Morning light filtered through the tall curtains in Aurora’s room, washing the space in a soft golden hue.

She had been awake for a while.

Prepared.

Composed.

Her outfit that day was simple, yet it carried an undeniable authority. Her hair was perfectly styled, her expression calm.

Too calm.

As if today… was more than just an ordinary meeting.

Aurora stood before the mirror, studying her reflection for a few seconds.

“A new game.”

And she… was ready.

Before leaving, her steps shifted.

  • Revenge Born of Betrayal   Chapter 115: The House They Were Beginning to Move Toward

    Darius’s words immediately silenced Aurora Blackwood for several seconds.She stood in the living room, gripping her phone a little tighter.Hazel was still playing on the carpet, unaware of everything happening around her.“Move into your house?” Aurora repeated softly.“For a while.”Aurora immediately rubbed her temple.The problem was—the idea sounded far too reasonable to refuse.And that was exactly why it made her even more uneasy.Because living in Darius Harrington’s house meant allowing the man to step even deeper into her life.“Are you serious?” Aurora finally asked.“I don’t joke about your safety.”Aurora slowly walked toward the living room window.Her gaze fell toward the front gate, which was now guarded far more heavily than usual.Two security vehicles had already been stationed there for the past hour.And all of it existed because of one possibility.Dante Walker.“Aurora.”Darius’s voice came through the phone again.“You’re not safe there alone.”Aurora closed

  • Revenge Born of Betrayal   Chapter 114: The Man Who Started Playing Dirty

    That afternoon, the air inside Peter Walker’s office felt colder than usual.The older man sat calmly behind his desk while reading the thin report in his hands.But the longer he read—the sharper his gaze slowly became.“So it’s true,” Peter muttered quietly.One of his men stood not far from the desk, his head slightly lowered.“We checked the highway surveillance footage and the payment trail connected to the truck, sir.”Peter slowly set the report down.“And?”“The driver received a large amount of cash two days before the incident.”Peter immediately lifted his gaze.“From Dante?”The man hesitated for a few seconds. “Not directly.”Peter narrowed his eyes slightly.“But the person who contacted the driver previously worked on one of Blackwood’s old projects.”The room instantly felt heavier.Peter slowly leaned back in his chair.The older man’s gaze drifted toward the large window behind his desk.And for the first time since releasing Dante Walker from prison—Peter began to

  • Revenge Born of Betrayal   Chapter 113: The Man Who Was Starting to Lose His Mind

    The phone call ended a few minutes later.But Dante Walker still sat motionless in the small apartment, staring blankly out the window.Peter’s words kept echoing inside his head.Dante’s jaw slowly tightened again.By now, he knew Darius Harrington well enough.And that was exactly what made everything feel even worse.Darius was not the type of man who played games.If he had already come this far into Aurora’s life—then there was only one step left.Marriage.The image of Aurora Blackwood standing at the altar beside Darius instantly flashed through Dante’s mind.Hazel in another man’s arms.And the little girl calling another man “father.”“No…” Dante muttered softly.His fists clenched tightly at once.Because no matter what happened—Dante would never allow that to happen.If he was already too late to win Aurora back…then at the very least, he would never let anyone replace him as Hazel’s father.Only he belonged in that place.Only him.But there was one problem now.Darius.

  • Revenge Born of Betrayal   Chapter 112: A Morning That Was No Longer the Same

    Morning came more slowly for Aurora Blackwood.Sunlight filtered softly through the bedroom curtains as the woman slowly opened her eyes.For a few seconds, Aurora simply lay there, staring at the ceiling.Then she noticed something else.Darius Harrington’s arm was still wrapped around her waist.Aurora turned her head slowly.The man was still asleep beside her, his face far more peaceful than usual.And strangely—the sight did not make Aurora panic.Not like before.There was no crushing guilt when she woke up beside him.What Aurora felt now was something calmer.Warmer.As if her body had begun growing accustomed to Darius being by her side.Her gaze dropped briefly to the man’s fingers still resting against her waist.Then, without realizing it—she smiled faintly.But the next second, Hazel’s cries echoed from the next room.Aurora immediately moved on instinct.And the movement caused Darius to slowly open his eyes as well.He blinked several times before finally looking at A

  • Revenge Born of Betrayal   Chapter 111: Aurora Loves Him

    Aurora’s words still lingered softly between them.Darius Harrington looked at her for a long moment.His gaze was far calmer than his heartbeat was right now.Because finally—Aurora Blackwood had stopped running from her feelings.“Aurora,” Darius said softly.But Aurora shook her head first.“I don’t want to love someone again just because I’m afraid of being alone,” she admitted honestly. “I don’t want to choose you only because Dante disappointed me.”Darius slowly lifted his hand and touched the side of her face again.“Then choose me because you want me.”Aurora’s breathing immediately turned uneven.Because the problem was—she really was beginning to want him.Not out of pity. Not out of loneliness. Not because she wanted to forget Dante.Aurora wanted Darius because he made her feel at peace.And somehow, that was far more dangerous.Their gazes held beneath the dim balcony light for a long moment.Then, without realizing it—Aurora moved first.The kiss began slowly.Softly

  • Revenge Born of Betrayal   Chapter 110: A Heart Beginning to Shift

    The days after Dante’s return began falling into an exhausting pattern.He no longer forced his way into Aurora’s house.But Dante never truly left, either.Sometimes he came only to leave small gifts for Hazel at the security post. Sometimes he simply stood outside the gate for a few minutes before quietly leaving again.And strangely enough—that only made it harder for Aurora Blackwood to find peace.Because Dante no longer came as a man full of anger.He came as someone slowly losing everything.But on the other side—Darius Harrington remained there.He never pressured Aurora into making a quick decision. Never demanded answers. Never asked her to erase her past overnight.Darius simply kept staying by her side.And without realizing it—Aurora had begun growing used to his presence.That morning, Aurora sat in the dining room feeding Hazel.The baby giggled softly while banging her small plastic spoon against the table.Aurora smiled faintly.But a few seconds later, her eyes dr
