Silverstein's knuckles went white around the head of the cane. The bone showed sharp under the skin. I watched the calculation move behind his eyes and knew exactly where it landed.

A loud legal fight would freeze SOT for months. I could build something new for Miguel if I had to. For him, losing SOT meant the end of the legacy he’d beaten and controlled people to protect, including me.

He wouldn’t risk it.

    I watched them get hauled toward the doors. Declan cursed the entire way. Silverstein’s voice cracked with rage that no longer had anywhere to land. No one from the branch families or the old circle of loyalists would step forward to help. I had made certain of that. Silence, or bankruptcy. They had chosen silence.When the last of them disappeared through the doorway, I turned and pulled Samantha fully into my arms. I pressed a kiss into her hair and held her until the shaking in her hands began to ease.“It’s finally over,” I whispered. “You’re safe. No one is going to bother us again.”The ride to the station felt longer than the drive out to the Hamptons. Samantha kept her hand on my thigh the whole way, thumb moving in slow, steady circles against the fabric of my pants. She didn’t push me to talk. She just stayed close enough that the heat of her palm reminded me I wasn’t walking into the next room alone.Inside the station the air smelled of cof

    Silverstein's knuckles went white around the head of the cane. The bone showed sharp under the skin. I watched the calculation move behind his eyes and knew exactly where it landed. A loud legal fight would freeze SOT for months. I could build something new for Miguel if I had to. For him, losing SOT meant the end of the legacy he’d beaten and controlled people to protect, including me.He wouldn’t risk it.Declan must have felt the same pressure, because he spoke again, voice tighter than before.“You’re bluffing. SOT becomes useless the moment this turns into a public dispute.”I gave him a slow, deliberate round of applause.“Spot on. For me it doesn’t matter. For him....” I tipped my chin toward Silverstein “....it’s an entirely different problem.”Silverstein’s jaw worked. The muscle jumped once, then again. He looked around the room like he was counting exits and options at the same time, then met Declan’s eyes. Something silent and ugly passe

  • Betrayed by my Husband, So I Took His Sister   Meeting The Root of it All.

    One sunny day, I woke her gently."Wake up sleepyhead, we're heading out."The morning light was still soft against the curtains when I leaned over and pressed a quiet kiss to her mouth. Samantha stirred under the sheets, lashes fluttering before her eyes opened. A sleepy smile curved her lips.“Where are we going?” she asked, voice low and rough with sleep.I helped her sit up, then poured water from the pitcher on the nightstand and set the glass in her hands.“Stonefield estate. In the Hamptons.”The smile faded. She looked at me over the rim of the glass, frown already forming, the kind that meant she knew this wasn’t going to end clean. She drank, let the silence hang between us for a moment, then set the glass down on her knee.“What’s the reason?”I took the glass from her, put it back on the nightstand, and closed both of my hands around hers. I squeezed once.“I need to end my father’s control over my life. I’m not surviving it anymore. I

  • Betrayed by my Husband, So I Took His Sister   SOT's Full Rebuilding.

    The plan was already moving by the time I left the conference room.I set up the virtual call with Miguel the same afternoon. The screen lit up with his office in Europe, papers stacked unevenly at the edge of the desk, the low industrial hum of a factory floor bleeding through the speakers. James sat beside me on our end, spine straight, hands resting flat on the table like he was bracing for the weight of the conversation. Samantha stayed quiet in the chair near the wall, phone face-down in her lap, eyes moving between the screen and me without interrupting.“Miguel,” I said once the connection stabilized. “This is James. He’s taking over as CEO of SOT. We’re here to lock in the collaboration between CPT and SOT.”Miguel’s gaze shifted to James first, assessing, then settled back on me. One of his brows lifted a fraction. I didn’t soften the opening.“I’m offering SOT as a third-party manufacturing company for CPT. The demand for medbots isn’t just Europe

    Morning light spilled across the kitchen table, warm on the wood and on the side of Samantha’s face as I pulled her down into my lap before she could take her own chair.I wasn’t subtle about it. I wanted her close, close enough that I could feel the shift of her breathing against my chest while I reached around her for the coffee. The ceramic was hot under my fingers. Her hair still smelled like our shampoo from the shower we’d shared earlier, and I buried my nose against the side of her neck for a second just because I could.“You’re not even pretending anymore,” she said, half laughing, half resigned as she picked up a piece of toast.“I don’t want to pretend,” I answered, and meant it. The old habit of doing everything my own quiet way had loosened. I wanted her to see it. Between bites I told her the other thing I’d already decided.“I’m going back to work.”Her body went still in my lap.“No. You’re not ready to be moving around like that

    The talk left us raw in the best way.Everything I’d kept locked down was finally out between us, and the air in the room felt different for it, thicker, warmer, charged. Samantha looked at me like she was seeing all of me at once and choosing it anyway. That alone made the heat pool low in my stomach.She moved first.Her mouth found mine, slow at first, then deeper, claiming instead of asking. I parted for her with a soft sound and felt her smile against my lips before she trailed down my jaw to my neck.“I’ve got you,” she murmured against my skin. “All of you.”Her hands worked at my clothes with steady purpose, peeling fabric away until the cool air touched bare skin and then her mouth followed. When the swell of my breasts was exposed she covered one with her mouth and sucked the nipple gently, then firmer, the wet heat of it making my back arch.“Sam-”“You’re so soft here,” she whispered, switching to the other side. “I’ve wanted this. Wanted

    The first light of dawn was just creeping in when I reached for the tent zipper, still wrapped around Claire’s warm body. One second of peace. That’s all we got. The zipper ripped open and rough hands yanked me out by my hair. I hit the dirt hard, pain exploding through my ribs. Claire screame

    I walked back into campus after a week of hell, my body covered from head to toe. Long sleeves, high collar, and pants that hid the fading bruises my father had left on my back and arms. Every step still ached a little, but I kept my face calm. The second Claire saw me in the hallway, her eyes li

    The heavy wooden doors of the Stonefield estate felt colder than usual as I pushed them open. My body was still buzzing from the afternoon with Claire, but the second I stepped into the living room, the high disappeared. My father, Silverstein Stonefield, sat in his massive leather chair lik

    My back slammed against the cold metal door of the bathroom stall as I crushed my lips against Claire’s. The kiss was hungry, almost violent, like we’d been starving for each other all morning. Her strawberry lip gloss mixed with the faint taste of coffee on her tongue. My hand was alre
