The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) The Initiation
MARY'S POV:"That's him, isn't it?" The woman with braids leaned closer, her breath warm against my ear. "That's who paid for this little vacation. Your own husband. What did you do to make him so mad, sweetheart?""Nothing," I said. "I didn't do anything.""Everyone does something.""He's the one—" I stopped myself. I wasn't going to tell them about Vesper. I wasn't going to tell them about the party, about the photos, about the way my husband had looked at another woman like she was the sun. That was mine. That pain was mine, and I wasn't going to share it with strangers who would only use it against me."He's the one what?" the tall one prompted."Nothing.""Doesn't sound like nothing."I pressed my back against the wall and crossed my arms over my chest. "I'm done talking."They didn't like that.The circling stopped. The tall one stepped closer, close enough that I could see the individual hairs in her eyebrows, the small scar above her lip, the yellowing of her teeth when she sm

MARY'S POV:"Rights." She laughed again, and the others joined in. "You don't have rights in here, sweetheart. You have us. And we haven't decided what to do with you yet."My heart was pounding so hard I could feel it in my temples, in my throat, in the tips of my fingers. But I didn't move. I didn't look away. I had learned, years ago, that animals could smell fear. And these women, they were animals."I'm not here to cause trouble," I said. "I just want to sit quietly until my lawyer arrives.""Your lawyer." The woman with braids slid off the bench and walked toward me, her hips swaying in a way that felt performative, mocking. "Listen to her. She thinks she's getting out of here.""The cops put you in here with us for a reason," the tall one said. She was close enough now that I could smell her, cigarettes and sweat and something sour underneath. "Someone wanted you here. Someone paid for you to be here."I shook my head. "That's not—""You think this is an accident?" She gestured
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) Thrown Into the Cell
MARY'S POV:The door slammed shut behind me, and the sound echoed off the concrete walls like a gunshot.I stood in the middle of the cell, my arms wrapped around myself, my eyes adjusting to the dim fluorescent light that flickered overhead. The floor was gray concrete, stained in places I didn't want to look at too closely. The walls were the same, gray, cold, covered in scratches and markings left by people who had been here before me. A metal bench bolted to the wall. A toilet without a seat with a sink that dripped.And the others.There were four of them. Women, but not like any women I had ever been in a room with. They wore matching orange jumpsuits, the jumpsuits they gave to people who had been convicted and not just detained. Their hair was matted, their eyes hard, their bodies covered in tattoos that snaked up their arms and necks like vines.Gang members. I had seen enough news reports to recognize the symbols, the postures, the way they looked at me like I was prey.This
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) Betrayed Behind Bars
MARY'S POV:The officers let me ride in the back with her, on the way to Marilyn's. Elowen didn't cry. She didn't speak. She just held my hand and stared out the window, and I watched her small face in the reflection and wondered if she would ever forgive me for this.Marilyn was waiting on the front porch when we arrived. She took Elowen's hand without a word, without a hug and even without asking any questions. Elowen looked back at me once, her eyes wide and scared, and then she disappeared inside the house.I got back in the police car.The drive to the station was silent.~~~~~~~The interrogation room was cold.Although it wasn't that freezing, but cold enough that I could see my breath when I exhaled. The walls were pale gray, the floor was linoleum, the table was metal and bolted to the ground. A single camera stared down from the corner of the ceiling, its red light blinking.I sat in the chair and waited.Officer Delgado came in first, followed by another officer I hadn't me
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) Mary Vane’s Arrest
MARY'S POV:I tried again but nothing. Again and once again, nothing.His phone was unreachable, or he was ignoring me, or he had turned it off entirely. I didn't know which was worse.I stared at my phone, my thumb hovering over his name, and I felt something cold settle into my stomach. He wasn't coming. He wasn't answering. He was out there somewhere, maybe with her, while I was here trying to protect our daughter from the consequences of his choices.I put the phone down and walked back to the living room.Elowen was still on the couch, still wrapped in the blanket, still staring at the television. But her eyes were glassy, unfocused, and I knew she wasn't really watching."Mommy," she said, her voice small. "Who were those people?""Nobody, baby. Just some people who made a mistake.""Why did they shout at you?"I knelt down in front of her and took her hands. They were cold, even in mine."Because sometimes people believe things that aren't true," I said. "And sometimes they get
The Unwanted Wife's Return (Ex-Husband Wants Me Back) Attacked
MARY'S POV:My hands were shaking on the steering wheel.Elowen was curled up in the passenger seat beside me, her small body pressed against the door, her purple backpack still strapped to her shoulders. She had stopped crying somewhere between the driveway and the corner, but her face was still wet, her eyes still wide, her breath still coming in short, hitching gasps that made my chest ache.I couldn't look at her. If I looked at her, I would fall apart. And I couldn't fall apart. Not yet. Not until we were safe.The car was still in the garage. The garage door was still open. I had made it to the driver's seat, had gotten Elowen inside, had my keys in the ignition—A knock on the window. It was loud and violent. A fist slamming against the glass so hard that the whole car shuddered.I turned my head slowly, my heart pounding somewhere in my throat, and I saw him. A man. Middle-aged, maybe, though it was hard to tell through the distortion of the window and the adrenaline flooding

HANNAH'S POV:I inhaled sharply at the memory, and suddenly my chest tightened painfully. My breathing got faster and more shallow."Hannah?" Maya whispered from across the room, taking a tentative step forward. "Babygirl, it's okay. You're safe now. We're all here with you."But it wasn't okay. Be

"But nothing permanent?" Elijah pressed, his voice cracking with desperate hope. "You're not telling me that she might never wake up, right? That's not what you're saying?"Dr. Mirren leaned forward slightly, his expression earnest and reassuring. "I am telling you," he said steadily, making sure E

3RD POV:"They know you love them," his mother assured him. "But Elijah, you need to focus on getting better for them too, not just for Hannah. Those kids would be absolutely lost without you. They need their father healthy and whole."Seeing his mother's tears, seeing the raw fear in her eyes, bro

ELIJAH'S POV:Every corner reminded me of Hannah. The way she laughed in the kitchen like this one time when she tried to make mashed potatoes and pasta, it was so bad the kids and I couldn’t even pretend for too long. She wasn’t even mad about it because as soon as she ate it she immediately laugh
