"Jane's Withdrawal"

Jane's POV

I hadn't left my apartment in three days. I hadn't answered my phone in three days. I hadn't eaten a real meal in three days.

I just sat on my couch in my pajamas, staring at the wall.

Every time my phone rang, I looked at the screen to see who it was. Christian had called eighteen times. Jared had called forty-three times. Sandra had called twelve times.

I didn't answer any of them.

What was the point? Everyone I trusted had lied to me. Everyone I loved had hurt me.

My phone buzzed with another text from Jared: "Please let me explain. I love you. Please."

I deleted it without reading the whole thing.

Then another text from Christian: "Jane, I'm worried about you. Please call me back."

I deleted that one too.

I pulled a blanket over my head and tried to disappear.

But even under the blanket, I could hear someone knocking on my door.

"Jane! I know you're in there!" Sandra's voice was loud and worried.

I didn't answer.

"Jane, open this door or I'm calling

    "The Fall of Crypto Link"Jane's POVI woke up in a hospital bed three days later. My head was pounding, and I couldn't remember how I got there."Jane?" Christian's voice sounded tired and worried. "You're awake.""What happened? Why am I in the hospital?""You collapsed after the shooting. The doctors said it was exhaustion and shock.""How long have I been sleeping?""Three days."I tried to sit up, but everything hurt. "Where is everyone? Is Sandra okay?""Sandra is fine. She's been here every day, but she just went home to shower.""What about Jared?""Jared is alive. He's in the room next to yours.""Is he okay?""He's going to be fine. The bullet went clean through his shoulder."I felt relief wash over me. "And the others? Alec?""Everyone is okay, Jane. You're the only one who ended up in the hospital.""What happened to Crypto Link?"Christian sat down in the chair next to my bed. He looked like he hadn't slept in days."They're gone, Jane. All of them.""Gone how?""Arreste

    "Blood and Betrayal"Jane's POVEverything happened in slow motion and fast motion at the same time.Marcus pulled his gun, and I heard Christian shout "Get down!" but my feet wouldn't move. I just stood there, frozen, watching the barrel of the gun point at my chest.Then Jared threw himself in front of me.The gunshot was so loud it made my ears ring. Jared's body hit mine, and we both fell to the ground. I could feel something warm and wet soaking through my shirt."Jared?" I whispered.He was lying on top of me, breathing hard. "Jane, are you hurt?""I don't think so. But you're bleeding.""I know."There was blood everywhere. On my clothes, on the sidewalk, on Jared's face. I could hear more gunshots behind us."Jared, we need to get you to a hospital.""We need to get you safe first.""I am safe. You're the one who got shot.""Jane, they're still shooting."I looked up and saw Christian and Alec crouched behind a car, firing guns at three men who had gotten out of the black sed

    "The Crypto War"Jane's POVChristian, Jared, Sandra, and Alec were sitting around my kitchen table with papers spread everywhere. They'd been planning for three hours, and I was getting tired of being left out."So let me understand this," I said. "You're planning to catch Crypto Link, but I'm supposed to hide in my bedroom?""Jane, it's too dangerous," Christian said."Too dangerous for who? They're after me, not you.""That's exactly why you need to stay hidden.""No. That's exactly why I need to be involved."Jared looked up from the papers. "Jane, these people have already tried to kill you multiple times.""And they've failed every time.""So far.""So far is all that matters."Sandra put her hand on my arm. "Jane, we just want to keep you safe.""I don't want to be safe. I want this to end.""It will end. But you don't need to be in the middle of it.""Yes, I do."Alec looked at everyone. "Maybe Jane has a point.""What do you mean?" Christian asked."I mean Crypto Link wants

    "Amanda's Last Gamble"Jane's POVI was sitting in my apartment with Christian and Sandra when Veronica called me, sounding panicked."Jane, you need to turn on Channel 7 right now.""Why? What's happening?""Amanda is giving a press conference. She's saying terrible things about you.""What kind of terrible things?""Just turn on the TV. Now."Christian grabbed the remote and switched to Channel 7. Amanda was standing at a podium outside a hotel, wearing a black dress and looking very serious. There were at least twenty reporters in front of her."Oh no," I whispered."What is she doing?" Sandra asked."Something stupid," Christian said.On the TV, Amanda was speaking into microphones. "I'm here today to tell the truth about P&G Industries and Jane Walton.""She used my real name," I said quietly."The woman you know as Jane Phillips-Garrett is actually Jane Walton, a former teacher who has been lying about her background for years.""This is bad," Sandra said.Amanda continued. "The

    "Crypto Link Strikes Back"Christian's POVI was reading the morning news about Jane's company when my phone buzzed with a text from an unknown number. When I opened it, my blood went cold.It was a photo of Jane. But not a recent photo. This was Jane from years ago, maybe college-aged, standing outside what looked like a dormitory. She was smiling and carrying books.Below the photo was a message: "We know everything about Jane Walton. Every place she's lived. Every school she's attended. Every lie she's told. Pay us now or everyone finds out who she really is."I immediately called Jane."Jane, we have a problem.""What now?""Crypto Link just sent me a photo of you from college.""What? How do they have a photo from college?""I don't know. But Jane, they've been watching you for a long time.""How long?""Years. Maybe since before we even met."I heard Jane breathing heavily through the phone. "Christian, what do they want?""Money. And they're threatening to expose your real back

    "The Media Storm"Jane's POVI woke up the next morning to my phone buzzing with calls from numbers I didn't recognize. I ignored them and walked to my kitchen to make coffee, but when I looked out the window, my heart stopped.There were at least twenty reporters outside my apartment building."Oh my god," I whispered.I grabbed my laptop and opened a news website. The headline made me feel sick:"SECRET CEO REVEALED: Fashion Mogul Jane Phillips-Garrett Is Holmes Family Wife!"Below that was a picture of Christian putting my wedding ring back on my finger at the gala."This can't be happening," I said to myself.I clicked on the article. It was worse than I'd imagined."Jane Phillips-Garrett, the mysterious CEO of P&G Industries, was revealed last night to be the wife of billionaire Christian Holmes. The couple, who sources say have been living separately for months, appeared to reconcile at a charity gala where Phillips-Garrett was honored as one of New York's top entrepreneurs."I
