Though she had stood tall against Maria’s threats, the weight of the moment was settling into her bones.As they stepped into Victor’s car, the silence was thick, broken only by the hum of the engine as they drove through the city. Emma stared out the window, her thoughts racing. Maria’s words played in her mind over and over, “your past is just a whisper away from becoming a very loud scream*. But it wasn’t her past that troubled her now. It was Victor’s. Something about his reaction, the anger in his eyes, made her realize he was hiding something.Victor glanced at her from the corner of his eye, his jaw clenched tightly. “Emma, you don’t need to worry about Maria. I’ll handle her.”Emma snapped out of her thoughts and turned to him, her b

Fanning the FlamesVictor and Emma left Lady Irene’s estate, the air between them charged with unspoken tension. The deal had been sealed, but the friction caused by Lady Irene’s bold flirtation and Emma’s simmering jealousy lingered like an open wound. Neither spoke as they climbed into the car that awaited them outside, the silence thick and oppressive.As the car pulled away from the estate, Victor finally broke the silence.“You handled that well,” he said, keeping his voice measured. “You saved us from giving up more than we could afford.”Emma turned her head slightly, her eyes fixed out the window. “I didn’t do it for praise,” she said coolly.Victor sighed, sensing the storm brewing beneath her calm demeanor. “Emma, what’s this really about?”She glanced at him, her eyes sharp. “What do you think it’s about, Victor?
