Chad's POV

SCREECH—

I slammed the brakes. The car jolted violently, headlights slicing through the darkness like a blade—

And then I saw her.

My heart nearly stopped.

Aria.

She was stumbling toward me, clothes torn, hair disheveled, her face streaked with tears and terror.

Behind her, a pack of drunk lowlifes cursed and chased, their laughter like nails on a chalkboard.

"Get in!" I threw the door open and shouted.

She lunged forward like her life depended on it. I reached across, yanked open the passenger door, pulled her in, slammed it shut—and in the same motion, drew my gun and pointed it squarely at the bastards chasing her.

"Police! Freeze!"

The gun's cold gleam reflected off the streetlight.

That sobered them up real fast.

Their faces drained of color, they stumbled backward, cursed under their breath—then bolted like roaches.

Only when they vanished into the shadows did I turn back and open the driver's side door.

Aria was curled in the seat, shaking so hard her bones seemed to

    Harlan's POVI had just arrived at the top floor to return the surgical instruments I had borrowed earlier when I heard shouting coming from the VIP wing. The noise was loud enough to draw a small crowd.As a doctor, my instincts made me unconsciously quicken my pace.Peeking into one of the rooms, I stopped cold.Aria? What the hell was she doing here? And why did she look so… broken?She was curled up in a corner, wearing a hospital gown, pale and trembling, her eyes wide with terror."What happened?" I whispered to one of the nearby nurses."She had an episode," the nurse replied in a hushed voice. "Tried to hurt herself with a knife—""She slammed into the wall..."Their fragmented explanations made my stomach turn.I'd known Aria for years. She was always composed, tough, resilient—never the type to crumble, no matter how hard life hit her.So what the hell pushed her to this?I couldn't ignore it. I wouldn't."I'm going in."Ignoring the protests behind me, I pushed the door ope

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   Breakdown

    Aria's POVThe instant the needle pierced my skin, my eyes flew open.Blinding white light flooded my vision, and the sharp scent of antiseptic filled my nose.My whole body felt limp, like someone had drained every last ounce of strength from me—but oddly, I didn't feel quite as awful as yesterday."Good morning, Aria—"A nurse's overly sweet voice chirped beside me.I turned my head slightly to look at her. She was inserting the IV, lips still moving, but I couldn't make out her words. I didn't have the energy to care.I closed my eyes again, waited for the fog in my mind to clear a bit, then finally croaked, "Water."She moved quickly, pouring some into a cup and gently lifting it to my lips.The warm liquid slid down my throat, and for the first time in what felt like forever, I felt... human again.I leaned back against the pillow, eyes shut, letting the warmth settle. But my thoughts were anything but calm.The memories from last night came rushing back—fragmented, chaotic, like

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye   Unconsciousness

    Kane's POV"What did you just say?" I growled through clenched teeth, my jaw tight, chest rising and falling in sharp bursts.She lay there, weak and barely conscious, but her lips still moved—murmuring that name—Chad.A flash of red clouded my vision. I grabbed her chin with one hand, forcing her face toward me."Look at me!" I barked. "Look at who's holding you now!""Get away…" she whispered.Even now, barely hanging on, she still resisted. I tightened my grip, watching the pain flicker across her face—and god help me, I felt a sick sense of satisfaction.Because in this moment, she was finally looking at me.Only me.That useless cop? He was nothing.A gnat I could crush without a second thought.So why the hell was he still on her mind? What made him worthy of her desperate cries for help?"He can't save you!" I snarled, losing control. "I could have him dead RIGHT NOW! Right in front of you!"I wanted to see her break. Scream. Cry. Beg me for mercy—for him. Anything that would p

    Kane's POV"Boss." The guards straightened when they saw me."Leave." My voice was ice.They stepped aside. I threw the door open.The room was dark, the only light a faint glow from the bedside lamp. The air inside was heavy, suffocating.It took me a moment to even find her.She was curled up on the bed, still and small, barely more than a shadow in the dim light.At first glance, I thought it was just a crumpled blanket.I leaned against the wall, breathing hard, staring at her. Her face was half-buried in the pillow, hair fanned out in a dark halo.Beautiful.And it only pissed me off more.I'd been pacing like a caged animal, drinking myself into a stupor, tormented by everything she'd done—while she just slept?I wasn’t in love with her. I just couldn’t stand her indifference—the way she acted like I meant nothing.The thought sent another wave of anger crashing through me. I grabbed the edge of the blanket and yanked.She stirred, her body tensing as the cold air hit her skin—a

  • The Billionaire Regret After My Goodbye    ONLY MINE

    Aria's POVDawn had barely broken, and I was still curled up on the cold, marble floor, shivering as if the chill had seeped into my bones.Every part of me ached, the pain a constant, searing reminder of what had happened."Mmgh…"I tried to make a sound, but the cloth stuffed in my mouth soaked up every noise. My wrists were raw from the belt, but after struggling for what felt like hours, I finally managed to wriggle free.The welts on my back burned like they'd been branded with a red-hot iron. Every breath, every movement pulled at the wounds.Kane hadn't held back. Those lashes… they were meant to hurt.To this day, I still don't know what I did wrong to make him so angry.The way he'd inspected my body so obsessively, the fury in his eyes when he heard Chad's name…The memories replayed in my mind like a cruel movie.If I were just a toy to him, why did he care so much?Our arrangement was always just physical.He'd said it himself, more than once—compared me to a whore, remind

    Aria's POVSmack!My palm struck his wrist so hard it echoed through the room. A red handprint bloomed across his skin—but his expression didn't even flinch."Finished your inspection yet?" My voice was raw, unrecognizable even to myself. "Or do you need a blood sample? DNA test?"I hated him.Hated myself even more for walking into ATTA's lobby that day, for ever signing that damned contract.If I had gone to someone else…No. There's no if anymore. I was the moth that dove straight into the spider's web—and every struggle only bound me tighter.Kane laughed then—a low, slow sound that made my skin crawl.That smile… it wasn't human. It was the smile of a predator toying with prey."Clean," he murmured, his fingers grazing my chin like ice. "Remember—so long as I want you, you belong to me."And then—without warning—he tossed me over his shoulder like a sack of grain.His shoulder dug into my ribs, every breath crushed out of me. I beat against his back, kicked, screamed.Nothing."P
