James paced the length of the empty apartment, his breathing shallow and rapid. The weight of what Scarlett told him crushed him, and her words kept coming back to him. "The baby... it might be Damon's." That confession had broken him, but now, in the silence of his flat, the whole weight of the situation hit him.

A message from Mimi came through on his phone. He didn't pay attention to it because his mind was racing in all directions. Scarlett had him trapped, and he was feeling guilty and angry at the same time. Could he truly leave her again? He had done it once before, closing the door on their past, but now, with the baby and Damon's tricks, the lines were less clear.

A knock on the door woke him up from his daydream. When he opened it, he saw Jaxon standing there. His friend's face was tense with worry as he looked over James's stance.

"Are you okay, man?" Jaxon's voice was quiet, yet there was something else in it.

James raked a hand through his hair, angry. He said, "I don

    "You've come," James muttered, his voice flat, unreadable.Elias didn’t sit. Instead, he stood tall, his hands folded in front of him, like a man accustomed to power. “You’ve been through quite a lot, James. But I believe your usefulness has just begun.” His voice was smooth, calculating.James clenched his fists, his face tightening. “You think I want anything from you? After what you’ve done?”Elias tilted his head slightly, as though he hadn’t expected this reaction. "I’m not here to offer sympathy, James. I’m here to offer you a choice. A way out.”“A way out?” James scoffed, leaning back. “I’m in a cage, Elias. What could you possibly offer me?”Elias's smile didn’t reach his eyes. “Freedom. Control. You can have it all, if you’re willing to do what needs to be done. I’ll help you, but you’ll have to help me in return.”James’s brow furrowed. "What’s your game, Stone?"Elias leaned forward slightly, his voice dropping to a whisper. "You’ll need to destroy Mimi, or lose everything

    Mimi’s hands moved methodically through the cluttered contents of Simeon’s backpack, packing it for their upcoming trip. She folded his clothes neatly, the slight rustling of fabric and the faint hum of the city outside filling the silence. As she reached for a stack of papers near the bottom, her fingers brushed against something cold and metallic. Her breath caught in her throat.Frowning, she pulled out the object, her fingers trembling slightly as she held it up to the light. It was small, sleek, and unmistakably a tracking device. Mimi’s pulse quickened, and a shiver ran down her spine. How could this have gotten in here?Her eyes darted to the rest of the bag. The thought that someone—anyone—could have planted it there sent a chill of dread through her chest. She looked back at the device in her hand, her mind racing.The faintest creak of the floorboards made her turn. Jaxon stood in the doorway, his brow furrowed in concern.“What is it?” he asked, his voice low but laced with

    The sudden vibration of her phone broke her concentration, and Lyra glanced at the screen. A text from an anonymous number flashed: “He’s not just pulling the strings. He’s the one who started it all.”Her pulse quickened. She had known this was bigger than James, but this… this was more than she could have anticipated. Elias Stone’s reach extended far beyond what she’d thought.Lyra’s fingers hovered over the keyboard as she connected the dots. Damon, the name that had lingered in her mind for so long. She recalled the late-night conversations, the whispered rumors of Damon’s involvement with Elias—both tangled in a web of corruption, deceit, and violence.A flash of fear tightened her chest as she typed the name into the search bar. The results were instant, and they left her breathless. Elias Stone’s connection to Damon was undeniable.Her hand shook as she clicked on the link to a public record from years ago, detailing shady financial dealings that spanned continents. It was all

    He hesitated before answering, his thumb brushing the screen. “Hello?”The voice on the other end was low, almost a growl. “Jaxon. You took my wife. I’ll take everything from you.”Mimi froze at the sound of James’s voice, too familiar, too chilling. She had been trying to block out the fear, pretending that James’s reappearance wasn’t a shadow over her life, but hearing him now, speaking like a curse that wouldn’t break, made it all too real.Jaxon’s jaw clenched, his knuckles whitening around the phone. His voice dropped, barely controlled. “You’ll never get near her again.”“Is that so?” James’s voice came back, smooth as velvet, cold as ice. “I’ll take my time, Jaxon. But I’ll get to her. And when I do, you’ll be nothing more than a memory.”Jaxon’s eyes narrowed, his pulse quickening. “You don’t scare me, James.” But even as the words left his mouth, a flicker of doubt crossed his mind. The man he was facing now was not the one he had once known—he was darker, colder. And his obs

    “Jaxon,” she called, her voice tight with worry. “Are you sure this is enough? What if—what if they’re still watching us?”Jaxon appeared in the doorway, a deep frown on his face. His usual calm demeanor was gone, replaced by the edge of someone preparing for war. “We’ve done everything we can. This is the best we’ve got. James won’t find a way in unless he gets past this.”His eyes softened as he stepped toward her, his hand gently brushing her arm. “You’re safe here, Mimi. I won’t let him hurt you.”She gave him a strained smile but couldn’t shake the feeling that this wasn’t enough. There was always something lurking around the corner. Something she couldn’t see, but she could feel. She had to make sure Jaxon was safe, too. The weight of responsibility pressed harder now.She nodded, still unsure, when she heard it. The unmistakable sound of a knock at the door.She froze, heart hammering in her chest. Jaxon immediately tensed beside her.“Who’s there?” Mimi whispered.No answer.S

    Mimi’s footsteps echoed in the silent hallway as she approached the front door. She had just returned from a long day of meetings, her mind clouded with thoughts of the future. But as she reached for the door handle, a sense of unease crawled up her spine.There, resting on the doorstep, was a bouquet of black roses. Their dark petals stood in stark contrast to the crisp white envelope nestled between the stems. Mimi’s breath caught in her throat.She hadn’t ordered any flowers.Her fingers hovered over the bouquet, as though afraid it would bite. The scent of the roses hit her first—thick, pungent, suffocating. She bent down slowly, the hairs on the back of her neck rising as her eyes scanned the note.Mimi’s heart pounded in her chest as she read the simple words:“Did you miss me?”The handwriting was unmistakable. It was James’s.She staggered back, a wave of dread crashing over her. The past she had worked so hard to bury was now at her doorstep. Her hands shook as she reached fo
