Aliya's POV The question froze the entire room instantly. For a second, nobody moved or spoke, and the silence that followed felt heavier than anything else that had happened today. Leo sat there looking between us innocently, completely unaware of how complicated that single question actually was. I looked toward Dylan instinctively, but his attention remained fixed on Leo now, his expression unreadable in a way that told me he was choosing his response carefully. Children always asked the hardest questions at the worst moments because they had not yet learned how much adults hid from each other constantly.“She’s…” I started quietly before stopping myself almost immediately. What exactly was Lydia supposed to be described as? Saying she was Dylan’s ex sounded too simple for the amount of destruction currently surrounding us because of her.“A complicated person,” Dylan answered finally. Leo frowned slightly after hearing that explanation.“That doesn’t explain anything,” he said s

Aliya's POV The moment I saw Lydia standing there, fear crashed through me so violently that I stopped breathing for a second.Everything inside my body went cold instantly while my mind struggled to process how she had managed to get upstairs without anyone stopping her. Leo stood only a few feet away from her, completely unaware of the danger now standing inside the same room with us. Lydia looked calm, disturbingly calm, and somehow that frightened me more than if she had walked in screaming. Her eyes moved slowly from Leo to me before finally settling on Dylan, and the smile forming across her face carried something deeply unsettling underneath it.“You really increased security,” she said softly. Dylan stepped forward immediately, placing himself between her and Leo without hesitation. The movement happened so naturally that it made my chest tighten painfully for a completely different reason.“How did you get up here?” Dylan asked coldly. Lydia tilted her head slightly, still s

Aliya's POVThe moment Dylan realized the security system might be compromised, the fear inside me turned completely real.Until now, part of me still believed this situation could somehow remain controlled, contained within arguments, threats, and intimidation. But hearing Richard’s voice echo through the stairwell while alarms screamed around us shattered that illusion entirely. They had followed us directly into the building, manipulated security, triggered distractions, and somehow regained access to each other despite being separated only minutes earlier. Nothing about this felt reckless anymore. It felt planned carefully enough to terrify me.“We need another route,” one of the guards said quickly. Dylan nodded immediately, though his attention stayed focused on the stairwell entrance where distant footsteps continued echoing upward.“There’s a maintenance elevator on the east side,” another guard added. “Restricted access only.” Dylan turned sharply toward him.“Can it bypass t

Aliya's POVThe moment Lydia pulled out the gun, my entire body stopped functioning properly.Fear exploded through me so violently that I could barely breathe as my eyes locked onto the weapon in her trembling hand. Leo immediately grabbed onto me tightly, confused and terrified all at once while the guards shouted commands across the parking structure. Everything around us suddenly felt unreal, like the scene unfolding in front of me belonged inside a nightmare instead of real life. Lydia’s expression had changed completely now, and whatever fragile control she still held earlier had finally shattered beyond repair.“Lydia,” Dylan said carefully. His voice stayed calm, but I could hear the dangerous tension beneath it immediately. He moved slightly in front of us again, shielding both Leo and me without hesitation.“Put the gun down,” he continued quietly.“No,” Lydia replied sharply. Her hand shook visibly while holding the weapon, but somehow that only made the situation more terr

Aliya's POVEverything after the gunshot felt blurry and emotionally exhausting. Police officers moved around the parking structure collecting statements while paramedics attended to the injured security guard nearby. The flashing emergency lights painted everything in harsh colors that only made the situation feel more unreal inside my head. Leo stayed unusually quiet beside me through all of it, and honestly, that frightened me more than if he had cried loudly. Children were never supposed to become this silent from fear.We were eventually escorted into a private waiting area inside another building connected to the parking structure. Dylan refused to let us leave without additional protection, and none of the officers argued with him after witnessing the situation firsthand. The room they brought us into was calm and warm compared to the chaos outside, but my body still had not stopped shaking properly. Every loud sound made my heart jump now because my mind kept replaying Lydia r
