Alessandra's POV.

"I'm sorry. I know how this must sound, but... I met your mother a year before she got sick," the woman says, her voice steady but careful. "Through a mutual friend.....Mrs. Russo."

Alex shifts beside me, arms crossed, her eyes narrowing.

“She left something for both of you,” the woman continues. “I was supposed to give it to you when you turned eighteen. But I heard you weren’t together at the time… and she was very clear. You had to watch it together.”

She glances between us before continuing.

“Then I heard about your accident from Mrs. Russo and I figured you’d both be here. When I saw your uncle....” she gives him a small nod “I recognized a familiar face.”

He nods back, slowly, but says nothing.

Alex speaks first. “So why would we believe you? She could’ve just used the family lawyer.”

“Peach” Uncle mutters.

“What?” Alex shrugs. “I’m just being honest.”

The woman doesn’t seem offended. If anything, she almost smiles as she turns her eyes back

  • Ruin Me: Falling for My Best Friend’s Fiancée   Hundred and fourteen

    Alessandra’s POV “Uncle?” “Let’s go, bean. Everyone’s waiting for you.” His voice was calm, but his eyes never touched mine. They were locked on Killian—and if looks could kill, Killian wouldn’t be standing right now. I tried to pull away, but Killian didn’t move. He kept holding me, eyes fixed on mine like the rest of the world didn’t exist. Please. I begged him with just a look. My throat felt too tight to speak at first. But then I did. “Let me go,” I said quietly. “You’ll find someone one day. Someone who chooses you. I’m sorry that someone wasn’t me.” Each word scraped against my chest as I forced it out. I could feel something breaking.....cracking open between us. His eyes darkened. Whatever he was thinking, I didn’t want to know. I just knew I wouldn’t like it and things wouldn't go well for me if he goes through with it. “Please,” I whispered again, “let me go.” And for the first time in a long time, I saw him blink like it physically hurt. I begged him....and fin

  • Ruin Me: Falling for My Best Friend’s Fiancée   Hundred and Thirteen

    Alessandra's POV. For a moment, I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t move. I just stood there, staring—like my brain needed time to believe what my eyes were seeing. It was him. Really him. My gaze drifted lower, down to his abdomen. The spot I’d aimed at. The spot where I .... My lips began to tremble, the breath in my chest catching like it didn’t want to be released. Something inside me cracked, just barely holding together. Stella gave my shoulder a gentle tap. “I’ll tell makeup to be on standby,” she said, her voice lighter now. “And please…..let yourself be happy.” I half-turned toward her, but I didn’t take my eyes off him. I couldn’t. I was terrified that if I blinked, he’d disappear.. Stella was already heading for the door when she called over her shoulder, “And for the love of all things expensive, please don’t have sex in that dress. We don’t have a backup.” A tiny scoff escaped my throat....barely there. And then it was just us. I looked back at him. Killian. Alive.

  • Ruin Me: Falling for My Best Friend’s Fiancée   Hundred and Twelve

    Alessandra's POV I stood by the window, my fingers brushing the cold glass.Wouldn’t it be better if I just died?I may have killed the only person who truly cared about me. And now, I had to go on like nothing happened ....I still have to acknowledge Alex as my sister and Luke Castillo as my father, Marry Jeremy and have children for him within the year.I was dying slowly anyways ...why not just But then.....there was Mum.Her face flashed in my mind, and I stepped back from the edge. I couldn’t do that to her. I couldn’t break her that way..... If I die here she'll be in that prison ,that hell hole for the rest of her life, So I did what I always did.....shoved the pain down and moved like it didn’t exist.I threw my hair up into a quick bun, pulled on jeans and a top, and opened the door to leave.Only to slam right into someone.Lia.Her fist was lifted, frozen mid-knock. I stared at her, heart racing, unsure if she’d come to finish what I started.Would she slap me? Scream at

  • Ruin Me: Falling for My Best Friend’s Fiancée   Hundred and Eleven

    Alessandra's POV. I didn’t have my phone on me, so I couldn’t exactly call anyone. My father’s men had been stationed outside the door since I got here. They hadn’t let anyone in—not even to drop off a message. Not Jeremy. Not Lia. Not Ronan. No one had come to see me What did I expect? I shot their son and I shot his brother.. There’s a good chance Lia wants to shoot me right now. And maybe she should. But still…..the Salvatores are big on family. Even when they’re angry. Even when it hurts. It’s just a few minutes to my last grace as a Castillo. I turned my eyes to the wedding dress that was on the manquien . It was beautiful—delicate beading, soft lace, something right out of a bridal magazine. But it wasn’t me. If I had paid more attention when it was being made… maybe I would’ve spoken up. Maybe I would’ve asked for something different. Something that felt more like mine. I stood up slowly and walked over to it, dragging my fingers across the bodice. Cold fabric. Perfe

  • Ruin Me: Falling for My Best Friend’s Fiancée   Hundred and Ten

    Alessandra's POV. “I’m here…” I said, my voice barely above a whisper as the alarm went off “I made it back on time. Please, don’t hurt her.” I ran toward the guards, breathless, my legs numb, my heart beating so loud it drowned everything else out. I turned to go back. I had to. But one of them grabbed my arm and held me back. “No...no, i need to go back,” I cried, struggling against his grip. “Please, I need to help him. He’s bleeding. I…..I shot him.” The words hit me all over again. I shot him. A sob broke from my throat, full and raw. I didn’t mean to. God, I didn’t mean to. But he wouldn’t have let me go. I know Killian. I know him. If I stayed, we would still be there going in circles and I would’ve caved.... I would’ve told him everything. He would’ve taken the world apart to help me but my mother would be dead. “I had to,” I said through tears, as if trying to convince myself. “I thought of everything. A hundred ways to get out. But none of them got me here fast eno

    Killian's POV Present Day. "What did you just say?" My voice came out lower than I meant. I wasn’t even sure I’d heard her right. "I didn’t stutter, did I? Get off me." She shoved at my chest, and I let her get up. I didn’t move at first. My mind was still spinning, trying to make sense of it....what she said, the way she said it, the way it burned going in like a brand I couldn’t rip off. She climbed out of the car, hands shaking as she grabbed her sweatpants and pulled them on, back turned to me like she couldn’t bear to look at me right now. I tucked myself back in, got my breathing under control, and followed her outside. The air hit me hard, sharp against my skin. She stood there with her arms crossed, staring out at nothing. "What’s going on?" I asked, keeping my voice calm even though every nerve in me was already screaming. "Nothing is going on," she said. Her tone was flat. Distant. "I’m just done. I’m allowed to be done." Done. It echoed in my chest l
