All Chapters of Vows Of Deception : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Emma’s POVThe smell of freshly brewed coffee filled the air as I stood by the kitchen counter, staring out the window. The morning sun spilled golden light across the garden, a stark contrast to the storm brewing in my mind. Luca had been unusually calm when he returned earlier. Too calm.He’d kissed me and said all the right things, but something lingered beneath the surface. A tension he hadn’t managed to hide.I poured myself a cup of coffee, my hands steady but my thoughts swirling. Luca thought he was good at keeping secrets. Maybe he was—for other people. But not with me. Not anymore.I’d learned to read him. Every glance, every pause in his words told me something he wasn’t saying.And right now, it told me he was hiding something.I didn’t confront him immediately. That would only make him retreat further into himself. Instead, I busied myself with preparations for the day. A dinner with some of Luca’s closest allies was on the agenda, and as much as I despised the formality

Emma’s POVThe morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a soft glow across the room. I could feel Luca beside me, his steady breath against the back of my neck, but there was an unfamiliar weight in the air, a heaviness that had lingered since last night. I tried to shake it off as I slowly stirred, careful not to disturb him. There were mornings where everything felt normal, where I could pretend that I was living a fairy tale. But then there were others where the world outside Luca’s mansion and our shared space seemed far more threatening, and I couldn’t shake the sensation that something was wrong.I had never been a stranger to danger. It seemed to follow me, always lurking just out of sight. But with Luca, I thought I could find a sanctuary. Yet, there were still things I didn’t understand about him, and I couldn’t help but wonder what he was hiding. There were too many days that passed in silence between us—where I didn’t press him for answers because, deep down, I

Emma’s POVThe silence in the house felt heavier now. The kind of silence that seeps into your bones, making you ache with its weight, gnawing at the edges of every thought. I hadn’t spoken to Luca in hours, and I wasn’t sure how to begin again.I had told myself I would walk away, that I could do this. But now, standing in the quiet, empty space of the grand hallway, I felt as if I were suffocating. I needed air, I needed clarity, but it was elusive. I glanced at the staircase that led to the bedroom I shared with Luca, and for the first time, I wasn’t sure I even wanted to go up there. I wasn’t sure where I belonged anymore.The distance between us had never felt so palpable. Luca and I had always danced around each other, skirting the raw, unspoken truths that threatened to tear us apart. But now, those truths were too loud, and they were drowning me.What was I to do with the pieces of a life I had built that felt like a lie?The day had started like any other. The sunlight was ge

Emma’s POVI had always known that my life would never be simple. But I never imagined that it would spiral out of control this quickly. Standing in this mansion, surrounded by luxury, I felt more trapped than ever. Luca’s presence lingered in the air, thick with unspoken words and half-formed promises. I couldn’t shake the heaviness that weighed on me, like the walls were closing in, suffocating me.I had just found out that I was pregnant. Pregnant. The word echoed in my mind, each syllable more foreign and terrifying than the last. I didn’t know what to feel. This wasn’t a life I had imagined for myself. Not this life, not this reality, where everything I did seemed to be dictated by someone else’s choices.The silence of the room around me felt oppressive. There was so much I needed to say, so many questions I needed answers to, but Luca… Luca was just there, standing in the doorway, watching me, waiting for me to speak first. I had spent so many months avoiding this moment, tryin

**Chapter 151: Luca’s POV**The weight of her tears still lingered in the air, and the silence between us felt more profound than anything I’d ever experienced. It wasn’t the kind of silence that demanded action. No, it was different. This kind of silence didn’t need words to fill the space. It was an understanding, a delicate balance that had shifted between us in a way I couldn’t fully comprehend yet. I couldn’t explain it. I hadn’t been able to for weeks, even months. The emotions I had been burying for years had surfaced, crashing to the surface all at once, and Emma… Emma was the only one who could unravel it all. I hated it. I hated that she held so much power over me. But I couldn’t deny it. Not anymore. She was the gravity that kept me grounded, even when the storm inside me threatened to tear everything apart.I watched her from the doorway, her figure silhouetted by the pale light streaming in from the windows. The room was silent, except for the soft sound of her breath, s
