They had no idea that even now, with the sirens screaming in the distance, I was the one holding all the cards.

"Time's up," I whispered, my voice dripping with cold amusement.

With a sudden, sharp twist of my arm, I snatched my wrist out of Julian’s grip. At the same exact moment, I stepped sideways, entirely removing myself from the suffocating space between their broad shoulders. The sudden loss of my body weight made both men stumble forward slightly, their angry gazes snapping back to me i

  • Once Rejected Twice desired    The Poison Whisper

    Noah did not run. He did not look at the heavy iron door where the synchronized thud of tactical boots grew deafening. Instead, he reached down, deliberately adjusting the crisp silk cuffs of his white dress shirt, sliding them until they sat exactly a quarter-inch past his tailored suit jacket.With a smooth, slow twist of his forearm, he broke Julian’s bruising grip. The sudden retraction of his weight caused Julian to stumble forward a half-step, the actor’s chest heaving as a heavy drop of dark red blood slipped from his torn sleeve and splattered onto the grease-stained concrete below."Time is up," Noah murmured. His voice didn't carry a hint of the suffocating heat filling the underground garage. It was pure, leveled ice."Noah, what are you doing?" Julian’s hand clamped down hard on his bleeding arm, his eyes wide, tracking Noah's total lack of panic. "The tactical teams are breaching. This isn't a game. We need to move.""The police are here because my firm initiated the auto

    They had no idea that even now, with the sirens screaming in the distance, I was the one holding all the cards."Time's up," I whispered, my voice dripping with cold amusement.With a sudden, sharp twist of my arm, I snatched my wrist out of Julian’s grip. At the same exact moment, I stepped sideways, entirely removing myself from the suffocating space between their broad shoulders. The sudden loss of my body weight made both men stumble forward slightly, their angry gazes snapping back to me in utter shock.They expected a fragile victim waiting to be rescued. Instead, they got a mastermind who was enjoying every second of their undoing."Noah, what are you doing?" Julian hissed, his hand clutching his bleeding arm as he took a step toward me. "This isn't a game. The police—""The police are here because I called them, Julian," I interrupted, the ice-cold smirk never leaving my lips.Both Julian and Vance froze. The roaring engine of Vance's sports car seemed to fade into the backgro

  • Once Rejected Twice desired    The Defiance

    The silence in the narrow hallway was completely suffocating. The only sound was the heavy, wet drip of Julian’s blood hitting the wood panels from his torn sleeve. Silas Vance stood perfectly still, his eyes glued to the red transfer bar on my phone screen. The bar was stuck at ninety-nine percent, pulsing like a live bomb under the dim light."You are bluffing, Noah," Silas whispered. His deep voice was smooth, but his jaw was so tight a tiny muscle twitched under his sharp cheekbone. "You wouldn't destroy my empire. If the Vance name falls, your parents' patent becomes worthless public data. They will never get their life's work back.""Try me," I purred.I lifted my thumb just one millimeter off the glass screen. Instantly, a loud, high-pitched emergency beep buzzed from the phone speaker. A digital clock appeared, counting down from ten seconds.9... 8... 7..."Silas!" Julian roared, his face turning completely pale as he stepped closer. He pressed the cold metal barrel of his pi

    Silas did not look at the gun in Julian’s hand. He just kept his dark, heavy eyes locked right onto my face, his cruel smile widening. The air in the hallway felt completely frozen, and nobody was breathing.Julian’s hand was shaking from pure, unhinged rage. He did not care that Silas was his own uncle. He did not care about the Vance family blood. He took a sharp step forward, his massive body stepping directly between me and the older man. He lifted his black pistol, pressing the cold metal barrel straight against Silas’s forehead."I don't care about your papers, Silas," Julian growled, his deep voice shaking the walls of the narrow hallway. Sweat rolled down his pale face, and his chest heaved violently against his bloody shirt. "I shed blood for him tonight. He is staying with me. If you try to take him out of this house, I will put a bullet through your brain right now."Silas did not even blink. He did not look scared at all. He slowly reached up with one long finger and pushe

  • Once Rejected Twice desired    The True Mastermind

    The heavy iron door felt freezing cold against my palm. The rhythmic tapping from the outside stopped, but the deep voice still echoed in the quiet hallway.“Open the door, Noah. Your toys can't save you from the real owner.”My breath caught hard in my throat. My heart gave one violent, painful thud against my bare ribs. That voice did not belong to Elijah Hayes. It belonged to a man far more dangerous. It belonged to the shadow who had truly broken my body and mind during my six missing years before vanishing into the dark."Noah? Who the hell is outside?" Julian growled softly.His massive frame stepped right in front of me, his broad shoulders completely blocking my view of the wood. The deep cut on his forearm was still leaking fast, smearing dark red crimson across his white shirt, but his alpha aura turned completely unhinged. He reached into his waistband and pulled out a heavy black pistol, pointing it straight at the door lock."I don't care who thinks they own your past, be

  • Once Rejected Twice desired    The Uninvited Guest

    Leo didn't wait for Julian to answer him. He threw the medical kit onto the side table and stepped straight into the small gap between us. His broad chest pushed hard against Julian’s bleeding shoulder, forcing the billionaire to take a half-step back. Leo reached down and grabbed my right hand, his warm fingers locking tightly with mine."Get your bloody hands off him, Vance," Leo spat, his blue eyes flashing with a dangerous, dark devotion as he looked at my matted shirt. "You are tracking your red stains all over his silk. You look like you're about to faint anyway. Let me take him to my car.""He stays behind my chest, Sterling," Julian growled back, his jaw clenching so hard that a thick vein popped out near his temple. He did not let go of my waist. His grip turned bruisingly tight against my hip bone, forcing my lower back to press flat against his stomach. "I took a knife to the flesh for him tonight. He belongs to my house."I let out a soft, dry laugh, enjoying the heavy phy
