Monster-in-Law Christmas: OTT Shorts

By Audrey Halliwell

Three days. That's all Cillian asked me to survive at his childhood home. But stepping into the Brown estate meant stepping into a gilded cage where Cillian's ex-wife, Bea, was the favored daughter, and I was the interloper in a defiant red dress.

His mother, Mary, played her hand perfectly. Matching emerald sweaters, family albums, and ice-cold dismissals were just the opening salvo. When her social snubs escalated to professional ruin, the stakes became deadly: my beloved art therapy program for sick children would vanish unless I ended my relationship with Cillian tonight.

Mary can strip away my career, but only if I convince Cillian I never loved him. He thinks I ran because I couldn't handle his family. I know the truth. Now I must decide: sacrifice the man I love to save the work I built, or stay and watch his mother systematically destroy both of our futures.

OTT Shorts are designed to jump right into the dramatic plot.
