Jared’s hand remained under Hayden’s for a moment, his jaw tight. “I know, Hay. But after everything, I just feel like I need to see it with my own eyes.” He exhaled slowly, the professional tension bleeding out of his shoulders. “Okay. Okay, let’s go see what the movers did with the place.”

The rest of the day was a blur of guards patrolling the house, service helpers unpacking the little that was left, them touring the house and adjusting things to fit their individual liking, and the comforting chaos of four people trying to settle into a new home.

Even with the guards stationed at every fence line and patrolling the grounds, the house felt lighter, never suffocating.

Nothing could dampen the joy that they were all standing in the new home, all four of them complete and together after the scare of the past months.

They decided to send their personal chef and the service helpers home and make dinner themselves. The meal making passed in a blur of laughter and chaos.

This entire chapter was inspired… or should I say fueled by the Coldplay- fix you blaring in my ears on repeat. Happy new month guys. Y’all make this all worth.

  • Claimed by My Husband and His Bestfriends    CHAPTER 127: THE SIREN’S CALL

    Inside Beck’s office, the air was thick with the scent of the lemon air freshener Myla loved and the relentless, looping sound of a dead woman’s laughter. The walls were covered in projections of Rosie Kowalsky: at a picnic, blowing out birthday candles, looking into a lens with bright and hopeful eyes that knew that she was going to be erased in such a horrible manner.“Again,” Beck said with a soft voice. He was perched at the console, his glasses reflecting the blue light of the voice-modulation wave forms. “But use Eddie this time around. That’s what she called him the last time she posted about him.”Myla sat beside him in a wrinkled cream colored wrap dress, her hair pulled back into a messy knot. She looked exhausted, her eyes rimmed with red.They had been practicing and practicing for days now. Trying to perfect her pitch, tone, and auditory vibrations to match the late Annabel Rosalie Kowalsky. “Eddie… It’s me,” she whispered into the microphone on the table in front of her

  • Claimed by My Husband and His Bestfriends    CHAPTER 126: ROT IN THE HOUSE

    “You are telling me he is still a patient here?” Hayden asked in shock. The administrator, Mr Blake, sitting across from him, nodded with conviction, fingers laced together on the polished conference table. “According to our records, Edward Kowalsky remains institutionalized under long-term psychiatric observation.”The room went very quiet. Jared crossed his hand and leaned back in his chair, eyes sharp as he looked at the sweating man with a piercing gaze. After Hayden made a couple of calls two days ago to some of his contacts, the two of them finally got the go-ahead to see the head administrator face-to-face. Hayden took in a deep breath and copied Jared’s stance. “Then bring him in.”He blinked at him, shocked. “Excuse me, sir?”“The Edward Kowalsky you said is still here,” Hayden repeated, his voice calm and a little bit smug. “Have him escorted here. I would like to see him.”A flicker of unease crossed the man’s face. “Mr Oakley, with all due respect, patients like Kowals

    Myla sighed, turning to him. “I keep thinking about the fact that he needs help. Like real help. Not to be hunted down like a rabid animal.”Hayden felt a surge of irritation, but he pushed it down, deliberately softening his voice. “Baby, he is not a harmless victim. He is a murderer. He killed his wife, remember?”“I know that,” she said, her eyes sad. “I haven’t forgotten what he did. But I can't help but wonder… what if he’d had help sooner? What if he hadn't grown up in that environment? I just feel so sorry because it is just a waste of a life.”Hayden’s heart softened. This was the woman he loved…. the woman whose heart was so vast she could find empathy even for the monster chasing her. It was the same heart that held him when he was falling apart… that saved him. He took her hand, kissing her knuckles. “That is why you have your foundation now, my love. To find and help the ones who need help on time before they turn into men like him.” He pulled her closer, his arms wrappin

    “Why do you have that look on your face?” Detective Carolanne asked her partner.“I just got off the phone with Mr Oakley,” he replied, joining her at the counter to get a cup of freshly brewed coffee. “He invited us to his home.” “What?” Carolanne asked in surprise, looking at him with wide eyes. Then she let out a yelp as her cup started overflowing because she wasn’t paying attention. “You mean like their actual house.... the new house everyone is so curious about?”“Yup,” Detective Ben replied, giving her a paper towel to wipe her hands. “I was equally shocked, but he said since we now know that the stalker is hiding and not actively looking for them, it’s ok for us to come to them now.”“Wow,” Carolanne breathed. “He really trusts us, uhn? What if we decide to sell the information? What is the address he sent?”Ben chuckled. “Well, that will be very hard to do because he is sending a car to pick us up.” She rolled her eyes. “Of course.”An hour later, Detective Ben and Carolann

    His eyes flew open. “Agree to what?”“You think you can tell me no?” she whispered, leaning down so her breasts brushed his chest. “You think you can decide how I fight my battles?”“Mine… please,” Hayden choked out, his face flushed, his body straining as his hips jerked up into the tight heat of her wet pussy.She increased the pace, her body a blur of friction and heat. She was the one in control. She was the one driving the tempo.“Agree, Hayden,” she demanded, her voice rising with her own pleasure. “Agree to the plan. Tell me you’ll let me end this.”“I can’t… I can’t let you—”She slowed even more, her body clenching around him just enough to make him see stars but the friction reduced enough to halt his climbing pleasureHayden let out a sound of pure agony, his hips bucking upward in a desperate search for the contact.“Agree!” she commanded.Hayden’s resolve snapped like a dry twig. “Yes! Dammit, yes! Whatever you want, just… baby, please!”The moment the word left his lips,

    The car was quiet with Myla, Beck, and Jared throwing looks at Hayden, whose head was completely turned away from them, looking outside through the tinted windows of the SUV, the snow-draped city flashed by. He hadn’t said a word after they left the precinct, leaving Jared to drive the car to the helipad where the helicopter was waiting. The festive light twinkled on street corners, but inside the vehicle, the air was heavy with the lingering echo of Edward Kowalsky’s voice. Their house was quiet with most of the staff dismissed for the holidays, leaving only some guards. Hayden didn’t even make it to the living room. “I’m not agreeing to it,” he said flatly, running a hand through his hair. “I don’t care what Ben or Caroline thinks. I don’t care how clever the plan sounds. Myla is not bait.”“She has been his prey for a while now,” Jared said quietly. “Don’t say it like that.” Hayden snarled, rounding on him. “The answer is still no. There is no version of this reality where I al
