Ivy didn’t ask again.

Not out loud.

She learned quickly in this place—

Questions didn’t get you answers.

They got you watched.

So she stopped asking.

And started looking.

The file wasn’t hard to find.

That surprised her.

Too easy.

Jaxon had left his station for less than a minute.

Lucien was in the other room.

Sebastian—

Occupied.

And Rafael?

Nowhere in sight.

Perfect.

Ivy moved without hesitation.

Not rushing.

Not hesitating either.

She slipped into the security hub and pulled up the logs.

    Ivy didn’t look at him directly.Not at first.That would’ve been too obvious.Too easy to read.So she watched the way he moved instead.Rafael never stayed in one place for long.He drifted.From room to room.From conversation to silence.Always present—But never fully there.Before, it felt effortless.Natural.Now?It felt calculated.Her father’s voice echoed faintly in her mind.“You’re looking at the wrong man.”Ivy leaned back slightly where she sat, book open but unread.Her eyes followed Rafael as he passed through the room again.He didn’t acknowledge her.Didn’t even glance her way.But something about that—Felt intentional too.“Interesting, isn’t it?”Ivy blinked.Lucien stood near the doorway, arms folded, watching the same direction.“What is?” she asked.“The way you’re watching him.”Her chest tightened slightly.“I’m not.”Lucien didn’t smile.Didn’t argue either.“Just don’t let curiosity get you into places you can’t get out of.”That sounded like a warning.Or

    “I’ve been waiting.”Those words stayed with Ivy longer than they should have.She didn’t respond immediately.Didn’t rush into it.Because something about his voice—It didn’t sound like the man who left.It sounded… patient.“I didn’t call to catch up,” she said finally.A quiet breath came from the other end.“I figured.”No anger.No defensiveness.That unsettled her more than anything else.“I saw what happened to Emily,” Ivy continued.Silence.Then—“I know.”Her grip tightened slightly around the phone.“You knew?”“Yes.”The answer came without hesitation.Too easily.“And you didn’t think to tell me?” she asked.A pause.Careful this time.“I wanted to,” he said.Her jaw tightened.“But?”“But you weren’t with me.”The words landed softly—But they cut deeper than they should have.“You were with them.”There it was.The shift.Subtle.But intentional.“They’ve been protecting me,” Ivy said.Even as she said it—It didn’t sound as certain as it used to.A quiet chuckle came

    Ivy didn’t sleep.Not really.Every time she closed her eyes—She saw it again.The headlights.The impact.Emily’s body hitting the ground.Not an accident.Never an accident.Her chest tightened, breath catching halfway as she stared into the darkness of her room.They knew.That was the part that wouldn’t leave her alone.Not just that it happened—But that they had known.And said nothing.By morning, something had shifted.Not loudly.Not visibly.But enough.“I want to see her.”Her voice cut through the quiet of the room again.Sebastian didn’t look up immediately.Jaxon paused mid-typing.Lucien’s gaze flicked toward her.Rafael—Was already watching.“No,” Sebastian said.Flat.Final.Ivy didn’t react.Not the way she would have before.Instead—She nodded once.“Okay.”That was new.Too easy.Sebastian’s eyes lifted slowly.Because that wasn’t the response he expected.Ivy turned away.Walked toward the window.And stayed there.No argument.No push.No defiance.Just silenc

    Sebastian didn’t bring it up again.Not the way Ivy expected.No questions.No pressure.No quiet commands disguised as concern.Instead—Everything returned to normal.Which was worse.Because now Ivy knew—He was thinking.And Sebastian thinking…Was never harmless.She stayed careful.More careful than before.No unnecessary movements.No wandering.No reactions she couldn’t control.But her mind?It wouldn’t stop.Emily.The accident.The voice in that room.“Everything is about your father.”Her stomach tightened again.Not fear.Not entirely.Something else.Something building.That night—She couldn’t ignore it anymore.“I want to see her.”The words cut through the room.Jaxon looked up.Lucien stilled.Rafael’s gaze shifted slowly toward her.Sebastian didn’t move.“Not safe,” he said.Ivy stepped forward.“She’s my sister.”“And she’s alive because we kept it that way.”That hit.Harder than expected.Ivy’s jaw tightened.“That wasn’t an accident.”Silence.Heavy.Immediate.

    Sebastian didn’t mention it.That was the first sign something was wrong.Not the argument.Not the corridor.Not even the accusation hanging between them.No—What he didn’t mention…Was her.Ivy noticed it immediately.He didn’t question her again.Didn’t press.Didn’t push.He simply… watched.And that was worse.“You’re quiet today.”Ivy didn’t look up from the book in her hand.“I talk when there’s something worth saying.”A faint pause.Then—“Is that what this is?”She lifted her gaze.Sebastian stood across from her, sleeves rolled again, posture relaxed.But his eyes—Focused.Too focused.“What?” she asked.“Silence,” he said.Ivy held his gaze for a moment.Then looked back down.“Maybe I’m just tired.”A lie.He didn’t call it out.Didn’t challenge it.Instead—He moved closer.Slow.Measured.Until he was standing beside her.Too close to ignore.“You’ve been tired for three days,” he said quietly.Her fingers tightened slightly around the page.“I’ve had a lot to think ab

    The city never slept, but inside the penthouse the silence felt deliberate — chosen, controlled, suffocating.Ivy stood near the glass wall, arms folded tight across her stomach as if holding herself together. Below, headlights crawled through the streets like veins of white fire. She had counted t

    The penthouse felt different.Not quieter in a peaceful way — quieter like something fragile had cracked and everyone was pretending not to see it. The city stretched endlessly beyond the glass walls, lights flickering like distant stars, but inside the room the air carried a tension that refused t

    The room was dark.Not the comforting kind—no shadows to hide in, no corners untouched. Just controlled dimness, calibrated to blur edges and sharpen sensation.Sebastian stood near the bed.Ivy stood frozen at the center of the room.No one spoke.Rafael closed the door.The sound echoed louder th

    The penthouse was too quiet.Not the comfortable kind of quiet that came with safety or rest, but the heavy kind that settled into Ivy Harper’s bones and refused to move. Night pressed against the glass walls, in the city sprawling below in a thousand restless lights, and for the first time since s
