"Amanda Exposed (Part 1)"Jane's POVI was sitting in Sandra's kitchen, trying to make sense of everything that had happened with Jared and Christian. Sandra made tea and sat across from me, her face full of concern."Jane, I need to tell you something," she said."What now? I don't think I can handle any more bad news.""This is about Amanda.""What about her?""I overheard something yesterday. Something that made me sick."I set down my tea cup. "What did you hear?""Amanda was on the phone outside the Holmes house. I was dropping off some papers for Helen, and I heard her talking in the garden.""Talking to who?""I don't know. But Jane, she was talking about you.""What was she saying?"Sandra looked uncomfortable. "She was talking about getting rid of you. Permanently."My blood went cold. "What do you mean permanently?""She said something about finishing the job. About making sure you disappear for good.""Sandra, are you sure?""I'm positive. I heard her say your name multipl

"Amanda Exposed (Part 2)"Jane's POVI really didn't want to go to another Holmes family dinner, but Christian begged me to come."Grandma Helen specifically asked for you," he said. "She's worried about you after everything that's happened.""I'm tired of pretending we're happily married.""We don't have to pretend. We just have to be there for family.""Even with Amanda there?""Especially with Amanda there.""Why?""Because it's time everyone knew the truth about her."I didn't know what he meant by that, but I agreed to go. I was getting tired of hiding from Amanda and her games.When we arrived at Grandma Helen's house, everyone was already there. Uncle Gideon and Aunt Rose, Alec and Sandra, and unfortunately, Amanda. She was wearing a tight red dress that showed off her growing belly."Jane, dear, you look lovely," Grandma Helen said, giving me a hug."Thank you, Grandma.""How are you feeling? I heard about the troubles you've been having.""I'm okay. Christian's been very help

"Shattered Bonds"Jane's POVI sat in my car outside Jared's apartment building, staring at the steering wheel. My hands were shaking so hard I couldn't put the key in the ignition.Jared was the man who broke into my apartment. The man who grabbed me. The man who made me so scared I couldn't sleep for weeks.And then he came back. He held me while I cried. He took me to the hospital. He made me fall in love with him.I felt sick."Jane?" Sandra knocked on my car window. "Are you okay?"I rolled down the window. "No. I'm not okay.""Can I get in?"I unlocked the passenger door. Sandra got in and looked at my face."Jane, you look like you're in shock.""I am in shock.""Do you want to talk about it?""What is there to talk about? The man I thought loved me is the same man who terrorized me.""I know. I'm so sorry.""Are you? Because you suspected him for weeks and didn't tell me."Sandra was quiet for a moment. "You're right. I should have told you sooner.""Why didn't you?""Because

"Jane's Withdrawal"Jane's POVI hadn't left my apartment in three days. I hadn't answered my phone in three days. I hadn't eaten a real meal in three days.I just sat on my couch in my pajamas, staring at the wall.Every time my phone rang, I looked at the screen to see who it was. Christian had called eighteen times. Jared had called forty-three times. Sandra had called twelve times.I didn't answer any of them.What was the point? Everyone I trusted had lied to me. Everyone I loved had hurt me.My phone buzzed with another text from Jared: "Please let me explain. I love you. Please."I deleted it without reading the whole thing.Then another text from Christian: "Jane, I'm worried about you. Please call me back."I deleted that one too.I pulled a blanket over my head and tried to disappear.But even under the blanket, I could hear someone knocking on my door."Jane! I know you're in there!" Sandra's voice was loud and worried.I didn't answer."Jane, open this door or I'm calling

"Family Confrontations"Christian's POVI was sitting in Grandma Helen's garden, staring at nothing, when she found me. I hadn't slept in two days. I probably looked like hell."Christian, you look terrible," she said, sitting down next to me on the stone bench."Thanks, Grandma. That's exactly what I needed to hear.""When was the last time you ate a real meal?""I don't remember.""When was the last time you went home to your own bed?""I've been staying at Jane's building. In the lobby. Making sure she's safe.""In the lobby?""She won't let me into her apartment.""And you've been sleeping in a lobby for three days?""I've been trying to sleep in a lobby for three days."Grandma Helen was quiet for a moment. "Christian, what's really going on?""What do you mean?""I mean why are you camping outside Jane's apartment building like a homeless person?""Because someone needs to protect her.""From who?""From Crypto Link. From Amanda. From anyone else who wants to hurt her.""And wha
