Introduction
私は突然、読心術に目覚めた。
すると婚約者牧口 健一(まきぐち けんいち)の心の中で冷笑が響いた―彼はすでに銃手を手配し、結婚式の教会で私を「葬る」つもりだった。
さらに嫌悪すべきことに、口では「君は牧口家の夫人になる」と言いながら、心の奥では義母の足利 桃枝(あしかが ももえ)に執着していた。彼女は亡き父の未亡人で、彼よりわずか数歳年上にすぎない。
結婚式まで残り三日。私はもう泣き叫ぶことも、愛を乞うこともやめた。
そして警察長官だった初恋の人粂田 秀洋(くめだひ でひろ)に連絡した―「私の結婚式の主役になってくれる?」
Chapter 1
私は突然、読心の技能に目覚めた。
そして偶然、婚約者牧口健一が結婚式の教会に銃手を潜ませ、私を殺そうとしている心声を読んでしまった。
結婚式当日、私は警察長官の初恋の人粂田秀洋と協力し、彼を牢獄へと送り込んだ。
正月の夜、牧口健一はようやく家に戻ってきた。
玄関に立つ彼からは安酒の刺すような匂いが漂い、肌の隅々まで見知らぬ女の香水が染みついていた。
彼が部屋に入ると、私はソファに座り、静かに本を読んでいた。
彼は口元を歪めて笑い、両腕を広げて抱きしめようとした。
だが私は、冷静に、意図的に彼を押し返した。
【また不機嫌か?どうしてこの女はいつも些細なことで怒るんだ。】
それが夫牧口健一の心声だった。
私はなぜか、偶然読心の技能に目覚めてしまった。
【やはり桃枝は優しくて気が利く。どうしてあの死んだ親父があんな女を娶れたのか理解できない。俺の婚約者はわがままで、俺の苦労を全く分かっていない。】
その瞬間、私の脳は真っ白になり、過負荷のプログラムのように停止しかけた。
桃枝、初名は足利桃枝、彼の亡き父の妻だった。
父が彼女を娶ったとき、牧口健一はすでに二十歳だった。
だが足利桃枝は当時二十五歳で、彼よりわずか五歳年上にすぎなかった。
そのとき彼はただ「義母だ」と言った。
そのとき私は、牧口健一の父が荒唐無稽だと思っただけで、牧口健一が父親以上に異常だとは知らなかった。
彼は義母に対して、ずっと前から歪んだ欲望を抱いていたのだ。
「健一、まずはシャワーを浴びてきて。」私は冷たく言った。視線は彼の首筋に隠しきれないキスマークに注がれていた。だが彼は私の視線や冷淡さに気づかなかった。
「ごめん、蛍。」彼は低く言った。「家族の商売のために、こういう付き合いは必要なんだ。あの商人たちは宴席に女がいるのを好むから。」
「でも安心して、誰とも関係を持ったわけじゃない。俺の妻は君だって分かっている。」
そう補足した彼の言葉は、私の心に刻まれた血まみれの傷を癒すどころか、さらに抉った。
私はふと疲れを覚えた。
この温厚そうに見える男の心が、実はどれほど醜く汚れているのか理解できなかった。
目を閉じ、深く息を吸い込む。
私を呑み込もうとする痛みに必死で耐えた。
だが彼の心声は止まらなかった。
【蛍は本当に面倒だ。いつも疑ってばかりで、男に愛人が何人かいるなんて普通だろ?みんなそうしている。】
【でも、もうすぐ彼女から解放される。結婚式の教会に銃手を潜ませて殺してしまえばいい。】
【それから敵対家に罪を着せれば、岩立家の海岸の利権も手に入り、さらに桃枝と永遠に一緒にいられる。】
私は思わず顔を上げて彼を見た。
だが彼の表情は驚くほど平然としていた。
今この瞬間、心の中でこんなにも邪悪な声を響かせているとは思えないほど、微塵も動揺がなかった。
ちょうどそのとき、桃枝の屋敷のメイドが駆け込んできた。
「牧口夫人が倒れました!」
「すぐに行く。医者を呼んでくれ。」牧口健一はそう言って立ち上がった。
私の返事を待つこともなく、彼はすでに玄関へ向かっていた。
メイドが彼の耳元で何かを囁いたが、私は聞き取れなかった。
だが彼の心声は、はっきりと私の頭に響いた。
【桃枝が妊娠しただと?最高だ、俺の子だ。】
私はもう迷わなかった。一生かけても二度と掛けないと思っていた番号に電話をかけた。
粂田秀洋(くめだひ でひろ)―日本警察庁長。
彼の父親は政府の政治家でもある。
彼はかつて私の初恋だった。ただ、その恋が始まる前に、私は家族のために 牧口健一との政略結婚を強いられた。家族にさらなる利益をもたらすために。
「来週、教会で結婚式を挙げるの。でも主役を新しくしようと思っているの。どうかしら。」
私はできるだけ声を平静に保った。
時間が何を変えるのか、私には分からなかった。
だが電話の向こうの彼は、一切迷わなかった。「蛍さん、それは私の光栄です。」

Letters to a Dark Prince
Thrown into Isteros Academy—a world of old money, blood money, and cruel social games—she's an outsider by birth and an afterthought by design. Her sister Solyn is the school's untouchable queen and Mara is her favorite target.
Everyone expects Atreus to treat his fiancée’s scholarship sister like everyone else does—as if she doesn’t matter.
Instead, his dorm room sits directly across from hers, close enough that she can see his light go out at night. Some nights, he climbs the old maintenance trellis just to check on her. He teaches her chess. He shows up exactly when something's gone wrong—and never once asks to be thanked for it.
"Don't fall in love with one piece," he warns her, over a board neither of them treats like a game anymore. "It punishes the person who only sees half of it."
Mara doesn't understand why the boy who's supposed to make her life harder keeps quietly making it easier—not until she realizes the anonymous stranger she's been writing to every week already has a name.
His.
He doesn't know he's writing to her, either.
By the time they find out, it's too late to stop what's already happening. Far too dangerous for anyone to find out.
In an empty studio, in the middle of a rainstorm, she asks him: 'Am I the kind of girl who kisses a boy engaged to my sister?'
He doesn't answer.
So she asks: 'What are we?’
He told her not to fall in love with one piece.
She fell anyway.
And he was never far behind.

Filled, Owned, and Fucked by My Best Friend’s Father
He was supposed to be off-limits. Untouchable. The kind of man you only fantasize about when you’re alone in the dark with your hand between your thighs.
But the night I caught him eating another woman alive by the pool, I couldn’t look away.
And he knew it.
The moment his dark eyes locked on mine through the glass, I became prey. His filthy smirk promised one thing—he saw me touching myself to him, and he wasn’t about to let me forget it.
Now, every time I’m in his house, I can’t breathe without thinking of his mouth between my legs.
I left my cheating boyfriend behind, only to fall into something even more dangerous:
a man who could ruin me, break me, and make me beg for his cock while his own daughter sleeps in the next room.
