Chapter 93

Alexander POV.

The moment I left Christiana’s hospital room, my chest tightened with the fury I had been holding back. It simmered, bubbling beneath the surface, threatening to explode. I barely registered in the hallway as I walked, the smell of hospital clinging to the air, the distant sound of hospital life blurring into white noise. The only thing I could hear, feel, was the searing rage coursing through me like wildfire..

I needed to get out. I needed space.

The parking lot was quiet, the streetlights had shadows over the rows of cars. I found mine quickly and got in, slamming the door behind me, The moment I was inside, the dam broke. My fists clenched the steering wheel so tightly I could feel the grooves digging into my palms, grounding me, barely keeping me tethered to reality.

“Bianca.” Her name was a curse on my lips. I spat it out, my voice low and venomous.

How could I have been so blind? We dated for six years, yet I was too blind and stupid to see the real her. It was after the breakup, she went after my ex wife out of jealousy.

I slammed my fist against the dashboard, my breath coming out in harsh, ragged bursts. “Goddammit!” The sound of my voice filled the car, but it didn’t relieve the pressure. It wasn’t enough.

My mind flashed to Christiana, to the way she had looked in that hospital bed so fragile, so broken. I had seen fear in her eyes before, but this? This was different. She had been through something unimaginable, something that should never have happened. And it was Bianca’s fault. Bianca had sent men to kidnap the mother of my children. She had put Christiana through hell, all because of her sick obsession.

I grit my teeth, my knuckles turning white as I gripped the steering wheel tighter. The images kept flooding back.. Christiana’s tears, her trembling voice, the way her body had curled in on itself when she talked about what had happened. The fear she’d felt… that I had failed to protect her from.

I let out a bitter laugh, shaking my head. “I should’ve seen it. I should’ve known

Bianca. Of all people. Who I thought had the sweetest personality. This was beyond anything I could have imagined. She had crossed a line. no, she had obliterated it. And now, all I could see was red.

I leaned back against the seat, running a hand through my hair, trying to calm the storm inside me. But the more I thought about it, the more my anger built, coiling tighter and tighter until it felt like I would snap.

She took it too far. She won’t get away with this.

I had to be smart. I had to control the rage burning through me because if I didn’t, I knew I’d do something reckless. Something that could make things worse. But it was hard to think straight when all I wanted to do was hunt her down and make her pay for every second of pain she had caused.

I slammed the steering wheel again, harder this time. “Damn you, Bianca!” My chest heaved, my breath ragged “You’re going to regret this.”

The thought of confronting her, of seeing that smug, manipulative face when she realized she was caught… it only fueled the fire inside me. She thought she could control everything, pull the strings like some puppet master, but she had underestimated me. She had underestimated what I would do to protect my family.

I closed my eyes, trying to focus, to rein in the rage threatening to consume me. I couldn’t let it blind me. Bianca was smart. too smart to leave loose ends. But this time, she’d gone too far. She’d left a trail, and I would follow it. I would find every person involved, every bastard she’d paid, and I would make sure they all paid.

A cruel smile tugged at my lips. “You won’t see me coming, Bianca. But when I’m through with you…” I let the thought linger,
