Chapter: Chapter 31:BlindsidedCaroline slammed the restaurant door shut, the sound echoing in the quiet night. "Human, human," she hissed under her breath, the word tasting like bile in her mouth. How could she do this to her? How could Maralyn, her supposed best friend, betray her like this? After all these years, after all they'd been through, she'd just... thrown her under the bus."Human, human," she repeated, her voice rising in frustration. She could feel the anger simmering within her, hot and consuming. She needed to get out, to escape this suffocating betrayal. Out of that restaurant, out of that city, out of the clutches of this heartless, manipulative... human. She felt numb, the betrayal stinging like a fresh wound. Her friendship with Maralyn, a bond she'd cherished since childhood, had crumbled into dust. She hailed a cab, the city lights blurring past as she fought back tears. The cab ride was a blur, every street corner a reminder of the life she had built, the life that was now fractured beyond

Chapter: Chapter 30: It's over Author's povThe air in Grandma Agnes's kitchen was thick with the sweet smell of cinnamon rolls. But Caroline couldn't even taste the sugary goodness. All she could feel was a hollow ache in her chest, a feeling that had been there ever since Maralyn dropped that bombshell. "Barren. You're barren." The word echoed in her mind, a cruel taunt whispered by the wind. Its almost 7 years now but she keeps getting flashes of the past."Caroline, dear, are you listening?" Grandma Agnes's voice, warm and comforting like a cup of hot cocoa on a snowy day, snapped her out of her thoughts."Uh-huh," Caroline mumbled, pushing another bite of cinnamon roll around her plate. "You've been so quiet. You've barely touched your breakfast," Grandma Agnes said, her brow furrowing with concern."I'm just… tired, I guess," Caroline said, forcing a smile. Grandma Agnes gave her a knowing look. "Tired of what, honey? Tired of being so sad? It's been a week since Jeffrey left, and you haven't even shed a

You might have a couple of smarts, but you're still playing with fire, and I'm the one holding the matches. Remember those adorable triplets?The ones who were so eager to get to know their big sister? They’re still safe and sound, for now. But they are my bargaining chips, my secret weapon. And I'm going to use them to make you squirm. You'll be begging me to let them go.You'll be begging me to be your friend again. But by then, it will be too late. I’m going to make sure you regret ever crossing me." A wicked laugh bubbled up from my chest, a sound like tinkling bells mixed with the hiss of a serpent. It was a sound that sent shivers down spines, that made hearts race and palms sweat.It was the sound of power, of control. It was the sound of revenge. XOXO, Maralyn. I sent the message and turned back to the babies as I was patiently waiting for Caroline’s response on the rece

Chapter: Chapter 28: Missing!Author's povCaroline grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge, the condensation clinging to the glass like tiny diamonds. She gulped it down, the icy liquid momentarily soothing the burning sensation in her throat. It was the kind of burning you felt after a good fight, not a physical one, but a mental one. The kind that left you feeling raw and exposed.Her eyes drifted to the front door, where Maralyn had stormed out just minutes before. The slam of the door still echoed in Caroline's ears, a reminder of the power struggle that had just unfolded. And while Maralyn had left, the fight, Caroline knew, was far from over. She wanted to feel triumphant, to feel that sweet sense of vindication that came with getting the upper hand. But instead, she felt a strange hollowness. Maralyn's apology had been half-hearted, laced with a resentment that Caroline could practically taste. It wasn't the kind of apology that closed a chapter; it was the kind that only opened up a new one, a more dan

She was playing the game, and she was going to win. Even if it meant sacrificing her own soul. The next day, Caroline went to a show determined to finally break Maralyn. She had been working on a plan for weeks, a plan that she was sure would bring her victory.

Maralyn, her face twisted with a mix of fury and shame, was gone. Caroline watched her leave, a cold satisfaction blooming in her chest. It was done. Maralyn was out of the picture. “Three meats in the game now,” Caroline whispered, her voice barely audible. Ancelotti was the first. She had been forced to be nice to him, all because of Grandma. Grandma, with her endless pronouncements about being "nice to the new boy", had become the bane of Caroline’s existence. But Ancelotti, with his shy smiles and his penchant for wearing mismatched socks, was just too easy to manipulate. He was the perfect target. She’d been pretending to be nice, but behind that mask of faux-friendliness, she was planning her revenge. Ancelotti had become her puppet, his every move orchestrated by her. She had him wrapped around her little finger, and it was only a matter of time before she pulled the s
