Angela's POV

The moment I got into the car, I locked the doors. Only then did I finally let out the breath I’d been holding. My hands were shaking as I started the engine.

The drive home felt longer than usual. Every red light made my chest tighten. Every car that slowed down beside me sent my heart jumping. I was afraid Ian was following me. His voice kept echoing in my head.

Say no… and you’ll find out why that’s a bad idea.

  • The Broken Angel He Claimed   Knife Against My Throat

    Angela's POVI stared at the knife in his hand.The cold metal caught the rooftop lights every time he slowly turned it between his fingers.My throat tightened.But no words came out.Lyla’s manager looked at me for a few seconds before letting out a quiet chuckle.“No last words?” he murmured.Then he slowly nodded.“Alright.”He stepped closer.“I’ll make this quick,” he said calmly. “It won’t hurt too much.”Before I could react, he grabbed the duct tape again.My eyes widened instantly when he roughly slapped the tape back over my mouth.My body jerked hard against the chair.“There,” he said quietly.“This way, you’ll stay quiet for a while.”His hand pressed against the tape for a second to make sure it stayed firmly in place.“I promise it won’t hurt t

  • The Broken Angel He Claimed   She's Gone (Aaron's POV)

    Aaron's POV“I don’t need help to destroy her,” I said. “You’ve got the wrong guy.”My grip tightened on the steering wheel.“I don’t share. And I don’t like people touching what’s mine.”“You should be thanking me,” he shot back sharply. “I helped you get your revenge.”“I don’t need it. Now tell me, where is Angela?”A scoff came through the line. “You’re still thinking about her? You should be thinking about Lyla.”“Lyla is broken because of you,” he continued, his breathing heavy.A short, cold laugh left my mouth.“You think this is funny?” he snapped.“Does Lyla know what you did for her?” I said quietly. “You think she’s going to thank you… once she finds out everything?”“You don’t get to say that,&rdquo

  • The Broken Angel He Claimed   Doesn't Feel Right (Aaron's POV)

    Aaron’s POVThe engine was running, my eyes fixed on the road.Lyla sat beside me, letting out a sharp breath. “Seriously?” she muttered. “Aaron… can’t you at least pretend to be happy when you’re out with me?”I kept my gaze forward and said nothing.“You said you wanted to try with me. But all I see is this…” she gestured at me, annoyed. “That look like you’d rather be anywhere but here.”A pause.“Am I just… your rebound? So you can forget her?”I pulled the car over.Hard enough that the tires scraped slightly against the asphalt.Silence dropped between us.Then I turned and looked at her.“Enough, Lyla.”My voice was controlled.She froze.“I already told you,” I continued calmly. “I’m willing to try with you. But not the way you’re forcing it.”Her lips parted, but no words came out.“I still see you as a friend,” I said plainly. “That doesn’t change overnight just

  • The Broken Angel He Claimed   Someone Is Watching

    Angela’s POV“Did you see who that was?” Lyla asked when I got back to where we were earlier.“No,” I answered.She let out a sharp breath. “This is all your fault. If any bad news about me ends up in the media, anything at all, you’re going down with me.”I let out a quiet scoff and looked right back at her.“My fault?” I said. “You’re the one who came here, Lyla. No one dragged you into this.”Her expression immediately hardened. I kept my eyes on her, not looking away.“If you hadn’t shown up,” I continued, “You wouldn’t be dragged into my problems.”Her jaw tightened. Her eyes burned with anger. She looked like she wanted to tear me apart, then turned and stormed off.Her steps were sharp and full of emotion, as she left me standing there alone.Silence fell immediately after she was gone.I

  • The Broken Angel He Claimed   Caught in the Wrong Place

    Angela’s POVI turned and looked at her.“Lyla? What are you doing here?”She didn’t get the chance to answer before the restroom door opened and someone walked in. Without thinking, I quickly put my hat, mask, and sunglasses back on.Suddenly, Lyla grabbed my wrist.“We’re not talking here,” she said under her breath, almost a whisper. “Come on.”***She dragged me out of the restroom without waiting for my approval.Her grip was tight, her steps fast. I had no choice but to follow as she pulled me down the hallway.We stopped in a quieter side parking area. Only a few cars. Far enough from people.The moment we stopped, she let go of my hand roughly, making me stumble slightly backward.I stared at her, my breathing still uneven.Lyla stood straight in front of me, her arms crossed over her chest. Her gaze was sharp and judgemental, almost mocki
