Rejected by a Billionaire, Desired by another. Chapter 28. Blood Makes a Claim
Triple PovAvaPain became everything.It wrapped around Ava’s spine, clenched her lungs, hollowed her out from the inside until there was nothing left but instinct. White lights burned above her. Voices overlapped urgent, clipped, distant.“BP dropping”“Prep for emergency intervention”“She’s bleeding”“No,” Ava gasped. “Please… my baby…”Her fingers clawed weakly at the sheets as another contraction tore through her, sharper than the last. This wasn’t labor. She knew that much. This was something else. Something wrong.She felt it before anyone said it.Loss had a sound.It was the way the machine’s rhythm faltered. The way the room went suddenly, horribly quiet.“Ava,” a doctor said softly, too softly.Ava turned her head, heart slamming. “No. Don’t say it.”The doctor swallowed. “We’re trying to stabilize”“I said don’t say it!” Ava screamed, tears flooding her temples. “You don’t get to decide this!”Her body betrayed her, shaking violently as blood loss drained her strength.

Ava PovThe night tasted like metal and smoke.Ava barely registered the sirens at first only the warmth of Lucien’s blood soaking through her palms, slick and terrifyingly real. She pressed down harder, as if force alone could keep life inside him.“Stay with me,” she whispered, voice breaking. “Please. You don’t get to leave me.”Lucien’s lashes fluttered. His breathing was shallow now, uneven, each inhale sounding like it hurt.“I told you,” he murmured faintly, lips curving despite everything. “I don’t die easily.”Ava laughed, the sound strangled, hysterical. “This isn’t the time for arrogance.”“It’s always the time,” he said, then coughed violently.Blood bloomed darker.Panic clawed up her throat.Around them, the world fractured into chaos.Police vehicles screeched into position, red and blue lights slicing through the darkness like blades. Armed officers poured out, shouting commands that overlapped and collided.“Drop your weapons!”“Hands where we can see them!”Ethan sto
Rejected by a Billionaire, Desired by another. Chapter 26. The Man who Chooses Violence
Triple Pov Lucien The moment the screen went dark, something inside Lucien Moreau died. Not the part of him that loved. That part would never die. It was the part that believed restraint still mattered. He stood perfectly still in the war room, blood seeping steadily through the bandage at his side, dripping onto the marble floor like a countdown. No one spoke. No one dared. Florence trembled beneath his silence. “Lock the doors,” Lucien said quietly. The technician froze. “Sir?” “Every door,” Lucien repeated, voice calm, lethal. “Palazzo Moreau is now sealed. No one enters. No one leaves.” His gaze lifted slowly, fixing on the wall of screens where Isabella’s signal had vanished. “She wants me civil,” he said. “That was her mistake.” He turned. “Prepare the Black Protocol.” A collective inhale swept the room. The Black Protocol wasn’t a threat. It was extinction. Ethan Ethan woke choking on copper. Pain slammed into him in waves, white-hot and merciless. His arm

Quad PovAvaThe tablet felt heavier than iron.Ava’s finger hovered over the glowing line, trembling not from fear anymore, but from clarity. The kind that came when everything else had already been taken.On the screen beside her, the NICU feed flickered.The baby’s heartbeat wavered.Slow.Uneven.Fading.Her baby.Isabella leaned closer, her perfume sickly sweet, her voice velvet-wrapped poison. “You don’t have much time.”Lucien’s face filled the opposite screen. Pale. Furious. Breaking.“Ava,” he said hoarsely. “Look at me. This isn’t the only way.”She smiled faintly.It hurt to smile. It felt like her face might crack.“You were wrong,” Ava whispered. “There was always only one way.”She pressed her finger down.The tablet chimed softly.SIGNATURE ACCEPTED.Lucien made a sound low, raw, and animal-like. “No”Isabella laughed.Ava’s breath hitched as the restraint around her wrists loosened slightly. Hope stupid, fragile hope sparked in her chest.“You’ll stop it now?” Ava dem

Alright.We go deeper, darker, and more devastating—this chapter tightens the noose and forces Ava into an impossible choice. This is written to hook readers emotionally and psychologically, exactly what GoodNovel editors look for.---Quad PovAvaThe room smelled like antiseptic and metal.Cold. Clean. Merciless.Ava sat strapped to the chair, wrists numb from the restraints, lungs still burning faintly from the gas. The screen in front of her flickered again, stabilizing into a clear image.The NICU.Her heart seized.Ethan sat slumped beside the incubator, pale as death, an IV still taped to his arm. Blood drained steadily from him into a bag that fed into the tiny body inside the glass.Her baby.So small. Too small.The monitor beeped slow, fragile, stubborn.Alive.A sob tore out of her chest.“Look at him,” Isabella said softly, stepping into view beside the screen. “Fighting so hard. Just like you.”Ava didn’t look away. She couldn’t. Her entire world was inside that box.“Wh
Rejected by a Billionaire, Desired by another. CHAPTER 23. The Price of Breath
Quad Pov Ava She came back to consciousness choking. Air tore into her lungs like shards of glass, each breath a violent assault. Ava gasped, body convulsing as rough hands hauled her upright. The chair beneath her scraped against concrete, the sound loud and final. “Easy,” a voice murmured close to her ear. Male. Calm. Controlled. Her vision swam darkness smearing into shapes that refused to settle. Her throat burned. Her mouth tasted of metal, blood pooling along her gums. “Where” Her voice fractured, vanishing into a hoarse rasp. Pain exploded across her cheek. Her head snapped sideways, vision flashing white. “That,” the voice said coolly, “is to keep you awake.” The world snapped into brutal clarity. Concrete walls. Harsh overhead lights. The low hum of generators vibrating through the floor. Her wrists were bound tight to the arms of the chair, circulation cut off, fingers numb and tingling. And then she realized Her arms were empty. “No,” she whispered, dread de
