Chapter 11
Chapter 11: The events unfolded rapidly, with the tension between Aidan and I growing as we moved away from the reception at Osprey Lodge. He led me deeper into the thick, shadowed pine trees, a place that seemed to mirror the confusion I was feeling. It was there that Aidan confronted me about the phone I had taken, a decision I had made out of confusion and desperation. I apologized sincerely, explaining how I felt like I was missing pieces of the puzzle. His expression was serious, and he warned me…-

Chapter 8
Chapter 8: The rehearsal for the wedding took place in the Globe, an outdoor theater hidden among the towering pine trees, offering a sense of seclusion and tranquility. However, the atmosphere was anything but serene as it was filled with an unexpected group of guests, each sipping wine and casually nibbling on snacks. What was intended to be an intimate, sacred moment was quickly overtaken by the disjointed nature of the gathering, as people talked loudly and moved around, turning the event into a public…-

Chapter 9
Chapter 9: The rehearsal dinner for Margaret and Aidan’s wedding had a distinct theme: Lobster Night. The atmosphere was lighthearted with checkered red-and-white napkins, and each guest was given a custom-printed bib with the slogan, “MARGARET AND AIDAN’S WEDDING: A CLAWS FOR CELEBRATION!” This small yet amusing detail added an extra layer of charm to the evening, bringing laughter and fun into the celebration. As I took my place at the table, I found myself sitting alongside Tammy, Maggie, Aidan,…-

Chapter 10
Chapter 10: As the evening settled in, the Osprey Lodge’s atmosphere transformed, bathed in the soft, golden glow of candlelight. Guests continued to mingle, now grouped into pairs, exchanging stories, laughter, and the kind of casual chatter that filled the space with an air of false cheerfulness. Amidst the noise and celebration, I slipped Aidan's phone into my lap, excusing myself under the guise of needing a restroom break, although my real intention was far more urgent. Gwendolyn’s cryptic…-

Chapter 7
Chapter 7: After leaving the trailer, Brody noticed my limp and suggested I take the access road to the highway instead of climbing out of the gorge. This longer route meant a delayed arrival at my parents' restaurant, but I appreciated the ease it provided. My arrival didn’t occur until nearly two in the afternoon, and just as I was backing out of the parking lot, I spotted my friend, the bartender, waving at me from the door. I felt a moment of relief, not needing to explain my presence there or the…-

Chapter 2
Chapter 2: The morning began at seven-thirty, with the comforting smell of a full breakfast spread filling the kitchen of the cottage. On the counter, an assortment of freshly baked muffins, bagels, pastries, yogurt, and oatmeal was laid out, along with a large urn of coffee. Grateful for the warmth, I poured myself a cup before stepping out onto the porch. There, my sister, Tammy, sat in a robe, sipping tea as she took in the serene sunrise over the calm lake. Our conversation was light and easy, with…-

Chapter 13
Chapter 13: The lively party atmosphere that had initially been filled with the sounds of a jazz trio shifted drastically into a chaotic electronic dance scene. The pulsating beats of the music now dominated the surroundings, creating a deafening environment where conversations became almost impossible to continue.
