Aria: And I thought about it…this can’t keep happening, especially after today.

I throw myself back on the chair in front of my computer, fists almost digging holes on the edge of my desk. Dion and Aria were just sexting . Disgust churns in my stomach.

I thought sending Dion threats would be enough to scare him off, keep him away from her. It worked for a little while.

After discovering them together for the first time, I sent Dion a threatening note, but it didn’t seem to have the desired effect. As I kept a close eye on Aria , I realized that Dion was also lurking in the shadows, keeping tabs on her. It infuriated me that he had blatantly ignored my warning.

Determined to protect what was mine, I penned another even more menacing note, warning him to stay away. This time, I made it crystal clear that there would be dire consequences if he didn’t back off.

And he did—for almost two months.

But now, they’re back together. My threats were fucking useless.

Their connection seems to go deeper than I imagined.

Around midnight I got a call from one of Aria’s guards, informing me that she’d left the house.

The footage he sent me doesn’t cover the entire back property, so he wasn’t able to confirm where she went. I tapped into her phone to check her location, but it pinged at her house. Weird . I had to give up, hoping she’d only gone for a walk in her massive garden.

But when I logged into her phone this morning, I saw the text messages appearing on my screen in real time. They met last night, and he fucked her.

This is a fucking slap in the face.

The night before we’re supposed to meet for the first time, she fucks her lover boy, then sexts him mere hours before seeing me. She’s supposed to be a virgin and now, she’s sullied. Whore .

Aria will need to be told who she belongs to.

Once my ring is on her finger, my plans will be set into motion, and I can solidify my role in her family and in her life.

It’s time Aria meets her new fiancé once and for all.
