Chapter 266 You’re Not Alone Anymore 

Right now, Johnathan’s mind was filled with blood and violence

The image of his mother’s mangled body kept looping in his head. Every year on this day, he had to get it all outkeep punching, keep fighting, until every ounce of strength was drained from him

It was always just him. Even if no one said it, he knew how terrifying he looked when he was like this. Even his team of hardened mercenaries stayed away

He’d tear himself apart, lick his own wounds, then put on the human mask and go back to being that calm, untouchable man

But this timesomeone was telling him he wasn’t alone

He found it ridiculous

He snapped his eyes open and glared at Sierra, his voice low and dangerous

You’re gonna stay with me? Do you even know what I’m about to do?” 

Sierra shook her head. I don’t. But no matter what it is, I’m staying. Even if the ending is something neither of us can handle.” 

A few feet away, Mateo and the others exchanged looks

She’s lost it too, they thought

Johnathan let out a cold laugh. Anything? What if I’m about to kill someone? You coming then?” 

Sierra stood up, brushed off her pants, and nodded. Let’s go.” 

What the hellMateo muttered. She’s just as nuts as he is.” 

She was supposed to calm him downnot gas him up. But now it looked like the two of them were about to blow the roof off the whole damn city

Johnathan froze, eyes locked on her, his expression tangled

You even know what you’re saying?” 

Sierra looked him right in the eye

You were there for me when I needed help the most. Now that you need someoneI’m not backing down. I’m with you, Johnathan.” 

Even if you take it too far, I’m still with you

He saw it. That look in her eyes. The kind of determination that couldn’t be shaken

And just like that, the pressure in his chest cracked open. All the blood and chaos in his mind faded, replaced by quiet moments he’d shared with her. Peaceful. Real

After a long silence, he said hoarsely, You’re an idiot. All those things I did for youI barely had to lift a finger

And here she was, ready to give everything. Just plain stupid. Couldn’t even do the math

It might’ve been casy for you, but for meit saved my life, Sierra said softly, You hurt, I hurt too.” 

He’d never said a word about how much pain he was in. He never had to. She felt it

And for some reason, that made it worsewatching him suffer and not being able to take it away

Her words undid him

Johnathan jumped off the ring, eyes burning as he looked down at her

I’m ovino vrat one last chance to walk away

Chapter 266 You’re Not Alone Anymore 

I’ve already shown you everything. If you stay now, there’s no turning back

Sierra’s answer was to stand on her toes, grab his collar, and pull him into a kiss

Johnathan froze. Then he grabbed her tight, deepening the kiss until it turned messy and raw

The taste of blood filled their mouthshe didn’t even know whose it was

From a distance, the guys all silently turned and left the room

Outside the gym, Maddox glanced at his watch

That was the shortest episode yet.” 

Not even a full hour,Draven said, adjusting his glasses

Guess she’s more important than we thought,Stone muttered

I’m not worried about him anymore,Maddox said. I’m more worried about the Wynn family.” 

What do you think they’ll do?Stone asked

Mateo waved it off. Who cares? It’s out of our hands now.

But he knew one thing for sureif Mr. Wynn decided to pass the family to Jose, the Wynn family was finished. Johnathan wouldn’t take it, and there was no way he’d let Jose have it either

Maddox rubbed his temples. This is a headache.” 

While the four of them paced outside, the air inside the gym was thick enough to choke on

If it weren’t for the security cameras, Johnathan wouldn’t have stopped at just a kiss

It took him a while, but he finally stepped back, calming down

Did I scare you?he asked quietly

Sierra shook her head. She had expected this. And no, she wasn’t scared

Johnathan squeezed her hand gently

You wanna know what really happened that day?”
