chapter 1

ISABELLA~I heaved a sigh of relief when I finally climbed the last of the front steps, setting the large bag of groceries down beside me. Leaning my forehead on the door, I struggled to catch my breath.'You see, Isabella? This is what happens when you push yourself too hard.'I could hear the voice of my husband Phillip at the back of my mind, scolding me gently. He was always telling me to take it easy, not to work too hard these days, especially since it could hurt our baby. The thought had me caressing my bulging stomach, whispering apologies to my unborn child. Unfortunately, I didn't know how to take it easy. A lifetime of professional hockey can do that to a person.Still, I regretted nothing.It was the anniversary of our marriage, and I wanted to do something special for Phillip. He has been so supportive. He had me quit my job midway into the second trimester, and has been keeping me pampered since then. So if a little exhaustion was the price I had to pay to be the one mak

chapter 2

ISABELLA~'I will ruin you. Even if I die, I'm going to destroy you.'The words echoed in my head as I sank into the darkness. Phillip's face was imprinted behind my eyelids, and my hatred was so thick I could taste it.He was going to pay.I was going to make him pay.If I ever got a chance. Just. One. Chance…Light seemed to explode before my eyes, and I flinched, stumbling backwards. Only for someone to steady me from behind."Whoa there, Sinclair," a cheerful voice spoke. "You're not hungover, are you?"I froze, because I knew that voice.I knew that voice just like I knew how impossible it was that she was speaking right now. I whipped around so fast that my back hit something hard."Oof," she laughed. "You sure are falling around this morning. Late night?"I couldn't answer.I could only stare at her, my eyes going wide as dinner plates. Jessica Suarez has been my best friend since high school. She has also been dead for close to two years. Suddenly, I was back to that awful da

chapter 3

ISABELLA~I connected the spy camera to my laptop, and everyone crowded around me to watch the footage. I skipped ahead to what happened right after I went to practice. It wasn't long before we saw Clara Moretti sneaking in. She looked around, and once she was satisfied that the place was empty, she placed the drugs in my locker and hurried away."There," I said, leaning back with a satisfied smirk. "That's what I have to say."Murmurs filled the room. Everybody knew the team captain's younger sister, of course. She was seventeen, a freshman, and though she wasn't on the team, she was one of the cheerleaders."That's a cruel thing to do," Jessica said. "Why would she do such a thing?"Well, I could think of a few reasons.In my previous life, I caught Phillip cheating on me with Ciara. But who's to say that he wasn't already cheating with her while we were still dating? If that's the case— and I suspect it is— then she put his drugs in my locker to get me out of the way. The poor girl

chapter 4

ISABELLA~I didn't wait for a response. I wrenched my arm free and bolted. I heard his exclamation of surprise before he ran after me. My eyelids were growing heavier, and I could feel the strength leeching out of my limbs. I could hear him right behind me, almost catching up. I ran into the hall, doing my best to blend with the crowd. But my heart was pounding too fast and I couldn't breathe properly. I knew I was going to drop like a brick soon, and then that guy would find me. I needed somewhere to hide. Somewhere safe.I ran between tables, or staggered rather, holding onto everything I could touch just to keep myself moving. I didn't bother asking anybody for help. It would mean trusting a stranger with my unconscious self, and from the way people were looking at me, I could tell they thought I was just drunk. None of them were going to help me.Finally, I found the hallway and stumbled into it, trying doors as I went on. Most of them were locked. Finally, one opened, and I dragg
