BAILEEBy the time we pulled up to my brother’s house, one way too large for only one person, Brinley’s forehead had cooled, and she was dozing in and out of sleep. I had held her to my chest tightly, terrified that we would be in a car accident and she would be sent flying without a car seat. “Baby, we’re going to stay in Uncle Ben’s house for a little bit,” I whispered, wanting her to know where she was even though she was falling asleep. It would be terrifying for her to wake up in a strange place in the morning.“Uncle Ben?” She asked, her excitement muffled by her exhaustion. “Let’s get you into bed, and we’ll see Uncle Ben soon,” I said as Bash unlocked the door and gestured for us to enter first. The house looked sterile; not a single thing was out of place. It would probably bother him to see the kind of mess a toddler can make within a few minutes. Ignoring my concern for invading Ben’s space, I walked down the hallway, checking multiple doors, before I found a guest room

ALEXANDERI was a fucking idiot. Since the day I met her as a kid, Bailee Evans had been the only one who could get to me. Whenever she was around, all my control snapped. Now, I had to deal with the fallout of my actions once again. Only this time, it was worth it because it was for her. After what I did to her when we were younger, the way I hurt her, I deserved everything about to come my way. My mugshot would be on every tabloid and news channel first thing in the morning, and I would take it with a smile.Still, even if I damaged my reputation and lost clients, she was worth it. She deserved to have someone fight for her.“How did you get out of jail?” Bailee asked, crossing her arms over her chest as she popped her hip out. At least she still had a fire in her after everything she had been through. I used to love bickering with her and hearing her sass. We would banter back and forth until I couldn’t take it anymore and had to lean in to kiss her, to press my body against

BAILEEMy phone ringing startled me awake, though I hadn’t intended to pass out on the couch. Usually, when Brinley was sick, I would sleep in her room to ensure she was okay.I jumped for the phone to keep the ringer from waking Brinley.It had been pointless, though, because I cursed loudly as my knee connected with the coffee table, and my arms flailed as I tumbled off the couch and onto the floor with a 'thud.' My vision was still blurry from sleep, and the room spun from the quick movement, but I managed to grab my phone and answer the call, unable to see the number on the screen as I blinked rapidly to moisten my eyes. “Hello,” I said breathlessly, rolling onto my back and pulling my knee up to my chest. “Ms. Evans,” A man said, and my eyes shot open as a jolt of excitement went through me at hearing my maiden name. I had no clue who it was, but it was the first time since the hearing yesterday that I had been called Ms. Evans without me having to correct them to it from Mrs.

ALEXANDER I scowled as I stared at the back of the bottle, reading the dosage as Bailee turned on the bath in the adjoining bathroom. “How much do I owe you?” She asked, and I looked up to see her leaning against the door frame, staring at me stone-faced. “For the medicine, how much was it?” “You don’t need to pay me back.” “Well, I don’t want to owe you anything.” She snapped, and I lowered the bottle to my side. The little girl was sitting on the bed, playing with the unopened boxes, and I felt uneasy. I was unsure if she should be playing with them or if I should take them away. If I did, would she just start screaming again? “You don’t owe me. It’s a gift.” I said, and she held her hand out, palm up, careful not to touch me when I placed the bottle in her hand. Pushing off the door frame, Bailee grabbed the syringe from the box on the bed, opened the bottle, and filled it without needing to read the back like I had. She knew exactly how much her child needed off the t

My knee bounced as we sat in the waiting room. I was nervous, but not because of my meeting with Mr. Collins.I was nervous about giving Alexander the apology he was owed. He had hurt me beyond belief when we were younger, but the way I had treated him today was unacceptable. Over the past twenty-four hours, he had been kind, stood up for me, brought me to a safe place to stay, and got medicine for my daughter.He deserved an apology, and I had been so caught up in my head that I wouldn't have realized it if it weren't for the damn jalapenos. After Brinley’s fever had been broken, I brought her into the kitchen to make breakfast, and the guilt I had been feeling tripled.On the kitchen island sat a take-out bag with several containers. One with bacon and sausage, another with hashbrowns and scrambled eggs. The last sizable take-out box had biscuits, and my mouth watered when I realized he had ordered a side of sausage gravy to go with it. Spreading them out onto the counter, I smil

Entering through the parking garage, I took my private elevator directly to my office, wanting to avoid passing Caleb in the main lobby, where I had Nathan seat him. He could have waited on my floor, but I didn’t want him to overhear anything he shouldn’t or go snooping. “Mr. Kingston!” Nathan greeted as he stood from his desk quickly. “What is the plan?” “Breathe, Nathan. There isn’t one.” I said calmly as I pushed the door open to my office. Nathan sputtered, following me in. A hot cup of coffee sat on my desk, still steaming, and I knew he had rushed to get it for me as soon as he saw the light above my elevator turn on. “Caleb Johnson is not a threat. He's just an annoying fly that won’t go away no matter how many times you swat at it.”“So, you're just going to let him in?” Nathan looked over his shoulder at the door to my office, and I smiled confidently as I nodded because, this time, I wasn’t going to just swat him away. I was going to crush him. I was angry after what he

I held my breath as the housekeeper pushed open the hotel room door. The woman gave me a pitying look as I slipped her the cash I had promised in exchange for her help getting into my husband’s luxury suite. Caleb had been so rushed for his ‘urgent business meeting’ that he had forgotten his laptop. Like the loving wife I was, I raced over to grab it for him. I had made it my goal to make his life at home as easy on him as possible by helping where I could with the cooking and cleaning since he worked so hard to provide for us. It was never good enough for him, but little things like bringing him his laptop would surely make him happy.Only I had frozen in horror when I saw the messages popping up on his computer from his phone. The smiling, half-naked woman stared back at me. I could see her nipples through her lace bra, and she had one hand down between her legs, covering herself.His assistant. Lorna: I got your gift. I’m at the Rosewood Hotel. Don’t make me wait too long.Ca

“Bailee!” Caleb yelled as I threw open the door and rushed down the hall.I needed fresh air. It felt like the walls were closing in on me, and I could hear my blood pumping in my ears.“Bailee, would you stop for a minute?” The sound of my name on his lips as he zipped his pants made me feel queasy, but I held it down. A hand wrapped around my forearm, and I was yanked to a stop just before the elevator. “No!” My scream came out in a hoarse sob. “No! Get off of me, you lying piece of shit!” The rage and venom behind my words made him release me immediately, but he stayed close as he glared down at me. I took a step back, shaking my head at him. “You don’t get to touch me. You don’t get to ever fucking touch me again!” The elevator dinged behind me, and the doors opened, but I didn’t pay any attention to the people getting off until I heard them speak. “Bailee! Lower your voice! That is no way to speak to your husband!” “Mom?” Caleb asked, and I turned to face Helen and George
