Danny's POV

The walk to the Biology wing was the longest ten minutes of my life. The campus was a graveyard of shadows, and every time a dry leaf skittered across the pavement, I nearly jumped out of my skin. I kept my head down, pulling the drawstrings of my hoodie so tight that only my nose was sticking out.

My phone buzzed in my hand. I didn't even have to look to know it was him.

I swiped the screen, my thumb leaving a smudge of sweat on the glass. It was a photo. A grainy, high-angle

    Danny's POV I slammed my bedroom door and twisted the lock until it clicked, the sound echoing like a final nail in a coffin. I sank to the floor, my back against the wood, my lungs feeling like they were filled with dry sand.What was wrong with Gabriel?I closed my eyes and all I could see was that twisted mirror image of myself. The blonde hair, the blue eyes, the stolen shirt and him pinning Noah to the wall. It was a replay of Leo. It was a replay of every time I finally reached for a hand and Gabriel was there to bite it off. We used to be best friends. We used to share secrets and cheap takeout, and now he was trying to skin me alive and wear my life like a costume. I never really thought much about it but it finally all clicked.Is it me? I wondered, a sob hitching in my throat. Did I push him? Did I make him this way by being so distant these days?The tears were coming fast now, hot and ugly, blurring my vision until the room was just a smear of expensive decor. I reached

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    Another Betrayal

    Danny's POV The sun is a liar. It’s bright and golden and looks like it should heal you, but all it did was make the sweat sting the fresh welts on my back. I dressed in slow, agonizing motions, pulling on a silk button down and fastening every single button up to my throat. I looked like a Victorian doll in the middle of the tropics, but I couldn't let them see. I couldn't let anyone see.I caught my reflection and felt a wave of nausea. My eyes were sunken, my lips swollen from a kiss that felt more like a car crash. I looked like a boy who was being eaten alive from the inside out.The beach brunch was a nightmare of clinking silverware and forced laughter. I sat next to Noah, trying to focus on the way he pulled out my chair and handed me a chilled glass of juice. He was being perfect. He was being the worship. I had screamed about wanting. And yet, every time his fingers grazed mine, I felt… nothing. Just a hollow, echoing silence where a heartbeat should be.Across the table,

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    Toxic Attraction

    Danny's POV The air in the room was thick, tasting like copper and the expensive leather of the belt that was currently marking my skin. Every time the buckle hissed through the air, I felt a jolt that shouldn't have felt like anything but pain. But I was a mess, a walking, breathing disaster of a boy, and my body was singing a different tune than my brain."I own myself," I muttered, my voice cracking, my forehead pressed against the cool glass of the full length mirror. I could see my own eyes wide, red, and hazy.Thwack."Who owns you, Danny?" Chadwick’s voice was a low, bark right against the shell of my ear."I... I own myself," I gasped again, even as my knees buckled. I was lying. My body was leaning back into him, my skin screaming for the very thing that was bruising it. I was a feminist, or I tried to be, but in this room, with his hands on me, every principle I ever had felt like a joke.Chadwick didn't like the answer. He dropped the belt, the leather hitting the floor w

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    You Belong To Me

    Danny's POV I stood in the middle of my room, my hands shaking so hard I had to shove them into my pockets. The air felt like it was made of lead. Chadwick was just leaning against my door, his silhouette blocking the only way out, watching me like I was a bug he was deciding whether to crush or just keep in a jar."What did you do in that room, Danny?" his voice was low, that smooth, academic tone he used right before he tore a student’s paper to shreds."Nothing," I snapped, though I could feel my eyes darting everywhere but at him. "We were just talking. God, can’t I even have a conversation with someone?""Talking about what?"I finally looked at him, and something in me just broke. "What is your actual problem? I am allowed to talk to people, Chad. I am allowed to talk to someone who actually sees me as a human being. You treat me like literal trash, you call me a distraction, and then you expect me to sit here and be your perfect little puppy?"He let out this laugh. It wasn

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    Caught In The Act

    Danny's POV The villa felt like a pressure cooker, and my mum, bless her oblivious, socialite heart had just turned the heat up to high."Oh, it's so late! And the drive back is just a nightmare. Why don't you all just stay here? We have plenty of rooms," she said, her voice tinkling like wind chimes while my entire life was collapsing in the background.I stood there, clutching the railing of the grand staircase, watching the players. Chadwick was standing by the bar, his back to us, his posture so stiff he looked like he was made of granite. He didn't say a word. He didn't have to. The silence coming off him was an invitation to a funeral.Noah, on the other hand, didn't even hesitate. "That’s incredibly kind of you, Ma. We would love to."I felt like a zombie as I led them down the hallway. My legs were still heavy from... well, from him, and my skin felt like it was buzzing. I showed Erica to her suite, then Gabriel who was still staring at me weirdly with those creepy blue con

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    Surprise Visit

    Danny's POV The Hawaiian air was supposed to be sweet, right? Hibiscus and sea salt and all that expensive crap. But sitting on the edge of the stone fountain in the villa’s back garden, all I could smell was the leftover gin on my own skin and the burning torch oil.I had my sketchbook open, my charcoal pencil scratching out jagged, ugly lines that didn't look like the ocean at all. They looked like cages. I was trying to breathe, trying to forget the way Chadwick had looked at me over his coffee this morning, like I was a trophy he had already won and placed on a shelf."Hey. Nice drawings."The voice hit me like a bucket of ice water. I didn't just look up, I nearly choked on my own spit. I blinked, rubbing my eyes so hard I probably smeared charcoal all over my face.Standing there, leaning against a palm tree like he had been born in the tropics, was Noah."Noah?" My voice was a pathetic, high- pitched squeak. "How... what the hell are you doing here? This is Hawaii. This is a

    Danny's POV The lecture hall felt like a pressurized chamber. The hum of the air conditioning was the only thing filling the silence as Professor Chadwick stood at the front of the room.
