Laura “The pleasure is all mine, ma'am,” Gideon said, "Goodness, it feels like I’m looking at a slightly older version of Laura. I'm sure you would love to have me as your son-in-law, ma'am, because unlike him, I have always been faithful and in love with your daughter. And just to highlight, I nev
Laura “You heard them, Bathory. Get out of here immediately, or else I will be forced to use brute force,” Jason declared, his face set and his jaw clenched. Suddenly a screaming silence formed there, no one knowing what the next steps would be; no one could lift a fork to their mouth. Everyone wa
Melanie Albert and Max had been friends forever, since before I even met my husband. They were the kind of friends who were always together for everything—inseparable and irreproachable. And I, as Albert's wife, understood their friendship and everything, although, at a certain point, I ended up be
Melanie “What was that scene in the car, Mel? What the hell is going on?” Albert asked as soon as he got home and saw me sitting on the sofa, drinking tea, to calm me down. I had just called Laura to apologize once again to her for everything that had happened. “Why did you just freak out? Like, we
Laura When it was nighttime, our friends had to go to their houses, so we followed them to the garage while we hugged and said goodbye. “Argh, it’s already so late. Why don’t you spend the night here at once?” I suggested it as I hugged Ava affectionately. She giggled. “I think what you want mos
Jason It was early in the morning, and Laura and I were sleeping cuddled up and comfortable. The light in the room was low and recommended for a good night's sleep, so I could see my wife's silhouette and feel her in my arms. She slept so close to me that it would even be a sin to move away from he
Melanie That same night, I felt Albert shake my shoulder lightly as he called out to me. Confused, I woke up looking at him. "What's going on?" I tried to find out, without understanding, why he was waking me up at dawn. “I'm sorry to be waking you up like this at such a time, but I need to talk t
Laura “Why is there all this crying here? What is happening here?” I asked worriedly as I entered the boys' room. Daniel was screaming, making a real scene. The babysitters couldn't even hold him. “He hit me, Mommy!” Daniel said as he cried, pointing to his brother, who was on the other side of th
Jason's POV I was sitting in this VIP café, a place that exuded sophistication and privacy, waiting for Gideon Bathory. His name evoked memories I would like to forget, but were indelibly marked in my history with Laura. In our years of trial—dark and tortuous years when we were divorced—Gideon was
Anne's POV The morning had a different significance today. When I came down for breakfast, my mother was already running late, which isn't exactly surprising but always a little shocking. Mom and Dad had gone to a party last night and came home late, which was also to be expected. My grandmothers
Albert's POV The night was falling heavily as I followed the road to the address Max had sent me, about the place where he would be waiting for me and needing my help. And surprisingly, the GPS led me to a police station in Queens, which made me frown since Max had an apartment in Manhattan. So, w
Albert POV The party had been over for a while, but the feeling of it still lingered in the air. I poured myself a generous whiskey; I needed a moment after all that chaos, even if it was good chaos. The Williams mansion was silent now; only the sound of the liquid hitting the glass filled the room
Max POV “Oh my God… I had never had sex with a man with a pussy before! And it was incredible…!” Zoey Lee was sighing with a silly smile, staring at the ceiling of the room after having had a sublime cumshot, a cumshot that, modesty aside, he had provided for her. “That’s right, darling. My lovers
Laura POV “So are you going to help Gideon or not?” I asked him while we were still lying in our bed, looking at each other. Jason sighed as he threw his head back on the pillow and stared at the ceiling of our room. “I don’t know, to tell you the truth,” he replied. “May Lindsay forgive me, but I
Laura POV “Do you want to talk about what happened at the party earlier?” Jason asked me as the driver took us back home. I gave a resigned sigh and rubbed the numb area behind my neck. “No need to talk about it, honey. I'm tired, all I want now is my bed,” I told him. That party had really been l
Max POV“You were the one behind those two's divorce, Ms. Williams-Davies,” I told her. “For Lindsay, you are the other woman. And you still think you have the right to say that wanting to bring them together is not your business?”Laura was blinking, visibly impacted by my words. It was obvious tha
Max POV “You want me to talk to my husband to help Gideon; is that what I heard?” Laura was asking me that with a look of shock on her face. “That's right, you heard very well,” I replied. “I want you to talk to your husband to help my brother.” Laura Williams Davies wanted to roll her eyes rig
