Eden’s POV

By the time I stepped out of the bath, the house felt different. Not quiet in the way it used to feel when Lilian lived here, where silence had weight and teeth and always felt like it was waiting for someone to make a mistake, but quiet in a softer way, like the house itself had finally exhaled after holding its breath for far too long.

The steam clung to my skin as I dried off slowly, my muscles loose and warm, my thoughts anything but settled. The hot water had eased the ache in m

  • Taken by my stepfathers   Bedroom?

    Felix's POVI made it three blocks before I couldn’t do it.My hands were tight on the steering wheel, her taste still on my lips, the memory of her fingers laced with mine burning hotter than the streetlights sliding past. Every reason I’d given her at dinner was true. I was tired of walking away. And tonight, for once, I didn’t.I pulled over, killed the engine, and sat there for maybe thirty seconds. Then I was out of the car and walking back, fast, the cold night air doing nothing to cool the blood pounding through me. By the time I reached her brownstone again, my heart was hammering like I’d run ten miles.I didn’t knock gently. I rapped hard, twice.The door opened faster than I expected. Greta stood there in the same dark green sweater, eyes wide, lips still faintly swollen from our kiss. For half a second we just stared at each other.“Felix—”I stepped inside, crowding her back, and kicked the door shut behind me. My mouth crashed down on hers before she could finish the sen

  • Taken by my stepfathers   What She Came For

    Felix's POVI picked the restaurant carefully, the small Italian place two blocks from her brownstone, nothing flashy, nothing that announced itself as a date because I wasn't entirely sure that's what this was, and I didn't want to put a name on it before she did. I got there early. Sat at a table near the back, away from the window, the kind of seat a man picks when he's trying to prove to himself he's not performing for anyone, not even the version of himself that usually needs an audience to feel like he exists.Greta showed up four minutes late, in a dark green sweater that made her look softer than I'd ever seen her, her hair down instead of pulled back the way she usually wore it like armor. She slid into the seat across from me and looked at my hands first, an old habit by now, checking that I'd kept my promise."No folder," I said, holding them up. "Told you.""I see that." But something in her face didn't quite match the lightness of her voice, a tightness around her eyes th

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The Long Game

    Greta's POVI waited until Felix's car cleared the corner before I picked up the burner phone, the one I kept taped inside the bathroom vent, the one none of Felix's careful little folders had ever thought to mention because none of his careful little folders knew it existed. Three rings, then his voice, clipped and impatient the way it always was when he thought I was wasting his time."Report," Marcus said."He's in deeper than I expected," I sat at the kitchen table, the same table where Felix had sat with his empty hands and his shaking apology, and I almost felt something looking at the chair he usually took. Almost. I'd learned a long time ago not to trust the almost. "He stopped touching the Schmidt girl. Won't say why, but I'd guess she's noticed something's off.""That's a problem.""That's an opportunity." I picked at a loose thread on the tablecloth, watching it unravel a little further with each pull. "If Eden's pulling back from him, he's going to come looking for somewhe

  • Taken by my stepfathers   Receipts

    Eden's POVMichael picked up on the second ring. "You alone?""I'm alone." I'd taken the stairs down to the wine cellar, the one room in the estate I trusted to be free of cameras, a holdover from when Daddy still kept his oldest bottles somewhere even his own family couldn't watch him visit. "Tell me.""It's not nothing." His voice had lost the careless edge he usually wore, the one he'd built fast in the weeks since he'd talked his way into this family with a body on a church floor as his entry fee. "Greta's been receiving wire transfers. Small ones, broken up so they don't trip anything automatic. Six deposits over the last month, each one under the reporting limit.""From who?""That's the part that took me longer than it should have." A pause, the sound of papers shifting somewhere on his end. "The account routes through three shells before it lands anywhere traceable. But I followed it back far enough to get a name on the original transfer. Daniel Cross."The name didn't mean an

  • Taken by my stepfathers   Old Debts

    Silas's POVI found Felix in the east wing gym at midnight, working the heavy bag with the kind of focus he usually reserved for nothing in his life. No music, no audience, and no joke loaded and ready for whoever walked in. Just him and the bag and the dull, heavy sound of his fists landing again and again until his knuckles were raw against the tape."You're going to break your hands," I said.He didn't stop. "Wouldn't be the worst thing that happened to me this week."I leaned against the doorframe and waited him out. Felix had never been able to keep punishing himself in silence once someone was watching. It was the one tell he couldn't smooth over with charm, the one place the mask actually slipped.He stopped eventually, breathing hard, sweat soaking through his shirt, and turned to face me with something close to defiance in his eyes, like he already knew what conversation I'd come to have and wanted to get ahead of it."You're here about Greta.""I'm here about Greta.""Then s

  • Taken by my stepfathers   The Cost

    Felix's POVI went back three days later with nothing in my hands. No folder, no coffee, no reason I could point to if anyone asked why I kept finding excuses to cross that bridge. I'd run out of gifts that let me avoid actually showing up as myself, and some part of me understood, even before I knocked, that today was the day I didn't get to hide behind one.Greta opened the door without the chain this time. She looked at my empty hands, then at my face, and something in her expression settled, like she'd been waiting to see if I'd come without an offering attached."No folder today," she said."No folder today.""Come in, then." She stepped back, and I followed her into the kitchen, where the same table sat between us, bare now except for two mugs she filled without asking if I wanted one. She set mine down across from her and sat, folding her hands in front of her like she was preparing for something neither of us had said out loud yet."I want to talk about the room," she said.I

  • Taken by my stepfathers   You are a debt that I am here to collect

    Daniel’s POVThe basement of my estate did not smell like the rest of the house. Upstairs, there was the scent of beeswax, old money, and Eden’s floral perfume. Down here, behind the soundproofed steel door, the air was cold, sterile, and smelled faintly of copper and industrial cleaner.It was a p

  • Taken by my stepfathers   Is she going to be your second wife?

    Daniel's POVI slept like a fucking baby. No nightmares, just black, heavy sleep that knocked me out cold the second my head hit the pillow.Which was ironic, considering the chaos that had detonated in my head the night before. And then I woke up to a hard dick, like I was some sort of teenager. I

    Daniel's POVThe door wasn’t locked. That was the first thing that hit me the second I tested the handle. I stood there for a moment longer than necessary, fingers still resting against the handle, eyes narrowing slightly as my mind immediately started spinning through possibilities. Careless? Unli
