Cornell Mercer

The sound was so sharp and sudden that I flinched. All the tension I had been swallowing since morning rose straight to my throat. I glanced at the screen, hoping it'd be my husband or his subordinates… Detroit. A rush of relief punched the air out of my lungs. My heart slammed painfully against my ribs. I answered the call so fast I nearly dropped the phone. “Where have you been?” I yelled the second the call connected. “I have been calling you since morning. Your people too. None of you picked up. Do you know how worried I was? I thought something happened to you. Why weren’t you reachable?” There was a short pause before his deep voice came through, cool and unshaken as always. “We were busy.” Busy. Always busy. Well, I knew they'd be busy but I still couldn't help getting angry. Not after his mother chastised me earlier for not stopping him from taking this route. As if she didn't know how stubborn her son could be. “What are you doing?” his voice cut through my though

He Doesn't Play Children's Games

Cornell Mercer~ “Boss, Detroit wiped out our allies. Even the fifth branch of his family wasn't spared,” the right-hand reported as they walked through the underground corridor toward the garage. Cornell slipped his hands into his pocket, saying; “I didn't expect them to live this long. I was beginning to feel bored.” The guards ahead opened his car door. Cornell lowered himself into the backseat, heavy and unhurried, like a king claiming a throne. Inside the car, the right-hand man climbed into the front passenger seat and passed him a tablet. “He has stationed his men around all Mercer properties in the city. He also sent drones over the estate. And he is laying siege on the company.” Cornell lifted the tablet with the same interest one might give a napkin. On the screen, CCTV footage showed figures in different locations, dressed in tactical black, sneaking around his buildings, scaling walls, planting surveillance, trying to be shadows. Cornell’s lip curled slightly

A Terrible Misunderstanding

Julia~ Adele looked stunned for a moment, confused by whatever Julia was blabbering about. Roman was equally shocked, “What are you talking about, Julia?” He thought she'd changed. How could she shift the blame of her actions to the same person who saved her? Julia ignored Roman. She gripped the blanket with trembling fingers. Her eyes glistened with fever and frustration. “If you had not shown up at the orphanage back then, none of this would have happened,” she said. Her voice cracked, but she pushed on. “Your presence ruined everything. You were carefully nursed by Matron Natalie and Director Maggie, while the rest of us had to share matron!” Adele gasped. She seemed to grasp now that Julia was one of the children they grew up together at the orphanage. However, she couldn't tell which of the kids Julia was. After all, age wasn't close to any of them. The only kid Adele remembered was Meera, and that was because the little witch was peculiar – Meera was fat, ugly, and ha

Giving Ethan Back

Julia~ “Don't you dare lie your way out of it!” she screamed. Her voice scraped like broken glass. “You don't think that I would start remembering things now? You think you can twist everything like you always do and come out clean again?” Adele blinked once. Just once. Her expression looked almost bored, like Julia’s outburst was nothing more than a child kicking at a locked door. “Very well. It is not my responsibility to correct any misunderstandings you created for yourself anyway,” Adele continued. Her tone was calm enough to slice through Julia’s hysteria. “I will not carry that weight for you. If you want to unburden your soul, you know your way to the orphanage.” Julia opened her mouth to snap back but Adele didn't give her that chance. “I didn't save you from Ryan because I was feeling magnanimous, Julia. I did that so you could do something good for your child that's under my care, for once.” I paused to let it sink in. The room froze. Julia’s breath caught in her t

Blaming Anything But Herself

Julia gasped in relief. “Thank you… thank you, Adele, thank you…” Adele lifted one finger. “On one condition.” Julia looked up, hope trembling inside her eyes. “You will tell the world everything.” Julia froze. “Wh–what…?” Adele continued before she could speak further. “You will tell the truth. You will tell them how you and Ryan switched my daughter for yours. How you sold my daughter. How you let me raise your son while mine was left in the orphanage, where her father found her. You will tell them how you and Ryan fed me lies, used and manipulated me.” Julia’s lips trembled uncontrollably. “Adele… if I do that… I will be arrested. My life will be over!” “We don't know that… yet.” Adele replied. Julia shook her head, choking on fear. “I cannot… Adele… I cannot go to jail. I cannot be locked up. I cannot…” “And yet you had no trouble sentencing my daughter to that very fate,” Adele replied. “You had no trouble deciding that her life was worthless as long as your

The Imposter

Adele~Arriving at the resort, I wasn’t prepared for what welcomed me.Detroit.He was standing by the window with his back to me. Broad shoulders. Hands clasped behind him. The familiar sight tugged something deep inside my chest.Instantly, my heart melted. Every ounce of stress I had been dragging behind me simply dissolved. Before I even thought about it, my legs moved on their own. I rushed toward him, pressed myself against his back, and wrapped my arms around him tightly.“I’m glad you’re fine. I’m glad you’re fine,” I whispered over and over. My voice shook a little.At first, his muscles tensed. He stilled for a moment. Then turned slowly and hugged me back.But he said nothing.My brows creased slightly. Silence wasn’t abnormal for Detroit, a man with few words, yet the way he held me didn’t feel right. I just couldn't explain it better, but his hold didn't feel right. And when I hugged him… the bone structure felt off. The frame was almost identical, but Detroit’s body ha

Cornell’s Plans

Cornell Mercer~“Boss, we just got a report, Detroit is on his way to Greenville. He left the Capital in a fit of rage.”Cornell blew out a cloud of smoke. The cigarette dangled lazily between his fingers as he leaned back in his office chair. His men stood frozen around the desk, waiting for his reaction like it would determine whether they lived to see sunset.“His wife caught the imposter so soon,” Cornell said slowly, tasting the words on his tongue. “Seems No. 3 isn't good enough.”His lips pulled into a crooked smile, nothing warm, nothing human. “I was starting to worry that this game won't be fun.”The man who brought the report shifted uneasily. “Should I make the call to save him before Detroit gets there, sir?”“Save him?” he chuckled unamused. “Who will lead the team…” Cornell turned his head slowly, eyes half-lidded with boredom, “…you?”The man’s throat bobbed. He shook his head immediately.Cornell smirked. “That is what I thought.”There had never been anyone in histor

Tell Me What I Don't Know

Detroit~He sat cross-legged in his wife’s office, his posture relaxed but his presence filled every corner like smoke from a wildfire.The doppelganger knelt on the floor before him, wrists tied behind his back, head bowed so low his forehead nearly touched the tiles.The silence in the room was suffocating. Earlier, the doppelganger was acting touch and mysterious because he thought that their base in Greenville would swoop in and save him before Detroit arrived, but to his utter dismay, they didn't. Even his nano earpiece has been disconnected. Meaning – he'd been abandoned. Adele stood beside Maxwell, her arms crossed neatly against her chest. Her face was calm but worried. He hated it. He despised whatever disturbed her peace. He loathed this doppelganger in front of him for it and it stirred something wicked inside him.His gaze drifted back to the copy kneeling pathetically on the floor. Same face. Same jawline. Same eyes. Same height. Same build. Yet looked pathetically

You're Too Kind

Adele~“It keeps getting worse.” I mumbled, biting my lip, eyes on the window of his car, watching the city speed past. “Everything keeps getting worse. Today it's your clones. Tomorrow what would it be, your death?”Detroit didn’t answer. I felt his gaze on the side of my face, heavy, patient, almost too calm for the thoughts clawing at my skull. I refused to look at him. If I did, I would crumble.I wasn’t annoyed at him. Never him.I was tired. Tired of people clawing at him. Tired of him carrying battles he never asked for. Tired of being a wife who should bring him peace but instead brings him more things to protect.And now this. Clones. Copies. People walking around with his face like it was something they could steal and wear.A small, bitter laugh escaped me. “It was already bad enough that I hardly saw you… hardly spent time with you, especially after our marriage. But now I need to worry about kissing the wrong husband.” My throat tightened. “What would have happened if tha

Adele's Sacrifice

Adele~The last thing I remembered was warmth.I remembered dozing off in the car. I remembered my husband's gentle voice, the one reserved for only me, filling my head, telling me to sleep. That he wouldn't leave me alone. I felt the moment the car arrived at our destination – his villa in the woods. I felt the moment he lifted me into his arms and carried me all the way to his bedroom and laid me on the bed. I was tired, but not too tired to feel him changing my clothes, brushing his lips on my forehead, then somewhere near my ear as he whispered something soft that my sleepy brain refused to record.Whatever it was, it was comforting.And then…Then there was this.The uncomfortable heat in the air slapped me awake first.Then the smell.Oil. Steam. Hot enough to melt my skin.It took my foggy brain a couple seconds to catch up to the fact that I was… hanging. Literally hanging.When my eyes finally cleared, I realized I wasn’t just suspended.I was upside down.Above a massive p
