~HOLLY~

Morning feels so heavy.

Like the air itself is pressing down on my chest.

I’m sitting on my bed, my back against the headboard, my knees pulled tightly to my chest. The blanket is twisted around my legs, damp from the tears that won’t stop falling.

My eyes sting from crying.

My throat feels raw.

And my chest… God, my chest feels like someone carved something out of it and left the hollow behind.

I don’t even remember when I started crying.

Maybe it was when I wok

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   CLAIM HER COMPLETELY

    ~DAMIEN~The moment I tell Gabriel to take her to the guest room…Lucian snarls.It’s not subtle. It’s not controlled.It’s immediate.‘That was a mistake.’His voice rips through my head, deep and sharp, filled with disapproval.My jaw tightens as I watch Gabriel turn, Holly following him quietly like she doesn’t trust her own footing.‘You’re pushing them together,’ Lucian continues, pacing restlessly in the back of my mind. ‘Is that what you want? To watch your son take what is yours?’My fingers curl slightly at my sides.“It’s not like that,” I reply through the mind link, my tone clipped, controlled.Lucian lets out a low, dangerous growl.‘Then explain.’I exhale slowly, forcing my shoulders to stay relaxed, even though every instinct in me is screaming otherwise.“He needed space,” I tell him. “If I had taken her myself… he would have felt something.”Lucian goes quiet for half a second.Then…‘Felt what?’I glance toward the hallway they disappeared

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   IT DOESN'T FEEL LIKE A COINCIDENCE

    It hadn’t felt right.That’s what kept replaying in his head as he walked her down to the room.Because earlier that night… Gabriel hadn’t been asleep.He had been lying exactly the same way he always does… staring at the ceiling, lost in thoughts he couldn’t escape.And then he heard the front door opening in a soft and careful way.Almost like someone didn’t want to be noticed.His brows had furrowed instantly, because his father doesn’t sneak.Damien Blackwood doesn’t move quietly.He doesn’t hide.He doesn’t leave the house in the middle of the night like a man with something to conceal.But tonight… he did.Gabriel had sat up slowly, his heart beating just a little faster, listening to the faint around of footsteps.Then silence.And then, the door closing.He had gotten out of bed almost immediately, walked to his window, and there it was.His father’s car… pulling out of the driveway….fast, purposeful, and reckless.Like he knew exactly where he was going.Gabriel had frowned,

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   NEVER EXPECTED TO SEE HER

    For a moment… Gabriel thinks he’s imagining it.Because there’s no way.No way after weeks of silence… after nights spent staring at his phone, waiting for a message that never came…She’s just….here…. standing in his house, breathing the same air, looking exactly the same.And yet… not the same at all.His entire body goes still.Every muscle locks. Every thought disappears.Because Holly is right there.Right in front of him.His Holly.His chest tightens so suddenly it almost feels violent, like something inside him just snapped awake after being numb for too long.He wasn’t ready.God… he wasn’t ready for this.Not like this. Not without warning. Not with her walking in beside….his gaze flickers, and lands on his father.Something sharp twists in his chest instantly.His jaw clenches hard, because now it doesn’t just feel like shock anymore.It feels wrong.Everything about this feels wrong.Holly being here with his dad of all people, and at night.His fingers curl slightly at hi

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   IS SOMETHING GOING ON BETWEEN YOU AND MY DAD??

    ~HOLLY~The moment Gabriel's eyes lock on mine… everything inside me spirals.My heart starts beating so fast it feels wrong…..too loud, too hard, like it’s trying to break out of my chest.I’m standing there… right between them.Damien behind me.Gabriel in front of meHe’s right there.Not a memory. Not a thought I keep pushing away. Not a voice I replay in my head when I can’t sleep.He’s real, standing in front of me, breathing, looking at me.And God… the way he’s looking at me…..My chest tightens so painfully I almost stagger.His eyes don’t widen in shock. They don’t soften either.They just stay on me……cold, unreadable and heavy.Like I’m something he doesn’t recognize anymore.Like I’m someone he doesn’t want to recognize.My lips part, but nothing comes out.Not his name.Not a breath.Nothing.Silence stretches between us, thick and suffocating, until I feel like I’m drowning in it.I want to look away from Gabriel, but I don’t know where to look.

  • Tempting My Best Friend's Alpha Father   MOVING INTO HIS HOUSE

    ~HOLLY~I wish… I really wish I had another option.Anywhere else. Anyone else. But I don’t.And Damien…I know him.He won’t allow anything else.Not after what just happened.Not after someone came to my door.Fear creeps back into my chest at the memory, and I instinctively wrap my arms around myself.My fingers press into my skin as if I can physically hold myself together, as if I can stop the trembling crawling under my bones.I can’t stay here, and I know that.But going there…It feels like I’m walking straight into something I’ve been running from.A deep sigh leaves my lips again, and again, and again.“You’re thinking too much.”I freeze.My heart skips as I slowly turn my head toward the door.Damien is standing there, leaning slightly against the frame, his eyes fixed on me… sharp, observant, unreadable.How long has he been standing there? Watching me fall apart piece by piece?My breath catches.“I…” I start, then stop.Because what am I even suppos
