Someone had been ringing the doorbell for a long time now, and no one answered it, so I went to check it out myself. It was a delivery guy.
"Hi", I said.
"Good day, ma'am; we're to deliver this to an Ivy Cowper?".
My cheeks flared, he didn't just call me that, did he?
"That will be me", I said.
"Okay, it came in from Mr. Luther Cowper; please sign this here", he said, handing me a pen.
Luther? Why is Luther sending me something when he can just get it here himself?
I signed it anyway and took the box from him, thanked him, and went back inside.
I dropped the box on the couch.
What if it wasn't from Luther? What if it was from Laura and it was a bomb or something??
No, Laura wouldn't go that far to kill me, at least not yet.
Or so I think.
I opened the box and paused in surprise
