“You…” My voice cracked, but I forced it to remain steady as I lifted the journal. “You had this the whole time? You’ve been reading my most private, pathetic thoughts about you for years?”

Gavin swallowed hard. His jaw clenched tight. Those hazel eyes I used to get lost in were now dark with regret and panic.

“Melanie… I—”

“Baby… the food is getting cold.” Cassandra’s voice floated sweetly from the living room, cutting him off.

Gavin flinched as my hands shook around the journal, the t

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 156: Mine

    MELANIEThe moment Gavin turned toward me, still holding the doorknob, the tiredness on his face shifted into instant relief, and my chest loosened at the sight of it. “You look exhausted,” I called, one foot still in the car, the other on the ground.“I had a shitty day.” A soft smile broke across his face, the kind that reached his eyes. “Seeing you just made it better.”“Same here,” I said, stepping fully out of the car and walking up to him.“Thank you for coming.” The unfiltered emotion in his voice surprised me. It did something warm and tight in my stomach. I took his hand as he pushed the door open, and I noticed a slight tension in his shoulders. Something was wrong. “Are you okay?” I asked.“Mmm.”He didn’t give me time to press further. The moment the door shut behind us, he backed me against it in one smooth motion, his mouth finding mine hard and hungry. I gasped into the kiss, my fingers sliding into his hair to pull him closer. His tongue licked my lips, and I opened

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 155: Niece and Nephew

    GAVIN I froze. That was the last thing I expected to hear. Ever. Especially from Tony, the loudest mouth on the team. I looked around at the confused expressions on the other players' faces, and I knew I had to act fast.Before I could speak, Derek shoved Tony hard enough that he almost lost his balance.“What the hell is wrong with you?” Derek snapped. “Why do you always say shit you shouldn’t?”“I was just asking—”“Shut up.”Tony muttered something under his breath and rubbed his shoulder. That small exchange told me everything. They knew. Tony and Derek both knew about Melanie and me.I had thought only Reynold was aware, and I trusted him to keep quiet after our talk in my office. Clearly I had been wrong.“Tony.”The room went still again. Every pair of eyes turned toward me, but my gaze remained only on him. “Yes, coach?” he shifted his weight nervously from one foot to the other, looking uneasy.“Care to repeat what you just said?”I let my voice drop into the cold, hard t

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 154: The Last Practice

    GAVIN Today was my last practice with the boys. It was also the day they would finally learn I wouldn’t be their coach anymore.My chest tightened as I sat in the parking lot, staring at the Chatham University buildings through the windshield. This job had started as a cover—something temporary to keep me close to the investigation. Somewhere along the way it had become real. I had fallen into the rhythm of coaching, the early mornings, the noise of the locker room, the way the team looked at me when they needed direction.Leaving it hurt more than I expected.I got out of the car, locked it, and started toward the walkway. Halfway there, I glanced back at the student lot and noticed someone inside a parked car slamming a hand against the steering wheel as if it had personally insulted him.I squinted and saw it was Derek.What was wrong with him?I walked over to his car, the windows were rolled all the way up, and knocked on the glass. He jumped, widening his eyes at the sight of

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 153: The Ticking Bomb

    MELANIE Silvio walked into the house like he owned the place, which he indirectly did. Eva’s name might have been on the papers, but this house existed because of him.“Why all the screaming this early?” He asked, looking between Derek and me, with his gaze settling on Derek. A casual smile touched his lips as he extended a hand. “You must be Derek. Eva’s brother.” Derek was obviously angry. His chest was still rising and falling hard under his jersey. He stared at the offered hand but didn’t take it. Instead, he squared his shoulders, trying to look bigger than he was, like he wanted to intimidate Silvio, which almost made me laugh. Emphasis on almost, because it was definitely not a laughing matter. “Who the hell are you?” Derek asked, even though the answer was already clear.Silvio didn’t seem bothered by the hostility. He stepped over to Eva, slid an arm around her waist, and pulled her gently against his side. Derek’s nostrils flared at the action, and Eva shifted uncomfortab

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 152: Don't Blame Me

    MELANIE We were parked in front of a beautiful, modern apartment in one of the more expensive parts of the city, which surprisingly was about ten minutes or so from my own home. So this was the house Silvio got for Eva. My hands tightened on the steering wheel as I took it all in. Maybe I should have been happy for my best friend, but I couldn't bring myself to be because I knew the kind of life she was stepping into, and nothing about it felt safe.Silvio had called her early that morning to say one of his men would come for her. Not long after, a black Toyota Tacoma had come to pick her up, and two men loaded her things while I followed behind in my own car. Now I watched through the windshield as the same two bulky-looking men carried her boxes to the porch while she practically skipped to the front door.I saw her wave at me to come out of the car as she opened the door and walked inside.I slouched my shoulders in defeat and stepped out of the car as I made my way into the ho

  • Off-Limits Puck: Daddy's Best Friend is my Ruin   Chapter 151: Who She Has Become

    GAVIN “Mrs. Wealth… Lydia, why don’t we go inside and sit down for a proper conversation?”She was already shaking her head. “I didn’t come here to stay long—”“Please,” I said to her, hoping for a listening ear. “Just give me a few minutes.”She studied my face for several seconds, then gave a short nod. “Ten minutes.”“That’s enough.” I stepped onto the porch, unlocked the door, and held it open for her.She walked in and sat on the edge of the couch, looking far less at ease than she had the last time she was here with Melanie. I set my work bag down, took the chair across from her, and drew a slow breath.Looking at her brought back the exact moment I decided to start searching for her. It had been two years ago, at Dalton’s house. He and Melanie were at it with each other. They were always at each other's throats. Melanie had shouted that she hated him. Then, right before she stormed upstairs in tears, she said she wished her mother was still around, that her mother would have

    GAVINThe talk with Cassandra had gone to hell.I can't tell when we lost the ability to sit down and have adult conversations. There used to be a time when we could be cordial, even loving. Now every conversation felt like walking through a battlefield. And I knew exactly when it all changed.The

    MELANIEMy legs went weak, and I almost fell to the ground. I quickly grabbed the edge of the couch to steady myself. Gavin had a fiancée? Like an actual woman, he planned to marry?And last night... last night I had begged him to fuck me. I came so hard on his cock while he filled me up, stupidly

    MELANIE“Fuck!” Gavin swore under his breath. I sat up fast, the sheet slipping down to my waist, exposing my bare breasts. My heart pounded against my ribs as he put a finger to his lips, mouthing “Shh,” and answered the call on speaker.“Dalton,” Gavin said, voice still rough from fucking me.“H

    MELANIEThe kiss wasn’t gentle or sweet. It was desperate. I grabbed the front of his shirt with both hands and pressed my lips hard against his, pouring everything I had been hiding for years into it.Gavin froze. His hands came up to my shoulders like he wanted to push me away.“Melanie, shit… st
