Damian went straight to where Aria was sitting the moment he walked into the living room. He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss on her forehead.Aria turned slightly toward the woman beside her.“Damian, this is Clara, my closest friend from uni. Clara, this is Damian… my husband.”Clara stood and stepped forward with a warm smile and extended her hand. “Nice to meet you.”That was when Damian finally looked at her. Really looked. His eyes were dark and sharp. Intense enough that Clara almost withdrew her hand on instinct. He didn’t smile. He just held her gaze for a second that felt much longer, gave her hand a brief but firm shake, and nodded.Before he could step back, Aria pinched him on the arm.He turned, frowning. Aria arched her brows meaningfully toward Clara.Damian sighed, then finally spoke, “Nice to meet you. I hope you enjoy your stay.”Clara smiled again but it was small. She was still recovering from the… impact of his presence.Zara, being Zara, couldn’t resist. “Do

Zara woke up slowly, dragged out of darkness by a violent throb pulsing behind her eyes. Her head was pounding, her stomach twisting with nausea. She groaned and tried to lift her hand—but it wouldn’t move.She tugged again.No movement.No sound but the scrape of rope burning against skin.She forced her vision to steady and looked down. Her wrists were tied—tight—to the arms of a wooden chair.Fear slid into her bones, cold and sharp.She lifted her head, taking in the room around her. The place was worn out… walls cracked, ceiling stained, dust coating everything. And it reeked of something foul mixed with heavy dust—something she didn’t want to identify.Her vision was still slightly blurry from the chemical she inhaled, so she closed her eyes and breathed slowly, waiting for the dizziness to ease. It took a few minutes before her head cleared enough for her to focus.Then she heard footsteps. Her entire body stilled.Slow, heavy and unhurried, coming straight toward her.And that

Dimitri stumbled from the force of the punch, his body jerking backward as air was knocked from his lungs. He staggered, boots scraping harshly against the concrete floor, but it took only a second for him to recover. Rage flared across his face, twisting his features into something ugly and unrecognizable.He lunged at Jaxon.The impact of their bodies colliding echoed through the room as Dimitri slammed his shoulder into Jaxon’s chest, driving him back several steps. Dimitri was fast, brutal, every movement sharpened by years of training and bitterness. He swung hard, fist cutting through the air and connecting with Jaxon’s jaw. Jaxon reeled but didn’t go down, wiping blood from the corner of his mouth as he braced himself.They circled each other like predators, boots grinding against the floor, breath heavy and labored. Dimitri struck again, this time catching Jaxon in the ribs. Pain exploded through Jaxon’s side, and Dimitri didn’t let up. He pressed his advantage, landing blow a

Jaxon stayed seated beside Zara’s bed, his fingers loosely wrapped around hers. For a while, neither of them spoke. The silence wasn’t uncomfortable. It was the kind that settled after chaos, heavy but calm, like the aftermath of a storm.Zara was the first to break it.“What about Commander Reaves?” she asked quietly, her voice still weak but steady. “Is he… is he okay?”Jaxon nodded. “We got to him in time. He’s in the hospital now, getting treatment. He’s badly hurt, but he’s alive.”Relief washed over her face, and she let out a breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding. “Good,” she murmured. “I was so scared he wouldn’t make it.”“He’s tougher than he looks,” Jaxon said. “He’ll pull through.”Zara studied his face, noticing the exhaustion etched into his features. Dark shadows sat beneath his eyes, and his jaw looked tight, as if he hadn’t truly relaxed since everything happened.“You should rest too,” she said softly.He shook his head. “I’m fine.”“You’re not,” she replied,

After the laughter and hooting died down, Zara said, “We are here for you, babe.”“Thanks, girls,” Clara replied, then scooped a spoonful of pasta into her mouth.“Jeez, Clara. Careful or you’re going to choke,” Aria warned.Clara rolled her eyes and kept chewing, and Zara laughed at them.The next second, the hospital room door opened, and Jaxon strolled in with Damian and Christian on his heels.Clara stopped midway through chewing. Her eyes widened as she took in the tall men filling the doorway.Zara smiled at Jaxon as he walked straight to her bedside. He leaned in and kissed her gently.Damian did the same. He went straight to his wife and kissed her deeply on the lips, slow and unguarded, like he’d forgotten they weren’t alone.Clara was left staring at Christian, who was casually leaning against the doorframe. She felt heat crawl up her neck when his intense gaze settled on her. Instinctively, she looked down and wiped the pasta sauce from her lips, suddenly self-conscious.“W
