CHAPTER 31 — "I LOVE YOU?

I coughed. The drink went down the wrong way. Ethan reached across the table and pulled the glass away from me."You okay?"I waved him off, my hand on my chest, still coughing. My eyes were watering and red. I wiped them with the back of my hand and took a breath."I'm sorry about that," I said with a shaky voice. "The question caught me off guard." I wiped my eyes again."I apologize. I didn't mean for that to happen." He set the glass further from my reach. "Do you want water?""I want you to stop interrogating me. We came here for dinner, right? I don't have answers to them."He leaned back. "Then tell me what you do have answers to."I looked at him. The restaurant was warm with low lights. A table near the back where no one could hear us."Why are you asking me this now?" I said."Because you kissed me." Ethan kept his gaze on mine."You liked it, so why are you asking.""I did. No lies." He didn't blink. "But that's not the point."I stared at him. "Then what is the point, Etha

CHAPTER 32 — Little David

I couldn't move. The phone was still in my hand, the screen was still lit. The words still sitting in my chest.“I am watching you, Lydia. I will be your worst nightmare, say hello to little David for me”.“I read it again, my thumb hovered over the keyboard. I wanted to type something back. Who is this? What do you want? How do you know his name?I couldn’t type anything.I got up. My legs carried me down the hall, Noah's door was open. I stood in the doorway and watched him sleep. He was on his stomach, one arm under the pillow, his mouth slightly open. He was fine, safe and breathing.Sandra was asleep in the guest room down the hall. Everything seemed fine, but nothing was fine. I went back to my room and sat on the edge of the bed. The phone was still in my hand. I called Ethan.He picked up on the second ring, not groggy, like he hadn't been sleeping."I got a message," I said."From who?" His voice dragged."I don't know, an unknown number.""What did it say?"I read it to him,

CHAPTER 33 — THE STRANGER'S NOTE.

"Come in." His voice came out sharp from within.I opened the door. He was standing at the window with his back to me, hands in his pockets. Blue shirt sleeves rolled up.He turned around."You've been avoiding me," he said."We… we've been busy.""Lydia, that's a lie." He said, tracing a line on the table with his fingers and then back at me.I met his eyes. "What do you want, David?"He walked toward me, slowly, and stopped a few feet away."I want to know why you kissed me back. When I kissed you, why didn't you pull away immediately?"My chest tightened. "It was a mistake.""Was it?" He lifted his eyebrow."Yes." I swallowed.He looked at me for a long moment. His eyes moved over my face like he was looking for the truth.He got nothing on me."Okay," he said. "If that's what you need to tell yourself."He walked back to his desk and sat down."I need you focused on the project," he said. "No more hiding in the east conference room. No more junior associates. I need you in the roo

CHAPTER 34 — I SEE YOU

LYDIA’S POVI sat on Noah's bedroom floor in the dark.The note was still in my hand. “I see you, LYDIA”. I had read it so many times the words were starting to blur. Noah was asleep in his bed three feet away. His mouth was open, his hand was curled under his pillow.I had checked the windows twice, the closet once, I checked every pocket in his backpack, every compartment. There was nothing else, just the paper.I called Ethan.He picked up on the first ring. "What's wrong?""Someone was in my house."The line went quiet. Then, "What? Listen, stay where you are. I'm coming."He hung up before I could argue.Twenty minutes later he was at my door. He walked past me and checked every room himself. Locks, windows, Noah's room again. Nothing was broken, forced or out of place.He sat at my kitchen table with the note in his hand and read it four times. His jaw was tight. His face was different. I had seen Ethan calm through boardroom battles and client meltdowns. I had never seen him

CHAPTER 35 — US?

CHAPTER 35 — US?I didn't sleep. How could I?The teacher's message was still on my phone: "Someone took his bag. We found it outside the classroom." I read it again. Someone had taken Noah's bag, had put that note inside, had brought it back before anyone noticed.In the morning, I called the school and left a message for the principal. My voice was steady, but my hands were shaky. Noah stayed home. I needed to be sure what was going on before taking him back to school.Ethan called while I was still in bed. His mother's sixtieth birthday was tonight. They were having a big family party, and he wanted me there."Not as my fake wife," he said. "As my date."I owed him everything he had done since this started — Noah, the follow-up, always being a call away. I couldn't refuse."Okay," I said.The party was packed. Ethan's mother's house overflowing with relatives and old family friends. Music playing. People dancing. I stood near the window with a glass of wine I wasn't drinking and fe

CHAPTER 36-- DISTRACTIONS

CHAPTER 36 — DISTRACTIONSDAVID'S POVThe morning briefing was a disaster.Lydia sat at the far end of the table with her folder open to the wrong page. She kept looking at her phone under the table like she was waiting for something terrible to appear on the screen. She left three sentences unfinished, two of her junior associates shared a look.I had seen her tired before. I had seen her pull all-nighters and still walk into a boardroom and burn everyone in it. This was different, like she was scared.After the meeting, I caught her in the corridor. She was on a call, her voice was shaky, “Stay safe baby, mum would be home soon, I love you”. She dropped her phone into her bag."You okay?" I asked, stepping inShe jumped with her hands over her chest."Oh my God, you scared me" She muttered under her breath.“I am so sorry I scared you, just wanted to know how you are” I slipped my hands into my pocket.Her eyes moved over me, like she was trying to figure out how her wellbeing affec

CHAPTER 37 — GUARD

DAVID'S POVI stood in my living room with the red letters staring back at me and thought about Lydia's recent behavior. I didn't sleep in that apartment. I couldn't. I picked a few things for the night and for work the next morning and left. The red on the wall was still dripping when I walked out, and I knew if I stayed, I would spend the whole night staring at it.The hotel was close to the office. I sat on the edge of the bed with my phone in my hand, and the thought of what had happened ran through my mind. Nina's voice on the phone: "Clearing the distractions." Anyone standing between Nina and what she wanted was a target.I was at the office before anyone else the next morning. The building was empty. The security guard at the front desk looked surprised to see me. I took the stairs to my floor and sat in my office with the door closed and watched the sun come up over the city.Marcus knocked at seven thirty."Come in, Marcus, and close the door behind you.""What's up, man? Yo

CHAPTER 38 — BREADCRUMBS

LYDIA'S POVEthan walked into my office and closed the door. He sat across from me and put a folder on my desk."Look at this," he said.I opened it. Printed pages, phone records. A vehicle registration and a name attached to the number that called the school sign-in sheet. The name was not Nina. It was a woman named Dara.The vehicle registration connected Dara to an address. And that address appeared in a rental agreement connected to a company neither of us had ever heard of."I can't fully confirm yet," Ethan said. "But everything keeps circling back to the same point.""Who?" I leaned forward.He looked at me. "I think you already know."I closed the folder. "We need more, Ethan. We can't go to the police with circles.""I know." He leaned back. "I'm close, Lydia. Give me a few more days."I nodded. "Thanks for your help, Ethan." I stretched my hands out to his. "I don't take your help for granted."He stood up without saying a word, picked up his jacket, and stopped at the door.

CHAPTER 39 — I THINK I LOST HER, FINALLY

DAVID'S POVMarcus stood up and walked Nina out of the room. His hand was on her elbow."Don't touch me!" she barked, pulling out of Marcus's grip. "David, this isn't over. Sending me out like some used item." She yelled out, her voice filled the entire hall, all the way downstairs.Then the room went silent.No one moved. No one spoke. The paper sat on the table where Nina had dropped it. A pregnancy result that clearly showed positive with her name on it. I stared at it and did not touch it. My hands stayed flat on the table in front of me.I could feel Lydia across the room. I did not look at her. I could not.A board member cleared his throat. "Perhaps we should adjourn?""Yes, that's the best right now," said another.My voice came out rough. "Meeting adjourned."Chairs pushed back. People stood, gathered their things, and filed out in silence. No one looked at me. No one knew what to say. Some of them had seen Lydia and me in the elevator with our hands locked. Some of them had

CHAPTER 40 — SHE SHOWED UP, AT MY DOORSTEP?

LYDIA'S POVI sat still at my desk after David walked out, my head leaned back on my chair.I meant every word. I did not flinch. He would be crazy to think I cared about his little game with his little mistress while my son was out there taking risks because of someone my gut told me was Nina.I looked at the door he had closed behind him. Then I packed my bag, closed my laptop, and walked out.Maya was at her desk. "You okay?""I'm fine."She did not believe me. I saw it written all over her.The drive home was quiet. The city was dark. The parking garage was empty. My footsteps echoed off the concrete. I sat in my car for a moment with my hands on the wheel and thought about David's face when I told him to leave. The way he stared at me. Like I had changed, like he was seeing me for the first time and realizing what he had lost.I shouldn't care, but I found myself worrying about whether I was too harsh, or maybe I could have listened? I shouldn't be doing this. Nina has his seed i
