SHAWN

“Why didn’t you listen to your grandfather?” My mother asked as soon as I took my seat.

I shrugged, refusing to look at her. I looked instead at my grandfather.

His face was a blank mask of stone as he watched the podium where Silas was speaking in low tones with one of the moderators, but his knuckles were white where he grasped and released his staff.

He was angry—a quiet, vibrating fury that I could feel in the air between us.

But did it matter? Elara had forgiven me. The Vikings wo

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   So, this is love?

    ELARAMy heart felt impossibly, weightlessly light.A permanent smile had taken up residence on my lips since morning, helpless and wide, and every single time I attempted to drag my focus back to the corporate files spread open across my desk, my eyes betrayed me. They drifted—inevitably, shamelessly—back to the objects cluttering my workspace like a small, intimate exhibition.The heavy car keys first. Midnight-black, engraved with a custom crest, resting against the polished wood like something out of a dream I hadn't dared to have yet. Then the flowers—lilies and orchids bundled together in a lavish arrangement, their fragrance so rich and sweet it had been softening the air in my office all morning. Beside them sat an exquisite gourmet lunch that had been hand-delivered less than fifteen minutes ago, still warm. And anchoring the entire scene, right at the corner of my desk, a plush, round-bellied teddy bear, cream-colored and soft, with a love letter looped around its neck on

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   No time left!

    SHAWNI stepped out of the bathroom, steam curling at my heels, and immediately checked the time on the guest room wall clock.10:00 AM.I frowned, a sharp line cutting into my brow. Shouldn’t the old man be at the headquarters today? It was a Thursday—a prime business day. He should be locked in a boardroom, desperately trying to keep the Linday empire afloat or orchestrating ways to handle the fallout from Elara’s sudden ascension. Or… had he been completely sacked from his positions too?I shuddered at the dark thought, a cold sweat breaking out on the back of my neck. I desperately hoped not. If the old man fell, the hefty weekly allowance he consistently transferred into my private bank account would vanish with him. As a matter of fact, the wheels in my mind started turning with a sudden, electric velocity—I might actually need to use that money today after all.The realization amped my system, injecting a rush of adrenaline into my veins that made me hurry through my dressin

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Depressed

    SHAWNThe burning sting of the cheap whiskey coated my throat, but I barely felt it anymore. I tilted the bottle back, draining the last few drops before carelessly tossing it across the floor. It rolled lazily until it clinked against a growing mountain of green glass and empty liquor cartons strewn across the rug.The bedroom looked entirely like a wasteland, a chaotic mess of discarded clothes, stale takeout boxes, and heavy dust. It was very much stinking, a suffocating mixture of sour alcohol and unwashed linens, but I hadn't brought myself to care even a bit. For three solid weeks, I had stubbornly refused to open my door to let the maids in to clean the space—except to bring me drinks, or to let my nagging family witness my decay. I just couldn't move. The world outside was moving forward at a terrifying pace, but inside this dark square, time had completely stopped dead.I had even stopped Toby from helping me a week after that shameful engagement party. I had violently thro

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Delete that post!

    MIRANDAI stared at my father in shock.Grovel? Beg?No. No. Not my father. Not the great Senator Mark Davis.Not the man people bowed to the moment he entered a room. Not the man whose name alone made ministers straighten their backs.He couldn't possibly mean—But then I looked into his face again. And something in me cracked.My father looked at me with bitter hatred, as though I were not his daughter at all but a problem he had been forced to endure.“You better kneel before Elara and beg for forgiveness,” he said coldly, every word cutting deeper than the last. “And if I lose this election because of you?”His voice shifted—lower now. Terrifyingly calm.“I swear to God, Miranda, I will spend the rest of my life reminding you exactly who destroyed this family.”The silence that followed was suffocating.And suddenly, for the first time since this nightmare began, my rage weakened.Because standing before me was no longer the powerful father I had always known.He wasn't invincible

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Blind

    MIRANDAA shattered glass perfume bottle exploded against the wall, raining sharp shards and expensive floral liquid down onto my marble floor.I screamed—a raw, ugly screech that tore through my throat—as I violently swept my arm across the vanity table, sending makeup palettes, luxury jewelry boxes, and designer mirrors crashing into a chaotic heap. Powders burst everywhere. Lipsticks rolled across the floor. A crystal jewelry organizer shattered beneath my bare feet, but I didn't even feel the sting.I was ugly crying, my face entirely twisted with a monstrous, suffocating rage. Thick black mascara and heavy foundation ran in dark, messy streaks down my cheeks as I violently kicked an upholstered ottoman.“I will burn them to the ground!” I shrieked into the empty room, threatening fire and brimstone on Elara, on Killian, and on their arrogant families.“I will make every single one of them pay for this!”My voice cracked so badly that the last words came out broken and hoarse.Su

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Restless

    KILLIANI was so fucking restless.Sitting rigidly in the spacious leather backseat of the luxury sedan with my parents, I subtly shifted my weight, my muscles locking up as I carefully placed my hands directly over my crotch to hide the painfully visible growth straining against the fabric of my tailored trousers. I tightly held back a heavy, frustrated sigh when the low, distinct sound of my mother snickering softly with my father cut through the quiet interior of the vehicle.I silently cussed myself a thousand times over for not taking my own personal sports car for a drive tonight. But after leaving Elara’s residential wing, I had been so completely, deeply trapped inside my own head that I hadn't even thought to protest when my mother had playfully grabbed my arm like I was a blushing bride and walked me directly into the family car.My mind now was entirely, violently consumed by the image of Elara. More specifically, the raw, undeniable yearning I had seen pooling in her beau

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Board Meeting II

    ELARAThe boardroom of the Lindays company was a miniature version of the one in my father’s company, but I was not here to make comparisons but to dish back what I’ve been given. The look on Shawn’s face… there was a time I would have given anything to have him look at me like that, but now I fin

    SHAWN“If anything happens to Elara, just know that you will lose your position in the company! Every single share…!”Grandfather’s voice thundered across the hospital room, heavy with an authority that usually made my blood run cold. But I didn't look at him. Instead, I rolled my eyes discreetly,

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Death

    ELARAI was drowning.I fought the water with every ounce of strength I had left, but I was fighting the panic too. The trauma dragged me under like a physical weight—the jagged memory of the first time I had met Shawn. He had saved me then, a nerdy girl being tormented by bullies who thought it w

  • Too Late To Want Me Back, Ex-Husband!   Left For Dead

    ELARAI’m not a mean girl by nature, I promise, but seeing the look of pure, startled shock on Miranda’s face at the insult made something inside me purr. “What is the meaning of that, Elara? How can you say such a thing to your best friend? What is wrong with you?” Shawn shouted, his voice boomin
