Just then, the housekeeper waltzed in, holding a pen and a book. Her brow shot up as she eyed her and her pyjamas.

"What are you doing here dressed like that?"

Ella looked at herself once again and felt her ears burn with embarrassment. Good thing her hair was worn down.

"Where's Mr. Chase?"

"You can cut the act now, Ella. Mr. Chase has told us the truth about your relationship." The woman stepped in closer, her eyes flaring into Ella’s as she looked up at her. She was an inch shorter and that

    They rounded the corner toward the alley between two buildings. He was leading her around the back of the hotel.She spoke again, trying to sound calm. "I came for Katrina. I didn’t tell anyone. Chase doesn’t know. No one knows."Still no response.They were halfway into the alley when the crack of a gunshot split the silence.Ella screamed, ducking instinctively as the Corp spun around. Another shot. The man stumbled back, dropping his gun."Ella!" a voice shouted.She turned toward it and her heart nearly gave out. Standing in the dark was Romano raising a gun with his face set. Behind him, Ethan stepped into view, walking fast as if he was expecting a moment like this. He lifted his own weapon and fired one more shot, this one grazing the Corp’s shoulder.The man hit the wall and slid down, groaning.Ella just stood there, eyes wide, body locked.Romano ran toward her first, hands out. "You okay?"She nodded shakily, breathless. "How did you find me?"Romano glanced at Ethan. "You

    Ella could still feel the weight of the phone in her hand. She could remember the exact tone of Santiago’s voice and how terrifyingly confident it was. He had plans but she had no idea what plans they were.Come to The Galleon Hotel. Suite 509. Come kill Katrina for me.She hadn’t breathed since that call ended.Her legs moved on their own, almost stumbling as she stepped back into the center of the beach house chaos. Romano was on a call. Ethan’s men were shouting coordinates. Chase stood in the middle, snapping into full command mode. He hadn’t noticed her yet until she spoke."I need to get somewhere."Everything stopped. Like someone had slammed their palm down on a remote and hit pause.Chase's head turned so fast you’d think she’d slapped him."What?" he said sharply.Ella’s eyes scanned the room quickly, her throat dry. "I just— I need to get somewhere. It’s personal if you don't mind."His eyes narrowed. "We’re in the middle of a kidnapping, Ella. What could possibly be more i

    Katrina hit the floor hard as she was shoved.Her knees scraped the concrete, the air knocked out of her lungs as Santiago’s hand finally let go of her collar. She gasped, scrambling back, but it was too dark to see where to run and too late to fight. His boot landed beside her with a thud, then another. His laugh echoed through the warehouse, loud and sinister, bouncing off the rusted beams like contorted waves."Do you always act so rude to everybody? No wonder Chase left your useless ass," Santiago said, pacing around her slowly. "Now look at you. At my mercy already.""Go to hell," she spat, wiping blood from her lip.He crouched in front of her, eyes gleaming. "Already there, sweetheart. I'm here to take you with me."She launched at him, or at least tried to but he caught her easily, fingers curling into her hair as he yanked her head back, making her cry out."Didn’t you enjoy yourself the other night?" he hissed, fingers trailing her pulse that was thumping in her neck. "You l

    The ride was quiet for exactly thirty seconds before Veronica broke the silence."You’re very quiet," Veronica said, adjusting her sunglasses. "You must be thinking. Good. I like women who think before they leap into fire. And our family burns you to crisp if you're not smart."Ella said nothing. Her nails dug into her palm, eyes glued to the road."But I do hope," Veronica continued, voice light but belied by a more sinister intent, "that you’re not letting emotions cloud your sense. You’re young, pretty and married to a man like Chase Connor. That’s not something women like us should waste."Ella looked over, confused.Veronica smiled at her like a lioness humoring a cub. "Don't act confused. Love is such a… reckless little thing, isn’t it? If I were you, I’d play smarter. Get pregnant. Divorce him. Take half. Then terminate the pregnancy."Ella’s heart skipped. The audacity to spit such venom disguised as advice."You think I’m joking?" Veronica added when Ella remained silent. "I

    he small villa on the outskirts of Venice was too quiet for Santiago’s taste. He lit a cigarette as he leaned against the hood of his matte black car, the smoke curling around his head like a halo of hell. The moment he saw Katrina walking toward him, heels clicking against the gravel, he straightened.She looked irritated, again."What do you mean he left?" Santiago barked before she could even greet him.Katrina rolled her eyes, arms crossed over her chest. "What part of ‘he went back to Chicago’ don’t you understand?""You told me the contract was the key," he said, stepping toward her. "That once he lost it, he’d be stuck here. That we’d have time."Her brows shot up. "We? You mean you would have time to blow up everything and drag Chase’s name through the mud?" Her voice rose. "I didn’t agree to that. You promised me power. I didn’t sign up for murder and media massacres."Santiago’s lips curved into a cold smile. "And yet, you were supposed to benefit from it, weren’t you?"Katr

    The hum of the private jet filled the cabin, but it wasn’t loud enough to drown out the tension hanging between them like steel. Chase hadn’t said a word since they took off. He sat across from her, one leg crossed over the other, a glass of untouched bourbon in his hand, eyes fixed out the window like the clouds had something dancing between them.Ella’s fingers gripped the armrest. Her palms were damp, heart pounding like a damn drum. She had to tell him. At least this one thing. He deserved to know before he found out some other way and turned into something worse than he already was.She swallowed hard. "Chase…"He didn’t respond. His jaw moved slightly, like he was clenching his teeth."I need to tell you something," she continued, her voice softer now. "Before we land."His head slowly lifted, eyes locking onto hers. His cold hard stare cut through her like glass.She forced herself to hold it. "Ethan texted me a sometimes back. He said he wanted to know about your trip... for s
