Claiming My Father’s Best Friend Epilogue
ASTRID “Hey, wife.” I was stir at the sound of Jordan’s whispering in my ear. My eyes flutter open, blinking against the morning light as I adjust to the brightness. A smile tugs at my lips when I feel his lips press against mine. He slides one strap of my nightie down, his weight settling over me.Two years of marriage, a beautiful daughter, and yet, every single day with him feels like we just got married. I love every bit of my life with Jordan. It’s everything I ever wished for, maybe even more. The kind of love my parents had, but even greater. Jordan loves me silly.I nudge my leg against his growing bulge, and he groans, making me giggle. “Someone woke up horny,” I tease.His eyes darken with amusement and desire. “I’m always horny for you,” he murmurs before leaning in to claim my mouth.He paused and then groaned at the noise outside our door.“Peter!” he mutters, dropping his forehead against my shoulder in frustration.Laughter bubbles up inside me as I watch him sulk.“I

I’m getting married today.I’m about to become Mrs. Jordan Remington.I step outside for fresh air before my makeup artist arrives.I watch as dad barks orders at the wedding planner, his hands flying as he gestures towards the floral arrangement. The poor woman looks like she is about to cry. The woman is breathless, scrambling to take notes while nodding furiously at every demand he throws her way. I shake my head, smiling.

JORDANI close my eyes and brace myself for the impact, for the pain, for the end. I fall backward hard, my body hitting the rough concrete.The pain doesn’t erupt as expected and I’m still breathing. I snap my eyes open, confusion flooding through me. But then I see Astrid falling on top of me.Blood.So much blood.It pools beneath her, soaking into her dress, staining her skin, warm and sticky against my hands as I grip her shoulders.For a second, I can’t process it.Then reality crashes into me like a goddamn freight train.She took the bullet for me. She jumped in front of a bullet for me.“Astrid!”The scream rips from my throat, raw and agonized.I shake her, my hands trembling violently. “No, no, no, Astrid!” Her face is pale, her lips parted slightly, her breathing shallow.“I love you, Jordan,” she whispers and closes her eyes. There’s chaos around me, gunshots, shouting, footsteps pounding but all I see is her.“Stay with me please!” I roar. “Astrid, open your eyes! You h

JORDANThe first time I met Astrid was at the bar and I hadn’t even planned it. I was there because I was practically dragged there by my friends. I went, not expecting anything, not looking for anyone.And then I saw her.There was something about her. A presence. A spark. Something that pulled me in before I even realized what was happening. She wasn’t just beautiful, she was sparkling. The kind of I hadn’t felt in years. And for the first time in forever, I wanted to feel.That night, I let myself have her. And when I woke up beside her, my instinct was to run, to get as far away as possible before I let something dangerous take root. So I did.But I couldn’t stop thinking about her.She got under my skin in a way no one else ever had. I told myself it was just curiosity. A one-time thing. But fate had other plans. I found her again, and against all reason, I couldn’t stay away.A harmless fling. That’s what I called it. Just sex. Nothing more. No feelings. No attachments.What a f

ASTRIDCold water splashes against my face, jolting me awake. I gasp, but the sound is muffled by the duct tape sealing my mouth. My heart pounds against my chest, and adrenaline floods my veins. I blink rapidly, my vision blurring before the dim, crumbling surroundings come into focus.Where... where am I? It sure doesn’t look like heaven. So I’m alive. “Look who’s finally awake!”That voice. No... no, it can’t be—My eyes swing to the side.Lily.My best friend, or... the girl who used to be.Her lips curve into a sinister smile, one I’ve never seen before, not on her. Her eyes gleam, as if she is having the best time of her life.My head throbs, and I glance around, panic surging as I realize I’m strapped to a wooden chair, old—perched precariously close to the edge of what looks like a rooftop No railing. Just...air. My stomach flips. One wrong move, and I’ll plummet. Oh God. Oh God.I pull against the ropes, binding my wrists, my pulse racing faster when they burn against my ski

JORDANI haven’t slept. Not even a wink.I didn’t even try because I knew it would be futile. How could I when I tore her apart with my words. Those cruel, calculated lies ripped her apart.I don’t love you.I wish I had never met you.Christ, just thinking about it makes me want to punch myself. But I had to. I had to. If she hates me, it’ll be easier for her to move on. That’s what I keep telling myself, over and over, as if repeating it enough will drown out the hollow ache in my chest.Spoiler: it doesn’t.The selfish part of me, the part that doesn’t give a damn about right or wrong. I wanted to grab her, hold her close, and just run. Disappear with her to some remote place where none of this mess could touch us. But I can’t. Wouldn’t be fair to her. She’s young. Very much so.She might hate her parents. A few years down the line, she’d resent me for taking her away from them. That thought alone... damn it.My office has been my prison since she left last night. Agatha knocked a
