Sansa’s POV

The walls were still too white.

Sterile. Bare. The kind of white that reminded me of a hospital room or a prison cell, depending on how dark my thoughts ran that morning.

And today, they ran pitch black.

I sat at the lone desk in the center of the room and tried to breathe.

“Starting over is a nightmare," I mused.

But this was mine now. My company.

Or at least, a start of one.

A new start. That’s what Eleanor had called it when she all but forced me to sign the lease. “Killian took your name, your company, your future, it's time for you to take something back,” she’d said.

And it wasn't a lie. I had a reason to start over. With the right connections, I could get back my father's hidden inheritance. What was left of what Killian couldn't steal from me.

I was supposed to be powerful again. Sansa Vale, the rebirth. But all I could feel was fragile. Scared. Pathetic.

I hadn’t stopped shaking since the funeral.

Since Winston.

There was a bitter taste in my mouth just think

    Sansa’s POVThe Devil in a Suit“Bankruptcy?" I couldn't breathe. My shares. Everything that Killian had taken from me. My inheritance. My family's wealth. It all now belonged to the Wolfe family. If they fell, I would fall with them. My heart pounded in my ears. What were they saying out there? Did they blame me for the fall in the stock value? Did they know everything? Had someone seen us? Had someone seen me and Winston? It was an abomination. The Wolfe and Vale family would be ruined beyond repair. I felt sick. Oh God. If the press found out, if Killian found out I had slept with his father, I’d be ruined.My family was once one of the most respected in the city. My father had built empires, held so much power. But now? He was gone. Buried. Along with my dignity and the last shreds of reputation.I had trusted Killian. Loved him. Given up my shares, my legacy, my inheritance, to stand beside him as his wife. And he had taken everything in our three years together. And Win

    Sansa’s POVI would recognize that voice anywhere.It was a rumbling baritone that did wonders to my body. Low. Dark. Sexy. I hissed at the feelings it evoked within me. The voice alone broke through every wall I had spent days trying to rebuild. My body reacted before my brain caught up, jolting up from my chair like I’d been shocked.I turned to him with anger. “What the hell are you doing here?” I hissed. “Get out of my office. Now.”Winston Wolfe didn’t move.He just stood there in the doorway like he owned the place, like he owned me. One hand was in the pocket of his immaculate suit and he wore that look again, the one that said he knew more than he should. The one that had seduced me, haunted me, and now, threatened to destroy me.“I asked you to leave!” I snapped.His lips curved. “Did you like my gift?”I went cold.So it was him. The diamond earring. The little velvet box. The ‘W.’I felt like the floor shifted beneath my feet. My life was becoming a Bollywood show. “

The heat radiating off him made it hard to think.“You want revenge?” he asked. “You want your inheritance back? Your dignity?”I couldn’t speak.“I can help you do that,” he said. “I can get my best lawyers on the divorce.”My breath hitched. “And why would you want to go against your own son?”He looked me dead in the eyes.“Because the second he touched you and hurt you, he became my enemy.”I flinched. That wasn’t the answer I expected.“That’s twisted,” I whispered. “You met me just two weeks ago." Shit. She'd been counting. “Maybe,” he admitted. “But it doesn’t make it less true.”“Why do you even care?” I asked. “You said this wasn’t about wanting to be in bed with me. So what is it, Winston?”He leaned in, his mouth barely grazing my ear. “I care because I see you. I see what he never did for you and I'm dyin

    Winston’s POV“I'll be damned if I let you go, Sansa.” I hissed, grabbing her face to kiss her. Just then, the door burst open and Sansa went rigid against me. I hissed low under my breath, pissed. “Shit.”Sansa was still backed against the desk, lips parted, eyes wide in horror as the secretary stood frozen at the door like a deer caught in headlights.My cock was still rock-hard and I wanted to devour her more than anything. Talk about bad timing. I moved quickly, adjusting my jacket as I helped Sansa straighten up, tugging her skirt down gently over her hips. Damn, I wanted to taste every inch of her creamy skin. Her blouse was wrinkled, her hair slightly undone from my earlier frenzy. I reached for her with careful fingers, smoothing a strand back into place.But she still looked like she’d seen a ghost.“Shouldn't you knock before entering the goddamn office?” I asked, my tone cold and slightly irritated. The secretary blinked, stammering like a schoolgirl caught sneaking

    Winston's POV I was quiet for a moment longer than I should’ve been.I hadn’t expected Killian to come back home, much less beg for my help. Not after six years of acting like he didn't belong to the Wolfe family. I let him live his life. But I knew he'd never be the son I hoped for. He squandered the Wolfe inheritance and turned his back on the family name.But here he was, standing in my living room with that foolish grin on his face. “I want her back, Dad,” he said again, more firmly this time. “I want Sansa back.”I masked my anger with a scoff, crossing my arms. “I’m not sure she wants you back, Killian.”He shrugged. “I don’t care what she wants. She’s my wife. I’m not going to lose my marriage. Not to her pride. Not to whatever phase she’s going through.”That word, ‘phase’, lit something inside me. Was that how he saw her hurt? As a phase? I studied him carefully. I’d funded his lifestyle from the beginning, watched him burn every cent I gave him, and then magically reapp

His eyes widened in horror. “Dad!” He shrieked and had the decency to quickly shove the girl away and pulled up his pants. "It's not what you think, wait…”The girl gasped and scrambled off the floor, grabbing at her clothes.I stared at my son.The same son who just begged for my help. Who cried about missing his wife. Who had me spend over a million dollars to create a romantic fantasy for a woman he clearly never deserved.I was beyond disappointed, I felt like punching him in the face. “What the hell is wrong with you?” I asked, my voice ice-cold.“Dad, for real, It’s not what you think—”“It’s exactly what I think.”My hands were shaking with rage. What would the world think if I punched my son? I had to hold my anger. Killian didn’t love Sansa. I knew that. Somehow I knew it. Who planned a

    Sansa’s POVThis was all I was worth. I sat on the edge of my new couch, if you could even call it that, surrounded by half-unpacked boxes and a lingering scent of fresh paint. The studio apartment was small, almost claustrophobically so, and the air inside was stale. It wasn’t home.Not yet.Maybe not ever but this was all I could afford. I wrapped my arms around myself and stared at the chipped coffee table the movers had just assembled. My things, what little I had left after Killian drained me dry, were stacked against the walls. I hadn’t even hung the curtains yet. I didn’t know how to. Killian always hired someone for that.A loud thump from upstairs made me flinch.The movers came down the stairs one by one, their boots clunking on the narrow steps. One of them, the taller guy with a grease-streaked shirt and a kind face, looked at me apologetically. “Miss, the bathroom sink’s got a bad leak. And the kitchen plumbing’s...well, it’s seen better days.”I sighed, closing my

    Sansa's POV Where was he taking me?Why the blindfold?I asked myself those questions repeatedly, my legs trembling slightly. The car had been moving for what felt like an eternity, and the soft hum of the engine wasn’t helping calm the storm inside me. I didn’t know if it was fear or excitement or both.“Stop it,” Winston’s deep voice suddenly broke through the silence beside me.I jerked at the sound of him. He was so close. Too close. I could feel his warmth radiating through the space between us, the nearness of his body made me feel unnamed sensations in my belly.“Stop what?” I asked shakily.“Stop biting your lips. Unless you want me to help you.”His voice was teasing.Help me? Was he threatening to kiss me? I should have been mortified. And yet, I purred at the sound of it, clenching my thighs instinctively. How could just a few words do that to me?“Where are you taking me?” I asked again, needing something, anything to distract myself from the way my body reacted to him

    Sansa's POV I stood there, trembling, fists clenched by my sides as my chest rose and fell. The door had slammed behind Winston like thunder as he stormed out, making me jerk. He was angry. But damn him! He didn't have the right to be angry! He had no right. How could he make me feel like this?I hated the way my skin still tingled where he’d stood too close. I hated how my body betrayed me every time he was near. But more than anything, I hated how much power he had over my emotions."I hate him," I muttered, pacing the room, my feet stomping into the rug. "He’s impossible! Arrogant, condescending and manipulative!"My voice rose with every word until I was shouting, my fingers tangled in my hair in frustration. "How dare he order me around like I’m some child? Like I don’t have a say in my own damn life!"I spun around, feeling my eyes burn as tears threatened to fall. Goodness, Winston was turning me, a heiress, to an irrational teenage girl! "He ignored me! Lied to me! And

    Winston’s POV The moment she walked away from me in that hallway, her palm still stinging on my cheek, the memories returned. I stood frozen, dumbfounded by her words. "Go kiss Imelda." What the hell was she talking about?I strode back to my room angrily. How long would she take liberty of the fact that I liked her? Slapping me?! But this wasn't just about Killian. No, she thought I'd been with some maid. “Goodness! What does she take me for?!" I hissed. Imelda?Her name lit a fuse in my brain. Suddenly, I was back in my bedroom the night before. The memory from the previous night was still foggy. I couldn't recall everything that had happened but I was sure as hell that I couldn't have done anything stupid. Could I? I could clearly recall her offer of whiskey. But she'd brought just one glass. For me. I wouldn't dare let a maid into my room talk more of drinking with me. I was just trying to be polite and to also ask about Sansa. I could recall she told me Sansa didn't

  • My Father-In-Law's Craziest Obsession   Chapter 27: A Grump 

    Winston's POV I woke up with a banging headache. I couldn't feel my own temples and my legs were a little shaky. I couldn't recall how the night went. All events seemed to blur together in a messy mix. “Damn, I need some Aspirin," I sighed heavily. But first, I needed some caffeine in my system. Throwing on a white robe, I slowly made my way to the bathrobe, washed my face and stared into my red eyes in the mirror. With a sigh, I headed to the dining room. Maybe whiskey last night wasn't such a great idea. I felt like a train had run me over. As soon as I entered the dining room, I noticed her. Sansa had a presence that felt like balm. I could just stare at her and feel calm, soothed. But this morning, she was quiet. Withdrawn. “Hello,” I said. Sansa hummed a reply and didn't bother looking up. Her gaze never once lifted from her plate. She sat down at the far end of the dining table, the space between us long enough to fit a car. Why was she so far off? No one ever s

    Winston's POV Killian stormed out of my estate like a tantrum-throwing child. How did he know? Who gave him the pictures? Was this related to the blackmail I received at the hospital? “Damn it!" I swore angrily, “I should have done something when I got those pictures!" But then, Sansa was my priority. She still is. I had to make sure she was saved and sound before going after some cheap blackmail. I stood by the window of my study, watching the tire marks his car had left on my driveway. This was his home. But he'd abandoned it years ago. Why was he so obsessed with the same woman he wanted to bury just a few weeks ago? My jaw tightened in irritation. He had the audacity to waltz in here, accuse me like a rabid dog foaming at the mouth, and dare to threaten the one person under this roof I had no intention of giving up.Sansa.My eyes drifted toward the west wing, where I knew she was resting. Still recovering. The thought of Killian barging into her peace like that made me e

    Sansa’s POV Killian knew about us. He knew exactly what we'd done and I wanted to vanish. I wished the ground would open up and swallow me. I sat on the edge of the bed, wrapped in Winston’s bathrobe, staring at the photos in my trembling hands. Each one was more damning than the last. My lips pressed against Winston’s. My bare skin tangled with his. My body atop his. The worst part? My face was blissful, unguarded, open in pleasure. Tears streamed down my cheeks. “Oh, gosh," I sighed heavily. There was no denying it now. I couldn’t lie my way out of this, not even to myself. I had done the unthinkable. I had let my grief and pain push me into the arms of another man. Yes, Killian had cheated on me with my best friend. But maybe a trip to Spain wasn't the about or the mess my life was. Now, those three days in Spain were going to be the end of me. I was going to lose everything because I slept in the arms of another man other than my husband. The world would see these

    Killian’s POV The guards’ hands were still on my shoulders as they dragged me toward the massive iron gates of the Wolfe estate. “How dare you!" I snapped aggressively, struggling against their hold. The humiliation of it! The absolute disgrace burned hotter than any flame. I wanted to shove them, to fight them, to take them down. Most of all, I wanted to deal with Sansa. The cheap thing! They had to let me go, they had to let me teach them a lesson. Sansa had to be taught a lesson!“I’m a Wolfe!” I barked, shoving one of their arms off with a snarl. “Do you even understand what that means? He’s my father! He has no right, no goddamn right, to throw me out of my house!”One of the guards, the older one with graying temples and a stiff jaw, met my eyes. “Sir, Mr. Winston is concerned about Miss Vale’s recovery. He doesn’t want her stressed or upset.”“Shut up! Her name is Sansa Wolfe! My bloody wife! Don't forget that!" The man sighed heavily and dropped his head, “We are jus

    From Sansa’s point of viewMy hands trembled as I looked down at the red wine stain soaking through the soft yellow of my dress. I barely had time to process it before Killian burst through the dining room door like a storm ready to destroy everything in its path.“I always knew you were a whore, Sansa!” he snarled, his voice ragged with fury.I froze. My throat tightened, heart thudding painfully against my chest.Before I could speak, Killian surged forward, his hand raised, ready to slap me.But he never reached me.Winston moved so fast I barely saw it happen. One strong arm caught Killian’s wrist mid-air, halting the slap an inch from my face.“If you dare hurt her again,” Winston’s voice was very low, “you’ll have me to deal with.”Killian’s eyes widened, then narrowed with a bitter sneer. He wrenched his arm free and took a step back, laughing. But it wasn’t a real laugh. It was the unhinged, broken laugh of a madman. “You bloody shameless whore!" I couldn't look up, my hea

    Sansa’s Point of ViewThree days.That’s how long it had been since I went to the hospital. Three whole days of unconsciousness and yet, one touch fromWinston and my body was on fire all over again.What if the maid hadn't come to call us for dinner? Would he have slept with me? Was it something he wished to ever do again? Or was I the wanton whore throwing myself all over him? Thank goodness for dinner as a distraction. I wasn't hungry but I was going to stuff myself with everything they had. I couldn't face him at dinner. Eating was a better option. I stared at the soft yellow dress hanging on the wardrobe. It wasn’t fancy. It wasn’t even silk. Just a simple, sleeveless cotton piece that floated to my calves gently. I didn’t want to feel beautiful. I didn’t want to feel dressed up. I just wanted to feel like myself again.My hands trembled as I slipped it over my head. The color hugged my skin like a balm, soothing and warm. I didn’t bother with makeup. My cheeks still hel

    Sansa's POV I don’t remember waking up as much as I remember the sound of his voice. He sounded like a cold winter evening. Llow, sharp, and commanding. Winston.The thought of him reminded me of what I could never have no matter how much I longed for it or him for me. He was my father-in-law. Father-in-law. I had to remind myself once more. The thought of Killian left me disoriented and I clutched Winston's arms as he sat beside me on the hospital bed. “No. I don’t want to see him,” I whispered, my throat dry and my chest aching as I tried to sit up. The sharp pain that spread through my side made me wince.“Easy,” Winston said instantly, his hand catching mine before I could push myself further. “You’re okay now, Sansa. You’re safe. I’m here.”His voice was like a balm. Soothing. I leaned against him without thinking. His body was warm, his scent familiar, woodsy and expensive. He anchored me when everything else felt like it might fall apart.“I was afraid,” I murmured, c
