All Chapters of Forced To The Billionaire: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

I gripped the knife tightly, my heartbeat steady despite the circumstances. My wrists ached from the raw burn of the rope, but I ignored it. Pain was secondary to survival. I needed to get out of here, and I needed to do it before Levi walked into whatever trap they had laid for him. The room was quiet again, but I knew it wouldn’t be for long. Livia was arrogant, but she wasn’t careless. She would have guards stationed outside, watching, waiting. Levi’s sister was another problem entirely. I had seen something flicker across her face, something almost human, but it didn’t mean I could trust her. I moved quickly, crouching as I made my way toward the door. The knife in my hand was small, barely enough to do real damage unless I struck in exactly the right place. I pressed my ear against the heavy wood, listening. Two men. Their voices were low, their conversation casual. They weren’t expecting me to escape. Good. I took a slow breath and positioned myself against the wall

I felt the weight of the silence between us, a suffocating, almost tangible force as Levi and I continued to drive through the darkened streets. The tension was thick, like the air just before a storm. I could feel it in the way his jaw clenched with each passing second, in the way his fingers tightened around the steering wheel, his knuckles growing paler with each beat of his heart. He was furious, no doubt about it. But underneath that fury, I could sense something else—a barely-contained panic, something raw, something real. It wasn’t just fear for me, though that was part of it. It was the overwhelming sense that we were standing on the edge of something we couldn’t control, something that was too big for us to fix on our own.I leaned back in the seat, my hands folded across my chest as I stared out the window, watching the city pass by in a blur of neon lights and shadows. My mind was racing, too many thoughts swirling at once, too many pieces of the puzzle still missing. I cou

I could feel the air change around us as we moved through the hallways, the tension thick, almost suffocating. The sound of my boots on the cold marble floors echoed, far too loud in the oppressive silence that surrounded us. There was no escaping the reality of the trap we had walked into. Every turn felt like we were being herded, funneled into something we couldn’t control.Levi was at my side, his presence a steadying force even as the walls seemed to close in on us. I could tell he was frustrated, his usual calm demeanor slipping as the situation unraveled. The intensity of his eyes, that sharp focus that had always been his strength, was now tinged with anger and concern. It was all so familiar, yet so different at the same time. We had been in situations like this before, but never this exposed, never this vulnerable.I glanced at him, my heart pounding in my chest, wondering how far we’d go before we hit the breaking point. "We’re too deep in," I said, my voice barely above a

I barely had time to think as the walls of the narrow hallway seemed to press in around us. The echo of our footsteps sounded so loud in my ears, like they could be heard by anyone in this building, every noise amplified in the silence that followed. The gunfire had stopped for now, replaced by the sound of men moving, quietly but deliberately, creeping in on us from every direction. The tension was palpable, thick in the air, like static before a storm. Levi was beside me, his presence unwavering, but I could feel the weight of the situation settling over him. He wasn't just worried for us—he was calculating every move, every contingency, trying to stay two steps ahead of an enemy that seemed to be everywhere.I tried to push the fear down. It didn't help. Every fiber of my being screamed for me to run, to get out, to save myself. But I couldn’t. Not when Levi was in this, not when we had come so far. The price had been too high to just walk away now."Stay close," Levi whispered, hi

The world around me was a blur of motion, flashes of light and darkness, the steady beep of machines blending with the sound of Levi’s voice. He was calling my name, his hand gripping mine tightly, but everything felt distant, as though I was floating somewhere far from him. “Eliana, stay with me,” he said, his voice strained, as though it was costing him everything to speak. I could hear the panic there, the fear, but there was something else too—something I hadn’t heard before. Something raw. His hand tightened around mine, and I tried to squeeze back, but my fingers felt heavy, sluggish. I couldn’t focus, couldn’t stay present. My body felt foreign to me, as though I was losing control of it. “Eliana,” Levi’s voice broke through again, more urgent this time. “I need you to stay with me. Just a little longer, please.”I tried to respond, but no words came. Instead, I felt the p
