Caspian glanced at the window once more, his eyes scanning the space behind the glass. He held his breath, making sure Alaric’s shadow was truly gone. Only when he was certainly did he turn his attention back to Cassandra, who lay beneath him, her face flushed and her breath coming in short, uneven gasps.

With a deliberate slowness, Caspian tugged at the crop top of Cassandra’s cheerleader uniform. The fabric slid upward, revealing the smooth, reddened skin beneath.

He knew Cassandra looked stunning in the uniform, but that wasn’t the main reason he hesitated to undress her completely. He couldn’t bring himself to expose her fully—not when Alaric might still be lurking nearby.

Cassandra’s body was his alone, and no one else deserved to witness its beauty.

Now, confident that no prying eyes remained, Caspian let go of his restraint. His hands moved quickly, stripping away Cassandra’s skirt and the black bra that cupped her full breasts. The fabric fell away, and the sight of her bare

    Selene sat on the cold apartment floor, her entire body trembling violently. Her breaths came in short, ragged gasps, her chest rising and falling in an uneven rhythm. Tears streamed down her face, but it wasn’t just from the pain.This wasn’t just about the physical wounds—it was the humiliation, the utter destruction of her pride.With great effort, she took a deep breath, trying to push past the searing pain that gripped her body. Her hands trembled as they ghosted over her skin—each bruise, each mark a cruel reminder of Alaric’s brutality. She clutched at the torn fabric of her dress, which barely covered her, and with unsteady steps, she forced herself toward the bedroom.Standing in front of the mirror, she stared at her reflection. Swollen eyes, a split lip, her skin still red from Alaric’s slap. Tears dripped down her cheeks, but beneath the anguish, something darker took root—rage.Did Alaric really think he could walk away just like that?That he could hurt her, humiliate he

    Caspian was smiling wider than he ever had in his entire life. It wasn’t just a polite or practiced smile—it was something genuine, something that came straight from his heart. Today was the day he had been waiting for. The day he would finally marry Cassandra.The grand ballroom was bathed in the warm glow of crystal chandeliers, their golden light reflecting off the polished marble floors. The scent of roses and lilies mixed with the crisp aroma of champagne being poured into delicate crystal glasses. Guests moved about, dressed in their finest attire, murmuring to one another with excitement—some in celebration, others in hushed whispers of intrigue.Many still found it hard to believe just how happy Caspian looked tonight. For years, he had been known as a man of cold precision, unreadable and untouchable. But tonight? He looked like someone who had just won everything.In one corner of the room, Damian stood casually, one hand tucked into his pocket while the other held a glass o

    Caspian leaned back in his chair, his head pounding from the storm of emotions still raging inside him. His sharp eyes stared blankly ahead, but his mind was flooded with the chaos from earlier.As a father, he should be rushing to the police station to secure his son’s release. But at the same time, the fury burning within him refused to fade.Why today?On what should have been the happiest day of his life, Alaric had turned it into a disaster.And yet, beneath all the anger, Caspian was still a father. He couldn’t simply ignore this. He needed to uncover the truth.Had Alaric really committed such crimes?Was his son truly that monstrous?If this was nothing more than a baseless accusation, Caspian would use every ounce of his power to free Alaric.He would make sure that anyone who dared to wrongfully imprison his son paid the price.But if Alaric was truly guilty… Caspian wouldn’t intervene. He would let the law take its course. Let Alaric face the full weight of his actions.The

    Cassandra was lounging on the sofa when the sound of footsteps echoed at the doorway. She turned her head, slightly surprised to see Caspian back so soon.“You're back already?” she asked, sitting up. “What about Alaric?”Caspian shrugged off his jacket with an effortless motion before settling beside her. “Alaric was proven guilty. I have no intention of helping him walk free. He deserves to face the consequences of his actions.”Cassandra studied him in silence. The sharp confidence in his eyes remained, but there was a subtle weariness beneath it—not regret, though. He was certain of his decision.She moved closer, resting her hand gently over his. “Are you okay? I mean, aren’t you worried this scandal will taint the Verity family name?”Caspian turned to her and gave a small, amused smile.“Why would I put my family's reputation above justice?” His gaze locked onto hers. “Don’t forget—you’re part of the Verity family now, too. And to me, protecting a name isn’t as important as hol

    Alaric sat in the metal chair, his cuffed hands resting on the cold surface of the interrogation table. His jaw clenched as he glared at Selene, who sat across from him with her legs elegantly crossed, her eyes gleaming with triumph.“Get me out of here first, and we’ll get married next month.”Selene let out a quiet chuckle, her gaze sharp with calculation. “Next month?” She shook her head slowly, leaning back in her chair. “No, darling. That’s too long.”Her piercing eyes locked onto his.“If you want to walk free now, then we’re getting married presently.”Alaric’s fists clenched. This woman was insane.“Do you think marriage is as simple as flipping a switch?!” He shot her a sharp glare, barely able to process the absurdity of what she was saying.But Selene remained composed. She leaned in slightly, the corners of her lips curling into a sly smile. “We don’t need a grand wedding, Alaric. The only thing that matters is making it legal.

    “Who was at the door?”Cassandra stepped into the living room, her hair still slightly damp, carrying the fresh scent of soap after her shower. Her eyes scanned the room, but all she found was Caspian standing casually near the sofa.“Alaric and Selene,” Caspian replied flatly, his tone void of interest. “But they're gone now.”Cassandra frowned. Why did they suddenly show up? However, before she could ask further, Caspian had already pulled her into his arms.He lowered his head, inhaling the lingering fragrance of soap on Cassandra’s skin. His eyes fluttered shut for a moment, savoring her scent as if she were an addiction, he could never escape.“Why did you finish your shower so quickly?” Caspian murmured, his voice deep and slightly hoarse. “I was planning to join you.”He buried his face in the curve of her neck, his lips brushing against her soft skin, leaving a trail of warmth that sent shivers down Cassandra’s spine. But before the moment could escalate, something suddenly cr

    A light drizzle coated the streets, soaking the asphalt as cars rushed by, their headlights reflecting against the wet pavement in a dance of flickering light.Beneath the glow of an electronic billboard broadcasting her latest scandal, Selene stood motionless, her body weak, her eyes swollen from the storm she had endured.Her phone screen remained open in her trembling hands, displaying the medical diagnosis that had shattered her world.Her entire body shook, not just from the cold rain, but from the relentless downfall of her life.Alaric had already destroyed her dignity. Now, her own body was betraying her, as if it wanted to surrender before she could even fight back.Selene slowly lifted her gaze, staring up at the massive billboard replaying footage of her disgrace.Her throat tightened as memories of that night in the Maldives flooded back.

    A glass flew through the air before shattering against the marble floor with an ear-splitting crash. Water spilled between the jagged shards, but Selene didn’t care.Her eyes were glued to the television screen, her face flushed with rage boiling inside her.There she was again—plastered all over the media. But not as the elegant, high-class socialite she once was.The news dominating every outlet was nothing short of a nightmare.“The marital turmoil of Alaric Verity and Selene reaches new heights!

    The night sky hung dark and heavy as Alaric strolled into his house, his steps casual, his grip firm on the wrist of a woman he had just met at the bar. The woman looked pleased, as if she had successfully trapped her prey.“I thought you were lying when you said you were a CEO with a big house,” she teased, her sultry voice dripping with false admiration as her eyes swept over the luxurious interior. “Turns out, you really are an impressive man.”Alaric smirked arrogantly, his ego swelling at the cheap flattery.“Of course, I am.”The woman bit her lower lip seductively, pretending to hesitate. “But are you sure? A man like you must already have a wife.”Alaric chuckled dismissively, as if the question was nothing more than a minor inconvenience.“You don’t need to worry about my wife,” he said nonchalantly. “Our marriage is just on paper. The only thing you need to focus on is satisfying me. My personal life is none of your concern.”To Alaric, Selene was never a wife—just a key to

    The air inside the room felt cold, but not because of the temperature. Cassandra stood in front of the large window, gazing at the dark, starless sky. Her hand gently caressed her growing belly. This should have been the only thing on her mind.But it wasn’t.Her thoughts drifted back to Caspian. She remembered the grim look on his face, the way his jaw clenched to suppress his anger, and the tension in his shoulders as he bore the weight of it all alone. Cassandra couldn’t just stand by and do nothing.Caspian wasn’t the type to back down easily, yet this time, he chose silence.As his wife, there was no way she could accept that. Selene and Alaric had to pay.Caspian had warned her not to interfere. She knew he was worried, and she should’ve listened. But how could she sit idly by while the people who looked down on her husband laughed in victory?Just this once, she wouldn’t obey him. Besides, she had someone on her side.A few days ago, the sky was overcast. A light drizzle patter

    Caspian sat upright in his seat, his left hand gripping the steering wheel tightly while his sharp gaze remained fixed on Alaric, who sat beside him. The air inside the car felt heavy, thick with unspoken tension hanging between them.For the countless times, Caspian felt nothing but disappointment. Alaric, it seemed, was no different from his late mother—always wanting more.“Fine.” Caspian's voice was flat, nearly devoid of emotion, yet carried an undeniable authority. “I'll buy you a house and give you a higher position in the company.”Alaric’s smug expression softened slightly.“But as for company shares, you'll get them later—after I'm dead. That will be your inheritance. Is that enough for you?” Caspian continued, his tone icy cold.A small smirk crept onto Alaric’s lips, his eyes glinting with satisfaction. He couldn’t demand more for now, but that was fine. He could wait. The house and the promotion were more than enough to cement his standing in the company without having to
