Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTLeo's POVThe moment Sienna's words drifted into the heavy hush between us — "I can't" — something in my chest twisted.Not with anger.Not with heartbreak.But with the familiar, suffocating weight of inevitability.Because I knew she wasn't rejecting me.Not truly.No, this was armor. A wall she'd learned to build after years of betrayal, loss, and misplaced loyalty. She thought it would protect her, thought it could keep me out. But she was wrong.And one day — soon — she'd cave.Because love like this didn't die.It rotted.It festered.And eventually, it consumed.I let a small, crooked smile tug at my lips as she stared ahead, the credits still bleeding white against the dark screen."Had to try," I'd said. And I meant it.The lights lifted in the theater, spilling that honeyed glow across her skin, and God, she was art. The kind of art no one deserved to touch. And yet he had.Adrian.A muscle ticked in my jaw.That bastard had crawled his way back into her life, muddying her t

Chapter: CHAPTER EIGHTThe city glimmered like spilled jewels beneath the ink-black night. Lights shimmered on the slick, rain-polished streets, neon signs bleeding color into puddles. The hum of traffic was a distant murmur, a background to the steady pulse of my own heart.I sat in the back of my car, my fingers idly tracing the seam of my midnight-blue silk gown, the fabric pooling like liquid against my skin. The drive had been silent, save for the low hum of classical strings playing through the speakers — something mournful and achingly beautiful. And if I were honest, it fit too well. This night felt like something on the edge of a story you already knew would hurt.The car eased to a stop.I glanced out the tinted window, expecting the soft glow of chandeliers, the steady chatter of an exclusive dining terrace, perhaps the clink of wine glasses — something typical, expected. Instead, what met my gaze made my breath catch.A grand theater.Its facade was opulence frozen in time. Towering Corinthian c

Chapter: CHAPTER SIXThe morning sunlight poured in through the sheer curtains, painting my room in soft hues of gold and cream. I blinked slowly, stretching beneath my silk sheets as the quiet hum of the city stirred outside. It was almost too peaceful—unnervingly so. For a moment, I just lay there, listening to the quiet, grounding myself.By 9:45 a.m., I was seated at my desk, fresh-faced with my hair pulled into a low chignon, the kind that said put-together even if I hadn't slept well. I adjusted the angle of my webcam and clicked into the Zoom call right as the clock struck ten."Good morning, Sienna," Cara, my manager, greeted with her usual brisk tone. Her square-rimmed glasses sat low on her nose as she glanced between files on her desk."Morning, everyone," I replied smoothly, sipping from a steaming mug of Ethiopian roast."We'll get straight to it," she said. "The press tour kicks off next week. Tuesday morning show, red carpet Wednesday night, followed by the Harper's shoot Thursday, and the

Chapter: CHAPTER FIVE I turned slowly, unwilling to give him the satisfaction of seeing how much his voice had shaken me."Still eavesdropping after all these years?" I asked coolly, arms folding over my chest.He smiled, that infuriatingly smug tilt of his lips that once made my heart race. "Some things don't change.""Unfortunately." I tilted my head. "Enjoying the party?""Not particularly," he said, slipping his hands into his pockets. "But then, I didn't come for the party."Of course you didn't.I didn't move. I didn't blink. I just let silence stretch between us, taut as a wire.Adrian took a step closer. "You didn't answer my question.""What kids?" he repeated, his gaze sharp now. Searching.I almost laughed. The audacity."You lost the right to ask me anything the moment you gave mee those divorce papers, Adrian," I said, voice low and controlled. His jaw tensed, but he didn't flinch."You think you can show up at my premiere, throw around some nostalgia and possessive questions, and I'll… what?

Chapter: CHAPTER FOURThe sound of the crowd faded as Leo and I walked past the sea of reporters, their questions now drowned out by the buzzing of my thoughts. The stares, the flashes, they all felt like they were happening to someone else. I was numb, my pulse steady despite the tension that still clung to the air.“You’re alright?” Leo asked, his voice low but full of concern.I didn’t look at him. I kept my gaze forward, focusing on the grand theater doors ahead. “I’m fine.”He didn’t press me further, but I could feel his eyes on me, sensing the storm still brewing beneath my calm exterior.We stepped into the theater, and the noise from the press outside was replaced by the low hum of conversation, laughter, and clinking glasses. The velvet-lined interior of the Valmont Grand Theater shimmered under the golden lights, its opulence reminding me of everything that had changed in my life. I didn’t belong in the shadows anymore. I was part of this world, the world that once felt foreign to me—the world I

Chapter: CHAPTER THREEThe phone rang. Once. Twice. I almost didn’t pick up. But then, something inside me told me I had to. I glanced at the caller ID, my stomach tightening at the name flashing on my screen. Adrian. For a moment, I just stared at it. My breathe hitched, and my fingers curled tightly around the device. After three years, he still had my number. After three years, he still had the audacity to call me. The weight of the past pressed against my chest, but I refused to let it shake me. I wasn’t that naive girl anymore—the one who had once believed in him, the one who had been so blind to the truth. Jaw clenched, I finally swiped to answer. “What the hell do you want?” My voice was sharp, cutting, dripping with cold fury. A low chuckle came through the receiver. Smooth. Familiar. Infuriating. “Sienna,” he said simply. Not a question. Not a plea. Just my name. Like he still had the right to say it. I rolled my eyes and leaned against the vanity table in my dressing ro
