NIXIE’S POVI stared at the ceiling, watching the shadows move across. My heart felt heavy, pounding against my bruised ribs.How did he know? My mind raced as I clutched the phone to my chest, how could he possibly know that I told Zyran to call off the guards?I pulled the phone out from under my pillow, my hands shook so much I could barely unlock the screen, I read the second text message that appeared beneath his first one.“Those goons in black suits kicked my motel door right off the hinges, Nixie, they had me pinned to the dirty carpet, ready to drag me to the airport, until the leader's phone rang, so he looked down at me with disgust and said that my ex-wife begged for my pathetic life, telling me I was lucky you still cared.”A hot tear slipped down my swollen cheek, stinging the fresh cut on my lip.I shouldn’t go, I should block his number and lock my doors, I should let him rot in whatever cheap motel he was hiding in. My mind screamed at me to be smart, to protect the b

MATEO’S POV"Mr. Thompson?"I stood up quickly from the plastic chair in the waiting room. "How is she, Doctor?"The doctor sighed heavily and removed his glasses. "She is alive but she is in very bad shape, sir, she has severe malnutrition and frostbite, also she is likely to have temporary memory loss, so you may have to repeat anything you say hours later again.""Can I talk to her?" I asked, my voice tight."You can go into her room, but she cannot answer you," the doctor warned gently. "Her body went into extreme shock from the freezing cold and the trauma of living on the streets, her muscles are completely stiff and she cannot move well, and she cannot speak a word right now.""Will she survive?" I asked, glancing down the hallway."Yes because you brought her here just in time," the doctor responded with a nod. "Do you know her name, sir? We need to contact her family.""She has no family," I said coldly. "I will pay all her medical bills, put her in your best private VIP suit

MATEO’S POVThe heart monitor beeped in a slow, steady rhythm.I stood by the window of the room, looking out at the New York streets. "Water."The voice was incredibly weak, it sounded like dry leaves scraping against concrete.I turned around.Mina was awake, bandages were still wrapped around her cheek, but color was slowly returning to her pale face, she looked at me with hollow eyes.I walked over to the small table, poured a glass of water, and added a plastic straw, I held it near her cracked lips."Drink slowly," I said.Mina took a small sip and swallowed hard, wincing in pain, she let her head fall back against the pillow and stared at me."Who are you?" Mina whispered. Her voice was raspy and broken.Gosh, the doctor said it, she has temporary memory loss, and now she has forgotten all I said to her and doesn't even remember me."My name is Mateo Thompson," I said, pulling a chair closer to her bed and sitting down. "I am the CEO of Thompson Enterprises, I found you in an

MINA’S POVThe private elevator doors opened with a soft chime.I stepped into Mateo’s huge penthouse, my body was still a bit stiff, but the hospital treatments had worked, I could walk and I could move, the bandage on my cheek had shrunk, hiding the ugly scar underneath.Mateo walked in behind me, he dropped my small travel bag on the floor and walked straight to the glass bar in the corner of the living room and poured himself a glass of whiskey."Your room is down the hall on the left," Mateo said coldly, taking a long sip of his drink. "The doctors will come here tomorrow morning to start planning your plastic surgery."I didn’t go to my room, I stood in the middle of the empty living room."This is a very big house, Mateo," I said softly."It’s just a place to sleep," Mateo replied, not turning around. He kept his back to me, staring out the window.I watched his shoulders, he was tense, his jaw was clenched tight. He was a very handsome, very rich man, but he was completely mis

ROOSEVELT’S POVThe tray hit the floor with a loud crash, sending hot water and broken porcelain flying across the hallway. I was frozen in shock, my body still as I stared at the woman on my front mat.Mina stood before me, but she didn’t resemble the arrogant, cruel woman who had tried to ruin my life five years ago, the scar that had once sliced down her cheek was gone, her skin looked smooth and flawless in the dim light of the hallway."What the hell are you doing here?" Zyran shouted, his voice tremoring with rage as he stepped back, pushing me behind his shoulders for protection. "How did you find this address? What did you do to your face?"Mina didn’t smirk or laugh as usual Instead, she let out a loud, pained sob and dropped to her knees on the floor, her hands trembling as she looked up at us with wide, terrified eyes."Please, Zyran, don’t shut the door," Mina begged, her voice cracking and breaking into a desperate one. "I know you hate me, I know I deserve it, but I have
