CATHERINE

My hands worked mechanically , stirring the batter but my mind was in a thousand different places. For one, T. That was the only thing I could think of for the past month. His silence alone was enough to make me nervous. There was no way he would just vanish into thin air, not him. He didn’t strike me as the type to give up easily, and his obsession with Ronald? That couldn’t just go away. Instead it festers, it grows and waits for the right moment to pounce. And I had a dreadful fee

  • Your dad is mine   CHAPTER 113

    CATHERINE I must have forgotten how to breathe, or the air was too thick. Either way, my lungs stopped working, my ears rang, drowning out everything.A muffled sound echoed from above me.My head felt heavy, but I looked up anyway. His lips were moving, talking? No. His brows were knotted, his eyes wide , fear seeping out. The veins in his neck were bulging. Shouting.My gaze flickered to the ground. I was closer to it than it should have been. When did my knees give out?My grandmother’s words refused to stop replaying in my head.Your father isn’t dead.The cold that settled in my bones wasn’t from the harsh crashing of waves or the fact that we were close to the sea. It was from the realization that the worst of them all was still here… lurking in the shadows.A hand clamped down hard on my shoulder.I turned to meet Marcus’s wild eyes dragging over me like he was searching for injuries. His voice broke through the ringing this time, barely. “Catherine,” he barked, shaking me g

    CATHERINE “I take it your martyr stunt didn’t work out as well as you thought it would.”I shuffled on my feet, pushing down that feeling that tried so hard to crawl back up. The look in Marcus’s eyes was plain and simple… disappointment. He had every right to.I swallowed heavily, taking a step forward.His gaze faltered, just for half a second before hardening.“Why are you here, Cath?” He said evenly, even as his fingers dug into his arms.“I’m sorry,” I whispered, my voice muffled by the steady sound of waves crashing into each other. Cold seeped into my bones but the weight in my chest thawed it out. The docks were practically empty, save for the security guard staring us down from the end of the boat. I pretended not to notice.His scoff was lost in the wind as he tilted his head heavenward. “I’ve got crates to offload, Cath.”“Marcus-“He snapped his head back to me, eyes narrowing. “No. You don’t get to run into a fucking death trap even when I begged you not to and now whe

    RONALD“Found your little friend.” The man said, his dark gaze flicking to Frankie.For a moment I was certain I was hallucinating. Frankie had been halfway across the country, setting off his own plans against the threat we both faced.Now he was here. Bruised and barely conscious. His once pristine suit was jagged, soaked in crimson, his silver rings stained with blood. The sight of him reduced to something so fragile felt… wrong. Frankie was always untouchable. Until now.“Frankie?” Mason breathed. The disbelief in his voice only sharpened. “Well… that’s unexpected.”Frankie’s unfocused eyes blinked slowly as he struggled to lift his head. “Ronald…” he rasped. “You-.”A slow clap echoed through the chamber, cutting off whatever he was about to say.“Touching,” the man before us drawled, his tone laced with mock amusement. “Truly. Loyalty is such a rare commodity these days.”My gaze hardened on him. “You dragged him into this to make a point?” I asked coldly.His lips curved into

    RONALDMason glanced over at me from the hood of the car, his brows furrowed.Me, on the other hand, was slightly confused. Talk.We just stormed into their base, with a hostage who was now dead and they wanted to talk? Why not just kill us?I didn’t let the thought linger.The fact was that we were probably surrounded on all sides. If they wanted to kill us, they would have before we even knew what was coming. And we didn’t have the luxury of declining.I pushed an exhale through my nose and stood slowly. Mason hesitated for half a second before following closely.My eyes scanned the empty road, the shadowed trees. They had gone silent again. Mason and I exchanged a glance.“So,” Mason said tightly. “We just going to wait to get slaughtered? I kind of like my head on my shoulders.”I scowled, leaning on the hood of the car. “Got a better idea?”He opened his mouth. Then shut it. Exactly.The next minute, the low hum of an engine steadily approached us, the headlights cutting through

  • Your dad is mine   CHAPTER 109

    RONALDThe low hum of the engine was the only sound that buzzed through the silence, vibrating through the car like a warning.My eyes stayed fixed on the metal door to the safe house, jaw ticking with restraint. Catherine was going to hate me. She already did. But it didn’t matter because she was safe… away from the madness that was about to unfold.That was enough.At least that was what I told myself. It didn’t stop my chest from tightening, a weight that I didn’t want to acknowledge pressing against my chest, making it almost impossible to breathe. I ignored it too.My phone buzzed in my pocket.I ignored.I already knew who it was. Frankie. He’d been calling nonstop for over a week… demanding updates, sending his men to lurk in the shadows, trying to find answers they weren’t ready for. He was restless. Restless Frankie was dangerous, but useful. His impatience worked in my favor.Another vibration rolled through me. Another ignored call.A low groan cut through the haze.My gaz

  • Your dad is mine   CHAPTER 108

    CATHERINEThe air went silent, no one spoke, no one moved.Or maybe they did. I couldn’t tell over the ringing in my ears, over the ice that spreading through my veins like poison.T’s words were on repeat, playing over and over like a broken record in my mind.Ellie was never in danger?She never was in danger.No. That was impossible. It had to be. “You’re lying.” I muttered under my breath.Even my voice had betrayed me, cracking at the end. I stepped forward anyway, ignoring the way Ronald stiffened or how Mason’s attention sharpened. Like both were unsure of what I was about to do.“What do you gain from this?” I demanded. “And don’t insult me by saying you were forced into it. You look like you enjoyed every second.”My voice dropped.“Picking into peoples lives. Turning them in one another… planting deceit, playing people like they’re-““But I was just the spark,” T cut in smoothly. “You lit the fire yourself.”My pulse stuttered. My vision swam with rage.His eyes flicked to

    CATHERINEMy grip on the steering wheel tightened until the skin on my knuckles ached and ashened. My heart was in my throat, threatening to spill over, a bead of sweat hanging low on my face, the salty smell mixed with adrenaline invading my senses.My mind was a blur as I sped through the streets

    RONALD I didn’t know how many days had gone by.My footsteps echoed against the marble floor, my house feeling emptier than usual. To say I was surprised was an understatement. The election didn’t go as planned, catapulting me ten steps back.My jaw locked as the ugly, bitter taste threatened to c

But luckily, the elections took up so much space I didn’t even have time to take a breath. I was grateful for the distraction and now, standing in front of a

    CATHERINEFor a moment my mind went blank. I’d forgotten my hysteric call to Ronald. He’d listened to every word, of course he did. My brain scrambled for an answer.“The letters.” I said way too quickly before taking a break. “You know ever since things like that have been happening I’ve just fel
