Thick, expectant, heavy with unspoken accusations. They were all waiting.

My father sat on the couch, posture rigid, face carved from stone. Beside him, Viviana sat quiet, composed, eeves downcast like a saint in mourning.
Kashi was there too. Mirena beside him on the loveseat, her hand resting lightly on his knee. Roc stood by the window, arms folded across his chest, jaw tight. His gaze flicking first to Sera as we entered, then to me!
Good evening.” I said quietly, in unison with Sera.
My father didn’t respond with words. He simply nodded toward the television.
Sweet Gossip Feed was playing, muted, but the ticker at the bottom screamed the headline in bold red.
DARK ALLEY CASE REOPENED AFTER FOUR YEARS SHOCKING ALLEGATIONS SURFACE
Theey’d finally managed to air it. Daylight News had refused, but Sweet Gossip had slipped through the craccks long enough for the truth to start bleeding out.
Labought we had an agreement,” my father said, voice low, rigid, cold as winter steel. “You wouldn’t reopen thick easel But you went to the director of H.O.W.L., my own friend and turned him against me?”

Chapter 619
I wasn’t supposed to be doing this, not when I was past my surgery deadline, not when every spike of anger could trigger another nosebleed, another blackout.
I led my eyes to her, trying to swallow the bitter words, but they came anyway.
“If I were you. I’d keep my mouth shut and continue hiding behind my father.”
She flinched.
“The case is open officially,” I continued, voice low, lethal. “There’s nothing I can do to stop it now. I’d rush to Feroz and tell him to watch his back if I were you.”
I glared.
She swallowed hard.
Tension rose like smoke, choking.
Then Kashi had had enough.
He rose from the couch, crossed to me in three strides and pulled me gently into his arms.
All the hatred, all the rage, dissolved the moment he touched me.
He was soft, always soft with me.
“Come here. Come,” he murmured, patting my back to ease the storm inside me.
He pulled back just enough to search my eyes.
“Snow… let’s stop all this. You hear me? Everything.”
He turned to Father.
“No matter what you say or how you put it, Snow is still the sister I know. I understand you love Viviana because she looks exactly like Mom, but that doesn’t mean she’s the one.

“Kashi!” Roc snapped from the window.
But Kashi had had enough.
“Please! I’m sick of it. Totally.”
“Don’t talk to my father like that Are you crazy?” Roc murmured, anger low, dang
Kashi glared at him, bit back whatever reply he had ready,
