On my release day Chapter 1

Two men stood before me, both dressed in black, like the gloomy weather—oppressive, suffocating.

My brother, Alfie, and my childhood friend, Theo. One held a black umbrella; the other leaned against a car door. Their eyes were fixed on me.

They looked profoundly concerned, almost tender. If only they weren't the very ones who'd put me here.

They’d made sure I received "special attention" inside. If it weren't for the constant ache in my body, I might have been moved to tears by their solicitude.

Three years ago, I hurt Ruby.

I held the knife that plunged into her, watching her crumple before my eyes.

She gave me a triumphant smile just before two figures burst onto the scene.

Theo restrained me, wrenching my arms behind my back. Alfie, arriving moments later, kicked me down a flight of stairs in that abandoned building.

I tumbled halfway down before hitting the concrete floor. There was no time for explanations before the cuffs snapped shut.

And so began my life of swill water, filthy drainage ditches, and soiled clothes.

New wounds bloomed daily on my skin; bruises hadn't healed before fresh ones purpled elsewhere.

It took a long time to learn survival – learning to curry favor with the cell block leader, finding a sliver of protection, just to lessen the beatings.

Once, after I’d groveled particularly well, she told me, "You pissed off someone powerful to land here, didn't you? Someone paid good money just to teach you a lesson. Pathetic, getting on the wrong side of people you shouldn't cross."

I knew exactly who she meant. Theo held the most sway. Hurting his beloved Ruby, he truly wanted me to suffer endlessly.

But he was also the one who once shielded me with everything he had.

He once lit up the entire city with fireworks for my birthday. From the highest point, they illuminated the sky all night long.

I ignored them both and walked past. If I could help it, I never wanted to see either of their faces again.

"Now that you're out, stay on the straight and narrow," Alfie said, opening the car door. "Let's go home."

The irony was almost laughable. The man who'd personally delivered me to prison was now holding a car door open, telling me to come home.

On the day I was imprisoned, my parents, rushing frantically to the courthouse, died in a car crash.

My brother, Alfie, was busy securing my conviction. I never saw our parents. Neither did Alfie.

He wasn't my biological brother. He was the boy my parents adopted.

At that moment, hatred consumed me.

Ruby stepped out of the car. She pushed her bangs aside and smiled sweetly.

"Your brother and I are together now. Starting today, I'm your sister-in-law. You've paid for hurting me with three years of your life. I forgive you."

My fists clenched, the urge to tear off her mask of innocence almost overwhelming.

She leaned closer, whispering words meant only for my ears, "Guess why your parents had that accident?"

My eyes widened. In Ruby’s gaze, I saw the devil himself. I shoved her aside and kept walking.

I was terrified I might actually kill her right then.

I could feel them behind me, sense Ruby’s victory radiating off her. Through the rearview mirror ahead, I saw her nestled in my brother's arms, weeping dramatically.

I curled my lips into a smile.

Ruby ran after me, grabbing my hand. To an outsider, it might have looked like concern. "Remember to come to our wedding," she hissed under the guise of a gentle touch. "I want you to see just how pathetic you look right now."

Veiled Submission Novel Cover
7.5
Chapter 1 The blindfold slipped over my eyes, and the world went black just as his deep voice brushed my ear. "Relax, little spy. Let us show you what The Veil really is." My heart slammed against my ribs. The masked party in the Brooklyn warehouse had been loud with moans and music only seconds ago. Now everything narrowed to the heat of three bodies surrounding me in the private room. Strong hands guided me backward until my thighs hit the edge of a leather bench. Fingers-long and confident-traced my collarbone, then dipped lower, brushing the swell of my breasts through the thin black dress. I sucked in a sharp breath as cool ice suddenly pressed against my neck, melting instantly against my flushed skin. A second set of hands slid up my thighs, pushing the hem of my dress higher, exposing lace panties already damp with traitorous arousal. "Who are you?" I whispered, even as my nipples tightened painfully. The man behind me chuckled low, the sound vibrating through my chest. "Tonight, we're the ones asking questions." The ice trailed down between my breasts, leaving a wet path that made me shiver. Then warm lips replaced it, sucking gently on the sensitive skin just above my bra. A soft moan escaped me before I could stop it. My hands were gently pulled behind my back and secured with something soft-silk, maybe. The restraint wasn't tight, but it sent a rush of heat straight to my core. Another hand-rougher, more commanding-cupped my ass and squeezed. "So responsive already," the voice murmured, approval thick in his tone. "Good girl." The praise hit me like a drug. My knees weakened. I hated how much I loved it. The ice moved lower, circling my navel, then lower still until it pressed against the lace covering my clit. I gasped, hips jerking forward involuntarily. The cold burned deliciously against my swollen flesh. Fingers hooked into my panties, pulling them aside. Hot breath ghosted over my exposed pussy right before a warm tongue replaced the ice, licking one slow, torturous stripe from entrance to clit. "Oh fuck-" My head fell back against a hard chest. Strong arms wrapped around me from behind, holding me upright as the tongue between my legs circled faster, sucking lightly. Pleasure coiled tight in my belly. My thighs trembled. I was supposed to be gathering evidence, not melting under their touch. But God, the way they played my body-like they already knew every secret I'd never told anyone-made my mind spin. The man behind me pinched my nipple through my dress, rolling it between his fingers. "Let go, beautiful. We've got you." I came hard, sudden and shocking, a cry tearing from my throat as waves of pleasure crashed through me. My legs gave out completely, but they caught me, holding me between their bodies as I shook. The blindfold stayed on. My breathing was ragged. Then a calm, authoritative voice cut through the haze. "Take it off." The silk was removed. Three devastatingly handsome men stood before me-tall, powerful, radiating raw dominance. The one with icy blue eyes and sharp features stared at me like he could see straight into my soul. The playful one with warm brown eyes and a dangerous smirk licked his lips slowly. The third, broad-shouldered and intense, watched me with barely restrained hunger. The blue-eyed man tilted his head. "Your real name isn't Elena Voss, is it... Nova Kane?" My stomach dropped. They knew. Before I could speak, the door to the private room clicked shut behind us. The blue-eyed man stepped closer, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper. "We have a proposal for you, little journalist. One that involves a 90-day contract... and your complete surrender." My pulse thundered in my ears as his fingers brushed my still-sensitive clit, making me jolt. "Or we can ruin your career right now."
