Which said everything.Julia dropped her teacup. Literally.Porcelain shattered against the marble floor as the image of her dead husband flashed on my phone screen."No," she breathed. "No, that can't be—he's dead. I saw the casket. I buried him. I cried."Mike stepped forward, expression grave. "We've sent the photo to facial recognition. Early scans are showing a 92% match to Michael Anderson's last known medical profile.""Then the bastard faked it," Julia whispered, staring at nothing. "He faked it all."I took her hand gently. "Julia—if he's alive, we need to stop him bef

Regina's POVI watched the video over and over again. It wasn't the betrayal that shocked me Lloyd had always been a snake.It was how easy it looked. Like ordering coffee."I want the girl dead."She nodded with No hesitation.Like my life... like my baby's life didn't even matter.Nicholas had gone still beside me, fists clenched, jaw ticking like a time bomb."This was posted on a private server, meant for black-market contractors," Mike said, pacing the room. "Someone hacked it, probably to sell the hit. But the hacker sent it to me instead. Said they 'like rooting for the underdog.'""That makes two of us," Jenna muttered.But me?

Regina's POV Hope cooed softly in my arms, completely unaware that her entire existence had become a bargaining chip. I stared at the photo on my burner phone again. Julia Tied up with Blood on her face. Eyes wide in terror, but still alive. And that message... "Bring the child Or bury the mother." I nearly dropped the phone. Jenna, sitting across from me on the jet, saw the color drain from my face. "What is it? Regina?" I showed her. She didn't scream. Didn't cry. Just clenched her fists so tight her nails drew blood.

Everyone says you’ll leave me one day. That I’m just a phase for you.”His jaw tightened. He stepped closer, crouching so his eyes met hers. “Listen to me. I don’t care what they send you. I don’t care what they say. You are not a
