Tears clouded my vision as I watched the emergency team hurry up the stairs to Beverly's bedroom. I was on the floor next to her, my heart racing wildly. I held my breath as I saw them remove her beautiful dress, working quickly and purposefully. They started to apply white bandages to her wounds, trying desperately to stop the bleeding. I felt frozen with fear and helplessness, entirely overwhelmed by the seriousness of what was happening. I had never experienced anything so terrifying before.Amid the turmoil swirling all around me, I could hear the detective's calm voice cutting through the chaos, urgently asking, "Is she the victim? How is she doing?"The person they were referring to was my Boss who had been confirmed as a victim. I was in a state of shock and still couldn't believe my eyes."Sir, we caught her attacker, who was found sitting in his car just outside the building. He was taken into custody and then rushed to the hospital to treat injuries on his right shoulder, che

Nick smiled, his right brow arched in playful defiance as he countered. “Maybe you don’t remember because you never asked. Of course, I trust you. A woman as lovely as you with a successful business and fantastic track record—why wouldn’t I? Everyone speaks so highly of you and your capabilities.” “Thank you for your kind words and for having faith in me. But I’m quite certain I’ve asked you that question at some point during our time together these past few months,” I replied.Nick’s voice was low and smooth, laced with intrigue. As he leaned forward, escaping the shadows and letting the soft candlelight illuminate his striking features. He exuded an air of commanding masculinity, clean-shaven, his dark hair meticulously styled, every inch radiating confidence. “I’m in Paris, in the company of an exquisite woman. Who has filled my head with fantasy and romantic notions of things I haven't entertained in quite some while. Who wouldn’t want to stay here as long as they could? So,

I took a deep breath as I slammed my eyes shut tight! A tear of pain traveled down my cheek."Move away from the door," Nick said in a low, rough tone. When I heard his voice, I thought, 'I'm still alive?' I kept telling myself this was an illusion as I eased my back away from the wall and moved slowly. Nick passed yet another shaft of light from the window. We locked eyes, and again, even as tears slid down my cheeks, I seized with that sensation in my heart that somehow connected to his heart. His eyes are dark, darker than I have ever seen, but not only dark but piercing.His jawline is slightly sucked in; I can't seem to shake it. It's like when you catch a whiff of something that transports you somewhere, like a half-forgotten dream floating away. All you remember is a feeling, and all my feelings surrounding Nick are good."It isn't what you think," I said from her tight throat as I backed up into my bedroom. Once I crossed the sill of the bedroom door, he was on me in a flas

My voice shook as tears streamed down my cheeks, each drop reflecting the deep sorrow I felt inside. The words I read hit me like a sudden blow, shocking me. She lay there, utterly still and silent, her face an unsettling reminder of what was lost. No matter how loudly I called her name or how hard I cried, she remained unresponsive, caught in a world no one could reach. With a heavy heart, I turned back to my side of the room, sinking into my chair as if the weight of the world were pressing down on me. I struggled to control my emotions, stifling soft sobs as I fought to regain my composure. Each passing moment felt like an eternity, a stark reflection of the distance that now separated us. I yearned for a sign that she could hear me, that my voice mattered.The glow of my laptop beckoned me, enticing me with words that seemed to reach out, urging me to pour my heart onto the screen."My dear," I began. I have held back my feelings all these years, but now it’s time for you to unders

The Adversary Dark Prince (POV) When people notice the jagged scar on my arm, their eyes often widen with worry, and they jump to conclusions that are far from the truth. It's a common reaction, especially in a world where scars usually hint at pain or violence. But this scar tells a different story—it's not a sign of suffering; it's a symbol of something beautiful and meaningful in my life. Each curve and line of the scar represents resilience and a deep bond that has lasted through challenges, showing that not all scars are reminders of hurt. Instead, it reminds me of love and the strength I've gained along my journey.Albanian Mission: I sprint through the shadowy interior of what appears to be a long-abandoned yacht, the air thick with a musty odor and the echoes of creaking wood beneath my hurried footsteps. The sound of my breath, ragged and desperate, fills the air. My heart pounds in my chest as I catch sight of a cluster of frightened women, their bare limbs trembling and s
