Detective Steven hesitated, his pencil hovering over the open file as he looked up at me, his brow furrowing as he realized he had just walked face-first into a massive communication minefield. He looked back at Sarah, clearly wondering if he should proceed with the briefing or let me manage the fallout.

I let out a long, ragged breath, rubbing my palm across my face as the exhausting weight of the world settled back onto my shoulders. There was no hiding it now. The truth was out, and trying

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Cornering The Predator

    [SARAH’S POV] Norman sat across from me, looking entirely too smug for a man whose about to be beaten to his game. He had adjusted his cuffs twice since sitting down. He picked up his crystal tumbler of scotch, swirling the amber liquid until the ice clinked sharply against the glass. "So, Sarah," he began, his voice carrying that familiar, oily cadence of a journalist who thought he held the moral high ground. He leaned forward, resting his forearms on the edge of the table. "I have to admit, I was not expecting you inviting me to lunch. I feel like this is going to be good. As a mother yourself, you do understand it's evil to keep a child away from their real parents." I didn't answer right away. I took a slow, deliberate sip of my sparkling water, letting the silence stretch out between us until the smirk on his face faltered, just a fraction. I wanted him to feel the weight of the room. I wanted him to wonder what my next move would be. "Don't get ahead of yourself, Norman

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Master Planner

    We both shared another quiet, lingering chuckle. But as the laughter subsided, the air between us suddenly shifted, turning thick, heavy, and intensely electric. The casual, domestic comfort of the kitchen faded, replaced instantly by the raw, primitive hunger that we had unleashed on the resort terrace just twenty-four hours ago.I didn't want her to leave. I didn't want to go back to an empty bed. "But If you're leaving soon..." I murmured, my voice dropping into a rough, gravelly register that left absolutely no doubt about my intentions. I reached across the marble counter, my long fingers sliding gently around the curve of her waist, pulling her an inch closer. "Then I'm suddenly not very hungry for food."Sarah looked up at me, her breath hitching slightly as she saw the dark, predatory heat flared deep in my eyes. She didn't pull away from my touch, but her hand came up to rest firmly against my chest, her fingers digging lightly into my shirt. "Tyler," she whispered, her v

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Back Home To Peace

    [Tyler's POV]It was past seven in the evening when I stepped into the main living pavilion, the rich, deeply comforting aroma of coconut curry, garlic, and toasted spices immediately enveloped me. But it wasn't just the scent of the food that caught my breath, it was the woman standing near the kitchen island. Sarah had changed out of her sharp corporate blouse. She was wearing a pair of simple, soft denim jeans and a fitted white cotton tee, her hair pulled back into a loose, messy bun with a few stray dark curls framing her face. She was carefully wiping down the marble counter with a dish towel, looking completely at peace in the warm ambient lighting of the kitchen. A sudden, sharp pang of nostalgia struck me squarely in the chest. It looked exactly like old times, back when I would return from a hard day at the production house or the office, and she would be right there, creating a sanctuary out of thin air. A heavy wave of regret washed over me as I realized, with brutal c

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Taking Responsibility

    I slammed both of my palms flat down onto the glass desk with a violent, thunderous force that rattled the brass pen holders and made Chloe jump a foot in the air, her scream cutting off instantly. I stood up to my full height, my massive frame towering over the desk, the sheer, unbridled rage in my chest taking everything I had to control. I pointed a single, trembling finger directly at her face, my dark eyes boring into hers with a lethal promise. "That is the last time," I growled, my voice vibrating with the raw, protective instinct of a father pushed to his absolute limit, "that I will ever, ever hear you say such things about my daughter. Do you understand me? Leena is family. She is my daughter. She is a Rider. And if you ever breathe a single syllable of that toxic trash near her again, losing your bedroom at my house will be the absolute least of your concerns." Chloe swallowed hard, the arrogance draining from her face as she realized she had crossed a line I would nev

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Not Anymore Spoilt Little Sister

    [Tyler's POV] "Miss Rider, please! You can't just walk in here without an appointment! Mr. Rider is busy." I could hear my secretary, Evelyn, shouting from behind my door. I didn't lift my head from the legal briefs spread across my desk immediately. I took a slow, deliberate breath, closing my eyes for a single second to brace myself. The moment I caught the sharp, aggressive scent of Chloe’s expensive French perfume, I already knew exactly what had transpired. Sarah had gone to the house like she said she would, and the storm had officially made land fall. I raised my eyes, resting my elbows on the polished glass surface of my desk, and gave Evelyn a calm, reassuring nod. "It’s alright, Evelyn. Leave us alone. Close the doors behind you and clear my schedule for the next thirty minutes." Evelyn looked immensely relieved, nodding hurriedly before retreating and pulling the heavy doors shut with a soft, decisive click. The silence that followed was thick, suffocating, and vibrati

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Don't Play Stupid Games

    "Keep your mouth shut, and put those hands back down" I commanded, my voice dropping into an icy, authoritative tone that completely cut her off. I pointed a firm finger at her, my blue eyes locking onto hers with a fierce intensity that made her stumble back a half-step. "I am not done speaking. You will keep your mouth shut and your ears open, Chloe, because I am only going to say this to you once, and I have absolutely no intention of repeating myself." She stared at me, shocked into a stunned, trembling silence. "I can take whatever pathetic, childish shit you throw at me," I continued, stepping into her face, my voice vibrating with rage. "I have the skin for it. But the one thing I will absolutely never tolerate under any circumstances is a thirty-one year old woman putting her psychological aggression on a nine-year old child." Chloe’s eyes flickered with a sudden, defensive panic. "What... what is that supposed to mean?" "Don't play stupid with me," I snapped. "We kno
