Clover’s POV

Daisy is having a full blown toddler meltdown in a designer maternity dress, and I just… blink.

I slowly turn my head toward Grandma Turner. She’s sipping her drink like she’s watching a daytime soap, shoulders shaking with a quiet giggle. I close my eyes and exhale through my nose.

Lord, give me strength.

Daisy storms out, heels pounding, and I look at my mother.

“Lauren… does she do this often?”

Lauren sighs like this question has lived in her chest for years. “Actually? Yes. She

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Stupid People Consequences

    Daisy’s POV Knock. Knock. Knock.I don’t even bother saying anything. I just sigh and turn my head toward the hospital door as it swings open.Of course it's Detective Torres.Tight bun. Tight face. Tight-ass attitude.She walks in like she owns the room, hands clasped behind her back, that same annoying little smile sitting on her lips.“Well, Ms. Daisy Blackwood,” she says, dragging my name out like it’s something sour, “we’re gonna go ahead and get you prepped for transport. You’ll remain on the gurney.”I roll my eyes.She tilts her head slightly. “One thing’s for sure and two things for certain, you are pregnant… but you are also a nuisance.”I scowl. “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?”She lets out a short laugh. “It means your little stunt didn’t do anything except piss us off.”I look away from her, jaw tight.“Daisy,” she continues, her tone shifting just slightly, “I don’t think you understand what you lost. You had a family that loved you.”I scoff. “Yeah. Sure.”“No

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   False and Fake

    Lucas’s POV As we finally pull up to my parents’ house, the entire place is buzzing. Lights on, cars lined up, voices echoing faintly through the walls, and it already feels like one of those nights where everything is about to unfold whether we’re ready or not.I step out of the car, glancing over at Emily and Stephanie as they follow behind me, and the moment we walk inside, I clock the room.Clover’s here with Zade right by her side and, of course, Bennett and Terrence aren’t too far behind. Still in position, still alert… but I can already tell their presence is starting to ease up. Give it another week or two, maybe a month, and they won’t be needed like this anymore. Not unless something else blows up, which, knowing our lives lately, isn’t exactly impossible.I shut that thought down immediately.The second I step further into the house, my attention locks onto my mom.She looks… off.Sad.Clover’s beside her, gently patting her hand, trying to comfort her, and that alone tell

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Always More Drama

    Clover’s POVI wake up the next morning with a deep sigh of relief.For once… I can breathe.Number one... Daisy’s little scheme? Done and over. Everybody’s been caught, and I don’t have to keep looking over my shoulder every five seconds.Number two... Zade.I glance over at him, still knocked out beside me, lightly snoring like he doesn’t have a care in the world.And yeah… according to everything from the evidence, timelines, all of it, he didn’t cheat, but he still chose her in that moment over me.And that?That still pisses me off.That’s why I’ve been letting him work hard. Letting him prove himself. Letting him spin the block until I feel like it’s enough.I shift slightly, watching him.He looks… peaceful, very handsome, and calm.Too calm.I reach out and run my finger down his face, tracing his features. He really is beautiful.I lean in and press a soft kiss to his lips.He groans. “Mmm…”I laugh quietly. “I’m gonna use the bathroom, okay? Can you release me from your stee

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Jail Life

    Daisy’s POVI sigh as I sit in this damn jail holding area… just waiting.And it’s not like on TV. Not even close.There’s no little bed, no bench, no private space with a toilet tucked in the corner. None of that.I’m handcuffed to a chair in what looks like a crowded, run-down waiting room, surrounded by women I don’t know, and don’t want to know.There are so many of them.Some look strung out. Some look like they’ve been on the streets for years. A few look like they came from money and just got caught up in something stupid. One woman looks like she got the hell beat out of her.It’s chaos.And it smells like it too.I shift uncomfortably, rubbing my belly. I need to get out of here.The woman next to me leans over, eyeing me.“So… what you in for, prego?” she asks. “You kill your boyfriend or something?”I roll my eyes and turn away as much as I can, ignoring her.She laughs. “First baby, huh? Well, I got five.”I still don’t respond.I’m not about to sit here and have a convers

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   I Am My Brothers Keeper

    Zade’s POVAs I take my wife, and yes, she’s still my wife, legal separation or not, into this local eatery, I can’t help but feel a little lighter. It’s not some five-star spot, but it’s nice, comfortable, and familiar. The kind of place where you don’t have to pretend.They recognize the Smith name, so we don’t even wait. We’re seated immediately.We order quickly, and just as the server walks off, my phone starts ringing.I frown, glancing at the screen. “It’s your brother.”Clover shrugs, already reaching for her drink. “Go ahead. Pick it up.”I answer. “What’s going on, Luke?”He exhales on the other end. “Your brother Dustin’s at my office.”I sit up straighter. “Why is Dustin at your office?”“Well,” Lucas says, “Detective Torres contacted him. Daisy told them he might be the father of her baby and it's a fifty-fifty chance he might not be. He’s not handling it well.”I close my eyes for a second and shake my head. “Yeah… I figured he wouldn’t. He’s always been in love with her

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Truths and Love

    Lucas’s POVI wake up early the next morning back in my own bed.The only reason we stayed at my parents’ house was to watch Daisy and to see how she’d move, how she’d react. But after her little midnight escape? Yeah… that plan went out the window real quick.So we came home last night and waited for Daisy updates.And now my phone is blowing up like a damn emergency hotline.I sigh, rolling over, pulling Emily closer before pressing a kiss to her lips. She stirs, looking soft as hell in the morning light.God, she’s beautiful.I lean down, whispering in her ear, “Wake up. It’s another beautiful day being next to me.”She scrunches her nose. “Yes… and your breath is disgusting.”I grin and blow a little extra in her face.“Lucas, gross!”I laugh, kiss her cheek, and roll out of bed. “Alright, alright.”I head straight to the bathroom, handle my business, and grab my toothbrush because she wasn’t lying because my breath stinks.By the time I’m stepping into the shower, I hear the bath
