Elowen’s POV

The digital clock on the dark wall of the ninetieth-floor boardroom registered exactly two minutes to noon.

The air inside the high-altitude chamber was entirely still. It smelled faintly of dry paper and the bitter cedarwood of the wall paneling.

Outside the floor-to-ceiling glass, the winter sun was a cold, blinding disk. It offered no real warmth, throwing sharp, geometric angle

  • The Billionaire’s Blood Debt: Ruined by My Enemy   Chapter 202: You're a Drama King

    --- Elowen's POVFor a few seconds, I stood still in front of the sunrise painting, letting out a slow, quiet breath to steady the rapid beating of my heart.Then, gripping the silver handle of my mahogany cane, I turned around smoothly to face him."Hi," I said simply, keeping my voice calm and even.Killian stood just two paces behind me, towering in his tailored midnight-black tuxedo. In the soft glow of the gallery spotlights, his dark eyes swept over my face, taking in the emerald green gown, the loose strands of dark hair framing my cheeks, and the steady posture of my shoulders.Instead of answering my greeting right away, he leaned in just an inch, drawing a slow breath as a faint, warm smile touched the corner of his mouth."You smell so nice," he said softly, his voice low and smooth in the quiet hall.Heat inst

  • The Billionaire’s Blood Debt: Ruined by My Enemy   Chapter 201: You Didn't Tell Me You're Back

    --- Elowen's POVSaturday evening arrived with a crisp, clear winter sky over New York.Inside my quiet Brooklyn apartment, the atmosphere was calm and focused. After seeing Killian’s name listed as the Lead Patron on the gala invitation the morning before, I had spent a few quiet minutes deciding how I was going to handle the night. I wasn't going to hide at home, and I certainly wasn't going to let his presence stop me from taking a major step forward for my new business.I was there for Laurent & Associates. Nothing more, nothing less.By six o'clock, I stood in front of the full-length mirror in my bedroom, smoothing down the fabric of my dress. I had chosen a deep emerald green floor-length gown with long sleeves and a simple, graceful neckline. The rich color brought out the warmth in my skin and matched the pale amber shade of my eyes, while the structured cut of the

  • The Billionaire’s Blood Debt: Ruined by My Enemy   Chapter 200: The Two Wise Men

    --- Elowen's POVI sat up slightly against the pillows, looking at the glowing screen of my phone.The name Diego continued to flash in the center of the display, buzzing softly against the wooden surface of the nightstand. For a brief second, I hesitated, wondering if picking up the phone late at night was a good idea. But I knew that leaving it unanswered would only keep unsaid thoughts hanging in the air.I took a quiet breath, swiped the screen, and placed the phone to my ear."Hello?" I said softly into the receiver.There was a moment of complete silence on the line. I could hear the faint, uneven sound of his breathing over the phone before he finally spoke."Elowen?" Diego's voice came through, sounding hesitant, low, and visibly nervous. "I'm... I'm so sorry for calling you this late. I know it's past ten o'clock."

  • The Billionaire’s Blood Debt: Ruined by My Enemy   Chapter 199: Old Romance

    --- Elowen's POVFor some seconds, neither of us moved.The automatic glass doors of the gallery clicked shut behind Diego, cutting off the cold winter wind. The warm, quiet air of the exhibition room settled between us like a heavy blanket.I stood near the center of the polished stone floor, my right hand gripping the handle of my mahogany walking cane. My knuckles were pale against the dark wood, but I forced my posture to stay straight, my shoulders square, and my face completely neutral.Diego stood in the doorway, shaking a few stray snowflakes off the collar of his dark wool coat. He looked almost exactly the same as the last time I had seen him—dark hair neatly styled, sharp jacket, and the polished look of a man who cared deeply about how the world perceived him.When his eyes landed on me, his entire body went rigid.He blinke

  • The Billionaire’s Blood Debt: Ruined by My Enemy   Chapter 198: Look Who Showed Up

    --- Elowen's POVThree more weeks passed in Paris, bringing steady, quiet progress every single day.By early December, the cold winter air had fully settled over the city. Frost covered the high glass windows of the conservatory each morning, and the trees in the courtyard were completely bare. But inside the townhouse on Rue de l'Université, my life no longer revolved around a wheelchair.The transport chair was officially folded up and stored inside the hallway closet.With Marie’s constant guidance and strict daily exercises, my core and lower back muscles had grown strong enough to support my weight. My body felt grounded again. I no longer felt the terrifying sensation that my spine might give out beneath me. Dr. Navarro flew in from Spain for one final check-up, reviewing my digital scans and testing my leg reflexes before giving me his full approval.I still wore a lightweight, low-profile supportive brace under my clothes to protect my lower spine, and I relied on a sleek mah

  • The Billionaire’s Blood Debt: Ruined by My Enemy   Chapter 197: On My Own Terms

    --- Elowen's POVFour weeks passed in a steady, unhurried rhythm of discipline and quiet transformation.By mid-November, the damp autumn chill over Paris had deepened, turning the leaves along Rue de l'Université into dark bronze velvet beneath the grey sky. But inside number forty-two, the atmosphere was no longer defined by medical routines or cautious steps.The transport wheelchair sat folded in the corner of the entryway, covered by a light sheet. I hadn't sat in it for ten days."Three more steps, Elowen," Marie said, standing two paces ahead of me in the living room with her arms loosely opened, ready but no longer hovering. "Keep your hips level. Don't lean into your right side."I took a breath, letting it out slowly as I shifted my weight.My right foot moved forward, pressing firmly onto the polished parquet floor. Then my left. T
