The envelope felt heavier than it should have.

Daniella stared at it in her hands while the others remained silent around her. The old hospital corridor was still dark, the emergency lights casting faint red shadows across the walls. Victor Hale was gone, leaving behind more questions than answers, but for the first time, Daniella wasn’t interested in chasing him.

Her father had left something for her.

Something he had wanted her to find only when she was ready to know everything.

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    What Thomas said

    The memory card remained on the table long after the video ended.Nobody spoke.Daniella could still hear her father’s voice in her head. He isn’t the enemy.For years, she had believed the opposite.Christian had been the face she attached to every painful memory, every sleepless night, every lesson her uncle forced into her. She had been taught to look at Christian and see the man responsible for destroying her family.Now she knew the truth.He had never been the man she was supposed to hate.He had simply been the man they needed her to hate.Christian picked up the ledger again and turned to the page bearing his grandfather’s name.“Thomas hid something,” he said.Daniella nodded. “And Raven has been searching for it.”“Which means whatever he hid could expose them.”Marcus stepped closer. “Or destroy whatever protection they still have.”Daniella looked at him. “Where would Thomas have hidden something important?”Christian didn’t answer immediately.His eyes remained fixed on t

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The truth inside

    The envelope felt heavier than it should have.Daniella stared at it in her hands while the others remained silent around her. The old hospital corridor was still dark, the emergency lights casting faint red shadows across the walls. Victor Hale was gone, leaving behind more questions than answers, but for the first time, Daniella wasn’t interested in chasing him.Her father had left something for her.Something he had wanted her to find only when she was ready to know everything.Christian stepped closer. “Open it.”Daniella looked at him.There was something different in his eyes now. He was still guarded, still carrying the pain of everything she had done, but he hadn’t walked away. Even after discovering that she had entered his home with the intention of destroying him, he had stayed.She slowly opened the envelope.Inside was a small memory card and a folded sheet of paper.Her hands trembled as she unfolded it.Daniella,If you’re reading this, then the truth has finally caught

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The man in the dark

    The door opened another inch, and Daniella’s heart slammed against her ribs. Christian stood directly in front of her, his weapon aimed at the doorway while Marcus and Richard covered the other side of the room. Nobody spoke. The darkness beyond the door seemed to stretch endlessly into the corridor.Then the man stepped inside.The emergency lights flickered on, revealing a tall figure dressed in a dark coat. Daniella’s breath caught. She knew him. Not from the photographs and not from her uncle’s files, but from her childhood. Christian lowered his weapon slightly in disbelief.“That can’t be possible.”The man looked at him calmly. “Hello, Christian.”Richard’s face drained of color. “Victor.”Daniella immediately looked at Richard. “Victor Hale?”The man smiled. “That’s the name they gave me.”Daniella’s eyes narrowed. “They?”Victor took another step into the room. “Raven.”Christian’s expression hardened. “You were supposed to be dead.”“I was.”Richard stared at him. “I watched

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    The Original Ledger

    Daniella pressed both hands against her uncle’s wound, desperately trying to stop the bleeding. The warehouse had gone strangely quiet after the gunshot. Christian stood over them with his weapon raised, scanning every corner while Richard and Marcus moved toward the entrance.“Stay with me,” Daniella whispered. “You don’t get to leave yet.”Her uncle’s eyes opened slightly. “The ledger…”“I heard you. Where is it?”“The original ledger is… somewhere your father trusted.”“Where?”He struggled to breathe. Daniella leaned closer, desperate to hear him.“Not the church.”She frowned. “Then where?”His lips moved again, but no sound came out. Christian crouched beside her. “Daniella, we need to get him somewhere safe.”She shook her head. “He’s the only person who can tell us where it is.”Her uncle suddenly grabbed her wrist with surprising strength. “The place where you were born.”Daniella froze. “My father’s house?”“No.”His grip weakened.“Hospital.”His eyes closed.“Uncle?”Danie

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

    Daniella stood in the middle of the warehouse with her weapon aimed directly at the man who had raised her. Her uncle looked older than she remembered, but there was no mistaking him. The same eyes that had watched her grow up were now staring back at her without a trace of the warmth she once believed was there.Christian stepped closer to Daniella, but she lifted her free hand.“Don’t.”He stopped.“This is something I have to do.”Her uncle gave a bitter smile. “You always were stubborn.”Daniella’s jaw tightened. “Don’t call me that. You lost the right to speak to me like you were family the moment you killed my father.”His smile disappeared.“I know what you found.”“Then you know why I’m here.”“I know.”“Who is Raven?”Her uncle remained silent.Daniella took a step forward. “I asked you a question.”“Raven isn’t a person.”“I know that.”“Then why are you asking?”“Because you were part of it.”Her uncle’s eyes moved toward Christian.“And so was his family.”Christian’s expr

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

    The black SUV disappeared through the gates before Daniella could reach the driveway. She ran after it anyway, but Christian caught up and grabbed her arm before she could step into the road.“Get in the car.”Daniella pulled free. “That’s my uncle.”“I know.”“He knew we were coming.”“I know.”“Then stop talking and move.”Christian stared at her for a second before a faint, almost disbelieving smile crossed his face. Even now, with everything falling apart around them, Daniella still had that fire in her.They rushed into the vehicles. Marcus took the driver’s seat while Christian and Daniella climbed into the back. Richard and Evelyn followed in another car.Marcus accelerated after the SUV.Daniella watched the vehicle ahead weave through traffic. Her heart hammered against her chest. She had imagined confronting her uncle countless times, but she had always imagined doing it on her terms. She never imagined chasing him through the city while knowing that every answer she had wan

    “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

    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

  • In Love with my Father’s Serial Killer    A House full of Rules

    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

    “Stand straight. If you slouch again you’d walk out of that door and never return.” The girl behind Daniella adjusted herself immediately.“I’m sorry,” she whispered, turning her face around to make sure she didn’t embarrass herself in front of the other girls. “Sorry? Really?” another voice scof
