Chapter: Destroyed!The sound tore through the air like thunder.A deafening crack echoed across the terminal, sharp enough to make everyone scream at once. Elena’s breath hitched violently as the ground beneath her seemed to shudder.“Kai—watch out!” she screamed.Her eyes widened in horror as she saw it—the massive glass window above them splintering, fractures racing across its surface like lightning veins.Time slowed cruelly as the pane gave way, shards breaking loose, cascading downward toward Kai.Without thinking, Elena lunged.She shoved him hard, forcing him out of the path just as the glass came crashing down. The momentum sent her stumbling backward. Her foot slipped. The world tilted—and then she hit the ground with a harsh thud, pain exploding through her side as a cry tore from her lips.The glass shattered around her, fragments skidding across the floor, stopping inches away.“Elena!” Kai shouted, panic flooding his voice.He rushed toward her, but she lifted her hand sharply, stopping hi

Chapter: Final Stand!The airport rose before them like a city that never slept.Floodlights bathed the wide concrete stretch in stark white, casting long, sharp shadows that sliced across the ground. Glass walls gleamed under the night sky, reflecting frantic movement inside—travelers dragging luggage, security personnel pacing with clipped urgency, digital boards flickering with departures, but there weren't many people as it was the nighttime. The air smelled of fuel, metal, and rain-soaked asphalt, heavy and electric, as if the night itself was holding its breath.This place was supposed to mean escape.Instead, it felt like a final stand.“Elena… we are already here.”His voice cracked with urgency as he slammed the half-destroyed car to a stop near the private terminal.The engine wheezed in protest before dying altogether, smoke curling faintly from the hood. Bullet marks scarred the sides, the back window shattered entirely, jagged glass glittering like broken stars on the seat.They had made it.S

Chapter: Envy!Levi puffed out the smoke before taking a long drag from his cigarette, standing near the railing from where the view of the pool was clear. Everyone was busy with the ceremony, but he had less interest in that. He secretly envied Vincenzo for having everything while he didn't.Many thoughts were running in his mind. Firstly, Luna being engaged to Luca, who didn't give a shit about their engagement.Yesterday's plan of caging Elena failed, but he was determined to replant the whole plan again. His mind was going crazy due to a lot of events going on in his life.But he somehow managed to stay calm as he didn't want to lose his cool in front of others."Soon I'll get to you, Vincenzo and then to that fucking Luca Moretti!"He smirked menacingly at the last name, but soon he frowned when he spotted someone near the pool in a black tuxedo. Standing tall while he was busy glancing at his watch, then refocusing on his surroundings.Levi could tell by his gestures that he was waiting for so

Chapter: Night of betrayal!Author's POV'The night bowed to Vincenzo Romano!The ceremony was held in a cathedral of power disguised as a palace—stone arches towering like ancient witnesses, chandeliers blazing with gold light that glinted off crystal glasses and cold eyes alike. Italy’s most feared men stood shoulder to shoulder beneath the vaulted ceiling, dressed in tailored suits and inherited arrogance, their whispers dying the moment Vincenzo stepped forward.This was his night.He moved through the hall with the quiet authority of a man who no longer needed to announce himself. Every step he took echoed with legacy—bloodlines forged in shadow, wars won without mercy, empires bent to his will.Heads inclined as he passed. Some out of loyalty. Some out of fear. All out of respect, Stefano gulped in fear but faked his ease while Lorenzo was beyond happy for his friend.Levi just clenched his jaw before glancing at Luca and Luna, who were officially engaged last week. The bright ring on her finger glared at

Chapter: Who are you?That evening felt heavier than all the others, as if time itself had slowed to watch me make my choice.The mansion was alive—voices echoing down marble corridors, guards moving with sharpened purpose, preparations unfolding in hushed efficiency. Tonight, my husband will be crowned king of a world built on fear and loyalty bought in blood. Tonight, Vincenzo would become untouchable.And tonight, I planned to disappear.I stood before the mirror, dressed for a celebration I would never stay to witness.

The only thing I needed to do to complete my dressing was to zip up the gown from behind.My hands stilled against the fabric, but my mind refused to quiet.Kai.My broth

Chapter: That's My Girl!"Listen to me before you make any assumptions. She had her own reasons, and only she could answer all your questions, so don't be angry about it. What she did was right, but I'm not accountable to answer your questions only she is. This is between a mother and daughter. I can't intervene."He stated."I'm letting it slide for now just because you are saying it."I sulked while he broke down in a smile."That's my girl!"He ruffled my hair and I laughed."Thanks Kai... Thanks a lot!"I appreciated whatever he did for me and everything he was still doing just for me. I am so grateful to have him in my life."Now you are making me sad."I frowned when he said that."Who thanks their own brother, silly girl? Am I not your brother?"I shook my head vigorously."Of course you are!"I stated."Then why this formality? Next time don't do that, Am I clear?"I chuckled but nodded my head instantly in anticipation.There was a silence for a fraction of a second before he attacked me with his nex

Chapter: Epilogue!Seven months later!The bedroom was a slumbering giant, quiet and dark. The only source of light was soft moonlight reaching through the window. The shadow of Eva clung to the walls as she got up from the bed way too silently, preventing herself from making any noise that could wake her husband. She entered the kitchen. The only sound was a faint hum of the fridge as she tiptoed barefoot across the cool tiles. Every step felt like a secret, the wood beneath her feet creaking just enough to make her pause and to see if her husband had come around.But she can't blame herself for waking up in the middle of the night because of her pregnancy cravings. That craving hit her like a storm hours ago, a hunger so fierce it gnawed at her and tugged her out of bed. Eva opened the fridge door with a careful softness, as if even the rush of cold air might betray her. The insides are glowing like a treasure chest just like moonlight.Grinning, she opened the ice-cream tub, taking a spoonful of mint

Chapter: His truth!There's a phrase called.'Pain is a silent storm that rages within, unseen by the world but felt in every breath I take.'They lost a baby!But they still had another one!In the hospital's white sheets Eva stared blankly at the ceiling. She was numb to feel anything absorbing the news from earlier. Her heart wasn't ready to accept that they had lost a baby, but she was still pregnant with the other one. Yes, she was pregnant with twins, but their fate took an ugly turn. Her heart pained at the loss, but at the same time it was relieved that she was still pregnant. She was pregnant but she lost the other one. She didn't know how to feel about it.The doctor checked her with a stethoscope while Vincent's gaze remained stuck on her stomach. He was feeling the same emotions as her but showed an emotionless demeanor towards the outer world."It's a phenomenon called 'vanishing twin syndrome'. It wasn't a rare case, as people believe, but who can escape destiny?"The doctor's last words ad

Chapter: We won't lose!Author's POV'Eva trembled as fear started rising in her when Chloe declared that, and before she could open her mouth to say something, a loud voice could be heard inside the basement."I'll burn down the world, including you, if you even dare to hurt my wife, Chloe."Her eyes snapped towards the source of the voice. She took a breath of relief as silent tears made their way through her eyes."Oh, so you have finally come, my dear son."Chloe stated sarcastically, but my eyes were stuck on Vincent, who wasn't even glancing her way. Her heart clenched thinking he might not forgive her this time for the stupidity she did."Come to the point, Chloe."His eyes remained firm on his mother."What's the hurry, son? We are meeting after so long, and I'm your mother, so don't call me by my name."Chloe's eyes started to turn red in anger when she stated the last line."You don't deserve to be called a mother. In fact, you don't deserve to be one."Chloe gritted her teeth at his words."Watch

Chapter: Heartbreaking Message!"If you want to find out about an important woman in your husband's life, then come and meet me at the given location."I stared at the message in front of me blankly.

Chapter: Sick?Holding my hair at one side, I continued to throw up in the toilet of whatever I ate this afternoon until my stomach emptied completely. Vomits are the most disgusting thing in the world. I always find them way to hell because it takes all my strength away, leaving me numb and weak. I was feeling so numb that I couldn't even stand on my feet even if I tried, so I sat there until I was able to stand on my feet.I was still feeling that sweet sore between my legs after our last night's session.I'm not complaining though. A tear rolled down my cheeks when last night flashed in front of me."I don't want you again in my life. Do you get that? I'm happy with my wife and don't want any other woman in my life."Whom was he talking about? Is he hiding his past from me? Don't I have the right to know? Did he had another woman in his past, and now she's trying to get back?I sobbed as I felt an immense pain inside my heart when I thought about possibilities. I should trust him and nothing else.

Chapter: Hiding?I stared up at him with my glossy eyes while his eyes were still closed as he made his wish with a blow of a candle. I smiled back through my glossy eyes when he opened his eyes, smiling."It's not a good thing to let others know about your wishes, Vincent."I exclaimed softly, trying to control my tears, but unfortunately, one tear escaped from my eye. He chuckled lowly before wiping my tear using his thumb."For me, I wanted you to know my wish."He whispered near my ear, leaning down."Because no one can fulfill it rather than you."I smiled, bringing the cake up towards him."Come on now, cut the cake and tell me how it is?"I exclaimed happily, but he narrowed his eyes in curiosity. I sighed dramatically before saying."Because I made it with my own hands for you."It's my first cake which I baked by the way, but I won't tell him because I don't want to terrify him by telling him it's my first time making a cake. Yes, I have baked before, but they were muffins, not cakes.He shoo
