When Aurora awoke, she found herself confined to a dim cell, its darkness unrelieved by any window or light. Eamon had taken her captive, yet he had refrained from inflicting pain, instead ensuring she received sustenance through IV fluids and three daily meals, her primary constraint being the handcuffs encircling her wrists.

Aurora huddled in the cell's shadows, losing track of time. She had no appetite, the thought of food repugnant until she could lay eyes on Heath once more.

Upon his arrival for an interrogation, Eamon discovered Aurora lying on the cot, her gaze fixed on the ceiling. He settled into a chair and inquired, "Should I address you as Aurora or Olivia?"

Aurora maintained her silent vigil, eyes still on the ceiling.

With a sigh, Eamon pressed, "I've not resorted to torture. I harbor no desire to harm women. What I seek to understand is your unwavering loyalty to Heath. Why do you remain by his side?"

Drawing her knees to her chest, Aurora met Eamon's gaze. "If I divulg

    Heath paused at the door to the dimly lit room, a moment of hesitation before he pushed it open.The door swung open, and Heath and his entourage were stunned into silence.The room was starkly empty, the handcuffs on the corner wall pried open, leaving no trace of Aurora.But Heath was certain, just moments ago, he had clearly seen Aurora huddled in the corner of this very room!The only explanation was a breach in the surveillance room. The footage Heath had seen must have been from another day altogether.And Aurora? She might have left this place a long time ago."Boss..." Kieran, looking worriedly at Heath's complexion, spoke up. Despite his severe injuries that warranted bed rest, he had insisted on coming to find Aurora, who now was nowhere to be found.Heath, clenching his fists, demanded, "Who took her?"Lysander, momentarily taken aback, ventured, "Heath, you don’t suspect Eamon, do you?"Heath, his face a shade of stormy, turned back, colliding head-on with Eamon.

    Aurora was lost in a whirlwind of thoughts as Heath studied the girl before him. With her head bowed in silence, she bore none of the fearless demeanor she had within the stronghold.In the tense and quiet atmosphere, Heath's voice finally broke the silence. His slightly hoarse voice sounded unexpectedly pleasant in the night."I've just proposed. Are you planning to run away from our engagement?" he said.Aurora's foot, tracing circles on the ground, paused. She lifted her head, her gaze fixed on Heath in bewilderment, and blurted out, "What?"Heath looked into her eyes with utmost seriousness and said, "I'm merely injured, not crippled. I'll live a long life. Why run?"Kieran couldn't help but let out a snort of laughter, earning a glance from Heath. Kieran immediately silenced himself.Aurora still didn't understand. Her mind was in chaos. Wasn't Heath here to capture her? Then why bring so many people?Heath felt helpless. The girl standing foolishly before him made him wonder if

    Aurora was taken aback, turning to face Heath. With his gaze locked on hers, he pronounced every word with deep sincerity, "I love you, more than you could possibly imagine."Kieran, sitting upfront, couldn't help but cough awkwardly. The CEO sure had a knack for charming ladies! Ever since he met Aurora, it had been a non-stop barrage of sweet nothings.Aurora's cheeks flushed with warmth. She leaned into Heath's lap, burying her head in silence. Heath gently stroked her hair, patiently untangling the knots with his fingers.Gradually, Aurora drifted into a peaceful slumber, a luxury she hadn't indulged in for ages. With all matters resolved and Heath by her side, she relaxed completely, sleeping soundly.Upon their return to the base, Heath insisted on carrying Aurora back to the medical room himself. Lysander was delighted to see Aurora returned safely and teased, "Carrying the beauty back in your arms?"Heath smiled wryly, "Carried the beauty, but reopened my wound."Lysander sigh

    Lysander sighed deeply and said, "Aurora’s grandpa has passed away. Aurora came looking for you right after the funeral. After all the turmoil of these past days, we still don't know the state of affairs with the Pendletons! I've heard that the old man left all his shares to Maxwell, enough for them to oust Aurora!"Heath narrowed his eyes, his voice icy, "Who's ousting whom remains to be seen."Lysander frowned, "You're not fully healed. Rushing back now could be too much for your body."Kieran also advised, "Boss, it's better to recover fully before heading back. A few days won't make a difference."Heath nodded. Lysander gave him another look, "It's been two days. Don't you plan to meet Eamon?"Heath closed his eyes, replying, "We'll see."With a sigh, Lysander and Kieran left the hospital room.Heath leaned back on his hospital bed. It wasn't that he was unwilling to see Eamon, but he didn't know how to face him. On the matter of Aurora, their stances were too opposed. Even if Eam

    Auroralay quietly in Heath's arms, eyes closed. For the first time since her rebirth, she poured out her heart completely. From now on, she wouldn't have to live in fear, nor tiptoe around Heath, worried he might discover her secret at any moment.He had wholly accepted her, understanding every facet of her life.Aurora had thought that unraveling the mystery of her rebirth would be a tangled mess of emotions, shocking and frightening Heath. Yet, when she spoke of her rebirth, his reaction was as mild as if she were commenting on the day's catch being particularly tasty.Heath held her, his heart aching with nothing but compassion for her.His girl had traversed mountains and rivers, bridging the gap between two souls to be with him. What more could he ask for?In the quiet of the hospital room, Heath suddenly asked, cradling Aurora, "So, you really do have feelings for Dom

    Aurora sat there, honest and upright, when Lysander suddenly asked, "Aurora, did you know Heath hasn't talked to Eamon for three days now?"Aurora blinked, looking down, and said, "I didn't know."Lysander sighed, "Eamon was indeed reckless this time, but Heath saved his life. The two of them are real brothers-in-arms, with an extraordinary bond. I hope you won't hold a grudge against him."Aurora nodded without speaking, and Lysander knew continuing would only make her more upset, especially since she had risked her life for Heath while Eamon had been contemplating how to execute her.Lysander left the infirmary. Aurora looked out the window at the clear, cloudless weather and decided it was a good day for a walk.Wanting to change her clothes, she only had the tank top and long pants she'd taken off, which had been washed and returned to her. After changing, Aurora put on an overcoat from the base and stepped out in short boots.She hadn't enjoyed the sun properly for many days. Wan

    Heath looked at Aurora, a bit peeved but still with a fond gaze, and asked, "What brings you to the shooting range?"Aurora's big eyes darted around as she replied, "It's such nice weather, just out for a walk..."Heath, somewhat helpless, stared at her. "A walk from the clinic that somehow ended up at the shooting range?"Aurora squinted her eyes, smiling, her eyes curving like crescents, almost resembling a cat that got its fish treat. She tugged at Heath's sleeve, saying, "Nope! I came to find Eamon!"Heath paused, asking, "For what?"Eamon, equally baffled, watched as Aurora chuckled and said, "To tell him we're leaving, so he's gotta treat us to a meal! Right, Eamon?"Eamon awkwardly looked at Heath, nodding, "Yeah, it's been a while since we all ate together. How about we grab a meal today?"Heath looked at Aurora, who was trying to charm him, swinging his sleeve back and forth, nearly throwing herself into his arms.With a resigned look, Heath pinched the bridge of his nose and

    The day after, Lysandercaught sight of Heath and Aurora snuggled up together on a hospital bed, and couldn't help but pinch the bridge of his nose, fighting the urge to jab them both with a syringe. He silently told himself, "Don't get mad... don't get mad..." Getting angry with those two would only end up driving him nuts.These past few days, Heath and Aurora have been recuperating at the KING organization's base under Lysander's care, and they've been healing up pretty fast.Aurora was dying to see the place where Heath had lived, and finally got the okay from Eamon. With Jay tagging along, they wandered all around the KING base, getting to know every nook and cranny, even where each blade of grass was.When they were on the verge of getting moldy from all the healing, Lysander finally gave the nod for them to head back.As long as Lysander said they were okay, it meant they really were alri

  • The Billionaire's Deadly Doting Wife   The End

    The next morning, Vespera was woken up at dawn, barely getting a few hours of sleep. Known as a dedicated designer, she was usually the first one awake, but today she could barely keep her eyes open. As the stylist worked on her hair and makeup, Vespera sat half-dazed, drifting in and out, completely unaware of the hands tugging her in all directions.Two hours later, with her hair and makeup done, Vespera finally slipped into her wedding dress. The reality hit her, and for the first time, she fully realized she was about to get married.Memories flooded back, particularly that first encounter with Alaric. He’d been sprawled on the steps outside, a bit too tipsy, looking up with half-closed eyes, asking, “What’s wrong with me?” Vespera, surprising even herself, had replied, “Nothing at all.”Back then, he was just a bright, headstrong young man, carrying so many dreams and frustrations. Somewhere along the way, he’d grown into this strong, grounded man. And somehow, after everything,

    It wasn’t until a few days after their engagement that it even crossed Vespera’s mind to ask about the villa.Alaric confirmed he’d bought it, explaining that he’d thought she might like it and decided to go for it. As for renovations, he wanted to wait until she officially agreed to everything; after all, they’d eventually need their own place—living with Zane forever wasn’t exactly an option.By now, the news of Alaric and Vespera’s engagement had spread everywhere. Alaric was practically ready to announce it to the world on social media, but thankfully, Aurora stepped in, suggesting he keep things low-key since he was the company CEO. Plus, Vespera wasn’t exactly a fan of the public spotlight.Alaric reluctantly held back but couldn’t resist dropping hints in his friend group chat every other day. Heath and the rest were used to it by now—except Lysander, who constantly complained that he was drowning in a sea of "lovey-dovey vibes," being the lone single guy among them.When Auror

    The next morning, Alaric woke up, remembering last night’s events. He pinched himself—no, it wasn’t a dream. Vespera had actually said yes.He jumped out of bed, showered, changed, and even straightened his tie before driving to her studio. There she was, focused on work, wearing a stylish dress and light makeup, looking absolutely radiant.When he walked in, Vespera looked up, surprised. “Finally awake?” she asked with a smirk.Alaric simply nodded, taking her hand without a word and leading her downstairs. She stumbled after him, asking, “Where are we going?”Alaric gently nudged her into his car, driving her toward a villa. Vespera was clueless and a bit shocked, glancing around, unsure of what was happening.They finally arrived at a beautiful villa. Alaric opened the door, and she asked, “Did you just buy this?”&n

    The next morning, Alaric was finally over his fever. When Vespera woke up, he was already waiting in the living room. After breakfast, they both headed to their respective offices.Aurora’s team reported they’d successfully returned to the Whitmore family’s estate. For her, that had been a fierce battle. For Vespera, however, the real challenge lay ahead: the design competition.Ever since her last conversation with Yvonne, where Yvonne had hinted that everything she had was due to Aurora and Alaric’s support, Vespera had been determined to prove herself. She wanted to be worthy of Alaric and was pouring all her energy into this competition.After submitting her designs, Vespera anxiously waited at home for results. When the winners were finally announced online, she saw her name in second place. The relief and pride were overwhelming. She had finally achieved something worth sharing with Alaric. Now, with the award ceremony in the UK, she had no choice but to let him know.Expecting

    Vespera had reclaimed her brand, and Alaric seemed to be maturing by the day, treating her like she was his entire world. Everything seemed to be falling into place.After that showdown in Alaric’s office with Elowen, she hadn’t shown her face again. Vespera figured it was over, that Elowen had finally given up. Everyone else thought the same.But on the day they took graduation photos, Aurora disappeared. Heath and Alaric eventually tracked her down — Elowen had taken her. Vespera was frantic, blaming herself for not protecting Aurora better.Heath and Alaric couldn’t stop Aurora’s flight at the airport, so they booked tickets to the UK to get her back. Vespera had too much to handle here to join them, so she only saw Alaric off at the airport.He held her close, whispering, “Don’t worry. I’ll be back soon, and Aurora will be safe.”Vespera hugged him back tightly. She trusted him. Alaric and Heath would get this done — Elowen had crossed a line that couldn’t be ignored, and she knew

    This past week, Aurora had been tirelessly setting up to counter Evelyn and her allies, Yvonne and Elowen. Meanwhile, Alaric, working alongside Aurora to reclaim Elowen’s brand.A week later, the press conference went ahead as planned. Alaric helped Vespera pick an outfit, stayed until she’d finished her makeup, and then drove her to the venue himself.The conference, led by Evelyn, was a disaster for her team. They failed to take over Aurora’s company, couldn’t drive her out of the Pendleton family, and made no progress in placing Yvonne and Elowen as CEO and head designer. Their plans had backfired entirely.Leaving the venue, Yvonne, clearly shaken, stepped in front of a car without looking and was hit, blood pooling around her. Vespera, stunned and dizzy at the sight, would have collapsed if Alaric hadn’t steadied her.Frantically, Vespera fumbled with her phone to call home, stammering, “It’s Yvonne… she’s bleeding so much…”As someone unaccustomed to such violence, Vespera was t

    Alaric looked at Vespera with an innocent expression and said, “It’s not what you think. I’m not a creep.”“Not a creep?” Vespera glared at him. “Then what were you doing in my room?”Alaric almost groaned. “If I told you I was here to give you a massage, would you believe me?”“Total creep!” she shouted. “Sneaking into my bed while I was asleep!”Alaric shot back, “I did not! When I woke up, you were the one curled up on me!”Vespera paused, recalling the moment she woke up. Okay, maybe she had been cozying up to him. Wait a second—was he implying she was the one acting out of line?Seeing her hesitation, Alaric grinned smugly. “See? You were just as comfortable with it!”“Get out!” Vespera yelled.Alaric left the room, trying not to smile too much. Sure, nothing happened, but just getting to hold her felt amazing. Although… his shoulder was sore from her leaning on him all night, so he headed back to his room to grab a few more hours of sleep.Vespera, alone in her room, listened as

    Vespera walked ahead, casual and carefree in a T-shirt and shorts, no makeup, and even bare of high heels, while Alaric trailed close behind with a jacket in hand, grinning like a fool. Everyone in the lobby couldn’t help but notice—their usually composed CEO was tagging along, practically beaming.Catching up to her, Alaric draped his jacket over her shoulders. “How could you leave without dressing warmer? You’ll end up with a stomach ache tonight,” he said, his voice soft with affection.Vespera felt a warm flutter in her chest but stayed quiet, letting his jacket settle around her as they walked out. Alaric was thrilled she hadn’t brushed him off; emboldened, he slipped his hand into hers, wrapping her cold fingers in his.For a moment, she stiffened, then relaxed, letting her hand nestle securely in his. Together, they headed to the parking lot, Alaric practically floating with joy. This felt better than winning the lottery!Bringing her home, Alaric felt out of his depth—things h

    Alaric stood in his office, with Elowen right in front of him, her hand tugging at his tie, a faint smirk hidden beneath her slightly indignant expression.Seeing the scene, Vespera nearly turned around and left right then and there. But she reminded herself of her purpose for coming today. She was done hiding from Elowen. Even if Alaric wasn’t hers in the end, she’d be damned if he ended up with someone like Elowen.So Vespera strode into the office, fixed her gaze on them, and asked, “What’s going on here?”At the sound of her voice, Alaric spun around, fumbling to free his tie from Elowen’s grip. But Elowen held tight, glancing over at Vespera with a slight smile. “Miss Thornfield? You’re here?”Vespera closed the door behind her, gave a slight nod, and asked again, “What exactly is this about?”Elowen smirked. “Oh, it’s nothing. I just wanted to ask Alaric if I could borrow a few people to help promote my new fashion line. Not sure if he’s on board with it, though.”“Not a chance,
