Chapter 26

Ethan felt as though his brain was wrapped in barbed wire.

Every time his heart beat, a dull, throbbing agony radiated from the base of his skull. But beneath the pain, there was something else.

A profound, terrifying silence. The heavy fog that had clouded his mind for five years the fog he had always assumed was just his baseline reality was lifting.

And in its place was a blistering, white-hot rage. "Ethan, darling, please," Chloe stammered, rushing into the room.

  • The Billionaire's Forgotten Bride    The Wolf and the Cub

    Chapter 204Midnight. Aegis Global Subterranean Command Center.The bunker was silent, save for the low, rhythmic hum of the quantum servers.Aria was finally asleep in the fortified living quarters, exhausted from crying. Zara was sitting by her bedside, refusing to leave her daughter’s side, a loaded pistol resting on the nightstand beside her.In the main command center, Ethan sat at the monolithic obsidian desk. He had discarded his suit jacket and tie, the sleeves of his crisp white shirt rolled up to reveal his heavily corded forearms. He was staring at six holographic monitors, his gray eyes tracking thousands of lines of code as his fingers flew across the keyboard.He was hunting.He was tracking the digital signature of the phone call Elara Vane had made. It was a labyrinth of ghost servers and encrypted proxies, designed to frustrate any intelligence agency in the world.But Ethan Cole was not an agency. He was a force of nature."You’re attacking the firewall from the wron

  • The Billionaire's Forgotten Bride    The Nanny’s Secret

    Chapter 203The underground bunker beneath Frost Manor had been heavily upgraded over the last five years. It was no longer just a safe room; it was a subterranean fortress equipped with a state-of-the-art medical wing, an independent armory, and a command center that rivaled the Pentagon.Zara paced the length of the command center, her emerald heels clicking sharply against the polished concrete floor.Marcus was at the main console, directing the Aegis bomb squad as they swept the penthouse topside. Ethan stood beside him, his massive arms crossed, his gaze fixed on the live body-cam feeds of the tactical team."Living room clear," the squad leader’s voice crackled over the radio. "Master bedroom clear. No explosives detected.""Check the ventilation shafts," Ethan ordered sharply, his voice leaving no room for error. "The Vane Syndicate utilizes micro-drone explosives. Look for anything the size of a coin."Zara paused her pacing, looking toward the reinforced glass doors of the a

    Chapter 202The name hung in the air like a curse.Her father.Elias Frost had always told Zara that her biological father was a nameless, faceless drifter. A man who had broken her mother’s heart and vanished into the wind. But after the war with Silas, Zara had learned that her grandfather’s history was a labyrinth of lies.If this masked figure possessed her father’s blood-stained crest, it meant the shadow war of the Frost Dynasty hadn't ended five years ago. It had only been asleep.The heavy oak doors of the office burst open. Marcus stormed in, an assault rifle already raised, followed by a six-man tactical team."Boss! We lost internal comms for sixty seconds!" Marcus shouted, his eyes scanning the room for threats. "Are you hit?""We’re fine," Ethan barked, his body still rigidly positioned between his family and the door. "Lock down the building. No one enters, no one leaves. I want a full trace on the IP address that hijacked my monitors. Now!""Daddy?"Aria tugged on Ethan

  • The Billionaire's Forgotten Bride    The Empire of Ice and Steel

    Chapter 201Five Years Later.The world did not just fear Zara Frost and Ethan Cole. It bowed to them.Over the last five years, the merger of Frost Industries and Cole Corporation had birthed a monolithic entity Aegis Global. They controlled fifty percent of the world’s quantum computing, dominated global logistics, and held the strings of international banking. They were untouchable. A king and queen sitting on a throne of ice and steel.But inside the soundproof, bulletproof, penthouse office of Aegis Global, the fearsome Ice Queen was currently losing a negotiation."Absolutely not," Zara said, crossing her arms over her impeccably tailored emerald-green blazer."But Mom," a small, infuriatingly logical voice countered.Sitting across the massive obsidian desk was ten-year-old Leo. He was no longer the small toddler clutching a stuffed wolf. He wore a crisp, miniature gray suit, his dark hair styled perfectly, looking like a terrifying carbon copy of his father."My proposal is en

  • The Billionaire's Forgotten Bride    The True Vows

    Chapter 200Six Months LaterThe sun was setting over the Amalfi Coast, casting a brilliant, golden glow over the sprawling terraces of the restored 16th-century villa.The air smelled of sea salt and crushed white roses.There were no press. No board members. No politicians.The only people seated on the pristine white chairs overlooking the ocean were a handful of fiercely loyal friends, Marcus and his security team (who were currently wiping away tears), and a highly exclusive string quartet playing a soft, beautiful melody.Standing at the altar, beneath an archway of woven ivy and white lilies, was Ethan Cole.He was breathtaking. He wore a razor-sharp, bespoke midnight-blue tuxedo that perfectly accentuated his broad shoulders. But the most magnificent thing about him wasn't the suit, or the arrogant, devastatingly handsome smirk on his face.It was the fact that he was standing on his own two feet.The neurotoxin had been neutralized, and after six grueling, agonizing months of

  • The Billionaire's Forgotten Bride    The Viper in the Nest

    Chapter 199The silence in the ICU was absolute, broken only by the steady, rhythmic beep of the heart monitors.Zara didn’t move. Her heart hammered wildly against her ribs, but her icy exterior remained flawlessly intact. She instinctively shifted her body to fully shield Leo, who was sitting frozen at the foot of the bed.Ethan, despite being paralyzed from the waist down, exuded a terrifying, lethal aura. He slowly pulled his hands away from the keyboard, his gray eyes locking onto Dr. Evans with the intensity of a sniper’s crosshairs."Julian Evans," Ethan stated, his voice completely devoid of panic. It was a cold, calculating purr. "Or should I say, Julian Frost? The illegitimate nephew of Silas. You were the one who planted the Syndicate in my life five years ago. You orchestrated the crash. You just used Arthur Sinclair as a puppet."Dr. Evans Julian offered a polite, chilling smile. "Very good, Ethan. You truly are a marvel of computation. Yes. The Frost family prefers to le
