EMMA'S POV

I sat on the cold, unyielding metal chair in the stark interrogation room, my fingers nervously intertwined on the table. The harsh fluorescent light above buzzed faintly, casting a pale, unforgiving glow across the room. My gaze shifted to Officer Precious, who sat across from me, her posture composed and intimidating. Her piercing eyes seemed to search for cracks in my resolve, and for a moment, the silence between us felt deafening. Then, finally, she broke it.

“So, Miss Martinez, tell me why you wanted to kill Mr. Davis Jason,” she said, her voice calm yet carrying an edge of authority that sent a chill down my spine.

Her question hit me like a thunderbolt, leaving me momentarily stunned. My mind raced, struggling to grasp the weight of her words. Kill Davis? The man I loved? The idea was absurd. Slowly, I tilted my head, narrowing my eyes as confusion and hurt fought for dominance. “Why would I want to kill my boyfriend? The man I love so much?” I asked, my voice barel

    DANIEL'S POVMy deal with Simeon and Hannah never included Jason getting hurt, but here we are. Hannah stood in front of me, anger written all over her face, her hands clenched into fists. The tension in the room was almost suffocating.“My deal with you and Simeon never included Jason getting hurt,” she snapped, her voice sharp and cold, cutting through the silence like a knife.I leaned back in my chair, feigning indifference, although her anger was quite amusing. “I know,” I replied calmly, my tone deliberately nonchalant, “but why do you care?”She froze for a moment, her expression shifting from anger to confusion, her brows furrowing. “Because I’m human. He was shot, Daniel! He almost died!” she yelled, pacing the room back and forth like a caged animal. Her voice was rising, filled with frustration and fury.I watched her closely, carefully studying her every move. She was mad— there was no denying that. But the question was, why? Was this rage truly fueled by her so- called hu

    JUDITH'S POVThe first time I saw Jason, he was with Emma at a popular restaurant in Queens. I didn’t feel the kind of emotional attachment most people would expect in such a situation. No, my feelings were different— darker, simpler. I didn’t want him as a partner, a companion, or someone to share my life with. I just wanted him, plain and simple. Not in an emotional way, but as someone who could satisfy the urges I had buried deep inside me for far too long. I didn’t need to like him; I didn’t even need to respect him. All I needed was to have him in my bed, nothing more, nothing less.I had used the same tactics on men like Daniel and Simeon before. It was a game I knew all too well— a game I had mastered. I pushed hard, played my cards right, and always got exactly what I wanted. Men were predictable that way, easy to manipulate if you knew the right buttons to press. But for some reason, I decided to let Jason slide that day. Maybe I was bored of the usual, or maybe I wanted to s

    JUDITH'S POVI was sitting in front of the mirror, carefully applying my makeup, getting ready for work. The room was quiet except for the occasional sound of the makeup brush against my face. My phone buzzed on the table beside me, breaking the silence. I glanced at it and saw Daniel's name flashing on the screen. I didn’t even need to check twice; I already knew why he was calling. He needed answers— answers I wasn’t quite ready to give him.I sighed, picked up the phone, and placed it on the table in front of me. Switching to speaker mode, I continued with my makeup, ensuring I wouldn’t be interrupted. “Good morning, dear,” I greeted him casually, my tone light as I brushed some foundation on my face.“There’s nothing good about this morning, Judith,” Daniel’s voice thundered through the speaker, loud and laced with irritation.I couldn’t help but smile at his frustration. He always got so worked up. “Is there any problem?” I asked innocently, pretending to be oblivious as I moved

    JASON'S POVThe moment Emma stepped into the hospital room, it felt as though my entire world had shifted back into place. The memories I thought were lost forever suddenly came rushing back with a force that was almost too much to bear. It was like a dam had burst, flooding my mind with vivid and sharp images from a past I had believed was buried. Overwhelming as it was, there was a strange sense of relief in it all, like a long- forgotten puzzle finally being pieced together. b“Emma,” I called out, my voice trembling as I watched her move toward Judith, the nurse who had been tending to me. Emma’s gaze lingered on her before she finally asked, “When did you become a nurse?”The look on her face was indescribable— somewhere between disbelief and awe. I could tell she was surprised, though I couldn’t entirely decipher her emotions.“I remember… I remember everything,” I blurted out, unable to hold back the words that seemed to spill from my lips. It had been so long since I smiled, b

    JASON'S POVI stared at Emma as her voice broke the silence, her words cutting through the tense air like a sharp knife. “Why didn’t you tell me about your ex? Why didn’t you tell me she’s pregnant with your baby?” she asked, her voice trembling slightly as if she didn’t want to believe what she was saying.The weight of her question hit me hard, and for a moment, I couldn’t speak. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself before responding. “I’m not responsible for the pregnancy,” I said firmly, meeting her gaze. “We ended things two months before I met you. There’s no way she can be a month pregnant for me when we ended things two months ago.”Emma stood there, staring at me, her eyes searching mine for any hint of deceit. I could hear her take a deep, shaky breath, a sound that carried doubt, even though she was trying to mask it.“I believe you, Jason,” she finally said, reaching out and grabbing my hand. Her touch was warm, reassuring, but her words carried a warning. “But thin

    JUDITH'S POV It’s almost like I’m cursed, and I admit it. I am stubborn, and I always get what I want. That’s just who I am. If I set my mind on something, there’s no stopping me, no matter what or who stands in my way. So, when Jason regained his memory, I saw it as an opportunity— a big one, bigger than anything I’d dared to dream of before. Of course, he didn’t remember who shot him. At least, that’s what he said. The moment Jason mentioned he didn’t see the face of the person who pulled the trigger, I knew Daniel wouldn’t just sit back and let it go. Daniel was never the kind of man to let things slide, and he wouldn’t buy Jason’s story for a second. So, I called him to let him know Jason was back to himself. The phone barely rang before he picked up. “I don’t believe that,” Daniel said, his voice sharp, almost accusing, like I was lying to him. “How can he not know? He should have seen me, he should?” I kept my voice steady, not wanting him to catch any nerves. “Jason said he

    JASON'S POVOne thing I hate most in this life is cheating. I despise it with every fiber of my being. It’s not just a principle to me; it’s a boundary, a hard line I will never cross, no matter what happens. Have seen how it's affected my parents when I was young. So cheating is a betrayal I cannot forgive, and it disgusts me to my core. Sitting on my couch, staring blankly at the wall, I still couldn’t believe what was happening. Judith was actually offering me a deal— a deal that could land Daniel in jail and finally put an end to his constant threats and interference in my life. On the surface, it sounded like a solution, but deep down, I knew it wasn’t that simple. Because as much as Daniel was a problem, he wasn’t my only one. There was also Simeon. Compared to Daniel, Simeon wasn’t as ruthless, but he was still a thorn in my side— a constant source of trouble that wouldn’t go away.Judith’s voice suddenly cut through my thoughts, snapping me back to the present.“Are you in or

    EMMA'S POV After the fight that night, I couldn’t believe I’d finally done it. For so long, Judith had pushed me beyond my limits, and I had been holding back, trying to keep my emotions in check. But the way I beat her that night— it wasn’t just a fight; it was a release of all the anger and frustration I had bottled up inside. I knew I’d crossed a line. Deep down, I felt guilty about it. But at the same time, I couldn’t shake the thought that she deserved every bit of it. After all, she had caused me so much pain, trying to ruin my life despite everything I had done for her. I had gone above and beyond to be the bigger person, but she just wouldn’t stop. Yet, even with all that justification in my head, there was still a sense of unease lingering in my heart. That night, Jason stayed by my side, doing his best to calm me down. He assured me that we could confront Daniel the next morning about what he did— shooting him and pretending like nothing happened.
