Officer Sarah Clark sat at her desk, staring at the closed folder in front of her, her jaw so tight she could feel the muscle jumping beneath her skin. The interview with Liam Carr had gone exactly as she'd expected, which was precisely the problem. She had hoped he would slip and say something. But he’d been perfect. Too perfect, with the right amount of shock, the right amount of concern, the right amount of contrition mixed with righteous indignation. Every word carefully chosen, every emoti

    "What kind of advice?"Sarah checked her weapon, made sure it was secure in her holster. "The kind that might keep her alive. The kind that says don't wait for us to save you, because by the time we can legally intervene, it might be too late. The kind that says trust your bodyguard, trust your instincts, and be ready to run if you have to. Get a firearms license and shoot the bastard if she gets a chance.""Sarah, that's not exactly protocol. What if she repeats it?""Fuck protocol." The words came out sharp, edged with all the frustration she'd been holding in. "You know how many domestic violence victims I've talked to who said they called us for help and we couldn't do anything? How many stalking victims who ended up dead because we had to wait for them to be in imminent danger before we could act? How many times imminent danger meant already dying? The restraining order means nothing to these guys."Roads didn't argue. He'd seen the same cases, attended the same funerals."Just b

    Officer Sarah Clark sat at her desk, staring at the closed folder in front of her, her jaw so tight she could feel the muscle jumping beneath her skin. The interview with Liam Carr had gone exactly as she'd expected, which was precisely the problem. She had hoped he would slip and say something. But he’d been perfect. Too perfect, with the right amount of shock, the right amount of concern, the right amount of contrition mixed with righteous indignation. Every word carefully chosen, every emotion precisely calibrated to paint himself as the misunderstood nice guy rather than the obsessive stalker she knew he was.And she couldn't prove otherwise. Not yet."Fuck," she muttered under her breath, opening the folder again even though she'd memorized every detail.Lauren Gardener's case wasn't the first stalking situation she'd handled. Wouldn't be the last. But something about this one made her skin crawl in a way that went beyond professional concern. Maybe it was the progression. Maybe

    Let them chew on that. Plant the seed that maybe the ape was the problem, not Liam. That maybe Lauren was being controlled by this aggressive boyfriend who didn't want her working with other men.Clark said carefully, "Did he threaten you?""He grabbed my wrist." Liam held up his arm, though there were no marks there. Nothing visible. "Pulled me away from Lauren. Told me I was 'hurting her' when I was just performing the scene as written. His behavior was very aggressive and inappropriate toward me. Maybe I should be the one pressing charges."Clark made more notes. "Let's go back to the physical contact. You said you grabbed Miss Gardener's arm as part of the scene?""If that's what the script called for, yes. I don't specifically remember. I was in character, focused on the emotional truth of the moment. That's how method acting works. You become the character so completely that you're not thinking about the mechanics anymore. You're just... being.""And you don't recall gripping he

    The knock on the front door came at 8:47 AM.Liam had been awake for hours, sitting on the edge of the sofa, staring at his cracked phone screen. Planning his next steps. Running through scenarios of how to remove the ape from Lauren's life without leaving evidence that could be traced back to him.He got up and looked through the peephole, he saw it was the police. Fuck.He should have known they would come eventually. Had prepared for it. Had his story straight, his expression practiced, his lawyer's number ready to dial. This was that ape's doing.Three more knocks, harder this time."Mr. Carr? NYPD. We need to speak with you."Liam checked his reflection in the mirror mounted near the front door. He looked tired, dark circles under his eyes, stubble shadowing his jaw, but that worked in his favor. The concerned artist, losing sleep over a misunderstanding. The dedicated actor, devastated that his craft had been misinterpreted.He opened the door, two uniformed officers stood in th

    Liam sat in his car down the street from Lauren's building, his hands gripping the steering wheel so tight his knuckles had gone white.That kiss.That fucking kiss.The ape had put his hands on her. Had claimed her mouth in front of everyone. In front of him. Like Liam didn't matter. Like what he and Lauren had meant nothing, when they meant everything.His Lauren. His beautiful, perfect Lauren, letting that Neanderthal defile her with his touch.Liam's chest felt tight, his breathing coming in short, sharp bursts. The rage was building again, that red haze that made it hard to think, hard to focus on anything except the wrongness of what he'd witnessed.She'd kissed him back. That was the worst part. She hadn't just stood there and tolerated it, but actually kissed him back. Her body had melted into the ape's, her hands had come up to grip his shirt, and for those few seconds, she'd looked... happy."No, that can't be right." Liam muttered, shaking his head. "No, that's not real. He

    The police station was depressing as far as Lauren was concerned. She had been here before, but the police hadn't wanted to do anything... They had told her Liam hadn't crossed a line and just couldn't take no as an answer. He would come around.Wyatt's hand never left the small of her back as they entered, his other hand holding his phone where he'd taken multiple photos of the bruises already forming on her arm. Angry red marks in the clear shape of fingers, already darkening to purple at the edges.Lauren had texted the photo shoot coordinator from the car, apologizing profusely, explaining there'd been an incident and she needed to reschedule. The coordinator had been understanding, told her not to worry, that they'd find another time this week and get back to her.One more thing Liam had stolen from her. One more professional obligation disrupted because of his obsession."Wyatt." A familiar voice called out as they approached the desk.Nate stood near the entrance to the back off

    Grayson stared at his phone, Morgan's two little words echoing in his ears. "I'm pregnant." "I'm pregnant."He felt like he had just been thrown a hand grenade with the pin pulled and that any second now it would explode in his face."What did you just say?" He didn't know why he was asking; his he

    "I've been thinking about this all day," he said, his voice roughening. "About you kneeling for me, about claiming you."Honey knelt before Sir, her pulse thrumming with anticipation as she gazed up at his masked face. The heat in his eyes sent ripples of desire through her body, making her nipples

    Honey arrived at the police station with Amanda. She took a deep breath, steadying herself for what lay ahead. The bruise on her face throbbed despite the medication she'd taken throughout the day."Before we go in," Amanda said, her voice uncharacteristically hesitant, "I need to tell you somethin
