I've taken into account several comments and in a few days I will repost a revised, improved version of the three chapters. I also want to thank Sarkasmus for his invaluable help and suggestions.
First of all, sorry by the long hiatus. It has been a hard year and real life had to take priority over fantasy.
Chapter 3 is longer than the previous ones and will try to post regularly.
BTW, thanks everybody for your comments, specially the "what reader knows/what character knows" bit. That's something I hadn't thought about and will try to correct it in the next chapter.
Also, I've started another multi-chapter story. Will upload the first chapter soon.
Yes, the story has no resolution. That's because frankly I cannot see a resolution. Was there cheating? Yes, but it was part of the job. Does it matter? Of course. Does it matter to HER? Can a person who turns her tween child into a cold-blooded killer even know what love is? Doubtful. What happens with the newly-orphaned child? Can Jake climb out of the deep well of despair he's trapped now? So many questions, and no idea how to address them.
So, it's a dud. I wanted to remove the story as soon as I saw it published, but there is no removal option in the Authors dashboard.
I know the end may not be the one most people expected, but I think it's the right one.
Now I will continue with the second story.
