Chapter 11

Aria's POVThe moment I stood up, a burning hot chest crashed into me.Killian crushed me into his arms. He was shaking uncontrollably.Familiar tobacco mixed with his body heat wrapped around me.Ten years of muscle memory is terrifying.My heart jolted. My hands almost lifted to hug him back."Aria... you're not dead... I knew it!"My eyes stung.But the next second, Tessa's filthy moans on our bed echoed in my head.Fake.It was all his sick game.Every tear he shed couldn't wash away the stench of his cheating.The emotion in my eyes vanished.I pressed my hands against his broad chest and shoved him hard."Keep your hands off me, Boss." I dusted my dress where he touched me. My voice was ice. "You've got the wrong girl. I'm not her. But I am here for her divorce papers."Killian froze.He stared at me in pure disbelief, his bloodshot eyes tracing my face.Aria's soft face was gone.I was bright, cold, and completely out of reach.The manic fire in his eyes slowly started to die ou

Aria's POVThe ruthless Don of New York didn't dare say a word.He didn't fish out the ring. He just shut the car door and watched me walk into the lobby like a beaten dog.A week later. My solo exhibition at Manhattan's top art center.The hall was packed. Cameras flashed everywhere.Killian brought his men and guarded the edge of the room.He chased away any man who tried to talk to me. Dressed in a black trench coat, his eyes never left me.I looked right through him.I stepped onto the main stage. Just as I took the mic, a sickening sound of ripping metal came from above.The crowd screamed.A massive metal sculpture hanging thirty feet above snapped. The steel cables broke, and it plummeted straight toward my head.Tons of sharp metal brought the stench of death. I couldn't even dodge.Suddenly, Killian charged onto the stage and tackled me hard to the floor.Warm, thick liquid splashed instantly across my neck.The sharp metal had pierced straight through Killian's back. Blood sp

Aria's POVAfter getting discharged, Killian started groveling.He booked out New York's top Michelin-starred restaurant, claiming to treat me as a "friend.""Get him a bowl of plain oatmeal. Make everything else Mexican ghost pepper spicy." I tossed the menu down, ignoring the man across from me.His back wound wasn't even healed.The waiter brought out a table full of blood-red, intensely spicy dishes, trembling.I picked up my fork, cut into a dripping red taco, and took a bite without blinking."Aria! Don't eat that!" Killian lunged forward and pinned my wrist down. Pure terror and pain filled his eyes. "Are you crazy? You forgot your stomach condition? Even a drop of chili used to keep you up all night in pain!"His voice was shaking, as if he was the one drinking poison.I coldly shook his hand off."Pain?" I wiped my mouth with a napkin, sneering."I am afraid of pain. But I was more sick of eating your bland Italian food and Wagyu every single day. You think you know me? I was

Chapter 14

Aria's POVThe bulletproof Maybach tore through the Manhattan night.Half an hour later, it pulled up to a hidden, ultra-luxury penthouse."Get out." He gripped my shoulder and forced me into the private elevator.The second the doors opened, I frowned deeply.Every piece of furniture, every rug, even the custom white tea scent in the air—it was an exact replica of our Chicago bedroom from five years ago.Killian dragged me toward the massive bed.With shaking hands, he pointed to a glass display on the nightstand.Inside were charred, blood-stained scraps of paper.The bloody love letters I had tossed into the fire pit before I left two years ago.He had dug them out of the ashes piece by piece and taped them together. Next to them lay our platinum wedding bands."Aria, look." The ruthless Don had tears bleeding from his eyes.Thud! He dropped hard onto both knees right in front of me!"I brought our home to New York. I found all our memories." He looked up, tears tracking down his ho

Chapter 15

Aria's POVWord on the street was that Killian went into sudden cardiac arrest and hit the ER the night I left.But I didn't care to watch the show. His cheap pity plays didn't make my heart skip a single beat.The next morning, I took my team and drove straight to a private estate in Long Island.That night, I sat alone behind a wooden screen at the outdoor lounge.On the other side, my young assistant was gossiping."Nyx, if your husband betrayed you, what would you do? Would you give him a second chance?"I swirled the ice in my glass, my eyes completely dead. "My ex-husband offered me half an empire to marry him, and he still cheated. Dirty is dirty. A second chance won't wash off his stench."Right then, a massive splash came from the deep end of the pool! Water shot ten feet in the air.I stood up slowly and walked around the screen.In the deep water, Killian was sinking in despair.He was in a thin black dress shirt. The fatal wound on his back was clearly still bleeding, turni

Chapter 16

Aria's POV"I won't sign!" He stared at me, his eyes bleeding red from the fever and obsession. "As long as I don't sign, you are still my wife! Aria, I'll die before I let you go!""Wife?"I dropped my leg. I unzipped my bag and pulled out a cold metal tube.I slammed the micro-recorder right into Killian's chest.The pen bounced off him and hit the stone floor. The button clicked, and it started playing.In the dark, quiet cellar, a perfectly clear, filthy voice echoed."Boss... it's so hard... so deep... cum all inside me, please?"It was Tessa's greedy moans, mixed with the sickening slap of skin against skin.I knew that sound too well. I hid that bug in the sofa of his private office right before I left Chicago.Next on the tape, voices from the hallway outside his office played."Let the Boss blow off some steam," an old Capo scoffed. "That delicate Aria has been barren for five years. Tessa is carrying the future heir. We have to protect her. Don't let the Donna find out."Even

Chapter 17

Aria's POVI let go of his soaked tie. Killian slumped against the wall.Disgusted, I pulled out a wet wipe, cleaned the fingers that touched his collar, and threw it at his feet."Get out of my sight." I turned and walked out of the cellar.Night fell.A Category 5 hurricane brought a massive storm. Long Island was completely locked down.Everyone was trapped inside the estate hotel.I walked to the front desk. "Extend my stay." I handed the manager my credit card.Right then, a pale, large hand reached out."Use mine." Killian's voice was terrifyingly hoarse. "Put all of Ms. Nyx's charges on my tab."I shot the manager a deadly glare. "Use my card. Now."Shaking, the manager quickly processed it.I took my card and walked straight to the elevator.Killian's limitless black card was left abandoned on the marble counter.Like a stubborn ghost, Killian followed me all the way to my room.The second I tried to shut the door, he shoved his hand into the frame.The heavy wood slammed into

Chapter 18

Aria's POVFor a whole week, Killian didn't show up.The hurricane passed. Manhattan returned to life.Every day, I got a text from an unknown number. All apologies from him.On the dawn of the eighth day, the final text came.[I will sign. Nyx, come to the underground private chapel in Manhattan one last time. Let me pray for your soul one last time.]If this was the final step for my freedom, I would play along.The underground chapel smelled heavily of gunpowder and old frankincense.Killian was already waiting.He was a walking skeleton, but his eyes held a terrifying, dead calm."Let's get this over with. I'm busy."Killian turned to face the altar at the end of the long aisle.Thud. He dropped heavily onto his knees on the hard stone floor.He didn't stand up. Slowly, agonizingly, he dragged himself forward on his knees, doing his bloody penance.The heavy thuds echoed.Blood quickly seeped through his suit, dragging a horrific red trail across the marble steps.He was already fa
