Eunia

The revelation hangs heavy in my mind as I watch Logan pace around the room, his phone pressed so hard against his ear I'm surprised the screen doesn't crack.

My heart thuds against my ribs as I force myself to remain still, to keep a solemn expression on my face even as my mind races.

Logan's still snarling into the phone, his words coming faster and more vicious now. "I want a full report on my desk within the hour! Every single investor he's contacted, every meeting he's scheduled, every goddamn breath he takes—I want to know about it!"

His face flushes red, the vein in his temple throbbing with each ragged breath. The anger rolling off him is indisputable, filling the room like smoke.

I wait for him to end the call, remaining still and quiet while Logan continues his tirade, my hands itching to confirm if it's who I hope it is.

The call finally ends and Logan stands there breathing hard, staring at his phone like he wants to throw it out the window.

This is my chance.

    EuniaI've never been more certain about wanting to get away from this horrific version of my life than I have about anything else."I won't." I state firmly.Cole nods slowly. "Then I'll be in touch soon. Keep your phone on."I reach for the door handle, but his voice stops me."Eunia."I turn back. "Yes?"He leans closer. Close enough that I can see the flecks of lighter blue in his irises. Close enough that I'm able to whiff that brilliant musky scent."For what it's worth," he says quietly, “I think you're incredibly fearless.”His word catches me off guard, and I look away before embarrassment can make its marks on my cheeks. “I'm not fearless… I'm just desperate.”“Those two things aren't mutually exclusive.” His hand reaches out, fingers brushing against my jaw to turn my face back toward his. “You're willing to risk everything for your freedom. That takes courage.”“Thank you,” I whisper.He smiles at me. That same charming smile from earlier that turned my mind to a mess. "Do

    EuniaHe turns to look at me. "For what?""For agreeing to this… for agreeing to help me out of an impossible situation." He has no idea that he's making all my dreams come true. The only wish I’ve stored in my heart the moment I resurrected in this timeline. When I thought all hope was lost… he appeared right in front of me.I don't know if we'd have ever met in my first life, but I want you to know you've made me undeniably believe that I've got a shot at real happiness again. For that, I'll always be grateful.The words were heavy on my tongue but I could never say them out loud.Cole studies me for a long moment before he finally speaks. "Don't thank me yet," he remarks, his voice low as he continues working on the pictures. "We haven't pulled it off yet."“Right.” I return.But there's something in the way he said that, that makes me believe maybe, and just maybe, this crazy plan might actually work.“Let me drive you home,” he suddenly offers, slipping his phone into his pocket

    Eunia We stay at the restaurant for another hour after that, Cole insisting that we need to discuss logistics if we're going to pull this off convincingly."When do you want to execute your plan?" he asks, pulling out his phone.I try to focus. I try to ignore the way my hand still tingles from where he kissed. "As soon as possible. The engagement with Logan will be finalized soon and I suspect I'll be married to him in just a couple weeks.""Want to be more specific?""Within the next week." I glance up, meeting his eyes, certainty dripping from my voice. My mind was already made up.Cole nods, typing something into his phone. "Then we'll need to move fast. The paparazzi leak needs to happen within the next few days.""I can handle that part," I say quickly.He glances up at me. "Have you done something like this before?""No, but—""Then let me handle it," he cuts me off smoothly. "I have contacts who specialize in strategic information distribution."Of course he does."It'll mak

    EuniaRelief floods through me so fast, I'm left feeling dizzy. “But,” he continues, and my relief soon evaporates, “you'll have to abide by my rules. Not the other way around.”I stare at him, realizing with a sinking feeling that he's played me like a true businessman. I'd been so sure I was in control. That I was the one calling the shots, setting the terms. But somehow he's now the one making the rules for the contract I proposed.And I either have to agree or be stuck with Logan for the rest of my life and I'd rather swim in a tank filled with piranhas.A sigh escapes my lips as my mind races but the answer is already clear as day. “Madamme, Monsieur, are you ready to place your orders?” a waiter asks, appearing beside us but I'm too immersed in my own thoughts to pay any attention. It's only Cole's voice that pulls me back.“Would you like anything?” he asks.“No, thank you.” I murmur. As if I'd be able to digest anything as it stands. The waiter nods with a kind smile and wa

    Eunia“But you hate Logan too,” I argue, a mix of dread and desperation tangling in my voice. “That's why you've been trying to sabotage him, right? Poaching all his investors? Partnering with me will make things easy for you.”“I don't actually hate Logan,” he corrects calmly. “Hate is a strong word. I don't care for him enough to allocate such strong feelings towards him.”My heart sinks. I stare at Cole, confusion and panic rising up inside me. What does he mean by he doesn't hate Logan? That was the backbone of this entire plan. My gaze dramatically plummets to my trembling fingers. “If anything,” he continues. “I consider Logan a nuisance. No better than a pesky housefly. Especially during our university days when he kept following me around like a lost puppy.”I almost cackle.Logan being compared to a ‘housefly’ and ‘lost puppy’ might just be the highlight of my day. I shake off all my doubt and lean forward in my seat, my eyes sparkling.I still have a shot!“I don't believe

    Eunia He leans back in his chair, and something like amusement crosses his features. “You're quite the character,” he says slowly, “daring to make such an offer.”My breath catches,Is that a good thing or a bad thing?“How am I supposed to trust you,” he continues, “if you're willing to betray your own fiancé so easily?”My lips press into a thin line as his words hit me like a punch to the gut. He's right. I might've gotten too caught up in my own plan. A puff of air escapes my lips, I must look like a vicious woman right now, a horrible one practically begging to sell out her own fiancé. But his image of me is the least of my worries right now.I straighten my shoulders and regain my composure. “It's okay if you don't trust me. That's what our contract is for. It'll ensure we both uphold our end of the bargain.”Cole studies me for a long moment. “I'm curious,” he finally says. “You made this offer without a sliver of doubt in your voice. You even doubled down when I questioned y
