Daniel's hands clenched into hard fists, but no words came.Of course, he knew.They were calling him a woman-snatcher. A familial betrayer.Fools!How was it his fault that the bastard couldn't keep his fucking girl?Adrian never deserved her.If she'd chosen the stronger man, why was he being punished?That bitch had seduced him, and he had enjoyed the attention while showing that bastard another way he could never measure up to him.How was he supposed to know that one act would come back to haunt him now?If that bitch had not sh

Caroline convinced Adrian to put the dilemma aside and get some rest after the long night and morning they'd had.“You can't help her much if you're dead on your feet,” she had insisted.Adrian only agreed when he saw how wan Seraphina's porcelain skin had become from lack of sleep.He knew Caroline wouldn't get some shut-eye either unless he agreed.So, he nodded. “You're right.”After checking in with the guards at the hospital, they headed home.Dahlia was still out cold.The only consolation he allowed himself to hold on to was the doctor's update.The monitor was still beeping strongly. Dahlia was still here. Alive.He was surprised when Seraphina decided to head home. “I can't remember what peaceful quiet feels like in that house. This seems like a perfect time to find out,” she had said with a serene smile.So, they took her home first.They didn't talk about George.Nothing was said about Helena and Vivian.No mention was made of Amanda and how dire all their consequences s

“Do you believe him?”Caroline asked as they stepped out of Gunters minutes later.“He lacks the talent to make such a story up,” Adrian responded contemplatively.“Also, the police did catch him trying to buy pain relief medicine,” Seraphina added.She was still processing how she felt being in the presence of her attacker again.For a moment, she had felt the sheer terror she felt back when she realised her car was not the safe haven she had thought it was.Then, the moment she saw the way he lay pathetically crumpled by Adrian's fist, the terror had faded.She almost felt pity for him when Carolin

Scott's gaze jerked away from her.He looked back at Adrian with false bravado.“Playing the hero, uh huh?! Nothing you can do to me that's worse than what you already did, you bastard!” The cuffs rattled against the table as he lunged across it. He hissed in frustration as the cuffs cut him short. “You got me here in the first place!”Caroline moved so fast that Scott didn't have the chance to blink.Hard hands clamped on his shoulders and slammed his back hard against the chair.She wrinkled her nose in disgust as she leaned to the level of his bulging eyes.“You think Adrian is mean? Say hello to meaner.” The deadliness of her tone was made w

Gunters Divisional Police Station descended into tense silence as the Jenkinses arrived.The D.P.O. was waiting outside to welcome them.Standing at attention behind him were officers according to their ranks.“Young master, we are glad to have you at our station. " The lanky man bowed in greeting. “It's an honour, Chief of Staff. Miss Vale.”Each address was accompanied by a slight bow.Adrian had no issue with the man, but he disliked the extra drama.“Thanks,” he said as he shook the man's hand. “But this is not necessary. I just need to verify something, and I'll be out of here.”The man looked at the ferocious-looking soldiers right behind the Jenkins.He swallowed subtly, thinking, “Far be it from me that the mighty family be offended in my jurisdiction.”“Understood, young master. I am Dexter Rohan. Everything in my station is yours to command.”“Welcome to Gunters, young master." All the officers behind him dropped into a deep bow.As Adrian's mouth tightened imperceptibly, Ca

His voice hung in the silence.The woman on the bed did not stir, nor did her puffy eyes open.The nurse was about to speak again when Caroline's glare shut her up.“You know her?” she asked Adrian cautiously.Seraphina stood quietly just behind him. Close enough to hear the break in his voice when he responded, “She's my… late aunt.”Caroline’s brow whipped up as their gazes held.She looked back at the prone figure on the bed.The woman's chest rose and fell gently, aided by the oxygen mask.The monitor she was hooked to stayed rhythmically steady.“She doesn't look dead.”“Apparently,” he muttered, a bit sternly.When he turned back to the nurse, she shrank back in automatic defence.Adrian looked like he was about to snap someone's neck, yet his stomach twisted so violently he could barely breathe.“How soon before she wakes?” he asked the nurse.“I don't know for sure. The doctor…”“Get the doctor here,” Caroline said tersely.The nurse immediately bobbed her head and bolted from
