VALENTINA’S POV“Wait,” I said, breaking the silence. “Heartspade’s Hospital? I know it.” My voice came out louder than I intended, earning a few glances from nearby tables. “I mean, who doesn’t? It’s one of the biggest in the city. And this club is called Ace of Spades…” I trailed off, narrowing my eyes at him. “Plus, your last name is Spade. That’s not just a coincidence, is it?” I asked, arching a brow and gesturing downward with my finger.Christian nodded casually as if it didn’t matter much. “My younger brother owns this club,” he said, his tone nonchalant. “He’s the social one in the family. Dragged me out tonight, then bailed the second we walked in.” His annoyance was subtle, but it was there.Without thinking, I reached for one of the tumblers in front of him, brought it to my lips, and downed the liquor inside. The burning sensation tickled my throat, but I didn’t care.“Thank you for the drink,” I said politely, flashing him a small smile.“That drink was actually for my b

Valentina's POVThud! Thud! Thud!My heart pounded with effervescent energy as the phone dropped to the ground, crashing. I was too dazed to move as I continued to stare into space. Someone killed my sister! Someone killed Taylor!"Taylor?" I whispered to myself as though she could hear me as I fell to the ground, shutting my eyes while wrapping my arms around myself and desperately wishing I was dreaming but a sudden chill breeze blew by, snapping me back to reality. A single tear slipped from my eye as I replayed Taylor's voicemail over and over again just to be sure she was the one. "Run away and never look back," Taylor's words from the voicemail continued to play in my head continuously as I snapped out of my momentary reverie. I needed to act fast! Whoever came for Taylor might come back, and I needed to get away like she insisted. I walked over to the dusty television, glancing at my reflection through its hazy surface before stretching out to reach for the card. just like

Valentina's POVI grabbed the house keys and my wallet and told Aidan to wait for me. I was going to be quick.The walk to the store took me only five minutes. When I arrived, I lingered for a moment, observing my surroundings.I walked to the back of an aisle and picked out some canned goods and other necessities that could last for at least a week. It would be able to last us till I received the payment from Mrs Burrows, who would be able to settle the electricity bill and stock up on some groceries. I queued up to pay and once it was time, I gave the cashier my card. The sudden beep from the machine startled me a little. “Declined,” the monotony of the cashier’s voice caused me to purse my lips in exasperation. I could have sworn I had a little money on that card. I removed some of the items in my basket, “please try again.” The impatient grunts of the people behind me made me feel a little jittery, but I did my best to ignore them. She tried it again and the cruel beep sounde

Valentina's Point Of View My alarm jolted me awake, cutting through what little sleep I managed to get. Three hours—that’s all I had. The rest of the night had been spent tossing and turning, my mind consumed with thoughts about my new job. How I landed a position at the Hawthorne Mansion still felt like a mystery. Of all the places in the world, why did it have to be the very same house where Taylor worked before she… My chest tightened at the thought of her. Taylor. I would give anything to see her again. “Good morning, Mama! When are we leaving? I can’t wait!” Aidan’s excited voice cut through my thoughts as he jumped onto the bed beside me, his bright eyes filled with anticipation. I blinked, surprised. I never even told him about the job. Yet, somehow, he knew. Smart kid. He always paid attention to the little details, picking up on things even when I thought he wasn’t listening.
