Draven stood with his back to Ayla, so when Troy turned his head, he could see her clearly.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Maybe it was because he had just thrown a punch at the person he hated most, but the anger in his chest finally eased. Troy\u2019s voice came out colder and steadier than before. \u201cAyla, I need to talk to him. Stay back.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla didn\u2019t listen to Troy.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Not until Draven spoke. \u201cWait for me in my car.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Then he added, \u201cI\u2019m done fighting.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Ayla trusted him. If Draven said he was finished, he probably was.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Draven and Troy had known each other since they were kids. More than 20 years of grudges and tangled history sat between them. The depth of their hate was something only the two of them understood. Ayla had no idea what really existed between them.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She never assumed they were fighting because of her. In fact, she was sure this had very little to do with her at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Between the two men-one was her distant, unreadable boss, and the other was her fresh-out-the- courthouse ex-husband she never wanted to see again\u2014she had no power to manage any of it. She took a steady breath and walked off to find Draven\u2019s car.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Their fight had nothing to do with her, but she was the spark that made it explode.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So, she decided to wait until Draven finished talking.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy watched Ayla follow Draven\u2019s words without hesitation. His expression turned even darker, and the hatred burning in his chest nearly burst. He gritted out, \u201cDraven, if you dare lay a hand on Ayla, I\u2019ll never let you go. Not in this lifetime!\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Compared to Troy\u2019s rage, Draven barely reacted. His face was flushed from adrenaline, but his eyes were cold, as if nothing in the world mattered to him. He stated the truth without emotion. \u201cYou two are divorced.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
The words stabbed right into Troy\u2019s sore spot. His face twisted, and he asked coldly, \u201cYou\u2019ve been waiting for this day, haven\u2019t you?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy had hated Draven since they were boys. Because of Draven, his mother was always upset. She always pushed Troy to study harder, to beat Draven, or she wouldn\u2019t even look at him kindly. His childhood held no happy memories.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Martin was supposed to be his grandfather, but he spent all his time with a bastard.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His father was even worse. He hurt Troy\u2019s mother without apology, then favored Draven, treating Troy like he was never good enough.\u00a0<\/p>\n
What had Troy ever done wrong?\u00a0<\/p>\n

He excelled at everything. No one around him ever outperformed him. But because Draven existed, Troy could never be first. Because Draven existed, he could never earn his parents\u2019 approval.\u00a0<\/p>\n
His life should have been smooth and perfect. But Draven appeared and ruined every part of it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy hated him from the bottom of his heart. Draven\u2019s existence was the reason Troy\u2019s life hurt so much.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Of course Troy could not accept Ayla being anywhere near Draven.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy now hated Ayla too. In his mind, she had played him through their entire marriage. Even if there had to be a divorce someday, it should\u2019ve been his choice, his decision to walk away. Not hers. Not like this, not so fast, not like she couldn\u2019t wait another second to leave him. She didn\u2019t have the right. Not in his world.\u00a0<\/p>\n
How could Ayla just let go of everything between them and say she was done? Troy wouldn\u2019t allow it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Only now did he realize Ayla actually had a backbone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Both of them-Ayla and Draven-were people he would never forget.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And because of that, they couldn\u2019t stay together in front of him. Not even for a moment.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy had always known Draven was an arrogant, untouchable type. As kids, no matter how Troy provoked him, pushed him, or tried to get a reaction, Draven never cared. He was nothing like a normal child-cold, detached, and emotionless.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Because Troy knew exactly what kind of person Draven was, he didn\u2019t believe for one second that Draven came here for Ayla.\u00a0<\/p>\n
That couldn\u2019t be real. He needed to ask.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He had to know.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Draven saw the hate burning in Troy\u2019s eyes. And he remembered something. Three years ago, on the beach, when he had seen Troy pull Ayla from the water.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Back then, Draven hadn\u2019t been the lucky one. But now? Luck had finally moved to his side.\u00a0<\/p>\n
He knew Troy would never believe he came because of Ayla.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But that was the truth.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Why else would he be here?\u00a0<\/p>\n
Draven tightened his grip on Troy\u2019s collar. If Ayla had been present, she would\u2019ve noticed something terrifying: his usually calm, noble eyes were filled with wild, consuming possession. No restraint. No gentleness. Just hunger. Just claim. A darkness he never showed in front of her. He didn\u2019t give Troy a way out. \u201cYou guessed it right,\u201d Draven said.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Troy froze for a second or two. Then his face twisted, and fury stormed into his eyes. His voice was low and dangerous. \u201cDraven, don\u2019t you dare touch her.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Draven let out a short, cold laugh and pushed him down harder. Veins stood out along his hand, but his face remained perfectly calm. The contrast made the moment almost violent in its beauty.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But this was who Draven really was. Ayla thought he was a good man. She had no idea he could be ruthless, calculating, and willing to do anything to get what he wanted.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She wasn\u2019t here, so this other side of him finally surfaced.\u00a0<\/p>\n
As for Troy? Draven didn\u2019t care about him at all.\u00a0<\/p>\n
