His lips parted slightly as if caught off guard by my words. “Are you s-sure?” he asked, his voice low and raspy restraining the emotions swirling within. Despite the husky edge to his tone, I could feel the concern woven into it. My God. I know he’s a ruthless man in the eyes of many, a monster in the criminal underworld. But as I gaze at him now, the man before me… I can clearly see the worry etched across his face. A ruthless man, yet so tender when it comes to me. I bit my lip and gave a gentle nod. At my response, I saw his eyes slowly light up, and I couldn’t hold back the smile that curved my lips. In a swift motion, he bound my hands with his necktie, and with effortless strength, he guided me onto the bed, settling me onto his lap. He slipped his head between my arms, letting the warmth of my body envelop him. “You sure you’re willing to do everything I want, honey?” he asked again, a roguish grin playing on his lips. A soft nod was my only reply. I knew he’d rel
When they finally disappeared from view, I felt a heavy weight press down on my chest as I watched them slowly fade into the distance. Once they were completely out of sight, I let out a deep sigh and turned back toward the cabin. As soon as I stepped inside, I shut the door behind me and leaned against it for a moment. It was as if all my strength had drained from my body. I walked over to the bed, nearly collapsing onto it from where I stood. I sat down slowly, pulled my legs up, and wrapped my arms around my knees. The room was silent, only the sound of my heavy breathing filled the space. And there… I finally broke. The tears fell again—hard, relentless, like a long-awaited downpour finally unleashed from the sky. All the memories came rushing back—everything the four of us had been through. The pain of every wound the past had carved into us, the sacrifices we made for love, the lies that wedged themselves between us, the betrayal that nearly shattered all trust, the anger th
I was momentarily stunned when Irene suddenly followed after the father and daughter, carrying an umbrella. The air was heavy and humid, even without the sun. But before she could reach them, her eyes landed on me. She stopped in her tracks. Our eyes met. At that very moment, Marcus noticed me too. What was once a joyful scene of a family playing by the shore turned into something else—both of them were now looking straight at me. I didn’t hesitate to walk closer. There were only about three meters between us when I smiled. “Hi! How are you?” I greeted, glancing at the little girl Marcus was carrying. She was beautiful—a perfect blend of Marcus and Irene’s features. “How old is she?” I asked Marcus. “Two years old,” he replied in a calm voice. I nodded in response. I turned to Irene again, but she couldn’t meet my gaze. “Don’t you miss acting, Feurene?” I asked her.
