    The electricity of the kiss is still buzzing like a live wire against my lips, but the sudden, cold splash of reality hits my brain a second later. My instincts—the ones that have kept me breathing through this entire nightmare—slay the romance in an instant. I pull away from him. Sharply. "Ow, da

  • He Chose His Step Mother, I Chose His Uncle   Chapter 233

    A ragged, choking sob rips out of my throat, and I completely break down, burying my face into my hands as my entire body shakes with tears. Deckard was a fraud. A calculated, narcissistic, disgusting fraud. He was the imposter, and I spent three whole years of my life letting him emotionally manip

    He doesn't reply. He looks away from me, his gaze drifting back out toward the crashing waves and the open sky. For a long, agonizing moment, the only sound between us is the rhythmic roar of the tide. He doesn't say he forgives me, and he doesn't tell me I'm wrong. Instead, he stretches his arm

    The car door clicks open, and the salty, sharp scent of the ocean instantly floods my senses. I let out a low groan, my muscles locking up as Owen gently hooks his arms underneath my shoulders to guide me out of the passenger seat. Every single inch of my body is actively screaming at me.

    "Sydney... I stepped down from my position at the firm," I say quietly, the words falling like lead weights into the dark space between us.

    Slowly, deliberately, I run my fingers through her soft hair, tangling my hand in the strands, silently vowing to myself that no one will ever lay a malicious finger on her again as long as I am drawing breath. We stay like that for a long stretch of time, existing entirely in the quiet sanctuary o

    Nicholas is leaning heavily against the wall, looking entirely bewildered, while Owen is standing a few feet away, swaying slightly with his hands shoved in his pockets. "It... it attacked me," Nicholas mutters, pointing a shaky finger at the debris. "The vase. It moved. I’m certain of it." "You’r

    "He froze every single one of my personal accounts, leaving me with zero access to the money I earned long before I met him," I say, looking at the judge. "And when I didn't crawl back, the threats started. He told me he’d ruin my reputation with every studio in the city. He said I’d never work in t
