The wedding day arrived beneath a sky heavy with storm clouds.

Black luxury cars lined the circular driveway of the Reeves estate while armed guards patrolled every corner like soldiers preparing for battle instead of a ceremony. Inside the castle, chandeliers glowed gold against marble floors, but beneath the beauty lurked tension sharp enough to cut skin.

Everyone knew something was coming. No one knew death had already entered the building.

I stood in front of the mirror in the bridal suite,

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 11: The Awakening

    *James' POV*The penthouse suite at the harbor hotel felt like a gilded cage.I leaned against the bar, watching Oren Gallamor stand by the floor-to-ceiling windows. The city lights glittered below like false promises. She hadn’t spoken much since the escape. The weight of her mother’s recording still hung between us like smoke.“We need a plan,” she said finally, turning to me. Her voice was steady, but I could see the storm in her eyes. “Vida wants the real card. He thinks he can use it to control us both. We use that against him.”I crossed my arms, studying her. “What are you thinking?”She walked to the table and spread out a map of the city. “We leak false information. Make him believe the real card is at one of your warehouses by the docks. We set a trap. When he comes for it, we end him.”I studied the map, then her. “It’s risky. He’ll bring an army.”“I know,” she replied. “But it’s the only way to draw him out. I’ve been thinking about this since the rooftop. We use his greed

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 10: Haven Safe

    The knock on the door turned into pounding.I stood frozen in the safe room, legs still shaky from the way James had taken me on the table. The interrupted recording still echoed in my mind.~Harry Vida is your father.~James moved instantly. He pressed a hidden panel beside the bookshelf. A section of the wall slid open, revealing a narrow, dimly lit escape passage.“Move,” he said, grabbing my hand.We slipped into the corridor just as the outer door rattled violently. Harry Vida’s voice boomed through the speaker again, calm and chilling."Oh my dear daughter. Please open the door. Let’s talk like family.”We ran. The passage was narrow and cold, emergency lights casting long shadows. James led the way, gun in hand, moving with the precision of someone who had prepared for this exact nightmare. I followed close behind, silver gun ready, heart pounding.We emerged in the underground garage. James chose the fastest car , a sleek black supercar reinforced for war. The engine roared to

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 9: Daughter Of Shadow

    My heart was going to explode.The red sniper dot burned on James’s chest like a promise of death. I stood frozen on the rain-slicked rooftop, the real microSD card held over the crashing Atlantic far below. Harry Vida, the man who had just claimed to be my father, watched me with dark, possessive pride.“One wrong move,” he said softly, “and my man puts a bullet through your husband’s heart before your wedding night even begins.”James didn’t flinch. “Drop it,” he told me quietly. “If it keeps you safe, drop the fucking card.”My hand trembled. Rain mixed with tears on my face. Everything; my mother’s murder, my sale, this twisted marriage, had been orchestrated by the monster standing ten feet away.But James… James was looking at me like I was worth dying for.I made my choice.I lunged sideways, shoving James with every ounce of strength I had. We crashed hard behind the concrete pillar just as the sniper fired. The bullet sparked off the stone where he had been standing. My should

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 9: Shadow's Daughter

    The red sniper dot burned on James Reeves’ chest like a death sentence.Oren Gallamor stood frozen on the rain-slicked rooftop, the real microSD card held over the crashing Atlantic far below. Harry Vida, her father, watched her with dark, possessive pride.“One wrong move,” Vida said softly, “and my man puts a bullet through your husband’s heart before your wedding night even begins.”James didn’t flinch. “Drop it,” he told her quietly. “If it keeps you safe, drop the fucking card.”Oren’s hand trembled. Rain mixed with tears on her face. Everything had been orchestrated by the man standing ten feet away. Then lunged sideways, grabbing James’s arm with desperate strength.They crashed behind the concrete pillar just as the sniper fired. The bullet sparked off the stone where James had been standing.“Move!” James snarled, pulling her up. They ran.Bullets whizzed past as they sprinted back toward the open rooftop access. James fired behind them with deadly accuracy, dropping two of Vi

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 8: Father's Shadow

    The rooftop wind howled like a dying animal as Harry Vida lowered his gun. He smiled at me with something almost tender. “You still don’t understand, do you?” he said softly. “I didn’t just kill your mother. I created you. I am your father.”My finger froze on the trigger. Not the news I was expecting.James stood rigid beside me, rain streaming down his face, gun still trained on Vida. “What the fuck are you talking about?”Vida laughed, low and genuine. “Well, I was your mother’s lover long before your so-called father entered the picture. She got pregnant. I told her to get rid of it. She refused. So I let her keep you… as long as she stayed useful. When she started digging into my dealings with Reeves’ empire, I had to remove her. Cleanly.”I felt the world tilt violently. The gun in my hand suddenly felt impossibly heavy. “You’re my father?” I whispered.Vida’s smile widened. “Blood calls to blood, daughter. That’s why I made sure James would become obsessed with you. I needed you

    The wedding day arrived beneath a sky heavy with storm clouds.Black luxury cars lined the circular driveway of the Reeves estate while armed guards patrolled every corner like soldiers preparing for battle instead of a ceremony. Inside the castle, chandeliers glowed gold against marble floors, but beneath the beauty lurked tension sharp enough to cut skin.Everyone knew something was coming. No one knew death had already entered the building.I stood in front of the mirror in the bridal suite, staring at myself in silence.The dress was breathtaking, black silk stitched with silver embroidery that shimmered like moonlight. The long sleeves hugged my arms while the back plunged low, exposing skin like temptation itself. I looked less like a bride and more like a queen being prepared for war.Behind me, two women adjusted the train carefully before leaving without a word.The moment the door closed, my expression changed. Cold. Focused. Dangerous. I reached beneath the vanity table and

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 4: Whispers In The Dark

    Oren Gallamor didn’t speak to James for two full days.She stayed locked in the east wing, refusing meals, refusing conversation, refusing to even look at him when he came to the door. Every time she closed her eyes, she saw her mother’s face. Every time she breathed, she remembered James’s confess

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 3: Blood Money

    Harry Vida. He was a serpent in human skin, the the kind of man who smiled warmly while sliding a knife between your ribs. He lied with effortless charm, made you believe he was your ally, then pulled the rug out from under you when it benefited him most. Oren had heard her mother speak of him onc

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 2: The Devil's Bargain

    Oren Gallamor didn’t sleep.She lay in the silk sheets of the east wing suite, staring at the ceiling while the Atlantic roared against the cliffs below. Every bruise throbbed, but the real pain was deeper. It was the knowledge that her father had sold her to a man who had been hunting her for year

  • The Devil Bought Me In Silk    Chapter 1: Shadow Of The Auction

    The slap cracked across Oren Gallamor’s face with brutal force.She staggered backward. Her cheek exploded in white-hot agony. The sting was immediate and vicious. But it was nothing compared to the deeper, soul-crushing realization settling in her chest. This was not just another drunken outburst.
