The next day came rather quickly, and after going about the day's activities, it was finally time for Felix's party.

​I had asked Janice earlier what her husband liked and went shopping so I could bring a proper gift. When it was time, I drove over to their house.

​"Welcome, girl!" Janice cheered, coming out to welcome me in the garage.

​"How are you?" I asked, pulling her into a warm hug.

​"I'm very well, thank you," she said, her eyes instantly darting to the glossy bag in my back seat.

    Katherine's POV ​"What the hell?" I gasped as the elevator lights suddenly began to flicker overhead, causing the cabin to grind to a harsh halt. ​"What's happening?" Ethan asked, pressing his hand against the control panel, but none of the floor buttons responded. ​"Oh my God, we're stuck," I said, a wave of cold panic hitting my chest as I stared at the sealed doors. ​"Take it easy. I'm sure it's just a minor technical glitch," he said calmly. "They're probably working on it right now." ​I ignored him, tapping frantically at my screen. "There's no service at all," I blurted out, my anxiety spiking. "Check your phone. Maybe you have service." ​He gave me a dry look. "I didn't even know you knew I existed, Katherine." ​"Just check your phone, please," I snapped, my voice shaking. ​He pulled his device out and shook his head. "No service," he said, waving the black screen at me. ​"What are we going to do?" I cried, my breathing turning shallow. "Why on earth must I be stuck in

    Katherine's POV​"Your car?" I asked her, still visibly shocked.​"Yes, ma'am," she said, walking toward me with a file in her hand.​"Is that really your car?" I pressed, needing to hear it again.​"Yes, ma'am," she said, a bright smile crossing her face. "I just got it yesterday."​"Wow, Tyla," I murmured, scrambling to comport myself and swallow the rising tide of suspicion. "Congratulations."​"Thank you, ma'am. I'll go back in now," she said politely, turning away.​I stood there in a daze, watching her walk off. I decided right then to force myself not to overthink it. After all, I reasoned, at eighteen, I owned a Ferrari. Maybe she comes from money or hit some crypto boom.​I walked into the office building, but as I passed her cubicle a little later, my eyes snagged on another brand-new luxury handbag resting neatly on her desk. I deliberately forced myself to look away and push it out of my mind. It's definitely not my business, I told myself.​After an excruciatingly long da

    Katherine's POV​"Where are you coming from?" Dominic barked the second I stepped into the house.​I glanced over at the clock—it was almost 11:00 PM. I had intentionally stayed late at the office, drowning myself in work because any place was more peaceful than this gilded cage.​"I'm coming back from the office," I told him, setting my handbag onto the sofa and looking around the foyer.​"Look at me when I'm speaking to you!" he snapped, taking a long, threatening stride toward me.​Panic surged through my chest, and I reflexively shifted back in fear. "I said... I'm coming from the office," I stammered, my heart hammering against my ribs.​Dominic stopped, his dark eyes studying my terrified face for a long, agonizing second. Then, a chilling smile spread across his lips. "It's okay, I believe you," he said smoothly.​He closed the remaining distance between us and pressed a firm, possessive kiss onto my lips. "My pretty wife," he murmured against my mouth.​I forced a stiff, pract

    Ethan's POV​I had been restless ever since I heard the news that my parents had gotten back together, feeling utterly cheated by my own father.​"Hey, man," Felix said, snapping me out of my dark thoughts as he walked down the stairs into the living room. "I've been here for about thirty minutes."​"I'm really sorry. I was in the shower, and you didn't even tell me you were coming over," Felix apologized, running a hand through his hair. "Want something to drink?"​I shook my head slowly. "If I get a taste of alcohol right now, I may not be able to stop myself from drowning in it," I told him, leaning heavily back against the sofa.​"What's wrong?" he asked, genuine concern lacing his voice as he sat down across from me. "You look completely wrecked, man."​"I've just... I haven't been able to shake off this bitter feeling about my parents getting back together," I confessed honestly.​Felix let out a slight breath. "Come on, man. You told me about that nearly a week ago, and it's st

    ​Katherine's POV​It had been weeks, and the dark purple bruises across my skin had finally healed enough for me to step back out into the world. Returning to the office felt like stepping into an alternate universe after being trapped in my own home.​The moment I stepped off the elevator and walked onto my floor, I noticed a group of my female employees clustered together, giggling hushedly about something, completely unaware of my presence behind them.​"What's the ruckus all about?" I asked, leaning against the doorframe.​They all spun around in unison, their eyes widening.​"Good morning, ma'am!" they greeted together, scrambling to look productive.​"We didn't know you were coming in today," Tyla said, stepping forward with a bright smile.​"Surprise," I murmured coolly.​The rest of the staff quickly scattered back to their cubicles, but as Tyla adjusted her posture, my eyes caught on the handbag resting on her arm. I froze, looking at it in quiet shock.​It was an original Di

    Katherine's POV​I woke up with agonizing pain shooting through every inch of my body. Squinting against the light, I blinked in disbelief as I took in the scene around me—the entire master suite was overflowing with endless bouquets of fresh flowers, luxury shopping bags, and boxes of designer shoes.​I glanced over at the wall clock. It was already past noon.​Suddenly, the bedroom door swung open, and Dominic stepped inside.​"Please don't hurt me again," I gasped in pure horror, scrambling backward in fear as he approached the bed.​"Why would I hurt you, baby?" he asked smoothly, as if last night had never happened. He sat down right beside me, leaning in to press a firm kiss against my trembling lips.​"I got all of these for you," he said, gesturing around the room with a boastful wave of his hand. "I had my personal shopper put everything together while you were asleep. Surprise!"​He looked around the room proudly, waiting for a reaction, but I remained completely silent, my

    ​ I rushed downstairs without even glancing in a mirror, my heart hammering against my ribs. When I reached the living room, my jaw nearly hit the floor.​ There was Ethan Vance, looking effortlessly flawless in a casual designer shirt, completely engrossed in a conversation with my dad.​"Oh, here

    My legs shook as we climbed the private stairs into the executive box, taking our seats. Ethan sat right in the middle, with Janice to his left and me to his right.​How did I not know who he was?​I was completely speechless as the game started. The players from both schools skated onto the ice, a

    I don't care who you are. Just watch where you're going next time," I snapped, turning on my heel and marching toward the exit.​Janice scrambled to follow right behind me. "Such an annoying dude," I muttered, my cheeks still burning from his intense gaze.​"Annoying, but dangerously cute, girl," J

    ​I had spent extra hours glamming up today. It was my two-year anniversary with my boyfriend, Ashton. I clutched my bag, my heart doing little flips at the thought of kissing him on the lips.​I spun my locker humming joyfully as I turned the lock.​A picture fell out of my locker. I picked it up,
