~Dominic’s POV~

The rain had been falling for hours, quiet but steady, the kind of sound that made the silence in my house feel heavier. I sat in the living room, staring at the half-finished glass of whiskey on the table when my phone began to buzz.

Aliyah.

Her name lit up the screen, and my chest tightened. I hadn’t heard from her since that night. We had dinner and Ronald held her tight in front of me.

I hesitated for a second, then answered. “Aliyah?”

Her voice came in shaky, barely above a

    ~Aliyah's Pov~Dominic rushed out of the kitchen almost immediately, his footsteps quick and urgent against the floor.Concern flashed across his face the moment his eyes landed on me.“What's wrong, Aliyah?” he asked, closing the distance between us in seconds. His gaze moved over me rapidly, scanning for any sign of injury. “Are you hurt?”“No… the…” My voice faltered.The words refused to come out properly. Instead, I lifted my hand slightly, pointing toward the ground, my fingers trembling faintly.His brows drew together as he followed my line of sight.For a brief second, he said nothing.Then his expression shifted, subtle, but noticeable, as he gave a cautious and alert look.He glanced around instinctively, his eyes sweeping the surroundings like he expected someone to be watching us. But the area was still and quiet. Too quiet.Slowly, he bent down and picked up the rose. It looked harmless.Just a single red rose.But somehow, it felt like the most dangerous thing in the w

    ~Aliyah's Pov~It has been the same endless headlines for days now, as we have been staying in this isolated mountain area. Endless noise.No matter how many times I refreshed the page, no matter how many platforms I switched to, the story never changed. It was like the world had latched onto one narrative and refused to let it go.I sat there, curled slightly into myself, my phone in hand as I scrolled again, though I already knew what I would see.#cursedbride##TwoTimeWifeForTheVoss#Aliyah Burnett—who is she really? A curse. #From one Voss to another.#My jaw tightened.The words blurred together after a while, but the sting didn’t lessen. If anything, it dug deeper with each repetition, each careless comment from strangers who knew nothing about me, yet spoke like they owned my story.I exhaled sharply, my grip tightening around the phone.For a second, I almost threw it across the room but then….A voice cut through the noise, familiar yet calculated.Victor Hale.My eyes narr

    ~Aliyah's Pov~Days passed in a blur.Everything moved so quickly, yet somehow felt slow at the same time, like I was drifting through moments without fully holding onto them. The fear of Ronald’s sudden interference lingered in the back of my mind, constant and unsettling, like a shadow that refused to leave.That was why Dominic had suggested it.A secret wedding.Something small and private with only a few important people, those we trusted, would be there.To avoid noise, chaos, and any room for interruption.And now…here I am.Standing in front of the mirror, my reflection staring right back at me, dressed in white once again.Clara stood behind me, focused as she carefully added the final touches to my makeup. Her hands were steady, precise, as if she understood just how much this moment meant.“You will make the most beautiful bride, Aliyah,” she said softly, a small smile tugging at her lips as she leaned in slightly to adjust something near my eyes.I let out a quiet breath,

    ~Dominic's Pov~Everything unfolding around me wasn’t exactly how I had imagined it, not even close.Despite everything, despite my mother’s cold words, her public disowning, the way she had cut me off as if I meant nothing… I was still a Voss.That name… it wasn’t something you simply walked away from, it was blood and legacy and no matter how far I tried to distance myself from it, it still clung to me.I couldn’t just stand by and watch a rival tear down everything my father had built. I couldn’t pretend it had nothing to do with me.‘How would I face my ancestors in the future?’ The thought echoed heavily in my mind as I strode down the stairs, my steps firm, measured.Each step felt like a decision, a commitment and a burden I couldn’t ignore.I exhaled deeply, running a hand through my hair as a strange sense of relief settled over my shoulders.But even with that, the truth remained…the Voss company… it wasn’t entirely my responsibility anymore. It has Ronald now.But Aliyah?A

    ~Aliyah's Pov~The ride to Clara’s house felt longer than it should have.Every second stretched endlessly, each passing street making my heart pound harder against my chest. I sat stiffly, my fingers curled tightly in my lap, my thoughts racing ahead of me.What if we’re too late?What if something has already happened?The silence in the car didn’t help. Even with Dominic beside me, calm and focused, I couldn’t shake the unease gnawing at me from the inside.Finally, the car slowed and stopped.“We’re here,” Dominic said quietly.I didn’t wait.The moment the car halted completely, I pushed the door open and rushed out, my steps quick and unsteady as I made my way straight into the building.Behind me, I vaguely saw Dominic sorting out the payment, grabbing our luggage, but I didn’t slow down.I couldn’t.All that mattered was Clara.I reached her apartment door in seconds and knocked.Once.Twice.Three times.It was hard and urgent, but I got no response.My heart dropped instantl

    ~Ronald's Pov~I slept over at Clara’s house.Of course… it hadn’t been easy.Getting her to agree had taken more effort than I expected. She fought me, argued, resisted, demanded explanations, but in the end, none of it mattered. I took control of the situation the only way I knew how.I seized her phone.Took it from her hands before she could stop me. After restraining her, after making sure she couldn’t interfere, I kept the device close, my eyes fixed on the screen like it held the outcome of everything.Because in a way… it did.I had no real intention of hurting her, as that was never the goal, she was just… leverage.A means to an end.What I needed was Aliyah.And this…this was the only way to make her come back. To force her out of hiding and to make her choose.And as I stared at the message glowing on the screen, something dark and satisfied settled in my chest.She had responded.She finally took the bait.A slow breath left my lips as I read her message again, letting it
