The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family by Adela

Elaine trotted up the stairs to the second floor and tried to open the door to Charlie and Claire's room. She grinned triumphantly when the doorknob twisted open easily. 4 Once she was inside the room, she began to rummage through their stuff. 3
