I regret ever listening. I wish I had kept my distance, stayed out of it, and resisted the temptation to eavesdrop on Olivia’s therapy session. I only wanted to understand what that man, Xander, had done to her. I needed to know the depth of the damage he had inflicted upon my wife. Never in my wildest imagination did I think it would be anything like what I heard.

How could he paralyze her like that? How could he trap her, making her lie on top of a grave? And locking her in a catacomb, forcing her to remain alone in that darkness… Did he even realize the psychological destruction he was causing her? Or was that his intention all along? To break her completely?

Now, it all made sense. I understood why she had freaked out in the hospital when she saw a nurse holding a needle, walking toward her. In that moment, the only thing she saw wasn’t a nurse. She saw Xander. She saw him coming at her with that same paralytic agent, intending to trap her again, to render her helpless and trapped in her own body.

Even Luke, the most ruthless gangster I knew, wasn’t capable of something that cold, that malicious. He might have his own darkness, but this, this was on a whole different level. Xander had made her stay among the dead, forced her to confront the idea that she was already dead, even though she was still breathing, still alive. He wanted her to feel like she was already gone, counting her among the dead long before her time.

The thought of it crushed me. I felt like the bathroom walls were closing in on me. The air felt thinner and if I was running out of it.

Tears fell freely, and I didn’t care who might hear me. I didn’t care what anyone might think. I couldn’t stop the raw emotion spilling out. How could he do
