Chaos Is My CrownĀ Ā Ā 132
š¤ Alexandra š¤Coming back into this building after years away from this life brought a strange, specific kind of clarity with it not excitement exactly, though something close enough to it that I didnāt trust myself to examine it too closely. Iād spent five years convincing everyone, myself included, that Iād outgrown rooms like this. Standing in one again, I understood how much of that conviction had just been exhaustion wearing the costume of peace.God, I couldnāt wait to torture the truth out of her.I sat down across from Amara, close enough that there was no pretending this was anything but personal between us now. āStart at the beginning,ā I said quietly. āAnd Amara? Iād choose your next words very, very carefully.āāI have nothing to say to you.āIt came out flat, almost rehearsed, and something in me that Iād kept leashed for five years simply stopped being patient with her.I donāt fully remember deciding to move. I remember the knife was already in my hand Jen always kept

š¤ Jacob š¤Okay. That was definitely unexpected.I sat there in the back of that car for a solid five seconds after Lex climbed off my lap and put herself back together like none of it had happened, just trying to remember how my own lungs worked. Sheād climbed onto me and kissed me senseless, completely without warning, in the middle of the worst day either of us had had in five years, and somehow that felt exactly like her. Exactly like us.I really hoped, once this entire mess was behind us, Stellaās stolen name, whoever was actually pulling the strings that thereād be some real version of a second chance sitting on the other side of it. Because this was already moving faster than Iād let myself expect, faster than was probably wise given everything still unresolved between us.Then again, when it came to me and my Lex, everything had always moved fast. I fell for her fast. Got her pregnant fast. Married her before either of our families had finished processing that we were even t

š¤ Alexandra š¤Fuck you, Alexandra. How dare you get your panties soaked just from his forehead on yours?I stood in front of the mirror in the hospitalās ladiesā room, both palms braced against the cold porcelain sink, and glared at my own reflection like it had personally betrayed me. Which, in a sense, it had.How dare you get like that just because his forehead was on yours. I pointed at myself in the mirror, fully aware I had lost whatever was left of my dignity the second I started lecturing my own reflection out loud. What the heck, woman.I could control my heart. Life had taught me exactly how to lock that particular door and walk away from it. I could control my brain. God knows Iād spent half a decade proving that, building a whole new empire back up from nothing while raising four children mostly alone, no breakdowns, no slipping. But my body, specifically my pussy apparently, had never gotten the memo that Jacob Grey was supposed to be a closed case.It was like I tur

š¤Jacob š¤āEverything about Amaraās financial records was traced back to Stella,ā I said. āWhich is impossible because Stella is sitting in your custody.āShe turned, and I watched the last soft edges of the woman whoād just held our children disappear behind something colder, something I recognized instantly even after five years, because I used to be the only person alive who got to see this version of her up close.āThen I need to torture the truth out of Amara,ā she said. āEnough mind games. I want her alone, I want her scared, and I want her talking inside the hour.āThe old Lex. No performance in it, no hesitation, just pure clean intention with all the softness stripped out of her voice like sheād peeled it off on purpose.God help me.āIs it weird,ā I said, before I could stop myself, āthat I like this version of you better?āShe went still. Just for a second. Long enough that I knew the question had actually landed somewhere instead of bouncing off her.āExcuse me?āāYou hea

š¤ Jacob š¤Lex had barely finished saying help me find out who turned your mistake into a weapon before my phone started buzzing in my pocket, and some old instinct in me the one that had kept me alive for five years of running went cold before I even looked at the screen.Jack.I stepped a few feet further down the corridor before I answered, some reflex of keeping the worst of my life at armās length from Lex still firing even now, even after everything.āTalk to me,ā I said.āBoss, you need to sit down for this.ā Jackās voice had none of its usual flatness. That alone told me everything I needed to know about how bad it was about to get. āI pulled Amaraās financials like you asked. Followed the money backward.āāAnd?āāSheās been getting paid two ways. One small transfer, monthly, from an account Iām ninety percent sure traces back to you the videos, the arrangement, whatever you had going. That partās clean. That part makes sense.āāAnd the other way?āāThe other way is bigger. A

š¤ Alexandra š¤āThank you,ā Jacob muttered, the second we got outside the ward.He pulled me into his arms before I had time to decide whether I wanted to let him.āThank you for keeping me alive in their little minds,ā he murmured against my ear, his hold tightening like he was afraid I might disappear if he loosened it even slightly. āThank you for showing them what I look like.āI let myself stay there for exactly three seconds longer than I should have. Three seconds of his heartbeat against my ear, three seconds of a smell I hadnāt let myself remember in years, three seconds where the only thing that existed was the relief of two children breathing on their own and a man who hadnāt disappeared completely, no matter how hard heād tried.Then I pulled myself out of his arms, because three seconds was already three seconds too many.āYou donāt need to thank me,ā I said, stepping back, putting air between us where his arms had just been. āThey exist because of your obsession with me

š¤ Alexandra š¤The drive back felt different. Because now there was a label on whatever this was between us, and even though nothing about Jacob Grey had suddenly become normal, there was something about sitting beside him as his wife that shifted the air in a way I couldnāt ignore.I was on my ph

š¤ Jacob š¤I kept staring at the paper in my hand like if I blinked too hard it would disappear and someone would walk in and say this was all some kind of joke, because there was no normal explanation for how my life just flipped like this in less than twenty four hours.Marriage certificate.My

š¤ Alexandra š¤I didnāt break eye contact with him as I asked the question, because this was not something I wanted softened or dressed up nicely.āHow many months before you die?ā I said, my voice calm, steady, like I was asking for a business timeline and not the expiry date of a human being.Ja
Chaos Is My CrownĀ Ā Ā 031
š¤ Alexandra š¤This is insane.There is no other word for it, no softer way to frame it, no smarter angle to twist it into something manageable, because what I was watching unfold on my screen right now was pure, calculated destruction and whoever was behind it knew exactly what they were doing.E
