Author’s POV

“You have no idea what you are stepping into, do you?” Dillon said, his voice low and taunting.

Nonetheless, the man did not flinch, “Let her go.” He said, moving closer.

Dillon glanced at the other man still holding Hannah and shifted his gaze around seeing they were overpowered. He shrugged as if it were all a game,

“Do it.” He said defeatedly.

The rest of his men exchanged puzzled gazes. They’d been with the man, working under him for a long time, and never had they seen Dillon back away from a fight.

“Did you not hear me?” Dillon sneered, shooting a cold gaze at the man still holding Hannah.

Slowly, the man’s grip on Hannah’s arm loosened, and she stumbled forward, instinctively running towards the men in black, her legs shaky but determined.

As she reached them, the man with the jet-black hair grabbed her arm gently, shielding her from Dillon and his men.

He gestured to one of his men and quickly, they rushed towards him and took Hannah to one of their trucks, guardi

    Author’s POVHannah’s breath caught in her throat as Nicolas’ words sank in, in confusion. If he didn’t save her, then who did and why? She shifted her gaze away, looking around and scratching her head in confusion. She glanced back at him, searching his face for answers. However, seeing how calm he was made her nerves flare even more.“You didn’t save me?” Hannah asked with a raised brow.“Then why are you here? What is this?” Hannah asked, a sudden fear creeping up her bones.She couldn’t trust anyone, least of all, anyone with a huge status as the Cranes.Nicolas’ expression remained composed, although there was a flicker of emotion in his eyes, a look of understanding. He raised his hands, approaching Hannah cautiously,“It’s okay Ms. Young, you don’t have to be afraid anymore. You’re safe with us.” He said assuredly.Hannah shot him a cautious yet softened gaze as Nicolas continued, “I didn’t save you,” he repeated, his tone gentler, “because it wasn’t an act of rescue, it was a

    Author’s POVNicolas’ expression hardened as he heard this. Immediately a frown appeared on his face, “Freedom?” He recoiled and scoffed.“You think freedom is an option right now Hannah?”“Ethan’s playing a bigger game than you realize. And whether you like it or not, you’re in the middle of it. Wolfe is just one piece of the puzzle.”Hannah’s expression sank defeatedly. Her eyes darted to the direction where Dillon and his men had disappeared, and she couldn’t deny the danger that Alfred Wolfe posed. However, being under Ethan’s control felt no better.“What does Ethan really want?” Hannah asked, her voice breaking with desperation. “Why won’t he just let me go? Why have I done to him to deserve all this?”A brief silence escaped between them. Nicolas hesitated for some moments, his face filled with reluctance, “There are things that Ethan hasn’t told you or wants you to know.”“What things?” Hannah recoiled instantly. “What does he want from me?”Nicolas hesitated his face tight w

    Author’s POVHannah stared at the message, her heart pounding in her chest. “I know where Lily is.” Those words shattered everything around her. Her hand shook as she held the phone. It couldn’t be real, could it? After all this time, someone finally knew where her sister was. The one person who ruined her life. The one that she had been trying to forget, but couldn’t. Nicolas noticed her change in expression. His eyes narrowed, “What’s wrong?” He asked, his tone laced with suspicion. Immediately, Hannah’s mind raced, but she couldn’t tell him, not yet. If Nicolas found out someone knew where Lily was, he would certainly tell it to Ethan and things could spiral out of control faster than she could handle. But she needed answers. She needed revenge. “Nothing,” Hannah said quickly, slipping her phone back into her pocket slowly.“Just a reminder about something.”Nicolas didn’t seem to buy it, but before he could say anything, the two men from the SUV reached them. They looked as col

    Author’s POVUpon hearing this, Hannah wanted to roll her eyes in disgust but fought back the urge to. She wanted to keep herself composed, but could not hold back the rage brewing in her, “Safe? You think you are keeping me safe?”“You practically had me kidnapped.”Seeing her resentment, Ethan's lips curled into a cold smirk. “You should be thanking me. I saved you.”“You were walking into a trap with Wolfe. His right-hand man, Dillon would have handed you over to Wolfe without hesitation. I ensured you stayed out of harm’s way and this is the thanks I get?” Ethan said and scoffed dryly. “Out of harm’s way? Or under your control?” Hannah shot back irritably. She stepped a bit closer, her eyes scanning around the room. She was driven to make this marriage work, but she also knew if she was to be Ethan’s wife and have any power in this relationship, she would have to stand up slowly against her new husband and demand more respect for herself.“You don’t care about my safety, Ethan.

    Author’s POV“Conditions?” Ethan asked, a little surprised, his eyes narrowing at Hannah’s boldness. He could not help but wonder where her sudden boldness had come from. He had expected her to bend, to follow his lead, not make demands of her own. This was absurd. Hannah seemed not as weak or easily controlled as he thought.Staring at her now, his fingers itch in irritation. He was used to being in charge, having the final say in everything, whether in his personal life or business-related, but here Hannah was, his new wife, standing her ground, and it incensed him.Hannah folded her arms with a stern look seeing how nonchalant he seemed about her request. “You’re hardly in a position to make demands, Hannah,” Ethan said with a low intimidating growl.At this moment, Hannah’s heart was pounding, but she wouldn’t let him see her fear. She knew if she was going to survive in Ethan’s world and not have him disregard her as just some girl he’s married to, she’d have to play her cards c

    Author’s POV“There’s one more thing,” Hannah said.Ethan’s smirk quickly faded away. “What now?” He asked.“If I’m marrying you, I’m going to need protection and access to your family’s resources.”Ethan almost busted in laughter as he heard her words.“What do you think this is? That you’re now a part of the family just because you’re marrying into it.” Ethan said and scoffed dryly.“That’s the deal, Ethan. Either you give me access to what I want or you can go find a wife somewhere else.” Hannah said sternly.Ethan bit his lip in agitation, sighed heavily, and gave in.“Alright then. You can have it.” Ethan said hesitantly.Hannah smiled victoriously, picked up the pen and as she tried to sign, her heart pounded in her chest. She glanced at Ethan one last time, his eyes hard and cold, waiting for her to comply, as if his life depended on it.Hannah heaved a tired sigh and in that moment, she muttered silently, “I will find you Lily, no matter what. I will make you pay for what you

He stared at her for some time and then muttered softly, “Good. I expect you to be ready for tomorrow’s event. I need you to not embarrass me or do anything stupid.”Hannah nodded, forcing herself to meet his gaze, “Of course, Ethan.”With that, he slowly released her hand and stepped back, his cold demeanor slipping back into place, “Get some rest.” He said in a tone that seemed more authoritative than concerning, then turned and walked down the hall, his footsteps echoing as he walked away.As soon as he was completely out of sight, Hannah let out a relieved breath, her hand trembling as she rubbed her wrist where his fingers had gripped her.She couldn’t let him control her l

But Hannah wasn’t giving her a choice. Slowly, she grabbed the phone and brought it to her ear. “H-Hello?” she stammered, her voice barely audible. There was a brief silence on the other end for a moment, and then a calm yet cold voice spoke. “Lily,” the man said softly, his tone dripping with satisfaction. “Did you really think you could hide from me forever?” Lily’s breath caught in her throat. She tried to speak but couldn’t form words. Her throat felt dry, and her heart raced. “Wh-what do you want?” She stuttered.The man laughed bitterly. “What I’ve always wanted, Lily,” he said. “The money you stole from me.” “I don’t have it,” Lily said quickly, her voice trembling. “I don’t have your money anymore.” The man’s tone hardened. “Well, that’s unfortunate,” he said. “Alfred won’t like hearing t

She could not imagine that she had spent years feeling so little since Lily took her boyfriend from her, but now looking at her now, all she could see was a small and uncertain girl who had no clue what she was doing. Hannah sighed heavily, the tension thick between them. “Well?” She asked, her voice sharp. “What are you doing here?”Lily hesitated, her eyes darting to the ground. It was as though she was struggling to find the right words or anything to say, but still, the words were unable to form. Frustrated, Hannah, turned on her heel to walk away.“Wait!” Lily’s voice broke through the quiet, her ton tinged with desperation and fear. “I’m here because of you.”Hannah froze mid-step, and slowly turned back, her face unreadable but her eyes hinting with curiousity. “What do you mean, ‘because of me?’” Lily moved uncomfortably, looking anywhere but at Hannah. She opened her mouth to speak, but before any words could come

Every memory of betrayal—her father’s death, Lily’s theft, and the wreckage she had left behind rushed to the surface. It was as if time had stopped, and all she could see now was the woman who had ruined everything.Her lips trembled as she tried to speak, but the hurt was so deep that she couldn’t move. For a moment, she wanted to lunge at her, she had spent years thinking about what she’d do when this moment finally came. Would she fight her?

Would she immediately turn her over to Alfred Wolfe and every other enemy Lily had made along the way?The thoughts rushed at her, tempting, but she remained rooted in place,

Someone to fill the void she left behind?”Ethan stepped closer, his face filled with confusion and a loss for words. He knew this day would come, but he didn't want to have to deal with this here. The crowd were still waiting for them, and he couldn't afford anything to seem wrong between them,“Hannah, where is this coming from? Lily was—”“Don’t,” Hannah interrupted, holding up a hand. Her voice was firm, though her heart felt like it was being ripped apart. “Don’t tell me she didn’t mean anything. Don’t insult me like that.”Ethan’s jaw tightened. “You have no idea what you’re talking about.”“Oh, don’t I?” she shot back, her voice rising. “You think I don’t see it?

Meanwhile, Ethan froze on the stage, still staring at Liam in disbelief, his face pale and his jaw tight, his shock mirroring her own. Hannah tried to wrap her head around this.
