•~•Solane’s POVMinutes later, the three of us were in the jeep. Nathaniel and I in the back, Davian up front with Nathaniel's driver, Matt.Silence stretched between us—thick, awkward. The soft flicker of streetlamps washed over our faces as the car sped down the deserted highway.But inside my head, it was anything but silent—my thoughts spun in chaotic noise.Davian could’ve said no. He should’ve said no. But he didn’t. Now, we were all headed to the same place—surrounded by people of high caliber, and worse... alcohol.What if he drank too much and caused a scene? Or worse, what if he exposed everything—because I hadn’t given him the money he asked for?A warm hand closed over mine. I turned. Nathaniel’s eyes were soft, concerned.“You’re sweating. Are you okay? Should Matt turn up the AC?”I touched my forehead. Damn it—I really was sweating.I let out a nervous chuckle. “It’s nothing. I sweat like this sometimes.”Davian turned around in his seat with a smirk. “That’s not normal

•~•Solane’s POVThe mansion was quiet. Too quiet for a house that had nearly lost three people in one night—and the fourth still missing without a trace.Nathaniel sat slouched in his wheelchair, eyes half-lidded but awake, while I knelt in front of him with a cloth soaked in antiseptic.A dark bruise was blooming beneath his hairline where the gun had struck him, the skin already starting to swell. I dabbed at it carefully, wincing when his jaw clenched.“I’m the one who got hit,” he murmured, voice low and worn, a hint of amusement slipping through. “Why are you wincing like you’re the one in pain?”I paused, swallowing hard. “I saw you clench your jaw, and I thought the antiseptic was stinging your wound, that you were in pain…”“...But you didn’t say anything or even curse, so I figured you were just trying to act strong, and I subconsciously winced for you.” My voice stayed even, but my hands trembled a little.Not from what had just happened—but from the image of him hitting the

•~•Aziel’s POVThe door creaked open a few minutes after I rolled in—and as expected, Irene stepped inside.She shut it behind her without a word, then stood still, arms slowly crossing over her chest.Her jaw clenched. Her eyes—sharp and disapproving locked straight onto me.I leaned back in the wheelchair, tilting my head lazily. “What’s with the face?”“What was that back there?” she asked, voice calm, but tight.I lifted a brow. “Back where?”“Your mother,” she snapped. “Why the hell did you talk to her like that? Accusing her of sleeping with your physiatrist? That was way below the belt, Nathaniel.”A faint smirk tugged at my lips.I should’ve encouraged her to pursue acting five years ago while she was studying business relations in university.She was too good at this—playing the concerned wife and daughter-in-law, pretending she actually cared that my mother and I had fought, when in reality, it was exactly what she wanted.I let the smirk linger, just to see what she’d do ne

•~•Third Person POVThe air in Nathaniel’s hospital room was thick with tension, a silence he had no intention of breaking.His gaze stayed fixed on the window while Melissa perched on the edge of his bed, her hands moving with forced calm as she unpacked food containers from the large basket she had brought.The soft cling of plastic lids and the crinkle of foil was too loud in the silenceShe didn’t look at him.Just kept her hands moving, like staying busy might smother the unease clawing at her chest.“I brought your favorites—roasted chicken, creamy pasta, even those little lemon tarts you used to sneak from the fridge when you thought I wouldn’t notice.”Melissa placed the last container on the side table, a soft smile tugging at the corners of her lips.Nathaniel didn’t even look in her direction. His gaze remained locked on the window, his expression unreadable.She exhaled a slow, almost inaudible sigh. “It’s been over a week since you woke up, and you’ve barely spoken a word

•~•Third Person POV The room was silent— not the peaceful kind of silence, but the kind that clung to the air, ringing in your ears and pressing against your chest. Cold. Thick. Empty.Davian lay curled on the cement floor, skin pale, lips dry. His shirt clung to him, soaked with sweat and dried blood.The cuts on his arms had crusted over, but the bruises along his ribs still throbbed with every shallow breath.His body ached in every corner, every muscle feeling as if it had given up.His eyes stared blankly at the ceiling—or what might’ve been the ceiling, as the darkness swallowed everything above him.It was impossible to tell where the walls ended and the shadows began. There were no windows, no light. Just an endless pit of nothingness.How long had it been?He tried to remember. One day? Two? A week?His thoughts drifted to Irene. Was this her doing?No. He shook his head slowly.He remembered one of the masked men grabbing her too—rough hands, loud threats. She had screamed

•~• Aziel’s POVDavian's eyes widened, shock and confusion fighting for dominance as he locked eyes with me.There was no mistaking the recognition in his gaze—the moment everything clicked into place in the bastard's head.I glanced at Ryan, who stood beside him, ski mask still on, silent and waiting for my orders.He was my most loyal man, the one who led the others the night Davian was taken. I only ever called on him when things got out of hand.Like when I needed to get out of marrying Shoshana Bates, I had Ryan and the other guys stage an attack convincing enough for me to fake getting crippled from the aftermath.“Can you turn on the lights?” I said, my voice low. “It’s kind of dark in here.”“Yes, boss,” Ryan replied immediately, pulling a small remote control from his pocket.He pressed a button, and the room blazed to life in blinding brightness. Davian groaned, instinctively shielding his eyes with his arm.I smirked at his discomfort.“Much better,” I muttered, adjusting m

•~•Nathaniel’s POVI sat on the hospital bed, barely moving under the sheets. The air smelled too clean—disinfectant, rubber gloves, and whatever IV fluid they had me hooked up to.A nurse stood beside me, quietly scribbling on her chart after checking the monitors. She adjusted the IV and went through the same routine I’d seen over and over since I woke up.She didn’t say much—maybe she could tell I wasn’t in the mood. Or maybe she’d just stopped caring who the patient was, having attended to me for over a week now.My eyes drifted to my right wrist. With my left hand, I slowly traced the skin, searching for something that wasn’t there anymore.The couple’s bracelet Irene gave me when we first started dating.She bought it on a random Saturday after our fifth date—nothing fancy, just a braided leather band with a silver charm that had our initials carved into it.She said wanted something on me that proved I was taken. I had it on before the accident.I asked my mother about it a

•~•Nathaniel’s POVSilence.Her breath caught. Her eyes shimmered. “Bastard?” she whispered.I cursed under my breath, dragging a hand through my hair. “I didn’t mean it like that.”“Then how did you mean it?” she fired back. “Because from where I’m standing, it sounded like you just denied being the father of our baby.”I stared at her, chest rising and falling fast. I needed to calm down. This wasn’t her fault. She didn’t know she’d been with my twin the whole time.I took a step forward, gently placing my hands on her shoulders. I kept my voice low. “I just mean… we still have so much ahead of us. A baby now would change everything. So maybe… we could just—”I trailed off, hoping she’d catch on.Her brows pinched. “We could just what?”Was she pretending not to understand?I hesitated, then said it. “Maybe… we terminate the pregnancy. And try again later. When we’re both ready.”She slightly pulled back like I had just slapped her.“You mean when you’re ready,” she corrected, her j

•~•Aziel’s POVThe conference room was silent, save for the woman’s voice at the far end of the table.The lights were dimmed, and the projector bathed the table in warm golds and cool greens as each slide clicked forward with the tap of her remote.“…and with the ocean breeze sweeping across the third hole, guests will experience premium golfing without ever leaving the resort.” She spoke, but I was hardly listening to most of what she was saying.I leaned back slightly, my index finger resting against my lips, nodding once to appear engaged.Across the long table, the board members looked impressed—some scribbling notes, others nodding in sync, most already sold on the idea. My phone vibrated once on the glass table beside me, the buzz sharp and insistent. I glanced at the screen.Unknown Number.My eyes narrowed. It was the anonymous caller.I swiped the call away without hesitation, my jaw tightening. This wasn’t the time.But barely ten seconds passed before it vibrated again.T

•~•Aziel’s POVI wheeled down the sterile corridor, stopping in front of Ward 3B—the room the nurse had pointed me to at reception.Outside the room, the glass sliding door separated me from the people inside.My mother was perched on a chair beside the bed, leaning in with concern carved into every line of her face.Dominic stood behind her, arms crossed, silent. But it was the man lying in that bed that made my blood run cold.Davian Foster.Tubes snaked into his arms, his wrist wrapped in surgical tape. One eye was bruised and swollen, lips split.His skin was yellowed, sunken—like someone who had been dragged out of the grave and shoved into a hospital gown."Bastard," I muttered, the word bitter in my mouth. "I should’ve killed him that day.”————That day…The gunshot echoed through the room.Davian jerked violently, his eyes snapping open.He slowly reached up to touch his forehead—the exact spot where my gun had been pressed just moments ago—and blinked in confusion.His gaze
