CHAPTER 3Isabella’s lips stayed against my hair for a long time. My wrists still held the faint red marks from the scarf, my body felt heavy and used in the best way. I kept waiting for the guilt to arrive properly. It stayed distant, crowded out by the steady beat of her heart under my ear.“I should take you home soon,” she said eventually with a low voice.When we finally got dressed it felt like putting armor back on. Isabella drove me most of the way and dropped me two streets from the house so Chloe wouldn’t see the car. I walked the rest of the distance with her taste still in my mouth and the deep ache of her still between my legs. The night air felt too cool against my flushed skin.Chloe was already asleep when I slipped inside. The guest room door at the end of the hall was closed. I stood outside it longer than I should have, then forced myself to go to my own bed. Every time I closed my eyes I felt Isabella’s hands again.The next three days were careful and sharp with

CHAPTER 2 The laptop screen lit up the dark room at 6:30 a.m. I sat on the floor beside my open bag, the draft of the article glowing in front of me. Every damaging detail I had gathered over three months was right there. All I had to do was hit send to my editor.Behind me, Anna slept in the wide bed, one arm stretched across the space I had left. I stared at the screen until the words blurred then I closed the laptop.I slid the laptop back into my bag and stood. My body still ached in the places she had taken me the night before.Anna’s voice came from the bed, rough with sleep. “You’re leaving.”I turned. She was awake, propped on one elbow, watching me with those sharp dark eyes.“I was going to,” I admitted. My voice came out thinner than I wanted. “I had the whole piece ready. I could have sent it before you even woke up.”Anna sat up slowly. She just looked at me like she was bracing for the hit. “And now?”I walked back to the bed. I climbed in and knelt beside her.“I can’t

CHAPTER 2The doorbell rang like a gunshot. I froze in the east wing, wearing nothing but Annie’s silk robe, the fabric still smelling of her skin and last night’s sex.Annie stood by the window already dressed in black, her eyes cold and focused.“Stay here,” she ordered.The second she left the room I followed barefoot down the stairs. I reached the living room just as Daniel stepped forward to kiss her. Annie turned her face away.He saw me then. His eyes dragged over my bare legs, the way the robe barely covered my breasts and the fresh marks Annie had left on my neck.“Who the fuck is this?”Annie didn’t answer him. She walked straight to me, grabbed the back of my neck, and kissed me in front of him. Her tongue pushed into my mouth like she wanted him to taste exactly what she had been doing to me all night. I moaned into the kiss, hands gripping her waist, body pressing against hers without shame.When she pulled back she looked him dead in the eyes.“The engagement is over, I

CHAPTER 2“He’s going to use that photo,” she said quietly. “If not with the Bar, then with the press. He wants to humiliate me.”Joanna stared at the ceiling. “Then we take the power back before he can.”Benedicta turned her head on the pillow. “How?”Before Joanna could answer, her phone buzzed on the nightstand with a new message from an unknown number.She opened it, a second photo.This one was clearer, taken from inside the building across the street. Joanna’s face fully visible, her mouth open in pleasure, Benedicta’s head between her thighs. In the background of the photo, the nameplate on Joanna’s desk was readable: Joanna Bennett, Senior Partner.The message underneath was short and precise: I know about the sealed complaint from 2019. The one you paid to make disappear. Bring Benedicta to the underground garage of your firm tomorrow at midnight or I send both the photos and the old complaint to the State Bar tonight.Joanna’s blood turned to ice. Benedicta sat up, reading o

CHAPTER 2“Sit down. Both of you.” Coach’s voice was pure ice. I stepped into his office first, Elise followed and closed the door behind us. The photo was already printed and lying in the center of his desk—Elise on her knees between my legs, my head thrown back and her mouth clearly on my cunt.Coach didn’t even glance at the picture. He looked straight at us.“Do you have any idea what this does to the team? To your contract? To her license?”I kept my face blank even though my stomach was twisting. “It’s private.”“Nothing is private when you’re the face of this team,” he snapped. “I should suspend you today. I should fire her on the spot.”Elise stood rigid beside me. I could feel the tension coming off her in waves.Coach leaned forward. “Here’s what’s going to happen. You two stay away from each other outside of scheduled therapy. No late nights or closed doors. One more photo and rumor, I release this myself. Clear?”I forced the word out. “Clear.”Elise only nodded once.We
