"What are you holding, Vivienne?"

Lucian’s voice cut through the quiet room like a knife. He walked closer, his tall, muscular body looking completely terrifying under the dim red emergency lights.

His dark eyes were locked onto her shaking hands, which were trying to hide the glowing screen of the phone. The creepy text message felt like a heavy weight in her palm — Run before he finds out what your father did to his mother.

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH — VIVIENNE’S POV Soft morning light seeped through the tall pointed windows of the bedroom, painting the dark room in pale gold and cool blue. I opened my eyes slowly. My whole body felt tired but in a good way. But when I tried to move, I realized I could not shift at all. Lucian’s strong arm was wrapped tight around my waist, his chest pressed firmly against my back. Even after the whole night, he stayed deep inside me, keeping our bodies connected. Even in his sleep, the Scarred French Monarch would not let go. He used his own body to keep me close, like he was afraid I would disappear the moment he loosened his hold. I tilted my head back to look at his sleeping face. The dangerous leader who made everyone fear him rested his forehead on my shoulder, his dark hair messy and damp. Slowly, as if he felt me move, his gray eyes opened. The sleepy look vanished right away, replaced by his sharp, intense gaze. Instead of pulling

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH — VIVIENNE’S POV His lips hovered just one painful heartbeat away from mine. His rough breath felt hot against my skin, even with cold rain falling through the broken ceiling above us. His gray eyes were filled with wild, desperate need, ready to crash down and claim me right there in the middle of the burning ruins. But before that kiss could seal what was between us, the wall behind us shattered hard. “Boss! The west side is falling apart—the roof is going to blow! We need to leave now!” Marco’s urgent voice cut through the smoke, his face wet with sweat as he pointed to the exit. The spell broke. I did not smile at Lucian, nor did I give him a soft look. The memory of his cruel words rushed back to me, making my blood run cold. I pushed hard against his broad chest, trying to pull away from him. “Get away from me,” I said sharply, my voice low and shaking with anger. Lucian did not answer. He did not ask for my permis

  • The Disowned Heiress & The Scarred French Monarch   Chapter 31: Vivienne is Sulking

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH — VIVIENNE’S FULL POV The cold New York rain could not wash away the sharp copper scent of blood; it only coated the marble floors in a slick, slippery sheen. I never got to step into the De Vitis estate on my own terms. The moment Marco’s car neared the perimeter, Enzo’s hidden mercenaries ambushed us. Two guards seized my arms and twisted them behind my back, dragging me roughly through the grand foyer while the heels of my boots scraped harshly against polished stone. “Look what the storm dragged in,” Enzo mocked, his face flushed red from scotch as he stood at the foot of the sweeping staircase. He twirled a silver blade lazily between his fingers. Behind him, my parents were tied brutally to wooden chairs, stripped of every trace of their high-society status, covered in mud and weeping like broken, helpless beggars. Suddenly the heavy mahogany front doors did not just open. They were blown completely off their hinges. Throu

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH —VIVIENNE’S POVThe tires of the stolen truck sprayed thick mud as Lucian drove fast down the winding mountain roads. His jaw was set tight, gray eyes constantly scanning the mirrors for any sign of pursuers. In the passenger seat, Marco typed quickly on his tablet, tracking the fallout across the network.I sat in the back, the solid weight of the gold handgun resting in my lap. My gaze stayed fixed on my phone, rereading the cryptic text from the restricted number:“The war has started, little bird. But the real monster isn't the uncle. Look closer at the final file on the drive.”Cool wind blew through the cracked window, but my mind stayed sharp. Whoever sent this wasn’t trying to hurt us. They were playing a high-stakes game, using me to pull strings across the whole De Vitis family.I leaned forward and touched Marco’s shoulder. "Pull up the backup of the flash drive. Open the very last file—the one we didn't get to play in th

He pulled the trigger.BANG!The warning shot tore through the door panel splitting it open. A yelp cut through the morning air from the porch and the door was kicked inward."Boss! Chill out! It’s me! Don’t shoot your own captain!"Marco stood there hands raised soaked and caked in thick mud.I let out a long breath tension leaving my chest. Lucian lowered his gun slightly but stayed firmly between me and the door his eyes blazing."Marco" he growled low. "Three seconds to explain why you didn’t knock before I put a bullet in your head.""Tried to be quiet so I wouldn’t wake the lovebirds" Marco panted wiping rain from his face as he stepped inside. "But your reflexes are still psycho. Lock up we have a huge problem."Lucian locked the splintered door jaw tight. "What happened? You were meant to lead trackers north.""I did" Marco said his usual tone gone serious.

    — THE DISOWNED HEIRESS & THE SCARRED FRENCH MONARCH —VIVIENNE’S POVThe stadium lights inside the warehouse hummed loudly, blinding us."Well, well, well," a mocking voice boomed through the speakers. "Look what the cat dragged into our trap. The rogue Don and his little hostage."Lucian immediately stepped in front of me, drawing his gun in one smooth motion. From the shadows of the crates, at least twenty well-armed mercenaries came out. Red laser sights marked Lucian’s chest. Standing in the middle of them was Enzo, his uncle’s right-hand man, smiling like a hungry vulture.Lucian didn't look back at me, but his left arm reached behind him, wrapping tightly around my waist to pull me close against his back."Stay behind me, little bird," he growled."I told you, Lucian," I whispered, raising my gold gun over his shoulder. "We do this together. I'm not running."Enzo sneered, raising his hand. "Kill the Don. Take the girl alive."Before a single trigger could be pulled, the entire
