Sterling acted like none of that bothered him, but she could feel the pain underneath.

“If I hadn’t come, how long were you gonna stay here?”

This place could never truly hold him, but he still chose to stay in that nightmare.

He chuckled. “Crying again, huh?”

He ignored her question.

If Claudia hadn’t shown up, he probably would’ve just sat here bleeding until the drugs faded. Maybe he’d even take out a few more pawns Paula sent.

His rough hand brushed her cheek. “Rosebud turned into such a crybaby.”

But the next second, he looked awkward.

“I made it dirty.”

Blood stained his hands. He hadn’t noticed until lightning lit up the room. It showed how he smeared it across her face, making her look like she was painted wrong.

Her clean and pretty face should never have been dirtied like that.

But Claudia shook her head.

She held his hand against her cheek, bent down, and pressed a soft kiss into his palm.

Sterling froze.

Thud!

Something slammed onto the ground.

Paula glared at the screen, watching the two hold each other closer. Her eyes burned with fury.

How could this be happening?

Sterling was supposed to get drugged.

The men she sent had barely survived when he snapped. They were dragged out, almost dead.

His crazed face and his killing intent had been like a beast gone mad.

So why hadn’t he killed Claudia?!

If Paula had known, she never would’ve let that girl near him.

She’d practically reunited them.

Paula sneered.

“Someone!” she barked, her face dark with rage.

No matter what, they won’t walk out alive tonight!

If they want to act in love, fine–then let them die together underground!

Paula no longer cared to prolong their torment. The hollow, desperate ache in her chest made her want to finish them off right away.

Just as her roar faded, the front door burst open.

She

spun around.

With thunder rumbling and lightning flashing behind them, Clint stood in the doorway beside David, the doctor he had hauled out of bed.

Behind them, bodyguards crowded in, guns hidden under their jackets. On the floor, her thugs and servants were down, groaning and begging for mercy.

Paula went pale.

From the second Claudia kissed his hand, Sterling hadn’t moved.

His eyes stayed locked on her face, soft yet stained with blood.

The storm outside kept crashing. But inside the dim room, they stood so close, just staring in silence. The air between them felt different, almost charged.

Claudia caught the meaning in his look.

“Sterling, wanna kiss?” She grinned, her eyes curving.

Sterling answered with action.

He pulled her by the waist, his other hand sliding into her wet hair as he leaned in.
