he called out. Vanessa had just ended her call when she heard the voice. Turning around, her eyes met the gaze of her treacherous husband, Lucas, the man who had shattered her soul and broken her heart to pieces three years ago. Hatred coursed through her veins, but she maintained a calm and nonchalant expression "V... Vanessa?" Lucas stuttered, unsure if he was dreaming. The woman before him couldn't possibly be Vanessa. That timid, pathetic woman he once knew could never transform into this stunning beauty.

A PAWN & A KING ~ALICE’S POV~ I was still standing there, staring at the door Noah had just walked through, trying to piece my sanity back together. But that was the thing about sanity. Once it cracks, it doesn’t take much to shatter. A low groan cut through the silence. I turned slowly, my stomach flipping as I saw Edward stir on the floor. Another groan, and he rolled onto his side, wincing as he dragged himself up onto his elbows.

That had been fine. Until the day it wasn’t. One afternoon, Gabriella returned home to find her little sister giggling with a group of friends in her bedroom. The moment she stepped inside, her heart had stopped. The pages of her favorite book—her most treasured possession—were scattered across the floor, torn apart, mutilated. Some of the pages had been folded into crude princess fans, others trampled under tiny feet. The sight had been unbearable. Tears welled up in her eyes. Her lips trembled. “Why?” she whispered, her voice barely audible.

Bennett pleaded, he looked almost broken. “Does anyone know?” I had to know if my father knew. “Ace has a feeling, but I haven’t confirmed it.” “How does Ace know?” “I’ve always felt a pull towards you my entire life, I know we used to be close as kids, you were so… alive back then, so full of joy and hope, even though you were treated like a house guest you never let that deter you. You were fiercely protective of Ace and of me, I was in awe of you even when we were ten. But then you changed, you stopped spending so much time with us, the light you held within you dimmed as every year passed, I figured you just didn’t like spending time with us as much anymore and Ace wouldn’t talk about it

Pulling one of the frame pieces out of the mess, I heaved it with all my strength and shattered the glass. I could get in now, but the snake could also get out. It dropped to the ground and headed for the opening, then shied back, moving slowly and gingerly. The broken glass cut at its scales. It was so desperate for food, it came at me anyway and let the glass slice it to ribbons. That gave me an idea. I picked up a particularly large shard of glass and waited.

He can’t even find a shoulder when he’s shattered, when he’s mourning. “I’m sorry," I said again, fighting back my tears… He frowns harder. “What the hell are you sorry for?” “For not seeing any of this before today.” I point at the bottles, at the frame, at him, but my hand feels slow, like it’s moving through water. “You look like complete shit, Steve. Not the normal tough-guy look you always have when you’re trying to scare people or fuck me. The real broken kind of shit.

We pulled away slowly, leaving her there in the dust. She shrank in the rearview mirror, finally collapsing on the pavement, like some broken toy left behind. I did not feel a thing. She chose her road, and I set the final scene. She wanted to play traitor; she had to be ready for the fallout. Seth? His time in the clink was anything but a cakewalk. I had made sure to pull some strings early that morning. Given his crimes and the fact that he had lost everything, along with the coldness I could not quite hide, it was inevitable that he would be taught a harsh lesson by someone: what it felt like when everyone turns against you.

"To be honest, after the accident, I lost my will to live. Without both of you, I didn't know what to do. Then I got to learn that Christopher Stallion was behind everything and was keeping you both alive to extract information from you. Finding you both was what drove me. Being a novice, I made a lot of mistakes but Shawn was there for me. Many times I nearly died, he was there to save my life."
