Nadia's POV.

The chessboard sat between my father and me on the small table in his study, sunlight streaming through the tall windows as he studied his next move with deliberate patience.

"You're distracted." he said, not looking up from the board.

"I'm not," I said quickly, moving my knight without really thinking it through.

He glanced up at me over his glasses, one eyebrow raised. "Nadia, that was a terrible move."

"It was strategic."

"It was terrible." he repeated, chuckling as he capture

    Ronan's POV.I was still standing there in the hallway for a long moment since Nadia left, my hand still half raised from where I'd reached for her one last time, watching the empty space where she'd been standing seconds earlier."Daddy?"I turned to find Lily standing beside me, her small face pinched with confusion, her arms crossed over her chest in a way that reminded me little of her mother... as uncomfortable as that was. "Hey, sweetheart.""Why did Nadia leave?" she asked. "You just came back. She's supposed to be happy about that, stay and give you all the energy back, not just leave like that."I crouched down to her level, forcing something calm into my expression despite everything still churning underneath it. "She's just a little tired, that's all. She needed to go rest for a bit.""But you were gone all night," Lily said, clearly unconvinced. "She was really, really worried about you. I heard her on the phone earlier. Why would she leave now?""Grown up stuff, baby,

    Nadia's POV. Diego pulled up the driveway just as the sun properly broke over the trees, and I barely managed to thank him before climbing out, my legs unsteady beneath me, exhaustion pressing down harder now that the adrenaline of the night had finally worn off.I made it as far as the front steps before Eli appeared in the doorway, a grin already forming."There she is," he said. "So? How'd the big dinner go last night?"The grin died the second he actually looked at me."Nadia." He crossed the porch in a few quick strides, his hands finding my shoulders. "What happened?""Not here," I said, my voice cracking on the second word, and he didn't ask again, just guided me inside and up the stairs, one arm wrapped firmly around my shoulders the entire way.I sat on the edge of my bed once we reached my room, and the whole story came pouring out of me in a rush I couldn't have stopped even if I'd wanted to. The missed dinner, the frantic hours waiting, Bing, the trace, the hotel, the pho

    Simone's POV.I pulled into the driveway and killed the engine, staring at the dark windows of the mansion for a moment before I found the energy to actually get out. My phone buzzed against the passenger seat before I'd even reached for the door handle.A text from my goon leader I'd had keeping tabs on things.'She just left his place with her bodyguard. Looked like she'd been crying and left in a hurry.'I read it twice, a slow, satisfied smile spreading across my face despite the exhaustion sitting heavy in my bones. Nadia Holt, finally getting a taste of exactly what it felt like to have her perfect little life quietly unravel underneath her.It had taken careful work to get here.I'd reached out to Jolene again about a week earlier, casual, easy, the kind of invitation an old friend extends without any particular agenda attached. But I had my agenda. We met for lunch downtown, and I let the conversation drift naturally through old memories, mutual friends, the shape our lives h

    Chapter 132. Nadia's POV. "How convenient.." I said, the words coming out sharper than I intended, though I didn't take them back."Nadia, please.""Who is she?" I demanded. "Who is the woman in those photos, Ronan?"He hesitated, just long enough that my stomach twisted even harder."Jolene," he said finally, quietly.The name landed like a physical blow. "Your ex-wife?""Nothing happened," he said quickly, desperately. "I woke up this morning and I had no memory of anything, no idea how I even got there. She said she was just as confused as I was.""I really don't know if those photos are true," I said, my voice breaking now, tears streaming freely down my face. "But if they are, oh my god, Ronan, I am so hurt. So betrayed. I know I hurt you in the past. I know I betrayed your trust. I left you, I kissed someone else, I know all of that. But I never once did anything this extreme. Even when I was seeing Damian, I swear to you, I never slept with him. I was so conflicted about my

    Nadia's POV. The house had gone completely quiet by midnight, Lily long since asleep in her room, the television I'd tried watching earlier now dark and forgotten across the room. I sat curled on the couch, wrapped in a blanket I'd taken from the hall closet, my phone resting in my lap, hoping it would just light up with his name already.It didn't.I kept turning the whole evening over in my head, trying to make sense of it. This wasn't like him at all. Ronan missed things sometimes, got pulled into meetings that ran long, but he always called, always texted something, even a single line letting me know he was still breathing if possible. And this wasn't just about me. Lily was upstairs asleep, completely unaware her father hadn't come home from work, and if I hadn't been here, she would have been the one calling around confused, wondering why her dad had simply vanished on an ordinary Tuesday.Already around midnight, something about the whole situation had started sitting wrong in

    Damian's POV. The office had become a place I actively avoided lately, the quiet hallways emptier each week as more of my staff quietly handed in resignations, unwilling to stay attached to a name still bleeding out in every tabloid across the city. I hadn't gone in three days. There was nothing left there for me to fix for now at this point, not today, and staying home alone with my own thoughts had started feeling worse than useless.I decided to pick the kids up myself instead of leaving it to the driver.Lucas raised an eyebrow when he spotted me waiting outside the school gates. "You're picking us up?""I have time today," I said, which wasn't entirely a lie.We drove to a small ice cream shop a few blocks from the house, one they used to beg to visit constantly a few months back, and settled into a booth by the window, both kids ordering something absurdly large with three different toppings while I stuck to a plain cone, watching them dig in with the kind of enthusiasm I hadn'

    Nadia Pain was the first thing that returned to me, and not the darkness I had expected to remain in forever.My breathing was uneven, shallow at first, then deeper as if my body was reminding me of how to stay alive. I laid still, with my eyes closed, trying to understand why I could feel anythin

    NadiaI couldn’t believe the words had come out of my mouth. My heart pounded so loudly in my ears, that I thought it might burst out of my chest. My temples throbbed with the pressure, while my fingertips were numb with the tremors that wouldn’t stop. I stared at Damian’s back, still waiting fo
