"Oh... yeah," Eric muttered, realization dawning on his face. "Yeah, I remember. Tough stuff, that." He glanced at me with a raised brow. "Did that really happen? Because for a second, I thought you were just trying to paint her as a villain."

"Of course, it happened!" Rita snapped. "You can go back to our high school and ask. But I kept her secret. That’s why nobody ever found out she was the one who did it."

Ritq had gained Tina’s curiosity, her eyes narrowing as she leaned forward. "What are the two of you talking about?" she demanded. "I want to know. Maybe it has something to do with what happened to Trey tonight."

I felt my head spin. "Are you serious right now? How are the two even connected? I just met Trey tonight! What does that have to do with anything I did in high school?"

Tina’s lips curled into a smug smile. "It shows your history—your history of violence."

I groaned, dragging a hand down my face. "Oh my God, I can’t take this anymore!" I turned to the officer, my patie

    "Trey…..," I exclaimed.The officer said, his voice steely, "I know you're in pain And I'm sorry, but I can’t leave this room."Trey's jaw tightened as he glared at him. His eyes flashed with irritation before a slow smirk appeared at the corner of his mouth. "You know what? Fine," he muttered.He reached over, grabbed the call button on his bed, and pressed it furiously, his thumb jabbing the button over and over until, moments later, a nurse burst in, nearly out of breath."Yes, Mr. Flagger?" she gasped, her eyes wide with alarm. "Are you okay? What is it?"Trey didn’t look at her. His eyes were fixed on the officer as he pointed a finger toward him. "Tell my mother I want this officer out of my room before I lose my mind!" His voice cracked with barely restrained fury as he practically shouted at the poor woman.The nurse flinched as she scrambled backwards. "I’ll… I’ll let her know right away," she stammered before hurrying off.The door hadn’t even fully closed when the officer

    I forced a smile onto my face as I walked closer toward him, keeping as much space between us as I possibly could. The air between us hung heavy with tension, and he watched me in silence, his eyes dark and unreadable. For a moment, the only sound in the room was the faint beeping of the heart monitor. I needed to break the silence and end this moment so I could leave the room immediately.“So,” I started, my voice light, “how are you feeling?”“My head hurts, my eye hurts, my hand hurts,” he said flatly. “And I feel like shit.”I nodded, forcing myself to appear sympathetic. “But you’re going to live, right?”He offered a slow, lazy smile, his eyes never leaving mine. “Yes, Mina. I’m afraid I’m going to keep on living. Probably for a very long time.”“Okay.” I exhaled. “Then since you’re alright, I think I’ll just tell everybody in the waiting room that you’re fine, you’re good, and everything is okay.” I turned slightly, already preparing to make my exit. “I’ll be on my way.”He

    “He’s my fiancé,” I corrected him through gritted teeth.“Yeah, whatever,” Trey continued dismissively. “Maybe Emerson Blackwind won’t go to jail. But think of his name. Think of the blackWind’s name. Think of his company, his investors, and the precious stock prices. His name is supposed to be clean, Mina. He’s supposed to be above scandal. He’s managed it so well for so long, right? But then—” Trey grinned wickedly, “he got engaged to his son’s ex-wife. That raised a few eyebrows, sure, but people love a rich man’s drama. They excused it and put all the blame on you instead. But violence? Assault? Oh, that’s a whole different story. Violence ruins reputations. People will piece it all together—the engagement, the temper, and suddenly...” He chuckled softly, “Suddenly, Emerson Blackwind isn't who he used to be anymore..”My stomach churned. “You’ve really thought this through, haven’t you?”Trey shrugged again, unbothered. “I mean, h hitting me could’ve been one of the best moments

    “You don’t know why I quit in the first place,” I snapped. “It’s more personal than you think.”“Doesn’t matter. If you walk away now, you’re still a quitter. And I’m not going to let you.”I raised an eyebrow. “You’re not going to let me?”“That’s right.” His tone hardened. “You're useful right now. My second demand is simple: you’re not quitting Black Wind. You’re staying until our project is finished. Until you’ve completed the deal with Flagler Corporation, you’re not walking away.”I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms,“And when this project is over?”“Then you can quit all you like. But until then? You’re staying. So start thinking about work, Nina. You’re not done with me yet. You will be seeing a lot of me in the future.”“What is it with you?” I snapped, my eyes narrowing.Trey raised a brow, feigning innocence. “What do you mean?”“Does making me feel uncomfortable do something for your ego? Does it give you a high? Or what? Does it get you hard? Is that it?”

    "Why are you doing all of this? What is it that you want?" My voice was full of frustration. "Why don’t we just go to the heart of it so you can tell me what it is you want? I just want to give you whatever you want so you can leave me alone. Okay?"Trey's eyes didn’t waver. "I don’t think this is any way to talk to me.""You mean to talk to someone who’s blackmailing me? Someone who’s threatening me?""I wouldn’t put it that way.""Then what way would you put it?" My voice rose, "What way do you want me to put it? What was it that made you choose me? I wonder” I asked while thinking it through,“Was it because everyone at that table was a man and I was the only woman? Is that it? You couldn’t choose your mother—obviously. And you couldn’t choose Rita because she’s…what value does she even have to you? You don’t know anything about her. But me?" I leaned forward. "Me?

    We sat in heavy silence for a few minutes. Then Treyson broke it with a whisper."I’m sorry."I turned my head, giving him an unimpressed look before rolling my eyes. "Well, don’t get suddenly all soft on me," I snapped. "Blackmailers aren’t supposed to be soft, are they? You’re forgetting the role you’re supposed to play."A chuckle escaped him. "Then I guess I’m lucky I didn’t have a brother.""Well, I mean…" I paused, my voice softening. "I don’t know. Some people have sisters and brothers, and they’re actually happy to have a family, siblings. I just… I can’t believe I never saw it. I knew Rita was a little jealous of me growing up. I mean, I was jealous of her, too. I guess that’s normal with siblings, right? I was always envious of her bond with our mother, and she resented my relationship with our father. But still…" My chest tightened at the memories. "It was very painful. It still is. I don’t want to think about it."Treyson didn’t interrupt. He just watched me, letting me s

    For reasons I did not understand, reasons I was not ready for, I was laughing with this person. He was the most maddening person in the world. And being in here, he has made me tell him how I was feeling, and laugh with him. Ridiculous!This must be the second time I was laughing with him. As I realized this, I looked at him again, and I thought, 'What’s up with this one? Is he a psychopath? Is he... Like, what is it about him that can be so maddening and makes you laugh at the same time? Is he a psychopath? A narcissist? A master manipulator?But also...I’m very confused.And as I thought this, I knew it. He was dangerous. He was trouble. He was not someone to be close to. He was someone I was supposed to keep a distance from and tell someone—anyone—about whatever it was that was going on here.So, out of nowhere, I just snapped."Is that going to be all? I don’t have to leave Blackwind? Okay, right, done. Can I leave now?"He looked at me, and there was this look.I caught him off

    "Fine. What's the next one?" I decided to cut to the point."Well..." He drew out the word. "To be honest, I think I’m just gonna give you three.""Alright. Thank you, Your Majesty," I replied, sarcasm dripping from my voice. "What’s the last one?""I think I’m gonna keep this one to myself."I blinked. "What?"He smirked. "I feel like there’s a day when I’ll need to use this last card. So I’m gonna keep it. One day, when the need arises, I’ll cash it in.""What do you think this is, the Mafia?" I narrowed my eyes. "Are you like the mob, keeping favours or something?"He actually considered this for a moment, nodding as if he were seriously pondering his life choices. "You know, I could have been a good Mafia boss. I mean, I’m handsome after all. Strong. Charismatic.""One punch sent you to the hospital," I pointed out flatly.He winced, rubbing his jaw in mock pain. "Then I guess I just need to work harder."There was a pause."So...

    MinaI was in the delivery room about to bring my baby into this world, and who knew it hurt like hell? Mmh!I was very lucky and very grateful to have my husband here with me. He kept holding my hand, telling me sweet things, and encouraging me when the doctors told me to push. He pushed with me, breathed with me. It was kind of crazy. I don't know, maybe after I was done here I would think about this moment and laugh about it. It was a moment in my life when I really needed him, and I was so, so happy and so grateful to have him here beside me.The two doctors that Mr. Emerson insisted on having here were top in their fields. He didn’t care, he had to fly one in as long as I got everything and I was in great hands.The doctors were great, they were encouraging. I just wanted this moment to be over and for my baby to come into this world so I could hear their cry. We were still in the dark; we didn’t know if we were having a girl or a b

  • MARRYING My FATHER-IN-LAW    Emmerson - The Reason

    EmmersonThe next morning, I decided to handle things myself. I know Mina’s already been through enough trauma with her family, so I don’t want to involve her in this. She’s still asleep, and I slip out quietly to deal with Eric.I find him at the hotel, slumped over, still asleep. I nudge him with the toe of my shoe, the force making him stir. Slowly, his eyes flicker open, and the haze of sleep and alcohol makes him groggy. He rises, blinking and groaning, his hand clutching his head."Wake up, Eric," I tell him as I open the curtains, letting the bright light flood the room. He immediately shields his eyes, groaning louder."My head... hurts," he mutters, his voice thick with a hangover. He grabs the bottle of water on the bedside table and gulps down a large portion in one go."Last night," he laments, "I didn't like how your men dragged me out of that nightclub.""You call that a nightclub? It was a strip

    EmmersonOh yeah?” Mina’s voice is a little high-pitched.And then Rita says something that makes my blood cold.“Of course,” she replies, her voice dripping with arrogance. “I mean if I could take Eric from you so easily before… When you weren’t this heavily pregnant, and we weren’t even living in the same house. Just think how simple it would be to take his father from you now.”Her voice is low and suggestive. Mina scoffs, maybe out of shock, but Rita doesn’t stop.“I mean, look at you,” she continues, mockingly. “You’re pregnant. You can’t even walk properly without someone holding you. You have to be carried just to get around.” She chuckles,“And me?” she adds. “I’m just getting started. The exercises I’ll do, the maintenance I’ll keep up… You know I won't be breastfeeding, right? This baby is feeding from the bottle. Nothing is messing up this....hot body.”In my mind, I can already picture her motioning to her bo

  • MARRYING My FATHER-IN-LAW    Emmerson -The Death

    Emmerson By nightfall, the police have already paid us a visit. It’s all over the news. Madeline had a little accident on the highway. Her car hit the side of a bridge and went down under. She suffocated. But I know the truth. Let her feel what it’s like to lose air. Anyway, the point is—she’s dead. The police came because, after her attack on Mina, there was already a record of her actions. They were just here to deliver the report. To tell us that she was gone. That also settled the issue with Rose. Mina had never been convinced that Rose was behind it, and now that Madeline was out of the picture, it was clear she had been wrongfully accused. Mina was shocked with the news, I never thought she would actually be upset after everything. Even though there’s still sadness in her eyes, I can see the difference. She’s no

    EmmersonAfter I had taken Mina home, I gave her a bath, making sure she was okay and taken Care of. She was reluctant to eat at first, but I insisted. “You need nutrition,” I reminded her. “I know you don't want to but do it for the baby. You’re pregnant, you're doing it for our baby.”She sighed, but eventually gave in, taking small sips of the warm soup I had prepared. I watched her closely, ensuring she had everything she needed. Then, I sat her down and gently caressed her hair.I kept talking as I did it—about everything and nothing at the same time. Just filling the silence, making sure she felt covered and safe. My voice was low and comforting. I caressed her head, feeling the softness of her scalp, letting her know she wasn’t alone.And then, she fell asleep.Once I was sure she was deep in rest, I finally allowed myself to feel it all—the anger, the frustration, the overwhelming sense of failure.How could I h

    As Emerson's voice continued on the phone, offering words of comfort, trying to calm me, I felt my tears flow faster. I couldn't hear him clearly anymore over the noise in my head, the panic, the certainty that I was going to die. I just listened to him, letting his voice be a thread tying me to something.Then, the banging stopped.I hadn't even realized it.Instead, a knock. A soft, reassuring knock."Mina, Mina, come on, open the door," Emerson's voice came through the phone, clearer now.I still didn’t understand what was happening. My mind was so clouded by fear, but hearing his voice… it soothed me in ways I couldn’t explain. I was barely aware of his words, just the sound of him calling my name, telling me it was okay."Emerson, is that you?" I asked, my voice barely a whisper."Yes, it's me. Open the door, Mina."The reality of it hit me. I had been trapped in a nightmare, my heart frozen with terror, bu

    I started scribbling on the piece of paper.[I can't do this anymore. I'm going to kill myself.]I set the pen down and exhaled. "Okay, I'm done."Madeline narrowed her eyes. "What did you write so fast?"She stalked toward me, snatched the paper out of my hands, and read it. Her expression darkened, and before I could brace myself, she slapped me hard across the face. The force nearly knocked me out of the chair.A sharp sting spread across my cheek, my vision blurred for a second. My entire face tingled from the impact, and I gritted my teeth, refusing to let a single tear fall.Who knew I would ever be in this situation? Kidnapped at gunpoint. Forced to write my own suicide letter.Madeline took a deep breath, trying to regain her composure. Then she smirked."You're smart, Mina. We can argue about a lot of things, but not that. You're a smart little thing, a devious little thing. That’s how you got Emerson i

    Madeline’s grip on my arm became almost painful. I could feel the gun on my side, like a silent, invisible threat.I forced a laugh, shaking my head. "Oh, you know... My condition." I gestured vaguely at myself. "It’s still hard for me to get up, takes a while to get out of bed. I was sleeping."Tom stared at me, his eyes searching my face as if he was trying to read through my words.Then, finally, he gave a slow nod. "Okay."But he still didn’t leave."Can I come in?" he asked. "I can give you some company.""No!" The word shot out of my mouth too fast, too loud, too desperate.Madeline pressed the gun against my side, a silent threat, a warning that made my blood turn cold.Tom’s frown deepened.I forced another smile, shaking my head quickly. "I mean—no, it’s okay. I was sleeping. I don’t need company right now."I gave an awkward laugh, motioning toward the inside of the apartment. "If you came in, you’d just be sitting alone because I’m going back to bed."Tom didn’t look conv

    "I'm sorry, Madeline, I swear I didn’t—""Just tell me why!" she shouted to my face, her voice filled with frustration.I was shaking, my throat dry, my mind running a mile a minute. "I don't know, okay? Maybe because he was there. He was nice. He was understanding, and he made me feel safe. He made me happy. He made me feel like I could be the person I wanted to be." My voice cracked, and I rushed to explain, desperate for her to believe me. "It was never about his age, Madeline. I always thought he was cute, you know? I always thought he was really handsome. And then when we slept together, I realized I could have everything I ever wanted with him, okay? I'm sorry. I really didn’t know—"She let out a cold laugh, cutting me off. "You're not sorry. Stop trying to act like some innocent girl who thought he was ‘the one.’"Her voice was mocking, twisting my words into something dirty."You don’t even love him. Not really. You love the things he represents." She took a step closer, he
