As I was drinking my water, I realized I almost forgot my newspaper. I quickly got up and then went straight to the door and instead of seeing my paper I saw this handsome fellow getting ready to leave it at my doorstep. 

   I was immediately infatuated with him. I made small talk. He seemed to like speaking to me.  What I found unsettling was that he seemed so comfortable - almost like we've been acquainted.

Alex leads a regular life - for the most part. At least he did before a charming young man shows up to his doorstep.

I'm writing this as I go. This is a small little project I'm working on that started as a prompt for school. Might get mature so I'll put the disclaimer thingy under this.

A criminal mastermind makes a bold move against a wealthy client to put himself in a position to retire in comfort. He has no idea what he's up against when a young widow, desperate to make ends meet, sets her eyes on earning the bounty set on his head. *** Newly widowed housewife Melody Scott needs to earn some major cash, fast. When her bright and busy children learn that a priceless ruby bracelet has been stolen and a six-figure reward is being offered, they convince her to try to do what the police, museum security, and the best private investigators have failed to do. Working against them is a notorious thief who has met people from around the world, but who has never once encountered a woman like Melody Scott. When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family. The Widow, Melody Scott is a 2021 Watty Award Winner! Content Warning: This story does contain depictions of stalking behavior.
