Chapter 197: Hiding In Plain Sight

Reese

“A doll. A freaking life-sized doll was buried in Penelope’s coffin.”

I paced the dark stretch of cemetery grass while the diggers continued working on the second grave, phone pressed hard against my ear.

The night air was thick with the smell of turned earth. My boots sank slightly into the soft ground with every step.

Roman’s voice came through the phone, already on edge. “What do you mean a doll was buried?”

“It’s a fucking doll, Roman!” I snapped,

Oh snap this is crazy! Both Dahlia and Penny are making these Blackwood men lose their minds. Ryan is sick if he knew and orchestrated all this. Roman is gonna go ballistic and Reese is not far behind. Reginald hates the Hart family, but I believe it’s the Valentine family that’s truly a curse.

  • From Lies To Loyalty    Pure Murder

    Chapter 209: Pure Murder LizzieI did not wait for her to finish shaking.My palm connected with Bella’s face hard enough to snap her head sideways. Heat bloomed across my hand. Her cheek went red almost instantly.I did not stop.My fingers tangled in her hair and yanked her head back. I had the height advantage and I used every inch of it, forcing her to look up at me while tears already gathered in her eyes.“Madam—stop—it hurts—” The words came out broken. “I don’t know anything about what you’re accusing me of.”I slapped her again. Then I shoved her face down against the nearest stretch of table hard enough that the impact rattled the remaining cutlery.“It was you,” I said. My voice sounded foreign even to myself. “You planted those cameras in our bedroom. Didn’t you?”“No, madam!” She struggled, hands scrabbling at my wrists. “I don’t know anything about that—”A short, ugly laugh left me. “You don’t know.” I reached sideways without looking and closed my fingers around Ramse

  • From Lies To Loyalty    A Willing One

    Chapter 208: A Willing One Lizzie Breakfast was like a loaded gun left on the table.The dining hall felt wrong the moment I stepped into it. Too quiet. Too careful. The kind of quiet that meant everyone had woken up carrying something sharp and no one wanted to be the first to bleed. It didn't take long to figure out that we all woke up on the wrong side of the bed. Lauren and Quentin were seated today, which was also another point to take into consideration. Their presence shifted the air, as if the house had decided the usual audience was not enough for whatever was about to unfold.The maids had prepared a full spread—eggs, fruit, warm bread, the kind of presentation they always did when they tried to pretend that this family was normal. No one was actually eating like it. Forks scraped. Knives clicked. The sounds were small and loud at the same time. Only Ryan looked genuinely pleased with the morning, that little half-smile of his suggested he was either oblivious or enter

  • From Lies To Loyalty    Face Down

    Chapter 207: Face Down Lizzie “What?” The laugh that left me sounded wrong even to my own ears. It was too bright and came out too quick. It was the kind of sound people made when their heart was trying to climb out of their chest and they needed somewhere safe to put it. “No way. I can’t be pregnant.” Reese didn’t smile with me. He just watched my face. “Why not?”I turned toward him fully. “I’ve got the implant. It doesn’t just fail.” The words came out harder than I meant them to. They sounded less like fact and more like a wish I was trying to nail to the wall. He studied me for a long second. “So we’re still here,” he said quietly. “You don’t want it to be true.”He was right. I was still having a hard time with it.I touched his arm anyway, needing the contact more than the argument. “That’s not it. I’m just saying the implant is still in. That’s the entire point of having one.” I tried to smile.“You didn’t have to say it like that.”“Like what?” “Don’t do that.” His v

  • From Lies To Loyalty    I’m Disgusted

    Chapter 206: I'm Disgusted Lizzie Reese had been gone too long. It felt like days. I knew the conversation with Ramsey mattered. I understood why he had left the room with that tension in his shoulders. None of that stopped the restless, irrational ache that kept circling under my ribs. Before the manor, his attention had belonged entirely to me. His wife. Now there were brothers and sisters and entire wings of family crap pulling at him, and I was left pacing the same stretch of floor like a wife whose husband was at war. It was selfish. I knew that too. Knowing it did not make the loneliness quieter. I was selfish with Reese. I knew that as well. He's my husband. He belonged to me first. Everyone else should come second. I walked from the window to the bed and back again, inventing and discarding excuses to barge into Ramsey’s room. They wouldn’t mind, would they? I could claim I needed water. Or that I had heard something strange. Or that I simply missed my husband’s face

  • From Lies To Loyalty    Ease Up

    Chapter 205: Ease UpRoman I knew the second I stepped back into the bedroom that Sav would be waiting with questions. She had heard enough of my voice on the call with Reese to know something was wrong. The shift in tone. The request for privacy. She never missed those things.She was sitting up against the headboard when I came in. The twins were finally down in the cot beside the bed. Andrea had fought sleep the longest, the way she always did, but sleep won. As always. Sav’s eyes tracked me the moment the door closed. “Roman. Is everything okay?” The worry was already in her voice. “Why did Reese sound like that? Why did he need to talk to you alone? Did something happen? Is Lizzie alright?”I let out a slow breath and pinched the bridge of my nose as I crossed to her. Her gaze never left me. Searching. The kind of look that made lying feel impossible even when the truth was going to hurt.How was I supposed to say this to her? She was pregnant with my child. There was no way

  • From Lies To Loyalty    He’s Mine First

    Chapter 204: He's Mine First Reese The weapon was matte black, probably expensive, and already in his hand as if it had been within reach the entire conversation. The look in his eyes was the kind that made people step back without knowing why. There was no theatrics in it. Only a flat, focused promise.“Sav’s ex once blackmailed her with a sex tape of the two of them,” Roman said, as if continuing a lecture he had given himself a thousand times. “You think you understand what that did to her. You don’t. You know pieces. You do not know the full shape of what it took to get her out of that darkness.” I kept silent. The thought of what he was about to do to avenge his wife was frightening. But I was also proud of him. I was solidly behind him.I would do worse if it were Lizzie being spied on. I'd make sure Randall bled. A lot. “You do not know how long she lived pretending to be alive. You do not know how carefully we built the version of her that isn't afraid to react. And this—
