[This part contains depictions of self-harm. Reader discretion is advised.]|| Author POV ||—FLASHBACK—Almost two years ago.Rosalie visited Velaris Island for the first time in her life. It was a vacation with her aunt and Kevin. The island’s beauty left her breathless.By the afternoon, she wanted some time alone so she went to the shore after telling Kevin.She wandered around. The ocean stretched endlessly before her. Waves glinted under the golden sun. She let herself get lost in the ethereal charm.She let the waves lap at her toes, feeling a strange, fleeting freedom.Though a grown girl, her mind wandered to childlike wonder. She scooped handfuls of sand, played with them, built little castles, letting the grains slip through her little fingers while laughing quietly to herself.As evening approached–the shore was completely empty, leaving her alone with the whispering waves. Rosa smiled, soaking in the tranquil beauty. A rare peace settled over her heart.The sky was lookin

|| Author POV ||Killian’s dead eyes slowly moved to Rosalie.He stepped forward. His presence was heavy in the quiet. Rosa’s body shivered under the thin duvet at his presence.She knew how furious he might be on her.Without a word, Killian pulled out the chair beside the bed and sat. Rosa flinched when his cold hand took hers and he began unwrapping the bandage from her palm.Killian didn’t ask why she did it, didn’t scold her.He worked in silence, focused on her hand. Never once he met her gaze. His face was a stone with no emotion, but the veins in his neck were visible. Rosa couldn’t bring herself to move, even her eyes.She kept her eyes turned away toward a corner.When Killian finished, he simply rose and left the room without a word.Rosa slowly lifted her trembling hand, staring at her naked palm. The flesh had already closed. There was no fresh blood, no need for another bandage. Her hand was finally free. It had healed.The scar remained but it wasn’t looking that bad.H

|| Author POV ||“Do you have somewhere safe to go? Will you go back to your aunt?”Rosa blinked through wet lashes and glanced at the window. She softly shook her head.She’ll leave today. Anywhere good as long as it would take her far from him.Aria already knew something had happened before and that Rosa wouldn’t return to her aunt’s house.“Then you can stay at my house. I won’t mind. You’ll be safe here. You can stay as long as you want. You don’t have to worry about anything.”Rosa felt a pang in her chest. She didn’t want to be a burden again. Even now, with nowhere else to go, the thought of relying on someone else made her stomach twist.But for the first time in days, she let herself imagine–just for a moment.. that maybe, just maybe, she could be safe.“No. I’ll go.. somewhere.” Rosa mumbled, struggling to breathe properly.“Somewhere? What do you mean? What if he comes and takes you back? What if he hurts you or worse– That bloody bastard! You don’t know how worried I’ve b

|| Author POV ||“What would you like, sir? Wine .. or perhaps a cocktail?” Vivienne purred in an intentionally alluring voice.Killian didn’t glance at her. “Wine.”Vivienne froze, caught off guard by his disinterest. The man’s presence was sharp and utterly commanding.“She is my personal secretary.” Lucien added casually.Alessandro smirked, leaning back. “Quite hot.”Lucien winked at him in agreement.Vivienne blushed. She pressed her lips together and leaned closer to Killian, thinking she could sway him. But Killian’s jaw tightened imperceptibly. Totally annoyed.Vivienne leaned further, pressing her chest out, daring to tempt him. “I think a cocktail suits you better, sir.”“I’m not for sluts!” Killian spat in a hard voice.Vivienne flinched at the harsh dismissal. She gulped and set the wine before him and stepped back. Her confidence was momentarily shattered. Her ego was bruised.“C’mon, Salvatore. Don’t act so cold. She’s impressive in bed.” Lucien added with a smirk.Killi

|| Author POV ||Rosa flinched at his sudden snap.“Are you the one who fell in front of my car weeks ago? My brakes failed. That was you, right?”Rosa’s pulse quickened. Memories going back to the night she escaped. She forced her gaze downward, refusing to meet his eyes.“I’m sorry for what happened. Your life could have ended. because of me. I never got the chance to apologize. You just ran away like you’ve seen a ghost. I tried calling but you were gone. At least I caught a glimpse of you in the dark, I recognized you. If I hadn’t turned the wheel that moment, things could’ve been worse.”Rosa’s fingers tightened around the plastic cup. “It’s.. it’s okay.”He leaned slightly forward, “No, really. I’m sorry. I’m responsible for the accident. My hand has broken too. Did you go to the hospital? I’m sure you must have been hurt. I’ll compensate you for everything.”Rosa widened her eyes. “No. I’m fine.”“No, it’s not fine. Just mention the amount.”Rosa looked back and forth into his
