The morning after Daniella watched the USB files, the mansion felt heavier than usual. The air was thick with unspoken tension, the kind that settled in your bones and made every shadow feel like a threat. Daniella sat at the kitchen island, staring at her untouched coffee, the USB drive burning a hole in her pocket. The videos had replayed in her mind all night Angela’s cold calculations, the bribes, the threats. The betrayal cut deeper than she had expected, stirring a storm of rage and fear t

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The man who watched

    Daniella stood completely still.For twenty years, Samuel Reed had existed only as a name buried in old photographs and fragments of conversations. She had never expected to see the man himself, let alone have him appear at the very place where she had spent her childhood being trained by the man who murdered her father.Christian moved toward the window.“Stay here.”Daniella shook her head.“No.”He looked at her.“If that’s Samuel Reed, I’m going with you.”Christian studied her for a moment before nodding.Marcus moved ahead of them, weapon ready, while the others secured the room. Daniella followed Christian out of the training house and into the cold night air.The man standing beside the vehicle did not move.He was older than he had been in the photograph, his hair almost completely gray, his face marked by years of exhaustion. He wore a dark coat and held both hands where they could be seen.When his eyes landed on Daniella, something changed in his expression.He looked at h

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The locked room

    The old training house stood in complete darkness when Daniella arrived.She remained inside the car for several seconds, staring through the windshield at the building that had once been the center of her entire childhood. Every wall held a memory she wished she could forget. Every room reminded her of the person she had been forced to become.Christian stepped out beside her and closed the car door.“You don’t have to go in if you’re not ready.”Daniella looked at him.“I’ve been ready for this since the day I found out my uncle lied to me.”Christian nodded.“Then we do it together.”Marcus and his men spread out around the property while Christian and Daniella entered through the same door they had used before.The training house was silent.Daniella switched on her flashlight and slowly walked through the corridor.She remembered being seven years old, standing in this same hallway while her uncle shouted at her because she had refused to continue training. She remembered the bru

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The witness from the past

    The lights went out.Daniella froze.For a few seconds, the abandoned hospital disappeared into complete darkness. She could hear Evelyn breathing beside her, Christian shifting his position in front of them, and somewhere in the distance, the faint sound of footsteps moving through the corridor.“Don’t move,” Christian whispered.Daniella tightened her grip on the photograph.Someone was still inside the hospital.Someone who knew they were there.Someone who knew about the letter.A metallic click came from the hallway.Christian raised his weapon.“Show yourself.”No answer.Then a shadow moved across the doorway.Christian fired.The muzzle flash briefly illuminated the corridor, but whoever had been there was already gone.“Christian,” Daniella whispered.“I’m here.”She reached for his hand and found it.Evelyn was still crouched beside the wall, pressing her injured shoulder.Daniella looked down at the photograph.The man standing behind her father and uncle was still there, f

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The letter he left behind

    The gunshot shattered the room.Christian reacted instantly, throwing himself over Daniella as another bullet tore through the wall behind them. Glass from the broken window scattered across the floor, and Evelyn cried out as she fell against the old cabinet.“Stay down!” Christian shouted.Daniella’s heart hammered against her ribs. She pressed herself against the floor, barely breathing as another shot echoed somewhere outside.Then she heard Marcus shouting from the corridor.“Move! They’re on the east side!”Gunfire answered him.Christian lifted his head slightly, listening.“Marcus has them distracted.”Daniella looked across the room.Evelyn was lying on the floor, one hand pressed against her shoulder. Blood seeped between her fingers.“Aunt Evelyn.”Daniella started toward her.Christian caught her wrist.“Wait.”“She’s bleeding.”“I know. But we don’t know if there’s another shooter inside.”Daniella looked toward the doorway.Nothing moved.She pulled her wrist free.“We ca

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The hospital

    Daniella stared at the message on her phone for several seconds without moving.The location Evelyn had sent was one she knew too well.The old hospital.Her fingers tightened around the phone as memories she had spent years trying to bury began forcing their way back into her mind. White walls. Harsh lights. The smell of blood and disinfectant. Her father’s voice. Her uncle’s arms around her small body. And the sound of a gunshot that had divided her childhood into a before and an after.Evelyn had asked her to come there.After everything Daniella had discovered, she knew better than to believe it was a simple meeting.Christian sat beside her in the car, watching her carefully. He reached for the phone and read the message.“You’re not going alone,” he said.Daniella looked at him. “I wasn’t planning to.”“You were thinking about it.”She sighed. “Maybe.”Christian handed the phone back.“Daniella.”“I know.”“No, you don’t.” His voice was calm, but there was something wounded bene

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The sister he didn’t trust

    Daniella stared at the name on the letter until the words blurred before her eyes. Evelyn Cruz. Her aunt. Her father’s sister. The woman who had appeared after all these years claiming she had tried to protect Daniella and had witnessed the aftermath of Derrick’s murder. The woman who had given them information about her uncle and helped them understand pieces of the past. Now her father’s own handwriting was telling her not to trust her.Christian took the letter from Daniella and read the final sentence again. His expression became unreadable. “We don’t accuse her yet.”Daniella looked at him. “You think my father was wrong?”“No. I think we need to understand why he wrote this before we decide what Evelyn actually did.”“She knew about my uncle. She knew about the man he called Victor. She knew about the night my father died. She knew I was being trained. How much more do we need?”“Proof,” Christian answered quietly.Daniella looked away. He was right. She had spent too many years

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    Smoke under Silence

    “Boss, are you okay?”David's voice sounded distant, more like it was coming from under water. Christian didn’t answer immediately. His fingers tightened around the glass, his jaw clenched as he stared into thin air unfocused. He wasn’t ok, he couldn’t take it anymore, his

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    Humiliation and Heat

    The hot liquid hit her skin before her brain could process what was happening. “Aharhhhh!” Daniella staggered back instantly, the tray slipping slightly from her grip as the coffee soaked into her cloth. She glared at him hard, tears building up in her eye lids, a smirk escaping her lips, of

    Daniella's eyes jerked open as tears rolled down from them, she slowly wiped the tears away trying to clear her vision still figuring out where she was, her brain relaxed and flicked back, of course this was her first night in this house. She yawned uncontrollably as she stretched her way out of

    The door knob twisted sideways, Daniella froze, for a moment she felt her entire world crumbling right in front of her, the job hadn't even started yet and now she was going to be caught holy father. How did she not hear his car coming in? And just then her instinct kicked in, her brain acting fas
