JANICE

The supermarket incident happened two days ago, and the weight of everything still sat heavy on my chest like a stone I couldn’t remove.

Aisha had been amazing—patient, protective, and funny in her normal dry way that made even the worst situations feel slightly less terrible. This morning was a different thing entirely. I needed air… real air, and I needed it alone.

“I’m going for a quick walk,” I shouted, slipping away before anyone could say anything. Aisha was busy with Nancy and Jam

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   Maybe this was the end

    JANICEPeople got married for various reasons. Love. Couldn’t do any better. Have a child together. My parents got married because they loved each other… They even died together.I was getting married because if I didn’t, my dearest father would keep to his promise and kill everything I held dear and then me.Or maybe he wouldn’t. I was too important.But Alexander Kane would make my life a living nightmare than stop any wedding from happening. After all, I was his human incubator for healthy, legitimate heirs.The old prick.I fanned myself with the delicate hand fan even faster, hot despite the cool breeze coming from the AC in the car. Nancy shifted closer to me, looking absolutely adorable in her pink bridesmaid dress. A shame she wore that for this shame, but I couldn’t focus on that. I kept my attention on the man in front of us, who insisted on using the same car with us, who kept his eyes on the phone in his hand.Something about not wanting us to have any ideas of escaping.E

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   Finally time to get her back

    CALDERWhile Lucian drowned himself in those strategy sessions that he didn’t really talk about and Aiden buried his guilt under mountains of paperwork, I did the opposite.I threw myself into everything that wouldn’t let me think.Racing and fighting.The roar of the engines, the hard feel of someone’s punch when they could land one, the burn of rubber on the asphalt, the adrenaline that drowned everything else—that was my escape. I left the business side of my life to my managers, who still reported to me weekly like clockwork. Numbers, deals, profits… none of it mattered when Janice was still trapped in that bastard’s mansion.When I wasn’t doing that, I spent every spare moment researching ways to get her back. There were hidden passages. Bribes. Hacking security systems. Every lead turned into a dead end. Every plan crumbled under the weight of Alexander Kane’s reach and if I was being honest, it was driving me fucking insane. Making me more irrational than usual. Sleep was nonex

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   This saturday

    AIDENAnother call.Another meeting.No single time to rest in between.Once again, I kept myself buried in work because I needed to outrun my own shadow. If I stopped moving, those thoughts would catch me and then I would have to face them. I couldn’t do that. Janice’s face when she sacrificed herself to save us from certain death because we were too stupid and went for a mission without having back up in place. One of the biggest flaws in our plans. Sure, we hadn’t thought the man would be there, but backup was backup. It came in handy when needed. The way she couldn’t bear to look at us as her entire body shook. That woman had thrown herself deeper into the monster’s world for us.Now I was drowning in a guilt so deep that was sure to suffocate and eventually kill me.So I worked. I stayed away from Calder and Lucian—the silence only made the gap between us grow deeper and deeper after that last fight.My assistant knocked and entered my office, holding yet another thick folder.

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   An Alliance

    LUCIANAs a leader of one of the oldest families in organized crime in this country, getting escorted out of the Kane estate with a gun aimed at the back of my head after the woman I cared for agreed to a union with a member of the Anderson family, was surprisingly not the only hurtful thing that happened to me that night.No.The brother I had done my best to rescue… the stupid idiot who allowed himself to be captured in the first place escaped from the hospital the next day.It had been two months since that night and it still fucked me up.I took a drag from the cigarette, letting the smoke fill me up from the insides. An old habit that just had to resurface. “Get the fuck out of my house,” I said, keeping my eyes on the man opposite me, who looked like he hadn’t seen the light of day since he escaped that day.Injuries covered every part of his exposed skin—some covered up, some open, and all releasing a pungent odor. I couldn’t even fathom the kind of nonsense this man had been u

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   Dinner

    JANICE“Tonight, we’ll be having dinner at the Anderson’s estate,” Alexander announced during breakfast, standing at the entrance of the room like some sort of stalker. He kept those cruel eyes on the little notebook he kept clutched in his hand, not bothering to look at the woman whose life he was constantly destroying. “They expressed their desire to meet you before the wedding.”A wedding we were still making plans for. A marriage to a man I had not seen for the last two months.Not that I minded.I swallowed the last piece of toast on my plate, trying my best not to roll my eyes. “I don’t want to meet…”“I’ve made arrangements for a new dress which will be sent to your room hours before.” Alexander interrupted, eyes still on that notebook. If I could strangle a man, I would. “All your lessons for the day have been canceled so you can go through that folder on the Anderson family. We wouldn’t want you to make any… mistakes. People take note of that. People get killed because of tha

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   Never be a better sister

    JANICEMarry Tam?I couldn’t believe I just agreed to get married to Thomas Anderson, a.k.a Tam, my tutor—whom I knew nothing about. And bear an heir because that was the only way I could make my so-called father happy enough to let them go.It was the right thing to do… it was the only thing to do, given the situation.“Janice, darling, you can’t do that…”“Over my dead body!”“If you think I’d let you do that, you must be mistaken. Janice…”I felt the light brush of Calder’s fingers at the edge of my elbow—the last physical attempt to stop me but it was too late. I walked straight to the other side of the room, doing my best not to flinch when Tam wrapped his arm around my shoulder, holding me in place. His nasty cologne enveloped me, almost choking me with the harsh scent. It was the right thing to do. I wasn’t going to let them get hurt.“Please… please just go.”All I could do was watch as four of Alexander’s burly and sour looking men marched behind them at the tilt of their lea

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   Hello, brat

    JANICE"What happened?"I sat across from the interviewer, my fingers loosely clasped in my lap. My posture was still straight, but it was no longer stiff."...and that's when I realized the system they were using was a completely outdated one," I laughed lightly. "I mean, I spent more time fixing

    JANICEI stood in front of the cracked full-length mirror in the tiny bedroom I had shared with Nancy, before she became a permanent resident at the hospital, tugging at the hem of my only decent interview skirt.“When on earth did I become so tall? And so fat!!”The black skirt was two years old a

    JANICE“Ughhh, my back!” I stretched a bit, trying to find a more comfortable spot on the chair beside Nancy’s hospital bed. My phone screen was the only source of light in the dimly lit private room.One would think a hospital with such high fees would have better chairs.The steady beep of the he

  • Just One Night to Own Me, Daddies   The Business Brothers

    JANICEThe Business Brothers did not let me do anything else after I said those words. My heart hammered against my ribs as we entered the sleek black SUV and it pulled away from the club.The moment the door closed, the outside world immediately disappeared.I sat sandwiched between Calder and Luc
