I feel like I've got elephants running marathons in my head; it hurts so much.

I tried to open my eyes and immediately closed them right up, the lights were blinding and my headache spiked. Groaning slightly, I managed to croak out,

“Where am I?”

A quick memory jump made me reflexively reach for my belly.

Someone was trying to kill my pup, my mind rang, and I immediately sprang up despite the headache.

I saw Harold, Patricia, Brian, and of course... Vicky. At the other side of the room, they all looked tired.

Trying so hard to remain calm and not reach out to rip Vicky's hair out and continuously slam her head against the hospital walls, I heard Harold say,

“She’s finally awake,” snapping everyone’s attention toward me. Patricia and Harold looked really concerned.

But I felt more like a fool under that gaze. How dare they! I trusted them with my heart, but mocking me in my plight? I felt like a fool, but at the same time, I got it. I mean... I did ruin them. But it’s high time we went

  • SINFUL KNOT LUSTING FOR MY BEST FRIEND'S DAD   CHAPTER 100— Blank slate (2)

    I woke up to a room that felt too large for me.The ceiling was unfamiliar, carved with patterns I did not recognize yet somehow my eyes traced them like they belonged to me. The sheets were soft, expensive. My body felt heavy, like I had slept for days, and yet my mind was empty in a way that scared me more than pain ever could.Empty.Not peaceful. Not quiet.Just blank.I turned my head slowly. The movement felt clumsy, delayed, as if my body had learned how to exist before my mind had learned how to follow.There was a chair by the bed.A man sat there.The moment our eyes met, something shifted inside my chest. A pull. A warmth. Not memory, not recognition, but instinct. Like my soul leaned toward him even when my mind could not explain why.“You’re awake,” he said softly.His voice did something strange to me. It settled me and unsettled me at the same time.I opened my mouth to speak, then froze.Words felt distant. Like I knew how to use them but had forgotten what to say.He

    They did not let me be alone for long.People kept coming in and out of the room, speaking softly like I might break if they raised their voices. They smiled too much. Watched my face carefully, as though waiting for a reaction that never came.I learned quickly that silence made them uneasy.So I talked.Not because I had things to say, but because it seemed expected of me.At breakfast, Valery sat across from me, elegant and composed, her movements slow and deliberate. She asked me how I slept.“I slept,” I replied.She laughed lightly, as though that was charming. “Do you feel rested?”I considered the question. My body did not hurt. My mind did not ache. But there was a constant pressure behind my eyes, like something unfinished.“I feel awake,” I said.Harold watched me over the rim of his cup. His gaze never drifted far from me, as if he was afraid I might disappear if he blinked too long.Moana spoke next. She talked about the weather, about the garden, about a dress she was ha

  • SINFUL KNOT LUSTING FOR MY BEST FRIEND'S DAD   CHAPTER 98— White space.

    I woke up and I did not know my name.That was the first thing I understood.Not confusion. Not panic. Just a quiet, hollow awareness that there was nothing to reach for. No past. No anchor. My mind was clean in the most terrifying way. Like freshly fallen snow before anyone had walked across it.I stared at the ceiling for a long time.It was ornate. Expensive. The kind of ceiling people with money slept under. That much I knew, though I did not know how I knew it.The bed beneath me was soft. My body felt… used. Not injured. Just heavy, like it belonged to someone who had lived a life before today.I lifted my hand.It trembled.Interesting, I thought distantly.The door opened.A man stepped inside.Tall. Broad shoulders. Dark hair. Striking in a way that felt deliberate, like the world had taken time when it made him. His eyes softened when he saw me awake, relief flooding his face so fast it almost startled me.“You’re awake,” he said.His voice did something strange to my chest.

  • SINFUL KNOT LUSTING FOR MY BEST FRIEND'S DAD   CHAPTER 97— Sent back to you

    I should have trusted the unease.It sat low in my stomach long after Harold finally left my side to deal with the chaos downstairs. I told myself it was exhaustion. Trauma. The aftertaste of fear. But even as I lay in the bed, wrapped in clean sheets, washed and dressed and returned to a place that was supposed to be safe, my mind refused to settle.Something was wrong.Not loud wrong. Not dramatic wrong.Quiet wrong.The kind that waited.A soft knock came at the door.“It’s me,” Vicky said. “May I come in?”My fingers curled into the sheets.“No,” I answered immediately.There was a pause. Then the door opened anyway.She stepped inside carrying a tray. A cup sat in the center, steam curling lazily upward. The scent reached me at once. Sweet. Herbal. Familiar in the most unsettling way.I pushed myself upright. “Get out.”She closed the door behind her with deliberate care. “You’re shaken. You shouldn’t be alone right now.”“I said get out,” I repeated, sharper this time.Vicky sig

  • SINFUL KNOT LUSTING FOR MY BEST FRIEND'S DAD   CHAPTER 96— Two Harolds

    Harold left me with more questions than answers.That alone was enough to keep me awake.After he walked out, the room felt emptier than before, as though his presence had been holding something in place and its absence allowed it to drift loose. Kade lingered by the door for a while, silent, watchful. Eventually even he left, posting guards I could sense more than see.I was alone.At least, I thought I was.The charm lay against my chest, tucked beneath my clothes, warm and faintly pulsing like a second heartbeat. Every time I tried to ignore it, it reminded me it existed. Every time I focused on it, my thoughts slipped sideways, like I was brushing the edge of a memory that refused to be caught.I closed my eyes and leaned back against the bed.Breathe.That was what Harold always told me when things grew too loud. When the world pressed in and my wolf paced and my heart forgot its rhythm.I breathed.And something breathed back.Not in the room.Inside me.My eyes snapped open.Th

  • SINFUL KNOT LUSTING FOR MY BEST FRIEND'S DAD   CHAPTER 95— Fright

    I did not sleep.Sleep felt like surrender, and surrender had never been safe for me.The room they kept me in was not a dungeon. That alone should have frightened me more. It was clean, warm, almost gentle. A place meant to calm rather than punish. A place designed for someone who was expected to cooperate eventually.That thought made my skin crawl.I sat on the edge of the bed, arms wrapped around myself, breathing slowly, counting each inhale like it might anchor me to something real. My wrists still remembered the restraints even though they were gone. My body remembered fear even when nothing actively threatened it.What I could not forget was Harold’s face.Not the masked man. Not the sharper version that stood behind Valery like a shadow carved into human shape.Harold.The one who had knelt in front of me and rubbed my wrists. The one who had whispered my name like it was prayer and confession tangled together.I believed him when he said he loved me.That was the cruelest pa
