The nurse looked between us, confused.

"I'm sorry, what?" she asked.

"This woman has been stalking me for weeks," Aiden said, voice trembling. "She shows up everywhere. My apartment. My father's office. Now here."

"That's not true," I said.

"She threatened me two days ago. Said if I didn't drop the charges against her and my father, she'd finish what she started."

The nurse backed toward the door. "I'll get security."

"Wait." I stepped forward. "He's lying. I'm his father's—"

"Girlfriend. I know. That's what makes this so sick." Aiden looked at the nurse with tears in his eyes. "She convinced my father to choose her over me. And when I tried to stop them, they both turned on me."

"Aiden, stop."

"I tried to kill myself because of her. Because I couldn't take the harassment anymore." His voice broke. "And now she's here, probably to finish the job."

"You're insane," I whispered.

"I'm traumatized. There's a difference." He pressed the call button again. "Please get security. I don't feel

  • Claimed By My Boyfriend's Father    The Dinner

    Adrian arrived at six wearing a suit.A ten-year-old in a three-piece suit carrying flowers for Hope and wine for us."Thank you for having me," he said at the door. Perfect manners. Perfect smile. "I know this situation is unconventional.""That's one word for it," Jamie said.Adrian handed me the wine. "I did my research. This is your favorite vintage. From the year you and Jamie got married. Thought it was appropriate.""How did you know—""I pay attention. To everything." He walked past us into the house. "Something smells good. What are we having?""Pot roast," I managed."Hope's favorite. Smart choice." He looked around. "You've redecorated since I was last here. New curtains. The family photos are rearranged. Trying to erase Aiden?""We're trying to move forward.""You can't move forward by pretending the past didn't happen. My father taught me that. He also taught me that the past always catches up." Adrian sat on the couch. "Where's Hope?""Getting ready.""She's nervous. Abo

    Hope didn't speak the entire drive home.She stared out the window with a look I recognized. The same look I'd had after meeting Aiden.Confusion. Fascination. Fear of something that felt inevitable."Talk to me," I said when we pulled into the driveway."About what?""About what he said to you. About how it made you feel.""I don't want to talk about it." She got out of the car. Headed inside.Jamie followed her. "Hope, we need to discuss—""There's nothing to discuss. He's a weird kid who's obsessed with me. That's it." She started up the stairs. "I'm going to bed.""It's three in the afternoon.""I'm tired." She disappeared into her room. Locked the door.Jamie looked at me. "She's lying.""I know.""What do we do?""I don't know."My phone buzzed. Unknown number.**Unknown:** *She felt it. I could tell. Did you see the way she looked at me?*Adrian.**Me:** *Stay away from her.***Unknown:** *I can't. We're connected now. She knows it. You know it. Fighting it will only make it st

    Hope wore the dress Adrian requested. Red. Too adult for fifteen. She'd found it in my closet."You're not wearing that," I said."He asked me to wear something pretty. This is pretty." She checked her reflection. "Besides, if he's dangerous like you think, what I'm wearing won't matter. If he's just a kid looking for family, then it's just a dress.""Hope—""I'm going. With or without you." She grabbed her purse. "Your choice."Jamie drove us to the hotel. Torres followed in an unmarked car. Backup, she'd said. In case things went wrong.Room 412 was at the end of a long hallway. I knocked.Sophie opened the door. She looked older than ten years should have made her. Tired. Defeated."Thank you for coming," she said."We didn't have much choice.""I know. I'm sorry about that. Adrian insisted." She stepped aside. "He's waiting."Adrian sat on the bed wearing a button-down shirt and slacks. Like he was dressed for church. Or a date.His eyes went straight to Hope."Hello," he said. "Y

    Jamie moved in front of me. "Put the knife down, Adrian.""Why? I'm just holding it. Not threatening anyone." Adrian examined the blade. "It's from your kitchen. I took it while you were on the phone. Wanted to see if you'd notice.""We noticed. Now put it down.""No." Adrian's smile widened. "I want to show you something first."He pressed the blade to his own palm. Drew it across slowly. Blood welled up."Adrian, stop—" I started forward."Don't move." He held up his bleeding hand. "See? I can hurt myself and not even flinch. Dad wrote about it in his journal. Said pain is just information. That if you process it correctly, it becomes power.""You read his journals," Jamie said."Every single one. Mom tried to hide them but I found them when I was eight. Been studying ever since." He wrapped his hand in his shirt. "He was brilliant. Damaged, but brilliant. And he left me a roadmap.""A roadmap to what?""To understanding what I am. What I'm capable of. What I'm supposed to become."

  • Claimed By My Boyfriend's Father    Adrian

    Sophie arrived at noon with a boy who looked exactly like Aiden.Same dark hair. Same sharp features. Same unsettling intensity in his eyes.Adrian was ten years old and already looked like he could see through people."Thank you for agreeing to meet us," Sophie said at my door.I hadn't agreed. She'd just shown up."This is Adrian," she continued when I didn't respond. "Adrian, this is Lilith. Your father's... widow."The boy studied me with eyes too old for his face. "You married my dad and then you married his dad. That's weird.""It's complicated," I managed."That's what Mom says about everything." Adrian looked past me into the house. "Are your kids here? Mom says I have a sister and brother. Kind of.""They're not your siblings. They're your—" I stopped. What were they? His uncle and aunt technically, but also his age peers. "They're your father's half-siblings.""So we're related but not really." Adrian smiled. It wasn't Aiden's smile. It was something else. Something calculat

  • Claimed By My Boyfriend's Father    The Shot

    1The gun went off.I screamed.But Jamie was still standing.The bullet had gone wide, hitting the wall behind us. Aiden's hand was shaking."I can't," Aiden whispered, lowering the gun. "I can't do it. I can't kill you."Jamie stood frozen. "Then let us go.""No. I just—I can't shoot you. But I can't let her go either." Aiden's composure cracked completely. "Don't you understand? She's all I have. She's the only thing that makes sense. If she leaves, I have nothing.""You have your freedom. Your life. A chance to actually get help.""Help doesn't fix what's broken in me. Nothing does." Aiden looked at me. "Tell him. Tell him you don't want to go.""I want to go, Aiden. This isn't love. This isn't marriage. It's captivity.""It's the only way I know how to love." His eyes filled with tears. "My mother taught me that love means control. That if you let people make their own choices, they'll leave. So you take away the choice. You make them stay.""That's not love," Jamie said. "That's
