Seven Years Later: My Husband wants me back
Five years of marriage, and Serena Vale was nothing more than a ghost in her husband’s mansion. Jackson Blackwood was brilliant, cold, and irreversibly tied to the memory of his first love, Avery, the woman who betrayed him to marry his identical twin brother, Jaden.
When a devastating car crash leaves her husband, Jackson dead and his twin surviving, Serena’s world shatters. But grief quickly turns to horror when the surviving twin returns. He carries Jaden’s face, but his most intimate, private habits belong to Jackson.
Then the realization hit her; Her husband is alive. He faked his own death and stole his dead brother's identity, just to escape her and play protector to Avery.
Broken, abandoned, and carrying a secret that could change everything, Serena leaves behind a signed divorce agreement and vanishes into the night.
Seven years later, Serena returns to Los Angeles as a powerful, untouchable CEO. She has built an empire, rebuilt her heart, and moved on with her new fiance, Nathaniel Cross, a gentle, attentive man who gives her the devotion she always deserved.
Then Jackson reappears, consumed by regret and a burning obsession to reclaim the only woman he once neglected. He doesn't just want her forgiveness; he wants her back. And he holds one final, terrifying card: he never signed the divorce papers.
She is still his wife. But as hidden betrayals unravel and past sins come to light, Jackson will learn that winning Serena back isn't just about fighting her anger, it’s about surviving the dangerous shadows lurking in her new life.

Chapter: Treated like a crazy personSERENA POV"Calm down, Serena. You need to rest."The metal doors slammed shut with a heavy, final thud that echoed straight through my chest.I was curled up on the cold, polished floor of the small white room, drenched in my own tears, clutching my belly with both arms. The smell of harsh bleach and cheap disinfectant burned the back of my throat. Every breath I took felt like inhaling broken glass."I'm not mad!" I screamed, my voice raw and cracking against the blank walls. I dragged myself up onto my knees, pounding my fists against the heavy reinforced door. "Listen to me! I am not crazy! I'm pregnant with Jackson's child! Please, someone look at my records! I was just at St. Jude Hospital!"A small rectangular hatch on the door slid open. A stern-faced nurse in blue scrubs looked in at me, her eyes filled with cold, professional pity."Mrs. Serena, please step back from the door," she said, her tone monotonous, like she had repeated the same line a thousand times. "Shouting lik

Chapter: I'm not mad!SERENA POVDr. Harrison chuckled softly, shaking his head. "There is no bad news, Serena. But there is major news. Your body is under a lot of strain because it's working overtime right now."I frowned, my heart skipping a frantic beat. "What do you mean?""Serena... you're pregnant," Dr. Harrison revealed, looking at me with a soft smile. "You are almost six weeks along."The world around me stopped.The low hum of the medical equipment, the distant beep of heart monitors, the muffled sounds of nurses in the hallway, everything vanished into a silent, breathless void."P-pregnant?" The word left my mouth as a fragile, stunned gasp."Yes," the doctor confirmed, showing me a printout of the ultrasound scan with a small, highlighted dot in the center. "The baby is completely healthy and resting safely in your uterus, but you must avoid stress. Your body was warning you today that it cannot handle this level of anxiety without risking complications. You need rest, food, and peace."I sta

Chapter: And the bad news?SERENA POVThe bedroom had become my golden cage.I paced the floor back and forth, the heels of my shoes clicking a frantic, restless rhythm against the dark polished wood. My heart felt like a trapped bird beating itself bloody against my ribs. Every wall of this mansion was suffocating me, suffocating the truth. I could still hear the raw, terrifying roar of Jackson's voice echoing in my ears from the greenhouse, how he had looked at me with such venom, cradling Avery like she was made of fine glass while branding me a monster.They were turning my reality inside out. Avery’s cruel, victorious smile as she threw herself onto the cold stone tiles played over and over in my head, a nauseating loop that made my skin crawl with helpless rage."I'm not crazy," I whispered into the quiet room, pressing my trembling palms against my temples. "I know my own husband. I know his voice, his shoulders, his touch... I know it's him."Suddenly, a sharp, blinding pain shot straight through my low

Chapter: Label her crazyAVERY POV“Are you out of your mind?!"Jaden’s voice thundered against the glass walls of the greenhouse, vibrating with a raw, terrifying fury I had never heard from him before.From my place on the cold stone floor, cradled against his broad chest, a slow, sly smirk stretched across my face where Serena couldn’t see it. I pressed my cheek into the soft fabric of his suit jacket, letting out a pitiful, trembling sob for effect, but behind my squeezed-shut eyelids, I was practically bursting with triumph."Jackson, please..." Serena stammered, her face ghostly pale, her hands shaking as she gestured wildly between us. "She's lying! She threw herself down! I didn't push her, I swear to God I didn't touch her!""Shut up, Serena! Just shut your mouth!" Jaden snarled, his eyes dark with absolute disgust as he glared at the trembling widow. "How far are you going to pull through with this nonsense? You're sick at this point! Pushing an innocent woman because you can't accept reality? You n

Chapter: Performance of a lifetimeSERENA POV“What the hell?"The words escaped my throat as a breathless, ragged whisper.My eyes burned as I stared down at the documents in my hands. The divorce papers were cold enough, but the power of attorney form dated two weeks before the crash was pure poison. He had planned this. Jackson had systematically handed over his life, his fortune, and his future to Avery while leaving me with nothing but empty grief.Heavy, hurried footsteps echoed down the hardwood corridor outside the study.My heart slammed against my ribs. I shoved the paper stack back inside the crisp white folder, slid it into the hidden compartment, and pushed the secret latch shut until it gave a muted click. Swooping down, I ducked behind the heavy mahogany desk, crouching in the cramped space near the leather armchair just as the brass doorknob turned.The oak door swung open with a creak."Why is this door open?" Jackson's deep, smooth voice filled the room, sharp with immediate suspicion. "It's normally

Chapter: Men crueltySERENA POVBaby?"The word left my lips as a fragile, pathetic squeak.Avery’s hand glided over her silk robe, cupping her abdomen in a gesture so full of quiet pride it felt like a physical slap across my face. She didn’t look at me. She kept her eyes fixed entirely on the man standing over me."Yes, darling," Avery crooned, her voice thick with exaggerated softness. "Our baby is restless tonight. Please come back to bed."I looked up at Jackson, desperate to catch even a fraction of a slip in his composure. Was she pregnant? Was it Jackson's? Or was it Jaden's?If Avery was carrying Jackson’s child, it meant my husband hadn’t just rejected me, he had betrayed me in the most ultimate, unforgivable way imaginable. But if it was Jaden’s baby, then why was Jackson so eager to step into his dead twin’s shoes, play father to another man's child, and look at me with such icy, unfeeling detachment?A terrifying, dark wave of self-doubt washed over me. The hallway felt like it was spinning.

Chapter: Cold coffee and trembling handsARIA POV“Don't flatter yourself, Vance. Nothing happened last night."I spat the words out the moment Aria stepped into the sunlit kitchen, my voice dripping with as much icy venom as I could muster.I stood by the marble island, clad in my usual sharp black button-down and trousers, leaning casually against the counter with a steaming mug of black coffee in my hand. On the outside, I looked completely composed, relaxed, and in control. But on the inside, my mind was a chaotic mess.Every time I closed my eyes, I didn't see my cold, calculated plans or the image of my vintage Ducati. I saw Aria's soft dark eyes in the flash of lightning. I felt the steady, reassuring warmth of her hands wrapped around mine, guiding me out of the suffocating dark while I choked like a pathetic coward on the floor.It made my stomach twist in knots. I hated her for seeing me like that. I hated her even more for not using it against me.Aria froze near the doorway, her hand lingering on her backpack str

Chapter: The panic attackJAXON POV“What the hell was the meaning of that stunt you pulled out there today, Blake?!"I cornered Blake against the brick wall of the campus gymnasium, my hands gripping the collar of his athletic jacket so hard my knuckles turned white. The rain was pouring down around us, but I didn't care. My blood was boiling.Blake just laughed, casually pushing my hands off his jacket and smoothing down his shirt with a lazy, arrogant grin."Relax, Jax. I was just playing my part," Blake said smoothly, leaning against the wall. "To win your million-dollar bet and get that Ducati, I have to make her fall completely in love with me. And to do that, I needed to earn her absolute trust. Stepping in between you two in the library was the easiest way to make her think I'm her white knight.""I told you to break her heart, Reed, not steal my joy!" I snapped, my jaw locked tight as I glared at him. "I wanted to watch her kneel. I wanted to see her utterly humiliated on that floor for everyone to se

Chapter: The filtered CrueltyARIA POV“Did she actually think a guy like Blake Reed would ever look at someone like her? What a desperate pig!"A sharp, cruel voice echoed across the crowded university hallway, shattering the last remaining pieces of my fragile confidence.The video playing on my phone screen wasn't just the clip of me on my knees in the library. Someone had maliciously edited it. Worse than that, they had warped it using obnoxious, humiliating video filters, adding giant cartoon clown tears to my face, sparkling gold coins raining down around me with every sob to mock my mother's marriage, and flashing text overlays calling me a “desperate gold-digger” and a “pathological slut trying to seduce Blake and cause a fight between two best friends.”The comments section was moving at a blinding, terrifying speed. Hundreds of students from across Crestwood University were tearing me apart piece by piece, accusing me of throwing myself at Blake just to climb social ladders."Look at her pretending she d

Chapter: The rescue and the viral nightmareARIA POV“Kneel down right now and apologize!" Jaxon's ruthless command echoed off the high ceiling of the library, sharp and cold as a blade.I stood frozen against the wooden bookshelf, my chest heaving in fast, shallow breaths. Dozens of students stood in a wide circle around us, their eyes glued to my trembling frame. Some were holding up their phones, recording, while others whispered and giggled behind their hands. The humiliation was so heavy, so thick, that it felt like an anchor pulling me straight down into the dirt.Kneel.My knees trembled violently. Tears of pure, agonizing shame spilled hot over my eyelashes, burning my cheeks. Every instinct inside me screamed at me to fight back, to throw my heavy textbooks at Jaxon's arrogant face, to scream until my lungs gave out.But then, sudden, painful memory flashes flooded my mind, shattering my courage.I could hear my mother’s harsh, shrill voice echoing in my head from years ago, cutting through my memory like glass: “You'r

Chapter: Worst daysAria pov"Did... did the almighty Blake Reed just walk up to me?" I whispered under my breath, my hands trembling as I hugged my notebook tightly against my chest.My heart was doing violent backflips against my ribs. My cheeks felt like they were literally on fire, glowing a deep, unshakeable pink. I sat alone at the library table, staring at the empty chair across from me, completely unable to wipe the silly, giddy grin off my face."What on earth just happened?" I murmured to myself, leaning my hot forehead against the wooden table. "He walked up to the real me. Not the anonymous texter. Not a profile picture. He saw me sitting here, came over, and offered to tutor me!"It felt like a sweet, incredible dream. For months, I had been watching him from the top row of the ice rink, feeling completely invisible, convinced that a guy like Blake would never notice a girl like me. And now he noticed me. Oh my gosh!I took a few deep, shaky breaths, finally gathering my courage and my heavy

Chapter: The wager and the huntBLAKE POV“You've got to be kidding me," I breathed, my eyes wide as Jaxon threw back the heavy canvas sheet in the center of his private three-car garage.Sitting before us was the matte-black, custom 1969 vintage Ducati motorcycle. The polished chrome detail gleamed under the soft overhead lights, and the rich smell of leather, gasoline, and expensive polish filled the room. I had been begging Jaxon to sell me this exact bike since our freshman year, but the stubborn bastard had always refused, guarding it like a sacred family treasure.I looked from the motorcycle over to Jaxon, who was leaning casually against the hood of his sports car, sipping iced bourbon with a deadpan look on his face."I thought you were joking earlier, Jax," I said, a dry laugh escaping my throat. "You're really putting this on the line?""I never joke about something like this, Blake," Jaxon replied coldly, taking a slow sip of his drink. "Especially not with my precious bike."I stared at the sleek machin
