Reluctant Love Reckless Heir Chapter 31
Victor’s POVI sat in the dimly lit room, watching the flickering flame of my cigar as it burned slowly. The past few months had been nothing but setbacks. Every plan I made was ruined before it could come to fruition.Adrian had been a thorn in my side for too long, and I was done playing games.I turned my gaze to the men gathered before me fighters, assassins, and ex-convicts who had nothing to lose. They were the kind of men willing to spill blood for the right price.A slow smirk stretched across my lips. “Gentlemen, it’s time we stop waiting and start acting.”The room fell silent as they leaned forward.“We’ve been patient. We’ve been careful. And what has it gotten us? Nothing. Adrian Knight still breathes. Isla is still untouched. And Lucian still holds power in his absence.” I exhaled sharply. “I’m done waiting. We strike. And this time, we don’t stop until they are on their knees, begging.”One of my men, a burly brute named Rico, his my right hand man, he cracked his knuck

Isla’s POVPregnancy had officially turned me into a lunatic.I knew it. Adrian knew it. The entire house knew it.And honestly? I didn’t care.“Adrian!” I wailed from the bed, hugging my oversized pillow as tears streamed down my face. “I need it now! If I don’t get it, I swear, I’m going to…”Adrian burst into the room, out of breath, looking half-panicked and entirely exhausted.“What? What happened?” he demanded, scanning the room like we were under attack.I glared at him through my tears. “I want to eat the moon.”Adrian blinked. Then exhaled sharply.“The moon?” he repeated, rubbing his temple.“Yes!” I sniffled dramatically. “I was watching a documentary about space, and now I need to eat the moon. It looks so soft, like marshmallows. Why can’t I have it?”Adrian just stared at me.Lucian, who had been standing at the door, choked on his laughter. “Good luck with that one, man.”Adrian shot him a glare before turning back to me. “Isla, monkey, I….”I sobbed harder. “You don’t
Reluctant Love Reckless Heir CHAPTER 29 – First Person POV
Lily’s POV He snubbed me, he didn't come as promised Desperation was an ugly thing.It twisted inside me like a venomous snake, filling me with anger, jealousy, and something much darker.Adrian was mine.Or at least, he should have been.I saved him. I took care of him. I loved him.And yet, he threw it all away for her.For that pathetic woman carrying his child.My fingers trembled as I stared at the pictures spread across my desk photos of Isla. Isla at the hospital. Isla at home. Isla shopping for baby clothes.She was glowing. Happy. Untouchable.I clenched my jaw. That needed to change.If I couldn’t have Adrian… then neither could she.I picked up my phone and dialed a number. The man on the other end answered immediately.“Everything is set?” I asked, my voice steady.“Yes, ma’am,” he confirmed. “We’re just waiting for your signal.”I closed my eyes, inhaling deeply.There was no turning back now.“Do it.”Isla’s POVThe sharp, violent sound of glass shattering jolted me
Reluctant Love Reckless Heir Chapter 28
Adrian’s POVI stepped outside the cabin, my bare feet pressing against the wet grass. The air was cold and thick And then I saw them.Three men. Dressed in dark clothes, their faces strange and a bit dark. They stood a few feet away, watching me.Something about them felt… familiar.One of them, the tallest, took a step forward. “We’ve been looking for you.”I stiffened. “Who are you?”The man exchanged glances with the others. “You don’t remember us?”I shook my head.A flicker of something crossed his face, relief? No… something else.“I don’t even know who I am,” I admitted.The men seemed to hesitate. Then, another one stepped forward. “You’re important,” he said carefully. “More important than you realize.” “How do you know that?”The first man, the leader I guessed, spoke again. “Because we’ve been searching for you for months.”Lily’s fingers tightened around my arm. “He doesn’t need to go anywhere,” she snapped. “He’s fine here.”The leader’s gaze flicked to her, then back
Reluctant Love Reckless Heir CHAPTER 27
Isla’s POVPain.That was the first thing I felt.A sharp, searing pain that spread through my back and stomach like wildfire. My head pounded, and my limbs felt heavy as if I had been asleep for too long.The beeping of machines filled my ears, rhythmic and steady, but it only made my anxiety worse.Something was wrong.My eyes fluttered open, the bright hospital lights making me wince. It took me a moment to adjust, to process where I was.The hospital.I tried to move, but a stabbing pain shot through my abdomen, making me gasp.Then I remembered.The stairs.The argument.The gut-wrenching fall.And my baby.My breath caught in my throat as panic set in. My hands flew to my stomach, desperate to feel something, anything.Was my baby okay?Before I could spiral further, a warm hand grabbed mine.“Hey, hey, don’t move too much,” Sophie’s voice soothed, though I could hear the strain in her tone.I turned my head to see her sitting beside my bed, her face pale, dark circles under he

ISLA A Few Hours LaterI refused to drop the subject.Sophie and Lucian were running out of excuses. Moments later, my phone buzzed."Hey, love. I’m sorry I missed your call. Meetings have been crazy. I miss you too. I’ll call soon. Take care of yourself, alright?"Adrian’s name was at the top of the message, but something felt off.I reread the text.It sounded like him, but at the same time… it didn’t because Adrian doesn't call me love.I turned to Sophie. "Why didn’t he send a voice note?"Sophie laughed nervously. "Isla, stop overthinking. You know how Adrian is. He’s probably too busy to record one."Lucian chimed in, "And knowing Adrian, he’s probably pissed that we even texted him. He doesn’t like distractions."That part was true.Still, I wasn’t convinced."Then let’s call him now," I said firmly. "Just for a few seconds."Then, as if the universe was on their side, Lucian’s phone rang. He quickly answered. "Yes? Okay. Give me a second."He turned to me. "That was Adrian’
