Bonds of the Alpha Billionaire (Maya and Alex)

-Maya’s POV-

My mind went blank. Everything, the room, the unanswered questions about the break– in, the fear for the twins, all of it just… faded. My body froze in place, stuck in a single moment, unable to react. “What…?” The word escaped my lips in

He stared back at me, his own eyes filled with a sadness that mirrored the cold dread blooming in my gut. “I have tried, Amaya,” he said, his voice thick w like genuine pain. “I really have. But it seems like no matter what I do, it will never be enough.” His words were punctuated by a ragged sigh, a sound of one building in my own chest.

“Enough for what?” I wanted to ask, the question burning a hole in my throat. But the words wouldn’t come. My brain, usually quick and sharp, felt sluggi

“I hate that I’m doing this now,” he mumbled, trailing off. He took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling rapidly. “Please stop crying,” he pleaded, his voice cracking slightly.

I hadn’t even realized the tears were already streaming down my face, hot and silent tracks etching themselves down my cheeks. Suddenly, the image o

“Why can’t you let Alex go?” he asked, his voice laced with a frustration that mirrored my own confusion.

“I don’t know,” I mumbled, the truth a bitter pill on my tongue. Why couldn’t I let him go? The answer was as elusive as ever, tangled in the messy web of

His words hung heavy in the air, a reminder of the vulnerability he’d shown me, the trust he’d placed in my hands. And here I was, failing him again.

“You told me you were falling in love with me,” he sighed the words out like a prayer, his voice dropping back down to a pained whisper. “Why? I thought completely.”

The tears were flowing freely now, a torrent of emotions I couldn’t contain. And through the blurry haze of my own misery, I saw tears welling up in his e

How had it gotten to this point? How had we, two people who cared about each other, reached such a devastating impasse?

The silence stretched, a chasm opening wider with each passing second.

His words were calm, almost clinical, a stark contrast to the storm raging inside me. But the undercurrent of hurt was unmistakable, a raw wound expose to see.

He didn’t wait for a response. With a final, lingering glance that seemed to pierce my soul, he opened the door and walked out, leaving me alone in the sterile pris

The silence that followed was deafening, a physical weight pressing down on my chest. I stood there, frozen in place, long after he had disappeared down the hallway. Tears continued to stream down my face, unchecked and relentless.

My mind raced, a chaotic jumble of thoughts and questions.
