The front doors of the police precinct swung open just after nine o'clock the next morning.

Conversation throughout the lobby slowly died away as Jonathan walked inside without saying a word. He wore a dark charcoal suit, and every step he took was calm and deliberate. His expression revealed nothing, but there was a quiet intensity in his eyes that made people instinctively move aside.

  • Rejected by One, Wanted by Another    The Fight Begins

    The front doors of the police precinct swung open just after nine o'clock the next morning.Conversation throughout the lobby slowly died away as Jonathan walked inside without saying a word. He wore a dark charcoal suit, and every step he took was calm and deliberate. His expression revealed nothing, but there was a quiet intensity in his eyes that made people instinctively move aside.Six people followed closely behind him. Three men and three women.Every one of them carried a black leather briefcase filled with files, laptops, and legal documents. They were some of the country's most respected criminal defense attorneys. Leading them was Robert, a senior lawyer whose name alone was enough to make prosecutors nervous.The desk sergeant looked up from his computer, his eyebrows lifted."Can I help you?"Jonathan stopped at the counter. "I'm Jonathan Blake." His voice was calm but firm. "I've come to represent Lucy Quinn."The officer blinked. "I'm sorry, sir, but visiting hours—"Ro

  • Rejected by One, Wanted by Another    Behind Bars

    The concrete bench was hard beneath Lucy as she sat alone in the holding cell. The room was small and cold, with peeling gray walls and a single light bulb overhead. Every few seconds it flickered, casting brief shadows across the floor before returning to its dull glow.She rested her elbows on her knees and stared at the red marks circling her wrists. The handcuffs had been removed when she arrived, but the bruises remained, burning every time she moved. Strangely, the silence inside the cell was comforting. After weeks of whispers, accusations, and endless humiliation, this was the first place where no one expected anything from her.The quiet didn't last long.A metal door slammed somewhere down the hallway, followed by the sound of footsteps growing closer. A female guard stopped outside the bars with a tablet tucked beneath her arm."You're making headlines," she said with a mocking smile. "Thought you might want to see what people are saying."She switched on the screen and hel

  • Rejected by One, Wanted by Another    Poisoned

    The sound of sirens shattered the silence surrounding the Matthews estate.Red and blue lights flashed through the tall dining room windows as paramedics rushed through the front doors carrying medical bags and a stretcher. The elegant dinner party had dissolved into chaos.Victoria knelt beside Adrian, her designer gown soaked with spilled wine. She clutched his hand as tears streamed down her face."Adrian... please wake up," she cried, her voice breaking. "Please!"A paramedic gently pulled her back. "Ma'am, we need room."She stumbled away as two others dropped beside Adrian. One checked his pulse while another fitted an oxygen mask over his face."Pulse is weak.""He's barely breathing.""Prepare an airway."The room filled with hurried instructions. Medical equipment clicked open while another paramedic connected Adrian to a portable monitor.Arthur stood several feet away, gripping the edge of the dining table so tightly his knuckles turned white, the confidence he'd worn at di

  • Rejected by One, Wanted by Another    A Toast to Disaster

    The Matthews mansion hadn't felt this lively in weeks.The long dining table was set with crystal glasses, and enough food to feed a few hundred people. Laughter drifted through the room as servants moved quietly between the guests, refilling glasses and replacing empty plates.For the first time since the corporate war began, the Matthews family looked relaxed.The scandal surrounding Lucy and Jonathan had done exactly what Arthur and Victoria wanted. Investors had stopped talking about Matthews Global's financial losses and started talking about the affair that dominated every headline instead. Blake Holdings was taking the hit, and the Matthews family finally felt like they were back in control.Arthur sat at the head of the table beside one of the company's oldest banking partners, Mr. Hills. Victoria looked happier than Lucy had seen in months. Every few minutes she lifted her wineglass with another satisfied smile.Only Lucy remained quiet. She sat beside Adrian with her hands f

  • Rejected by One, Wanted by Another    She Finally Snapped

    The grandfather clock in the hallway chimed twice.It was well past two in the morning. Lucy walked quietly through the dark mansion, a glass of wine in her hand. She couldn't sleep. Every time she closed her eyes, she heard the whispers from the gala all over again.The house was silent except for a faint glow from the door of Adrian's private study. As she got closer, laughter drifted into the hallway.A woman's laughter.She stopped.She didn't mean to listen, but Adrian's voice carried through the half-open door."...you're overthinking it."She looked inside. Adrian was sprawled across his leather chair with a bottle of scotch in one hand. A young woman sat comfortably on his lap, smiling as she traced circles across his chest.Lucy didn't recognize her. It was probably another girl… another replacement."What if your wife catches us?" the girl asked with a playful laugh.Adrian laughed even harder. "Lucy?" he scoffed. "She's probably locked in her room crying. That's what she's

  • Rejected by One, Wanted by Another    A Big Reveal

    Adrian stumbled through the door of the guesthouse, the whiskey still burning in his veins and blurring the edges of the world. Zoe was waiting, just like she always was, curled up on the couch in nothing but a silk slip that barely reached her thighs. Her face lit up the second she saw him, a bright, hungry smile spreading across her lips.“Adrian,” she purred, rising smoothly and meeting him halfway. “You came to me again. Drunk and horny, just how I like you.”He grabbed her waist, pulling her against his body. The scent of her… vanilla and something warmer, hit him hard. “Fuck, Zoe… needed you tonight.” His words slurred slightly as he crushed his mouth to hers, kissing her with sloppy, demanding hunger. She moaned into it, parting her lips and letting his tongue invade, tasting the liquor on him while her hands worked open his shirt buttons.“You’re so fucking hard already,” she whispered against his mouth, palming the thick bulge straining his pants. “Your wife doesn’t take care
