only one wins his heart
Synopsis:
Sofia Reyes gave everything she could, her life, her loyalty, her future, and even her health to her mate, Damien Hale. However, he gets rid of her without giving it a second thought, because of five painful miscarriages and a threat that she would die during another pregnancy. Sofia was kicked out of the house to make room for his ex-mate and their child.
Shortly after when her life is gradually rebuilding, Sofia collapses and discovers that she is once again pregnant to realize that the child she believed to be dead survived. Sofia accepts this news excitedly and begins planning her life.
But Damien on the other hand experienced betrayal after betrayal. His ex-mate lied. The heir isn't his. And the sickness which was slowly killing him was not a natural incident, but caused by his ex-mate, who had been feeding him poison for months.
Things take a suprise twist as Damien runs into Sofia again, not as his ex-mate, but as a rival… a lawyer defending his mate.

Chapter: The Place They LostAs she walked through those doors as a bride, crying alone in those hallways, waiting for Damien at night, begging him to choose her, packing her things after the divorce, the pain obviously lived here .“You okay”?. Damien asked softly because he noticed he was quiet and her mood changed as he watched her carefully.“No. But am I trying”. She answered honestly, drawing the fresh in and out slowly.That answer struck him harder.They both walked towards the entrance slowly, they weren't touching, they were just there. Then the front door opened, as Sophia stepped inside for the first time in months, silence greeted her.The house felt….. emptier, not physically empty but emotionally, like warmth had left it a long time ago.She moved her eyes slowly across the room, the staircase, the marble floors, the large windows; it was as if they were ghosts everywhere.“I hate this place after you left”. Damien said, his voice was quiet. He was standing behind her.“You didn't seem to”.She th

Chapter: The First Step forwardOutside the room, Sophia walked slower than usual, still holding the pictures carefully in her hands like they were glass. She stopped near the hallway window halfway. The sunlight shone softly across the images, tiny blurred photography of a little life growing inside her.“It's weird”. She whispered.Damien stood beside her quietly.“What is it”?.“I spent so long thinking my body only knows how to lose things”.His chest felt heavy immediately.“Sophia….”.“But this ….feels like maybe my body is finally trying to give something back”.Her fingers trembled against the photos as she held it far softly.There was heavy silence between them.Damien looked at her carefully.“You were never broken”. A little bitter smile touched her lips.“That's not what it felt like” .He stepped closer slowly.“Then everyone who made you feel that way was wrong”.Her eyes shifted to his and there was a brief pause between them because he included himself in that statement and they both knew it.“I

Chapter: The UltrasoundThe hospital waiting room was quieter than Sophia could remember or maybe it is because she was alone now or she had found peace. She curled her fingers nervously around the sleeve of her sweater as she sat beside Damien awaiting their turn in the reception area, they were absent minded staring at the television mounted on the wall without really watching it.Around them, people moved normally, talking, laughing softly, they were existing without fear. Sophia is jealous of that.You're thinking too much again”. Damien said, his voice bringing her back gently from her own thoughts. She looked at him briefly.“I am pregnant, apparently overthinking is part of the experience…it is normal to think”. She said, smiling faintly.“Pretty sure that's just your personality…I understand”. She would have rolled her eyes if anxiety wasn't clawing at her chest.Today was important, very important. It's a day for another scan, another check up, another chance to hear whether everything was still ok

Chapter: The Distance Between ThemSophia woke up the next morning nit from pain, nit from panic but from warmth. Fir a few seconds, she stayed still, eyes half closed half sleep. The morning light spilled through the curtain. The rain from the night before was gone and everything felt calm. Then she realized she wasn't alone. Damien had slept right beside her bed, he was still sitting on the chair he had dragged close sometime during the night. He rested one arm across the mattress near her, his hand tilted slightly awkwardly against the edge of the bed like he had refused to leave even after she fell asleep.Soptstared at him quietly. She felt something painful in her chest, something softer and more dangerous because this man, the same man who once broke her, shattered her had stayed through her worst nightmare without asking for anything in return and she didn't know what to do with that.Her gaze moved across his face slowly, his sharp jawline, his lips, his eyes, the faint exhaustion beneath those eyes, his brows

Chapter: The Night She Broke“But …..I don't want you to feel like you're standing outside my life anymore”.“........what dies that mean?”.“It means……you can come by whenever you want and I won't stop you. And you don't have to ask”.“....... Are you sure”?.Damien expression shifted not dramatic but real.“I am not letting you back completely”.“I understand”.“But I am not shutting you out either”.“That's is more than I expected”.“I don't get used to it”. She smiled.“I won't”.They stood there for a moment then without thinking, Sophia hand brushing lightly against his. Damien didn't react nor move closer he left it happens on her terms. Sophia noticed and this time she didn't move her hand away immediately.For the first time in a long while, Sophia smiled. She laughed not loudly,nit too long but genuinely. It happened over small things when Damien had burned the tea so badly.“You forgot to add water?” She asked, staring at the ruined pot.“I did not. I sure added water”.“You literally boiled leaves”. S

Chapter: Proof Not PromisesThere was a long silence.“You haven't asked me to come back again”.“I won't”.“Why”.That caught her attention.“Because you told me not to”. Damien said, meeting her gaze.She studied him longer looking for something like control, pressure,or expectation but she found none.“So what are you doing”?. She asked.“Waiting”.The word was simple but heavy.“You don't strike me as someone who waits”. She said,“I wasn't but I am now”.Sophia stared at him harder.“....why?”“Because you're worth it”. Damien said immediately he didn't hesitate.“You make it sound easy”. She said quietly.“It's not”.“Then why does it feel like you're so sure”.“I am not sure about anything. Except that I don't want to lose you again”. He leaned forward slightly.Sophia's breath caught slightly at the word “lose” and she hated that it did.Sophia's hand moved involuntarily to her stomach again.“You almost did”. She said,“I know”.“And now you're trying to fix it.”“Yes”.She looked at him again“What if
