RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE EX-HUSBAND CHASED ME BACK CHAPTER 225
The pollen fell like black snow over Manhattan.Jeff watched from a safehouse rooftop as people staggered through the streets below, their pupils dilating as the neural spores took root. A woman dropped her coffee, screaming as veins of black-gold bloomed beneath her skin. A traffic cop began laughing, his voice harmonizing with the roses' song in eerie unison."It's already in the water supply," Eva said, her hybrid eyes tracking the contamination spread on Lina's satellite feed. "Eighteen hours until global saturation."Lina's hologram flickered between them, her neon hair dull under the glow of emergency alerts. "Bad news: Lucian's corpse is gone from the lab. Good news?" She tossed up schematics of a subterranean complex beneath Montegreco's Swiss estate. "He left us a backdoor."The screen zoomed in on a single phrase etched into the foundation:LITTLE STAR, SHINE BRIGHTJeff's old wound ached.The Swiss bunker stank of wet earth and rotting roses.They found Lucian's corpse at t

I stood in the garden of white roses.My mother—the real Demetria Perez—waited beneath the largest tree. She looked like me. Like Omega. Like every ghost that had haunted my dreams."He’s hurting your friend," she whispered. "We can stop him."Beyond the garden, the real world flickered—Jeff fighting Omega, Eva seizing, Duchannes watching it all with clinical detachment.My mother reached for me. "Merge with me. Become me. Together, we’ll—""No."I stepped back."Then you’ll die," she said simply. "And so will your friends."I thought of Jeff’s hands steadying me through panic attacks. Of Eva’s laughter in the safehouse kitchen. Of Lina’s relentless, stupid hope.I reached into my pocket."There’s a third option."The neural drive glowed in my palm.Lucian’s final message played:"It’s a killswitch. For all of us."******Five Years LaterThe letter arrived on a Tuesday.Jeff Ortega knew better than to trust unmarked envelopes—especially ones that smelled faintly of bergamot and gunpo

The Montegreco compound was a graveyard of marble and money.Omega lounged on Lucian's antique desk, her Louboutins crushing the remains of his $300,000 Breguet watch. Blood dripped from the ceiling where she'd strung him up by his wrists—still alive, barely."Took you long enough," she purred, twirling a scalpel between her fingers. "I was starting to think you didn't care."I stepped over the bodies of Montegreco's security team—each one killed with surgical precision. "You wanted my attention. You've got it."Jeff moved like a shadow behind me, his Glock trained on Omega's forehead.She laughed. "Still playing bodyguard, traitor?"Lucian groaned, his left eye swollen shut. "Demi... don't... trust..."Omega plunged the scalpel into his thigh."Quiet, toy."The monitors behind her flickered to life—showing Greg Varga standing in my father's penthouse, flipping through Rykov's private files."Surprise," Omega sang. "Your fed's been feeding us intel for years."Jeff's gun didn't waver.

The Plaza Hotel ballroom glittered like a gilded cage.I stood at the top of the grand staircase in a custom Vera Wang mermaid gown—onyx silk so tight it felt like a second skin, the slit up my thigh revealing the dagger strapped to my leg. My father’s diamond choker weighed heavy around my throat, its hidden microphone transmitting every word to his security team."Smile, little star." Daniel’s hand pressed against my lower back, steering me toward the champagne tower. "The cameras love a reluctant heiress."Flashbulbs exploded. Across the room, Omega held court in a blood-red Valentino, her golden eyes tracking my every move. She’d spent the past week adjusting to my new role—leaving dead roses on my pillow, switching my birth control pills for sugar tablets, whispering in Jeff’s ear when she thought I wasn’t looking.Speaking of traitors.Jeff stood rigid by the ballroom’s service entrance, his tuxedo masking the bandages beneath. Daniel had allowed him to stay as my head of securi

The hive creatures moved like a single organism—twitching, jerking puppets on invisible strings. Their sewn-shut mouths strained against the neural wire as they lunged, black-gold fluid spraying from their eye sockets in thick ropes.Jeff’s bullets tore through the first three. They didn’t stop coming.Lina backflipped over a gurney, her plasma whip carving one in half at the waist. "Okay, new rule! No more Alien shit in my apocalypse!"The bisected creature’s legs kept running.Its torso crawled after me.Rook didn’t fight. He observed, his plague mask emitting soft clicking sounds as he recorded data. "Fascinating. The hive connection remains intact even during dismemberment."I drove my boot through the torso’s skull. Bone fragments and black fluid splattered the walls. "You’re enjoying this?""Enjoyment implies emotion." He adjusted a dial on his mask. "I’m simply noting that your father has improved upon Rykov’s work."Something cold slithered down my spine.My father.Daniel Per

The screaming wasn’t just in my head anymore.It poured from every speaker in the city—car radios, cell phones, emergency alert systems—a cascading shriek of corrupted data that made my teeth vibrate. People collapsed in the streets, clawing at their ears as golden veins erupted beneath their skin.Echo spread her arms, my father’s mechanical brain pulsing in her chest like a grotesque second heart."Hear that?" She laughed as the windows rattled. "That’s the sound of seven million minds learning to sing in harmony."Jeff grabbed my arm. His fingers were warm against the gold creeping up my veins. "Fight it, Demi."I couldn’t.The nanotech had reached my spine, whispering Echo’s thoughts directly into my nervous system:—so much noise in their heads——we’ll make them clean——we’ll make them perfect—Eva suddenly gasped, her silver-ringed eyes flooding gold. "I can... feel them. All of them." She clutched her head. "They’re begging for it to stop—"Lina racked her shotgun. "Then let’s
