DELILAH

I can't sleep because every time I close my eyes, I keep seeing the photos. Cassy on her knees, collared, looking at Sienna Vale like she's the only thing in the world that matters.

My brilliant, beautiful, cruel sister who once had the world at her feet… reduced to this. And the worst part? She doesn't even see it. She thinks this is penance. She thinks she deserves this.

Maybe she does… I don't know anymore, but I can't keep living in this apartment, pretending this is normal like I d

  • THE RUIN OF CASSY BEAUMONT: BOUGHT AND BROKEN   THREE DAYS I

    CASSYI wake up on the couch. Delilah must have covered me with a blanket at some point during the night. The laptop is still open on the coffee table, frozen on the page showing the wire transfer from Singapore to Daniel Ross.Proof that my mother paid him to destroy Sienna. My phone is next to the laptop. Six new texts from Sienna, sent throughout the night, Hong Kong time.SIENNA: I found the payment. Your mother funded Daniel Ross. I'm tracking down more proof.SIENNA: I know you're asleep but I need you to know I'm handling this.SIENNA: I can't sleep. I keep thinking about that look on your face during the video call.SIENNA: Three more days. I know it feels like forever. But I'm coming home to you.SIENNA: I miss you.SIENNA: Morning check-in. I need to hear your voice.It's 7:50 AM here. Which means it's 8:50 PM there. She's probably in her hotel room, waiting. So I call her.She answers on the first ring. "Cassy." The relief in her voice is overwhelming."Hi," I say."Did you

  • THE RUIN OF CASSY BEAUMONT: BOUGHT AND BROKEN   LIES AND PROMISES

    CASSYI look at her face on the screen. At the fear in her eyes. The vulnerability I almost never see. Her pupils are dilated and huge, like she's terrified of losing me."I don't know," I say honestly."Then wait," she says. "Don't do anything. Don't talk to that journalist again or make any decisions. Just... wait for me. I'll finish this deal and come home and we'll figure this out together. Can you do that?""How long?""Three more days. Four at most. I'll cut it as short as I can.""And what am I supposed to do for three days?""You're supposed to trust me." Her voice softens. "Please, Cassy. I'm asking you to trust me. Even if you don't know if you can. Even if you're scared. Just... wait for me."I look at this woman who bought me, broke me, and made me hers. Who might have done the same thing to Emily Richardson. She might be lying to me right now or telling the truth."Okay," I whisper. "I'll wait.""Thank you." She closes her eyes. "I have to go. I have calls to make. I'll h

  • THE RUIN OF CASSY BEAUMONT: BOUGHT AND BROKEN   EVIDENCE AND DOUBT

    CASSYI make it back to the penthouse by eight-thirty. My hands are shaking so badly I can barely press the elevator button.Delilah is on the couch, halfway through another movie. She looks up when I walk in."Hey, how was your walk?" she asks. Then she sees my face. "Cass? What's wrong?""Nothing," I lie. "I'm just tired. I'm going to bed.""It's barely nine...""I'm tired, Delilah."I walk to the bedroom before she can ask more questions. Close the door and lock it.Then I sit on the edge of Sienna's bed… our bed and stare at the folder in my hands.Daniel Ross. Investigative journalist.-You're not the first.-The photos of those girls burned into my mind. Emily, Sarah and Grace. All of them had similar features like me. All of them were destroyed.I should throw this away. I should call Sienna right now and tell her what happened. Let her handle it.But what if it's true?What if I'm just another Emily? Another girl who fell in love with Sienna Vale and didn't survive it?My phon

  • THE RUIN OF CASSY BEAUMONT: BOUGHT AND BROKEN   WHILE SHE'S AWAY II

    CASSYI'm on the couch with Delilah, halfway through a rom-com neither of us is really watching. My phone buzzes. I glance at the screen.It's an email from an unknown sender.Subject line: Do you know the dark secret about Sienna Vale?My stomach drops, I check the time and its 3pm, then I open it.Ms. Beaumont,My name is irrelevant. What matters is what I know about the woman you're currently living with.Sienna Vale has done this before. The contract and control. The breaking down of young women who remind her of someone from her past.You're not the first. And if you don't walk away, you won't be the last.I have proof, photos, testimonies and evidence that will destroy her but I need to speak with you first. In person.Meet me tonight. 7 PM. Washington Square Park. South fountain.Come alone. Or I release everything I have to the press. Including these, which by the way would make an interesting headline.Attached are three photos.Me at the gilded cage, on my knees, collared. L

  • THE RUIN OF CASSY BEAUMONT: BOUGHT AND BROKEN   WHILE SHE'S AWAY I

    CASSYAfter the confrontation, I walked away from Delilah and locked myself in Sienna's bedroom… the penthouse is too quiet.I hear Delilah moving around in the guest room. Opening and closing drawers. She's probably pacing, processing what just happened the same way I am but we don't talk.I lie on Sienna's bed… our bed, I guess, and stare at the ceiling. The collar is still around my throat. I could take it off, after all Sienna isn't here but I don't take it off because even when she's not here, I'm still hers.Around nine PM, I hear the elevator and my whole body tenses. I know it's Sienna. So I sit up, smooth down my hair, adjust the collar so it sits perfectly. Old habits I have been trained to respond to.The bedroom door opens. She looks exhausted but when her eyes find me on the bed, something in her expression softens. Just barely."Hey," she says."Hey," I say back.We look at each other for a long moment. The confrontation hangs between us."I'm sorry," I say finally. "Abo

She's always up early. She runs on coffee, control, and probably spite.I get dressed and walk to the kitchen. Sienna is there, as expected. Sitting at the breakfast bar with her tablet and coffee. She glances up when I enter. "Good morning.""We need to talk," I say.Her eyebrow raises slightly. "About?""About my sister and what you're doing to her."Sienna sets down her tablet. She
