The room Ross had assigned me was beautiful in the way a coffin is beautiful—lined with silk, expensive to maintain, and impossible to leave. The Bane estate was a fortress of glass and steel, a stupid cage where the air felt thin and every mirror seemed to be watching me.

Ross didn't lock my door anymore; he didn't have to. He had the confession, he had the blueprints, and he had the world convinced that I was his accomplice.

I stood in the expansive marble bathroom, the morning sun mocking me through the skylight. My stomach did a slow, familiar roll, but it wasn't from the stress or the lack of sleep. I looked down at the plastic stick on the counter. Two blue lines.

I sank onto the floor, my back against the cold tub. I was pregnant.

The timeline was a jagged line through my heart. This child was Kane’s. It was from that night in the sunroom, the night he’d promised to protect me, the night I’d finally let myself believe in a future. Now, that future was a crime scene, and th

  • MARRIED UNTIL MONDAY   Finally Free.

    KANEFive years is a long time for a man who measures his life in fiscal quarters. In the city, the name Callahan had become synonymous with a quiet, impenetrable power. I had rebuilt the empire from the ashes Zane left behind, turning Project Apex into a skyline-defining reality. I moved through boardrooms like a shadow, a man who commanded the tides of the market but never felt the warmth of the sun. I had the crown, the chairmanship, and a seat at every table of consequence.I was also the loneliest man in the world.The manor had become a museum of things I no longer touched. I kept Aria’s sunroom exactly as it was, the air there tasting of dust and the faint, lingering ghost of cedar. Every Monday morning, I sat at the head of the boardroom table, and every Monday, I looked at the empty space at my side. I had won the war, but the victory had been a hollow thing, a trophy made of cold, unyielding marble.Then came this Monday.I was sitting in the back of my car, the city blurrin

  • MARRIED UNTIL MONDAY   I Love You.

    KANEThe manor was too quiet. It was the kind of silence that had teeth, gnawing at the corners of the rooms until the shadows felt heavier than the furniture. I stood by the floor-to-ceiling windows in the library, the silver gavel resting on the desk behind me. Outside, the rain had stopped, leaving the estate draped in a thick, suffocating fog.I heard the front doors open. There was no forceful bang this time, no police boots, no frantic shouting. Just the soft, rhythmic click of heels on marble.I didn't move. I couldn't. My heart was a lead weight, dragging my chest down. I waited until the footsteps reached the library door and stopped. I didn't need to turn around to know she was there. I could feel her."I’m just here for the rest of my things, Kane," Aria said.Her voice was steady. That was the hardest part. There was no tremor, no lingering rage, just a flat, exhausted finality. It was the sound of someone who had already moved on while they were still standing in the room

  • MARRIED UNTIL MONDAY   I’m A Callahan.

    AUTHOR'S POVThe rain had turned into a relentless, icy deluge by the time the prisoner transport van pulled away from the precinct. The city lights blurred into long, distorted smears of neon against the black asphalt. Inside the reinforced steel cage of the vehicle, Zane Callahan sat huddled, his hands cuffed to a belly chain, his expensive suit now a wrinkled rag of defeat. But even in the dim, flickering light of the cabin, his eyes hadn't lost their feverish, manic edge. He was already rehearsing the names of the judges he could bribe and the high-priced fixers who could turn a double homicide into a mistrial."You think this is it?" Zane rasped, his voice bouncing off the metal walls. He looked at the two guards sitting in the front, their silhouettes dark against the windshield. "My brother is a coward. He doesn't have the stomach to finish this. He needs me alive so he can feel superior."The guards didn't answer. The one in the passenger seat didn't even turn his head."I'm a

  • MARRIED UNTIL MONDAY   I Had Everything And Nothing At All.

    The crack of the gunshot was the final string of today's chaos, but the man’s aim was hurried—jolted by the closing weight of the security team that had been trailing Miller’s unit. The bullet shattered a decorative glass vase behind the podium, showering the mahogany in a fine, crystalline dust. Before the gunman could chamber another round, he was swarmed, his face pressed into the marble floor by four guards.I didn't blink. I didn't even flinch. I just stood in front of Aria, my pulse a slow, heavy thrum in my ears. The adrenaline had reached a plateau where nothing could move me. I watched them drag the man—a Bane loyalist, a leftover piece of a dead man’s vendetta—out of the room. The silence that followed was different. It was final.Marcus stepped forward, his eyes fixed on the empty chair at the head of the table. He picked up the heavy, silver-tipped gavel that had belonged to my father, and then to Rohan. He held it out to me, his hand steady for the first time all day."Th

  • MARRIED UNTIL MONDAY   I Just Wanted To Be A Callahan.

    KANEThe boardroom was no longer a temple of commerce; it had become an arena of raw, jagged exposure. The air was thick with the copper tang of adrenaline and the stifling silence of a dozen people holding their collective breath. Zane stood frozen at the podium, his fingers still clawing at the empty air where the flash drive had been a moment ago. He looked like a man who had stepped off a cliff and was only just realizing there was no ground beneath him.Aria didn't falter. She stood in her white wedding dress, a figure of crystalline purity against the dark wood of the room. She reached into the manila envelope and pulled out a stack of notarized documents, sliding them across the table toward Marcus."These are the off-shore incorporation papers for 'Apex Global Holdings,'" Aria said, her voice steady enough to cut glass. "A shell company Zane created three months ago. You’ll find that the primary shareholders aren’t the Callahan Group, but Zane Callahan and a private trust owne

  • MARRIED UNTIL MONDAY   The Baby Is Safe.

    KANEThe boardroom of the Callahan Group was usually a place of high-stakes energy, but today it felt like a mausoleum. The air was stagnant, heavy with the scent of floor wax and the silent, judging presence of the men and women who held my life in their pens.I sat at the far end of the long mahogany table, my hands clasped tightly in front of me to hide the tremor I couldn't quite suppress. Across from me, Zane looked like he was already wearing the crown. He was leaned back, his legs crossed, a smug, oily smile playing on his lips as he whispered something to Sibil, who sat beside him in a dress that cost more than a small house.Rohan’s chair was empty, a gaping hole at the head of the table that no one dared to look at. The grief was there, a dull ache behind my eyes, but it was buried under a mountain of cold, hard pragmatism. I knew what was coming.I knew that in a few minutes, the board would call for the presentation of Project Apex, and I would have nothing to show but a b
