Aliya's POV

The sound of Leo’s laughter carried easily down the hallway, bright, unrestrained.

It bounced lightly off the walls, filling the apartment in a way that made everything feel warmer than it actually was.

I stood where I was for a moment after Dylan disappeared into Leo’s room, my fingers resting loosely against the edge of the door.

Then I exhaled, slowly.

Like I was trying to release something I hadn’t fully named yet.

It didn’t work, because even from here, I could hear them.

  • Married by Fate, Broken by Love   Chapter 236

    EPILOGUEAliya's POV"You'll have every dance."The words had barely left my lips before Dylan smiled in that quiet, unmistakable way that still made my heart race. His hand settled gently against my waist while mine rested over his shoulder, and as the music filled the ballroom, the world around us seemed to disappear. We moved slowly across the dance floor, neither of us caring whether our steps were perfect. Every smile, every whispered laugh, every lingering glance carried us through the melody more beautifully than choreography ever could. For years I had believed happiness was something temporary, a brief pause between difficult seasons. Yet standing in my husband's arms, I finally understood that happiness could also become a home.The applause faded into warm conversation as our first dance came to an end, but Dylan didn't let go of my hand. Instead, he kissed my forehead before guiding me toward our guests, who welcomed us with hugs, congratulations, and more photographs tha

    Aliya's POVThe applause echoed through the chapel long after Dylan's lips left mine.For several wonderful seconds, neither of us moved.His forehead rested gently against mine while our hands remained intertwined, and I became vaguely aware that everyone around us was smiling, laughing, and wiping away tears. The officiant chuckled softly before stepping aside, giving us a quiet moment that somehow made the entire ceremony feel even more personal. Dylan looked at me with the same expression he had worn the day he proposed beneath this very roof, only now there was something different in his eyes. The uncertainty that had haunted us for so long had disappeared completely. In its place was a deep, peaceful certainty that neither of us had to search for anymore. We had finally arrived exactly where we were meant to be."My wife," he whispered, almost as though he were testing the words for the very first time.The title sent a pleasant shiver through me.I smiled so widely that my chee

  • Married by Fate, Broken by Love   Chapter 234

    Dylan's POVI had negotiated billion-dollar acquisitions without losing my composure.I had testified before investigators, stood in rooms filled with powerful people determined to destroy everything my family believed in, and faced dangers I never imagined I would survive.None of those moments compared to waiting for my wedding to begin.By seven o'clock that morning, I had already straightened my tie four different times, checked my watch at least twenty, and walked from one end of the hotel suite to the other often enough that Michael, my best man and oldest friend, finally laughed."You know," he said while adjusting his cufflinks, "if you keep pacing like that, you're going to wear a path through the carpet."I stopped long enough to look at him."I'm not pacing.""You've walked past me seventeen times.""I counted because I was bored.""I was thinking.""You were pacing while thinking."I sighed, earning another laugh from everyone gathered inside the suite.For the first time

    Aliya's POVThe envelope trembled gently between my fingers as I unfolded the first page. For a long moment, I simply stared at my father's handwriting, unable to read another word because seeing those familiar strokes brought back memories I had spent years trying to hold onto. It felt as though he had reached across time itself, placing one final conversation into my hands. I closed my eyes briefly, inhaled slowly, and began reading.**My Darling Daughter,****If you are reading this, then tomorrow someone will have the privilege of promising to love you for the rest of his life. Before anything else, I want you to know how incredibly proud I am of the woman you have become.**A tear slipped quietly down my cheek.**I know there were days when you questioned whether you were strong enough. I also know there were nights when you probably believed you were completely alone. If I could change anything about your journey, it would only be that. I would have spared you the loneliness. Bu

  • Married by Fate, Broken by Love   Chapter 232

    Aliya's POVThe morning before our wedding arrived wrapped in an almost surreal calm, as though the world itself had decided to slow down and let me savor every moment. When I opened my eyes, sunlight was already spilling gently across the bedroom floor, illuminating the soft white garment bag hanging from the wardrobe door. My wedding dress waited inside, untouched since Martha and Eleanor had insisted on bringing it home the previous evening. I stared at it for several quiet moments, hardly believing that after everything Dylan and I had survived, tomorrow I would walk toward him instead of running beside him. The realization settled gently inside my heart, replacing excitement with something even deeper.Peace.For years, I had imagined weddings as grand celebrations filled with flowers, music, and smiling faces. Now, standing at the edge of my own, I realized none of those things mattered nearly as much as one simple truth.Tomorrow, I would marry the man who had become my safest

  • Married by Fate, Broken by Love   Chapter 231

    Dylan's POVThe penthouse had never been louder.By nine o'clock the next morning, every room seemed occupied by someone carrying flowers, garment bags, ribbon samples, or a clipboard with a schedule that Martha had somehow created overnight. She moved through the apartment with remarkable confidence, issuing instructions as though she had been planning luxury weddings her entire life. Eleanor remained close behind her, gently refining each ambitious idea into something practical while quietly preventing complete chaos from taking over. I stood in the kitchen making coffee for everyone, watching the scene unfold with amused disbelief. For years my home had been a place of quiet efficiency where every object remained exactly where I left it. Now laughter echoed down every hallway, flower petals decorated the dining table, and the living room resembled the headquarters of an exceptionally determined wedding planner. Strangely enough, I had never loved the apartment more.Aliya wandered
