“What happened, Octavia?” Janet turned to me after the door closed in Noah’s room. “Did something happen between you two?”

My heart dropped as I remembered everything he had said to me. When he told me he knew about what I did to Giselle so they wouldn’t end up together.

For a moment, I felt as if I couldn’t breathe. My throat tightened, and my knees grew weak. When I left and went home, I hadn’t thought about what he said or whether he meant it.

I thought if I came home, he would tel

    •OCTAVIA•I was woken up by a screeching noise on the cell bars. A guard shouted before I could fully wake up. "Octavia North," he said as he opened my cell. "You're being moved. Take all your stuff and come with me." I swung my legs over the side of the bed with exaggerated calm, allowing my bare feet to touch the cold floor. Prison was the worst. I couldn't even sleep in without those grumpy prison guards waking me up for a cold bath, or a cleaning chore. “Am I being transferred to a suite?” I asked with a smirk as I stood up from the bed. But he didn't answer. Instead, he stepped inside, pulled my wrists behind my back, and secured the cuffs tighter than necessary. As he escorted me down the corridor, I realized that we were heading deeper into the section of the prison I had only heard whispers about. We were going to the prison cells that were reserved for inmates who required “special monitoring,” which was a polite phrase for those who were either too dangerous or too i

    •GISELLE•“Elle,” he whispered. "You don't have to forgive me now, but please don't send me away. I want to be here today. I want to be here with you." My heart raced. I hated that he could still do this to me. I hated that my body remembered him even when my mind screamed warnings.“I don’t want to hurt anymore, Noah,” I admitted softly.“You won’t,” he answered. "I never want to see you hurt because of me." I searched his face for deception, for manipulation, for even a flicker of the old Noah who thought he could bend the world to his will. But I wasn't even sure if I'd be able to recognize him. He stood up and leaned closer. We stood close enough that I could feel his warmth through the thin fabric of my shirt. My breath grew uneven, and I was painfully aware of every inch of space between us."I am so sorry for everything I did wrong to you," he muttered. "I never meant to hurt you." My chest tightened.For years, I had imagined this moment differently. I imagined screaming

    •ASHLEY•When we came back from visiting Donald, I decided to go out for dinner and celebrate my newfound freedom. Marissa had wanted to come, but she had a night shift. The others were busy too. So I went alone.Which, for the first time in a long time, didn’t feel lonely.I was wearing a simple black dress and left my hair down. I even put on lipstick, but not for anyone. But because I wanted to feel cute. I ordered pasta and waited patiently for my food while scrolling on my phone. Giselle had checked on me earlier, and I told her I'd be home in two hours. But when I lifted my eyes to look at the view near the window, I noticed him. Not because he was staring at me, but because he was glaring at the woman sitting across from him as if he was bored. She was talking loudly. Her hands moved dramatically as she listed what sounded like a detailed summary of her ex-boyfriend’s failures and their silly fights. The man across from her looked like someone being held hostage by polite

    •ASHLEY•For the past two weeks before Donald’s final sentencing, I searched through all social media platforms to find Donald’s victims. When I found them, I explained that I didn't mean to open old wounds, but I wanted them to get closure and know that they didn't need to hide their pain away anymore. I knew that wherever they were, their lives were ruined and they couldn't be happy without feeling as if Donald would return and ruin everything again. He probably threatened and tortured them daily as he did with me.The first woman who replied was named Marissa. Her message came in at 2:14 a.m.“I watched the sentencing,” she wrote. “I thought I was crazy for years. He did the same thing to me.”After Marissa, there was Talia. She almost hung up when I called her. She said she didn't trust me, and thought I was working with Donald to trick her. “I don’t want my name in anything,” she told me almost immediately when we started talking.“It won’t be,” I told her. “I just want you t

    •GISELLE•"Mommy!" The kids called from the hallway while Noah’s lips were entangled with mine. My heart raced as I pulled away from him and cleared my throat. I didn't even look at him as I rushed to the twins. They were probably exhausted and needed to sleep. "Come on, my little minions," I giggled as I took their hands and led them to their bedroom. I read them a little story before they fell asleep. My heart was at peace knowing that the twins were under my roof and sleeping on their beds. I stood against the doorframe and watched their chest rising and falling peacefully. It was only at that moment that I realized Adrian looked oddly identical to Noah’s great-great-grandfather. The resemblance was uncanny and it almost baffled me because I had never noticed it before. I always thought his looks leaned more toward Noah's than mine.Noah waited for me in the hallway, and when I finally stepped out and closed the bedroom door gently behind me, our eyes met in the dim light.“T

    •NOAH•"Daddy, is Mommy okay?" Aurora asked when I returned with them from kindergarten. They hadn't seen their mother for two days and I understood their confusion, but I didn't want to risk anything anymore. I didn't want to lose the kids as well after losing my mother and brother in a single month. They were both arrested, which made me feel as if I were utterly alone in the world. "Your mother is fine, Aurora," I answered as I strapped them in their car seats. "But she needs time to say goodbye to Uncle Connor." "I miss her," Adrian chimed in, sighing. "Is she mad at me for jumping into the pool? She said I shouldn't." I stopped moving and sighed. I hated that it seemed as if I were keeping them from their mother, when all I wanted was to keep them safe. “No, buddy,” I replied. “Mommy isn’t mad at you. She loves you more than anything in the whole world.”"She should've called then," he pouted."Well, what do you say we bring Mommy lunch?" “Yes!” Aurora squealed. “Can we br
