OPHELIA

By morning, the storm had reduced to a mist. Yet I was still restless. I remained in bed, looking up at the ceiling of the cliff house, replaying Charlotte's words in my head. Pick a date. Be the fairytale they want.

Every choice, during the last six years of my life, had been a matter of control—what I said, what I built, whom I let in. And once again, I was being driven to give a performance to those shit heads. And this time, my co-star was the man who'd destroyed me.

  • Redeeming Alessandre: Claiming the Billionaire ice Queen    Chapter 65

    OpheliaFor one impossible second, Ophelia genuinely thought she was hallucinating.Because Remy couldn’t be here.Not now.Not after everything.Her brain rejected the sight of him standing calmly beneath the low silver lights of the underground control room. Rejected the easy posture. The familiar expression. The expensive dark coat hanging neatly over his shoulders like he had simply arrived late to dinner instead of stepping directly into the center of a war.But he was real.Terrifyingly real.And the worst part?He looked completely comfortable.Like he belonged here.Like the armed men behind him weren’t enough to send ice through her veins.Like Alessandre wasn’t two seconds away from killing him.“…No,” she whispered.The word barely escaped her throat.“No, that’s not—”But it was.Every horrible piece of it.Remy smiled softly when their eyes locked.The same smile he’d worn when he brought her coffee after late nights.The same smile he used when teasing her during argumen

    AlessandreThe silence didn’t survive the broadcast.It shattered the second the stream cut off.The room that had felt controlled only moments ago suddenly carried a dangerous kind of tension, thick enough to choke on. Every monitor glowed against the darkness. Every blinking cursor felt like a countdown.Alessandre moved first.Fast.Cold.Focused.No hesitation.The moment the final frame disappeared from the screen, he crossed the room and activated another layer of the hidden system buried beneath the office walls. Panels shifted open automatically. Encrypted interfaces flooded the monitors in rapid succession.Secure channels.Dead relays.Private routing networks.Emergency protocols.His fingers moved over the keyboard with brutal precision.“They’ll respond within minutes,” he said without looking at her. “Not hours.”Ophelia forced herself to breathe evenly even though her pulse was slamming violently against her ribs.“Let them.”The words came out steadier than she felt.A

    OpheliaThe fear didn’t disappear.It sharpened.Turned into something colder. More focused.Ophelia stared at the screens—at the web of names, companies, transactions—and felt something inside her settle into place.“They’re not expecting me to fight back,” she said.Alessandre watched her carefully. “No. They’re expecting you to break.”A slow breath filled her lungs.“Good.”That got his attention.She moved.Fast. Decisive.Back to the main system—the compromised one.“Ophelia—”“I know it’s compromised,” she cut in. “That’s exactly why we use it.”His eyes narrowed. “Explain.”“They’re watching it, right?”“Yes.”“Then we give them something to watch.”He didn’t stop her.But he didn’t agree yet either.“What are you planning?” he asked.She pulled up the live feed the one still showing her apartment.The man was still there.Moving through her space like he owned it.Rage flared hot, sharp—but she forced it down.Not useful.Not now.“They think they’re ahead,” she said. “They t

    Chapter 62 — AlessandreFor a moment, he said nothing.Not because he didn’t know what to say.But because once he did—There was no going back.Ophelia stood across from him, shaken, eyes wide, fear barely contained beneath the anger she was still trying to hold onto.She deserved the truth.He had denied her that long enough.---Alessandre exhaled slowly, then turned toward the far wall of the office.To anyone else, it looked like nothing.Just glass.Seamless. Untouched.But he reached for it anyway.Pressed his hand flat against the surface.A soft click echoed.Then—The wall shifted.Sliding open silently to reveal a hidden panel behind it.Ophelia froze.“What… is that?”He didn’t answer.Just stepped aside.Letting her see.---Inside—A secure system.Separate from everything else.Dark screens.Cold hardware.Untouched by whatever had breached the main network.Ophelia’s breath caught.“You had this the whole time?”“Yes.”Her eyes snapped to his.“And you didn’t think to

    OpheliaThe doors locked with a heavy, echoing click.It sounded final.Like something closing in.Ophelia’s pulse spiked as she turned toward Alessandre. “You locked us in.”“I locked them out,” he corrected, already moving.“That doesn’t make me feel better.”“It’s not supposed to.”Of course it wasn’t.Nothing about tonight was.---The screen still played.That video.Her eyes kept dragging back to it no matter how hard she tried to look away.Them.Too close.Too real.Too exposed.“This can’t go out,” she said, her voice tight. “Alessandre, this will destroy everything—”“I know.”“Do you?” she snapped. “Because this isn’t just reputation anymore. This is—this is—”“Leverage,” he finished.The word hit like a slap.She stared at him. “You’re not taking this seriously.”“I am,” he said calmly. “More than you think.”“Then why do you sound like you expected this?”A pause.Too long.Her stomach dropped.“…You did, didn’t you?”Alessandre didn’t answer immediately.And that silence

    AlessandreTwo hours.That was the window.Not enough time to clean it.Not enough time to bury it.Just enough time to choose how it explodes.Alessandre moved fast.“Get in the car,” he said, already pulling Ophelia toward his.“What about—”“They’re done,” he cut in, nodding once toward the man still pinned against the vehicle. “He was a message, not the threat.”That alone told her everything.This wasn’t over.It hadn’t even started.---The engine roared to life as they sped off.Ophelia sat rigid beside him, her phone still in her hand like it might burn through her skin.“Two hours,” she said under her breath. “Two hours and my life is over.”“No,” Alessandre said flatly. “Two hours before they think it is.”Her head snapped toward him.“That’s not reassuring.”“It’s not meant to be.”His eyes stayed on the road.Sharp. Focused. Calculating.Because this—This was familiar territory.Pressure.Control.Timing.War.---“They want you reactive,” he continued. “They want you des

    ALESSANDRE The storm was brewing when we left Manhattan. Black clouds loomed like smoke over the Hudson, as wind whipped sheets of rain across the windshield until the city lights became a gold and grey blur. I took the Maserati low and fast, the tyres moving over the rain-damp pavement. Each mil

    OPHELIA The storm never let up.Rain hammered the windows like fists, wind clawed at the glass, and somewhere below, sirens wailed.Alessandre stood in the dark living room, his shoulders rigid, and the gun still holstered at his hip. I decided not to ask him where or when or even how he got that.

    ALESSANDRE The vibration against my wrist yanked me out of sleep like a shockwave.It wasn’t like the usual buzz I get when a text comes in. This was the deep, hard pulse of a hidden security feed I’d buried in Ophelia’s building months ago.Heat signature detected. Service corridor. Level 48.Shi

    OPHELIAThe rain had gotten worse. It was relentless and unyielding, as if hell-bent on shutting out the noise in my head. Charlotte's apartment glowed warmly with amber light from two mismatched lamps and the one candle she always lit when I came by. It had a citrus-spice scent that filled my nos
