If Draven had understood his own mistakes sooner, he never would have gone through with the plan to steal Ayla’s children. Instead, he would have stayed by her side, steadfast and unwavering, giving her the comfort and security she so desperately needed.

He would have told Ayla the truth-that he loved her beyond reason, that losing her was unthinkable, and that no matter what they faced, he would be there to walk through it with her.

But he hadn’t done any of that. Instead, he had let his desperation twist into something unrecognizable. He stole Ayla’s children, and in doing so, he turned her love into hatred and understanding into suspicion.

How could he have been so blind? How could he have made such a catastrophic, unforgivable choice?

Draven could hardly stand to look at himself now.

But the children were already here. There was no way he could send them back to Troy. If he showed even a hint of weakness, Troy would seize the opportunity and never let go. Troy would crush him at the first sign of retreat.

It was Draven’s own arrogance and foolishness that had led them all to this dead end.

Max flashed Herman a wry smile. “See? Even Mr. Storm thinks I’ve made some sense.”

‘Thank you.” Draven’s usually calm eyes locked onto Max. His hand was still clenched around the broken glass, as if he wanted to grind it to dust. But flesh is only flesh-his grip just drove the shards deeper, and blood began to flow in earnest.

‘Why thank me?” Max asked, genuinely puzzled, brow furrowing.

There was something deeply unsettling about Draven’s brand of madness. The man who could hurt himself so easily was the most dangerous kind-someone who wouldn’t hesitate to hurt others, either.

fet Draven’s gratitude was genuine. Max’s words had pierced straight through his defenses.

Maybe the people around Draven were too used to following orders, too afraid to guess what he truly felt. Even if they tried, they never got it right.

But Max, as an outsider, had seen everything clearly. With a single offhand remark, he had made Draven see the real reason for Ayla’s heartbreak.

Draven owed him thanks-but he had no intention of explaining why.

He looked at Max, voice quiet but ironclad. “In ten minutes, James will call. He’ll tell you something’s happened in the family, and you’ll have to leave Silvoria and go home immediately.”

He said it almost casually, as if the blood dripping from his hand didn’t matter. But no one could ignore the raw, chilling energy in

the room.

Max could no longer keep up his charming, unbothered persona. “Are you threatening me?” he asked, voice tight.

Draven gave a bitter, self-deprecating laugh.

If, before, he had come here out of pure emotion, running on old instincts and refusing to accept Ayla and Max together, now he saw things with a new, brutal clarity.

He finally understood the root of the problem. He knew how to press on.

If he couldn’t be honest with Ayla, then from now on, he would show her all of himself-the dangerous, dark, ruthless side she’d

never seen.

Would Ayla still love him, knowing the truth?

Draven didn’t know. But he knew that if he kept hiding, he and Ayla would never have a future.

He was proud, too proud to ever confide in anyone, not even Herman.

But that habit had no place in love, no matter how much it had stuck with him.

Ayla deserved to know the real him.

And to do that, he first had to clear away every other obstacle in her life-including Max.

He looked at Max and said, “Sorry.”

The word carried no apology, only a finality that pressed down on everyone in the room.

Max, who always seemed so unflappable, was suddenly overwhelmed by Draven’s force of will.

Ten minutes later, Max got a call from James. Something had happened at home-he had no choice but to leave immediately.
