His hands slid to her waist, pulling her closer, and one hand found its way beneath her shirt, moving upward. As his fingertips grazed her skin, a cold sensation trailed upward toward her chest.Sophia froze, the reality of the moment crashing down on her. She pulled back abruptly, breaking the kiss and creating distance between them.Her breathing uneven as she adjusted her shirt. She avoided Jacob's intense gaze, her heart pounding in her chest.“ I.. I can't do this, Jacob.” she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper. “ It's not right.”Jacob's chest rose and fell as he struggled to steady his breath. “Sophia, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to push you. I just… couldn't help myself.”She shook her head, her arms wrapping around herself protectively. “ This is too much, Jacob. I'm still figuring things out. I can't….I can't give you what you want right now.”He stepped closer but stopped himself, sensing her need for space. “ I'm not asking for everything, Sophia. I just want you t

Ethan exhaled, his grip tightening slightly on the steering wheel. “ Sophia,” he began, his voice measured with firm, “i need you to know something . I've got evidence on Sarian, enough to ruin her completely.”Sophia's head whipped toward him, her brows knitting in surprise. “ Evidence? Then why isn't she in jail?”Ethan sighed, his gaze fixed on the road. “ It's not that simple. Sarian's not just some opportunist; she's someone who made a career out of playing with people's weakness. If I pull the trigger on this, it's not just about sending her to jail. There's collateral damage, things she could use to hurt people I care about. I've been working to ensure there's no room for her to retaliate.”Sophia frowned, a mix of curiosity and frustration bubbling within her. “ What could she possibly have on you or anyone else that's stopping you? It sounds like you're giving her too much credit.”Ethan hesitated for a moment, his jaw tightening. “ Sarian…..she wasn't always like this. She g

Hours later, Sophia and Jacob sat in the hospital waiting room, the silence between them thick with unspoken tension. Sophia's hand trembled as she thought about the events of the day, questions flooding her mind.Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of approaching footsteps. A doctor stepped into the room, his expression calm but serious.“ Are you for Mr. Cole?”Sophia immediately stoof up. “ Yes. Is he okay?”The doctor gave a small nod. “ The bullet missed any major organs. We've removed it and stabilise him. He's very lucky. He'll need rest, but he's out of danger.”Relief swept over her, and she sank back into the chair, exhaling deeply.“ You can see him now, but keep it brief. He needs rest,” the doctor added before walking away.Sophia hesitated, glancing at Jacob.“ Go in,” Jacob said softly, his tone gentle. “ I'll be here waiting.”Sophia nodded, swallowing hard before making her way down the corridor.Sophia stepped into the dimly lit hospital room, her heart clench

Ethan reached for Sophia’s hand, his touch light but firm. “ You need to rest, Sophia. Go home, check on Raven and get some sleep.”She frowned shaking her head. “ I'm fine here, Ethan. I don't want to leave you alone.”“ You're exhausted,” he said, his voice gentle but resolute. “ You've been running on fumes since yesterday. Raven needs you at your best, and so do I.”Sophia hesitated, her worry etched into her features. “ I'll only be gone a little while,” she said, trying to assure herself more than him.Ethan smiled faintly. “ That's all I'm asking. Besides, you don't want Raven to think something's wrong. He's already been through enough.”She bit her lip, reluctant but knowing he was right. “ Fine,” she said reluctantly. “ But I'll come back first thing in the morning.”“ Deal,” Ethan said, squeezing her hand.As she stood, an idea popped into her head. “ Should I call Luca to come over? At least you won't get bored while I'm gone,” she suggested, half joking.Ethan chuckled, s

That Night.After the police left, Daniel remained vigilant, pacing around the living room as Sophia tidied up the shards of broke glass. She couldn't sit still, the adrenaline still coursing through her veins.“ Why don't you try to get some sleep?” Daniel suggested he checked the locks on the doors and windows for the third time.“ I can't,” she replied, shaking her head. She glanced at Raven, who was still asleep on the couch, clutching his toy car. “ What if they come back?” “ They won't,” Daniel assured her. “ Not with the police already involved. I'll keep watch, I promise.”Sophia nodded but didn't move. Instead, she busied herself making tea in the kitchen, her hands trembling slightly as she poured the water. She brought two mugs into the living room and handed one to Daniel.“ Thanks,” he said, sitting down across from her. For a moment, the two sat in silence, the only sound the ticking of the clock.“ Do you think it was Sarian?” Sophia finally asked, breaking the silence
