#131 "Don't Mistake This for Trust."

Alexander's nerves were on the edge the entire flight. The plane seemed to crawl through the air, and every passing minute only amplified his anxiety. He was heading to Vegas. Sophia was in trouble, and that gnawed at him with every passing mile.The moment the wheels hit the runway, Alexander practically bolted out of the plane. He had to get to Vegas, had to make sure Sophia was okay. The airport hustle and bustle faded into a blur as he raced to meet Evelyn at the hotel.When he arrived, Evelyn was there, wearing a mix of worry and relief on her face. Next to her stood a guy with an easy confidence, the kind that usually comes from being close to someone important. Sandro, introduced him, Kyle's cousin, the one who'd been hanging around with Sophia lately.Alexander's jaw clenched at the mention of Kyle's cousin. Jealousy, sharp and unexpected, twisted in his gut. He tried to push it down and focus on the situation at hand, but it lingered like an unwelcome g

#132 "Even if it's the Last Thing I Do in this World."

Alexander had reached the designated meeting place, the weight of the suitcase containing the ransom money making his palms sweaty. Gripping it so tightly that his knuckles turned white, determination etched across his face, he was resolved to leave with Sophia unharmed.The sight of a dilapidated building in the middle of the desert didn't surprise him; it fit the cliché of an abandoned warehouse. A wry smile played on Alexander's lips as he approached the ominous structure with decisive steps.Two guards stationed at the entrance greeted him, weapons raised in suspicion. Alexander, fully aware of the tense situation, raised his hands in surrender, a gesture signaling he posed no threat."Who are you?" the first guard barked."I'm Sandro's man. I've come to pay w

#133 "I Want You to Listen to Me Now." 

Evelyn drummed her fingers anxiously on the car's dashboard, her eyes darting to her wristwatch every ten seconds. "Please calm down, Alexander will handle it," Sandro muttered, slightly nervous, after another tap on the dashboard. "It's been twenty-five minutes, I can't calm down. Where are they?" Evelyn asked, biting her lip. "I guess they're negotiating," Sandro replied under his breath. "For what? They stated their conditions, we fulfilled them, they should have already left," commented Evelyn. "We haven't fulfilled them exactly..." Sandro admitted. "What does that mean?" Evelyn turned to him, a sting of concern in her voice.

#134 "Please, don't leave me."

Amid the chaos, Alexander was determined to anchor Sophia in the present. He held her trembling hands firmly, the intensity of his gaze cutting through the terror that gripped her. "I want you to take a deep breath," Alexander commanded once more. Sophia, her nails inadvertently digging into his hand in terror, felt the urgency in Alexander's voice. She nodded, her breath shaky, and followed his command. As she exhaled, the blinding headlights of approaching vehicles illuminated the rain-soaked wreckage around them. The screech of tires echoed, and the driver skillfully maneuvered to avoid colliding with another car. It was a desperate attempt to elude the relentless pursuit of the police. Sophia's gasp was drowned by the chaotic symphony of rain and sirens. "Sophie,

#135 "So, You still Care about Him."

In the emergency room corridor, Sophia sat in an emotional tumult, tears cascading down her cheeks like a waterfall. Her heart echoed with prayers for Alexander's awakening, the weight of guilt and confusion bearing down on her. The fluorescent lights overhead flickered in rhythm with the uncertainty that gripped her heart. "He's engaged to Megan," Sophia muttered to herself, her eyes fixed on the ground as she replayed the events in her mind. "Why would he risk everything for me?" The question echoed in her thoughts, a puzzle with no clear solution. The bond between them was tangled, a web of shared history and unresolved feelings. She couldn't fathom why Alexander, who had moved on to a new chapter of his life, would willingly step back into this chaos. "He really

#136 "Total Chaos."

Ever since Sophia received the heart-wrenching news of Alexander being in a coma, she had become a constant presence in his hospital room. In the initial days, she bounced between moments of despair and persistent demands to the nurses and doctors, urging them to provide the best possible care. Eventually, Sophia stopped giving orders and settled into a quiet routine of staying by Alexander's bedside. Attempts by Evelyn or Sandro to persuade her away were met with temporary compliance, only for her to return after brief respites for showering or eating. Days melted away as Sophia sat next to his bed, engaged in a one-sided conversation. Whether he could hear her or not was uncertain, but she couldn't reconcile with the idea that all of this had unfolded because of her. She shared stories from her childhood and recounted lessons with Maestro Paus. Sophia remembered the promise she made to tell him about her music career the last time they were on his private j

#137 "I Want Us to Try to be Together."

Sophia entered Alexander's room, the sterile scent of the hospital surrounding her as she approached his bedside. The rhythmic beeping of the monitors provided a stark contrast to the emotional turmoil within her.  Sitting down, she found solace in the familiar space beside his hospital bed. In the past few days, it had become a habit for her to say it out loud when something was bothering her. She shared her thoughts with him incessantly. "You know, you never cease to amaze me," she murmured.  Still shocked by the recent revelation, she buried her face in her hands, attempting to find composure. Taking a deep breath, she allowed the gravity of the situation to settle. The news that Alexander had only entered into an engagement with Megan for her sake was a

#138 "Don't Do it Anymore, Alexander."

This kiss wasn't like their stolen kisses from before; this one was long-awaited, desired, and haunting. The monitor beeped louder with each beat of Alexander's racing pulse. Ignoring the cables attached to his body, he urgently tore them away and pulled Sophia onto his lap. Sophia felt intoxicated by this passionate kiss. His hands were buried in her hair, hers exploring the contours of his strong, muscular body. In an attempt to deepen the connection, Sophia pushed Alexander onto the bed, unaware of his bruised ribs. A small gasp of pain escaped him. "Oh, sorry," Sophia whispered. "Don't stop, do it again," Alexander urged, pulling her in for another kiss. Their lips met again, and Sophia couldn't suppress a moan, intensifying Alexander's desire. He nibbled on her lower lip, reclaiming her mouth. Sophia's thoughts blurred; her brain turned to jelly. Desire consumed her, and for the first time, she found herself wanting someon

#139 "All Right Then, Woo Me."

Sophia and Alexander had traveled in a taxi to Lisa's restaurant."They kidnapped me because I had decided to help them by putting them in touch with a lawyer friend of mine," Sophia explained during the ride.Alexander pulled her close, and she wearily rested her head on his shoulder."Sandro told me," Alexander remarked. "And to be honest, I wasn't at all surprised that you suggested it."Sophia smiled sweetly at him."I was going to ask you for something when we got there," Sophia continued."Anything," Alexander replied, kissing her forehead."Lisa's food is great, but this Daniel has ruined her business and driven away most of the customers," Sophia began. "I'm sure she would have been very happy if you had written something nice about the place on your social media."Alexander laughed and nodded."You didn't even have to ask me for that, Sophie," he told her gently.The taxi stopped in front of the restauran

#140 "You can't Keep Your Hands off Each Other."

Alexander and Sophia strolled back to her hotel holding hands, the air buzzed with a newfound connection. Evelyn, already at the front desk sorting out their room, couldn't contain her excitement upon seeing the couple. Her jubilant reaction was immediate.“Finally,” she exclaimed, throwing her hands in the air in triumph. "I knew, I just knew."Sophia chuckled at her friend's enthusiasm, and Alexander wrapped an arm around Sophia's waist, their shared joy evident."Look, you can't keep your hands off each other," Evelyn teased. ''I'm happy for you.''"Thank you," Sophia responded, squeezing Evelyn's hand in a friendly gesture."That went much better than I expected," Alexander sighed dramatically."Don't think I've forgiven you for the past, Alexander, but you're a good man, and I know you'll be on your best behavior this time," Evelyn declared, fixing him with a knowing look."Of course. I intend to correct all my mistakes," Alexander responded.In the midst of this camaraderie, San
