Rage fills me as I leave my first court ordered therapy session. I spent the entire hour staring at the woman they assigned me to. Of course, the judge would assign me a woman. What a fool. I will have her wrapped around my finger before the end of the six months.

LeAnn DeMarco is a skinny woman with pale skin, thick black hair that she pulls back into a tight bun at the nape of her neck. It stretches the skin on her face, making her look perpetually angry all the time. Not a flattering look

She is dressed in mousy browns that made her look much older than she is. She wore no jewelry except a small cross necklace. 1 bet she is single with live cats. I laughed to myself as she studied me while I studied her.

Seducing her will be a breeze, I am bisevaal. It doesn’t matter to me, I will bend her to my will. This will be fun.

to hunch? Ethan asks as I get into his car.

“Are you ready

Oh, my sweet Ethan. He was an easy mark. One that in the end I couldn’t walk away from. He believes every word I say. He is rich and that benefits me. The fact that he is a demon in bed makes me stay.

Marrying him fell in line with my plans to make Quinn’s life miserable. Finding out. I was pregnant again after Quinn left was… not ideal… however, it works to solidify my plans for Ethan. The fact that Logom could his or Quinn’s works even better for me.

Pitting the two of them against each other has been an absolate delight.

“Let’s go home. We can have Magda make something for us.”

Ethan looks over at me like he wants to argue, so I slide my left hand over his right thigh. As expected, his eyes shift to where my hand is. To my surprise, he removes my hand from his thigh, then starts the car.

Twill d

I drop you off at home. Then I need to go into the office.”

This is unlike him. Normally when I use seduction to get my way, he falls for it. I study his face as he drives home. His jaw is clenched, which means he is angry. I thought I had cured his anger problems.

Looks like we will need a therapy session tonight.

“Ethan, baby, what is wrong? Is something at work bothering you?”

His eyes flick to mine for a second before he glances back at the road. However, instead of answering me, he keeps driving. I have a feeling he is waiting until we get home before he says anything

Things between us have been tense since my bail hearing. They have exposed everything I have done over the last two years. All the calls, the recent gifts I had sent to Quinn, and me showing up at Quinn’s place to seduce him

1 had no intention of ever letting Ethan know about any of that. Now my plans need to be adjusted. I can see now that I will need to give him the assurances that be needs to get his complete compliance again

Ithan has been talking to Evan more than normal and that I can’t stand. Their relationship was tense since well-before Ethan became my patient. Lately, Evan has

been putting pressure on him to leave me.

I want to know why. What has Evan been telling him? Why now?

The car slowing down makes nie look up from my lap. We are pulting into the driveway of our home. I have loved this house since we found it. It is very modem All the stope and glass. It is right at the edge of the cliffs with a private beach below,

Out of everything that I have accomplished, finding this house has been the best.

Than pulls the car into the covered carport at the side of the house that gets out of the car, slamming the door behind his he does. Well, this is going to be fine, 1

ugh to hyself before I open the passenger door.”

He is in front of me as I get out of the car, I suck in a breath when his hand close over my shoulders then slams me back against the car. There is dark rage in his eyes as he stares at me. His chest in heaving as he struggles to reign in that anger.

“Why, Dee? Why did you do it?”

“Do what?” I ask

I know what he is referring to, but I feign innocence. Ethan is a s**er for the sad innocent act. It worked when I first met him and has continued to work every day

since then

“Why did you call him all those times? Why did you go to see him when we first came back here from Europe? What does he have over you?”

Ah, his insecurities over Quinn. The seed I planted in him long ago had gone deep and took root into something beautiful. He will believe anything I tell him about Quinn

“I wanted to tell him about Logan. He hung up on me every time before I could. Quin hates me for choosing you over him. Ethan, my love, please don’t be angry with me.”

not to be angry. A growl o frustration leaves his lips before his mouth crashes down on mine in a punishing, almost painful

I watch as his eyes soften as I bet him not to kiss. Here is my possessive lover.

Ethan’s possessiveness has always excited me. The way he gets so jealous of any man who looks at me is something I never want to change. I adore how he has staked his claim on me, even though I can never remain faithful to him or anyone else.

That just isn’t how I am built, Monogamy is not for m

His hand on my a**makes me press my body closer to his. Soon my skirt is bunched up around my hips, my panties are pulled to the side as he is my leg up his hip. I help him free himself from his pants, then mean loadly as he slides deep inside me.

*You are only mine, Dee. Do you hear me? Ethan growls in my ear.

“Yes, only yours, my love.”

Ethan lifts me up, m 1 wrap my legs around his waist. He then sidesteps enough so that my back is against the back passenger door. He lets out a grunt, then places both of his hands on the hood of the car. Once he has me where he wants me, he begins to truly f**k me.

Hard, fast, and without remorse.

Just like I want.

Yet, in the back of my mind, I can’t help but think about Quinn, Even as Ethan thrust hard and deep within me, memories of the way Quinn f**ed me nun through my head. Between the way Ethan is giving me exactly what I want and memories of another man, my pleasure is heightened.

“Oh, baby, I can feel how close you are. Do you want me to make you come?”

That does it. He thrusts hard once more, and I am sent flying over the edge. His o**m folloys right after mine as my walls milk his c***

“I am only yours,” I lie to him in **the aftermath of sex.

Ethan rewards me with a smile, then he kisses me tenderly before he leads me into the house. We both need a shower before he is to go into the office. By the time he leaves, after another fierce round of sex in the shower, I am exhausted.

As I lay in bed for a nap, I can’t help but wonder if I am capable of loving someone. The kind of love that my mother had for my father. No matter how badly he treated her, she loved him with every fiber of her being.

I cared deeply for Quinn, but I didn’t really love him. Not the way I pretended to and most definitely not in the way he needed me to. It shocked me when he asked me to many him after I told him I was pregnant. A pregnancy that I had no intention of seeing through.

Ethan is the closest thing to low I think I have ever been. Even though I lie, cheat, Sometimes late at night when we are lying in bed, when I know he is asleep, I feel a little guilty for all the things I have done behind his back. Then, when morning comes. I go about my day like none of the guilt was ever there.

Am I a good person?

No, I certainly am not a good person.

Since Annora had to go into the hospital for an emergency surgery for one of her patients, I spent the morning in my home office going over the designs for the outreach center. As always, Andrea has followed our visions and exceeded them with her fantastic design.

I send her a quick email telling her 1 will show the designs to Aaron tomorrow. If he agrees with me that what she has now is perfect, we will send the plans to the city for approval. My day is going so well that I decide to run to the store for something special for dinner

However, as I am heading towards the door, my cell phone rings. It is my lawyer. I hope this is good news regarding the lawsuit Dionna filed against me. He

petitioned the court to have DNA run before the scheduled dates.

Evan McAllister gave a sworn statement stating that he saw his brother with Dionne before the time we split up. He gave times and dates for when Ethan started sering her as a therapist to the day that he caught them in the act

My lawyer also got a judge to sign off on obtaining Dionne’s medical records from the abortion clinic. The abortion happened exactly when the nurse who called her stated. With all that evidence against her claims, there is reasonable doubt that I am not Logan’s father.

“What is the verdict on the petition, Vincent?”

“The judge on the case called me and Dionne’s attorney to his chambers this morning. Her reviewed the evidence 1 presented. He was disgusted. I could tell by look on her attorney’s face that he didn’t know about any of it.”

judge going to compel a DNA test?”

“Yes. He gave her lawyer a stern waming, then told him to have Dianne and Logan at the designated laboratory by nine on Monday moming. I tried to call you will all this yesterday, but it went to voicemail”

“Yesterday was chaos with last-minute charity details. I am sorry, Vincent.”

He chuckles, “don’t worry about it. The lab he chose is the same we used for the test we did with you and Grace. That works well, but he has ordered a fresh sample from you to ensure there are no questions with the results. He also ordered Ethan to be tested too.”

“That part I hadn’t thought of, nice,”

“See you at the lab on Monday, Quinn. Have a good weekend.” he ends the call

I smile at the good news, then head to the store. Stuffed mushrooms sound good for dinner. Once I get everything that I need, I head home. When I walk into the penthouse, I can hear Annora talking to someone. Her voice is coming from the kitchen

When I walk into the kitchen, I see she is on the phone while she puts some groceries away. From the anger in her voice, I would hate to be the person on the other end of the call. I sit the bag in my hand on the counter then unload it onto the counter.

“No, Leita, I will not talk to Max about coming home.”

Oh boy. The cheating sister-in-law, I ease around her to open the cabinet where I store my cutting board, then walk back to the island counter to start dinner preparations. I prep the mushrooms while she listens to Leita. From the red flush of iger on her face, I am expecting her convenation to end soon.

“Look, you f**d Jake, not just one, but repeatedly. What did you expect to happen when Max found out? Did you really expect him to forgive you, then wait

und to see whose baby you were having?,

I cringe when I hear a thrill screaming **b through the phone.

“Do you even love my brother?” Annie pouses as she listens to Leita. “Then why did you hurt him like that? No, don’t tell me at all. Tell him when he calls you. Until then, don’t call me again. I will not play middleman for you.”

With an angry growl, she ends the call, then throws her phone onto the counter. I wipe my hands on a dish towel, then walk to her. I massage her very tense neck muscles

„ right there,” she sighs in relief.

“Have they gotten the results of the DNA test?”

She nods her head as I continue to rub my thumbs into her muscles.

“It isn’t May’s or Jake’s baby. She cheated on Max with a coworker. Then, when her blado s**d during the first trimester, she started sleeping with Jake while Max was putting in long hours to get ready for the baby. It has been something he has wanted for so long. To finally start a family with her. Now, that is all gune. Lorelai

filed his divorce papers yesterday afternoon when he got the results.”

I remove my hands from her neck, spin her around, then serap my arms around her. She lets out a shuddering breath as she buries her face in my chest. My heart goes out to Max. His experience is different, but the loss in similar.

“Is he at your place?”

She nods her head.

“Then go grab your purse, I will put my mushrooms up, and we will go be where we need to be ”

The look she gives me lets me know that is exactly what she needs right now. To be with her brother. To help soothe his broken heart. Nothing will wound, but knowing he isn’t alone will help.

ever head that

I busy myself with putting the mushrooms in a plastic storage container, then putting them in the refrigerator while Annie rushes out of the kitchen to grab ber purse. The tired look on her face is gone when she comes back and waits for me in the doorway. The anger is still there, though.

“Your brother is lucky to have you as a sister. Come on. Let’s go. We can pick up dinner for the three of us on the way”

Annie smiles at me, then holds her hand out for me. I will gladly sacrifice my evening plans for her family. After all, they will be mine soon enough as well

The car ride will give me a chance to update her on the lawsuit.
