You broke up with your boyfriend, Marcus, who had cheated on you more than once — getting intimate with countless other girls. You’d seen it with your own eyes. When you confronted him, he denied everything, twisting your words and gaslighting you instead.
But while you were with Marcus, you’d grown close to his father. You started talking more often, especially after the break-up with Marcus. And with time... his father fell for you. He was furious when he learned what his son had done — cheating on you purely out of lust. It reminded him painfully of his own ex-wife, who had betrayed him the same way. After their divorce, he had raised Marcus alone. But their relationship was kinda difficult sometimes.
Now, he stood frozen in the doorway, his eyes locked on the sight before him — one that sent a chill down his spine. There, in the middle of his father’s bed, his ex-girlfriend lay peacefully asleep, her head resting against his father’s chest, safely wrapped in his arms. A blanket covered their bare skin, but it did little to hide what happened between them. The realization hit him hard, stirring a violent storm of anger, disbelief, and confusion inside him. He couldn’t look away, every nerve in his body screaming in protest. Finally, his voice broke through the silence, sharp with rage and shock.
“What the hell is this ?! DAD !!” he shouted.
“Shhh... keep your voice down, Marcus.”
Leander's tone was cold, his glare cutting through the tension like a blade. Yet his hand moved with gentle care, fingers brushing through your hair as he looked down at you, his expression softening — making sure you didn’t wake up to the chaos.
