Shattered Vows Chapter 16~ Don’t Flatter Yourself
It was market day, as usual. We were supposed to sell the fruits today. But there was a problem. Evans wasn't feeling well, and Jack was nowhere to be seen. Good—now he knows his place. Mr. Marlow was around, his truck already filled and ready to go, and so was ours. Like I said, there was a problem. The real problem was that Liam and I had to go together. Just the two of us. I stared at the truck, dreading the thought of hours trapped in that small space with him. No distractions. No escape. Just the tension crackling between us like a live wire, ready to snap at the slightest touch. Liam didn't look thrilled either. His expression was unreadable, but his movements were stiff, controlled—like he was holding something back. Nice. Mr. Marlow glanced between us, clearly sensing the tension. "Market won't wait, you know," he said, adjusting his hat. Without a word, Liam climbed into the driver's seat. I took my time getting in, making a show of adjusting my seatbelt even though I di

I threw myself into work, pitching our fruit like it was the last thing standing between people and starvation. My voice was smooth, confident, drawing in customers with ease. Meanwhile, Liam stood there like a human statue, arms crossed, exuding silent indifference. He wasn't helping, but he wasn't exactly useless either. Because, as much as he tried to ignore them, he was attracting attention.Mostly from girls.Teenagers giggled behind their hands, stealing glances at him. Young women hovered nearby, pretending to browse while sneaking shameless looks in his direction. His presence alone was enough to pull people in, but I made sure none of them left empty-handed.If they wanted to stand there gawking, fine—but they were going to pay for it. Every lingering stare? A sale. Every whispered giggle? Another crate gone. I used their fascination to my advantage, flashing my best smile and making sure they walked away with something in their hands.And then she appeared.A brunette, dress

Without thinking I bolted. I shoved past people, weaving through the crowded market as I chased after him. He must have seen me coming because he turned sharply, slipping between stalls and vanishing behind a cart piled high with sacks of grain.Not this time.I picked up speed, ignoring the shouts of vendors as I pushed past them. The man was fast, but I was faster. I caught a glimpse of him turning down an alley, his hoodie pulled low over his face. My pulse pounded as I rounded the corner, a road stretched ahead, and the man in the hoodie was running fast. I pushed myself to go even faster, my heart pounding in my chest. Just as I was closing in, a sudden gust of wind whooshed past me. No-not wind. A person.Liam.He sped past me with astonishing speed, closing the distance in seconds. Then, with a single swift motion, he lunged at the man, tackling him to the ground. The hooded figure hit the pavement hard with a grunt, but before he could recover, Liam had him pinned against the

"There's nothing else," the man muttered, turning his face away. Liam didn't hesitate. His fist connected with the man's jaw in a brutal punch. The man gasped, doubling over. "Man, I was broke, okay?" he wheezed. "I'm a delivery driver. I was on a job that day. I—I took something from her." My blood turned cold. "What?" "It was a necklace," he admitted. I clenched my jaw. "Where is it?" "I sold it," he mumbled. Rage flooded me. "You couldn't help me, but you could rob me?" "I thought you were dead!" he argued. " I was scared of being accused of something I didn't do!" I took a step closer. "What else did you take from me?" "Nothing! I swear! Just the necklace. You had a bracelet too, but it looked old, so I left it. I only took the chain. It was pure diamond, man, I was tempted, and I needed the money... I glared at him, fists trembling. "You stole from a dying woman. And you think 'I was tempted' is a fucking excuse?" His silence was answer enough. I clenche

The world around me blurred as the weight of his words settled in my chest like a stone. A Pink Star diamond. A gem worth millions. And it had been mine. How? What if I wasn't just some innocent victim left for dead? What if I was something worse? I shook my head, trying to push the thought away, but it latched onto me, refusing to let go. A memory flickered at the edges of my mind-too faint to grasp, too distant to make sense of. My own past felt like a locked door with no key. I pressed my fingers to my temples, inhaling shakily. Searching for answers meant digging into that diamond. But did I want to? No. No, I didn't. Something inside me whispered that I wouldn't like what I found. That the truth lurking beneath the surface wasn't just painful-it was dangerous. I had been left for dead. That wasn't a coincidence. The more I thought about it, the clearer one thing became: whatever life I had before, it was filled with darkness. And if I kept pulling at this thread, I might un
Last Updated : 2025-03-25Shattered Vows Chapter 21~ But Was I Sure?
Ever since that day at the market, I hadn't been the same. Restless. Uneasy. Trapped in a battle between curiosity and fear. A part of me itched to dig deeper, to uncover who I really was. But the other—the stronger, smarter part—screamed at me to leave it alone. Because what if the truth wasn't something I could live with? What if I wasn't just a victim of circumstance but something far worse? Criminals didn't settle in one place. They didn't live peaceful, quiet lives. They hid, they ran, they disappeared. But I had been here. That should mean something, shouldn't it? I had a home here, a place where I felt safe—or at least, I had before that day. Now, I wasn't so sure. The past wasn't just a shadow lurking behind me. It was catching up. I could feel it. Every time someone came to the farm, my heart pounded, my body tensed, and I had to fight the instinct to run or attack. It wasn't normal. It wasn't me—or at least, not the me I had become. Henry had recognized me. A stranger, s

"Hey, Sara, you're back! Don't just stand there—come in. Your friend is here to see you."My friend? I nearly laughed. You mean Liam? I thought. Emilia turned to me with a broad smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement—like I was someone she actually wanted to see."Hey," she said."Hey," I replied, though I doubted she even knew my name. Then again, did I even know my own name? The thought made me chuckle bitterly.Ella wiped her hands on her apron. "I'll be right back. Let me check what's on the fire." She disappeared into the kitchen, leaving me alone with Emilia.I crossed my arms. "Why are you here?"She stared at me for a moment before answering. "I'm here because of you."I raised a brow. "Because of me?"She nodded."Why? Did I do something wrong?""No, no, nothing like that."I almost scoffed. Even I question myself these days. She fidgeted with her teacup before sighing. "I just... I wanted us to be friends.""Friends?" The word felt strange on my tongue.I narrowed my eyes

The scent of warm bread and stew filled the kitchen as I sat at the small wooden table, spooning food into my mouth. It had been a long day, and nothing beat a good meal. From the living room, the low hum of a movie played-Liam's choice, obviously, since I hadn't even been consulted. Not that I cared. I glanced toward the doorway where he was lounging on the couch, eyes locked on the screen, arms crossed like he was analyzing every frame. I smirked. "Didn't take you for the romance movie type." "I'm not," he said flatly, not even sparing me a glance. "Then why are you watching it?" "Because it keeps you from talking." I rolled my eyes, about to fire back, when the front door suddenly swung open. "Well, well, well," Greg's voice rang out dramatically. "Look who decided to run off into the sunset without us!" Greg's loud voice rang through the house as he and Trevor strolled toward us, Greg throwing his arms up like he'd just survived a war. Trevor, as usual, looked more amused

Shattered Vows Chapter 48~ Soft. Slow. Hot
The car disappeared down the road, and the silence that followed felt heavier than any words Emilia could've said. I stood there for a moment longer, arms wrapped tightly around myself, the chill creeping in through the thin fabric of my gown. Then I turned. I didn't want to see him. But I had to. My bare feet made soft sounds on the wooden stairs as I climbed, every step louder in my chest than in the hallway. When I reached the top, he was still standing there-leaning against the doorway of my room. Waiting. Watching. His eyes locked on mine, unreadable at first. But as I got closer, I could see it. The storm behind them. Rage, confusion... and something else. Something raw. Something that burned. I stopped a few feet away. "I didn't plan that," I said, voice barely above a whisper. He didn't move. "But you didn't stop it either." I swallowed hard. "It wasn't what it looked like." He let out a bitter laugh. "Really? Because from where I stood, it looked like you were enj
Shattered Vows Chapter 47~ We Were Making Love
We finally got home. Liam didn’t say a word, he just walked straight to his room. I looked around, but Ella and Evans were nowhere in sight. Maybe they were already at the farm. Judging from the freshly wiped counters and the rearranged groceries in the kitchen, they had definitely returned. I sighed, the weight of the day finally catching up with me. My body felt heavy, like I was dragging shadows behind me. I needed to stop thinking. I needed to breathe. I needed a bath. Upstairs, I headed straight to my room, undressing slowly, every movement reminding me how sore I was, mentally, physically. I stepped into the bathroom and turned the faucet, letting the water cascade down my skin. I tilted my head back, eyes closed, hoping the hot stream could somehow wash away this frustration… this tangled knot of fear and confusion sitting in my chest. I should be happy. My memories were starting to return. But the problem was… they were haunted. Sharp. Bloody. Gripping. I had a terrible fee
Shattered Vows Chapter 46~ I Needed Answers
I sat down, and the engine growled to life, and the truck rumbled forward down the empty road. But even as the motion soothed my nerves, something inside me twisted. I glanced at my hand. Bare. No wedding ring. I was married. I knew I was married. So where was it? Did I lose it in the chaos, or had I taken it off that day—the day? Maybe I didn’t wear it often. Maybe we fought. Maybe… something worse. The thought clung to me like fog I couldn’t push away.I looked up, needing a distraction, and locked eyes with Liam. His stare was steady, unsettling, as though he could see every thought running wild in my head. His expression wasn’t one I recognized: not pity, not anger, not even curiosity. It was… cautious. Evaluating. Why was he looking at me like that? A lump formed in my throat, and I quickly looked away, resting my head against the side of the truck. The moment I closed my eyes—Everything hit at once.A flash of headlights.Darkness slashed by streaks of color.And then—I was ru
Shattered Vows Chapter 45~ We Were Trapped
We kept moving through the darkness,Liam leading the way with the same relentless urgency. My mind was spinning, trying to process everything he had just told me.Drugs. Guns. Stolen art. Murder.The mansion I had admired just hours ago was nothing more than a front for a criminal empire. Emilia's family wasn't just strict, they were dangerous. And Liam and I had been right in the middle of it, oblivious to how close we had come to never making it out. A shiver crawled down my spine."How much further?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady. My throat felt dry, and my body ached from the constant running.Liam didn't answer. He was focused, scanning the trees around us like something, or someone, could jump out at any second. That wasn't comforting.I swallowed. "Liam-""Shh."My stomach dropped.Liam stopped suddenly, his arm shooting out to stop me in my tracks. His body went rigid, head tilted slightly like he was listening. The hairs on the back of my neck stood up.Then I hear
Shattered Vows Chapter 44~ You Snuck Out
Liam didn't waste a second. The moment I was up, he grabbed my wrist again and pulled me forward, keeping close to the fence as we moved. I was still trying to wrap my head around what was happening. The guards, the cars, the way Liam was acting, none of this made sense. "Who are these people?" I whispered, my voice barely audible. Liam didn't answer. He was too focused, his sharp eyes scanning every corner before taking another step. We slipped through a narrow gap between the trees, the rough bark scraping against my arm. The farther we moved from the mansion, the darker it got, the thick foliage blocking out the moonlight. Then, voices. I stiffened. Not just one or two. Multiple. Deep, authoritative tones coming from the direction of the house. I couldn't make out the words, but I could hear the weight in them. Orders. Discussions. Something serious. Liam crouched behind a large bush, pulling me down with him. His grip tightened. "Stay quiet," he whispered, his breath warm ag
Shattered Vows Chapter 43~ We Were In Danger
I woke to a light tap on my arm. "Sara, wake up," Liam's voice was low but urgent. I groaned, blinking groggily as I opened my eyes. Liam was already dressed, his face tense with something I couldn't quite place. Before I could ask why he woke me, he tossed my clothes at me. "Get dressed," he said. I sat up, frowning. The clock on the wall read 5:09 AM. Why was he waking me up this early? "Why do you wa—" "Get dressed. Now." His voice was barely above a whisper, but there was no mistaking the command in his tone. That's when I knew something was wrong. Still half-asleep, I hesitated before grabbing my clothes. "Turn around," I mumbled. To my surprise, he did so without argument. Okay, that's weird. Liam never obeyed so easily, unless something was serious. My heart rate picked up. I hurriedly put on my clothes. "I'm done," I said, staring at him, more confused than ever. Liam turned to face me, his expression unreadable. Then, in a hushed voice, he said, "You're going to do exac
Shattered Vows Chapter 42~ Tell Me To Stop
The air between us was thick, charged with something neither of us wanted to name. I shifted under the blanket, but every move made me more aware of him, of his scent, the warmth of his body just inches away. I could hear his breathing, steady but deeper now, like he was trying just as hard as I was to ignore whatever was happening between us. "Stop moving," Liam muttered, his voice husky in the darkness. "I'm not moving," I shot back, but even I could hear how unconvincing I sounded. He let out a low chuckle, and I felt the bed shift as he turned toward me. My pulse jumped. "You're restless," he murmured. "Why?" I swallowed hard. "I'm just... not used to sharing a bed." Silence. Then, a rough whisper, closer this time. "Liar." My breath hitched. Liam moved, and suddenly I felt him, his front brushing against my back , his presence overwhelming. I knew I should turn away, put distance between us, but I didn't. I couldn't. His fingers grazed my wrist, slow, testing. "You're te
Shattered Vows Chapter 41~ I’m Not A Gentleman
The room was dim, the only light coming from the faint glow of the moon filtering through the curtains. My bare feet barely made a sound against the cold floor as I stepped out of the bathroom, clutching the towel in one hand, the thin nightgown clinging to my skin. I froze. Liam had already switched off the lights and was on the bed, his broad frame stretched out, one arm resting behind his head. His eyes were closed, his breathing even, as if he had already fallen asleep, or was at least pretending to. I hesitated, staring at him for a moment longer than I should have. He looked… different like this. Relaxed. Almost peaceful. Shaking off the ridiculous thought, I cleared my throat. “You don’t plan on sleeping on the bed, do you?” His lips twitched slightly, but he didn’t open his eyes. “Where do you want me to sleep?” “I don’t know,” I muttered, tightening my grip on the towel. “But we can’t sleep on the same bed.” That got his attention. Liam finally opened his eyes, pinning
Shattered Vows Chapter 40~ I Was Losing My Mind
The guest house was impressive, but it lacked the warmth of a lived-in space. The moment we stepped inside, I could tell it was barely used, everything was spotless, perfectly arranged, and carried that faint, unused scent. Emilia lingered by the doorway, shifting uncomfortably. "So... there's only one room available." I frowned. "Huh?" She cleared her throat. "The other rooms are, um, under renovation." I blinked. "Seriously?" Liam, as usual, remained unreadable, but I could tell he was just as unimpressed. "It's a big room," Emilia added quickly. "So you won't feel cramped or anything." She hesitated before giving me a pointed look. "Just don't... wander around, okay? My family isn't exactly fond of unexpected guests." I crossed my arms, arching a brow. "So we're basically being hidden." She winced. "That's... a harsh way to put it, but yeah." Liam exhaled through his nose, his expression giving nothing away. "It's fine." Emilia nodded, clearly relieved. "Okay. I'll have s
