“This is no coincidence,” I muttered, turning to Alec. “The short-circuited coffee maker, the noise in the foyer, and the hands pushing her down the stairs.”

“You think someone is trying to hurt, Ruth?”

“Yes. And the first person that comes to my mind is Angelina. Seeing that she couldn’t hurt me, she decided to go after my friend.”

Alec's jaw clenched. He started towards the door, but I held his hand.

“Where are you going?”

“I'm going after Angelina.”

“No, Alec.” I tightened my grip an

    —Eloise—I slowly opened my eyes to the morning light as memories of last night came rushing back. I rolled onto my back, not wanting to leave the bed.Caleb.His face. His voice. The way he'd looked at me after all these years, as though seeing me again hadn't stirred something in him.Seven years, and somehow, one night had been enough to make me feel everything I thought I'd buried.Groaning, I swung my legs over the side of the bed and made my way to the dresser. I was still wearing my party clothes and shoes. After arriving home late, I'd simply removed my jewelry before collapsing onto the bed.I stared at my reflection for a moment before kicking off my shoes and reaching for the zipper of my dress. The fabric pooled around my feet, and my gaze landed on the stupid matching tattoo Caleb and I had gotten together a few months before he embarrassed me in front of everyone.It was a small crescent moon intertwined with a star, inked just below my hip. He'd said the moon and star b

    —Caleb—I hadn't expected seeing Eloise would affect me.The moment I stepped into the hall and our eyes met, every memory I'd spent years trying to bury came rushing back.She looked different. Stronger. Guarded. More beautiful.And she still had the same effect on me.I looked away because pretending she didn't exist was easier than facing what I'd done.But when she walked to the bar, my attention followed her.Excusing myself from the group I was with, I made my way to her.I'd wanted to talk to her tonight, to explain what happened back then, but she told me tonight wasn't the night.So I didn't argue.I walked away and tried to lose myself in another glass of champagne, watching her over the rim of my glass as she left the party.Damian approached me.“Coming with us?”“To where?”“The casino.”I frowned. “Why?”He chuckled, slapping my shoulder. “Come on. Would you rather go to a strip club?”Damian was the last person I should trust.Still, I followed him.We stepped through t

    —Eloise—The world seemed to blur around me until all I could hear was the frantic pounding of my heart.Caleb Holt.My first love. The boy who had broken my heart. The stranger I had spent seven years trying to forget.He crossed the courtyard with the same steady confidence I remembered, one hand tucked into his pocket as he approached the entrance.The helicopter disappeared into the night behind him.“Who is that?”“Isn't that Caleb Holt?”A few faces turned toward me.My fingers tightened around the glass.“I heard Forbes named him one of the most influential businessmen in America last month,” a voice nearby said.The doors opened and Caleb stepped into the hall. Almost immediately, people gathered around him.Caleb handled each greeting with an easy smile, remembering names, shaking hands, and accepting congratulations.His gaze swept across the crowd and found mine.For years, I'd imagined what it would feel like to see him again. I had imagined anger. Indifference. Maybe even

    —Eloise—“Are you sure about this?” Caleb asked, searching my eyes in the dark. “Do you really want me to be your first?”I gave a hesitant nod before wrapping my arms around his neck.What could go wrong?He was my first love.Caleb Holt.So what if he was the school gardener’s son and I, the daughter of a billionaire?I loved him and wanted him to be my first. We were both eighteen, high-school seniors, and tonight was Prom night. In a few weeks, we'd be heading to different states to further our studies.He had chosen Reens College in Atlanta.And I would be joining Harvard University.We were at the greenhouse. The music from the Prom was barely audible, drowned out by the quiet hum of the ventilation system.Moonlight spilled through the glass panels, casting faint shadows across the rows of plants.Caleb held my gaze for a moment before reaching for the hem of his shirt.He slowly pulled it over his head and tossed it aside, his eyes never leaving mine.My breath caught as I too

    —Amira—One Month Later...The rumor of my wedding spread faster than fire.Amira Nwosu was getting married today—to an Oyibo man.By morning, it was everywhere.Maybe if the president of the nation and the governor of my state hadn’t confirmed their attendance, it would have stayed within the village.But now?Every news outlet, every blog... everyone was talking about it.The road leading to my village was packed.And above us, helicopters cut through the sky—flying in and out— as if it was some kind of state event.Inside my family house, the women added the finishing touches to my outfit. When I glanced at the mirror again, I couldn't recognize the maiden staring back at me.For my big day—I was stepping out in a beautifully tailored lace blouse and two George wrappers— one tied over the other for a layered effect. My headgear was a gele tied into an intricate style, matching the designs of my hand fan and purse.Nate's mother, this morning, had gifted me a diamond necklace and wr

    —Amira—Anxiety swept through me as I paced the hallway, restless. If there was anything I hated in my life... it was surprises.They always have a way of messing with my mind.“Madam?” His butler came rushing toward me. “Sir is here.”A slow smile spread on my lips. I hurried to the stairs, in time as he walked in, looking impeccable.He froze.I caught the way his breath quickened, his eyes raking all over me with the same hunger I'd seen in them last night.He gasped—twice.“God… look at you.” He stepped closer. “You’re doing something to me right now.”“Are you sure?”I grabbed the hem of my dress and slowly descended the stairs until I was a breath away. He offered me his hand, and I took it, gently guiding me to his side.“You have no idea what you do to me.”Together, we stared at our reflections in the vanity.His tuxedo, black, beautifully contrasted against my forest green dress. He kissed my cheek. “You look gorgeous.”“You don't look bad yourself,” I murmured.We shared a
