~SARA~

I watch as the woman pull the fabric from the bed and step closer. Her hands are gentle but firm as she guides me into it, sliding the fabric over my shoulders. The night dress feels cool against my skin, but it does nothing to calm the heat rising in my chest.

Khlan— after our 'conversation', had instructed his men take me to a room and have me rest for the night. The woman had been told to make me comfortable.

So this is why, I am in a room, in the middle of god knows where, getting dr

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 111— Chaos

    ~Sara~I sit across from 'Mrs. Steel-Gray Glasses', because her actual name has never once mattered more than those terrifying spectacles.They rest halfway down her nose like two polished threats.She studies a sheet of paper in front of her. My apology letter. Eight thousand handwritten words of humiliation, lies, and repetitive remorse. My wrist may never recover.She adjusts the glasses. The room somehow grows colder.“So,” she says, voice clipped enough to trim hedges. “When you wrote Miss Quinn shines with a radiance I failed to appreciate, were you sincere?”I blink. "Emotionally? No.”Her eyes rise slowly.I clear my throat. “I mean... yes. Professionally sincere.”She writes something down.That cannot be good.She flips a page. “And here, where you state, I deeply regret any emotional discomfort caused to Miss Quinn’s delicate ecosystem. Explain.”I fold my hands in my lap. “That was metaphorical growth.”“Growth?”“Yes. I’m very committed to healing.”Mrs. Steel-Gray Glass

    ~Sara~Her fork pauses halfway to her mouth.Slowly, she lowers it.Her eyes drop to the plate.“I really am a terrible daughter,” she murmurs.Her gaze flickers, then she forces a smile. “I’ll make time tomorrow. Definitely.”I snort. “You better.”Sandra clears her throat loudly. “So who taught you baking?”Rachel perks up. “A woman online named Brenda and the grace of God.”“The grace of God left halfway through,” I say.Sandra nearly chokes laughing.Rachel throws a napkin at me.And somehow, against all logic, the night keeps going.~~~My eyes snap open.Darkness.I squint my eyes at the faint red glow from the digital clock on top of my dresser cuts through the room.2:30 AM.Good.I turn my head to the left.Sandra is sprawled across the bed like a fallen warrior, one leg hanging off the mattress, mouth slightly open. Her snores rumble through the room in aggressive intervals, like she’s personally fighting someone in her dreams.I slowly turn to the right.Rachel sleeps on he

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 110— The Sorry Cake.

    ~Sara~I spend the walk home replaying the last thing Alex said to me.Three days.I scoff. “Was I supposed to be scared? Because that was embarrassing.”I turn the corner toward my apartment building, still fuming.He really stood there in the shadows like some overpriced villain in a designer coat, threatening me like Linda was some fragile saint worth protecting.Please.The man has lost his mind.“She suffered.” I mimic under my breath, climbing the front steps. “You know who’s suffering? Me. From your stupidity.”I shove through the lobby doors and head for the stairs. My heels strike each step in sharp, angry beats.“And another thing,” I continue to no one, “if you’re going to threaten someone, commit to it. Don’t whisper dramatically like you’re auditioning for a crime documentary.”By the time I reach my floor, I’m winded and still annoyed.I stalk down the hallway, digging through my purse for my keys. Lip gloss. Receipts. A pen with no cap. Why do I own six expired coupons?

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 109— You Don't Get To Rewrite The Dead

    ~Sara~ For a second, nothing moves. The city noise beyond the alley fades into a dull blur. The passing traffic, the distant sirens, the footsteps on the sidewalk outside. All of it disappears beneath the silence between us. Alex just stares at me. No blink. No breath. No sound. It feels like we could stand there all day, frozen in time. Then he laughs. Sharp. Offended. “What?” His voice is low and dangerous. I breathe in and steady myself. “You heard me.” “No.” He takes one slow step forward. “I heard words. I’m waiting for sense.” My fingers tighten around my purse strap. “Linda staged it.” His jaw flexes. “She manipulated everything,” I say. Another step. “She used Isabelle.” Another. “She was never some helpless victim dragged through hell for ten years. She built the hell herself.” “Stop.” He barks the word, and it cracks through the alley like a gunshot. I freeze. His chest rises sharply, his eyes burning into mine with a fury so intense it

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 108 — Isabelle Monroe Isn’t Behind the Kidnapping

    ~Sara~I spend the cab ride downtown replaying everything in my head.Rachel betrayed me.And I, like an idiot, almost let her back into my life with open arms.I was foolish.Stupid.Naive enough to think she had changed.That she wanted redemption.That she came back to make things right.After everything she did to Mom and me.After abandoning us.I draw in a shaky breath, blinking hard as I fight the tears threatening to spill over.How foolish I was.How foolish I still am.Part of me wants this to be fake. Wants Rachel to laugh and say it was one of her tasteless pranks.Mom would be crushed if anything happened to her.I just...I just don’t know what the hell to do.The cab slows to the curb.I grab my purse, pull out some cash, and hand it over.“Thank you,” the driver says.I nod, push the door open, and step onto the sidewalk.At the mouth of the alley beside the street, a tall figure stands waiting.Broad shoulders.Hands in his coat pockets.Back turned toward me.The cab

  • Dealing With The Other Brother.   Chapter 107— Sisters And Saboteurs.

    ~Sara~She bursts into laughter so violent she nearly slides off the chair. “Oh my God. You were humbled.”I snatch the paper back. “I was politically inconvenienced.”“You were disciplined.”“I was ambushed.”“You were spanked.”“Rachel!”She grins wickedly.There’s a knock at the door.Neither of us answers.The door pushes open anyway.Alex.I slap a hand over my face, dragging it down.Why does everyone keep invading my peace today?Alex steps into the office with the stupid stern look he usually wears.His gaze lands on Rachel first, then on me, then on the apology pages.Then back to Rachel.“I see introductions happened.” He says it like he’s talking about the weather.Rachel rises smoothly. “Mr. Ford.”“Sara.” He ignores her greeting and looks at me instead.My stomach does that stupid little flip it needs to stop doing. “What?”“I came to check if you were still employed.”“How caring.”His eyes flick to the pages again. “Debatable.”Rachel smiles like she’s watching premium

    ~SARA~WHAM!I let the crate crash onto the gray tiled counter.Everyone stops moving, turning to my direction.I point at the crate, narrowing my brows. “Who did this?”Martha blinks. “Did what?”“Give me rotten ingredients,” I say, pushing the crate toward her.She frowns. “Impossible. We don’t k

    ~SARA~“So let me get this straight,” Sandra says on the other end of the line. “You’re on the news for all the wrong reasons. It’s alleged that you planned to siphon half of the money budgeted for a project—a project worth millions contracted to our agency. The board suspended you based on this, a

Not only are t

    ~SARA~ "Here you go, ma'am," the gentleman says, handing the bag of ice to me. I take it and press it to my cheek, wincing at the sting as I adjust myself on the table. "You're lucky the contents of the mist were just pepper spray," he continues, taking a step back. "The effect should be wearing
