Chapter 137

• ALYONA
• After saying my goodbyes to Olivia, I stepped out of the building, not bothering to hide the hollowness that had settled deep inside me. The air felt colder than before, like it was reminding me of the harsh reality waiting to hit me full force—I had lost my job. My first day… and I already knew I wasn’t going back.
• I stood in front of the towering glass buildings, trying to swallow the lump in my throat. To my left stood the ENAMORE tower—the place that had chewed me up and spat me out before I could even find my footing. And with it came the thought of Alexander Hunt. Ruthless. Unbothered. A man whose voice still echoed in my ears like a warning bell.
