MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. TBC
The hospital room felt too small for all the fear packed inside it. Thirteen years had passed since that warm September afternoon in the garden when life felt perfect. Thirteen years of laughter, chaos, love, and building the family I once only dreamed about. Now everything was hanging by a thread. I hadn’t slept properly in days. My clothes smelled like antiseptic and stale coffee, but I refused to leave Ocean’s side. Not even for a minute. He lay in the bed, tubes and wires covering the strong body I had leaned on for so long. The Mafia king who once ruled with quiet power now looked exhausted and frail. The cancer had come out of nowhere and torn through him like wildfire. The doctors had been honest... it was only a matter of days unless something changed. Our children stood around the bed like silent guards. Storm, sixteen now, stood tall with his father’s jaw and my stubborn eyes. He hadn’t cried once. He kept clenching and unclenching his fists, like he could fight the ill
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. EPILOGUE
Lola’s POV Storm is three now, and he’s decided the top of the garden wall is his new office. Not sitting on it like a normal kid... no, he’s standing up there, arms out for balance, chin set exactly like his dad’s when he’s made up his mind. I’m down in the garden, eyes darting around to make sure every adult in sight is watching this absolute legend in action. “Storm,” I call up. “Get down from there.” He looks at me, makes that little grunt he does when he’s thinking. “That wasn’t a request, buddy.” He considers it for a second, then plops down on his bum instead of standing. Total compromise. He shoots me this proud little grin like he’s just negotiated world peace. He’s got Ocean’s face, my stubborn streak, and Hannah’s wicked sense of humor. We knew he’d be a handful. We were right. “Down,” I say again, firmer this time. He swings his legs over and drops straight into Ezra’s waiting arms on the other side. Of course Ezra was there. Of course Storm knew it. We all play al
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. RAIN
Lola's POV Rain arrived on a Sunday in December. Not early this time, not in some hidden cottage with gunfire popping outside and Hannah gripping my hand through every contraction while we waited for a doctor who was an hour away. Not scared out of my mind and not alone. This time Ocean was right there from the very first one. I woke him at four in the morning, just touched his shoulder and whispered that it was time. He was up before I even finished the sentence, wide awake like he'd been waiting for it. No groggy transition. Just instantly there. "How far apart?" he asked. "Twelve minutes." "Pain level?" "Manageable, it's still early." He nodded, got dressed fast, made the calls to Garrett and Hannah. All of it done in under ten minutes with that sharp focus of a man who'd been through this once and wasn't about to waste time figuring it out again. I stood in the bathroom, hands on the counter, watching my face in the mirror while another contraction rolled through me. I b
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. PROPOSAL AND WEDDING
Lola's POV Ocean proposes on a Tuesday evening in September. Not on one knee. Not with a prepared speech or some elaborate production like the stories you hear. He does it the way he does everything that actually matters. Directly. Without ceremony. In the kitchen after dinner, while Storm is asleep upstairs and the house has settled into that deep, comfortable quiet. I’m washing dishes and he’s drying them, the rhythm we fell into months ago without ever talking about it. He sets down the plate he’s been drying. "Marry me again," he says. I turn to look at him. He’s leaning against the counter, arms folded, wearing that steady expression he gets when he’s said something he means completely and is waiting to see what I’ll do with it. "We’re already married," I say. "I know." "Ocean..." "That ceremony was twelve people in a room and vows that only meant I will keep you alive and nothing else." He holds my gaze. "I want to do it right this time. Properly. With the people who m
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. RAIN
Lola's POV I find out on a Thursday morning in July. Storm is fast asleep for his nap, and the house has slipped into that particular kind of quiet it only gets during these stolen hours. Everything holds its breath. I can actually hear the low hum of the fridge and the faint creak of the floorboards settling, and I remember what silence feels like without a six-month-old attached to my hip. Usually I use this time to race through the million little tasks that get impossible once he’s awake. Today I do something different. I’ve been ignoring the signs for two full weeks. Not on purpose, or maybe it was on purpose. There is this specific way of ignoring something where you know exactly what you’re doing. You’ve made a quiet, private decision to keep shoving it aside until the moment comes when you can’t anymore. That’s exactly where I’ve been living for two weeks. The bone-deep tiredness I blamed on Storm’s sleep regression. The nausea I told myself came from something I ate. Tha
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. VARIOUS SCENES
Sophia I fell head over heels for Storm Moretti on a Wednesday afternoon in March. Not the polite, fake kind of love adults do when they’re supposed to find a baby cute. The real deal. The sudden, goofy, can’t-help-it kind that hits you out of nowhere. He was four months old the first time I properly held him. Lola brought him over to the Romano estate for lunch. Just the two of them, like the old days when she used to stay with us. But everything felt different now. She carried herself differently. Walked through rooms like she owned the ground under her feet. That old wariness she used to have was gone, replaced by this calm confidence of a woman who finally knows where she stands. She put Storm in my arms. He looked at me real serious, like he was sizing me up. Then he made this little sound. I glanced at Lola. “What does that mean?” “Approval, I think,” she said. “Probably.” “He’s got a whole bunch of sounds. I’m still learning what they all mean.” I looked back at Stor
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. NOTHING LEFT TO SAY
Ethan's POV She won't shoot. That's what I know as I move toward her. That's what I know for sure. Four years of marriage and I know Lola better than she knows herself. She will not pull that trigger. She's exhausted, she just gave birth, she's holding a baby, and her hands might look steady righ
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. HI STORM
Lola's POV The pain wakes me up at three in the morning. Not the slow, building kind that gives you time to wake up properly and figure out what’s happening. This one hits hard and fast. A contraction that grabs my lower back and stomach like a vice and yanks me straight out of sleep. I don’t ev
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. RECORDING
Third Person The recording hits seven inboxes at midnight. By one in the morning, three of them have been opened. By two, the calls start coming in. Not panicked calls, these aren’t men who panic. They’ve been in this world long enough that staying calm under pressure is just how they opera
MARRIED TO MY EX-FATHER IN LAW. TWO MONTHS
THIRD PERSON POV It takes nearly two months to put the damn thing together, piece by grinding piece. Not because the escape itself is all that complicated. Ocean has been figuring out ways to slip out of tight corners since he was in his twenties, back when the world felt smaller and his body di
