The Woman In The Van Book Novels & Stories

"Miss Bellini has already placed orders from these sketches. If you're trying to make money off her name, stop before you embarrass yourself." I went somewhere else. Then somewhere else again. The answer never changed. People recognized the designs. No one thought they were mine. One man actually laughed and said, "Women like Sofia Bellini don't steal from women like you." By the time I stepped back onto the street, my hands had gone cold. No one should have seen those books. Then I remembered my suite. The drawers overturned. The boxes emptied. My life spread open for strangers to touch. I went home, and Adrian knew something was wrong the second he saw my face.

They were glowing with a solid, brilliant violet light. "The Queen is expecting you," the woman said, her voice sounding like a dozen voices speaking at once. "But she said the guest list doesn't include the husband." Suddenly, the van’s tires exploded. The vehicle swerved, flipping over and skidding across the gravel toward the rose garden. As Maya crawls out of the wreckage, her vision glitches again. 𝗜𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗜𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗭𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡: 𝟭𝟬%.

Just as I was about to knock, a luxury van pulled up in front of the house. Out stepped Hilary, holding Lily's hand. "Mommy, that's the bad man!" Lily spotted me and pointed straight at me. Ignoring the murderous glare Hilary shot me, I turned toward the villa's entrance. "Nick!" she shrieked behind me. "Haven't you had enough?! Didn't you promise to leave us alone?! Go away!" She grabbed Lily and moved to push me back, but just then, the iron gate opened. An older woman with graying temples walked out.

The second was the van. No markings. Engine running. Parked half a street too far from the curb. The third was the woman standing under the awning near the shelter entrance. At first glance she looked like any other volunteer caught in bad weather. Hair pinned back. Coat buttoned neatly. Umbrella discarded at her feet. Then she turned. Elara knew her. The recognition hit like a blade dragged slowly under the skin. Not because the woman had once been close. Worse. Because she had once watched.

just dropped the last few rungs, crossed the pavement, and jimmied the driver’s door open in seconds. The woman slid in beside him while Isla and I climbed into the back, the air smelling faintly of oil and stale bread. The engine sputtered to life just as headlights flared at the end of the street. Ethan floored it. The van rattled like it might fall apart at fifty miles an hour, but he handled it like it was an extension of his own body, weaving through side streets, taking sharp turns without warning. Every time I thought we’d lost them, another set of headlights would appear in the mirrors.

"Bobby, forgive me. It's my fault. Grandmother was foolish to trust Debbie. Are you angry with me? Is that why you won't come to see your poor old grandmother..." Her voice, filled with anguish and sobs, filtered through the gap of the slightly ajar door, tugging at heartstrings. Elsewhere, a silver van with fake plates stopped in front of the city’s busiest shopping center. The door flung open; from it, a woman was thrown onto the street. With not a stitch on her, she was covered in bruises and blood – her face no longer recognizable. The door slammed shut, and the van sped off, disappearing into the distance.

Just more lackeys, maybe coming to watch the show. My captors exchanged wry grins and headed over to greet the new arrivals, leaving me momentarily unattended. I hardly dared to breathe as the rear doors of the van creaked open and—to my horror—the limp form of a barefoot woman wearing a black evening gown was hauled roughly out and flung to the dirt. I recognized her immediately despite the burlap sack covering her head. It was Olivia. A moment later, the passenger and driver’s side doors of the van opened and out stepped two more familiar figures: Dan and Montgomery.

She struck a man in the shin with another kick. Despite his grunt, he remained steady. She was pushed forward and pushed into the rear of the van. Her knees struck the hard floor, causing her legs to ache. The doors slammed with a loud clang behind her as she attempted to clamber back out. The darkness engulfed her. Her nostrils were filled with the smell of metal, gasoline and rubber. The air was thick and difficult to breathe, and the van was overheated. The cold metal walls and hard, rigid floor were all she could find to grasp onto with her hands. Her chest rose and fell too quickly, causing her to breathe in short gasps. She exclaimed, "Where am I? Who are you people?"
