Falling For My Ex's Dad by Oma Green

Chapter 1

Clairessa’s POV

Chapter 1: Good Girl Gone Bad

The night couldn’t have been better. I had just graduated at the top of my class in software engineering and landed my dream job at Storm Innovations–the company owned by my boyfriend Adrian’s father. Everything in my life was finally coming together. I stood outside Adrian’s apartment, holding a bottle of champagne, excited to tell him the good news and celebrate.

I had planned every detail of the night in my head. We would toast to our future, laugh about the struggles of the past few years, and maybe even talk about taking the next big step in our relationship. I had been dreaming of this moment for weeks, and now that it was finally here, I felt like nothing could ruin it.

But as I reached for the door, my excitement shifted. The door was unlocked.

Adrian was always so careful about security. He’d warned me so many times about locking up and double–checking the door whenever I left. It was one of the things I teased him about, calling him “paranoid.” So why was the door wide open now?

“Adrian?” I called out, stepping inside.

Silence.

Something felt wrong. The living room was tidy, as usual, but the air felt heavy, like the calm before a storm. My heart began to beat faster, but I told myself I was overreacting. Maybe he’d just forgotten to lock up in his rush to get ready for our celebration.

Still holding the champagne, I made my way down the hallway toward his bedroom. My heels clicked softly against the hardwood floor, the only sound in the quiet apartment. That’s when I heard it.
