SEVEN NIGHTS WITH MY STEPFATHER Chapter 221
NOAHI sat alone in my small apartment in Hawaii, the sound of waves crashing in the distance doing nothing to calm the storm inside me. The place felt too quiet, too empty without Ivy. I had come back here after weeks of searching, hoping the familiar surroundings would help me think clearly, but all it did was remind me of the nights we had spent together — her laugh echoing in the bar, her hand in mine as we walked along the beach, the way she looked at me like I was her safe place. Now those memories felt like knives in my chest.I didn’t know how long I had been waiting for good news from anyone around me. Sarah and Jonas were still searching back in the city, calling every hospital and police station they could think of. The police had nothing. Cassian couldn’t be contacted anymore. It was like he and Ivy had vanished into thin air. My body felt thin and weak, my clothes hanging loose on me now. I hadn’t worked at the bar in weeks. I had no energy to serve customers, no energy
SEVEN NIGHTS WITH MY STEPFATHER Chapter 220
IVYCassian had just fallen asleep beside me, his breathing slow and steady, one arm still loosely draped over my waist. The room was dark except for the faint moonlight coming through the curtains, and the only sound was the soft rhythm of his breath. My body was still warm from what we had just shared — the way he had kissed me, the way his hands had moved over my skin, the way he had made me moan his name. Even now, thinking about it made my cheeks flush and a familiar ache return between my legs. But my mind was wide awake, racing with thoughts I couldn’t push away.I waited until I was sure he was deeply asleep, then carefully slipped out from under his arm. The sheets rustled softly as I moved, but he didn’t stir. My heart was pounding as I stood up, my bare feet silent on the cool floor. I glanced back at him one last time. He looked peaceful, trusting, completely unaware of what I was about to do. A sharp pang of guilt hit me, but I pushed it down. I had made my decision. I
SEVEN NIGHTS WITH MY STEPFATHER Chapter 219
IVYI lay in bed staring at the ceiling, the quiet of the room pressing down on me like a heavy blanket. The space I had asked for from Cassian felt too big now, too empty. My body missed him more than my mind wanted to admit. I kept thinking about the way his arms felt around me, the warmth of his chest against my back, the gentle way he would kiss my forehead before sleep. Yesterday I had pushed him away because I was confused and hurt, but tonight the loneliness felt heavier than the questions in my head. I missed his touch. I missed the way he made me feel wanted, the way my body responded so easily to him.I got out of bed and walked quietly down the hallway to the room where he was sleeping. The door was slightly open. I pushed it gently and stepped inside. Cassian was lying on his back, one arm behind his head, his chest rising and falling in slow, steady breaths. He looked peaceful, but I could see the worry still lingering on his face even in sleep. My heart softened. I had h
SEVEN NIGHTS WITH MY STEPFATHER Chapter 218
IVYThe night felt heavier than any night I had spent in this lakeside cottage. I lay in bed staring at the ceiling, the soft sound of the lake outside the window doing nothing to calm the storm inside me. Cassian was asleep in the other room — I had asked for space, and he had given it, even though I could see how much it hurt him. His presence in the house still felt close, like a shadow I couldn’t escape.I missed the warmth of his arms, the way his hand would rest on my thigh or how his lips would find my forehead in the dark. My body still remembered him so clearly. Every time I thought about his touch, I felt that familiar flutter in my chest and the warmth between my legs.But my mind wouldn’t let me rest. The conversation I had overheard between him and Everett kept playing over and over — the talk about “the video,” the desperate plan to film me again, the deal to make us disappear. I couldn’t keep pretending everything was okay.I sat up slowly, my heart beating fast. I knew
SEVEN NIGHTS WITH MY STEPFATHER Chapter 217
IVYThe silence after I told Cassian I needed space felt suffocating. He stood frozen in the middle of the room, his eyes wide with a raw fear that made my stomach twist. The man who had been my steady anchor — the one who held my hand through every dizzy spell and kissed my forehead like I was the only thing keeping him grounded — now looked like he was watching his entire world slip away. My own heart was cracking in two. One part still ached for the safety of his arms, for the way his touch made everything feel less scary. The other part was finally waking up, demanding answers I couldn’t keep ignoring.I had just confronted him about the conversation I overheard — the desperate talk about “the video,” the deal with Everett, the plan to take me far away so no one could find us. The words had poured out of me in a rush of hurt and confusion. Now Cassian’s face was pale, his hands trembling at his sides as he tried to find the right thing to say.“Ivy… please,” he whispered, his voi
SEVEN NIGHTS WITH MY STEPFATHER Chapter 216
IVY The big room felt smaller with every passing minute, the weight of what I had overheard pressing down on my chest until I could barely breathe. I couldn’t pretend anymore. The conversation between Cassian and Everett kept replaying in my head — the pressure about “the video,” the deal to make me disappear, the way Cassian had sounded desperate and trapped. My heart was breaking, but a new strength was growing inside me too. I needed the truth, even if it destroyed everything. Cassian came into the room after dinner, closing the door softly behind him. He looked tired, his shoulders heavy, but he still smiled at me the way he always did — gentle, protective, like I was the only thing that mattered. That smile used to make me feel safe. Tonight it only made the pain sharper. I sat on the edge of the bed, my hands clasped tightly in my lap so he wouldn’t see them shaking. “Cassian, we need to talk. Right now.” He walked over and sat beside me, reaching for my hand. “What’s wrong,

Sarah’s wedding day arrived like a whirlwind of glitter and nerves, and I was right in the middle of it.I had spent way too long in front of my mirror that morning, second-guessing every choice. The dress was a deep emerald green silk that hugged my curves without being too obvious, with a subtle

His hands never rushed. They skimmed the waistband of my jeans, tracing the skin just above it with the same deliberate patience he used when he adjusted a light meter, as if every millimeter mattered. His eyes stayed locked on mine, dark and unreadable in the red glow of the exit sign, daring me

I woke before the sun, before the house stirred, before the lie could settle back over everything like fresh snow.I showered in water so hot it left my skin red, scrubbed every inch of myself until I couldn’t smell him anymore, then dressed in the plainest clothes I could find: gray sweatpants, an

The final full day at the lake house passed like a slow-motion car crash.The client was a brunette with legs for days and a laugh that filled the studio. Cassian worked with his usual precision, but the energy was wrong. Flat. Every time he glanced at me, I looked away. Every time he said my name,
