The tension was palpable as Damien pulled up to his house. Damien turned the engine off and stepped out, motioning for Elizabeth to follow.

"You two need to talk, the kids are with the nanny, you guys will be alone in my apartment, please don't break anything, everything in my house is expensive and I like the way my house is." Damien said and handed Elizabeth the key to his house.

Elizabeth made her way into the house and took a deep breath as she saw Y/N standing in the living room, a bottle of wine in front of her.

Y/N drank the glass of wine all at once and looked at Elizabeth "Why? Why did you do it?"

Elizabeth swallowed hard. She knew what was coming, the question she had been dreading.

"How could you sleep with him?" Y/N's voice was sharp, like a blade slicing through the tension. "How could you do that to us? To me?"

Elizabeth's heart clenched. She had no answer that would satisfy, no words that could undo the damage. "Y/N, I—"

"How could you?" Y/N's voice cracked, her eyes narrowing with a mixture of pain and anger. "You cheated on me."

Elizabeth's guilt twisted inside her, but anger quickly replaced it. "So did you!" she fired back, her voice rising. "You hired someone! You HIRED Behati!"

Y/N's eyes blazed with fury. "That was different. That wasn't—"

"It's the same thing!" Elizabeth interrupted, her voice breaking with frustration. "You betrayed me first! How is that any different?"

Y/N stepped closer, her fists clenching as she spat out her next words. "Because I didn't love her. I didn't want her! I made a stupid mistake, she was a stranger! A YACHT GIRL—but you... you slept with LUCA. You chose MY brother! . How could you do that? I HIRED BEHATI BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T WANT TO TOUCH ME TO BEGIN WITH!"

Elizabeth's voice wavered as the weight of her guilt pressed down on her. "You think I wanted this? That I wanted to hurt you? you Think I WANTED Luca?!"

Y/N's expression hardened, her voice growing louder. "Then why did you?"

" I DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE Y/N! I DIDN'T HAVE A CHOICE OKAY? I DIDN'T WANT TO DO IT!"

" did he rape you? Did he force you to kiss him and touch him?"

" no... he didn't rape me but I..."

" THEN YOU CHEATED!" Y/N yelled and threw the wine bottle across the room.

Elizabeth's own anger flared, her frustration boiling over. "You  have NO right to judge me! you LEFT me, Y/N! You left with Behati, and you flew across the world with her!"

Y/N's jaw clenched, her voice shaking with barely contained rage. "Don't put this on me. You've been distant for months. You've been hiding things from me. We used to talk about everything, and then suddenly you're just... not there. You didn't let me in, Lizzie! There's stuff that I'm sure you are still hiding from me!"

Elizabeth's eyes filled with tears as the accusations hit harder than she'd expected. "YES! BECAUSE I CANT TALK TO YOU! Because there's is no talking to you!l

"Then talk! Talk Elizabeth! why did you lie to me? Why didn't you trust me?" Y/N's voice cracked with emotion. "We've been through so much. I fought for you. I was ready to give up everything for you, Lizzie. But you didn't give me the chance to help you."

Elizabeth couldn't hold back her tears anymore. "I was scared, Y/N! I didn't want to lose you, but I didn't know how to keep you either. And then Luca... I didn't want it, but it just... happened."

"You let it happen." Y/N's voice was cold, and Elizabeth flinched at the words. "If he didn't rape you. Then you had a choice! If it wasn't rape, you could have said no! You were supposed to talk to me! You LET MY BROTHER TOUCH YOU!"

"YOU WEREN'T THERE!" Elizabeth screamed, her voice raw. "You ran off with Behati!"

Y/N's face twisted with pain as Elizabeth's words hit home. "You fucked my brother!"

Elizabeth shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "I never meant for it to go that far... I made a mistake Y/N... it was a mistake but that doesn't mean that I don't regret it! That I don't want to fix this! Fix us!"

Y/N's voice rose again, the frustration boiling over. "THERE's NOTHING TO FIX! you don't love me anymore! Just say it, Lizzie, and we can cut this short!"

Elizabeth froze, her breath catching in her throat. The pain in Y/N's voice tore at her heart, and she couldn't stand it.

"Don't love you?" Elizabeth's voice trembled, the weight of the accusation too much to bear. "I'm fucking crazy about you, Y/N. I've always been crazy about you."

"IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE IT, OLSEN!" Y/N shouted, her fists clenched at her sides. "All I feel is you pushing me away, hiding things, lying to me! How am I supposed to feel like you love me when all you do is push me away?"

Elizabeth's whole body shook as she stepped closer, her voice shaking with emotion. "FALCONE! MY NAME IS ELIZABETH CHASE FALCONE! I'M YOUR WIFE!"

Y/N stared at her, their eyes locked in a tense, heated gaze. The room seemed to vibrate with the intensity between them. Elizabeth's heart raced, her breath coming in ragged gasps.

In a swift motion, Y/N closed the space between them, her hands grabbing Elizabeth's waist and pushing her roughly against the wall. Elizabeth's back hit the surface with a soft thud, and before she could think, Y/N's lips were on hers—desperate, furious, filled with all the emotions they had both tried to suppress.

The kiss was rough, frantic, a collision of anger, passion, and something deeper that neither of them could put into words. Elizabeth kissed her back just as fiercely, her hands tangling in Y/N's hair as they pulled each other closer, their bodies pressed tightly together.

It wasn't about fixing things, not yet. It was about needing each other in that moment, about releasing everything  that had built between them for so long.

Y/N pulled away and ripped Elizabeth shirt open before she started to kiss her neck, biting down on Elizabeth skin marking every inch of skin her lips came in contact with.

Elizabeth closed her eyes as her hands began undo Y/N belt.

Y/n Picked Lizzie up and they looked into each other's eyes for a moment before they started kissing each other again
