 The bar door closed behind Marcus. The sound felt final, like a trap snapping shut. Damien stood there for a second, staring at the empty space where the man had been. His hands were clenched into fists at his sides. Kai could see the rage building in him like a storm that had been waiting too long. Kai touched his arm. “Damien. Breathe. He’s gone.” Damien turned to him, eyes burning. “Gone? He just threatened you. He sat there with that smug face and said he’d destroy you if you didn’t sign with him. He wants to use your past against us. Your pain. Your history. Like it’s a weapon he can swing.” Kai kept his voice low. “I know. It scared me too. But we can’t lose our heads. We have to think smart.” Damien laughed, short and bitter. “Smart? I’m done being smart. I’ve been smart my whole life and look whe

 They sat together on the couch for a long time after the call with Victor ended. The penthouse felt smaller, like the walls were listening. Damien’s hand stayed on Kai’s knee, thumb moving slowly back and forth. Neither of them spoke for a while. The city lights outside the windows kept twinkling, but the room felt heavy. Kai finally broke the silence. “I need to do something. I can’t just sit here and wait for him to make his next move.” Damien looked at him. “What are you thinking?” Kai stood up and walked to the window. He stared out at the city for a moment. “I’m going to meet him. Alone. Just me and Marcus. I want to hear what he really wants. Maybe I can talk him down. Make him see that threatening me isn’t going to work.” Damien stood up too. “No. That’s a bad idea. He’s dangerous. He already show

 They lay in bed for a long time after, bodies sticky with sweat, hearts still beating fast. Damien’s hand rested on Kai’s chest, fingers lightly tracing the phoenix tattoo like he needed to feel it was still there. The room was quiet except for their breathing. Kai stared at the ceiling, mind spinning from everything that had just happened. The intensity. The way Damien had taken control. The way it had felt both terrifying and exactly what he needed. Damien shifted beside him, pulling the sheet up over their legs. “You okay?” he asked, voice low and a little rough. “I was pretty hard on you.” Kai turned his head to look at him. “I’m okay. Sore, but in a good way. I needed that. Needed to feel like I was yours again after all the mess with Marcus.” Damien’s fingers kept moving over the tattoo. “You are mine. I don’t doubt that. But hear

 They stood in the kitchen for a long time after, bodies still close, breathing slow. Damien’s hand rested on Kai’s lower back, fingers moving in small circles like he needed to keep touching him. The air smelled like sweat and the faint garlic from the dinner they never finished. Kai leaned against the counter, shirt still half open, feeling the ache in his muscles from how hard Damien had taken him. “You okay?” Damien asked, voice low and a little rough. He brushed Kai’s hair back from his forehead. Kai nodded, smiling a little. “Yeah. I’m good. Sore, but good. I needed that. Needed to feel you like that after the day I had.” Damien kissed his forehead. “I needed it too. Every time you go meet him, I get this knot in my stomach. I hate sending you out there to lie for us.” Kai ran his hands up Damien’s chest. “I kn

Kai came back to the penthouse two hours later. The door clicked shut behind him with a sound that felt too loud in the quiet space. Damien was still on the couch where he had left him, staring at the floor like the answers were written there. His eyes lifted when he heard the door. They looked tired, red around the edges, like he had been sitting there the whole time.“You came back,” Damien said. His voice was low, almost surprised.Kai dropped his keys on the table. He didn’t sit down. He stood there in the middle of the room, arms crossed, like he was holding himself together. “I didn’t know where else to go. Lila’s place felt wrong. Everything feels wrong right now.”Damien stood up slowly. He took a step forward, then stopped when Kai didn’t move. “I’m sorry. I know that doesn’t fix it. But I am. I didn’t know about my father. I swear I didn’t. If I had known, I would have told you. I would have tried to make it right.”Kai looked at him. His eyes were hard, but there was someth
