“So…this was all about aunt Dahlia.” He flinched, that far away look took over again for barely a second before the blank look took over.

The lines on his forehead deepened as he processed the question, “In the beginning…yes.” He held my gaze, taking every word slow like he was being careful, like I was a minefield and he had to be careful not to step on the wrong spot, or in this case, get on my last nerve.

“So you knew about her before you gave my father the loan.” I was trying to wrap my head around the whole thing, be more understanding, try to give him the benefit of the doubt, but his track record wasn’t helping. “Was the plan to punish me?” I blurted. It added up. The silent treatment, the late nights out without explanation, the passive aggressive way he always responded when I could get him to speak with me. It was never about me the entire time. It was about my aunty. It was all about a woman who left me for a… wait a minute!

    ADELINEWhispers. Angry and impatient.The house was boring. Another reminder that I really needed to start working again, but Grayson wasn’t having it. Especially after the recent scare. Kris and Jay had dropped in from time to time and when I thought they would be the voice of reasoning and get him to understand why it would actually help me, they chose now to agree with their arch enemy, the little traitors.“That’s what you want!” The whisper was so loud all I had to do was follow it. If I had to explain why I was so drawn to it, I really couldn’t, but that voice, it was way too familiar to ignore, especially with how important it was to get more evidence.The more I questioned myself, the harder my hunch pushed me in the direction of the voice till I was walking down the hallway to the forgotten guest room, the one no one ever really used anymore. It should have been locked, no one was allowed in any of the rooms that were occupied.The closer I got to the room, the faster my hea

    JASPARA gather of musk had settled over the garage, thick and unrelenting from days without ventilation. The windows shut tight just the way they should be.Clanks and bangs filled the space above from the weldering taking place in the blacksmith’s back shop upstairs, but that wasn’t loud enough to distract my thoughts from the one that mattered the most.Her smile was wide, bright and if I didn’t know any better, I would say genuine. But I did. I wasn’t there, I wasn’t by her side, there was no way she could be happy, not without me. She liked to lie to herself that she was every now and then, but I knew more about her than she did about herself.She might have the biggest, brightest smile on, but she could never be happy without me, our souls were one and would always be one no matter where she went or how far she decided to go, we would always find each other and even when she didn’t ask, I would always find her. She was mine and will always be mine.Like a bubbling cauldron, ange

    GRAYSON“Baby, why did you dump me at the hospital? I needed you by my side.” She whined, shaking my arm like a freaking toddler. I stilled, it was all I could do not to peel her thieving fingers off my arm and telling her to shut her lying, cock sucking mouth up.Patters. Rhythmic patters of water meeting earth, quickly followed by nerve wracking thunder. The downpour wasn’t sudden, but just like Scarlett’s invasion of our lives, it was sudden. It was a welcomed surprise however, much unlike Scarlett’s hand that wouldn’t stop running up and down my arm.“I had an emergency.” I tried to keep the strain out of my voice, but even with the furious sounds from the sky masking my irritation, she wasn’t totally tone deaf, yet.“An emergency for two days?!” She shrieked and I could feel it pierce my very skull. Her presence in itself was already a pain, but atleast she never really had time for all of that extra, guess it was due to the fact that she didn’t need a lot to get me to cough out

    ADELINEScarlett was on the other side of the window, her hair flowing and forming a halo around her face in the best way possible. Despite everything I couldn’t lie that she was as stunning as stunning could get, but that didn’t mean I was going to overlook just how vile she was because of it.Pretend, we have to cooperate for this to work. I had to remind myself because the only thing that came to mind in that moment was to roll down the windows and pull her head on it, maybe if she felt some pain, it would reset it some.I forced out air through my lips, letting it come from within, from my lungs, out of my lips. After what felt like forever, I turned to Grayson.“I hope she doesn’t have anything up her sleeves.” I said angrily, gesturing like crazy like I was actually saying something insulting out of anger towards him. It was for her benefit really, but a part of me wanted to actually yell at him, at her, at everybody, they all deserved a little talking to because why on earth wo

    ADELINEGrayson filled me in on the ride back. How he’d met Scarlett, how they divorced, the reason they divorced, the real reason this time not something I could easily get off the blogs and most importantly how he planned to get rid of her.If I was being honest, it did sound like a lot was going on and things could get messy if she ever were to find out she was being played, very messy and it did sting a little to be involved in doing that to another woman, but it was Scarlett, the bitch wouldn’t think twice about doing the same, he’ll, she might even bring a few more ideas to the table to finish me off if the roles were reversed. Still, I wasn’t agreeing to be a part of it because it’s what she would do in my position. I was only because she’d crossed the line.She was here to snatch Johnny if she could, knowing very well she could care less about the boy, her own son! If that didn’t say enough about the woman as a person, I had no idea what else would. The worse part was taking J
