Kayla gripped her phone with trembling fingers, her knuckles turning hardening The weight of everything—being kidnapped, nearly killed, watching Adrian bleed—had built up inside her like a tornado waiting to explode. And now, standing in Adrian’s hallway, she was ready to unleash it all on the one man who had chosen business over his own daughter.The phone rang. Once. Twice.Then her father’s voice came through, calm and unconcerned as always. "Kayla."She didn’t mince words. "Cut ties with Victor." Her voice was sharp, edged with restrained fury. "End every single business deal with him. I’m not asking—I’m telling you."A pause. Then a scoff. "Telling me?" Her father let out a dry chuckle. "You forget your place, Kayla."Her grip tightened. "My place? Do you have any fucking idea what I’ve just been through in the past few weeks? Victor kidnapped me. He tied me to a chair and held a gun to my head like I was nothing! And you want to talk about my place?"A heavy silence followed be

Victor leaned back against the leather chair in his dimly lit office, rotating his chair as his cold gaze fixed on Fiona. The lighting in the room isn't even helping matters. It makes everywhere look eerie.. He tapped his fingers rhythmically on the polished surface of his desk, the silence between them suffocating Fiona, she kept thinking why he must have summoned her in such a haste.. Fiona stood before him, her heart pounding, her hands clenched at her sides in fear."You will kill Kayla," Victor said, his voice disturbingly calm for the words he just uttered.Fiona's breath hitched. Her fingers curled into fists as her body tensed. "What?" she whispered, as if she had misheard.Victor leaned forward, a slow, menacing smirk playing on his lips. "I know You heard me, Fiona. If you don't do it, I'll kill you myself. And trust me, it won’t be quick or painless."Fiona felt her stomach drop. She had played dangerous games before, but this… this was beyond anything she had ever imagined

Ethan tightened his grip on the steering wheel, maneuvering his way through the traffic like a pro. He stole a glance at Kayla through the rear mirror. She wasapplying pressure with a cloth to her wound, her face pale, but her eyes— held something more than the pain she was supposed to be feeling."Say something please," she whispered, her voice hoarse.Ethan exhaled sharply, shaking his head. "What in God's name do you expect me to say, Kayla? That I didn’t just hear Victor call you Elora? That I didn’t just watch you stand there like a deer in headlights instead of denying it properly?"Kayla swallowed hard. "Ethan, please, don’t tell Adrian. Not yet."Ethan let out a sad chuckle. "Not yet? Kayla, you knew all this time but didn't tell him?, you've been living with him, lying beside him all these time and yet you didn't tell him the damn truth?!!!" His voice rose, but he forced himself to be calm and focus on the road before he ends up causing an accident.Kayla reached out, touchin

The weather today was so good and warm. The ray of morning sun peeked Into the room through the glass, casting golden shadows. Adrian laid on the bed, one arm tucked behind his head, while the other wrapped around Kayla's waist, keeping her as close as possible. She laid on his chest, her fingers tracing from his face to his chest, their legs tangled. No words were spoken, none was needed. Not today, not even in this sweet moment."You know, I wish we could stay like this forever." Kayla spoke softly against his chest.Adrian smiled, giving her a kiss on her forehead. " Then let's never move. Let's just stay like this forever and ever "I just wish we could just live a peaceful life, like going for walks in the park or something without watching our backs."she said sadly."Hey baby, don't even be like that. Sooner than later, we'd be able to do everything that you love. All I know is , at the very end, we'd be fine. A flush crept up her cheeks and she tried to look away but he hel

The sun rose beautifully over the lockwood estate, making the environment look surreal.Kayla stretched beautifully under the silk sheets, her body still aching from the night before. Her skin tingled with the memory of Adrian’s touch, his kiss, the feeling of him inside her, the way he pleasured her in a way she couldn't imagine.“Happy Valentine’s Day, sweetheart,” Adrian’s deep voice broke through her thoughts. He leaned against the doorframe, his blue eyes soft, a beautiful smile plastered on his faceKayla sat up, smiling. “Is it Val's day already?"He walked to her, kissed her forehead, then murmured, “ Yes, it is. Now I need you to get dressed, I'm taking you somewhere special."She giggled. “Special? Where?”Adrian smirked. “How is it a surprise if I tell you"An hour later, Kayla stepped out of the mansion, looking so beautiful and speechless because she saw....Ethan stood by the car, grinning from ear to ear, while Clarissa waved excitedly, already seated inside. Adrian held
