Chapter 19

Autor: Gotta Win
By the time Zoe hit the hotel, ten minutes had already flown by. Heart racing, she flashed her ID and demanded Lucian's room key. "I'm his wife."

She swiped into the room—and her blood boiled.

Lucian was passed out on the bed, eyes shut.

Some girl in barely anything was straddled across him, snapping pics like her life depended on it.

The second she spotted Zoe, panic hit. She scrambled off, shaking.

"N-No... Mrs. Lyttelton, please, I can explain! I didn't touch him, I swear! I just—he was drunk, I only wanted a few pictures..."

Zoe ignored her. Calmly fixed Lucian's collar.

"Who sent you?"

The girl's eyes flicked, guilty.

Zoe sneered. "If you know who I am, then you know how close we are. You really think whoever hired you can protect you after I catch you drugging my husband?"

That was it. The girl cracked—confessing everything in one messy rush.

***

Zoe kicked the girl out, totally unfazed by the name she dropped.

Yvette Camorra. Of course.

Still bitter over Lucian's p

  • No Longer Yours to Break   Chapter 27

    By the time Zoe and Lucian got to the hospital, Eleanor was already outside the room.Her face was pale, eyes still shiny with tears. Zoe hesitated, then walked over.She braced for a lecture—Connor being here was partly her fault.But Eleanor just looked at her for a beat, sighed, and pulled her into a hug, tears slipping down again.Eleanor's hug was thin but warm, and it shattered what was left of Zoe's composure. Her tears finally came."I'm sorry... Mrs. Buxton, I'm so sorry..."Eleanor rubbed her back, managing a small, brave smile. "This wasn't on you. Connor made his choice."Zoe blinked, stunned by the kindness in her eyes. "How did you know...?""He never told you, huh?" Eleanor said quietly. "About the dream he had."***Zoe sank onto a bench in the hallway, head spinning.She never thought Connor would remember their past life too—much less try to die for her.Since her rebirth, she hadn't felt this torn.She was sure she'd moved on. There wasn't a drop of love

  • No Longer Yours to Break   Chapter 26

    Connor drifted in a long, hazy dream.He knew he was dying—and didn't fight it.His whole life... he'd always owed it to Zoe.But she'd once looked him dead in the eye and called it filthy. Said she didn't want it.That moment was burned into him, every second playing back like a slow-motion reel.When the blade flashed, sharp and blinding, only one thought hit him:Zoe can't die. Not again.He lunged on instinct—only to see her already throwing herself in front of Lucian.Zoe and Lucian clung to each other. Connor stood alone, wide open as the blade came for him.His eyes locked on their hands—tight, steady. A bitter fist clenched at his side.Blood kept gushing from his chest, warmth slipping away with every drop.Yeah... he probably wasn't making it past today.What a shame.Zoe had really let him go.Fragments of memory flickered in Connor's mind.Something from way back—when they were just kids.Zoe had saved him once, too.Everyone in Southport used to know the B

  • No Longer Yours to Break   Chapter 25

    Zoe's honeymoon kicked off in Southport.They hit all the spots—beach, her old school—wandering under the trees like they were trying to squeeze in every romantic moment they'd missed.But something about it felt... off.One night, after a late stroll down the food street, they rolled into the hotel parking lot just past midnight.Zoe froze, scanning the shadows.Lucian glanced at her. "What's wrong?""I don't know... it feels like someone's following us."His face shifted. "You're not crazy. I've felt it too. Like we're being watched."Her whole body tensed.He caught the look in her eyes, pulled her close, and walked her into the elevator with a calm, easy smile. "It's fine. Starting tomorrow, I'll have extra eyes on us. No one's getting near you."***Even with Lucian's calm promises, the unease stuck with Zoe.Her gut kept screaming—something was coming.That feeling slammed into her the night she saw Connor at an intersection.They'd just wrapped up dinner, and that

  • No Longer Yours to Break   Chapter 24

    Connor stumbled out in a daze.Back at his place in Khelmark City, all he could see was Zoe's ice-cold rejection—and that smile she only ever gave Lucian.It was driving him insane.He crashed onto the bed, mind spinning, and eventually passed out in a restless haze.When Connor opened his eyes, he was back at the Elite Match Gala.His heart jumped—he'd picked the tulip bouquet. Zoe's bouquet.Perfect. He could fix everything. Start over. This time, he wouldn't—But then, to his horror, he saw himself hurl the orchids to the ground and storm off.What the hell? Why couldn't he stop it? Why wasn't he in control?Like a ghost, Connor hovered helplessly, clawing to get back into his body—but he couldn't even touch it.And the Zoe here? Still hopelessly in love with him.He watched in horror as his past self lured her out, snapped those intimate photos in secret, then dumped her in public and plastered those photos everywhere.Connor froze, staring at the mess he'd made. He tri

    Before Lucian could even move against the Camorra family, Yvette managed to ruin herself.News dropped—she'd been bar-hopping with random guys, faking grades, and stealing someone else's university spot using her family's pull.She'd built this whole fake life online, flaunting luxury like some flawless heiress and soaking up the praise.That ended real fast.Her social media account? Wiped overnight.Yvette? Arrested and dragged off to jail.***Ever since Zoe ditched all that emotional baggage, she'd started popping into Lucian's office at Lyttelton Group a lot more.They were supposed to plan their honeymoon for next month, but with everything blowing up lately, it kept getting pushed back.Zoe wanted them to plan it together. Lucian was down.Plus, he secretly liked how his employees always perked up a little when she walked in—like they couldn't help being nosy.One day, while they were going over trip ideas in the office, the receptionist buzzed—Connor was downstairs.

    Zoe finally steadied herself and grabbed Lucian's hand."It's Con... Connor. Check on Connor."Lucian froze. No questions. Just called it in, alerting his team right away.Zoe wiped the sweat from her forehead, forcing a small, shaky smile at him.Then her phone rang.An unfamiliar number lit up the screen.She stared at it, heart slamming in her chest. For a second, it felt like she'd been yanked straight back into her worst memories.Her hand shook as she went to hang up—But her finger slipped. 'Answer.'She flinched, eyes squeezed shut.Then came the voice. Too familiar."Zoe, did you see what's going around on social media?"Connor.The second she heard his voice, something snapped.Rage exploded in her chest, fueled by everything she'd buried—both lives worth of pain.She screamed into the phone."Connor Buxton! Why are you doing this to me?! You said you loved Vicky—I gave up EVERYTHING for your so-called true love! I didn't want anything anymore! I left for Khel
