Trevwhere is he?Johnathan asked, his voice cold and tight

Maddox pressed his lips together. Downstairs.” 

Johnathan turned, ready to go down and finish what he’d startedbut Sierra stepped in front of him. She knew exactly what he was planning to do

Can I handle this?she asked

Johnathan gave a small nod. Sierra then turned to Maddox. Maddox, is the Treno family handing him over to us?” 

Yes,” Maddox replied quietly

Good. Then let him face the consequences of what he’s done,” Sierra said, locking eyes with Maddox. Yesterday wasn’t the first time, was it? He’s probably done things like this before. I want him properly tried.” 

If Johnathan dealt with Trev, the outcome would be brutalcrippling, even. That would serve as justice for her

But not for the others

The women Trey had hurt before never saw justice. If she let Johnathan take matters into his own. hands, she’d just be making it about herself

No. This time, she wanted fairnessfor everyone

If the Treno family didn’t interfere, Trev would receive a fair and public trial

Maddox hadn’t expected Sierra to take this route. He froze, then frowned. Are you sure?” 

He’d already prepared for Trev to be crippled by Johnathan. The man never held back. Sparing Trev’s life would already be a miracle

But this

This would send Trev to prison for years and publicly disgrace the Treno family

I’m sure.Sierra said firmly

From the moment the Treno family had chosen to protect Trev, they’d become accomplices

Maddox understood the deeper meaning behind her words. He looked at Johnathan. And you? Do you agree?” 

Sierra’s will is will,Johnathan answered calmly

He stood to leave. Just before he walked out, he hesitated. I know it’s useless, but I still want to sayI’m sorry.” 

You didn’t do anything wrong,” Sierra said, her gaze steady. You’re not the one who should be apologizing.” 

Maddox gave a bitter smile and left

He knew that after this, a rift had formed between themone that wouldn’t heal

Not because it was Trey who’d hurt her

But because of all the times they’d looked the other way. All the chances they’d had to stop him- and didn’t

Noticing the change in his mood, Draven gave Mateo a subtle look, signaling him to follow Maddox. Mateo nodded and quietly slipped out

Seeing Maddox walking in silence, Mateo couldn’t help but speak up. You’re not mad at Sierra, are you?” 

Of course not.” Maddox gave a strained smile. I feel guilty.” 

If they hadn’t kept turning a blind eye to Trev’s behavior, none of this would’ve happened

And Sierra had been right

Trev had caused plenty of trouble before. Maddox had heard thingsrumors. But the victims were strangers, and he hadn’t paid them much attention

Now, the victim was the girlfriend of his closest friend, And for the first time, the guilt hit him hard

He deserves to be punished,” Maddox said quietly

It would hurt the Treno family’s reputationbut maybe that would finally wake the others up

Relieved that Maddox held no resentment, Mateo relaxed

So what you said earlieris it true? Someone trying to drive a wedge between you and Johnathan?” 

Just 

a hunch,Maddox said

Meanwhile, upstairs, Stone and Draven were discussing the same theory with Johnathan and 

Sierra

Could it be Shane?Stone asked

It made the most sense. Shane had long been at odds with Johnathan, and the Treno and

It wouldn’t be surprising if Shane wanted to stir trouble between Johnathan and Maddox

After all, Johnathan was the undisputed heir of the Wynn familya family that held incredible sway. If they took sides, everything could shift in an instant

Shane’s been transferred. The Goodman family’s been keeping a low profile lately,Draven said, though he didn’t sound convinced

Johnathan said nothing. His mind wasn’t on politics

It was on Sierra

He kept thinking about the bite mark on her wristone she’d inflicted on herself

The pain she must’ve felt… 

Seeing Johnathan so distant, Stone and Draven didn’t linger. They knew they couldn’t stay out of this. Each of them had already decided to start their own investigation into who was really behind 

it all

Once the room was quiet again, Sierra finally said, Give me my phone. I need to tell my professor I’m taking the day off.”
