Eveyeln’s POV

“Eveyeln, I’ve been looking for you.”

His voice sliced through the silence like a blade, low and tense as he stepped toward me. I instinctively backed away, heart punching against my ribs. I could feel the fear crawling up my spine, leaving a trail of icy goosebumps.

But then… his eyes shifted.

To my hands.

To the phone.

Shit.

I tucked it behind me, quick, but not quick enough.

“You got another phone?” he asked, eyes narrowing.

I didn’t answer couldn’t. I just held onto the silence like it was a shield, even as dread churned in my gut. Instead, I snatched my iPad from my bag and typed a single word:

No.

I slipped the phone into my bag, my hands trembling just slightly. I needed to leave. I needed to get away from his gaze, his questions, the heat of suspicion radiating from him.

But before I could even take a full step, his hand shot out and gripped my wrist. Tight.

My breath caught in my throat.

“I heard a voice when I got here,” he said slowly, like he was tasting each

  • My Wife, My Blackmailer    Once Again

    Evelyn’s POV“I love you.”The words tumbled out of me before I could stop them. I meant it this time. The last time I said it I probably didn't mean it. But right now I do.I hadn’t planned to say them, not now, not like this, but they burst from my chest like a secret I could no longer carry. My voice trembled as I raised my hand and gently pressed it against his cheek.“I love you. I love you. I love you so much, Louis. I’ve always loved you.”I didn’t care how I looked or how fast my heart was racing. The truth was all over my face, written into the cracks of my voice, soaked into every breath I took.He froze.His eyes widened a fraction, then crinkled at the corners as a rush of warmth filled them. His lips parted, and I saw it, pure joy. His cheeks flushed a deep red, and before I knew it, he was grinning, teeth flashing like a boy caught in his first crush.He looked like he was blushing harder than anyone I’d ever seen. “You—you do?” he whispered.I didn’t even let him finish

  • My Wife, My Blackmailer    Meeting his parents

    Evelyn’s POVI woke up to the scent of sizzling onions and something buttery, eggs, maybe? My eyelids fluttered open, and for a second, I was disoriented. The warm sheets tangled around my legs, the faint ache between my thighs reminding me of the night before, his lips, his hands, the way he had clung to me like I was his last anchor to the world.I blinked at the ceiling. Had that really happened?The scent drew me up. I sat up slowly, the fabric falling off my shoulders. It smelled like home, like warmth, like… love.My bare feet padded softly on the cold tiles as I walked out of the room. The hallway was quiet except for the soft clatter of dishes and the low hum of something frying. As I turned the corner into the kitchen, the sight stopped me cold.Louis stood there, barefoot, in a worn gray tee and sweats, spatula in one hand, stirring a pan on the stove with practiced ease. Steam curled from a kettle behind him. The counter was cluttered with eggshells, sliced bread, and a bow

  • My Wife, My Blackmailer    Empty Victory

    Evelyn’s POV“Officers! Did he tell you anything?!” My voice cracked as I screamed across the hallway, my feet stumbling forward, frantic. “Did he say why? Why he killed my mom?!”The chaos of the hospital buzzed behind me, machines beeping, nurses rushing, the quiet hum of suffering, but all I could hear was my own voice, trembling and desperate.One of the officers turned, face tight with something between exhaustion and sympathy. Louis was right behind me, his hand grabbing mine weakly, trying to keep up despite his healing body. He shouldn’t have been on his feet yet, but there he was, still trying to hold me together.“Tell me!” I yelled again, ignoring the stares from nearby nurses and patients. “Why did he do it? What did he say before he died?!”The officer exchanged a glance with his partner before sighing. “Yes… he said something.”My heart stopped. “What?” I stepped closer. “What did he say?!”The officer looked pained as he answered, like the words themselves were hard to

  • My Wife, My Blackmailer    Caught

    Evelyn’s POVAnd I knew.That look in his eyes, cold, measured, inhuman, was all I needed. He didn’t come here to talk. He came to finish what he started. To end me. Again.But this time, I wasn’t alone.After Dave died, I refused to be the woman who waited around, praying for miracles. I’d worked with the police. I told them I knew he’d come for me. He wouldn’t be able to resist. So, they hid, disguised, stationed all around the hospital, weapons ready, snipers positioned, cameras set up to capture every step. We baited the trap, and the monster walked right into it.He raised the knife higher.“Drop it,” I said through clenched teeth, voice sharp with steel.Still, he smiled. Still, he took a step forward.The hospital door flung open."FREEZE!" a voice bellowed. Boots thundered in. Uniformed officers flooded the room in seconds. One of them, the same officer who promised me they'd find him, stepped forward with his gun raised, eyes locked on the man. “Drop your weapon. Now!”The ma

  • My Wife, My Blackmailer    The face behind the mask

    Evelyn’s POV“We found his location.”The words barely left the officer’s lips before I was on my feet. My chair scraped loudly against the hospital floor, startling even the nurse passing by."Yes. You found his location," I repeated, breath catching. My heart thudded like a war drum. I grabbed the officer's sleeve. “Please… just make sure you find him. Please.” My voice trembled, but the urgency in it was steel.He gave me a tight nod. “We will.”But that wasn’t enough. It would never be enough until he was gone. Until the monster who burned through everything I loved was erased from this world. He doesn’t get to live while Dave lies cold in a morgue.I stepped back, then turned and moved quickly, almost blindly, through the hospital corridors. The smell of antiseptic clung to everything. My shoes hit the tile harder than I intended. I wasn’t just walking. I was marching. Hunting. Rage guided my feet, and grief lit the path.I had one more stop to make before the end began.I pushed

  • My Wife, My Blackmailer    Another death

    Evelyn’s POVThe rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor was the only sound grounding me. Each beat was a fragile tether, keeping him alive… keeping me sane. I hadn’t moved from his side. My hand had never left his. And even though his fingers hadn’t twitched again, I held on to hope like a lifeline.The nightmare was almost over. His parents were in custody. The people who had laughed while he suffered were behind bars. I should’ve felt triumphant, like justice was finally tipping in our favor. And yet, my heart wouldn’t rest. Not until the last piece, the darkest one, was caught.Him.The one who orchestrated it all. The one who destroyed everything I loved. The man who killed my mother… the root of all this pain.He was still out there.I reached for my phone with one hand, still gripping my husband’s cold fingers with the other. I called the officer I’d spoken to earlier.“Detective Hale,” I said, trying to keep my voice even. “Any updates?”“We need you at the station,” he said urg
