Ethan POV:

My knuckles had turned red the moment I stepped out of the car, my fingers clenched so tightly that the veins beneath my skin protruded like strained cables. I flexed my hand absently, trying to shake the tension away, but it was pointless. It was embedded too deep.

The car ride was mortifying, the low hum of conversation between John and Carlo barely registering in my mind. Their voices melded into the background, mere noise compared to the chaos raging inside my head.

She was right there. Right in front of me. And yet, the moment our eyes met, she turned and ran. As if I were something to be avoided. As if I were nothing.

How many fucking times was she going to keep running from me.

    DarlaIt’s been four years.Four years since I left this place, since I walked away from everything. Four years since I boarded that plane, carrying nothing but heartbreak, regret, and the weight of a past I couldn’t face.Now, I’m back.The moment I step out of the plane, the cold air wraps around me like an old friend. Almost comforting. The sharp breeze stings against my skin, but I welcome it. I breathe it in, deep and slow, letting the chill seep into my bones.I never thought I’d come back. Not after everything. Not after the way I left.But I had to.There are things I left behind—unfinished business, ghosts that refuse to rest. And I am more than capable of dealing with them now.People always say revenge is dangerous. That it’s a poison, a fire that consumes everything in its path, including the one who wields it. They warn you about how demanding it is, how it strips away your soul piece by piece.But what they don’t tell you—what no one ever admits—is how thrilling it is.H

    Roy’s POV“What’s on your mind, buddy?”King’s voice cut through my thoughts, but I barely registered it. His beer bottle clinked softly against the table as he leaned back into his chair, watching me.It was already past three in the afternoon, and I was on my third bottle—maybe fourth. I wasn’t even sure anymore.I thought coming here—having a few drinks with the boys—would help clear my head. It didn’t.We were sitting in the VIP section of Rooftop Bar, a place I had been to countless times before, but today, it felt suffocating. The blue fluorescent lights flickered every few seconds, casting shadows across the table, matching the haze in my mind. The thick, drawn curtains blocked out any sunlight, making it impossible to tell whether it was day or night.A fitting atmosphere for the way I felt inside.I had to get her out of my head.But I couldn’t.Darla.From the minute she crashed my anniversary, I hadn’t been able to think of anything else.Her voice.Her words.The way she l
