Elena didn’t answer right away. She just stood there, arms folded, eyes scanning Anna like she was trying to force something into place that wouldn't fit.

Anna bristled against her gaze. “Why are you looking at me like that?”

“You tell me,” she said finally. “You’ve been avoiding me for days. Leah says you're not okay, and you look like the world turned on you.”

Anna exhaled. “I said I wasn't ready to talk, Elena.”

“I'm your sister. You don’t get to shut me out.”

“I don't feel like talking to

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Before Tomorrow Night

    The waiting room wasn't nearly as intimidating as Anna remembered. Or perhaps it only felt that way because this time, she had Leah and Elena with her. Leah had commandeered the chair beside her, scrolling through her phone while her crossed leg bounced restlessly every few seconds. Every now and then, she shot Anna a poorly concealed look of concern.Elena, meanwhile, had somehow managed to strike up a conversation with an elderly woman knitting a tiny yellow sweater across the room."...So your granddaughter's due in September? That's so cute!"The woman laughed. "My daughter.""Oh… sorry. I spoke out of turn.” Leah didn't even look up. "You usually do."The woman chuckled. Elena glared at Leah. Just then, a young woman who looked to be in her early twenties walked out from the office, both hands on either side of her waist. She was heavily pregnant. The older woman stood immediately, packed her knitting stuff into her bag and hurried over to the young woman. “What did the doctor

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    A Good Day

    The most exhausting, therapeutic day ever? The girls' day out had felt exactly that way.The moment Anna had mentioned a day out, Leah had called it quits with the breakfast but made sure Anna finished hers in the car. “All tabs on me!” Elena had hollered in the car with a Dua Lipa playlist blasting through the speakers. And spent the entire drive to The Domain arguing with Leah about whose tab the bills were on. When Anna had tried to suggest they split it amongst themselves, they had both snapped, “Stay out of it!” Eventually, Leah had won, leaving Elena sulking until they strode into The Domain. They spent the next hour trying on clothes and critiquing each other. Anna couldn't remember the last time she laughed so hard that her stomach hurt. As they exited The Domain, arms loaded with more shopping bags than they could comfortably carry, they dumped everything into the car before Leah dragged Anna into Kendra Scott next. Then a lingerie store where Anna threatened to scream blo

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    The Right To Ask

    Jason groaned low in his throat, pressing his face further into the pillow beneath him. He could barely move. Every muscle ached like he'd been hit by a truck, and when he tried, a low sound escaped his throat. His skull was splitting in two from a pounding headache, and it took great effort before he managed to roll onto his side, his eyes squeezed tightly shut. “Fuck me,” he grumbled, his mouth disgustingly dry. “No, thank you. I don't roll that way,” a low voice interjected casually. Jason's head snapped off the pillow, his eyes flying open. A sharp pain ripped through his skull at the sudden movement, his vision blurring at the edges. “Fuck!” He lay his head back down, gave the pain a few seconds to subside and his vision to clear, before slowly turning his head toward the voice. Cole sat on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows. The curtains were still drawn, shutting out what would've been an impressive view of Zürich. He sat cross-legged, cup of coffee in one h

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Don't Stay

    ‘I believe in your vision, Mr. Knight. I see your works. I just don’t believe in your current state of mind.’The words had followed Jason out of the private meeting, into the elevator, into the suffocating quiet of his hotel suite, and now, the hotel bar three floors below.He raised a hand and snapped his fingers. Instantly, a server appeared before him, bearing another bottle of whiskey. It was the third bottle for the night. And still, he felt numb. The server replaced his ice, uncorked the new bottle, poured a generous amount into his glass, and grabbed the empty bottle before scurrying away. Jason dragged a hand through his hair as he brought the glass to his lips. The expensive low-lit hotel bar overlooked the city. Jazz played softly in the background beneath muted conversations and the clink of half-melted ice against whiskey glasses. Jason sat in a dress shirt with the sleeves rolled once, his tie gone and the top buttons undone. Exhaustion sitting on him like bruises.His

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Girls, Breakfast, and Emotional

    Anna woke to the smell of butter and something burning slightly. For a second, disorientation held her still against the couch cushions. Then her lower back protested as she pushed herself upright and everything from yesterday came rushing back at once.The exchange with Maya, passing out, Elena finding out about the baby, and drifting off to sleep on her shoulder right there on the couch. God.Anna dragged a hand over her face with a groan.“You’re alive.” Leah’s voice floated in from the kitchen.Anna blinked toward it to find Leah standing by the stove in one of Anna's oversized shirts while Elena sat at the island scrolling through something on her phone.Both women looked up immediately, and Anna instantly regretted waking up.“You should still be sleeping,” Elena said carefully, like she wasn’t sure where they stood yet.“I’m fine.”Leah snorted loudly. “Drink every time Anna says she’s fine and suddenly everyone dies of alcohol poisoning.”Anna glared weakly, her gaze flicking

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    Completely Alone

    Anna had barely slept last night. She barely remembered Leah helping her to the couch, or Helen knocking softly at some point during the night. Olivia had come too, hovering awkwardly behind her mother with worry written all over her face while Anna sat there emotionally flayed open, and exhausted.“Do you need anything, sweetheart?” Helen had asked gently.Anna had wanted to say yes; instead, she'd shaken her head. Olivia looked like she wanted to hug her, and Anna pretended not to notice. Elena never came back.That hurt more than Anna wanted to admit, especially after the raw words they’d exchanged. Everything had gone quiet sometime after three in the morning, but sleep still eluded her. Every time Anna closed her eyes, she saw Elena again. Heard her own voice cracking in the hallway. Felt the humiliation of falling apart in front of everyone.The sun had barely risen by the time she drifted off into sleep. By the time Anna dragged herself off the couch and toward the shower in

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    When Time Stands Still

    Anna had taken a few hours away from the crushing weight of her responsibilities—back-to-back trauma consults, ICU follow-ups, and paperwork she’d been postponing for days—and spent more than half of it just staring at Jason's name, fingers hovering. Knightmare. His number was still saved as that,

    Helen was already outside when Anna found her, bundled in a hospital blanket, breathing in the night air like it was something she needed.Olivia sat behind her on a bench, one hand on Helen's wheelchair, the other holding her phone. They talked and laughed, eyes on the screen—happy in their own wo

  • Ruined By My Brother-In-Law    The Things We Don't Ask For

    Anna knew—if she said it out loud, all of it, there would be no going back. It was easier to pretend when you were only lying to yourself; once you brought someone else into the lie, it shatters around you. But Leah wasn't someone else—if there was anyone she could bring into this, it was her. Bes

    Anna hummed low in her throat as she switched on the light, shuffling to her wardrobe. She pulled the door open, reaching for the neatly folded stack of nightwear on the wardrobe shelf. She paused as her eyes caught a vase on the bottom shelf. She sank to her knees, dragging in a breath at the si
