Emily’s POV

Ethan clicked the double mahogany doors shut. The loud snap echoed through the silent executive suite like a gunshot.

"Mr. Walker," Ethan started immediately, taking a step forward while still holding my hand tightly. His grip was firm, almost possessive. "About the video from campus... I know it looks sudden, but I wanted to show Emily—"

"Bring your quarterly financial reports to the desk, Ethan," Daniel interrupted. His voice was terrifyingly calm, completely stripped of any human

  • Ouchhh Step-Daddy: Our Dirty Secret behind closed doors   Chapter 81: The murder charges secret revealed

    Emily’s POVDaniel’s phone buzzed sharply in his grip before the echoes of his threat to Adrian even faded from the study.Maya stepped through the double doors, her expression dead serious, holding an encrypted radio. "Boss, Grace’s private jet just touched down at Teterboro Airport. But my scout team on the ground says two black Escalades are tailing her armored transport out of the private hanger.""Adrian," I gasped, my blood instantly running hot with adrenaline. "He’s trying to steal those medical files before she can reach the city!""He’s desperate," Daniel growled, pulling his suit jacket back on with swift, terrifying efficiency. "Maya, get the armored Suburban. We’re heading to Teterboro right now.""I'm coming with you," I said immediately, grabbing his forearm before he could step toward the door.Daniel turned to me, his silver eyes flashing with fierce protection. "Emily, it's too dangerous. Adrian knows his life is over if those records hit the press. He has nothing le

  • Ouchhh Step-Daddy: Our Dirty Secret behind closed doors   Chapter 80: Mum accused Daniel of being a murderer

    Emily’s POVDaniel had barely finished speaking into his phone when a sharp, blaring alarm chimed from the nightstand.It wasn't a phone call. It was a mass news notification."Daniel..." I gasped, my fingers tightening against the silk sheets as my own phone vibrated violently in my hand. "Look at this!"Daniel’s head snapped toward his tablet screen. A bold, blood-red banner flashed across the top of every major media outlet: EXCLUSIVE: VICTORIA WALKER SPEAKS OUT ON DANIEL WALKER’S DARK PAST IN LONDON."That foolish, hysterical woman," Daniel growled, his silver eyes instantly turning into pure, lethal ice.He tapped the screen, and a live broadcast filled the room with sound.Victoria was sitting in an opulent TV studio in Midtown, dressed in a black designer dress, dabbing fake tears from her eyes with a lace handkerchief. In her lap sat a thick, yellowed folder—the exact same London police folder Adrian Cole had shown us on the screen just hours ago."He is a monster!" Victoria s

  • Ouchhh Step-Daddy: Our Dirty Secret behind closed doors   Chapter 79: Early Morning Sex before the war

    Emily's POVDawn painted the Greenwich estate in shades of amber and rose, light spilling through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the master suite like honey poured over silk sheets.I hadn't slept. Not really. Every time I closed my eyes, Adrian Cole's smug face materialized behind my lids, that yellowed folder in his hands promising to destroy everything Daniel had built.But sometime around four in the morning, Daniel's breathing had finally evened out beside me. The tension in his shoulders had softened. His arm had stayed wrapped around my waist, heavy and possessive, even in sleep.I'd watched him for hours. The sharp cut of his jaw. The dark lashes against his cheekbones. The way his lips parted slightly, vulnerable in a way he never allowed himself to be when conscious.My fingers had traced the lines of his chest through his unbuttoned shirt, following the trail of dark hair down to where the sheet pooled at his waist. I'd felt him stir against my thigh, hardening even in sle

  • Ouchhh Step-Daddy: Our Dirty Secret behind closed doors   Chapter 78: Daniel revealed a deep secret

    Emily’s POVDaniel’s lips burned against mine, his hands gripping my waist so tightly I couldn't tell where my breath ended and his began.When he finally pulled back in the quiet library, his chest was heaving, his silver eyes dark and stormy with raw emotion. He rested his forehead against mine, his large palms framing my face."Daniel," I whispered, my heart thumping against my ribs. "You said Adrian Cole knows about your past in London. You said he’s playing psychological games with us. What is he really holding over you?"Daniel’s body went completely rigid. The warmth in his eyes instantly froze over, replaced by a deep, suffocating shadow that made my breath catch in my throat."You don't want to know, little bird," he rasped, his voice rough and pained. "If I tell you, you'll look at me differently. You'll realize the man holding you right now is a monster.""Don't say that!" I said fiercely, taking his wrists in my hands. "You could never be a monster to me! We just promised

    Emily’s POV"Maya!" I gasped, my throat closing up as I held out my shaking phone. "Look at this!"Maya leaned over from the front passenger seat of the SUV, her sharp eyes scanning the high-resolution photo on my screen. Her face turned to pure ice the second she saw the sniper crosshairs centered directly on my head, along with the text message: Declarations of love won't save him, Emily. Tell Daniel that his past in London is coming for you both."Driver, evasive route back to the Greenwich estate right now!" Maya ordered sharply, pulling out her radio. "Code Red! We have an active surveillance threat on the target! Seal the main gates before we arrive!"The heavy SUV swerved violently onto the highway, tires screeching against the asphalt as two backup security sedans fell into tight formation around us.Ten minutes later, the massive iron gates of the Greenwich estate slammed shut behind us. Armed guards in tactical gear lined the long,

  • Ouchhh Step-Daddy: Our Dirty Secret behind closed doors   Chapter 76: My Step-Dad is Mine to Choose

    Emily’s POVThe grand sitting room of the Greenwich estate was completely silent except for the crackle of the fireplace and the harsh blue glow of my smartphone screen.It was barely 7:00 AM, and the entire internet was tearing itself apart."Put the phone down, Emily," Daniel’s deep, quiet voice rasped beside me.He was leaning back on the dark velvet sofa, his dark hair falling messy over his forehead, the top buttons of his black dress shirt undone. He reached across the leather cushions and gently slid the phone from my grip, locking the display before tossing it onto the heavy oak table."I can't stop looking," I whispered, resting my head against his broad chest. The steady, heavy rhythm of his heart beneath my ear was the only thing keeping me grounded. "Half the comments are calling me brave for standing up to Victoria, and the other half are calling me a sick, shameless gold-digger who ruined her own family.""People fear what they can't control," Daniel murmured.
