Dominic POV
Aiden burst into my office, his voice filled with urgency.
"Boss, we found her!" The moment those words reached my ears, I leaped from my chair, my heart racing with hope and anxiety. It had been a year since my Ex wife vanished without a trace, leaving me in a constant state of worry and regret.
I often wished I could rewind time and be the husband I should have been, but now it felt like that chance had slipped away.
"How? When?" I demanded, my voice sharper than I intended, as I caught Aiden's gaze. His eyes sparkled with excitement, but there was also a hint of sympathy that made my heart ache.
"Where is she?" I stepped closer, gripping his shirt in a mix of desperation and fear, my body trembling with a whirlwind of emotions. His expression hinted at both good and bad news.
"We found her. She's in Russia with the Russian Don," he revealed, and I felt my face drain of color. Ivan, my fiercest rival, had my wife, and a surge of rage coursed through me.
"We need to act quickly; gather all the men and head to Russia. This is a declaration of war! I want her back with me, and I won't rest until every last one of them is gone," I shouted, slamming my fist on the table.
Aiden's expression shifted as he heard the intensity in my voice, his gaze filled with concern.
"There's more to it, Don," he said cautiously, and I felt my eyes narrow in suspicion.
"What do you mean by that?" I growled, noticing the tremor in his voice.
"She's not being mistreated, Don. She's set to become his wife. Tomorrow at noon, there's a ceremony planned, and he will marry her in front of everyone," Aiden explained, and I felt my heart drop as the reality sank in. My wife was about to marry Ivan
I knew Eve well enough to believe she wouldn't betray me like this. She was fully aware of my deep-seated hatred for him, the man who had taken everything from me my family, my peace. And now, she was choosing to marry him.
As the realization sank in, I felt a chill run through me. Was this her way of getting back at me? I knew she despised me for my past, but I couldn't just stand by and watch her unite with another man, especially not with Ivan.
Despite her feelings towards me, I had no intention of letting her slip away again, not after finally finding her after a year apart.
"Gather the men; we need to reach the wedding before it starts," I instructed Aiden, who nodded and hurried out of the office.
A few hours later, I arrived at the wedding venue, taking care to stay hidden. The Russians were preoccupied, ensuring the area was secure, blissfully unaware that my men were strategically positioned all around them.
I found myself in the midst of the crowd, observing her from afar. She was just as stunning as I remembered, her beauty captivating, and her long black hair seemed to cascade even further than before.
When the priest invited the audience to share their thoughts, I seized the moment to challenge the vows being exchanged. Ivan was taken aback by my presence, unaware that I had already dealt with his men and disrupted the wedding.
But Eve, she appeared bewildered, gazing at me as if I were a stranger. In that moment, I realized something was amiss, and I was determined to uncover the truth. Ivan recognized my authority and chose not to confront me; he understood the cowardice in doing so, especially with my men surrounding him.
