All Chapters of Off Limit: Claimed By My Ex-fiance's Step-dad : Chapter 191 - Chapter 198

~~~Ryder~~~All my life, I never knew as day like this would come, where I'd have to take a knife for a fucking woman.If someone had told me Freya and I would end up like this, I'd have chopped off his head.Well, that's what we call life. You never could tell what will happen in the future. I hated women a lot and never knew I could ever want one or ever be with one. But Freya changed that perspective of me and made me believe not all women are demonic and manipulative like my mother. Anytime I remember how we met and how I had hurt her, making her suffer unnecessarily in the past, it feels like a dagger to my chest. It pains me deeply.Honestly, I regret every single one of them but I can't go back to the past and correct it. Maybe that's how God wanted it and I'm glad all those pain and suffering brought us together.And now today, I've realized what I feel for her. I've been fighting myself for a long time. I finally understand what those flutters in my chest means and will l

~~~Freya~~~Lincoln reacted fast. “Hey Noah! Block his view from the picture!” he shouted, already moving.I was panicking hard. My heart raced in my chest as tears blurred my vision. “What’s going on?!” I cried out, voice cracking. “Somebody please explain to me! What the hell is happening to him?!”Ryder kept clutching his head, bending forward with a low groan. His breathing was heavy and ragged, like he was fighting for control and losing. He tried — I could see him trying so hard — but whatever was happening inside him was stronger. He suddenly turned and stormed out of the memorial hall without another word, shoulders tight, steps heavy.“Ryder, wait!” I shouted, rushing after him.He pushed open a side door and shut it behind him with a loud click. I reached for the handle, but a gentle yet firm hand grabbed my arm.It was Nanny Grace worried face i met.“Don’t follow him, dear,” she said softly but urgently. “He needs some time alone right now. Let him process.”Tears streamed

~~~Freya~~~It’s been two weeks since everything changed, and today is my wedding day. I still can’t believe this is real. I’ve pinched myself so many times my arm is probably bruised, but every time I open my eyes, Ryder is still here, and this dream hasn’t dissolved. The Varkars had gone all out. Claudia and Zoey’s mom left no stone unturned — she orchestrated everything with military precision and flawless taste. The entire private beach had been transformed into something magical yet elegant. Everything was pristine: crisp white chairs lined perfectly on the golden sand, delicate white flowers cascaded along the aisle, and soft silk drapes fluttered gently in the sea breeze. Crystal chandeliers hung from wooden arches, and fairy lights were already twinkling in anticipation of the evening. If you asked me, this would easily be the loudest, most talked-about wedding Emeraldas had ever seen. Celebrities, powerful business associates, and the entire Varkar family filled the seats, t

Six months laterThe Santorini sunset wrapped the sky in fiery orange and soft pink as I stood on the balcony of our villa, the same one where Ryder had once torn my wedding dress off me in a haze of hunger. A light breeze tugged at the hem of my sundress, and I rested both hands over the gentle swell of my belly, feeling the faint flutter of movement beneath my palms.Everything is going smoother than I expected. Ryder has successfully overcome his trauma. He can stare at his mom's picture without going crazy over it. He tried and learned everything for my sake and I'm glad he's fine now. He has also reunited with Varkars fully. Everyone is fully happy now. Zoey is also 2 months pregnant too with Lincoln's child and Jesus, you should see how Alaric, Claudia and Aunt Zina almost turned the city upside down when they found out I and Zoey are expecting a child.What I'm happy about the most right now is that everyone is united. No one is keeping enmity with each other. Even my ex, Dyla
