Aurora's POV

A massive black truck was parked across the main road ahead, completely blocking our path. Its headlights were off, its presence ominous.

They were waiting for us.

“Dominic…” My voice barely came out.

“I see them,” he muttered.

The truck didn’t move. It was as if they were taunting us, waiting for us to come closer before making their next move.

Dominic’s fingers tightened around the steering wheel, his jaw clenching. For a split second, I thought he might try to ram through, but then his gaze flicked to the side—

A narrow side street.

Without warning, he twisted the wheel and veered sharply into the small road. My body slammed into the door from the sudden turn, my heart racing as we barely squeezed through the tight alleyway.

The tires skidded against the pavement as Dominic navigated through the maze of narrow streets, dodging dumpsters and parked cars. The further we went, the darker and more unfamiliar the surroundings became.

I turned in my seat, expecting to see t

    Aurora’s POVThe car tore through the darkened streets, Dominic’s grip firm on the wheel. His entire body was tense, his jaw locked, and his eyes burning with lethal focus. I could still hear the voice from the call replaying in my head—“You must die on that road tonight.”My stomach churned. Whoever was behind this wasn’t done yet.And I was right.Just as we turned onto a seemingly empty street—a black SUV screeched to a stop in front of us, blocking our path.Dominic slammed the brakes, the tires screeching against the pavement. My body lurched forward, but my seatbelt yanked me back.Then—gunfire erupted.Glass shattered as bullets ripped through the windshield. I screamed, ducking instinctively as Dominic cursed under his breath.Without hesitation, he yanked open the glove compartment, grabbing a sleek black gun.“Stay down,” he ordered, his voice deadly calm.But I barely had time to process his words before he shoved open his door and returned fire.The deafening sound of gun

    Aurora's POV Dominic exhaled, his expression unreadable. Then, finally, he nodded.The room was dimly lit, casting shadows across Dominic’s face as he sat on the edge of the bed, his injured arm resting on his lap. His shirt was already stained with blood, and the sight made my chest tighten.“You need to take that off,” I said softly, reaching for his sleeve.Dominic raised an eyebrow but didn’t protest as I carefully unbuttoned his shirt. The fabric was sticky with blood, and I had to be gentle as I peeled it away from his skin. His body tensed slightly, but he didn’t make a sound.As soon as his shirt was off, I swallowed hard.Even injured, he looked… breathtaking.His toned chest and sculpted muscles were covered in scars—some old, some new, each telling a story I wasn’t sure I wanted to know. But it was his eyes that caught me. Dominic was staring at me.There was something in his gaze—something dark, intense, undeniably captivating.I forced myself to focus. This wasn’t the ti

    Aurora’s POVThe tension in the room was suffocating as Dominic silently moved toward the door, his injured arm barely slowing him down. His sharp eyes darkened as he reached for his gun, his movements smooth, calculated.I held my breath, watching as he pressed his ear against the wooden door. Silence.Then another knock.Dominic slowly turned the doorknob, cracking the door open just enough to peek outside. His entire body remained still, his grip tightening on the gun.My heart pounded in my chest. Was it them? Had they already found us?I inched closer, straining to hear.Then I heard it—a low voice muttering something.After a moment, Dominic let out a quiet breath and shut the door.“It’s just a waiter,” he murmured, tucking the gun into the waistband of his pants. “He’s knocking on the next door.”Relief flooded me, but it was short-lived.Dominic’s face was still hard, his expression unreadable. Something still wasn’t right.I frowned. “You think someone sent him?”Dominic exh

    Aurora’s POVDominic’s words echoed in my mind as I slowly made my way up the grand staircase.A war among the Big Four families.The Maranzanos. The Valentinos. The Riccis. The DeLucas.I had heard whispers about them before, but I never thought I would be caught in the middle of their power struggles. I never thought the man I loved was one of them.My hand instinctively moved to my stomach, a protective gesture. If Dominic was in danger, that meant our child was too.The weight of everything pressed down on me, my thoughts racing, my vision blurring slightly as exhaustion washed over me. Last night has been a nightmare. The chase, the gunfire, the threats… and now, this revelation.I needed rest.I gripped the railing as I climbed the last few steps, but just as I was about to reach the hallway—My foot slipped.Everything happened so fast.A sharp gasp tore from my lips as my body lurched forward. The staircase blurred as I tumbled down, my arms flailing desperately to catch onto

And she’s looking for Aurora.”My heart stopped.Who?I pushed the door open without thinking. Dominic and Luca both turned to me, but I was already staring at Dominic, my chest rising and falling.“Who’s looking for me?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper.Dominic held my gaze for a long moment before answering.“Your mother, Aurora. She’s alive.”My breath caught in my throat as the memories rushed back—ones I had buried deep, ones too painful to remember.Tears welled in my eyes before I could stop them. I shook my head, my voice trembling as I whispered, “No… I didn’t know.”Dominic’s grip tightened slightly, grounding me, but nothing could stop the storm inside me.“My mother… she had a fight with my father,” I began, my voice cracking. “It was bad. I was just a child, but I remember the way they yelled at each oth

But this time, I wasn’t running for myself. I was running to find my daughter, Amber Raven.She was out there somewhere, and I had to get to her before Leo Levine did.I peeked around the corner, my heart pounding. The street was empty. For now.I pulled my hood lower over my face and moved quickly through the shadows, keeping to the narrow alleys. I couldn’t risk being seen. I needed a place to stay—a place where Joanne’s men wouldn’t think to look. I stopped in front of a small, rundown house at the edge of the city. The porch light flickered weakly, and the paint on the door was peeling. It had been years since I had last seen Samantha Carter, but she

Just as I finished dressing, the door opened, and Dominic stepped in.He was already dressed in a sharp black suit, exuding power and confidence. His dark eyes swept over me, his expression unreadable.“You’re going to the mall?” he asked casually, though there was an edge to his voice.I nodded, fastening my watch. “Yes. I need to get a few things.”Dominic studied me for a moment before adjusting his cufflinks. “I’m coming with you.”I f

I knew I was playing with fire. But I had no other option. I had to know.The note on the door, the names on the list, the anonymous letter, each one hinted that there was a conspiracy so much larger than I could ever have imagined. And with each piece of evidence that I gathered, the more sinister the image became. I was very angry, and sad, and I was determined. I had to find out the truth about this secret no matter what it may cost me.In the quiet of my room, with nothing but the gentle hum of my laptop and the distant noises of the city outside my window, I swore silently. I would not allow these lost voices to fade into oblivion. I would learn the truth about them, even if it meant challenging the very authorities that had controlled my life.I couldn't help but wonder if someone, quite possibly

    Dominic's POV After breakfast, I returned to the muted elegance of our home, my mind reeling from the morning's persistent ringing and stealthy whispers. I entered the dining room to find Aurora's mother standing by the window, her face serene but with an undercurrent of suppressed disapproval. Her tone was measured when she finally spoke.You got in late last night, Dominic. We had all gone to bed well before that," she said to me, her eyes searching mine for an explanation I wasn't sure I wanted, or could give.I met her eyes calmly, knowing well enough not to let sentiment get in the way of the delicate balance of our arrangements. "I had business to attend to," I replied curtly, concealing the truth behind a mask of tranquility. There was little room for explanation in our business, where every minute had its own significance.Her eyes tightened slightly as she continued, "I have to discuss something… about Joanna. She threatened last time that she would tell Leo Levine that Auro
