Evelina’s POV
Cassian’s words wrapped around me like a slow-burning flame.
"You’re mine now, Evelina. No more running. No more pretending."
A part of me wanted to pull away, to fight against the possessiveness in his voice.
But the rest of me—
The part that was tired of being lied to, the part that had been suffocated by my father’s secrets—
That part didn’t want to run anymore.
I stared into Cassian’s dark eyes, my pulse racing. “So what now?”
His lips curved into something sharp. Dangerous. “Now, you prove it.”
I swallowed. “Prove what?”
“That you’re really on my side.”
Something in my chest tightened. I had already walked away from my father. What more did he need from me?
Cassian must have seen the question in my eyes because his smirk faded. His expression grew unreadable, his jaw tightening just slightly.
Then—
“I need you to go back.”
I blinked. “Back?”
“To your father.”
My stomach twisted. “Cassian—”
“You said you wanted to help me.” His voice was quiet but firm. “This is how.”
I hesitated, my body tensing.
Going back meant looking my father in the eyes, pretending like nothing had changed. Pretending like I wasn’t betraying him.
Pretending like I hadn’t already chosen Cassian.
I licked my lips, my throat dry. “You want me to spy on my father.”
Cassian leaned in, his fingers brushing against my jaw, his touch featherlight but firm. “I want you to dismantle him.”
I sucked in a sharp breath.
This was dangerous.
This was insane.
But my father had destroyed Cassian’s family.
And now, Cassian wanted to destroy him in return.
I clenched my fists. “What do you need me to do?”
Cassian’s smirk was slow, wicked. “That’s my girl.”

Cassian’s POV
She was willing.
I had expected hesitation. Fear.
But instead, Evelina had met my gaze and agreed to step into the fire.
I should have questioned it.
Should have tested her loyalty before letting her into my world.
But the moment she had said the words—What do you need me to do?—
Something inside me had snapped.
She was mine now.
And I wasn’t letting her go.
I reached for her hand, curling my fingers around her wrist. “You’ll go back to your father. You’ll act like nothing happened. But you’ll watch. Listen.”
Evelina swallowed, but she didn’t pull away. “And then?”
I brushed my thumb against the inside of her wrist, feeling the rapid pulse beneath her skin.
“And then you’ll help me burn him to the ground.”
Her breath hitched. But she didn’t look away.
I smirked. “Still sure you want this, dolcezza?”
She exhaled slowly. “More than ever.”
Something dark and dangerous curled in my chest.
Evelina Devereaux had just sealed her fate.
And soon—
Her father would too.
