All Chapters of Revenge Born of Betrayal: Chapter 111 - Chapter 120

Aurora’s words still lingered softly between them.Darius Harrington looked at her for a long moment.His gaze was far calmer than his heartbeat was right now.Because finally—Aurora Blackwood had stopped running from her feelings.“Aurora,” Darius said softly.But Aurora shook her head first.“I don’t want to love someone again just because I’m afraid of being alone,” she admitted honestly. “I don’t want to choose you only because Dante disappointed me.”Darius slowly lifted his hand and touched the side of her face again.“Then choose me because you want me.”Aurora’s breathing immediately turned uneven.Because the problem was—she really was beginning to want him.Not out of pity. Not out of loneliness. Not because she wanted to forget Dante.Aurora wanted Darius because he made her feel at peace.And somehow, that was far more dangerous.Their gazes held beneath the dim balcony light for a long moment.Then, without realizing it—Aurora moved first.The kiss began slowly.Softly

The phone call ended a few minutes later. But Dante still sat motionless in the small apartment, staring blankly out the window. Peter’s words kept echoing inside his head. Dante’s jaw slowly tightened again. By now, he knew Darius Harrington well enough. And that was exactly what made everything feel even worse. Darius was not the type of man who played games. If he had already come this far into Aurora’s life— then there was only one step left. Marriage. The image of Aurora Blackwood standing at the altar beside Darius instantly flashed through Dante’s mind. Hazel in another man’s arms. And the little girl calling another man “father.” “No…” Dante muttered softly. His fists clenched tightly at once. Because no matter what happened— Dante would never allow that to happen. If he was already too late to win Aurora back… then at the very least, he would never let anyone replace him as Hazel’s father. Only he belonged in that place. Only him. But

Darius’s words immediately silenced Aurora Blackwood for several seconds.She stood in the living room, gripping her phone a little tighter.Hazel was still playing on the carpet, unaware of everything happening around her.“Move into your house?” Aurora repeated softly.“For a while.”Aurora immediately rubbed her temple.The problem was—the idea sounded far too reasonable to refuse.And that was exactly why it made her even more uneasy.Because living in Darius Harrington’s house meant allowing the man to step even deeper into her life.“Are you serious?” Aurora finally asked.“I don’t joke about your safety.”Aurora slowly walked toward the living room window.Her gaze fell toward the front gate, which was now guarded far more heavily than usual.Two security vehicles had already been stationed there for the past hour.And all of it existed because of one possibility.Dante Walker.“Aurora.”Darius’s voice came through the phone again.“You’re not safe there alone.”Aurora closed

The atmosphere inside Darius’s house felt far calmer than the chaos that had just happened at Aurora’s home.And somehow—that only made everything feel even more unsettling.Aurora sat on the sofa holding Hazel, who had already fallen asleep in her arms.Her gaze remained distant for several seconds after the call from her security guard ended.Meanwhile, Darius stood near the window, gripping his phone tighter.He had just finished speaking with the head of security at Aurora’s house.“The motorcycle had fake plates,” Darius said quietly. “And the rider disappeared immediately after throwing the rock.”Peter, who was sitting not far away, slowly leaned back.“Dante’s getting bolder.”Aurora immediately looked up. “So it really was him?”Peter did not answer right away.But the older man’s silence already explained everything.Aurora closed her eyes briefly.Because the longer this continued—the more Dante truly became someone she no longer recognized.Darius finally walked over and

Darius’s words immediately made Aurora straighten.“Where?” she asked quickly.Darius kept staring at his phone screen for a few seconds before finally answering, “Near the old harbor district.”A wave of unease instantly settled in Aurora’s chest.Because a place like that was not somewhere Dante would choose without a reason.“Is he there?” Aurora asked again.Darius shook his head slightly. “The car was empty.”Peter, who had been standing by the bedroom doorway the entire time, narrowed his eyes.“A warehouse?”Darius turned toward him. “My men found signs of activity inside one of the old warehouses.”Peter’s expression slowly grew more serious.“He’s starting to use old locations again.”Aurora frowned slightly. “What do you mean?”Peter walked slowly into the room.“Before he joined Blackwood Group…” the older man said quietly, “…Dante handled harbor distribution projects for several years.”Aurora’s expression immediately changed.Because she had just realized—Dante knew that
