The silence in Vernon’s study was almost suffocating.

    The streetlights cast a soft amber glow across the quiet parking lot behind Bessa’s apartment complex. Tessa had come to see her because, she had been absent from work for a while and she was really worried about her, Kelsey was on her way. they were both planning on sleeping over. The breeze rustled through the trees, carrying the scent of wet asphalt and exhaust. She had just gotten out of the car Vernon had sent for her — the ride quiet, filled with too many things unsaid. As she stepped onto the sidewalk, fumbling in her bag for her keys, a familiar voice stopped her cold. “Tessa.” She turned slowly, already knowing who it was. Nickolas stood a few feet away, his jacket slung over one shoulder, the sleeves of his white shirt rolled up to his elbows. He looked tired. But not just the kind of tired that came from a long day at work — he looked emotionally wrecked. His eyes were dark, his jaw tight. “How long have you been standing there?” she asked quietly. “Long enough,” h

    Becca stood frozen in the doorway, eyes red and swollen, lips trembling. Her body was stiff, like the world had drained the last ounce of strength she had left. Zayne stood on the other side, hands clenched at his sides, jaw tight. The moment he saw her face, his heart cracked a little more. “I told you to go away,” she whispered, her voice breaking. “And I didn’t listen.” His tone was soft but firm. Her gaze dropped, lashes heavy with uncried tears. She looked so lost. “I thought I could handle it,” she said quietly, her voice barely audible. “I thought... maybe if I helped him, if I showed him I cared, he’d finally see me.” Zayne stepped inside, shutting the door behind him. “But he didn’t,” she added, laughing bitterly. “He brought her. He kissed her. In front of me. Like I was just... just some friend with a favor.” She didn’t even realize she was crying again until Zayne reached out and wiped a tear from her cheek. Becca flinched. “I’m sorry,” he said, pulling his hand

    Becca stood by the door, straightening her shirt and running a hand through her hair. She had barely slept the night before, too busy wondering what to wear, what to say, how not to seem too excited. Noah had texted her two days ago: “Let’s hang out. You said you were bored, remember?” Of course she remembered. She’d said it hoping he’d ask. A soft knock pulled her from her thoughts. She pulled open the door, her smile already forming. But it froze halfway. Noah stood there, alright. But he wasn’t alone. Next to him, arms looped around his, was Sasha. Her long blonde hair fell perfectly over one shoulder, her makeup effortlessly flawless. She gave Becca a tight, gleaming smile. Becca’s stomach dropped. “What is she doing here?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady. Noah grinned like it was the best news in the world. “We’re back together!” he announced. “Crazy, right? Honestly, thank you. You helped me realize how much I missed her.” Before Becca could process t

    The graveyard was eerily quiet.Clouds swirled above like dark omens, casting the world in shadows. The scent of rain hung in the air, mixing with the heavy perfume of lilies and the weight of mourning.Tessa stood beside Vernon at the back of the cemetery, her hands clasped in front of her, knuckles white. The black dress she wore clung to her like a second skin, and though she looked composed, inside, she was drowning.Dominic's casket rested at the edge of the open earth, a cruel reminder that he was truly gone. Her chest tightened. He was one of the few people who never asked her to be anything other than herself. And now…Gone.A whisper of heels on gravel pulled her from her thoughts.Tessa looked up—and instantly regretted it.Dominic’s mother was storming toward her. Her eyes were bloodshot, her face twisted in grief and fury. “You have the audacity to show your face here?”Tessa didn’t answer. She couldn’t.“I told you to stay away! He’s dead because of you!” the woman shriek

    Becca hadn’t looked up from her desk all morning. Her fingers moved over the keyboard mechanically, and the soft clacking was the only sound keeping her grounded. Zayne hadn’t stopped trying to catch her eye since she walked in. She felt it — the way his gaze followed her like a shadow, dragging along her spine. He had no right. And yet, here he was, acting like he was the wounded one. When Becca stood to hand over some reports to HR, she didn’t expect to feel fingers wrap around her wrist the second she turned a corner. “Zayne, let go—” He pulled her gently but firmly into the nearest hallway, one lined with filing cabinets and absent of witnesses. “Seriously?” she hissed. “What the hell do you want?” “You’ve been ignoring me all morning,” he said, his voice low. “You’ve been avoiding me for a week,” she snapped. He narrowed his eyes. “You’re angry?” She folded her arms, jaw clenched. “No.” He stepped closer, expression unreadable. “Why are you upset? Are we dating?” That
