The Secret Billionaire Heiress Strikes Back Chapter 229
His parents had died when Rhys was still a teenager. A car accident, the papers had said. An accident. Rhys had never fully believed that word, and the not-believing had curdled in him for years, but believe it or not, they were gone, and they had left him alone — truly alone, no brothers, no sisters, no aunts or cousins that mattered, nothing. Just a boy in a black suit standing between two coffins, and then the seven years nobody talked about, the seven years Rhys never let himself think about in daylight.And out of those seven years, somehow, impossibly, had come a child.Rhys didn't know how. That was the ugly truth he had never told a living soul. There had been a time, in that place, when he'd been held down and made to drink something against his will, and the world after it came to him only in flashes — lights, a room, hands, nothing he could hold onto, nothing he could build into a story. He remembered almost none of it. He had spent years trying not

Chapter 228- Two HousesNight came down over the city the way it always did, indifferent and slow, pulling the light off the rooftops one street at a time. And under that ordinary darkness, in two different houses on two different sides of the city, two men put the wrong little boy to bed and never knew it.---**The Larsen House**The gates of the Larsen estate had not closed so fast in years.Phoenix drove through them hard, barely slowing, and the heavy iron swung shut behind the car with a clang that echoed off the stone of the big quiet house. Floodlights were already on. Two more of Rhys's men stood at the door, and two more at the corners of the grounds, because the call had gone out an hour ago and the whole machine had turned and locked exactly the way it was built to.*Someone tried to take Rhysian.*Those four words could move this household like nothing else on earth.Orion carried the boy inside. He hadn't let go of him once, not

Chapter 227It was in the car that the first small wrongness found a gap to slip through.Dante had carried the boy all the way back to the lot, refusing to set him down even though his shoulder howled with every step, and buckled him carefully into the back seat, and gotten himself behind the wheel with the specific slow care of a man whose body had just been pushed far past where it should have gone. He sat for a moment with his hands on the wheel, breathing, waiting for the shaking to pass enough that he could drive.He glanced in the mirror to check on R.And he frowned.Something was off. He couldn't place it at first. The boy was sitting very straight and very still in the back seat, hands folded in his lap, looking out the window. Fine. Safe. Right.But the clothes.Dante had dressed R himself that morning. He remembered it clearly, because R had complained about the collar — the white top, the one with the little buttons, and the br

Chapter 226— The Other BoyDante didn't stop looking.He couldn't. His body was begging him to stop — his ribs were a sheet of fire, his shoulder had gone past pain into something numb and wrong, and every breath felt like it was being dragged through broken glass. But a man doesn't stop looking for his child. There is no pain in the world big enough to make him stop. So Dante pushed through the churning market on legs that didn't want to hold him, one arm wrapped around his own middle, turning in circles, searching every gap, every face, every small moving shape."RAEL!" His voice was shredded now, raw from screaming. "RAEL! Where are you! RAEL!"The crowd was in chaos around him. Something had happened near the toy stalls, some commotion, people shouting and pointing toward the river path, a fruit stand knocked over, somebody saying the word *police*. Dante couldn't make sense of any of it. The whole world had narrowed down to one thing. Find him. F

Chapter 225R understood everything in about four seconds.He was good at understanding things quickly. He'd always been good at it. And so when the biggest man he had ever seen scooped him up out of the scary man's hands and held him tight against a chest like a wall, and said, in a voice rough with fear and relief, *"I've got you, I've got you, you're safe, I've got you"* — R understood.These were the uncles.Rhysian's uncles. Uncle P and Uncle O. The horse and the knight. R had seen them a dozen times from across the park, two big men who watched over his friend, his brother, the boy with his same face. He knew exactly who they were.And they thought he was Rhysian.He could see it in their faces, close up now for the first time. The one holding him — Uncle O, it had to be, the grumpy one, except he didn't look grumpy now, he looked like he might cry — kept touching R's cap, his shoulder, his back, checking him over, saying his b

Chapter 224R's face changed then. Dante saw it happen, saw the exact moment the boy understood this wasn't a normal grown-up doing a normal thing, saw the confusion crack open into fear. R's mouth opened. His legs kicked. He twisted in the man's grip and his cap slipped and his small voice cut through the market noise, high and thin and terrified."PAPA!""RAEL!"Dante was ten feet away. Eight. He could almost reach them. He threw himself the last of the distance——and someone stepped back out of the shifting crowd, a big man with a crate, not part of it, just an ordinary frightened person getting out of the way, and his shoulder caught Dante square in the chest.Dante went down.It wasn't even a hard hit. On any other day it would have been nothing, a bump, a stumble he'd have shrugged off without breaking stride. But his ribs were still cracked and his balance was still wrong and his body had already spent everything it had, and the
