☠️Adrian☠️

I stay on the sofa longer than I intended.

Sophie is quiet beside me, one hand resting over her stomach while the other holds the empty glass of water.

She looks tired. But she also looks strangely content. As if my decision to stay means more to her than it should.

I glance at her. She catches me looking. “What?”

“Nothing.”

A small smile touches her lips. I look away. I didn’t come home tonight intending to sit beside my wife and watch her struggle with nausea.

I came home because I

    ☠️Adrian☠️ When I return to the bedroom, the lights are off. For a moment, I think Sophie has already gone downstairs. Then I see her. She’s asleep on my side of the bed. I stop beside the door. I don’t know why that catches me off guard. She must have been waiting for me. The thought does something strange to my chest. I close the door quietly and walk farther into the room. The mattress shifts when I sit on the edge. Sophie stirs. Her eyes open slowly. “Adrian?” “Go back to sleep.” She blinks, still half asleep. “You came back.” “Yes.” A small smile appears on her face. “You said you had something to finish.” “I did.” “And you finished?” “Yes.” She pushes herself up slightly, her hair falling across her face. “What time is it?” “Late.” I walk over to the wardrobe and pull off my jacket and shirt. Then walk back to the bed and sit. She looks at the clock, then back at me. “You should sleep.” “I will.” She studies me for a few seconds. Something

    ☠️Adrian☠️ Something is different the moment I walk through the front door. I can’t explain it. Nothing looks out of place. The house is quiet. The staff moves through their usual routines. Everything is exactly where it should be. Yet I know Sophie well enough now to notice when something has changed. And when I find her upstairs, I understand why. She is sitting on the edge of the bed, staring at nothing. The moment she sees me, her expression changes. Not fear. Not guilt. Something closer to satisfaction. “What happened?” She shakes her head. “Nothing.” I loosen my tie. That answer has become her favorite whenever she doesn’t want me asking questions. I walk farther into the room. “You’re smiling.” Her lips immediately flatten. “I’m not.” “You were.” She looks away. Interesting. I remove my jacket and place it over the back of a chair. “How was your day?” “Fine.” “That’s all?” She nods. I study her for another moment. Usually, Sophie talks when she’s nervous. Tonig

    ❤️Sophie❤️I don’t sleep much that night. Every time I close my eyes, my mind returns to the same thought. My inheritance.By morning, I have made a decision. I’m going to find out exactly what my grandparents left me.Not because I plan to give anything to Adrian. I remind myself of that several times.I’m simply tired of knowing so little about my own life. After breakfast, I sit at the dining table with my laptop open in front of me.I search through the few documents I have from my grandparents. Most of them are old. Birth certificates.Letters. Photographs.A few legal documents I never bothered reading because Dad always handled everything.I open one. Then another. Nothing. I sigh and lean back. Maybe I should call Dad.My fingers hover over his number. Then I stop. No. Not yet.I need someone who will tell me everything without giving me half the truth.I remember something my grandmother once told me.“If you ever need anything concerning what I leave you, speak to Mr Whitmor

    ❤️Sophie❤️ I close the door and lean against it. For several seconds, I don’t move. Vivian’s words keep replaying in my head. “I still want Adrian. And I'm going to get him no matter what.” I hate that they bother me. I hate even more that I believe her. She didn’t look like someone trying to scare me. She looked like someone who would do whatever it takes to get back what she has lost. Adrian. I close my eyes. Why does that bother me so much? I push away from the door and walk toward the living room. The house feels strangely quiet now. I sit on the sofa and pull my legs beneath me. I shouldn’t be thinking about Vivian. But every time I try to push her out of my mind, another thought takes her place. “I’ve spent years knowing Adrian in ways you probably don't.” I stare at the floor. She knows him. His past. His habits. Things I don’t know. And maybe that’s why I felt so small standing in front of her. She has years with him. I have weeks. I look down at my stomach. My

    ❤️Sophie❤️ I’m halfway down the stairs when the doorbell rings. I frown. Adrian isn’t home yet. At least, I don’t think he is. I walk toward the entrance and open the door. My breath catches. Vivian. For a second, neither of us speaks. She looks exactly like she did at the ballroom. Perfect hair. Perfect makeup. Perfect dress. Except her expression isn’t calm this time. Her eyes move over me slowly before settling on my face. “Sophie.” “Vivian.” Her gaze drops briefly to my stomach. Something flickers in her eyes. I don’t know what it is. She looks back at me. “Is Adrian here?” “No.” The answer comes quickly. Her jaw tightens. “He isn’t?” “No. He left earlier.” She looks past me into the house. The way she does it irritates me. “You’ve been here alone?” I raise an eyebrow. “Yes.” She nods slowly. For a moment, she says nothing. Then she looks at me again. “I need to speak to him.” “You can call him.” “I did.” “And?” “He didn’t answer.” I don’t know why that makes me

    ☠️Adrian☠️ I watch Sophie stare at the scars across my chest. She looks shocked. Not disgusted. Not afraid. Just… stunned. Her eyes move from one scar to another before finally returning to my face. “Adrian…” I button the first few buttons of my shirt. “You don’t have to look at me like that.” “How am I supposed to look at you?” I say nothing. She lowers her eyes. “I’ve never seen anything like that before.” “Most people haven’t.” Her gaze lifts again. @Does it still hurt?” “No.” “Do you remember what happened?” I look at her. “Some of it.” She waits. I don’t continue. She seems to understand that I’m not going to give her more. @I’m sorry,” she whispers. I shake my head. “You don’t have to be.” “But someone did that to you.” My jaw tightens. “They did worse to my family.” The room becomes silent. Sophie watches me carefully. “Are you going to find them?” I don’t hesitate. “Yes.” The answer comes so easily that she blinks. “You know who they are?” “No.” “Then how w
