SOFIA'S POV “Why don't you let us drop this. We shouldn't be discussing about her. It isn't right,” Selene insisted. Her eyes flickered non-stop as she spoke.I had never heard her stutter before, but that moment, I did. “But I really want to know more about her. Dane mentioned her yesterday when he was drunk. He seemed quite sober as he spoke about her and it left me with so much worry. Would you blame me for that?”“I understand very much how you feel, but my stand remains the same. I'm sorry, but I'm not changing my stand.”I exhaled, rising to my feet. My hands ran through my hair as I paced around. Was there really nothing I could do to change her mind?Damn it!! That almost ran me crazy. No. I wasn't going to accept that, not while I was still breathing — still existing.“Fine then!! I'm going to find out on my own if you're not going to tell me.”She jumped to her feet, her hand resting on me, “You shouldn't do this, Sofia. Dane surely wouldn't like what you're planning on do

SOFIA'S POV Mike was in our custody now. Most definitely to be killed as a traitor. The joy this gave me— words couldn't explain it.I smiled to myself as the thought came to my my head again. I was seated by the table with Dane in front of me. My man, my husband.He seemed a bit gloomy, though it was only for a while. Gosh, he was damned handsome. I knew this, but seeing him now — he seemed much more handsome than ever.“I had just recently lost something important to me back then, a friend. He was the best of friends I had ever known, and had.”Watching Dane mutter those words made me feel much love for him. I knew now that he wasn't all that the tough man people knew him to be.He also had his weakness, his soft spot. A friend of his who was very dare to him made him black out for a year. I held his hands in mine, loving the feeling of it on mine. “You've got nothing to worry about Dane. I'll always be here by your side. You have nothing to fear for.”He raised that hand to his l

SOFIA'S POV I laid in bed, tossing from left to right like one afflicted with so many problems. My body felt heavy, weighed down by exhaustion. Every part of me ached, from my head to my toes.My eyes felt gritty, and my mind was foggy. I couldn't seem to think clearly, and my thoughts were jumbled.I was tired, not just physically but also emotionally. The stress and anxiety had taken a toll on me, leaving me feeling drained.As I lay there, my gaze wandered around the room. I stared blankly at the walls, the furniture, and the window. But my mind wasn't on the physical space; it was on the turmoil brewing inside me.I was bothered by so many things. The memories of Mike, the fear of what might happen next, the uncertainty of my future with Dane. These thoughts swirled in my head, making it hard for me to relax.Despite all this, I was pleased that Dane was starting to notice something was wrong. He had asked me what was bothering me, and I had brushed it off. But I could see the co

DANE'S POV We were laughing at the top of our voices when the door creaked. The doctor walked in, a nurse accompanying him. He stood still, his hands clasped to his side.“Your grace.. Sir.” He ogled at me and then ar Raphael. "Sir Raphael can go home today. He's doing much better now and there's absolutely no need to keep him here in the hospital any longer." he said. The doctor's words filled me with joy.“But are you sure about that, doc?” I was hesitant, a need to be sure the doctor wasn't making a mistake.“Yes I am. He only sustained minor injuries which we already attended to. He's free to return home, sir.” I felt a rush of excitement. My heart was racing, and a big smile spread across my face."That's amazing news!" I exclaimed, trying to contain my enthusiasm. My excitement was palpable. I was thrilled that Raphael was recovering well and could finally leave the hospital.I felt like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders. The thought of Raphael being back home, safe

SOFIA'S POV Dane stood still for a few seconds, his chest rising and falling slowly as he tried to calm himself down. His eyes were sharp, still full of anger, but now there was also something else… disappointment."You all failed me," he said coldly to the soldiers standing in front of him. "You failed her.”The soldiers lowered their eyes. No one argued. No one tried to defend themselves. They just stood there, silent, like kids who had been caught doing something wrong.Then Dane took a step forward."Everyone, down," he said. The soldiers looked up, confused."Sir?" one of them asked. "I said squat," Dane snapped. "Now. Until I say otherwise."One by one, the soldiers began to squat down. Their knees bent, arms stretched out in front of them for balance. Some looked shocked. Some looked embarrassed. But they did as they were told."This is nothing compared to what could’ve happened tonight," Dane said, pacing slowly in front of them. "If someone had hurt her, if anything had happ
