LOGINLetty’s povAfter the call… I didn’t feel relief and I didn’t feel fear either.It was something else I was feeling.Certainty.It was something that was slow and unmoving and solid within me. For the first time since this had all started falling apart again, my mind was not jumping everywhere, I was not thinking ahead or behind my present moment.I was... Quiet, steady and certain.For the first time I knew what I had to do. I didn’t need to rush, I didn’t need to react and I couldn't let fear make me stupid.Rosa wasn’t stupid. She wasn't impulsive, Rosa was careful and she was strategic.If I made a wrong move...If I reacted without thinking...If I let anger take me over...If I let fear guide my actions...I would already be losing and I could not afford that, not now.I laid my hand on my stomach as my fingers rested gently there and then I inhaled.A quiet affirmation.I was not alone anymore.My choices...My actions...They weren’t just about me.I was protecting my Family an
Letty’s povThis vacation was meant to help, I thought the distance would stop the noise in my head.The fact that I would finally be away from the office, away from both the weight of Mason’s company and the weight of what was waiting for me… would give me room to finally breathe but there was no peace here either. No matter how quiet the apartment was or how peaceful the city felt at night or how close Mason was to me in bed.My mind wouldn't shut off, as soon as I closed my eyes, all I could see was…The office, the files, the signatures that shouldn't have been there. Her. Rosa.It was not just the idea of what she had taken from me but the realization that she had been doing it for so long.How careful she was and how close she had been… without me ever noticing.I turned on my side and looked up at the ceiling, the darkness stretched over me. Mason breathed in his sleep beside me. I was a fraction jealous of him but he was not really asleep, he was merely controlling whatever was
Letty’s povBy the time we arrived at the apartment Mason had arranged for us, the city had already begun to settle into the quiet rhythm of the night.The streets below were calmer now and the distant sounds of traffic had softened into a low, steady hum.Lights flickered in windows across nearby buildings, some warm and inviting, others distant and cold.It should have felt peaceful.It should have felt like a break from everything that had just happened.But my thoughts…My thoughts refused to quiet down.The apartment itself was beautiful in a way that felt almost effortless.It was luxurious, spacious and carefully designed with every piece of furniture placed with intention.Soft lighting filled the room, casting gentle shadows along the walls. The air smelled faintly of something clean and calming, like it had been prepared long before we ever arrived.Everything had already been taken care of.Everything had been made easy.It was the kind of place that should have made me feel
Mason’s povSilence filled the room and it was not the kind that brought peace and definitely not the kind that allowed your thoughts to settle or your breathing to steady.This silence was different.It was cold, sharp and heavy in a way that pressed against my chest and refused to let go.I stood there, staring at the documents spread across the desk, but the words no longer made sense.I checked the contracts, the signatures and the percentages, they were clear enough on paper.But what they meant…That was something else entirely.“She owns part of this?” I asked finally.My voice sounded steady, but it did not feel that way. It felt controlled, like I was forcing it to remain calm while something underneath it was slowly unraveling.Letty did not look at me right away. She simply nodded.Slowly.“She invested when I had nothing left,” she said quietly.Something in me tightened instantly and hard.Of course she did. That was exactly the kind of move Rosa would make.She would not
Letty’s pov“I didn’t tell you everything.”The words left my mouth slowly, each one heavy, as if I had to force them out. It was not just a confession. It was a truth I had buried deep inside myself for a long time, something I had convinced myself I could carry alone without ever letting it surface.Mason’s gaze sharpened immediately. His eyes locked onto mine, intense and searching, as if he could pull the rest of the truth out of me without waiting for me to speak.“What didn’t you tell me?” he asked.His voice was calm, but I could hear the tension beneath it. He already knew this was not something small, and that made it harder to say.I did not answer him right away.Instead, I turned to the woman who had greeted us earlier. My expression changed, becoming more focused, more certain, even though my chest felt tight.“Show me,” I said.She nodded without hesitation, as if she had been expecting this moment, and gestured for us to follow her.We walked down the hallway in silenc
Mason’s povThe moment we stepped inside the building, I noticed it immediately.This place was not ordinary.People moved with clear purpose, their steps steady and confident, as though each person knew exactly what they were doing and why it mattered. There was no chaos, no confusion, and no wasted movement anywhere around us.Everything had structure and everything had order.And more than that…There was respect.It was not the kind of respect that comes from fear amd it was not definitely the kind that is forced or demanded.But the kind that is built slowly over time and earned through consistency, sacrifice, and trust.I could feel it in the air the moment we walked in but I could also feel the moment as Letty stepped fully into the space.Everything shifted.At first, it was subtle, there was a pause in movement and a glance in her direction.A slight break in the rhythm of the room.Then it spread.Heads began to turn one after another as conversations slowed, then stopped com
Letty’s POVDays passed, slow and heavy, like the air before a storm that refused to break.Rosa’s eyes were everywhere.If she was not physically present, I felt her through the walls, through the way the maids suddenly paused when I walked past, through the way conversations softened or stopped t
Letty’s POVIt was finally the day of the big event.I woke up before dawn, my body already tired but my mind sharp and alert. My eyes opened even before the alarm rang. For a moment, I lay still, staring at the ceiling, listening to the quiet of the house. There were no footsteps, no voices. Just
I melted into him, my hands sliding up his chest to grip his shoulders as the kiss grew more passionate. With the waltz forgotten, our bodies moved instinctively, grinding against each other in the dim light of the unfinished gallery. His fingers tangled in my hair, tilting my head back to expose m
Letty’s POVThe atmosphere at the Wells mansion was changing, slowly but clearly.It was no longer just heavy.It was getting tense and thick.Like the air before a storm that everyone could feel but no one wanted to talk about.I had just ended a call with my assistant when I let out a long breath
