Danny's POV

The rain was coming down so hard it felt like the sky was trying to drown the entire campus. I stood there, shivering in my soaked pink sweatshirt, staring at Noah Sinclair like he had just grown a second head. He was holding that massive pink umbrella over me, his own shoulder getting absolutely drenched as the water sluiced off the fabric and onto his expensive suit.

"What do you want, Noah?" I shouted over a crack of thunder. My voice was shaky, and I hated it. I was tired of

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    Two decades Lies

    Chadwick's POV The mahogany desk felt like the only solid thing in the room. I leaned against it, my knuckles white, staring at Sarah. She looked smaller than usual, huddled in that oversized armchair, her perfect hair finally starting to fray at the edges. The silence between us wasn't just quiet it was heavy, like the air before a terminal storm. "An orphanage," I repeated. The word tasted like dust. "two months of marriage, Sarah. Almost a year of dating, and you never mentioned this to me?" Sarah flinched. She didn't look up. Her fingers were twisting a damp tissue into a shredded mess. "I had been married for ten years before I met you, Silas. Ten years of doctors, of tests, of being told my body was a failure. I was desperate. When my first husband and I saw him... he was two. He had those eyes. We wanted him." I let out a breath that was half laugh, half-growl. I crossed the room, my footsteps muffled by the thick Persian rug. I stood over her, casting a shadow that made h

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    The Underground World

    Leo's POV The air in the transport van smelled like old cigarettes and bleach. My wrists were raw from the zip ties they had swapped for real cuffs an hour ago, but I didn't even care. I was actually smirking, staring out at the dark coastline as we blurred past. Papa. I knew it. There was no way a man with his reach was going to let his only son rot in a precinct cell because of some schoolboy drama. Noah Sinclair might have the money and power, but my old man had the kind of grease that made the world turn. I figured this was the play a midnight transfer, a disappearance from the books. Honestly I preferred my cartel Papa, to my biological parents. They just watched me get locked up by that shit-head, good thing I have my old man by my side. "Where are we going?" I asked, my voice raspy. I looked at the guard sitting across from me. He was built like a brick wall and hadn't said a word for three hours. "Is Papa waiting?" The guard didn't even look at me. He just checked his watc

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    The Revelation

    Chadwick's POV I couldn’t even focus on the ink. The student scripts were spread across my mahogany desk like a graveyard of mediocre thoughts, but the words were blurring into a mess of gray lines. I was holding my fountain pen so tight I could feel the tension in my forearm, and then snap. The barrel gave way. Dark blue ink bled all over my palm, staining my skin like a bruise. I didn't even swear. I just stared at it. I pushed back from the desk, the chair screeching against the hardwood floor of my study. I started pacing. Three steps to the window, three steps back to the bookshelf. My mind was stuck in that damn lecture hall, replaying the way Noah Sinclair looked at Danny. His eyes were concentrated at Danny the whole lecture. And Danny. My God, Danny. For the first time since this whole mess started, Danny didn't look at me like I was his world. He didn’t flinch. He just... existed. Like had finally realized I was just his stepfather. Just the man who married his mother.

He was holding that massive pink umbrella over me, his own shoulder getting absolutely drenched as the water sluiced off the fabric and onto his expensive suit. "What do you want, Noah?" I shouted over a crack of thunder. My voice was shaky, and I hated it. I was tired of being the mouse in everyone’s game. He didn't move. He didn't even blink as the rain matted his blonde hair to his forehead. "I want you, Danny." It wasn't a question. It was a statement of fact. Like he had already decided it and was just waiting for me to catch up. I let out a dry, jagged laugh that got swallowed by the wind. "I don't want you. I don't want anyone. I am just... I am tired, man. Leave me alone." Noah actually smiled. It wasn't a mean smile, which somehow made it worse. It w

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    The Sinclair's Heir

    Danny's POV I woke up waiting for my life to explode. Seriously, I just lay there staring at the ceiling, clutching my phone like it was a live grenade. I was waiting for the beep that would end everything. Maybe a call from my mum or from Leo. But there was nothing. The silence was actually louder than a ringtone. It was creepy. I checked my signal full bars. I checked my data active. No Leo. No heartbroken mum. Nothing. I had already prepared myself for the drama but it never came. At least not yet. Then, a single notification popped up. My heart nearly jumped out of my throat, but it wasn’t from anyone of them. Noah Sinclair: I hope you slept well, Danny. The lilies should be blooming by now. I stared at it for a full minute. Lilies? Who even talks like that? It was so polite it felt like a threat in a different language. I didn't reply. I couldn't. My thumbs felt like lead. I just swiped the notification away and threw the phone across the bed. I wasn't doing this today. I

  • DESPISED AND DEVOURED BY MY STEP FATHER    Knight In Shining Armour

    Gabriel's POV I left the club feeling like a ghost. Erica was still buzzing, her eyes locked on that mountain of a bodyguard like she had just found a winning lottery ticket, but she hadn’t said a word to me about what they talked about. I didn’t push it. I couldn't. My head was spinning with the bass and the guilt, a cocktail that made me want to throw up on my own shoes. I walked back to my dorm, the humid night air sticking to my skin. Every shadow on the pavement looked like Danny’s face. I kept thinking about freshman year before the secrets, before the Leo's madness. We used to just sit on the roof and talk about the future. Now, I couldn't even look him in the eye without feeling like a piece of trash. I missed my best friend. I missed the version of me that wasn't a bitch. The dorm was silent when I got back. I stripped off my clothes, dropping them in a heap, and headed straight for the shower. I needed to wash the smell of the club and the shame off me. I was standing un

I was upright before my brain even processed the sound, my Professor act I had been playing for months falling away li
