Chloe's POV

The words kept replaying in my head like a song I couldn't turn off.

He killed your mother.

I stared at Derek across the table, the half-eaten breakfast between us going cold. My hands wouldn't stop shaking, so I pressed them flat against my thighs like that could pin them down.

"Explain," I said. "Right now. And don't you dare give me the kiddies rated version. I wanna know everything."

Derek didn't flinch. He never flinched. That was the thing about him — the calmer he got, the wo

  • My Ex Husband's Regret    Get Rid Of Him

    Third Pov"Stop it. Just stop." Chloe stepped between Nathan and Derek with her palm flat against her husband's chest. "Behave yourself, Nathan. One minute. Can you give me one minute of you behaving like a person?" He had pounced on Derek as if he could take on the giant man. "Behave?" Nathan laughed, and it came out high and wrong. "You've ganged up on me, Chloe. Look at this. Look around you. There's four of you and one of me and you're telling me to behave? A day ago you were a nobody….a wife coming home to cook my dinner, and now you've got bodyguards and you're telling me how to behave myself?""A day ago I was nobody?" Chloe repeated. Her voice was quiet, which should have warned him. "Yea, you're right. I was the fool who loved you and cared for you and just…I kept hoping that maybe, just maybe, you would confess it all to me and turn a fucking new leaf!""What? What are you—" his face turned soured."Fake pills, Nathan. One a day so we could have a baby." She watched his fac

  • My Ex Husband's Regret    Not My Sister

    Third Person POV Ella had never seen Chloe move that fast. One second they were curled on the guest room sofa with tea and she had excused her for just a second, then the next Chloe was on her feet, phone in hand, bag over her shoulder before Ella could even ask what was wrong. "He's with Bianca," Chloe said. Her voice was flat in a way that was worse than crying. "He sent a picture. He's at her house." "Okay." Ella was already grabbing her keys. "Okay. We're going. Right now. Ella, get the car—" She stopped. Chloe was already halfway to the door. "Chloe, wait." Ella caught her arm. "You're not walking into that alone. Let me call my brother." "No. No calls. He'll talk, he'll stall, he'll be calm, he'll make it make sense. And I can't hear him make sense right now." Chloe's eyes were red-rimmed and burning. "I just need to get to my sister before he says one more word to her." Ella looked at her for a long second. Then she pulled out her phone and dialed. "Derek," she

  • My Ex Husband's Regret    The Picture

    Chloe's POV Ella's guest room was bigger than my entire old apartment. I set my bags down by the closet, sat on the edge of the cloud-like bed, and only then, in the quiet, did what I'd been avoiding since morning. I turned my phone on and found a series of calls from Nathan. Great, I'd been expecting that from him. Nathan had a way of doing something terrible to you, and making you feel bad at the end of the day. Nathan: We need to talk. ASAP. Call me back, Chloe. This isn't what you think. Not what I think? I actually laughed, sitting there alone in a stranger's beautiful room. Naomi must have called him the second security dragged her out of that mall, crying her pretty pink tears, and now he wanted to "talk." Now he wanted to act smart and calm and reasonable, the way he always did when he was about to lose something. I didn't reply. I watched the screen go dark, then put the phone face down on the nightstand. Ella knocked twice and came in before I answered, carrying two gl

  • My Ex Husband's Regret    The Mask Comes Off

    Chloe's POVEvery head was turned toward us now. This wasn't what I wanted, but fuck! Naomi was just such a bitch!Naomi stepped back with palms up in surrender. Her voice was already switching to that soft, angelic tone she'd perfected over the years. "Chloe, honey — I don't know what you think you heard, but this is insane. People are looking at us.""Oh, people are looking," I said. My voice was shaking, but not from fear anymore. "Let's give them something to look at. Let's go back to my birthday night, shall we? The party you helped Nathan plan for me. The cake you picked out. Do you remember where you were while I was drugged and crashed on the floor like some pathetic loser??"Her smile didn't falter, but her eyes did a quick flicker."Because I remember," I went on, stepping closer. "I remember walking in on you sleeping with my husband. I mean I waited for you tocome clean, to tell me he made you do it or something. I dunno, I just…! Anything, Naomi! How dare you!" My push on

  • My Ex Husband's Regret    Everyone Is Staring

    Third PovWhen Ella finally left, waving and already texting outfit options before the doors closed, the bedroom went quiet.Derek leaned against the dresser, arms crossed. "So, you like her. That's good." He nodded to himself. "Ella's a lot, but she's the most loyal person I know. Living with her, though, terrible, terrible idea. She doesn't sleep, she has opinions about everything in your fridge, she once—"Chloe started to laugh, cutting Derek off. When thick brows furrowed, questioning what might had suddenly seemed funny toget, Chloe just raised her head up high. "Oh come on now, Derek. I mean, you'd say literally anything to keep me living with you," Chloe said.She didn't even turn from the window with her arms folded and chin up. His shirt hanging off her like it had a point to prove.Derek blinked. "That's… no.""No?""No, because that's not true.""Mm-hm." She didn't believe him! It was all over her face, that flat, unimpressed sure, buddy that women seemed to be able to do

  • My Ex Husband's Regret    Check up needed.

    Chloe's POVDerek stared at the message a second too long, then locked the screen and set the phone face-down on the nightstand like it was nothing. "Just a call," he said, with a shrug that fooled neither of us. "Work stuff and all, you know."He didn't move away, though. And I didn't either. So we stayed like that on the edge of the bed with his arm still loosely around my back, my cheek resting against the warm, solid wall of his chest. I could hear his heartbeat under my ear, pounding steadily. Us almost kissing, the moment still hung between us. It was an unfinished business and I was more than excited to continue. Part of me wanted to tip my face up and close that last inch. The smarter part of me remaimed very still. Maybe I should wait for him to make his move. His phone rang again.Derek exhaled through his nose like the universe had personally offended him. "I have to take this." And then, casually, like it was nothing and wasn't melting me from the inside out, he pressed
