3RD POV:

THAT SAME EVENING:

While Elijah was debating on whether to cross over the piece of ceiling that was now obstructing his way from going into where Hannah was, knowing the house was burning so fast. Outside, the fire department had arrived as well as Mr Waltson, Lucas, Jacob and Martin.

As soon as they'd found out what Elijah was planning to do, Martin had immediately called his godfather in a panic. Mr. Willow had told them about the two leads they were following, and all three men had

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   A Change of Plan

    MARY'S POV:​Sometimes, I realized I made my daughter's small world way more complicated than it actually was. I kept forgetting how simple and pure young children really are. I forgot that a kind word, a silly surprise, or a single moment of real fun could mean a hundred times more to a kid than all the serious lectures in the world.​But at other times, I made things way too simple in the wrong direction. I was so fixated on raising her the proper way that I had accidentally stripped away her freedom to just be a wild, happy child. I had spent so much time teaching her to be careful, to be quiet, and to always think twice before she said anything out loud.​She was only six years old. She should be allowed to be loud and silly. She should be allowed to laugh until her stomach hurts, run as fast as her legs can carry her, and dream as big as she wants without worrying about the adult world.​I had never cared much about expensive clothes, fancy cars, or big money. I used to believe m

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   The Truth About the Boys

    MARY'S POV:​The question sounded casual enough, but I could hear the real seriousness sitting right underneath his calm voice. He wasn't pushing her, and he wasn't demanding a quick answer. He was just putting the question out there, giving her all the time and space she needed to answer him on her own terms.​I sat stiffly in the passenger seat and held my breath, waiting for her to speak.​My daughter shook her head side to side, but this time she actually said a little bit more than she had the night before. "There are just some noisy, annoying boys in my class," she murmured, looking down at her shoes. "But they never get the better of me anyway."​Marl glanced at her in the rearview mirror and said casually, "You want me to teach you how to fight properly? I know a few really tough guys who could teach you some moves. That way, if any boy ever makes you really upset on the playground, you can just punch him straight in the middle of his nose."​His advice was the complete opposi

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   My Brand-New Daddy

    MARY'S POV:​Then a huge smile broke out across her face, and she ran straight over, grabbing onto my hand with both of hers.​"Mommy, you look so pretty today!" she squealed out loud. "You're totally glowing!"​I dropped down onto one knee right there on the sidewalk, ignoring the dust on my new heels, and pulled her into a big hug. I breathed in her sweet, familiar smell, a mix of wax crayons, playground dust, and her fruit shampoo. "Thank you, my sweet girl. I missed you so much today."​As my daughter walked past a small group of her classmates who had gathered by the flagpole and were pointing at our car, she deliberately held her head up high and puffed out her chest like a little queen. She spoke extra loudly so every single one of them could hear her, giving them a smug little look over her shoulder.​"Mommy, can we please go get big ice cream sundaes today? Just the two of us?"​"Of course we can, baby."​Before she could even take another step, Marl reached down, scooped my

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   All Eyes on Mary

    MARY'S POV:​I opened my mouth to answer him, but the words got completely stuck right in my throat. What had I actually been like back in college? I was hopeful. Naive. Full of big, silly dreams that I eventually let slip through my fingers over the years. I had been the young girl who stayed up until three in the morning studying in the library, who actively debated with her professors in class, and who truly believed she was going to do great things with her life. I had been the girl who hadn't yet learned the hard lesson that the world can be cruel to people who give too much. I had been the girl who thought love was enough to fix any problem, and who believed that if she just worked hard enough every day, everything would work out fine in the end.​I had been so painfully wrong about everything.​Just as the quiet in the car was getting a little too heavy, the big brass school bell rang out across the street, and the heavy black iron gates were pushed wide open. The primary teach

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   The Flashy Red Car

    MARY'S POV: ​I couldn't help but wonder if Alistair had ever really seen this version of me during our marriage. I wondered if he had ever bothered to look past the kitchen apron, the tired eyes, and my flour-covered hands to see the actual woman standing right in front of him. I wondered if he had ever truly known me at all, or if he just wanted a quiet maid to keep his house clean. ​I forced myself to push the thought out of my head. It didn't matter anymore. None of it did. What really mattered was that I was still breathing. I was still standing on my own two feet. I was still fighting for my daughter. ​Marl picked me up thirty minutes later in a ridiculously flashy sports car. ​The car was red. A bright, loud, completely obnoxious shade of red. It was the exact type of car that begged for attention, that made every single person turn their head at the traffic lights, and that made people stop dead in their tracks on the sidewalk just to stare. The red paint gleamed under the

  • The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back)   Mary Reborn

    MARY'S POV:Next, I was taken straight to a high-end hair salon.​The salon was hidden away on a side street, its big front windows frosted over, its interior feeling like a completely different world of soft lights and different colors. The walls were painted a pale cream, the floors were so cleaned until you could see your own reflection, and the air smelled like a mix of lavender and fresh lemons. Soft classical music played low from hidden speakers in the ceiling. The stylist, a older woman with a bit of silver running through her hair and kind eyes, greeted us right at the front door and led me over to a big leather chair that felt more like a throne. The mirrors were framed infact with gold, the long counters were white marble, and the tools were all spotless under the warm overhead lights.​I ended up sitting in that chair for hours.​They washed my hair first, the warm water running over my scalp while the stylist's fingers massaged my head in slow, relaxing circles. I closed
