"I don't know what made you think I wouldn't find out you and my husband have been fucking!"
"Ex... excuse me?" Balencia stammers, guilt trembling in her voice. "I would never do such a thing, Mrs. Logan. You've been so good to me."
"No. I know exactly what's been happening between you and Jeff..."
Aliyah's lips curl into a chilling smile. She pauses, letting the silence stretch like a knife's edge.
"The real problem is, you don't know what's been happening between you and Jeff."
With that, Aliyah strides out, her black Louboutins echoing like a countdown, each step deliberate. Balencia stands frozen, dread twisting in her chest, Aliyah's cryptic words lingering like a shadow she can't escape.
__________
Balencia thought dropping out of school to become an au pair would change her life. The Logan family wasn't like anyone she'd ever met-they were different. Their wealth and charm masked something darker, something she couldn't put into words.
She knew better than to mix business with pleasure, but Mr. Logan made her break the one rule she swore she'd never cross. Their forbidden affair spiraled into obsession, and when Jeff grew distant, Balencia began to sense the true danger wasn't heartbreak-it was her survival.
Now, she's trapped in a house full of secrets and lies. Can she escape before it's too late? Or has she already lost more than she realizes?

Bed of Lies
They broke her trust. They broke his mind. But when the past claws its way back, survival isn't enough - vengeance demands blood. Victoria learned how to stay quiet. Grief became her shadow, guilt her constant companion. It whispered in her ear that she should have been the one to die instead. Not her mother. Never her mother. If she had, maybe her father wouldn't have walked away, leaving them to fend for themselves. But silence is a fragile shield-and when the past resurfaces, dragging her into a world she barely escaped, she realizes staying quiet won't save her this time. Xavier learned how to disappear behind scars, behind rage, behind the monster his past made him. Forged by cruelty, built by betrayal, and fueled by rage, he became the kind of man other monsters feared. Scars became his armor. Violence, his language. He doesn't believe in mercy-only vengeance. Especially for the man who made him this way. Victoria was everything he had been taught to avoid - soft yet unbreakable, damaged yet defiant. She had the kind of pain that mirrored his own, a past carved into her bones, a war waged behind tired eyes. She saw through him in ways no one else had ever dared, and he hated it. Hated her. Because she made him feel. He was chaos wrapped in quiet fury, a storm threatening to consume everything in its path. And yet, when she looked at him, she didn't just see the monster - she saw the man who had once fought to hold on to his soul. But love between two broken people is never easy. It's volatile. Cruel. A constant push and pull, neither of them willing to surrender, both too damaged to truly hold on. The closer they get, the more dangerous the stakes become. Yet, for all the ways they fought against it, they kept coming back to each other.Complete

By Mistake
As she stood in front of the grand mirror, adjusting her designer gown, she couldn't help but feel like an outsider. Her adoptive parents, the Lopez, had given her everything - wealth, luxury, and a life of privilege. But it was all a facade. Her step-sister, Elena, had made sure she knew she didn't belong. Her constant jabs and snide comments had worn her down over the years. But she had learned to put on a brave face, to pretend like it didn't hurt. That was until tonight. She had walked into her bedroom, expecting to find her boyfriend, Alexandro, waiting for her. Instead, she found him in bed with Elena. The image was seared into her brain like a hot iron. She felt like she'd been punched in the gut. Her heart shattered into a million pieces. She stumbled out of the room, blindly making her way to the bar downstairs. She downed drink after drink, trying to numb the pain. But it only seemed to fuel her anger. She remember stumbling out of the mansion, into the cool night air. And then, everything went black. When she woke up, she was in a stranger's bed. Panic set in as she scrambled to remember what had happened. The stranger stirred beside her, and she froze. As he turned to face her, she saw the most piercing grey eyes she'd ever seen. And then, it hit her - she had seen those eyes before.

Would she tell Elena that she had slept with her fiancΓ©? Or would she take it as the ultimate revenge, and keep the secret to herself? What about Luis?Complete
