Lila The penthouse smells of coffee and cedar, sunlight pouring through the blinds filling the room.with light. I wake to Ethan’s lips on my collarbone, his hand splayed across my stomach.The false-positive test is buried in a drawer. "i could stay here forever,” he murmurs, voice rough with sleep. I roll into him, legs tangling. “ You’re getting sentimental.” He nips my ear. “I’m getting laid. There’s a difference.” I laugh, shoving his shoulder. “Romantic.” “Always.” He kisses me slow, lazy, the kind of kiss that says we have all morning. My hands slide under his T-shirt, mapping the ridges I’ve memorized twice over. We move together until the sheets are twisted and the headboard bangs against the wall. After, we shower. He washes my hair, thumbs massaging my scalp until I melt. I trace the scar on his cheek. “Still mad I gave you this?” I ask. He kisses my wrist, right over the tattoo. “Still proud you fought for me.” Breakfast is on the terrace. Theres French toast dro

Lila The morning after the board dinner, Ethan and I wake up to a perfect surprise. Page Six’s headline screams across every phone in the city: GRANT HEIR CHOOSES CHAOS OVER CELESTE: KISS SEEN ROUND THE WORLD Below it there's a crystal-clear shot of Ethan kissing me at The Pierre, my emerald gown slipping off one shoulder, his hand at my throat. The comments are feral. “She’s the villain we deserve.” “Celeste who?” “I’d burn a house for that kiss. I’m still laughing when the elevator chimes at 8:03 a.m. But its not the concierge this time. It's Celeste herself. She steps into the penthouse like she owns it. She's in a white trench cinched tight around her waist. sunglasses hiding last night’s defeat, red soles flashing like fresh blood. Eleanor trails behind her, lips painted the same shade of disapproval she’s worn since Ethan first told her he wanted to marry me. Ethan’s in the kitchen, shirtless, pouring us coffee. He doesn’t flinch. “Mother. Celeste. To what do w

Lila The penthouse is bathed in morning sun light when the doorbell chimes loudly, interrupting the peaceful silence. Ethan’s in the kitchen, sleeves rolled, pouring espresso. I’m on the terrace in his white shirt, sketching the skyline on a napkin, the false-positive test already forgotten in the drawer. I've decided to move past it. “Almost ready babe,” he calls. I smile. “Take your time.” The intercom crackles. “Mr. Grant, your mother is here.” Ethan’s jaw tightens immediately. “Send her up.” I set the pencil down. “Eleanor?” He nods. “She’s here.” The elevator opens on a woman carved from ice and old money, silver hair in a flawless chignon, pearls at her throat, eyes the same storm-gray as Ethan’s but colder. Eleanor Grant. She takes in the penthouse, the napkin sketch, me in his shirt. Her lips thin. Eleanor has never liked me or she hated my guts like crazy. I can't prove it but I know she definitely celebrated the divorce when it happened. All because I wouldn't let

Lila I wake to a familiar cramp low in my belly, the kind that used to announce itself every twenty-eight days like clockwork. My mood immediately switches. The penthouse is still dark, the city lights are twinkling through the blinds in silver stripes. Ethan’s arm is heavy across my waist, his breath is warm and husky on my neck. I slip from the bed, careful not to wake him, and walk to the bathroom as quietly as possible. The marble is cold. I sit on the toilet and pull off my underwear. Its red. Red. Not much, just enough to stain, enough to confirm what my body already knows. The nausea, the missed coffee, the positive test yesterday, it was all a ghost. A mistake. My period was just late from the stress and smoke and the chaos of the past few days that felt like a lifetime. I stare at the evidence, relief and grief tangling in my chest. No baby. Not yet. I flush the bloody tissue, wash my hands, splash water on my face. The mirror shows a woman with wild hair and Et

Lila The safe-room door opens onto a world of smoke and silence.It looks like a bomb hit the estate almost like a scene out of an action movie. The estate is a skeleton of glowing embers. Ethan’s arms are still locked around me, his heartbeat a steady drum against my spine. We step over charred beams and melted marble, the wedding band on my finger catching stray sparks like mini fireworks. “Day eight,” I whisper. He kisses the raven tattoo on my wrist. “I love you.” He whispers The helicopter waits on the pad, its blades slicing into the cool night air. Marco, Ethan’s pilot, nods once at me. We lift off and the Hamptons shrinks into a tiny dot by the minute. After a while we land at Manhattan.The penthouse helipad is lit with bright lights, the city is glittering around our tower. We land softly and The elevator drops us into the foyer. Ethan carries me like we’re newlyweds again. I laugh into his neck. “We already did this.” “Not like this.” He sets me on the kitchen islan

LilaThe sky is still very darkwhen we leave the house. I’m in Ethan’s black hoodie, its sleeves are pushed to my elbows, the raven on my wrist still wet from the spray paint. He’s in black cargo pants,black boots and a shoulder holster with two guns. I'm taking in the view and I love it, i smile to myself and giggle a bit, the goal was to seduce him and now I'm shooting at bad guys with him. Take that Celeste.We take the Mustang and the engine snarls awake, gravel crunching under the tires. Ethan drives with one hand on the wheel, the other on my thigh, his thumb stroking the bruise he left there last night. I don’t move it. I need him, he's like drugs.The pier in is a rotting skeleton twenty miles east. We’ll be early. Good. Let them think we’re desperate.We’re not.“Rules,” Ethan says, eyes on the road. “You stay behind me. You see a weapon, you shoot. No hesitation.”I check the Glock he gave me. Safety off. Mag full. “I hesitate, I die. Got it, You're quite the bad Influenc
