Chapter
Chapter 7
Chapter 7 begins with restraint—intentional distance and cautious construction. I won’t let him see where I live. Letting Eddie glimpse that run-down complex, the sagging roof, or—worse—crossing paths with John, would strip away everything I’ve built. So I insist on meeting him in English Village, one of those quaint, manicured corners of Mountain Brook that locals refer to as “villages,” as if this curated affluence needed more charm. It’s the kind of place where everything smells faintly…-

Chapter 6
Chapter 6 begins with Eddie absent. His car isn’t in the garage, and I take Adele out for her walk alone, pretending the hollow in my chest isn’t disappointment. The puppy’s leash is light in my hand, and we head not into Thornfield’s manicured lanes, but downhill toward Mountain Brook Village. This isn’t just about changing scenery—it’s strategy. I want to be seen. By walking Adele where people don’t recognize me as the dog-walker, I’m not just someone with a leash—I’m someone…-

Chapter 5
Chapter 5 begins with a reminder that this isn’t home. “You’re late on your half of the rent,” John says, and I resist the urge to roll my eyes as I hand over the cash I scraped together from pawning one of Mrs. Reed’s earrings. This place was never meant to be permanent—just a landing spot, a temporary fix with someone who knew too much about me. But six months later, here I still am, watching my yogurt disappear into his mouth as he leans against the counter like he owns me along with the…-

Chapter 4
Chapter 4 begins with a question that sounds casual but carries a sharper edge underneath: “Since when does Eddie Rochester have a dog?” Emily Clark, or Mrs. Clark as she insists everyone in the neighborhood say—except when she reminds you that "Emily is fine"—asks it with a smile that doesn’t quite meet her eyes. She’s dressed in her usual athleisure that’s probably more about status than sweat, her thermos monogrammed, her tone sweet but lined with judgment. She knows Adele isn’t mine,…-

Chapter 3
Chapter 3 opens with a sensory contrast as Jane steps into Thornfield Estates, her fingers curled loosely around Bear’s leash. Chapter 3 instantly impresses upon her just how different this world is—the grand arching door, the manicured perfection of the exterior, and the clean marble that greets the muddy paws of the dog she’s walking. Eddie, tall and casual despite the polished setting, welcomes them in without a hint of irritation, his easy smile and warm voice cutting through the formality she…-

Chapter 2
Chapter 2 begins with a jolt—one that leaves me startled on the wet pavement, Bear’s leash tugging insistently in my hand as the sharp scent of rain and engine oil fills the air. The sleek car, now creased and steaming near the curb, looms in my peripheral vision. Chapter 2 forces me to meet the eyes of the man who caused it all—Alex, as he later introduces himself—removing his sunglasses to reveal a concerned expression that seems surprisingly sincere, especially given the circumstances. He kneels…-

Chapter 1
Chapter 1 begins with a gray sky stretched low over the city, rain misting the windshield as I drive toward the gates of Thornfield Estates. It’s a routine trip now—leave behind the cracked sidewalks and water-stained ceilings of Center Point, and step into a neighborhood where even the air feels cleaner. The rain pelts harder as I pull into the Reeds’ circular drive, the kind of place designed more for show than for need. Mrs. Reed greets me at the door, hair immaculately curled, lips painted to…-
