~ DRUSCILLA ~

I cannot believe I am here.

Laid out on another man’s bed, my body open in ways it has never been before, my mind scattered, my senses wrecked beyond repair.

His fingers feel like sin given shape. Every touch sends sparks racing through me, sharp and sweet all at once. My body reacts before my conscience can catch up, arching, trembling, betraying me in ways I did not know were possible.

The sounds slipping from my lips do not even sound like they belong to me. Soft, broken, ne

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 52: I'm not a murderer

    ~ DRUSCILLA ~ I couldn’t believe what I’d just heard. My own mother had given Avery poisoned juice. And the worst part? It was true. Every ugly bit of it. If I hadn’t caught her in that restroom with Isaac, legs wrapped around him like he was the last man on earth, I would’ve called the whole thing a lie. But there was no denying it now. The image was burned into my brain. Why him? Out of all the men in this city, why did she pick Isaac to be her dirty little secret? What the hell was so special about that man? My blood ran hot with rage. What she’d done was unforgivable. Avery had lost her baby because of her. Patricia. What a piece of work. A real queen of mischief. I could almost hear the sarcastic clap echoing inside my head. What else do you have hiding up your sleeve, Mom? I turned to Avery, keeping my voice soft even though my insides were screaming. “I have to go now. I’ll come check on you later.” Tears filled her eyes, making them shine under the hospital light

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 51: Work of the devil

    ~ DRUSCILLA ~The stall door creaked open.Isaac stepped out first, hurriedly fixing the collar of his shirt like a man trying to pretend nothing had happened. His hair was slightly disheveled, his breathing uneven. Patricia followed behind him, smoothing down her skirt with trembling hands, her fingers fumbling as if they had suddenly forgotten how to work.Then they saw me.Both of them froze.Their jaws slackened. Their eyes widened like they had just walked straight into a nightmare.For a second, the world tilted.My breath left my lungs so suddenly it felt like someone had punched me square in the chest.My mom.And Isaac.Oh my God.My hand flew to the wall beside me. I gripped it hard for support as the ground beneath my feet threatened to give way.Ivan rushed toward me immediately, his arm wrapping around my waist to steady me.“What the hell is going on?” he groaned, his eyes moving sharply between them and me.My hand lifted slowly, trembling as I pointed at them.I choked

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 50: Open the door

    **~ DRUSCILLA ~** **TWO WEEKS LATER**The ballroom gleamed like something out of a fever dream. Crystal chandeliers dripped soft light over white linen tables and towering floral arrangements heavy with white roses and eucalyptus. My name was printed boldly on the welcome banner near the entrance—Druscilla Hayes. Event Planner. Pride swelled warm in my chest. I had pulled this off. Despite everything—the betrayal, the heartbreak, the sheer fucking audacity—I had stayed professional and delivered something beautiful.Hard to believe, wasn’t it? I had planned my traitorous best friend’s engagement party to my ex-boyfriend.“You actually came,” Avery said, her voice pitched high with that fake, sugary excitement the moment Ivan and I stepped through the double doors. She gave Ivan a slow once-over, her glossy lips twitching. “And you brought your gangster with you.”She looked expensive in a sleeveless silver gown that caught every flicker of light, her makeup soft and flawless, hair

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 49: Ruined now

    The private elevator hummed upward, and the second the doors slid open into Ivan’s penthouse, his hand was already at the small of my back—hot, possessive, steering me inside like I belonged to him. Floor-to-ceiling windows framed the glittering Manhattan skyline, but I couldn’t focus on anything except the way my pulse hammered in my throat. I’d teased him for weeks. Tonight he was cashing in every filthy promise he’d ever growled against my ear.“You’ve teased me long enough,” he rasped, lips brushing the shell of my ear, voice low and rough like gravel wrapped in velvet. “Tonight I keep my promise. I’m going to fuck you, ruin you—edge you, break you, fill every hole until you’re a senseless, dripping mess who can’t even think straight.”Heat flooded between my thighs so fast my knees nearly buckled. Before I could answer, he spun me and slammed my back against the cool glass. His mouth crashed down on mine, claiming, devouring, tongue fucking my mouth the way I already knew he plan

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 48: Liar liar

    ~ DRUSCILLA ~Strong arms suddenly locked around my waist from behind, pulling me against a hard chest before I could even scream.“It’s me, Dru,” his deep voice rumbled against my ear, low and rough, stopping my heart mid-beat.I froze.“Tell me, Cillia… where the hell did I go wrong?” Ivan asked, turning me around so I had no choice but to face him.His eyes—those stormy gray eyes I used to drown in—looked wrecked. He’d lost weight. His cheekbones were sharper, his face leaner, like he hadn’t eaten properly in days. The sight of him like that twisted something deep in my chest.Don’t you dare soften, Druscilla. You’re mad at him. Stay mad.“Please, baby… talk to me,” he groaned, his voice cracking just a little. “Why are you avoiding me?”“I’m not avoiding you,” I snapped, my voice rising before I could stop it. “I don’t want to see you anymore. I don’t want to talk to you. I don’t want a goddamn thing to do with you!”The words flew out loud and ugly on that empty street. Ivan’s ha

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 47: Not leaving without answers

    ~ IVANOV ~It has been one week, four days, twenty four hours and thirty two minutes since I last saw her.Yeah. I counted.Every damn second.Druscilla has not picked up a single call. Not one reply. Not even a dry, cold text to tell me to get lost.Nothing.And that is what is eating me alive.“Calm down, boss,” Pedro said, leaning back like this was nothing. “Maybe she’s just busy with work or something.”I turned my head slowly and shot him a look so sharp it could cut skin.He straightened instantly.“She can’t be that busy,” I said, my voice low but tight, like something was about to snap. “Not to the point where she ignores me completely.”My chest felt heavy. Like someone had their hand wrapped around my heart, squeezing. Not enough to kill me. Just enough to make every breath hurt.“I know her,” I continued, dragging my hand through my hair, pacing the room like a caged animal. “She doesn’t go a single day without talking to me. Not one. And now she just disappears? No explan

    ~ Druscilla ~“Uh… yes… I mean, no…” The words tangled on my tongue.“I can tell when someone’s lying,” Lani said with a crooked smile, then turned back to Ivan. “Sorry about that, sir.” She stretched out her hand. “I’m Lani, the nurse sent to treat you. And this is my sister—”“Druscilla,” Ivan fi

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 24: Watch and see

    ~ Druscilla ~"I promise you I am fine," Avery said, her voice weak but trying to sound steady, like she was convincing herself more than me.I shook my head, my heart pounding a little too hard in my chest. The faint smell of antiseptic mixed with the lingering coffee from the cafe we'd just left,

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 22: I have no family

    ~ IVANOV ~My fist slammed into the punching bag again and again, each hit echoing through the gym like a thunderclap. Sweat slicked my skin, dripping down my back and stinging my eyes, the salty tang mixing with the musty scent of leather and old rubber mats. Pedro hung back by the edge of the rin

  • Entangled with the wrong man    Chapter 21: Third party

    ~ ISAAC ~I couldn’t believe what had just happened. My mind kept replaying everything in that dingy bar as I drove, the scenes looping like a bad movie reel: the stranger’s arms around her, his possessive grip, the way he looked at me like I was dirt under his shoe. The city’s lights blurred past
