Chapter 1

Chapter 1: Emilia's POV

I watched as my father’s casket was being lowered into the ground. My eyes were dry. I had no more tears to cry, I had shed all the tears while he was at the hospital.

I barely knew anyone in the somber ceremony, maybe that’s why they were more concerned with paying their last respects to my mother Pamela Thompson who had abandoned us for years, rather than me who had lived with the man all my life.

My eyes didn’t leave her for a second, as she played the character of a grieving widow, a handkerchief dabbing at eyes that refused to tear up.

Couldn’t anyone see her for what she was?

As soon as the ceremony was over, I didn’t spend another moment. I didn’t care to shake hands or accept pitying looks. I went straight back home.

Back home, I sat on the edge of my bed, holding a framed picture of my father and me. My fingers traced the outline of his smiling face. He had been my whole world. And now, he was gone.

The door to my room opened moments later, and Pamela majestically walked in.

“We need to talk…” Pamela said, her eyes cold and unfeeling, a glass of wine in her hands.

“I have nothing to say to you. When you’re satisfied, you can leave just as you came. I’ll be fine without you just as we were fine without you.” I replied, looking her straight in the eye.

She didn’t need to try to get in my good books. I was going to be fine here without her and I didn’t need her to play the fake mother role now.

“Oh dear, You’re coming with me, back to California.” Pamela smirked, sipping on the glass of wine.

I let out a bitter laugh. “You’ve got to be kidding me right? This is my home and I don’t have to go anywhere with you.”

I dreaded the idea of going anywhere with this woman. I barely knew her, she left us alone for years and now that Dad was dead, she thought she could come here and boss me around.

That is never happening.

“You don’t get it, do you?” She laughed dryly, her sinister eyes locked in mine. “I don’t have to force you to do anything. You’re going to do it voluntarily and even beg for more instructions.”

What the fuck?

I narrowed my eyes. “Why would I beg you for anything?” I asked.

“Well, for one, your father was very forgetful.” Pamela started, tilting her head.

I clenched my fists, she was lucky she was my mother.

“And in his forgetfulness, he forgot to update his will after we parted ways. So, technically, I own everything after his passing. From the house, to the company...every single thing he left behind. Can you beat that?” She laughed again.

My stomach twisted.

My fists clenched. “No… that’s not possible. He left me everything. The house and the business.”

This wasn’t happening to me.

Pamela laughed again, a cruel sound that made my blood boil.

“If you think I’m lying, ask the lawyers. The bottom line is, you don't have much of a choice. Everything is in my name and so you’ll have to do exactly as I say if you want to at least keep the house.”

My heart sank, this house was the only place that held memories of my dad. And now she was threatening to take it away from me.

Pamela downed the rest of her wine and set the empty glass on my nightstand. “I’ll leave you to pack your bags. We leave for California tomorrow.” Pamela turned triumphantly.

My phone buzzed on the bed. I reached for it, it was Tyler, my boyfriend.

Relief washed over me.

I wondered how I’d explain the situation of moving to California to him. Maybe he could help me find a solution.

I didn’t even bother reading the text. I called him instead.

He picked on the second ring.

“Babe, I…”

“There’s no need to try to beg me,” he interrupted. His tone was flat, emotionless. “The relationship between us is over, I just picked this call so you don’t see me as cruel.”

I blinked, then checked the caller ID again, to be sure I didn't misread the name.

This was Tyler? My Tyler.

“What?” My voice barely made a sound.

“The relationship is over, Emilia.” he repeated.

I felt like the ground had been ripped out from under me.

What does he mean by the relationship is over?

“Tyler, babe. I don’t understand what you’re talking about, what exactly is over. What do you mean?”

“Didn't you get my text?”

“I didn’t read it! Did you just—did you just freaking break up with me over a fucking text? On the day of my father’s funeral?” My voice was tensed but low.

There was a long pause before he sighed. “Listen, don’t make this harder than it needs to be. We’re both adults and if I’m not feeling it anymore, I can always say I’m not.”

My mind spun.

What is he saying? Two days ago he was here. Right here in this room. Holding me. Kissing my forehead. Consoling me.

“But you didn’t feel this way two days ago, Or even yesterday,” I said, my voice shaking. “You were here in my house, in my bedroom and you were your usual sweet self. What changed?”

“I don’t want to talk about anything else. Just let it go and leave for California..”

Just let it go?

Something immediately clicked in my brain.

California?

“Wait… how did you know I was supposed to… Are you breaking up with me because of my mother? Did she get to you?”

Silence

My mind raced, this didn’t make any sense. Why would she make Tyler break up with me?

My breath hitched. “Tyler?”

“Why would you agree to that? You said you loved me, we’ve been together for years and all of a sudden. You’re breaking up with me because of my mom?” I raised my voice.

“Look, just leave for California.”

Click.

The line went dead.

Tyler hung up the phone.

I tried calling him again but he wasn’t picking up my calls. I sat there, staring at the phone, my fingers trembling as I opened the text.

Emilia, I’ve been holding this in for a while, I think it’s time we went our separate ways. I’m no longer interested in being weighed down. So this is it. Don’t take it the wrong way.

I swallowed hard.

I read them once. Then again.

There was nothing I hated more at this moment than Tyler.

He hadn’t even fought for our love, one sign of resistance and he was already out of the door.

I sat there, motionless, as the sun slowly gave way to the moon.

My father was gone, my mother now owned everything and was going to make me live under her thumb and now the only person I felt was still mine had broken up with me—abandoned me.

I felt powerless and trapped.

I wanted to drown out my sorrows, forget that my life was a mess, completely ruined.

So I dropped everything and grabbed my car keys, I hurried out the house before Pamela could see me.

The world as I knew it, was a shit hole, but I wasn’t going to sulk or cry anymore.

I just wanted to lose myself, and I think I know just the perfect place to do that.

Chapter 2: Handsome Stranger
The music was loud but that was the point. Now that I was here, I needed one more thing, locate the bar. I pushed through people on the dance floor, they seemed to be having a good time. What was there to be joyful about? All I needed was alcohol, tons of it, bucket loads even. I motioned to the bartender. “Get me a vodka soda, make it a double please.” Immediately he brought the glass, I downed the liquid in one gulp, feeling the burn slide down my throat. “Sorry to bother but those things sneak up on you. I hope you’re not going to drive?” The bartender asked, eyeing me with mild concern. “Just keep them coming. In fact send down another double vodka soda and a Long Island.” The bartender raised his eyebrows slightly but he nodded. “Okay ma’am. If you say so…” He sent down the drinks and I downed the vodka in a gulp and turned on my seat, drinking the Long Island slowly. I examined the crowd, a bunch of people having fun. Their lives must be so normal

Chapter 3: One-Night Stand
My breath was fast and uneven, with my fingers tangled in the sheets as his body pressed against mine, it was all heat and muscle. I had no idea what to call him, I didn’t know his name and I hadn’t asked, I won’t ask. That was the point, right? There were no strings, no expectations. Just raw, consuming and blinding pleasure. This was more intense than anything I had ever done. His hands were everywhere, he mapped my body with a confidence that clenched my stomach, my thighs tightened around his hips on their own accord. He knew exactly what he was doing and by God, that made me even dizzier. I was no virgin, but this? I had never experienced this. Usually when Tyler and I got in bed, it was straight to business and in a few minutes, we were done. But with this man… There was no fumbling, no quick work just to get it over with and no second guessing. His mouth found my neck, his lips teased me and his tongue flicked against my skin. His teeth lightly graz

Chapter 4: Ethan's POV
I woke up to the soft glow of the sun coming in through the hotel curtains, I stretched lazily over the bed. Last night had been something else, the smell of sweat and sex still lingered in the room. I reached for her but…. She wasn’t there. The space next to me was cold and empty. My eyes blinked open, I scanned the bed and the room, no clothes on the floor. No sound in the bathroom. She was gone. A sharp exhale escaped my lips as I sat up, I ran my hand through my sex scattered hair. I should have seen it coming, she had that air about her like she didn’t want to be held down, she just wanted to enjoy herself but she still got my attention. It pissed me off that I hadn’t even gotten her name. The only thing I had was the memory of last night imprinted in my head, her body beneath mine, the way she responded and how she’d taken everything I gave like she was starved, like she needed it just as badly as I did. Shit! I’m not the kind of guy who gets hung up on a one-

Chapter 5: Emilia's POV
The apartment door wasn’t locked. A bad feeling curled in my stomach as I pushed it open and stepped inside. I expected the usual, to see my bestie Sarah laid back on the couch, scrolling through her phone. It would be hard to say goodbye. But when I got inside, the image was not what I expected. I froze in the doorway. Tyler. Sarah. Their bodies were pressed together and their lips were locked. Hands tangled in each other’s bodies. I felt something slice through my chest. They didn’t even notice me at all. “What the fuck?” I screamed. Sarah jolted, her eyes bulged and guilt filled them. Tyler, on the other hand, just smirked. My blood burned. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me.” I said, my voice was sharp and it shook. Sarah took a step forward. “Babe, it’s not what it looks like…” “Shut it!” I looked over at Tyler. “So, this whole time? You even let my mother pay you off to leave me when you were already screwing my best friend?” Tyler e

Chapter 6: The Parcel
“Good morning, Mr. Brooks” My Driver, also my personal assistant, greeted me and he held the door for me while I entered the car. “Morning Justin, let’s head home first. I need to freshen up and have a proper meal. “Okay Sir” he nodded and walked back to the driver’s seat and started to drive. Justin is the only driver who has lasted a year working with me. Others who had been recruited in the past either tried to steal from me or exhibited gross incompetence. Just then my phone vibrated, I brought it out of my pocket and the screen showed my mother’s name. “What does everyone want from me? Today of all days? “ I sighed, bracing myself for what was to come before picking up. “Ethan” “What do you want mother! Please don’t waste my time. I’m not in the mood for any family talk” I said, my voice laced with annoyance . “Ethan Brooks! Didn’t you see you missed my calls ? I called you all night!” her voice screeched into my ears. Shit! I remembered my phone vibrated the

Chapter 7: The Reveal
“What kind of madness is this? Dad, why did you leave me alone in this dark world?” I muttered to myself, tears forming in my eyes which finally came running down my cheeks.When would I be free? When would I be able to live the life that I want? That I truly deserve! Oh God! I cried internally, tears still flowing down. I quickly cleaned it with the back of my pale right palm. I didn’t want to be seen as a weakling in front of this wicked woman. My mother had gotten up from where she was seated, paced about the room for a while and then said to me. “Freshen up and get dressed. You’re going to meet your soon-to-be in-laws today. You will be staying there until after the wedding.” She stated, with no iota of guilt in her voice. I scowled at her, my heart racing with so much anger.“At least, you will allow me recover fully first beloved Mother!” I snapped at her.“Oh please, there’s no time for all that. I need you downstairs in the next 20 minutes. Don’t keep me waiting.”

Chapter 8: Emilia's POV
The man I slept with a few days ago, the one who made me scream in utmost ecstasy, the one I couldn’t get out of my head despite my situation, was standing in front of me, telling me he’s my brother-in-law?The room began to spin again, can today get any better?“Why did you flee before I woke up the other day” Ethan asked looking enraged with his eyes furrowing with concern, earnestly looking for answers. Still holding onto my wrist, he further asked. “I thought we had such a great time. Was the sex not good enough?”“Didn’t I fuck you so well? Why did you leave!” His tone deepened with his words being laced with quavering authority. “Please it’s enough, stop with the questions. This isn’t the best place and time to have this conversation. Can’t you see I look sick and unwell?” “Please have some empathy and help me to the living room” I responded, sounding breathless with my voice trembling in weakness. Looking deep into my eyes with a sense of compassion and curiosity, he

Chapter 9: Ethan's POV
I sat at the veranda, staring at the graciously manicured garden. Just like how it was before I left home, the grasses were trimmed to perfection.The Gardner came everyday to take care of the garden. It was my favorite spot in the house. The smell of the garden helped calm my nerves, allowing me process my thoughts better. The ray of the sunlight spread a soft glow, and a calm breeze scuffed the dried leaves lying close to the trees. Despite how soothing this felt to my ears, I was far gone from the environment. I was lost in deep thoughts trying to make sense of what had transpired earlier between I and Emilia. Even if I saw it coming when I opened the parcel that was delivered to my house the other day. I wasn’t just fully prepared for it.Since my mother couldn’t get through to me , she thought sending an invitation card of the engagement of my brother and a short note would get me to come home. The shocking revelation was seeing a picture of Lucas and Emilia on the in

Chapter 10: Shattering Delusion
My mind was troubled as I struggled through the hallway leading to a curly staircase. My legs felt so heavy with weakness, making every step a hassle as I staggered my way to the safety of my bedroom. “This is your bedroom Miss Emilia. Please make yourself comfortable and if at any time you need me to do something for you, I’m just one call away Ma’am. Please get all the rest you need” the maid said. “Uhmnn, Thank you…very much. Please what’s your name?” I stammered.“My name is Alice”“Alright Alice, I will sure reach out to you if I need anything. You may leave now. Thank you” I said, sounding so frail and weak, my voice barely above a whisper. As soon as Alice shut the door behind her, I crashed into the bed like a deflated balloon leaving the lights on, shrugging myself under the duvet. I couldn’t get over the feeling of shame and regret threatening to consume me. “Oh God, everything is happening so fast. I have no time to even grieve about the death of my father.”
