Summary
There it is again, the light. She blinks again, the muscles weak and her eyes squint. She feels like a flower chasing sunlight, forcing her eyes to fully open.
Hurts, she thinks. She tries to move and nothing. Her arms and legs refuse to cooperate, even her mouth is committing the ultimate betrayal. Her eyes blink slow as she fights with them against the cascading light assaulting her eyes. It’s so bright. She’s been in the darkness for longer than she thought.
She groans.
“Rebecca?”
Ted?

Summary
He hums and looks closely at her. There’s a lovely pink blush on her cheeks, and she bites her lip and looks away at the weight of his gaze on her.
“Antsy? Or somethin’ else?” he asks, a knowing smile on his face when she squirms.
“It’s this book,” she says in exasperation. “It’s quite a bit steamier than I anticipated and well…”

Summary
For a strange, suspended moment it almost feels like she’s watching it happen to someone else.
Then the rest of the world rushes in all at once.The roar of an engine.
A horn – maybe hers.
The violent snap of her seatbelt locking against her chest.
The sound of Ted promising he’ll wait outside for her.
The headlights fill the windshield.Her hands move before she decides and the car moves with them and she gets almost a bit of the road between them, but she knows it's not enough.
There’s just enough time for one silly thought to flicker through her mind.I’m going to be late for dinner.
Then metal crashes into metal.

Summary
You don’t break all at once.
Sometimes it’s a skipped lunch. A slammed door. A piece of art that looks different than the one before it.
As Scarlett tries to move through challenging emotions, Rebecca watches closely, unsure where the line is between helping and hovering. Rebecca has helped Scarlett navigate panic attacks and restraining orders, but this quiet unraveling is something else entirely.
All Rebecca can do is what she's always done - keep showing up, even when she doesn't have the answers. And hopefully Scarlett will learn what it means when family stays.

Summary
The knock on Rebecca’s office door is habitual. Ted’s done this a hundred times before, in the morning with biscuits, in the evening with stories about his day and it is always the same.
Except today, it isn’t.
He pushes the ajar door open, expecting Rebecca to be immersed in paperwork or emails, a tea cup on her desk but the sight stops him cold.
She isn’t alone.
Matthijs is there, standing close as she gathers her belongings, laughing at something he’s said. The sound hits Ted like a sucker punch.
Rebecca’s laugh has never hurt before.
This is a story about how two years apart changed Ted and Rebecca's bond.

Until today.

Summary
They set rules for a reason. Keep it simple, casual, easy.
But neither of them are good at following rules—only breaking them.
What starts as one reckless night becomes an addiction. Filthy texts across crowded rooms. Locked doors and stolen moments.
They should have known it wouldn't stay casual for long.

Summary
He yanks her wrist up, pinning it to the wall next to the other one, and leans in closer. The rough brick scrapes against her shoulders through her dress as he presses his weight against her.
"Well then, might as well settle in, because we're not finished talking."
"Yeah," a voice cuts in from down the hallway, calm but carrying an edge that makes them both freeze. "You are."
Rebecca's head snaps toward the sound.
