Chapter 29 — The Shape of the Promise

**Riya**

The screen went black and the silence that followed felt heavier than the footsteps had.

I stayed pressed against Aryan’s chest, fingers still locked in the front of his shirt like someone might try to pry me off. The smell of him—gun oil, night air, the faint metallic edge of the docks—wrapped around me tighter than any blanket. My legs were still unsteady. Every time I closed my eyes I saw the flashlight beam stopping two feet from the wardrobe ga

  • The Mafia billionaire's Revenge Bride    Chapter 70: The Ghost Who Should Have Stayed Buried

    Chapter 70: The Ghost Who Should Have Stayed BuriedRiya’s POVThe name still hung in the air like gun smoke that refused to clear.Meera.I watched Aryan’s body lock in a way that had nothing to do with the bruised ribs or the rain still dripping off his black shirt. This was older. Deeper. The kind of stillness that said something he had buried under years of blood and black shirts had just walked back into the room carrying every scar he thought he’d already killed.She stood in the dim warehouse light like the shadows had always belonged to her. Mid-thirties, maybe a little older. Short rain-dark hair. Utility black that didn’t try to be anything except functional. No weapon visible. Hands empty and held slightly away from her body the same way Naina’s and Kavya’s had been. Same training. Same cold bastard who had taught all of them how to walk into a room full of guns and still look like they owned the concrete.Ananya’s rifle never left her center mass. “Identify again. Slowly.

    Chapter 69: The Ones Who Taught Him How to BleedRiya’s POVThe second phone kept ringing like it had all the fucking time in the world.I didn’t move. Neither did Aryan. His hands were still pressed against the pad on my side, fingers sticky with my blood, jaw locked so tight I could hear his teeth grind. The bruise along his ribs looked almost purple under the wet black fabric. Every shallow breath he took made something pull wrong under the skin. He felt it. I saw it. He just refused to give it room.Ananya’s voice cut through the rain from the doorway, low and flat. “Still alone out there. No second vehicle. No movement from the east lot. Whatever the fuck that message meant, they’re not announcing themselves yet.”“Keep the sweeps,” Aryan said without looking up. His voice had that dead quality again, the one that meant every soft thing inside him had been locked behind steel. “Anything bigger than a rat, put it down before it gets close enough to breathe on us.”She melted back i

  • The Mafia billionaire's Revenge Bride    Chapter 68: The Names That Still Breathe

    Chapter 68: The Names That Still Breathe**Riya’s POV**The phone kept ringing.Not loud. Not frantic. Just steady and patient, the way a blade is patient when it already knows the softest place to cut. One long tone after another against the scarred wood of the table while rain tried to erase the tire tracks outside and the three bodies on the concrete kept cooling like they had nowhere better to be.Aryan’s hands were still on me. One pressing the fresh pad hard against the wound in my side, the other tearing tape with his teeth. His mouth was a hard line. The bruise along his ribs looked almost black under the wet black fabric. Every time he reached, I saw the careful way he moved—like the ribs were reminding him they still belonged to someone who had been hit hard and recently.I didn’t reach for the phone.Neither did he.Ananya’s voice came low from the doorway, rifle still up, eyes still cutting the dark. “She’s gone. Single vehicle. No tail I can see. Rain’s thick enough to hid

  • The Mafia billionaire's Revenge Bride    Chapter 67: The Dead Don’t Knock Twice

    Chapter 67: The Dead Don’t Knock Twice**Riya’s POV**The third set of tires didn’t announce itself with the same soft, wet thump as the first two. It was quieter. More careful. Like the driver already knew the ground was soft with rain and blood and didn’t want to wake whatever still slept under it.Aryan’s hand left mine the second the sound reached us. He was already moving, already angling his body between me and the open side door, Glock low and ready. Ananya had frozen halfway across the room, rifle half-raised, eyes cutting toward the entrance.I stayed where I was. Sitting on the edge of the mattress with the fresh pad pressed hard against my side, the med kit open beside me, the taste of Aryan’s blood still ghosting the inside of my mouth from where I’d bitten him. The wound had opinions. I told it to shut the fuck up and keep the rest of the blood inside where it belonged.Outside, the engine cut.One door opened.One.Not six. Not four. One.Aryan’s shoulders didn’t relax. I

  • The Mafia billionaire's Revenge Bride    Chapter 66: The Ghost’s Bloody Fucking Teeth Just Bit the Wrong Pair of Bastards

    Chapter 66: The Ghost’s Bloody Fucking Teeth Just Bit the Wrong Pair of Bastards**Riya’s POV**The tires stopped like a held breath.Not a squeal. Not a dramatic slam. Just that soft, wet *thump-thump* of rubber kissing concrete that had already given up fighting the rain. Two vehicles. Lights off. East approach. Exactly where Ananya said they would be.Aryan’s body went from warm to weapon in the space between one heartbeat and the next. His hand left the bandage like it had never been gentle. One second he was still half-hard against my thigh, the next he was already rolling, already reaching, already becoming the thing the old network used to whisper about when the lights went out.I sat up slower. The fresh tape pulled. The wound protested. I told it to shut the fuck up and keep the blood inside where it belonged.Ananya’s voice crackled again, lower, tighter. “Two SUVs. Blacked out. No plates I can read from here. Four doors opening. Six bodies. Moving like they’ve done this befo

  • The Mafia billionaire's Revenge Bride    Chapter 65: The Ghost Still Has Teeth

    Chapter 65: The Ghost Still Has TeethRiya’s POVThe rain did not ease. It only changed its mind about how it wanted to kill the city. One minute it came in sheets that made the corrugated roof sound like a drumline of the damned. The next it turned into a steady, spiteful hiss that worked its way through every crack and dripped somewhere in the dark like a clock counting down how long we still had to live.Aryan’s hand stayed over the fresh bandage the entire time. Not gripping. Just resting there like the weight of his palm could convince the wound to behave. His thumb moved in the smallest circles against the edge of the tape. I could feel every careful pass of it. I could also feel the way his body stayed coiled even in the afterglow, every muscle still listening for the next thing that wanted to crawl out of the past and bite.I let the quiet stretch until it started to itch.“You’re doing that thing again,” I murmured against his throat.His voice came out low, still rough from e
