Chapter 106

Aimee's POV

The moment Vincent stepped through the door, everything in my world clicked back into place. It was as if the universe had been holding its breath, waiting for this exact moment. The air around us felt electric, charged with emotions too powerful to name. I had spent so long denying what my heart wanted, pushing away feelings that had been growing ever since we first met, but now… now I couldn't hold back anymore.

"Vincent," I whispered, barely able to contain the tremor in my voice. He looked at me with those deep, soulful eyes, and I saw the same longing reflected back at me.

"Aimee," he murmured, taking a step closer, his voice rough with emotion. "I've missed you more than I can ever put into words."
