Chapter 111: Sign the Papers

- SIERRAI didn't sleep. I just lay on my side of the bed, staring at the digital numbers on the nightstand as they slowly blinked their way toward three in the morning. My stomach kept tight in resentment, keeping me wide awake.Finally, the study door down the hall opened and closed. Heavy, dragging footsteps walked into the master bathroom, followed by the sound of running water. He was brushing his teeth.I slid out from under the duvet, my bare feet hitting the cold concrete floor without a sound. I didn't grab my robe. I just walked fast down the dark hallway, slipping into his study before he could finish up.The desk was neat, as he always kept it pristine, but I knew exactly where he kept his personal keys. I slid open the top right drawer, my fingers scanning the back until they hit the small brass ring. I took the smallest key, unlocked the deep bottom file drawer, and pulled out the thick, cream-colored envelope.The divorce papers.I didn't look at them. I just grabbed a

Chapter 112: Clear as Mud

- DESMONDI spent the entire elevator ride down fighting back a surge of rage. By the time I hit the back seat of the SUV, I was shaking so damn hard I could barely punch my passcode into my phone.A transaction. That’s what she called it.Every word she’d spat at me in that kitchen was like a rusty nail scraping down my ribs. I couldn't get the sound of her voice out of my head. I could still see the pure disgust in her eyes when she admitted she had to imagine I was someone else just to let me touch her.Dammit. I’d spent the last three months feeling like my chest was hollowed out, drowning in the silence she left behind. I brought her back because I couldn't breathe without her in the city. I apologized. I brought her fucking soup. And she looked at me like I was a piece of shit stuck to the bottom of her shoe."Sir?" Nigel’s voice broke through the noise in my brain. He was looking at me in the rearview mirror, his face a total blank mask. "We heading straight to the office?""Ju

Chapter 113: Preparing Draft

- DESMONDThe draft on my screen was a total joke. Every time I tried to type out something about "strategic family alignment" or "personal milestones," it read like a robot trying to explain human feelings. I rubbed my eyes, the blue light from the monitor making my head spin.The glass door clicked open, and Randy Faulkner walked in.Randy was the head of PR, but honestly, the guy was more like a professional fire extinguisher. He’d been spinning bad press for my old man since before I had a driver's license. If a board member got caught doing something stupid, Randy was the guy who made the story vanish by morning. He had this easy, relaxed way of walking, no jacket, top button undone, hands in his pockets, as if nothing in the world could ever stress him out."Lexie looked like he was about to cry out there, Des," Randy said, dropping into one of the leather chairs and kicking his feet out. "What are we spinning today? Did we lose the shipping lane or did you just chew off another

Chapter 114: Capturing Moment

- SIERRA The click of the front door unlocking at seven PM usually meant I needed to brace myself for a lecture or a cold shoulder. I was sitting on the edge of the mattress, my phone clutched in my hand, waiting for Michael to text me the drop-off location. Instead, Desmond walked into the bedroom, and he looked... different. The stone-cold bastard who had slammed his fist on the kitchen island this morning was gone. His tie was loosened, his top button was undone, and when he saw me, his shoulders actually dropped. The hard line of his mouth softened, making him look almost vulnerable. "Sierra," he said, stopping at the foot of the bed. He didn't crowd me. He just stood there, hands in his pockets, looking at me like he was trying to figure out how to approach a stray dog. "You're dressed." "I'm always dressed, Desmond," I said, my voice flat as I tossed my phone onto the duvet. "What do you want? If this is about the office logs or spying on my flower shop, save your breath. I

Chapter 115: The Heavy Stuff

- SIERRA The sea bass was actually incredible. I hated that I enjoyed it. I hated that every time I took a bite of that buttery, flaky fish, I forgot for a split second that I was sitting across from a man who treated my life like a chessboard. "So," Desmond said, leaning back and swirling the last of his wine. He looked entirely too relaxed. "What do you do all day in that penthouse while I’m out playing CEO? Besides plotting your next great escape, I mean." I wiped my mouth with the linen napkin, keeping my eyes on my plate. "I sketch. I think about things I actually like. It’s a wild concept, I know." "You were a hell of a designer back in the day," he said, and for once, there was nothing fake about it. "Why don't you come back to the office? I’ll clear out a suite on the executive floor. You can run the creative team for the new marketing and shipping campaign. You’d be better th

Chapter 116: Cold Light

- SIERRAThe place he took me to was called Crow’s Crest. It was this rocky, secluded bluff up on the northern edge of the city, totally hidden from the highway.When we were teenagers, before the families started carving us up into assets, we used to sneak up here with a six-pack of cheap beer just to look at the harbor.Tonight, the wind was brutal. It whipped off the water, rattling the heavy SUV's frame as we sat in the front seats. Below us, the city lights looked like a spilled bucket of glitter stretching all the way to the black edge of the sea."Still the best view in the state," Desmond said, his hands resting loose on the steering wheel. He wasn't looking at the city, though. He was looking at me."It's different now," I said, leaning my head against the cold glass of the window. "The buildings are taller. There's too much noise.""The view didn't change, Sierra. We did." He reached across the console, his large, warm hand wrapping over mine. "But it's still us. Underneath a

Chapter 117: Keep the Rock

- SIERRAI didn't even use the clasp. I just tugged at the chain until it gave a sharp little click against my skin, ripping the Blue Moonheart off my neck. I tossed it onto the glass dressing table. It hit the surface with a loud thud, sliding right into a bottle of perfume before coming to a stop.Glittering garbage. That’s all it was.By eight o'clock, the sun had fully dropped, leaving the bedroom in that weird, bruised-purple twilight. I was sitting on the edge of the unmade bed, watching the clock eat the minutes, when my phone screen lit up.Desmond.I picked it up, but I didn't say hello. I just held it to my ear, listening to the muffled background noise of a car engine on his end."Sierra," he said, his voice sounding entirely wiped out. "Look, the board meeting ran over, and now I’m stuck dealing with some late compliance issues for the European sector. I’m going to be late. Don't wait up for dinner, alright?"I didn't say a word. I didn't even breathe."Sierra? You there?"

Chapter 118: The Hard Line

- DESMONDI just stood there. My brain flat-out stopped working.The word divorce seemed to fill the room, choking out everything else, and I couldn't get a single breath in. Twenty-four hours ago, her head was on my shoulder on a windy bluff in Crow’s Crest. I was holding her hand in the dark, thinking that maybe we’d finally found a way out of the mud.And now? She was standing there in her perfect, cold blank expression, looking at me like I was a stranger who’d wandered into my own apartment."Say something," she said firmly. What terrified me was how calm she was. If she were screaming, I could handle it. If she were crying, I could fix it. But this dead, flat tone? It felt like a door slamming in my face."No," I muttered, my hands tightening into fists at my sides. The rage was there, burning hot and bubbling right up from my throat. I’d spent twelve hours in a goddamn boardroom with a series of meetings. I hadn't eaten since a stale bagel at six in the morning. My head felt l

Chapter 119: Front Page News

- SIERRAThe sun hadn’t even cleared the skyline when I gave up on sleep. My eyes felt like the sand had rubbed them, and my jaw ached from clenching my teeth all night. There is no divorce. His stupid, arrogant voice kept looping in my head, making my stomach churn harder than the morning sickness ever could.I pulled a battered canvas duffel bag out from the back of the closet.I didn't care what he said. I didn't care about his threats, his security guards, or his midnight tantrums. I was packing. Just a few sweaters, some jeans, and my passport.My phone was sitting on the nightstand, completely dead from when I’d ignored his calls the night before. I plugged it in, waiting for the little screen to light up, and walked out into the kitchen to get some water.I checked the hallway. Total silence. Looks like he was still knocked out in the bedroom.A heavy silence hung over the penthouse. I reached for the remote on the kitchen island and flicked the TV on, just needing some backgr

Chapter 120: Burning Bridges

- DESMOND"Randy," I barked the second the line connected, not even giving him a chance to breathe. "Damn it! What the fuck did you dump on the wire this morning? I told you to use the specific copy we approved last night... No, don't tell me it was a system error! Look at the ticker! Who gave them the Wellington name? Who told them about a child?""Desmond, look, it’s a complete shit-show down here," Randy’s voice came crackling through the receiver, sounding totally frantic, his breathing heavy like he’d been running laps. "I didn't have a choice, man. The copy got swapped at the last second, and by the time I saw the queue, it was already live on the main wire."I listened for three seconds, the blood roaring in my ears so loud I could barely make out his stuttering voice. Heat rushed to my face until it felt like it was on fire."I don't give a damn!" I screamed into the phone, spinning away from Sierra because I couldn't bear to let her see me lose my mind like this. My fingers d
