And Lorenzo, oh sweet Lorenzo—whose touch still haunted my skin. I knew what they all wanted. I knew what I wanted. And I would have it. One secret. One betrayal. One kiss at a time. Later That Night – De Luca Estate Garden Rain fell like shattered glass as thunder cracked the sky. The party had ended, but the war had just begun. I watched from the shadows. Valentina stormed into the garden, heels clicking furiously. Alessandro followed seconds later. “You knew she was alive,” she hissed, voice slicing the night.

“Adley is my friend. You trusted her to keep me safe at club Obsidian, and now she’ll keep me safe at the festival. And don’t even think about bodysnatching to spy on me.” I was unable to hide my frustration as it flashed within the depths of my eyes. The festival of Night was our most dangerous event.

What began as a harmless birthday celebration ended with a single reckless choice—one that crossed lines, shattered loyalties, and bound her to the one man she was never supposed to want.

For at the end of each reign, a new rule begins!” Alain’s mighty voice echoed through the night. Dark and decadent, yet still intimidating. Sasha, despite the tight grip of the Shadow Alpha around her wrists, was somehow carried away by her emotion that Cal is finally fucking dead. A tear fell to—

But I fucked his brother all night and I kicking enjoyed it. I am too shocked to utter a word. I simply sat in the dining and stared into empty space, lost I’m my thoughts. Carrie came over and sat next to me, holding my hands to offer comfort as we both sat in silence. I think I just destroyed my family, I let my stupid vendetta cloud my judgment. Now I’ve succeeded in ruining whatever contract we were supposed to sign today. I’ve lost our only chance of rebuilding our company, I’ve destroyed our lives because of one night of sinful pleasure.
