Elara's POVI was still staring at Bella when her eyes traveled over my dress. I could see the disapproval flash across her face like lightning - the way her lips pressed together, the way her eyebrows twitched downward. But she quickly covered it up with that fake smile she wore like a mask.The disapproval in her eyes made my heart sing with satisfaction. Good. Let her be bothered by how I looked."Are we supposed to be in a bad mood?" Killian asked, looking between us with confusion.Bella's smile stretched wider, but I could see the strain around her eyes. "No, why would I want that? I'm just happy to see you guys finally getting along."Killian nodded, and his next words made my chest warm with pride. "Yeah, because she's my wife. Couples fight all the time and make up easily too."I smiled genuinely for the first time since breakfast started. Finally, Killian was making it clear where his loyalties should lie. Finally, he was making this snake, this kill-joy, two-faced Bella kee

Elara's POVAs I entered my room, I scoffed and threw my hands up in disbelief. "What the hell? She really has grown wings. How dare she?"The audacity of that woman was unbelievable. Calling me a slut, trying to make me feel small in my own home. My palm still stung from where I had slapped her, but it was worth every second of pain to see the shock on her face.I sat on my bed, my mind racing with thoughts of how to throw Bella out for good. She had crossed every line, and I was done playing nice. That bitch needed to go, and I was going to make it happen.Just then, my phone rang. The caller ID showed an unknown number, and when I picked up, a voice shrieked so loudly that I had to pull the phone away from my ear."Hello? Please, who is this?" I said, still holding the phone at arm's length."I'm sorry, I'm just glad you picked up! Elara, don't you remember me? It's Diana, your friend from university!"I sat up straight, my heart jumping with surprise. "Diana? Oh my God, what a ple

Killian's POVThe sight that greeted me when I walked into Elara's office made my blood freeze in my veins. My wife was gasping like a dying fish, her hands clawing at her throat where angry red marks were already forming. Leandro was standing over her like some kind of monster, his face twisted with pure hatred.Something primal and violent exploded inside my chest. This wasn't just anger - this was the kind of rage that could make a man kill without thinking twice.I rushed toward Elara, my heart hammering so hard against my ribs I thought it might burst. But first, I grabbed Leandro and pulled him away from her, driving my fist hard into his face with all the rage burning in my chest. The sound of her struggling to breathe cut through me like broken glass."Are you fine?" I asked, my hands shaking as I patted her back gently. My voice came out rougher than I intended. "Can you breathe well? Is your vision okay?"God, what if I had been five minutes later? What if I had stopped for

Killian's POVI stared at Elara as I drove in silence. The weight of her request hung between us, It pressed down on my chest, making it hard to breathe properly. "Please take Bella out of our house. I cannot cope with her anymore."Those words kept repeating in my mind like a broken record. The finger marks on her throat were already turning into ugly, even though I had applied ointment on it they were angry bruises that looked like they hurt just to exist. Every time I glanced at them while navigating through traffic, rage burned fresh and hot in my veins, making my hands grip the steering wheel tighter than necessary.My knuckles had turned white from the pressure, and I forced myself to relax my grip before I broke something. The last thing I needed was to lose control of the car because I couldn't control my emotions.When we finally pulled up in the driveway, Elara stepped out without waiting for me, without saying a word. She moved like someone who had used up all their energy

Elara's POVMy heart was beating so fast I thought it might burst right out of my chest. Killian's eyes were dark with desire that made my stomach flip and my skin feel hot all over."Just say the word, Elara," he whispered, and his voice was rough in a way that sent shivers down my spine.I should have been thinking clearly. I should have remembered everything that happened today, all the pain and fear. But all I could think about was how close he was, how good he smelled, how his hand felt against my skin."Don't stop," I breathed out, barely recognizing my own voice.His eyes got even darker, hungrier. He kissed me again, but this time it wasn't soft or gentle. This time it was deep and demanding, like he was trying to consume me whole.His hands moved over my body slowly, like he was memorizing every curve, every dip. When his fingers traced along my waist, I gasped against his mouth. He pulled back just enough to look at me, checking if I was okay, if I wanted this.I did. God, I
