Chapter 52Adrian’s PovThree days...Three days of constant fear and I don’t feel like myself anymore.I've been living in serious fear. Messages kept coming in and my past videos and pictures occupied the space in my phone. My half-naked pictures were the reason I didn’t give Darcy my phone when he asked for it. And anytime I hear my phone ring my heart race. The dark area of the house scares me especially in the hallway, it makes me jump. And every time Pink called my name, I wanted to grab her and run somewhere—anywhere—safe.But there was nowhere safe. Not anymore.Photos from the club. Screenshots of my record. Another picture showed me and Pink at the park, the grocery store, even her school.Whoever it was, they were watching us. Watching her.That morning, after Leo and I had dropped Pink at her school, I couldn't hold it in anymore, I broke down. My hands were shaking so badly I almost poured my coffee. There were black marks under my eyes from no sleep. Every sound made m

Chapter 54Darcy’s POVWhen the driver finally moved Brittany’s car disappearing down the driveway, I paused at the entrance frozen , fists clenched.Brittanys had the gut to enter my house to come do her dramas. The audacity of that woman.She came into my home, my space place—uninvited, acting like we still belong to each other and all her drama this evening happened right in front of Adrian.I closed the door shut harder than I meant to and pressed my back on it, my eyes shut.“Fuck,” I muttered. “fuck, fuck.”What must Adrian think of me now? She saw Brittany kiss me. Heard her lies about our past. And I hadn’t even stopped her. I’d just stood there, too stunned, too aware that Adrian was watching.Now Adrian probably believed I was two-timing her. Maybe she believed that I'm a kind of man who used women and couldn’t be trusted or maybe she was the reason I called her a mistake. Since we last had sex for a month now, I've been avoiding her to resist the urge of having another with

Chapter 56Martin PovStaying in the penthouse wasn’t an option anymore.The photo with a red X over my face crossed a line. Someone had broken into my home and left a clear warning.You’re marked. You’re next.For three nights I couldn’t sleep. I recall that picture several times, until it became a shape in my head. Every sound made me flinch. The locks I’d trusted felt useless. The place that used to make me feel secure felt like a trap.So I left.I told Amelia I had a business and it required going out of town, but she didn’t believe me, and I don't care. I packed a few things, took the hidden guns, drugs I'd sell to make cash and then I drove to a bare Queens safe house. At night I locked the door, and then use a chair to wedge the handle of the door. I told myself,I'd go back to my house when it was safe.Relief didn’t last long.I needed protection — the kind with muscle and silence. I called contacts who lived in that world.First, Carlos.“It’s me,” I said when he answered.

Chapter 58Brittany’s PovVivienne knew I hate waiting for someone that long. She knew and she'd kept me waiting for thirty minutes. Even though the bar was nice, the lights were not bright, just the way I liked it. It's quiet enough for private conversations, elegant enough, and it suits my standards.This is my first time here, I had picked it carefully. No one important ever came here, and that was exactly the point. I didn't want too many eyes since we had stormed other bars in town. I was finishing my second drink of martini when Vivienne walked in, glowing. I could tell she was happy.“You look like you just won the lottery, Vivienne ” I said as she sat next to me in the booth.“Better than the lottery, darling.” She grinned, signaling for champagne. “I have news. Good news.”I leaned forward. “Well, don’t leave me guessing. The gala’s in two days, Viv. Whatever it is, I need to hear it now.”Vivienne’s eyes sparkled. “I saw her. Adrian. Today.”My back stiffened. “Where exact

Chapter 60Darcy’s POVI stood in the doorway of Adrian’s room, staring at what she was doing, the scene in front of me. shocking. Somehow, I expected it. I heard my name twice. So I entered to know why she called me. The soft glow from the light filled the room. She sat on the bed. Startled.Her hair was messed up like someone from war and her clothes straps slipped off her shoulders. Sweat on her face, her breath was unsteady.And under that pillow, I spotted a torn magazine page. My photo.Beside her, a small purple device told me everything about what I had just walked into.My chest tightened.“Were you… fantasizing about me?” I asked calmly. I closed her door and got closer to her.Her face turned red. “No,” she said quickly, her breath was not steady.I held up the page. “Then what’s my picture doing here?”She froze. Her eyes wide open with embarrassment. She had no words to answer the question.The silence between us grew heavy with everything that has been going on. We’d bee
