Warmth.

That was the first thing Anna felt as she stirred, then softness. She burrowed deeper into it, moaning lowly.

Wait. It was supposed to be cold marble, hard and the chilling night air. She'd been on the balcony.

Her eyes snapped open and she sat up quickly, glancing around.

She was on a king size bed with white sheets, a soft white duvet draped over her body.

The room was too spacious with marble floors that reflected the morning sun.

Pushed to a corner of the room was a vanity th

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    On A Collision Course

    Jason sat behind his desk, the morning light cutting through the blinds in sharp lines across the polished surface. It had been a day since he'd initiated the quiet investigation, and had managed to keep the investigators focused and discreet overnight.His phone lay face down, notifications muted, but the investigator’s updates had already arrived on his tablet. USB logs, device checks, two flashed exports of the hospital clip from the nurse station—one from Dr. Mitchell, the other from an intern. His brows furrowed at the lack of anything incriminating in Dr. Mitchell's ersonal office computer. One of them had gone too far—and just yesterday, Jason would've been willing to place his cards on the attending. Now, he wasn’t so sure.There was still the issue of the burner email and Dr. Mitchell's name on it, but anyone would've easily framed that. Just like she'd mentioned yesterday. But still, not the intern. She had no motive to sabotage Anna. Except if the intern was more affect

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Too Convenient

    Anna's brows furrowed as she watched the interns speak, her body reacting before her mind could. Her stomach knotted, shoulders stiffening. Emotions shot through her, too fast to grasp. Only one thought surfaced: They shouldn't be doing that. She shifted uncomfortably on the floor, feeling the heat raise to her face at their praise. Leah let out a low whistle, her gaze shifting from the screen to her. “They must really adore you,” she whispered, almost reverently, nudging Anna slightly. Anna's lips stretched tightly, then snapped back. They were making her out to be a saint—she wasn't. She straightened as Sierra began to speak, her eyes locked on the screen unblinkingly. For the slightest moment, her lips tugged as her own words were echoed back to her. Until Sierra said the words that erased that fleeting smile. “And that's what she gave me… room to grow. To learn.” Anna tensed, realizing where she was taking this. She wanted to scream for her to stop. She could see the pain,

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Room To Grow

    Jason walked around the desk, sank into the seat and pressed play. Silence settled over the office, thick and expectant. The young doctors introduced themselves—the interns Anna had mentioned—before launching into their experience. Apparently they were on night duty and had sneaked off to an empty nurses station to record the video. Jason's eyes scanned their faces, reading the tension in their expressions, the restless energy in their movements. They were chaotic—talking over each other, rambling—which made it clear this was impulsive. Anna had made them feel comfortable enough to ask questions, to admit when they didn't know. And to keep going anyway. “She took us under her wing.” “Chief is selfless. She takes on shifts when others have emergencies.” “Remember when she'd pull a thirty-six-hour shift without breaking a sweat?” Jason's gaze zeroed in on the young doctor—Sierra, she'd introduced horse as—the one from the viral clip as others kept talking. She had been quiet sin

    It was dark by the time Anna dragged herself out of bed and into the bathroom. She filled the tub with warm water, threw in her oils and soap—and sank into it until only her face broke the surface. Exhausted, she lay there, unmoving, until the water turned cold. Then she stepped out and headed straight to her room, water droplets trailing behind her. She moved in a haze, her movements lethargic as she threw on a baggy t-shirt with shorts, then proceeded to apply her moisturizer. She stared at her reflection as she rubbed the face serum into her skin in slow circles. Her phone buzzed with a message somewhere on the nightstand, but she ignored it.Her bones were heavy. A splitting headache throbbed at the back of her head, and dizziness lingered behind her eyes. She pushed to her feet just as her bedroom door creaked open and Leah appeared. “You done crying in there or do you want snacks first?”Anna paused, her lips parting as she stared incredulously at Leah. Hadn't she left? Leah

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    A Glimpse Of Hope

    Jason told himself he wasn’t thinking about Anna. He told himself that several times before the lie stopped sounding convincing.He had spent the past few hours running through possible courses of action in his head, staring at his phone as though it might magically dial her number itself—all while Travis preached in front of the big screen. He'd barely heard a word, and that annoyed him to no end. “What do you think, Mr. Knight?” Travis had asked with an annoyingly wide smile after his rather… decent presentation. He'd cleared his throat, searched his brain, and could only come up with, “Thank you for the thorough analysis. We'll get back to you.” Him—Jason Knight, notorious for his unnerving presence in boardrooms and conferences—had said just that and then left. Ethan informing him that he'd recorded the presentation—as though he knew Jason hadn't been listening—only made the irritation under his skin worse. He was back at his office now, the floor-to-ceiling glass wall behi

    “NO.” One word spat out through clenched teeth. Anna grabbed the duvet and stormed past Elena, their shoulders bumping. Elena followed. Julian's head tilted to the side as he watched. “She said she couldn't reach you, so she—” Elena stared hesitantly. Anna scoffed, cutting her off. “I wonder why? Oh, right. I blocked her.” “You blocked her?” Anna said nothing, focusing on draping the duvet over her bed. Anger and hurt twisted inside her, mingling with a gnawing sense of inadequacy. Elena stepped closer as she tucked in the corners. “You can't avoid her forever.” “I very much plan to,” Anna snapped. “She's our mother no matter what, Anna. You can't run from that fact,” Elena said firmly, frowning. Abandoning the duvet, Anna snapped around to her, face contorted in anger. “That's so easy for you to say,” she spat. “You're not the one who endured her…” Anna paused, biting her lower lip. “Go on, say it.” Elena moved closer. “What? You were the one who carried it all?” She chall

    Anna knocked lightly before pushing Olivia’s door open.“Hi, Helen,” she greeted, moving toward the kitchen. “You’re late for your usual check-in,” Helen said, not looking up from her crossword.“Work,” Anna replied quickly, setting the casserole dish on the island. Work and a six-foot problem in

    His driver—seriously?Anna stood frozen at the doorway, clutching her bag like it held answers. Jason Knight had a hundred ways to be infuriating, but sending his driver to pick her up for their supposed hangout was a new one.Especially after he'd promised to pick her up himself. No—worse than t

    God help her. She was supposed to be checking his wound, not… doing whatever it was Jason was trying to. “Doctor-patient privilege or… you know what, never mind. Sleeve.” He rolled his sleeve higher, slow and deliberate, eyes on her. “This okay?” His voice was low. But the way he sat—straight-b
