“Tell me you didn't do it.”

Serena's voice was barely audible.

Alexander stood in the middle of Damian's apartment, his phone still pressed against his ear. The call with the hospital had ended, but the nurse's words continued to echo in his mind.

    “Tell me you didn't do it.” Serena's voice was barely audible. Alexander stood in the middle of Damian's apartment, his phone still pressed against his ear. The call with the hospital had ended, but the nurse's words continued to echo in his mind. Someone had taken Serena's mother using his personal security credentials. Someone had entered a hospital room, bypassed security, and disappeared with a woman who knew the truth about a murder committed ten years ago. And Serena was looking at him as if he were the enemy. “Serena,” he said carefully, “I had nothing to do with your mother's disappearance.” “Then how did they use your credentials?” “I don't know.” “You always say that.” Her eyes filled with tears, but her voice grew stronger. “You didn't know what happened to my father. You didn't know why your mother disappeared. You didn't know why someone was threatening us. And now my mother is missing, and the people responsible have access to your security system.”

    The gun was pointed directly at Serena's chest. For a moment, she couldn't breathe. The stranger stood at the entrance of the underground vault, his gray eyes fixed on her with a disturbing mixture of recognition and resentment. Rainwater dripped from his coat onto the stone floor. He looked like a man who had spent ten years hiding from the world—and had finally decided to stop running. Alexander stepped in front of Serena. “Lower the gun.” The stranger laughed. “You still give orders as if your father's money makes you untouchable.” “Who are you?” “You already know who I am.” “No,” Alexander answered coldly. “I know what you look like. I want to know why you're here.” The man tilted his head. “Still your father's son. Always demanding answers, never willing to ask the right questions.” Alexander's jaw tightened. “I won't ask again.” “And what will you do if I refuse? Shoot me?” The stranger raised his eyebrows. “Go ahead. You have your father's temper, but you never ha

    Serena stared at the photograph in her trembling hands.Three men stood beneath the dim lights of a parking garage.

Beside him stood Richard Sterling, the late father of the man Serena had begun to trust.The third man’s face had been scratched out.But the words written on the back of the photograph were clear.If you want to know who killed your father, ask Alexander Sterling what happened at eleven forty-seven that night.Eleven forty-seven.The exact time recorded on her father's death certificate.Serena felt as though the entire world had tilted beneath her feet.Alexander Sterling had paid for her mother's surgery.

    Serena couldn't breathe.She stared at the message on her phone, reading every word again and again, hoping that somehow the letters would rearrange themselves into something less terrifying.Your father didn't die in an accident.For fifteen years, she had believed that her father had died when his car plunged off a mountain road during a business trip. Her mother had told her that the police found the wreckage the following morning and that there had been nothing anyone could do.Serena had been nine years old.She still remembered standing beside her mother's bed that night, asking when Daddy would come home.Her mother had cried for hours before finally holding Serena against her chest and whispering, "He's not coming back, sweetheart."Now, a stranger was telling her that everything she had believed might be a lie.And somehow, Alexander Sterling was connected to it."Serena."Alexander's voice pulled her from her thoughts.She looked up.He stood a few feet away, his expression

    Some nights begin with a mistake. Others begin with a desire neither heart can deny.The Hospital CorridorSerena had no idea how long she had been crying.All she knew was that Alexander Sterling's arms were around her, his expensive suit was damp from her tears, and for the first time that evening, she could finally breathe.She pulled away abruptly, embarrassed by her behavior."I'm sorry," she whispered, wiping her cheeks. "I shouldn't have done that."Alexander glanced at the front of his suit before looking at her again."Done what?""Cried all over you.""I've survived worse things than a little water, Miss Alvarado."Despite herself, Serena let out a small laugh.It was the first time she had laughed since receiving the hospital's message.Alexander studied her face.
