NANCY'S POV

When I woke up the next morning, sunlight was streaming through the French doors I'd forgotten to fully close after my mortifying balcony incident.

I lay there for a moment, staring at the ceiling, my resolve from last night still firmly in place.

I was going to ask Zade to train me. Really train me. Teach me how to defend myself so I'd never feel helpless again.

The decision made me feel better. More in control. Like I was finally taking some kind of action instead of just being a

    Nancy’s POVHe stood long enough to take off his pants. I watched him, still shaking from his mouth, and the sight of him hard and bare made a fresh ache roll through me. He came back to the bed and settled between my thighs, careful, one hand braced beside me so his weight stayed off my stomach. The head of his cock slid through my wetness, slow, not pushing in yet. Up. Down. A tease that made my hips lift.“Look at me, sweetheart,” he said.I did. My eyes were already wet.“I love you,” he said. “I am going to go slow. You tell me if it is too deep. You just lie there, my love. I will do the work.”“I will tell you.” I touched his face. “I want you. Please. I have wanted you all week.”“I know, baby.” He kissed me, soft, and I tasted myself on his mouth. “I have wanted you too. Every night I lay on the other side of this bed and listened to you breathe. Now I get to have you. Nice and easy.”He pushed in.One long, careful stroke. I felt every inch. The stretch. The heat. The way he

    Nancy’s POVI kissed him with all the love I had. Slow. Open. His mouth answered mine, and something in my chest let go. The unforgiveness I had been holding did not vanish like a trick. It just got small. Smaller than his hands. Smaller than the truth I had just said out loud. I felt free. The grudge dissipated. Just the love was in my heart, warm and shaky and sure.When I pulled back, I was breathing hard. Tears were on my cheeks and on his. He wiped mine with his thumb and did not wipe his own. My body was already asking for the rest. My heart had gotten there first.“Make love to me, daddy” I said.His eyes went dark. Soft at the edges. Hungry under that.“Make love to me,” I said.His eyes went dark. Soft at the edges. Hungry under that.“Your wish is my command, my love,” he said.He walked me back to the bed. He did not rush. He kissed me between steps, mouth on mine, then on my jaw, then on the place under my ear that made my knees weak. When my legs hit the mattress, he ease

    Nancy’s POVIt had been five days since we landed in New York.The city felt louder than Paris and smaller at the same time, because my father was in it. He had not put us in the mansion. He had given us one of his apartments instead, high up, with a doorman who knew his name and a view that made the street look far away. I had not expected him to let Zade stay with me. I had expected a hotel for Zade and a room in the house for me, and a fight I was too tired to have. He had not done that. He had looked at me at the airport, tired from the flight, and said we could have the place on the east side as long as the nurse came every day and I answered when he called. Zade had thanked him. My father had not thanked him back. He had only nodded, which was as close to peace as we had gotten.The nurse came in the mornings. She was calm and quick and did not ask questions that were not about the baby. Today she had checked my pressure, listened to the heartbeat, and told me the numbers were g

    Zade’s POVNancy’s father stayed in Paris for a week.He did not stay in the apartment. He took a hotel three streets away and came every morning like the place belonged to him anyway. He brought food she could keep down. Soup. Bread. Fruit she ate in small pieces at the table while he watched her hands. He walked her to the doctor and stood in the waiting room with his coat still buttoned, eyes on the door. He asked the nurse questions I would have asked if he had let me. I kept to the edges of those days. I made the tea. I checked the lock twice. I did not sit until she asked me to. His hatred was still in the room every time he looked at me. It had just learned how to be quiet. At least he had not shot me. That was the bar we were living under, and I was grateful for it in a way I did not say out loud.On the last afternoon they were in her bedroom, talking. I stayed in the living room. I could hear the low shape of their voices through the door, not the words. Hers was tired. His

    NANCY'S POV“You think I want to punish a child,” he said.“I think you want to punish him,” I said. “And you will not be able to tell the difference.”Silence. Zade did not speak. I was grateful. If he defended himself now, my father would stop hearing me.“I am not getting on a plane today,” I said again, softer. “I am not packing a bag. I am asking you to stay in Paris if you need to see that I am safe. Come to the doctor with me. Watch him make breakfast and hate every second of it. But do not take this baby’s father away because you cannot stand the sight of him. Please, Dad. I am begging you. Do not do that to us.”My voice broke on his name. I did not try to fix it. The tears were already on my face. I could feel Zade behind me, still and quiet, and I could feel my father in front of me, coat still on, the morning light making him look older than he had in the hallway.He closed his eyes for a moment. When he opened them, the anger was still there. So was something that looked

    NANCY'S POVMy father’s jaw worked. The anger was still there. So was the fear. So was the love, which was the part that made this hurt.“Then tell me what you need,” he said.I did not have a clean answer. I needed the baby safe. I needed Zade alive. I needed my father to look at me and see a woman, not a child he had failed to protect. I needed one hour where no one decided my life because they loved me too hard.The room felt too small. The gun was still on the table by the door. The breakfast plates were still out. My stomach was unsettled again, not from the baby this time, from the weight of both of them waiting for me to choose a side.“I need you to be patient with me,” I said. My voice shook, but I kept going. “I need you to stop talking about planes and bags for one hour. I need you to sit in this room and hear that I am not broken just because he is here. I am tired. I am pregnant. I am scared of what you will do. That is not the same as needing to be taken home.”My father
