“Grandma!” Allen called, crumpling to the floor when he saw Barbara lying unconscious on the floor, as foam bubbled out of her mouth. He shook her vigorously, but she didn't wake up. He checked her pulse and saw that it was still there. He grabbed his phone from the table and called the security men in the building.

They took the lift, and in a few minutes they were at his door. They helped carry Barbara to the car park of the apartment complex, where she was put in the back seat of his car. Al

  • Blood and Buttercream   The one

    We never made it back to New York.Agent Park changed plans within hours. "Too risky. Jessica knows we'd expect you to return. She'll be ready. Waiting. We need to relocate you again. Somewhere completely different. Somewhere no one knows about.""She found us in Vermont in less than a week. What makes you think anywhere else is safer?""Because someone leaked your Vermont location. Someone inside my organization. Someone Jessica has compromised." Agent Park's voice was tight with fury. "I've initiated an internal investigation. But until we find the mole, we can't trust anyone. This relocation, I'm handling personally. Only three people will know where you're going. Me. And two agents I've worked with for fifteen years. People I trust with my life.""You trusted the Vermont team and look what happened.""I know. But I'm out of options. Either we try again with tighter security, or I let you go back to New York and hope we catch Jessica before she kills you. Pick your poison."Montana

  • Blood and Buttercream   Above and Beyond

    Agent Park spent the next week unraveling Jessica Patterson's empire. Every day brought new discoveries. Each one more damning than the last.I sat in her office watching her whiteboard fill with connections. Lines connecting Jessica to Shaw. Shaw to bankrupt designers. Jessica to Jade Phoenix Investments. Jade Phoenix to dozens of fashion brands built on stolen work."This isn't just fraud," Agent Park said. She added another connection to the board. "This is organized crime. A criminal enterprise operating for forty years under the cover of legitimate business. RICO territory. Federal conspiracy. Money laundering. Tax evasion. The charges we can bring are extensive.""But you need Jessica to bring them," I said. "And she's gone.""We'll find her. She can't hide forever. No one can."But I wasn't so sure. Jessica had forty years to prepare escape plans. She wasn't like Shaw or Brock. She didn't act impulsively. Every move was calculated. Every contingency planned."Look at this," Age

  • Blood and Buttercream   Let It Fall

    I thought surrendering would bring peace. I was wrong.The morning after I told Agent Park to drop the investigation, my phone rang. Unknown number. I knew before answering."Good morning, Bethany. I trust you slept well after making such a wise decision." Jessica's voice was warm. Almost friendly. Like we were still mentor and student having coffee. "But I'm afraid your decision isn't complete. There are additional terms we need to discuss.""I backed down. I told the FBI to stop investigating you. What more do you want?""I want to make sure you stay backed down. That you don't change your mind in a month or a year when you're feeling brave again. I need permanent insurance." Her voice hardened slightly. "Here are my terms. You have seventy-two hours to complete them. All of them. Or I start removing people from your life. Permanently."My blood ran cold. "What terms?""First, shut down Nott Designs. Completely. Close the company. Fire all employees. Liquidate all assets. The brand

  • Blood and Buttercream   The FBI

    We were halfway to the FBI building when my phone rang again. Unknown number. Different from the text.I almost didn't answer. But something made me pick up."Hello?""Bethany. It's been too long." Jessica Patterson's voice. Warm. Familiar. The same voice that once encouraged me. Taught me. Believed in me. "We need to talk. Face to face. Just you and me.""I have nothing to say to you.""Oh, I think you do. I think you have quite a lot to say about the USB drive you found. The one Brock so thoughtfully hid in Emma's stuffed rabbit. The one you delivered anonymously to the FBI this morning." She laughed softly. "Did you really think I wouldn't know? I have people everywhere, darling. Eyes and ears in places you can't imagine."My hands tightened on the phone. Marcus glanced over from the driver's seat, concerned. Diana leaned forward from the back seat."What do you want, Jessica?""I want to meet. To explain. You deserve to understand why things happened the way they did. Why you were

  • Blood and Buttercream   Declare War

    I didn't sleep that night. Kept thinking about the meeting with Agent Park. About what could go wrong. About Jessica Patterson watching from somewhere, waiting to strike.At dawn, I made a decision. I wouldn't go to Agent Park's office myself. Too risky. Too exposed. If Jessica had connections in law enforcement like Valerie suggested, showing up at the FBI building would be like announcing I had the evidence.Instead, I called Diana."I need your help. And I need you to not ask questions until after you've done what I'm asking."Diana was quiet for a moment. "That's ominous. But okay. What do you need?""I need you to deliver something to Agent Park. A USB drive. Evidence. Critical evidence. But I need you to do it anonymously. Don't tell her where you got it. Don't mention my name. Just say you received it from a concerned party and felt the FBI should have it.""Bethany, what's on this drive?""Everything. Financial records. Money laundering proof. Evidence that could destroy Shaw

    I groan and stretch out on the bed. I peel my eyes open, blinking out the early morning sunshine. The birds were melodiously chirping as I snuggled into the soft goose feather pillows and sighed in content. Then, like a tsunami, everything that happened between us the night before hits me all at o

    I tried to join her on the bed, but she raised her palm out to me and stood from the bed while I just watched her.She licks her lip a little before she bites her bottom lip and slides her arms out of the straps of her dress. My eyes eagerly watch her as she reaches back and slides the zipper down

    Alessandro went back to the bakery and was glad when he saw that there were a handful of customers who were enjoying themselves in the bakery.When Camilla saw him, she greeted him with a hug, “How did It go with that guy?”“Not to worry. I have handled him.” He assured her, taking the tray of cupc

    When they came out of the staff room and into the retail space she could clearly See that it was a customer knocking.Alessandro's hands were already folded into balls As he gingerly strode to the door.Camilla knew if she let him go there that he might escalate matters or be violent so she held hi
