Elowen’s POV

It was the weekend, and I had been lazying on my bed all day.

I was glad Rita had respected my plea to let me have my Saturday. Yesterday, at work, it had been hectic. It was like someone had intentionally stuffed me with more files to sort, both virtual and physical.

Lilia was insufferable. She only offered her not-so-good help whenever she felt like it. But what made the day much easier was that Damon hadn't stepped into the office even once.

I yawned, placing my palm on my fo

  • The Man I Kissed Became My Father-in-law   The Freedom He Didn't Earn.

    EthanThe first thing I wanted to do after getting released from prison was put a fucking bullet in the Moretti heir's head.I couldn't believe I'd spent three straight days being treated like trash, sleeping on a hard mattress for crimes I couldn't even remember committing. And only one person could be ruthless enough to do that to me.All because I'd gone to see a woman.A woman who, as far as Leo was concerned, belonged to him.Fool.The more I pictured his slimy face, the more I wanted to make it unrecognisable. The man had no idea how much I wanted to ruin him, but I knew it was best for me to lay low, especially when I'd only just been released.But something else bothered me.The charges against me had been withdrawn. Just like that.A few calls here and there, and suddenly, I was a free man. That was damn suspicious. I knew Leo had put me there, and he'd have preferred that I rotted in that cell rather than let me out.Which left me with one question.Who had pulled the string

  • The Man I Kissed Became My Father-in-law   The Baddest player.

    Elowen's POV I couldn't believe the audacity of Damon Moretti.Of all the things he could have asked of me, he had chosen that.His son's wife.He wanted his son's wife to become his secret lover.What the actual fuck was wrong with him?I almost laughed. The audacity of this man! I stormed out of his study before I could say something that would earn me another reason to hate him. The door slammed behind me, and I didn't bother looking back.So this was the price of my freedom? No way. Damon had to be out of his fucking mind if he thought I would agree to his ridiculous offer.At least, that was what I told myself as I walked back to my room. And yet, two words kept following me. My divorce.I finally got to my room, but I just couldn't sleep. I knew it was a huge mistake to have kissed a stranger in the bar that night, but I never expected it to haunt me to this day. I was cooked. Apparently, my father-in-law wanted to see me burn. It was midnight, and my balcony felt peacef

  • The Man I Kissed Became My Father-in-law   The Devil's Terms.

    Elowen’s POVIt was the weekend, and I had been lazying on my bed all day. I was glad Rita had respected my plea to let me have my Saturday. Yesterday, at work, it had been hectic. It was like someone had intentionally stuffed me with more files to sort, both virtual and physical. Lilia was insufferable. She only offered her not-so-good help whenever she felt like it. But what made the day much easier was that Damon hadn't stepped into the office even once. I yawned, placing my palm on my forehead. I reached toward my bedside table for my phone. It was already two in the afternoon. Wow.When my phone unlocked, a chat was displayed on the screen. I must have fallen asleep with that chat open. I remembered how badly I'd wanted a reply from Leo. Two days had passed since I'd walked out of that draining room. During that time, neither my calls nor my texts had received a reply. Not like I wanted to return to Ethan. I only wanted to know if he was still alive. That was on top of Leo

  • The Man I Kissed Became My Father-in-law   Like Father, Like Son.

    Elowen's POV I didn't even know what to think about the father and son who were throwing icy daggers at each other. My wrist hurt, and I just wanted him to let go of me. “Since when do you care about what I do with my wife?”Not that I was interested, but I wanted to know what his response would be. None came. Leo sighed and released me. My wrist throbbed as feeling slowly returned to my hand. If anyone had told me that my supposed husband would try to force me into something against my will, I'd have thrown hands. I realized I didn't know what kind of people they were. Rumours had always surrounded them, but I was beginning to experience their cruelty firsthand. “Son, why don't you go calm yourself with a drink?”Calm himself with a drink? As if that would help.“No. I'm not done with her.”See? That was not so tempting to Leo. How was that supposed to work? I knew I needed to leave that room as soon as possible before he displayed his madness again.I was torn between trying to

  • The Man I Kissed Became My Father-in-law   We had been tracked.

    Elowen's POVEven as the engines drew closer, he held onto my hand more tightly.The three cars drove recklessly, as though they were chasing a criminal. The headlights mixed with the bright sunlight, almost blinding me.When I finally realised who I was actually holding onto, I jerked my hand away from his in a haste. But it was too late. The black cars stopped nearby.Oh no. We had been tracked.From the corner of my eye, I could see the tension rise in Ethan as his expression changed. “Elowen, get behind me,” he whispered with a firm voice.That would have reassured me if this had happened before, but now, I only saw a mere man whispering words as though he could get himself out of whatever was coming our way. Honestly, that would have been the best time to get behind him and drive a dagger into him as revenge. But there was no point. I didn't even hold anything to defend myself if something was even going to happen.I couldn't understand why these cars would enter the manor ground

  • The Man I Kissed Became My Father-in-law   Will she go?

    Damon's POV*The Previous Evening*“Tell me again why I shouldn't blow your fucking head.”The man kneeling before me swallowed hard. Blood trickled from the corner of his mouth, staining the collar of his once-white polo. His hands trembled against his thighs, and he kept looking between me and the men standing behind him.Bastard.If you were going to try to outsmart me, at least have the courage to look me in the eyes when you face me.“You have nothing to say?” I asked.“Don Moretti, please. I can explain—”“Shush. I've heard enough.”I remembered every word of his horrible explanation. He had intentionally delayed the shipping. Got offered a better term by some outsider. He backstabbed me. And he had only wanted to secure his family's future.Apparently, he had forgotten whose money had built that future in the first place. Everything surrounding this greedy bastard had been made. By me.I rose from my chair and ran my palm to straighten a wrinkled part of my shirt. “Do you know
