Chapter: 71 | Unseen EyesLilah's POV :The next morning dawns cold and gray, the sky heavy with the threat of rain. I stare at the ceiling, trying to ignore the gnawing unease lodged in my chest. The events of last night replay in my mind, each detail sharp and unrelenting.I roll out of bed with a groan, determined not to let my nerves get the better of me. I have work today, and Linda is counting on me.By the time I leave the apartment, the streets are alive with the bustle of village life. The familiar chatter of vendors and the scent of freshly baked bread fill the air, grounding me in the present.Still, as I weave through the market toward Linda’s bakery, I can’t help but glance over my shoulder every few steps.---Work starts as it always does, with Linda greeting me warmly and handing me a cup of tea.“Morning, Lilah,” she says, her voice cheerful despite the gloomy weather.“Morning,” I reply, managing a small smile.We fall into our usual routine, and for a while, the steady rhythm of baking sooth

Chapter: 70 | Shadows in the LightLilah's POV :I wake up to the first slivers of dawn creeping through the curtains. The quiet hum of the village surrounds me, and for a moment, I let the peace of it settle over my restless heart. It’s strange, living somewhere so far removed from the chaos of my past. But no matter how much I try, I can’t seem to leave the shadows behind.I slip out of bed, careful not to wake Lucy or Robert. The last thing I want is another argument about how I shouldn’t be working. They mean well, but I can’t keep relying on them. I need to pull my weight.The walk to the bakery is quiet, the cobblestone streets damp with morning dew. As I step into Linda’s shop, the warmth of freshly baked bread envelops me.“Good morning, Lilah,” Linda greets me with her usual smile, handing me a cup of tea.“Morning,” I reply, already tying on my apron.Linda has been nothing but kind since I started working here. She’s patient when I fumble a recipe, quick to praise when I get something right. I’m learning mor

Chapter: 69 | A Fresh StartLilah's POV : Lilah woke up early, the faint sunlight filtering through the thin curtains of their small rented apartment. The quiet hum of village life outside the window felt worlds away from the chaos she’d fled. She shook off the lingering remnants of her restless night, determined to make today productive. She’d been staying here with Robert and Lucy for weeks now, grateful for their support but restless with the feeling of being a burden. Her search for work had been disheartening—every shop and stall in the village market either didn’t need help or couldn’t afford to hire anyone new. But today, she was determined to try again. Pulling on her worn coat and tying her hair back, Lilah grabbed her small purse and slipped out the door, leaving Lucy and Robert to their morning routines. The market was bustling by the time she arrived, the aroma of fresh produce, baked goods, and spices mingling in the crisp morning air. She wandered past the stalls, scanning for any signs of

Chapter: 68 | The Threads TightenLilah's POV :The next morning, the air in the apartment feels heavier, as if the walls themselves are closing in. I barely sleep, tossing and turning until the first rays of dawn seep through the curtains. The note lies on the nightstand, its message burning into my mind.You can’t hide forever.The words feel like a noose around my neck.By the time Robert comes home from the bakery, I’ve managed to convince myself to stay calm. He sets a box of leftover pastries on the counter and eyes me suspiciously.“You look like you’ve seen a ghost,” he says, brushing flour from his hands.I force a smile. “Just a rough night.”“Rough how?”“It’s nothing, Robert. Drop it,” I snap, sharper than I intended.He raises an eyebrow but doesn’t push further. Instead, he grabs a cup of coffee and retreats to his room, leaving me alone in the kitchen.Lucy stumbles in later, her shift at the bar clearly taking its toll. She flops onto the couch with a groan, her red hair sticking out in all directions.

Chapter: 67 | Shadows in the DaylightLilah's POV :The streets seem quieter than usual, but maybe that’s just me. Every step I take feels heavier, as if the weight of someone else’s gaze is pinned to my back. I glance over my shoulder again, my heart skipping a beat, but the sidewalk behind me is empty. Just a woman walking her dog, a cyclist pedaling lazily, and the occasional honk of a car. Normal. Too normal.I pull my coat tighter, the brisk December air biting through the fabric. My doctor said I was fine, perfectly healthy, yet I feel anything but. Maybe it's the lack of sleep or the constant ache in my chest that has nothing to do with my health and everything to do with him—Ivan.He doesn’t want me. Worse, he probably wants me dead. I remind myself of this every time my thoughts drift to the way his voice dipped when he was angry or the rare moments when his icy exterior thawed. Foolish. There’s no going back, no undoing what’s already been done.I shake the thoughts away and focus on the walk home. Robert and Lu

Chapter: 66 | A New BeginningLilah’s POV :The village was small, nestled in the lush countryside of southern France. Rolling hills stretched out as far as the eye could see, dotted with vineyards, olive trees, and cottages that seemed untouched by time. It was picturesque, serene—everything we needed after the chaos we’d escaped. But no matter how beautiful it was, I couldn’t shake the heaviness that lingered in my chest.Robert had found the village through a contact of his, someone who knew how to keep secrets. The house he rented for us was small but cozy, with pale stone walls and a thatched roof. It sat at the edge of the village, overlooking a field of sunflowers that swayed gently in the breeze. For most people, this would be paradise. For me, it was a hiding place.Lucy and Robert were already settling in, unloading the few belongings we had from the car. I stood in the doorway, staring out at the quiet street, my hand resting on my stomach. The thought of the life growing inside me still felt surreal, l

"Everything of you is a non-existing dangerous drug, Natalia. And I'm addicted to it." He whispered in my ear.
He brushed his nose on my neck and then my hair like he was smelling my body and my hair. I stopped breathing and started wiggling.
"H-how do you know my name? W-Why am I here?" My voice came out as a mere whisper.
"I couldn't stop thinking about you from the moment I laid my eyes on you. Fuck, you looked so fucking sexy in that outfit." He said in a husky tone. His hands fell on my waist and grabbed it so tightly that I could tell it would leave a mark.

Chapter: Bonus Chapter VII "Just relax. You'll be okay." He rasped before positioning himself between my legs. His big hard cock throbbed and precum dripped from it. My mouth watered. "Wait!" I blurted out. "What happened?" His face paled in confusion. "I want to do something with your- ah- that." I blushed pointing at his hard erection. Mariano smirked mischievously. "You want to do what with my dick, babygirl? You want it in your little mouth?" He whispered beside my ear as I nodded with warm cheeks. "I want words, Marjan." He demanded and it turned me on. "Yes." I whispered, looking into his eyes with desire. I switched our position as he was now under me. I started kissing and biting the skin of his neck, leaving hickeys. I wrapped my hand around his hard shaft and ran my thumb on his precum dripping tip. He let out a loud growl. "You're driving me crazy, Marjan!" He grunted. I kept pumping his erection and kissing his hard chest, torso and then his cock. His breathing was shaky as he let out s

Chapter: Bonus Chapter VIThe car stopped in front of a tall building. It wasn't a hotel or something like that. Mariano led me inside the elevator and pressed the button on the ninth floor. "Where are we?" I asked in confusion. "We are heading in my apartment. I've arranged everything here." He replied with a sly smirk. I felt my breath stopped. Only God knew what was he going to do with me tonight. As we finally reached his floor, he opened his apartment door, revealing a well decorated and dimly lit living room. The apartment was huge. It was so cozy, clean and modern. There was an open kitchen, floor to ceiling windows and a few doors which I assumed was bedrooms. "Your house is beautiful." I smiled. "Well, I barely come here. My actual house in Italy is hundredth times bigger than this." He chuckled. Rich criminal. Mariano led me toward a dining table placed between the kitchen and the floor-to-ceiling window. I saw a clear view of the city from the window. "I hope the food is not cold." I h

It took me a few moments to realize what was going on.Mariano was kissing me.I tried to push him but he pulled me closer and moved his lips. I felt like all of my anger, hurt and sadness vanished in one blink as I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him back.His grip on my neck tightened, making me moan and open my mouth. He took the opportunity to shove his hot tongue inside my mouth and explore me.His kiss became rough and hungry with so much passion. I clenched my thighs as his one hand roamed over my waist and butt cheeks, making me gasp and moan every time. When we were out of breath, we finally broke the kiss and breathed heavily."Damn. You talk too fucking much. Talk nonsense anymore, I'll make sure you learn your lesson." He rasped, forcing me to clench my thighs tightly."And I don't have a fucking girlfriend. Ava was an ex and she was trying to get my dick again but I didn't let her come

Chapter: Bonus Chapter IVMarjan's POV:Months later... Time passed as Mariano and I kept meeting and knowing each other. He used to take me many places.It had been three days, I haven't heard from Mariano.He suddenly changed and started ignoring me. I called him multiple times in these three days but neither did he pick up nor did he answer my messages. Today I decided to go to the mall. When I reached the mall, I felt like someone was following me. When I looked around, I saw Mariano. I straightened myself and looked around, pretending like I never saw him behind me. I kept walking fast and got in a nearby shop. When I looked behind, Mariano was gone then. Disappointment shot through me. I shouldn't care about him. When he could ignore me, I needed to ignore him too. "Marjan?" I jumped when a familiar voice called my name. I turned around and met the pair of familiar grey eyes. "Hi!" I forced out a smile and started walking.I felt my heart ache. Maybe I was being too clingy that's why he decided to

I got in the washroom and spattered some water on my face.I was in a breathing mess, so I took a long breath to calm myself down. When I finally calmed myself down, I opened the door and made my way outside but them a I hit myself with a drunk man."Hey, it's ladies washroom!" I spoke and scrunched my nose as he smelled like shit."I know, baby. I just followed you." He grinned disgustingly, making me cringed."What? How dare you? Get out of my way!" I shouted and pushed him but he didn't bulge.Fear started consuming me. I looked around but found no one. I was now alone with a drunken man nowhere in the ladies washroom. If he somehow did something wrong, nobody was there to help me."You're so sexy. While you were dancing with that son of a bitch and rubbing you sexy ass against his, I couldn't take my eyes off. Now don't shout and come to me." He started walking forward as I started backing away."No
