Chapter 11: Biohazard

[Alice’s POV]Thomas Miller looked like a Thanksgiving turkey destined for the block. His face was a bloated shade of purple as the tie tightened around his throat; his hands clawed uselessly at the edge of the desk, a pathetic, wet wheeze escaping his lips.“David... listen to me... it’s a misunderstanding... the McCutchens and your family, we —”“McCutchen?” David tasted the name like it was spoiled milk, his lips curling into a lethal smirk. “Since you’re so fond of 'disciplining' relatives for the McCutchens, let’s see how they like it when I pull every cent of funding from that Paramount feature tomorrow. And maybe I’ll give the Labor Board a call — we can have a long chat about the 'quid pro quo' culture at your agency.”Miller’s pupils dilated. It wasn't just fear; it was the look of a man watching his entire life go up in flames. In LA, one word from David Newcombe was enough to send a power agent from a Bel-Air mansion to a canvas shelter on Santa Monica Blvd, overnight.“Get

Chapter 12: The Superhero Mission

[Alice’s POV]The Santa Monica afternoon was thick with unspent heat.I nearly shattered the heavy glass doors of the clinic as I sprinted toward the underground garage. The emergency text from the Medical Center felt like a death sentence playing on a loop in my head: Shock, persistent high fever, abnormal blood counts.“Damn it!” I fumbled with my keys, but my hands were shaking so hard they slipped through my fingers and vanished into the narrow slit of a drainage grate.I was on my knees, clawing at the concrete in a blind panic, when the shriek of high-performance brakes echoed through the empty garage.A matte-black Bugatti pulled up inches from my old Toyota. The window slid down to reveal David’s face — cold, stony, and utterly unreadable. He sat there, his long fingers tapping the steering wheel with that signature "don't-come-near-me" detachment.“Get in,” he said. No questions, just a command.“Mr. Newcombe, I—”“I won’t say it twice.” His eyes tracked my raw, reddened fing

Chapter 13: The Great Divide

Alice’s POVDavid’s presence was suffocating. His predatory eyes were locked on my face, searching for even a flicker of guilt, a crack in my story.His voice was a low rasp, laced with a pathologically stubborn obsession. To a man who was born on the top floor of the world, this doubt was its own kind of masochistic humiliation — he was actually comparing himself to some ‘low-life drifter’ in a female doctor's memories.My heart, which had been hammering against my ribs, suddenly went cold the moment he said the word ‘nobody.’ I found my center.I let out a dry, self-deprecating laugh and looked him dead in the eye — the eyes that made the entire West Coast tremble."Mr. Newcombe, do you honestly think that’s possible?"I took a half-step back. It was the distance between a private jet at Van Nuys and a bus pass for the Metro. Two different worlds, orbiting the same sun but never meant to touch."Almost four years ago, San Francisco had a city-wide blackout. I spent the most chaotic

Chapter 14: The Ghost of San Francisco

[Alice’s POV]I was just pushing through the VIP side exit of the Santa Monica clinic, when a shadow lunged out from the dark. Before I could even react, there was a heavy thud as a man dropped to his knees right in front of my shoes.“Alice! Oh God, I finally found you!”The man’s wail was so loud it made the surrounding medical staff stop and stare. He was brandishing a phone, his face a mess of frantic energy. He was wearing a salt-stained hoodie, his hair was a bird’s nest, and his eyes were rimmed with red. He looked like a man who had spent his life bouncing between halfway houses and cheap bars.“Who are you? You’ve got the wrong person.” I instinctively recoiled, my brow furrowing in immediate disgust.“It’s me — Jason! Four years ago… San Francisco? The night the lights went out!” He suddenly burst into loud, ugly sobs. He reached out to grab my hem but flinched back, acting with a pathetic, groveling humility.“Alice, baby, listen! I didn't ditch you. I went out for coffee a

Chapter 15: The Parasite

[Alice’s POV]I was keen to get home. Camilla had been discharged from hospital to recuperate at home. They had given her an experimental medication that was still in the late trial stages but had proved promising in earlier trials. It seemed to really help. I was also thankful that my babysitter was wonderful with kids, and as a former nurse she was experienced with medications for situations like this.Inside the cramped cabin of my Toyota, Jason wouldn't shut up. He kept sniveling, wiping his nose with his greasy sleeve. “Alice, baby, you have no idea how hard it’s been. Every time I close my eyes, I see your face…”“Shut it, Jason. It was a dark night.” My knuckles were white as I gripped the steering wheel. I didn’t buy a single word coming out of his mouth. But if this guy was Camilla’s only shot at survival, I had to play along until I saw the lab results.The moment I pushed open my apartment door, I saw Camilla sitting on the rug, clutching her Spider-Man plushie. Her big eye

Chapter 16: The Breaking Point

[David’s POV]I sat in the dark, the silence inside the Bugatti becoming almost a physical weight.Outside, the Santa Monica air was a stagnant cocktail of salt spray and exhaust fumes. Under normal circumstances, my skin would crawl just being in a neighborhood like this. I don't do ‘gritty.’ I don't do ‘low-rent.’ And yet, I had been sitting here with the engine killed, for three hours.Time had never marched so slowly, before. Tension was mounting. I nearly snapped the unlit cigar between my fingers.My eyes were glued to a single window on the third floor, glowing with a warm, amber light. Through the thin curtains, I could see two blurred silhouettes moving. One was Alice — the woman who lived in a starch-white coat with eyes as stubborn as flint. The other...The other was that walking biohazard. A piece of human debris that shouldn't have been allowed within a mile of me, let alone her. How could she have let him into her home?"The father. Hah!"I tasted the words, a bitter, m

Chapter 17: Assets and Liabilities

[Alice’s POV]The heat in my cheek was a rhythmic throb — a sickening mix of bruising and stinging humiliation. I leaned against the kitchen counter, listening to Jason rummaging through the guest room, searching for alcohol. I felt like I was sinking into a tarpit with no bottom.Was this the "truth" I had sacrificed everything for?For a one-in-a-million shot at a match for Camilla, I had let a monster into the sanctuary I had built for us.I needed a way out; he had to go! Yet, I badly needed him – in case there was a chance! I realised too late that I had compromised not only my safety, but that of my little girl. Blinded by my all-consuming search for a bone marrow match, I had invited the devil into my home.I hadn't even cared to wipe the blood from the corner of my mouth, as if by not acknowledging the blow, I could pretend my dignity hadn't been torn down and trampled.THUD. THUD. THUD. My apartment door shook.The frantic, heavy pounding on the door was making the walls ratt

Chapter 18: Exclusive Rights

[Alice’s POV]Tuesday morning, Santa Monica Clinic.I stood in front of the vanity mirror, caking on layers of high-coverage concealer. I was desperate to bury the red, angry welt on my left cheek. In the sterile reflection, I looked professional — cold, untouchable — as if the woman who had been cornered and humiliated in that cramped apartment last night, was just a bad dream.But when I pushed open the door to the VIP suite, David was already there.He wasn't wearing his suit jacket today. He was in a crisp black button-down, the sleeves rolled up to just below his elbows, revealing the powerful lines of his forearms. He was hunched over some documents, radiating a chill so intense it felt like he had a ten-foot ‘no-fly zone’ around him."Mr. Newcombe, good morning." I kept my voice strictly business, reaching for my stethoscope without looking up. "Today’s desensitization session will focus on the neural reflex arcs—""Get over here." He didn't look up. His voice was sub-zero.Con

Chapter 19: Doctor’s Orders

[Alice’s POV]Just as the heavy tension between us approached breaking point, the solid oak door to the exam room burst open with a violent thud.“David! I knew you were in here. I’ve called you a dozen times, and your mother said—”Lily stormed in, brandishing a stack of elegant, gold-embossed invitations. But the second she saw us; the words died in her throat.I was pinned against the edge of the exam chair, David’s large frame half-covering mine, his long fingers still pressed firmly around my neck. From Lily’s angle, it looked devastatingly intimate — as if David were lost in a tender moment, with his other hand caressing my face.“What the hell is going on?!” Lily’s voice hit a pitch that could have shattered the crystal glasses at a charity gala.David didn't pull away immediately. Instead, he took his time, giving the bruise on my face one last deliberate stroke before turning around with cold indifference. The irritation etched into his brow was unmistakable — he hated being

Chapter 20: The Setup

[Lily’s POV]I slammed the heavy clinic door behind me, as I charged out. Every strike of my heels on the marble floor felt like a bullet I wanted to put through that wretched woman’s head.“Celibacy?” I hissed, my knuckles whitening as I gripped my handbag. I’ve waited so long for him already. He’s always kept me at arm’s length, even though we’re engaged. But I thought surely, once we were married, he would finally be mine.I was more than eager to soil that pristine body. I wanted to make him beg for it, to worship at the altar of my body, to surrender all his secret desires into my waiting hands. Mine alone.My manicured nails dug deep into my palms. “That pathetic, working-class single mom… how dare she look at me like that!”It was bad enough that she had unrestricted access to his most private anatomy, yet I have always been kept at arm’s length. Even though she was, admittedly, a medical professional just doing her job. Still. It wasn’t right.I detected a change in David’s at
