But then...

“You were part of this family!” he barked, his composure cracking over and over as he tried to rein in his impulse. “You lived under our roof—”

“As what?” she fired back instantly.

That question hung in the air like a blade, making Aaron falter. She was right. How was she under their roof?

Elara’s lips curved into something bitter. “Say it,” she challenged. “Go on, don't keep me in suspense.”

Aaron said nothing. Because he couldn’t. There was no true answer to her question.

    But then...“You were part of this family!” he barked, his composure cracking over and over as he tried to rein in his impulse. “You lived under our roof—”“As what?” she fired back instantly.That question hung in the air like a blade, making Aaron falter. She was right. How was she under their roof?Elara’s lips curved into something bitter. “Say it,” she challenged. “Go on, don't keep me in suspense.”Aaron said nothing. Because he couldn’t. There was no true answer to her question. “Exactly,” Elara said.Her gaze shifted briefly, sweeping over the others... the so-called family she once belonged to.“I was never your daughter,” she continued, her voice quieter now but filled with something far more cutting than anger. “I was the adopted one. The extra. The one you tolerated until your real daughter came back.”Evelyn stiffened and her eyes instantly shifted towards Lucian. Marjorie’s lips parted. “Elara, that’s not...”“Don’t,” Elara snapped, her eyes flashing. “Don’t you dare t

  • The Bride They Sacrificed: Reborn To Love And Kill   I Was Never Yours

    Aaron’s jaw tightened, the muscles ticking visibly as he took a step forward, his eyes locked on Lucian like a man itching for a fight he wasn’t sure he could win, but too prideful to walk away from. “You think you can just sit there and...” Lucian didn’t even look at him. Not even once. He was done talking to a wall. Heck! The reason he allowed them into the room was so that he could warn them to stay away from us inve and for all. He remained seated on the edge of the hospital bed, his posture relaxed, one hand gently wrapped around Elara’s, his thumb brushing slow, soothing circles over her skin like the Vaughns and Aaron’s presence didn’t exist, like his voice was nothing more than background noise. It wasn’t just dismissive. It was humiliating. And they deserved it. Naahh... they deserved more than that. Aaron’s voice rose, sharper this time, laced with frustration. “I’m talking to you!” Still nothing. Lucian’s attention never shifted. If anything, his grip on Elara’s hand

    “You don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said finally, quieter now, but no less strained. “You think you can just walk in and understand everything? You think you know her better than I do? I grew up with her! I've been with her throughout her life! You are just a stranger.” Lucian’s expression didn’t change. It was as if whatever that Aaron did couldn't get to him. “I don’t need to know her better than you did,” he replied. Another step forward. Now there was barely any space left between them. “I just need to know that I would never treat her the way you did.” That... That hit. Not like a blow. Like a truth Aaron couldn’t dodge. “You don’t know what I did,” he said, but his voice had dropped, lost its earlier force, like even he wasn’t entirely convinced anymore. Lucian tilted his head slightly, studying him, not with anger, not with hatred, but with something far more cutting. Like... Aaron was a nobody. “I know enough.” He said. Aaron’s hands curled into fists, his

    The silence didn’t break when Lucian turned away. If anything, it deepened and tightened, as a noose pulled one inch closer without warning. Aaron felt it before he fully understood it. That terrifying, irreversible shift. Because Lucian walking away wasn’t dismissal. It was a judgment already passed. It was the kind of quiet that came after a verdict, when the sentence had already been decided and there was nothing left to argue, nothing left to salvage, just the slow, suffocating realization that whatever came next would not be negotiated. Aaron’s fingers twitched against the floor, nails scraping faintly against the surface as he struggled to push himself upright, but his strength betrayed him. His body refused to cooperate, as it had finally caught up with the truth his mind was still trying to outrun. “No...no, you don’t get just to walk away,” he choked out, the words raw and uneven, filled with something close to desperation. Lucian didn’t even stop to give him a glance

    The silence that followed was deafening. No... this was the kind that came before something worse, something inevitable, something irreversible.It felt heavy, almost suffocating, like it was pressing down on everyone at once. It was hard to breathe, hard to think, as if even the smallest movement might break something fragile and dangerous.No one moved or spoke. Because the man standing there had just made one thing painfully clear... there was a line, and he had drawn it himself. And everyone in that room knew, without a doubt, that crossing it would come with consequences.Lucian stepped a few steps away from Aaron Close enough that his presence dominated the space entirely, far too close for Aaron to pretend there was any escape left to him. Aaron remained on the floor, his palm pressed weakly against the cold surface beneath him as though it were the only thing anchoring him to reality, his fingers trembling despite his effort to steady them. His mind lagged behind the mom

  • The Bride They Sacrificed: Reborn To Love And Kill   You Shouldn't Have Touched Her

    Panic flickered across Marjorie’s face as she stepped forward, sharply ordering him to stop, while Ethan’s voice dropped into a furious hiss, warning that if he ruined this, they would lose everything tied to the Hale family. "Aaron! Are you crazy?! Is this what we discussed about? Quickly, let her go, you idiot!" Ethan was furious. He needed this opportunity to finally get his company back on track. But now, his stupid son was going to ruin all his plans. Just why did he give birth to such a useless son?! Marjorie had always doted on Aaron. But if her son tried to sabotage her future wealth, she wouldn't mind throwing him out of the hospital window. Even Evelyn’s carefully maintained composure cracked, her anger flashing openly as she glared at her brother, silently cursing his recklessness, but none of it reached him. Aaron wasn’t listening. He wasn’t thinking. His entire world had narrowed into a single, obsessive point: Elara. And for Elara, the situation spiraled in

    Lucian and Elara got into his car. The outside world disappeared in that moment for Elara. The café... The whispers... The stares... Adrian’s unsettling gaze... Aaron’s infuriating taunt... All of it vanished behind closed doors and tinted glass, leaving only the two of them, and ever

    The moment Aaron’s voice disappeared beyond the café doors, swallowed by the noise of the street and the distant hum of passing cars, Elara finally exhaled. Her shoulders sagged just a fraction, but it felt like the weight of the entire world sliding off her spine. The adrenaline that had surged t

    Felt the tension coil in his body like a restrained beast clawing for release. Her panic surged. She turned to look at Lucian, and the sight of him stole the breath from her lungs. His eyes were dark. Not just angry. But dangerous. He stood perfectly still, but it was the stillness of a predator

    Elara stood over Serenity. Her breathing was steady, too steady for someone who had just struck another human being... A teenager at best. It wasn’t the breath of someone acting on impulse. It was the controlled inhale of someone who had reached the end of their patience long before their hand ev
