Nadine had completely lost her mind. The audacity of her, trying to force herself on Finn.

Even thinking about it made Zane’s scalp prickle and his stomach tighten. He could not believe anyone would be so reckless, so bold, as to actually try it.

Finn stood up and pressed his hand to his suit jacket. A frown furrowed his brows as he tossed the jacket onto the bed.

“Get me another room close by. And tell someone to get me a fresh set of clothes immediately.”

His voice was low and commanding, and his eyes were deep and dark. The drunk, out–of–it look he had worn before was completely gone.

Finn narrowed his eyes and glanced at the door.

The hallway was empty now. The shadows and movements that had been tangled there moments ago were gone.

Memories of what had just happened made his hands clench into fists.

He could handle his alcohol, and a few bottles from Nadine would never make him lose control. From the very beginning, her invitation had seemed strange, but he never imagined she would try something so shameless and vile.

He had agreed to attend the gathering to see if he could get her to talk about what happened a year ago.

But before he could act, Tess showed up.

Thinking about her made him wonder if he had even been drunk.

The moment she showed up, he felt more than surprise–he felt a pull in his chest, a flutter that made his heart race.

He had not expected her to come.

The moment she showed up, all his thoughts scattered. Every part of him screamed to move

closer to her.

He lowered his lashes, and his chest shook slightly with tension.

“Mr. Lock, what should we do with Nadine now?”

Zane set down the phone he had been told to call and bowed respectfully to Finn.

Finn remembered everything that had happened just moments before. He narrowed his eyes, and a sharp, chilling light flashed across his gaze–cold and dangerous.

He still could not understand why Nadine had invited him to that gathering. He had never imagined she would plan something so twisted.

The ridiculous image of what had happened replayed in his mind.

Nadine copying Tess made his skin crawl. Though born to different mothers, they bore some resemblance. Their eyes, especially, looked nearly identical. Tess’s eyes were icy now, but Nadine’s always carried a hint of vanity and greed.

He had been drunk, yes, but he was far more aware than she realized. He remembered everything that happened in the hotel. Yet when he looked into Nadine’s eyes, the small spark of desire in his mind pushed him down a path that he should never have taken. For a moment, the two of them seemed to overlap.

He knew clearly that the person in front of him was not Tess. Everything that happened afterward was only a half–real, half–acted scene.

“Release the footage.”

Finn raised his eyes and locked onto a faint, glowing speck in the ceiling.

His mind was a tangle of restless thoughts. He clenched his fists tightly.

Tess, why can’t you just trust me? I have changed. I will protect you and Layla. I will do everything I can to keep you safe.

Zane hesitated, uncertainty written clearly on his face.

“Mr. Lock, this … this might have caught you as well…‘

“Release it.”

Finn’s voice was cold, deep, and unyielding, each word dropping like a weight that could not be lifted or challenged.

Zane froze in place, then nodded stiffly. “Yes.”

Finn pressed his fingers to his brow and exhaled slowly. “You can go. Tell the guy to knock and

leave the clothes outside when he arrives.”

His voice loosened, drifting like vapor ready to vanish at any

second.

Zane felt the unusual tension radiating from him. This time he did not hesitate. He obeyed quietly and closed the door with careful movements.

The room fell silent, leaving Finn alone. He stood upright for a moment, then it felt as if every ounce of strength had been drained from him. His feet glided lightly across the soft carpet, barely touching it, as if he were floating.

After a long pause, a thin curl of smoke rose near the window.

Shadows softened the sharp lines of his handsome face, leaving only a heavy, silent loneliness wrapped tightly around him.
