The man’s eyes widened in shock, but he tried to argue. "Ma'am, I—"

I cut him off, my gaze boring into him. Whatever he saw there must have convinced him, because he shut his mouth quickly, his horror plain on his face. "This way, ma'am," he muttered.

Before he could lead me away, the doctor caught up, panting and red-faced.

"Okay, time to go back to your room," he said, sounding far too pleased with himself as if this was some minor misunderstanding that could be easily solved.

The man raised a hand to stop him. "Don’t worry, Doctor. I’m taking her home," he said, his tone final. The doctor hesitated, looking between us, but didn’t argue.

I followed the mafia man out of the hospital, my bare feet slapping against the cold floor until we reached the garage. He stopped in front of a sleek black car and turned to me, a puzzled look on his face.

"Aren’t you going to change?" he asked, gesturing vaguely at my hospital gown.

I crossed my arms and glared at him. "No, I’m not. Take me back

    Clarissa POV The room was softly illuminated, shadows flickering on the walls as the late afternoon sun streamed through the curtains I could hear a faint murmur from outside, but it felt far away, like a fleeting memory just out of reach. My body throbbed with pain, each pulse a reminder of the turmoil that had transpired. I inhaled deeply, attempting to regain my composure, but the burden of my choices weighed heavily on me, like a thick blanket. I could see Lily standing there staring at me, Lily’s eyes were wide, shimmering with unshed tears, and I noticed her hands trembling as she gripped the edge of the bed. “You don’t get it, do you?” she said, her voice quaking. “This isn’t just about you. You’ve endangered yourself What if you got yourself killed? “What if?” I cut in, my voice rising. “What if I had done nothing? What if he had kept hurting people? I couldn’t just stand by and let that happen. Not anymore.” Anger surged within me, a fierce flame igniting the rem

    A chill ran down my spine as I watched Dominic enter the room. His expression was devoid of emotion, leaving me unable to decipher what was going on in his mind.Fear gripped me, and anger surged through my veins. Lily, sensing the tension, excused herself, clearly not wanting to be caught in the middle of our conflict.I got up from the bed, realizing for the first time that I was still in my hospital gown, but it didn’t matter to me.I noticed the confusion and anger in his eyes as he looked at me."I trusted you," he said slowly. I held back my emotions while scanning him, memories of our life from a year ago flooding my mind. I wanted to scream about how much I had trusted him, but something stopped me.Did I really want him to know I was Eve?I understood that revealing my identity would mean he would never let me go. He would keep me against my will, and now that my memories had returned, I wasn’t sure I wanted to stay anymore.The only thing that mattered was getting my son bac

    I watched as his knees buckled, falling to the ground. His face twisted in horror, confusion, and fear as his wide eyes locked onto mine. I stood frozen, trembling as I felt the tears sting my eyes. My heart raced, my body shook, and I wept, the weight of everything I had been holding onto crashing over me. I couldn’t keep it together any longer. I couldn’t hold it all in. I collapsed to the ground, my body convulsing with sobs as I cried out loud, my voice raw and broken. There was no stopping it now, no holding it back.It hurt. It hurt so much."Eve?" His voice was small, trembling as he spoke. His eyes begged for answers as he watched me break down in front of him. But I couldn’t bear to look at him. I turned my face away, shaking my head violently."No!" I screamed, my voice echoing in the small room. "No, don’t call me that. Don’t you dare call me that. I can’t... I can’t be her anymore."I yelled out at himMy words hung heavy in the air as I sobbed, curling in on myself as if

    The truth was, I had loved him. I had loved him more than anything, and that love had blinded me to who he really was, to the destruction he had caused in my life. I had given him everything, and in return, he had betrayed me in the worst possible way.And now, as I lay there, sobbing on the cold floor, I knew that I couldn’t go back. I couldn’t be Eve anymore. I couldn’t be the woman who loved him, who trusted him, who believed in him. That woman was gone, and in her place was someone I didn’t even recognize, some one I couldn’t comprehend.I stayed there for what felt like hours, the weight of everything pressing down on me, suffocating me. And then, slowly, I forced myself to stand. My legs were weak, trembling beneath me, but I couldn’t stay on the ground any longer.I walked to the window, staring out, and I could see where the event had took place, and I felt horribe.my breath coming in shallow gasps as I tried to calm myself.

    I spent the entire day in my room, not wanting to go anywhere, just lost in thought and feeling sad about myself. Suddenly, I heard yelling from downstairs.Without saying a word, I got up from my bed and hurried downstairs, making sure my robe stayed on. I realized it was Elise who was yelling.When I reached the top of the stairs, I saw Elise being restrained by some men, while Dominic stood in front of her.“Where is your daughter, Elise? I won’t ask again,” Dominic demanded rudely. It was clear he was looking for Harper, likely because of what I had told him. He seemed furious, and I had an idea why.“I would never tell you. Just kill me and get it over with,” Elise retorted.As I looked at my stepmother, memories of her flooded my mind. After my mother passed away, she moved in with Harper, and it turned out my father had been having an affair. As a child, I tried to adapt to their presence, but she never welcomed me.Harper, who was a year older, accepted me, but her mother view

    The bullet pierced her heart, and in an instant, she collapsed to the ground, lifeless.As I looked at her body, which had been full of life just moments before, I felt nothing, no sympathy, no joy, no sorrow. She had been cruel to me, attempting to take my life on several occasions.She was a terrible person, never once fulfilling the role of a mother, always prioritizing her daughter above all else.“Take her body and burn it. She won’t have a grave; make sure of that,” Dominic ordered with disdain. His men moved forward, seizing her lifeless form and dragging her away.Once they were gone, it was just the two of us. Dominic approached me, and I braced myself for a confrontation, expecting anger. Instead, he stood silently before me.He was strong, holding back tears he didn’t need to shed, but I could see the depth of his pain. The guilt in his eyes struck me hard.He took my hand, speaking with conviction.“You belong to me, my body, everything is mine. I know you despise me, and

    Dominic pov I felt miserable, I felt like a monster, I knelt there as I watched her walk away, and for the first time, I realized what my actions had caused her. How much I had hurt her, how I had pulled her heart out of her chest. I was broken, but not once did I shed a tear, she didn't deserve what I did to her, she deserved better than what I did. And I deserve to get the treatment she gives me, because of my reckless behavior, I hated myself for my actions, and my way of life, for how to had destroyed my family. Ivan was with my son, a son I didn't know existed until a few minutes ago, and I felt weak. Ivan probably was laughing in my face after what had happened, and I was ashamed of myself because she was right. I had personality pushed her into the arms of the enemy, and I had abandoned her and chased after someone who destroyed us, and took her away from me. It wasnt a shock that, Harper was a traitor, it was like I expected, and I had always ignored the signs, i c

    She was correct. I was his vulnerability; everything that transpired with Dominic stemmed from me. How had I failed to recognize it? His love for me nearly shattered him. He was a proud man, unwilling to acknowledge it, yet I had been the one to ruin him.The morning sunlight filtered through the gaps in the curtains, casting soft rays across the room. I lingered in bed longer than usual, my body feeling heavy and reluctant to rise.Meanwhile, Dominic had spent the night in Camila’s room. I could hear her cries of ecstasy echoing through the walls, and all I could do was weep into my pillow.Leo nestled closely in my arms, his gentle breathing creating a soothing rhythm against my chest. The thought of leaving him alone in his room, fearing he might be taken from me again, was unbearable; I couldn't let him out of my sight.A sudden knock at the door jolted me. I sighed, shifting slightly without disturbing him."Come in," I called softly, pulling Leo closer.The door creaked open, re

    I turned abruptly, my body instinctively orienting toward her.I wasn’t sure what I anticipated—surprise, anger, disgust—but what I received was far worse. Camila’s eyes widened, her pupils nearly engulfed by the intensity of what she was witnessing.Then the horror struck. Pure, visceral horror twisted her features as if she had been hit.Her voice sliced through the tension like a whip.“You… How could you do this?” she shouted.I stood frozen, my feet glued to the spot. Her voice echoed, and I could sense the pain lacing her words.Before I could respond, before I could even process what was happening, Dominic moved. In one smooth motion, he stepped in front of me, shielding me with his presence.“There’s no need to react or be dramatic,” he stated firmly. His tone was calm, yet the authority behind it made me flinch.Camila threw her head back and laughed, the sound sharp and piercing, as if ridiculing us both. Her laughter ceased abruptly, and when she turned to Dominic, her expr

    There was no safety, no safety at all while Vincent and Ivan were out there.We worked tirelessly to find Vincent, but we weren't even close. Then, after three days, we received an unwelcome visitor.Harper just showed up at the mansion and wanted to talk. I didn't want to engage with her because of how she had treated and humiliated me countless times, but I couldn't turn her away.I walked into the courtyard where she sat, staring into space, and I could barely recognize her. Her hair was cut short, and she looked pale—too pale—and a bit thin.I stood there for more than a minute until her eyes fell on me. Then she smiled. I couldn't tell if it was genuine, but I knew she was trying to be friendly, which didn't sit well with me. I hadn't seen her for months, and honestly, I had never thought of her after all the harm she had caused me and our family.“Eve…” she stood up, calling me by my old name. I looked back at her with a poker face that revealed no emotions. I couldn't speak, no

    Charissa povI followed him into his office, my heart pounding in my chest as I watched his broad shoulders tense. He didn’t say a word as he entered, leaving the door open just long enough for me to step through before he shut it firmly behind me. The sound of the latch clicking into place echoed in the silence, making me flinch.For a second, I stood frozen, unsure of what was about to happen. I thought he was going to yell at me. Maybe he would tell me how reckless I had been, how my actions had put us in even more danger. His silence only made it worse; the weight of it pressed down on me, making it hard to breathe.But then, before I could say a word, he turned and pulled me into his arms. His embrace caught me off guard. I stiffened, my body unsure how to respond, but his arms tightened around me, holding me close, and gradually, I melted into him. I could feel the steady rhythm of his heartbeat against my back, and it was strangely soothing. “Dominic,” I whispered, my voic

    Charissa POVIt didn’t make sense. One minute he was there, and the next, it was as though he’d evaporated into the air. All night we had searched everywhere, but there were no traces of him. I stood in the corner of Dominic’s office, disoriented, clutching the edge of the desk for support. The room spun with the weight of realization: Vincent had escaped. And worse, he was free. After all the pain and suffering he had caused it hurt knowing he was finlaly free.The pain of it twisted my chest. The bastard was out there, walking away from everything he’d done, while we were left scrambling like fools in his wake. Dominic didn’t take it well either,he never did when things spun out of his control. All night long, he’d been shouting orders, barking at his men to search every inch of the property. But it was useless. The house was upended,closets emptied, floors torn apart, drawers overturned—and still, there was no sign of him.I sat there in silence as one of Dominic’s men stepped

What makes you think I’d risk my position to help you?” she asked him.Vincent leaned against the wall, his confidence unwavering. “Because I can help *you*. You want Dominic’s attention, don’t you?

    Vincent moved with calculated precision the moment the gun went off in his hand. His body slipped into the darkness, quick and silent, as the sound of footsteps thundered down the hall. He pressed himself against the cold stonewall of the cells corridor, eyes sharp, watching as Dominic and his men sprinted past him, guns drawn and rage palpable in the air. The chaos his gunshot had caused was his opening, and he wasn’t about to waste it. Yet he knew this place like the back of his hand. He’d grown up within these walls, surrounded by secrets, blood, and betrayal. He understood the mansion’s defenses better than anyone. The guards, the locks, the escape routes,Dominic had fortified it over the years, making it nearly impenetrable. Escaping unnoticed would be impossible. But Vincent didn’t plan to slip out the gate unnoticed. He smirked to himself, the gun still warm in his grip. If he couldn’t run, he’d make himself a problem Dominic couldn’t ignore. He moved through the shadows

    I pulled up in front of Dominic’s gate, my hands gripping the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white. My heart was hammering in my chest as I glanced at the dashboard clock. How long has it been? An hour? Two? I couldn’t think straight. All I knew was she’d left home and I knew so well she was coming here. A million worst-case scenarios raced through my mind. I prayed I wasn’t too late. The gate creaked open as soon as the guards saw it was me. Without hesitation, I drove in fast, tires screeching slightly as I swerved into the garage. Throwing the car into park, I jumped out and barked at one of the men standing nearby. “Wake the boss! We have a breach!” My voice was sharper than I intended, but I didn’t care. The man nodded and turned to leave, but before he could take a step, the sound of gunfire shattered the tense silence. My stomach dropped. Two gunshots.
