Finn didn’t even flinch. In that instant when Baron's blade had flown past him, he almost wished it had ended his
life.
But Baron hadn't finished him.
That hurt more than death itself.
“Mr. Gunn... kill me. | deserve it.”
“You do deserve it!”
Baron yanked a report from his jacket and hurled it at him.
“Read it.”
Finn's trembling hands tore open the envelope. His eyes widened, horror filling them. Then blood spurted from
his lips, but even as his body convulsed, he clutched the paper with desperate strength.
“Mr. Gunn... this isn’t real, right? Tellthis isn’t real!”
“It's real.”
Baron's voice was iron. “Phantom was pregnant. She left this behind before her mission. | was already preparing
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇta wedding for you two. But you destroyed her. You destroyed your child.”
“No!”
Finn's scream tore from his chest. His world shattered.
He had grown up without parents. He knew better than anyone the agony of being an orphan. With Phantom, he
had sworn their child would never suffer what he had. He would love that baby with everything he had.
And yet Phantom had carried his child, and he hadn’t even known.
And his choices had killed them both.
For the first time, Finn's regret drowned him completely.
Baron turned away, unable to look at him. His voice dropped low, bitter. “Even if | had slept with Natalie, it was
one night, nothing more. Did you really think I'd lose myself over that?”

Finn's bloody lips trembled. “Because of me. | knew... | knew you liked Natalie long before. If five years ago she
hadn't fallen for Jensen, if she hadn’t thrown herself away for him, you would have kept her by your side.”
“Shut up!”
Baron's fury exploded. He kicked Finn across the floor, sending him sprawling in blood.
But it wasn’t enough. He seized Finn by the collar, dragging him up, eyes burning scarlet. His words struck like
ice.
“You were my brother! | never hid anything from you. Even my feelings-I never concealed them. You betrayed
me, fine. But why involve Natalie? Do you know that if you hadn't exposed my feelings, she might never have—"
“She would have!”
Finn's roar was broken, his eyes wild.
“Mr. Gunn, even if | hadn't exposed you, Natalie's fate was sealed. From the moment she fell for Jensen, that
fickle bastard, she was doomed. She gave everything for him—that’s what killed her! Even without me, even
without outside enemies, Sharon would have burned her alive anyway. That was her destiny!
“Phantom died because of her! My woman, my child-gone because of her stupidity! Tellwhy, Mr. Gunn. Why
do you love such a foolish woman? Why risk your life for her again and again? My brothers, my woman, my child
are all dead because of her. Don’t | have the right to hate her? To wish her torn to pieces?”
His voice broke into a guttural howl, like a beast trapped in its own cage.
Baron's eyes froze cold. “So you sent Yvonne to the National Hotel-one, to reveal Phantom’s true cause of death,
and two, to push her into helping you kill Natalie?”
“Yes!”
Finn's voice was venom.
“Because of Natalie, you've lost yourself. Because of her, my woman and child are gone. | want her dead! Once
she’s gone, my hatred will rest, and you'll return to what you were—the ruthless, untouchable king. Even if | fall,
you'll still have your empire. Natalie is your weakness. With her alive, anyone can control you.”
Baron's lips curved into something that wasn’t quite a smile. His tone was calm, steady, but every word crashed
like thunder.

“No one controls me. What exists is my own choice.
“Finn, are you truly that blind-or just lying to yourself?”
Finn's bloodied face twisted. “Mr. Gunn... what are you saying?”

“I'm saying you're deluding yourself. |, Baron, have the power to protect my woman, my children, and even my
brothers. You simply couldn’t stand that you weren't my equal. That's why your heart betrayed you.”
