Lucia.I stayed frozen behind the door, my heart hammering as I heard their voices in the living room. Hunter had told me to stay upstairs, and yet, I couldn’t resist. I needed to know. I needed to hear.Christian and Hunter’s voices came at short intervals, and though I could barely pick out what they were saying, one name had stood out. Hailey Young. Pressing myself against the cold metal of the door, my curiosity had turned into panic knowing the truth was burning just out of reach. Then, I heard footsteps and before I could process it, the door flung open right in my face.“Lucia,” Christian’s voice boomed suddenly, stopping me cold. “What are you doing here?”I froze, my eyes widening. “I… I was just… getting some water,” I stammered, forcing the excuse.“Water?” he repeated, narrowing his eyes. “Did you hear anything?”I shook my head quickly. “No! I… I didn’t hear anything!”Christian’s eyes pierced me. “Don’t lie. Your ears aren’t deaf, are they?”“I didn’t,” I whispered, voi

The Call

Lucia.I didn’t go inside immediately. I couldn’t.I parked the car in the driveway, turned off the engine, and just sat there, staring at the dashboard like it had answers hidden in the glowing lights.My father had refused to see me.My father, who once used to drop everything if I so much as coughed, had refused to look me in the eye. Refused to talk, refused to explain, refused… me.I dropped my head into my hands in frustration. “Why? Why would he refuse?” I whispered into the empty car, my voice tense and shaking.“Dad, what are you hiding? What are you so scared of?”My mind was a blur- Hailey Young. Christian. Hunter. Fifty days. My father shutting me out. How far I'd gone with Hunter and what Christian would do if he found out.Everything was swirling.I leaned back, wiping my face. “What if he is guilty?” The thought felt like betrayal. “What if… my father actually did something? Or… what if he’s hiding something worse?”My chest tightened, the confusion clawing at me. Becau

What Were You Thinking

Hunter.“Who were you talking to?” I asked the moment Lucia opened the door, leaning down so we were eye-level.She blinked fast, her breath uneven. “No one. I was just–”“Lucia.” I didn’t raise my voice. I didn’t have to.Her shoulders tensed.“I heard you,” I said quietly. “You were on the phone. Who was it?”She looked everywhere but at me. “It was nothing important. It was just–”“Lucia.” My tone was sharp now, almost intimidating and her eyes snapped back to mine. “Tell me.”She swallowed. “I wasn’t doing anything wrong.”“That’s not what I asked.”She shut her eyes briefly. “You’re overreacting.”“Try again.”“Hunter–”“Lucia.” I stepped back, opened her car door wider, and gestured. “Get out.”She hesitated, then slowly stepped out as I shut the door behind her.“Who,” I repeated, “were you talking to?”She crossed her arms tightly. “Why do you care so much?”“Because you’re making calls from the driveway like you’re hiding something.”“I wasn’t hiding.”“Then tell me,” I said,

No Restraint

Hunter.“Hunter…” She repeated, her voice breaking, raw and needy, and then her lips crashed into mine like she couldn’t wait another second.I froze, my hands still locked around her waist. “Lucia, wait... stop.”She didn’t stop, instead she kissed me harder, twisting her fingers in my shirt as she pulled me closer into her.“I don’t want to talk,” she whispered against my mouth. “I don’t want to think. I just want you, Hunter, only you.”“Lucia,” I tried again, pulling back an inch. My voice was rough, strained against the last bit if resolve I had left. “You said this couldn’t happen again. You said–”“I don’t care about what I said hours ago,” she cut in, her eyes heavy with need, lust and fire. “I’m tired of being scared. I’m tired of waiting. I just want you right now.”She kissed me again, softer this time like she was pleading. Her tongue brushed against mine and every single wall I’d built crumbled.“Fuck it,” I growled.I kissed her back like I’d been starving for weeks; dee

Teaming Up

Lucia.I obeyed instantly, slapping my palms against the wall and pushing my ass back into him.Hunter leaned in, his lips at my ear and his entire body pressed so hard behind me I could feel his heartbeat through my back. "You want more?"I couldn’t speak. My throat was raw from moaning. I just pushed my hips back, grinding against the thick length of him and answering the only way I could.He let out a dark, hungry sound. “That’s a yes.”I heard the sound of his zipper, then rustle of denim, then the quick tear of foil. My pulse was roaring in my ears.“Condom?” I managed, voice shaking.“Already on,” he muttered. Then he was right there, hot and impossibly hard, nudging at my entrance.He pushed in slowly, torturously slow and I felt every single inch of him stretching me, filling me, claiming me.I cried out, my forehead dropping against the cold plaster of the walls. “Hunter, oh my God...”“Easy, baby,” he whispered, one hand stroking my hip like he was calming a spooked baby, th

Interrupted

Lucia.I stared at him, my heart beat rising and my body still warm from everything between us, but my mind suddenly sharp as I tried to process his words- 'I’m done keeping things from you… starting right now, we’re a team.'I swallowed hard lump down my throat before I spoke. “Hunter…w-what are you saying? You'll tell me everything? Do you really mean that?”He didn’t hesitate not even for a second. “Yeah,” he replied steadily. “Every word. I’m not leaving you in the dark anymore.”I blinked at him, trying to steady myself. “You’re serious? You want us to work together? Against Christian?”He nodded slowly. “It’s the only way anything changes and the only I can keep you safe. I know you won't stay put of it but you can’t fight him alone and I can’t protect you if I don’t tell you everything I know.”My heart thudded hard. “So… what do you want from me? What exactly are you asking?”“I’m asking if you're willing to team with me,” he said, his voice soft now, “if you’re down to do th

Not A Fool

Lucia.Adjusting the sleeves of my blouse, I stepped into the lobby of the hospital, the sterile smell of disinfectant mixed with the faint aroma of flowers from a vase on the counter making my stomach uneasy.“Good morning, Mrs Kemper,” a cheerful voice called just as I arrived at the waiting room.I looked up to see Doctor Singh approaching, hands in his pockets, smiling with ease. His presence was warm and surprisingly comforting.“Good morning,” I said, forcing a polite smile.“Rose called earlier, told me you’d be coming in today. She wanted to make sure you were doing well. Please, come in.”I followed him into the office he gestured to, sitting down slowly with my nerves fluttering in my chest.“Lucia, I want you to feel comfortable here,” he said, leaning slightly closer and lowering his voice. “Nothing you say will leave this room. We have a doctor-patient confidentiality clause so Rose isn’t going to know anything unless you want her to. This is for you. Not her, not anyone

Documentary On The Tv

Hunter.'Lucia, you okay? You've been out for a while now.'I hit send and turned my phone face down on the table in the sitting room, pretending to watch the muted documentary showing on the TV. Grandma Rose sat far opposite me, her perfectly permed dark hair with golden streaks gleaming from the glow of the TV. She was eating a bowl of salad while I kept glancing at my phone every five seconds. Lucia still hadn’t replied to any of the texts I'd sent in the last thirty minutes.I picked up my phone again. 'Where are you now? Are you done? Everything okay?'Nothing.Rose finally broke the silence. “You’re restless Hunter, what is it?” she asked without looking up.“I’m fine,” I muttered, uninterested in engaging in a conversation with my grandmother.“You’re tapping your foot like one who isn't fine.”I sighed. “I’m fine, grandma.”I wasn't exactly a big fan of my grandma, well to be fair, I wasn't a fan of anyone affiliated with my father, besides Lucia of course.The front door ope

Tensions At Home

Hunter.Lucia stepped fully into the living room, her bag hanging loosely from her shoulder.Rose didn’t waste a second. “Lucia, how was the appointment? What did Doctor Singh say? Is everything alright with.. you?”Lucia shifted uncomfortably, letting her green eyes flick briefly to Christian before returning her gaze to Rose. That brief glance to Christian said more than words could, something was wrong.“I just did some tests,” she said evenly, running a hand through her long hair. “Doctor Singh will get back to me with the results later but everything’s fine for now.”Rose’s eyebrows shot up, but before she could say anything else, Christian leaned forward in his chair, his hand gripping the armrest.“Fine?” he asked, cutting in sharply. “Then what took you so long, and why are you coming home so late?”Lucia didn’t flinch. She smiled faintly, that calm, almost teasing expression she always pulled when she wanted to defuse tension. “I bumped into someone actually, or should I say,

Not Alone Anymore

Lucia."Hey," he said softly, like he wasn't sure if he was to speak any louder.I had opened the door before I could fully process the fact that I was still in my bathrobe, my hair falling over my shoulders in messy wet waves.“Hey,” I whispered back, blinking.His eyes flicked to the room behind me, then back to my face. “Can I… come in? Just for a minute?”I hesitated for a second, then stepped back and pulled the door wider.“Yeah,” I said quietly. “Come in.”He walked in, shutting the door behind him with a slow click. His eyes flicked around the room for a second like he was checking if I was actually okay, before landing on me again.“You sure you’re okay?” he asked.I nodded immediately. “Yeah, I’m fine.”He didn’t believe me. It was obvious from the way he tilted his head slightly. “Lucia… that nod was not convincing.”I sighed and walked past him to sit at the edge of the bed. “I just... I'm not sure I want to talk about anything right now.”“Okay,” he said gently. “If you
