Chapter 201: His Private Property Reese “What do you mean?” My voice sounded steadier than the rest of me felt. “Which wife are you referring to?”I prayed it wasn’t Sav. The hope was irrational and I knew it, but I held onto it anyway. Somehow the idea of old footage involving Dahlia would have sat differently in my chest than anything involving Savannah. My hands had already gone cold. The headache and everything from the cemetery now had a new layer pressed on top of it. More than anything I wanted this to be a misunderstanding. Maybe it was a distorted thing Ramsey had only half seen and then magnified in his own head.Because if it was real, if my younger brother had actually watched Roman’s wife in a private moment, Roman was going to lose his mind. And that was me keeping things tame. He would set fire to this house with Randall in it. I suddenly understood why Ramsey had broken down earlier.This was bad. Really bad. Roman had always been private to the point of violen

Chapter 203: A Private Video ReeseIt almost sounded like the setup to an expensive, dangerous joke—the kind that ended with the person who laughed the hardest drawing a weapon on the one who had told it.“A private video of Sav and me?” Roman’s voice had lost every trace of the earlier domestic ease. The amusement was gone, replaced by something colder. “What exactly are you talking about, Reese? Is this some sort of—”I didn’t let him finish. I was already at the edge of what the night could take. All of it had weighed me down. More than anything I wanted to be in my own room with my wife instead of sitting in Ramsey’s bedroom holding a flash drive that was about to detonate another wing of this family.“Randall secretly recorded you and Sav in the bathroom after you woke up from the coma,” I said. The words tasted wrong coming out of my mouth. “Roman… Ramsey saw Sav giving you a blowjob. And God knows what else the kid saw before he understood what he was looking at.”There was a

Chapter 205: Ease UpRoman I knew the second I stepped back into the bedroom that Sav would be waiting with questions. She had heard enough of my voice on the call with Reese to know something was wrong. The shift in tone. The request for privacy. She never missed those things.She was sitting up against the headboard when I came in. The twins were finally down in the cot beside the bed. Andrea had fought sleep the longest, the way she always did, but sleep won. As always. Sav’s eyes tracked me the moment the door closed. “Roman. Is everything okay?” The worry was already in her voice. “Why did Reese sound like that? Why did he need to talk to you alone? Did something happen? Is Lizzie alright?”I let out a slow breath and pinched the bridge of my nose as I crossed to her. Her gaze never left me. Searching. The kind of look that made lying feel impossible even when the truth was going to hurt.How was I supposed to say this to her? She was pregnant with my child. There was no way

Chapter 207: Face Down Lizzie “What?” The laugh that left me sounded wrong even to my own ears. It was too bright and came out too quick. It was the kind of sound people made when their heart was trying to climb out of their chest and they needed somewhere safe to put it. “No way. I can’t be pregnant.” Reese didn’t smile with me. He just watched my face. “Why not?”I turned toward him fully. “I’ve got the implant. It doesn’t just fail.” The words came out harder than I meant them to. They sounded less like fact and more like a wish I was trying to nail to the wall. He studied me for a long second. “So we’re still here,” he said quietly. “You don’t want it to be true.”He was right. I was still having a hard time with it.I touched his arm anyway, needing the contact more than the argument. “That’s not it. I’m just saying the implant is still in. That’s the entire point of having one.” I tried to smile.“You didn’t have to say it like that.”“Like what?” “Don’t do that.” His v

Chapter 209: Pure Murder LizzieI did not wait for her to finish shaking.My palm connected with Bella’s face hard enough to snap her head sideways. Heat bloomed across my hand. Her cheek went red almost instantly.I did not stop.My fingers tangled in her hair and yanked her head back. I had the height advantage and I used every inch of it, forcing her to look up at me while tears already gathered in her eyes.“Madam—stop—it hurts—” The words came out broken. “I don’t know anything about what you’re accusing me of.”I slapped her again. Then I shoved her face down against the nearest stretch of table hard enough that the impact rattled the remaining cutlery.“It was you,” I said. My voice sounded foreign even to myself. “You planted those cameras in our bedroom. Didn’t you?”“No, madam!” She struggled, hands scrabbling at my wrists. “I don’t know anything about that—”A short, ugly laugh left me. “You don’t know.” I reached sideways without looking and closed my fingers around Ramse
