my meetings, shouting like this—it’s not how we handle things.”

She huffed, frustrated. “Calm down? You don’t understand! Everything is moving so fast, and I just—”

“I do understand,” Damian interrupted, his voice firm. “I understand that you’re panicking. But you don’t get to drag me into it like I’m some bystander t

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    Broken Walls

    Simon Levi ReactsSimon Levi was in the middle of a board meeting when his phone vibrated.He didn’t look at it immediately.The room was glass and steel, filled with men twice his age talking numbers, mergers, timelines. Simon listened with half an ear, his expression unreadable, fingers steepled calmly on the table.The phone vibrated again.That annoyed him.He glanced down.Vivienne Carter: I just broke up with my boyfriend.For a brief second—just one—Simon’s jaw tightened.Then he stood.“Gentlemen,” he said smoothly, buttoning his suit jacket, “continue without me. I’ll review the minutes.”No one questioned him. They never did.He walked out, straight into the private elevator, doors sliding shut behind him. Only then did he reread the message.Once.Twice.A slow smile curved his lips.“So,” he murmured, more to himself than anyone else, “you finally made a choice.”He typed back immediately.Simon: I was beginning to wonder how long you’d keep me waiting.Three dots appeared

    The restaurant was upscale but subdued soft piano music, clinking cutlery, muted conversations floating between tables. Vivienne sat across from Samuel, her posture perfect, her food barely touched.Samuel noticed immediately.“You’ve been quiet since we got here,” he said, folding his napkin slowly. “That’s not like you.”Vivienne didn’t respond. She lifted her glass, took a sip, then set it down with deliberate calm.Samuel studied her face. “What’s wrong?”Still nothing.His jaw tightened slightly. “Is this about Aria again?” he pressed. “What did she do this time?”That did it.Vivienne finally looked up, her eyes sharp, annoyed. “Samuel,” she said coolly, “we came here to eat, right?”He nodded, confused. “Yeah…”“Then why are you interrogating me like this?” she snapped. “Can’t we just have one normal lunch without you digging for drama?”Samuel leaned back, unconvinced. “Because I care,” he said firmly. “And because you’ve been distant. You don’t text back. You don’t return my

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    Rekindle passion

    "Why are you smiling?" Damian asked, his voice low as he leaned against the doorframe, watching her.Aria looked up, caught off guard. She shrugged, trying to keep her tone light. "Well, considering you were ice cold towards me yesterday and the day before that I’m just wondering where this sudden change came from."Damian let out a short breath, running a hand through his hair. "Maybe it’s because I can’t stay mad at you for long," he admitted, his eyes darkening as they locked onto hers. "I’m addicted. It’s a problem."Aria scoffed playfully. "Easy, bro. Don't hurt yourself."He chuckled, the sound deep and rumbly, and pushed off the doorframe. "Gosh, Aria. I don't know what you have done to me."He moved toward the bed, climbing onto the mattress with a predatory grace. Aria instinctively recoiled, crossing her arms over her chest in an X shape. "Where do you think you're going?"Damian didn't stop until he was kneeling right in front of her. His expression turned serious. "I spoke

    Aria sipped her coffee, watching the steam curl into the air. The morning sunlight fell lazily across her laptop screen, but she couldn’t focus. Her phone buzzed. Lucas. She groaned but answered.“Hey… my queen,” Lucas said, voice warm and teasing.“Lucas, what is it?” she asked, trying to sound calm but failing.“I’m good… just missing you, baby,” he said, a slow grin audible in his tone.“Lucas, please… I don’t have time for this,” she snapped, putting her coffee down.“Oh? So you’re telling me I can’t tease my queen again?” he chuckled. “But seriously, Aria… you’re really lagging behind. What’s going on over there at Cross Empire?”She ran a hand over her face. “Well… for now, Damian has gone back to being cold. He’s… I don’t know, giving me attitude. You should’ve seen yesterday. He embarrassed me in front of everyone, Lucas.”Lucas whistled low. “Ah… that’s exactly why I’m telling you to be careful. Aria, Damian Cross is too smart. He’s probably planning something, seeing how far

    That night, Damian sat alone in his bedroom, sleeves rolled up, laptop open but untouched.His phone buzzed.Unknown number.He frowned slightly, then opened the message.The image loaded slowly.Aria.Standing too close to Lucas.Lucas leaning in, smiling. Aria’s face turned slightly toward him, caught mid-moment, ambiguous, intimate enough to sting.Damian’s jaw tightened.For a long second, he just stared.Disappointment settled in quietly. Not loud. Not explosive.Worse.Cold.“So this is it…” he muttered.He locked the phone, tossed it onto the bed, and leaned back against the chair.“Women,” he scoffed under his breath. “Never to be trusted.”He didn’t ask questions. Didn’t call. Didn’t confront her.That hurt too much.Instead, he shut everything down emotion included.The next morning, Damian was already dressed when Aria came downstairs.“Good morning,” she said softly.No response.He walked past her like she wasn’t there.Aria paused, confused. “Damian?”Still nothing.He g

  • Married Twice, Loved Once    Sophia Makes Her Move

    One Week LaterSophia Makes Her MoveSophia’s dinner party was nothing like the loud, chaotic spectacle of Fashion Week.This one was quiet. Intentional. Calculated.A private rooftop lounge overlooking the city skyline. Warm golden lights glimmered against glass railings, soft jazz hummed in the background, and the few guests, designers, a handful of influencers, two investors, knew when to speak and, more importantly, when to remain silent. Every detail spoke of refinement, exclusivity, and control.Aria arrived ten minutes late on purpose.She stepped out of the elevator in a simple yet expensive red dress. Her hair was pulled back neatly, understated, elegant. There was no effort to outshine anyone, but neither was there an attempt to blend into the background. She was deliberately… present.Sophia spotted her immediately, her lips curving into a bright, practiced smile. “Aria,” she said, rising smoothly from her seat. “You came.”“Of course,” Aria replied with a polite, measured
