In the second year of their marriage, Angelica Thornton finds out that she's just a walking blood bank for others.
Her husband, Elliot Quigley, has personally fed her steroids, forcing her weight to rise all the way to 160 pounds. This is all just so she can keep providing blood to his older stepsister-slash-first love, Rosie Morris.
He even tells Angelica, "Who on earth would be turned on when they see a fat bitch like you?"
But Elliot also kneels before Rosie's bed in the middle of the night, looking like a kicked puppy.
"Rosie, I've never slept with Angelica before. Please don't abandon me…"
Since then, Angelica's heart has been sealed from love. She decides to get a divorce and vows to shed those pounds.
A long time after that, Angelica stands on the stage, looking absolutely divine. Her figure is now slim, yet she has curves in all the right places.
Elliot's eyes go bloodshot out of regret. He kneels before her on a rainy night, crying, "Angie, you're the one I've always loved!"
Suddenly, a hand shoots out from behind Angelica to lay claim on her slender waist. A pair of eyes can be seen glaring at Elliot coldly.
Elliot is stunned, to say the least. "U-Uncle Dominic?"
…
Dominic Lawson has been emotionally impaired since birth. He himself has an antisocial son named Skye Lawson.
Weirdly enough, Skye loves clinging to Angelica the most.
Dominic thinks that Skye needs a mother in his life. But in the end, he's the one who has succumbed to Angelica's charms.
In the middle of the night, as Dominic pulls Angelica into his arms, he murmurs huskily, "Angie, teach me how to… love."

The morning of our wedding, I happen to discover a voice message saved under Joseph Payne's favorites.
"Honey, I miss you." A syrupy-sweet voice fills the air.
I confront him and demand an explanation, but he doesn't even flinch.
"I won't lie. I made a selfish mistake," he admits calmly. "But it was just a dare she lost. That message was a bet, nothing more."
Their chat history seems to confirm his claim. There's nothing flirtatious. They're just ordinary, day-to-day conversations. Nothing crosses the line.

He doesn't answer. Instead, one finger at a time, he pries my hand off his sleeve.
Then, he leaves.

I, the best thief in my line of work, am being hunted down by a Don, whom I've never met before, on the Internet.
My crime? Well, I've turned down his wedding proposal, so there's that.
