"Anton, you lied to me. I shouldn't have trusted you. " Alina screamed at Anton. "Stop acting so innocent, Alina. You are not a saint." Anton growled. "Yeah, it was my fault, of course. I shouldn't have fallen for a person like you. What else can I expect after what happened years back ." She said. "Oh, stop with that topic already. That was just a misunderstanding. You are going to drag that topic all over again. " He said angrily. "Who knows if it was a misunderstanding. You took advantage of my anger towards Lucas and Natasha and proved yourself innocent. " She accused him. "You know what? I am just done with you. Do whatever you want. I don't care." He said. "As if I am going to beg you to stay. Just get the hell out of my site. I hate cheaters." She snarled at him. Lucas was watching the whole scene with his jaw dropped. He couldn't wrap his mind around the whole. He just came to get Natasha's favorite breakfast from the cafe, but he didn't expect to see Alina an

Lucas has been hanging out with Amanda behind Natasha's back. But he wasn't aware that Natasha had seen him multiple times with Alina and Amanda. She had confronted him but he didn't accept his fault. He lashed out at her instead. "Lucas, you are doing wrong . You shouldn't have betrayed me. If I can betray my long-time best friend, then you have no idea what I can do to you." Natasha said and tore his picture into pieces. "I'll make you pay for this betrayal." She laughed wickedly. "Alina, are you free tonight? I was wondering if we could have dinner together. " Lucas asked over call. "Actually, I'm a bit busy. But I can take out some time for you." Alina replied. "Alright, you can go ahead with your work. I'll come and pick you up later." He said. "No, you don't have to be troubled. I'll drive there on my own. Just send me the address." She said. "Okay. I'll wait for you." He said, and the call ended. "I'll use this opportunity to make her let me in the company

Author's POV "Anton? Anton, where are you?" Alina called.'Where is he? He told me to come in this gallery and now he is nowhere. Neither he is picking up my call nor replying to my messages '"Anton? Baby, now you are scaring me..." Alina stopped as she heard a voice. She started walking towards the room from where the voice was coming. Alina heart was beating fastly in her chest like it would explode. As she entered the room, she got stilled. She saw a man tied by rope, blood was coming out of his mouth, and he was unconscious. As she moved closer to him, tears were flowing through her eyes. It was Anton. His hands were tied with rope and looked like someone beat him to death.Alina ran towards Anton. She kneeled down in front of him, trying to untie the rope. She was crying. When she was untieing the rope, she felt someone was pointing something behind her head. When she turned around, she found Lucas and Natasha, he was pointing a gun towards her forehead, and Natasha was standi

'How could I have been so foolish to believe Natasha loved me?' Lucas thought, his jaw clenched as he stared ahead, lost in his thoughts. 'I almost fell for her trap again. I forgot who she truly is a heartless manipulator. Lucas Marshall, you were this close to making the same mistake. If I hadn’t overheard her intentions, I might’ve left Amanda for her. She still has the audacity to try...'“LUCAS!”Lucas snapped out of his thoughts, startled by Amanda’s voice.“What? What happened? And why are you shouting?” He looked at her, blinking, trying to figure out what he had missed.Amanda narrowed her eyes. “What do you mean, why am I shouting? My boyfriend has been mentally checked out for the last five minutes!” Her frustration was evident.“What are you talking about? I’m sitting right here,” Lucas replied, bewildered.“Oh sure, your body’s here, but your mind? It's off somewhere far from Earth. Do you even know how many times I called your name, and you didn’t respond once?” Amanda

The soft light of dawn filtered through the cabin windows, casting a warm glow across the room. I stirred, slowly waking from one of the best nights of sleep I’d had in months. For the first time in so long, there were no nightmares, no memories of that dark future. Instead, there was only Anton’s steady breathing beside me and the warmth of his body, making me feel safe.I shifted slightly, turning to face him. He was still asleep, his features softened in the early light. A small smile tugged at my lips as I traced the lines of his jaw with my eyes, remembering how far we’d come. From misunderstanding to heartbreak, and now to this—to waking up together in a place where no one could touch us.For a brief moment, the world outside ceased to exist. There was no Lucas, no Natasha, no danger. Just us, here in this peaceful bubble. And for once, I allowed myself to fully indulge in that feeling.Anton stirred, his eyes fluttering open. When his gaze met mine, a slow smile spread across h
