VICTORIA

The board dinner was supposed to be quiet. Just a small private gathering after the chaos of the last few weeks. No reporters and no cameras. Just the board, a few senior executives, and the usual polite conversations that pretended nothing in our world was burning.

The restaurant was one of those expensive places where the lights were soft and the tables were too far apart for anyone to overhear anything. The kind of place people chose when they wanted serious conversations without wi

    VICTORIAThe moment our lips met, everything else dropped away.The kiss wasn’t soft or careful or anything I could pretend was a mistake. It felt direct, like something that had been waiting for too long and finally broke through. I didn’t think, and that was the problem.Because I always thought.This time, I didn’t.The tension that had been sitting between us all night had turned into something real. It wasn’t gentle, it wasn’t slow, and it didn’t give me space to step back. It pulled me in instead.And I let it.That was my second mistake.His reaction came half a second later. There was a pause, just small enough for me to notice it. That small moment where he could have pulled away.He didn’t.Then just like that, the hesitation disappeared like it had never been there. His hand moved to my arm, firm but not rough, steady in a way that made everything feel more certain.What scared me. wasn’t the kiss or the closeness of our bodies. It was him. Because it meant he wasn’t holdin

    VICTORIAThe space between us disappeared too easily. That was the problem, and I knew it the second it happened. It had always been like this with him, simple in the worst way.Everything else around us felt complicated, messy, and out of control. The case, the lies, the past that kept showing up at the worst time. But this part, this thing between us, stayed easy.It felt too easy, and I didn’t like that. Because easy meant dangerous. It meant I wasn’t thinking. And right now, I needed to think.His hand brushed mine first, lightly. It wasn’t an accident, and we both knew it. It was just enough to feel, just enough to notice.I didn’t pull away. I should have. I knew I should have, but I didn’t.The contact stayed there for a second longer than it needed to. My fingers didn’t move or react, and it felt like they were waiting for my brain to catch up. It didn’t. Instead, I let it stay.That was my first mistake.“Tell me everything,” I said quietly.My voice came out softer than I ex

    VICTORIAThe moment the door closed behind us, the silence changed.It felt like everything we had just said outside had followed us in and settled into the walls.I stood there for a second, my hand still resting on the door handle, my mind trying to reset. The space looked the same. The lights were soft, the furniture was exactly where it had always been, and the city still stretched out through the glass.Nothing had moved, but something had shifted, and I could feel it.Clark walked past me like he had done it a hundred times before. He didn’t pause or hesitate. He just moved through the space as if he belonged there and nothing had changed.That annoyed me more than I wanted to admit.I let out a slow breath and pushed myself away from the door, walking deeper into the penthouse. I moved toward the desk and picked up my tablet, forcing my attention onto the screen. I had messages, reports, and legal updates waiting.All of it was important. This was what mattered.Not him. Not

    VICTORIAThe elevator ride down felt longer than it should have.No one spoke after we left the penthouse. Not me, not Clark, not even Daniel. The woman stayed behind, and somehow that made everything feel heavier, like we had walked out with pieces of something unfinished.I kept my eyes forward the whole time. I didn’t trust myself to look at Clark yet because if I did, I wasn’t sure what I would see. Or worse, what I would feel.We stepped out into the night, and the air hit me immediately. It was cool and sharp. It helped, but not enough.Clark walked beside me, close but not touching. I could feel his presence without looking. It sat there, steadily, like he was waiting for something.I didn’t give it to him.The car door opened, and I got in without a word. He followed right after, sitting beside me like it was normal and nothing had changed.But everything had.The driver pulled away smoothly, and the city lights started moving past the window. I watched them without really see

    VICTORIABut I didn’t end up stepping back.That was the first thing I noticed about myself in that moment. I stayed right there, close enough to feel the heat from his body, close enough to see every small shift in his expression.Clark didn’t move either.We just stood there, facing each other, with too many things sitting between us that neither of us wanted to say out loud.The room felt smaller. Tighter too. Like the walls had moved in just to watch what would happen next.“You knew what it could become,” I said again, softer this time.It wasn’t because I wasn’t sure. It was because I wanted to hear how he would say it again.His jaw tightened just slightly before he answered. “I knew what it was,” he repeated.That answer sat there for a second. Then I let out a small breath. “That’s not the same thing.”He didn’t reply immediately.And that silence… it did something to me. Because Clark wasn’t the kind of man who stayed quiet unless he was choosing to.And right now, he was c

    VICTORIA I didn’t take my eyes off him after I asked the question.The room felt quiet, but not peaceful. It was the kind of silence that pressed in on you, like it was waiting for something to break. Clark stood a few steps away, his face calm, but I knew him well enough now to see the tension underneath.It was in the way his shoulders held still. They were too still.He didn’t answer immediately. That told me more than anything else.I crossed my arms slowly, not to protect myself, but to keep control. “It’s a simple question,” I said. My voice stayed even. “Did you ever think about using it on me?”Clark let out a small breath, like he had been holding it in.“No,” he said.The answer came fast. Too fast.I tilted my head slightly, watching him. “That’s not true.”His jaw tightened just a little. “It is.”I took a step closer. “You didn’t even think about it?” I asked. “Not once?”He didn’t move.“I thought about a lot of things back then,” he said carefully. “That doesn’t mean I

    CLARKThe water didn’t rush in all at once. It crept in bit by bit.That was the worst part.It slid across the concrete floor slowly. The smell hit me first as the odor of old metal and river rot invaded my nostrils and burned the back of my throat.My boots were soaked within seconds.“Move,” I b

    VICTORIAThe secure location we went to smelled like disinfectant and burnt coffee. It was the kind of smell that was clean, but felt like it was hiding something rotten underneath. I hated it the moment I stepped in.Diana sat on the edge of the couch, wrapped in a thick gray blanket. Her knees we

    TRENTI didn’t plan to meet her.That was the first lie I told myself that night, and it actually sounded believable in my head for a moment.But the truth sat heavily in my chest while my car idled under the bridge, engine low, lights off, rain tapping against the roof.I should have driven away.

That alone told me how bad it was. Isabella never hid behind accessories unless she was tired or angry. Sometimes both.She shut the
