Chapter: Epilogue!Seven months later!The bedroom was a slumbering giant, quiet and dark. The only source of light was soft moonlight reaching through the window. The shadow of Eva clung to the walls as she got up from the bed way too silently, preventing herself from making any noise that could wake her husband. She entered the kitchen. The only sound was a faint hum of the fridge as she tiptoed barefoot across the cool tiles. Every step felt like a secret, the wood beneath her feet creaking just enough to make her pause and to see if her husband had come around.But she can't blame herself for waking up in the middle of the night because of her pregnancy cravings. That craving hit her like a storm hours ago, a hunger so fierce it gnawed at her and tugged her out of bed. Eva opened the fridge door with a careful softness, as if even the rush of cold air might betray her. The insides are glowing like a treasure chest just like moonlight.Grinning, she opened the ice-cream tub, taking a spoonful of mint

Chapter: His truth!There's a phrase called.'Pain is a silent storm that rages within, unseen by the world but felt in every breath I take.'They lost a baby!But they still had another one!In the hospital's white sheets Eva stared blankly at the ceiling. She was numb to feel anything absorbing the news from earlier. Her heart wasn't ready to accept that they had lost a baby, but she was still pregnant with the other one. Yes, she was pregnant with twins, but their fate took an ugly turn. Her heart pained at the loss, but at the same time it was relieved that she was still pregnant. She was pregnant but she lost the other one. She didn't know how to feel about it.The doctor checked her with a stethoscope while Vincent's gaze remained stuck on her stomach. He was feeling the same emotions as her but showed an emotionless demeanor towards the outer world."It's a phenomenon called 'vanishing twin syndrome'. It wasn't a rare case, as people believe, but who can escape destiny?"The doctor's last words ad

Chapter: We won't lose!Author's POV'Eva trembled as fear started rising in her when Chloe declared that, and before she could open her mouth to say something, a loud voice could be heard inside the basement."I'll burn down the world, including you, if you even dare to hurt my wife, Chloe."Her eyes snapped towards the source of the voice. She took a breath of relief as silent tears made their way through her eyes."Oh, so you have finally come, my dear son."Chloe stated sarcastically, but my eyes were stuck on Vincent, who wasn't even glancing her way. Her heart clenched thinking he might not forgive her this time for the stupidity she did."Come to the point, Chloe."His eyes remained firm on his mother."What's the hurry, son? We are meeting after so long, and I'm your mother, so don't call me by my name."Chloe's eyes started to turn red in anger when she stated the last line."You don't deserve to be called a mother. In fact, you don't deserve to be one."Chloe gritted her teeth at his words."Watch

Chapter: Heartbreaking Message!"If you want to find out about an important woman in your husband's life, then come and meet me at the given location."I stared at the message in front of me blankly. I was so excited not too long ago, and I was feeling numb not understanding my own feelings. After finding out about my pregnancy, the happiness and incredible feelings which I was feeling was just indescribable. I was so excited to surprise Vincent with this news, but got this heartbreaking message which shattered my heart into pieces.Is this the same woman whom Vincent was taking with the other day?I need to find out about her. It is a necessity for me to know, since Vincent wasn't telling me on his own. We can't move on to our next chapter of life without knowing one's past life. He already knows about mine but me, on the other hand? What about me? Isn't it my right to know about my husband's past life which he refused to tell me about?"Since you won't tell me, I need to find out on my own or else we can't move on

Chapter: Sick?Holding my hair at one side, I continued to throw up in the toilet of whatever I ate this afternoon until my stomach emptied completely. Vomits are the most disgusting thing in the world. I always find them way to hell because it takes all my strength away, leaving me numb and weak. I was feeling so numb that I couldn't even stand on my feet even if I tried, so I sat there until I was able to stand on my feet.I was still feeling that sweet sore between my legs after our last night's session.I'm not complaining though. A tear rolled down my cheeks when last night flashed in front of me."I don't want you again in my life. Do you get that? I'm happy with my wife and don't want any other woman in my life."Whom was he talking about? Is he hiding his past from me? Don't I have the right to know? Did he had another woman in his past, and now she's trying to get back?I sobbed as I felt an immense pain inside my heart when I thought about possibilities. I should trust him and nothing else.

Chapter: Hiding?I stared up at him with my glossy eyes while his eyes were still closed as he made his wish with a blow of a candle. I smiled back through my glossy eyes when he opened his eyes, smiling."It's not a good thing to let others know about your wishes, Vincent."I exclaimed softly, trying to control my tears, but unfortunately, one tear escaped from my eye. He chuckled lowly before wiping my tear using his thumb."For me, I wanted you to know my wish."He whispered near my ear, leaning down."Because no one can fulfill it rather than you."I smiled, bringing the cake up towards him."Come on now, cut the cake and tell me how it is?"I exclaimed happily, but he narrowed his eyes in curiosity. I sighed dramatically before saying."Because I made it with my own hands for you."It's my first cake which I baked by the way, but I won't tell him because I don't want to terrify him by telling him it's my first time making a cake. Yes, I have baked before, but they were muffins, not cakes.He shoo

Chapter: Powerless?I gasped for air when he kissed like there was no tomorrow. His hands and lips sinfully explored every inch of my body while I gasped for air. I moaned against his mouth, forgetting everything behind.Heaving his head up a little, he gave me that nasty stare before throwing off onto the bed, making me gasp. Before I could nag, he started to take off his shirt and my mouth turned dry. I gulped down the words which were about to come earlier. The power he has over me is speechless.When did I become so powerless? That I handed my soul to the devil only for him to crush it beneath his palm. My mouth watered at the sight of his bare chest, broody shoulders and muscled torso.The man was to die for. My lungs barely expanded with my attempts to inhale and exhale.clink..clink.I flinched coming out of my daze when the sounds of his cufflinks hitting the floor echoed in the dark and throbbed low in my belly.He stared at me unwaveringly."Take off your dress, Elena."My cheeks flamed hot.

Chapter: Another stab!A little girl was running.Not too long ago, I watched them promising each other to meet again.The sound of laughter echoed through the woods—high-pitched, distant, and wrong. Not the laughter of joy, but something older, something buried in the cracks between childhood and grief. I couldn’t see them, but I could feel them. The little girl and the boy.“Come find me!” the girl’s voice called, sing-song and airy.The trees twisted around her, tall and shadowed, the moonlight slicing through their branches like blades. My feet crunched over dead leaves, my breath ragged. I didn’t know why I was chasing them—only that I had to.Then I saw them.Two children, no older than six or seven. The girl wore a white dress smeared with earth. The boy’s hands were clasped over his eyes, counting, forehead pressed onto a tree trunk. The girl giggled and ran, vanishing into the woods.“One... two... three...”His voice was hollow.I tried to call out, but no sound came. My feet felt rooted. A cold w

Chapter: A new beginning!"If that's what you want."I refused the urge to look at him, still shocked and trying to process his words. Is he playing around? I had to make sure because why would he give in to my demand?When I asked him in the beginning I wanted to work, he brutally declined, crushing my dreams for which I worked so hard for years. I even ran away from my house even after when I couldn't stay away from my mother, but I knew I had to do it for my mother and myself."Would you?"I asked again because I wanted to make sure I wasn't hearing things.I felt him regarding me with his eyes for a while."Have I ever lied to you, Elena?"But you hide I forced it down my throat as I almost felt excited, but forced it down because he wasn't doing me a favor. It was my right from the start, but I realize it now that my heart is broken by him. How stupid was I to fall for him when I clearly warned myself? He had already played with my body and used it against me.Maybe my heart was always meant to be broken.

Chapter: Darkness!Elena's POV'I felt every fiber in my body paining as hell and I don't know why that is. It's been a few minutes since I woke up and found myself on the hospital bed.The fruits were placed beside me on the table. I was surprised when the doctor said I was admitted yesterday and woke up today. When I asked her why it was? In response, she said, I was drugged, so it was probably of that.I didn't dare to ask from her more. I was still traumatized from the event where I was tied to a chair inside a nasty basement with no way out, not to mention the old psycho. I didn't expect Devis to be evil, but to forget that I always got bad vibes from him since the beginning.Watching the emotionless look in his eyes when he tortured Devis was too much for me to handle. I just couldn't. That day I watched the real him.....Him turning into a monster like I called him that day. He proved me right. Now I couldn't look him in the eyes. I was starting feel for him before he made me numb with his past.W

Chapter: Starved Monster!The door shoots open while the whole area was surrounded by non-stop firing, making Elena shiver. A sighed in relief after looking at her husband.The door exploded inward with a thunderous crack, splinters flying. Dust and smoke rolled through the doorway like a wave. Devis didn’t flinch. But his men did—guns raised, shouts barked.And out of the smoke came Vincenzo.Black coat. Black shirt. Eyes like gunmetal. And a pistol in his hand, steady as death.“Let her go.” he said, his voice a growl edged with steel.The two guards hesitated.Devis didn’t.He raised a hand—calm, like a man conducting a meeting rather than a hostage standoff.“Son,” he said, voice smooth."Lower the gun. This doesn’t have to end in blood.”Vincenzo moved slowly, deliberately, his eyes locked on Elena. Her chest rose and fell in shallow breaths. She lifted her head slightly at the sound of his voice — hope flickering behind bruised lids.“You chained my wife.”Vincenzo said.“Fucking drugged her. Hurt her an

Chapter: Leave me!"Track my wife before I blow out your heads fuckers."Vincenzo yelled at his men in the digital room. Ever since he heard his wife was kidnapped, he was out of control, and it's been twelve hours since she went missing. He was still recovering from his mother's last footage when his wife went missing. All in one moment. He still tried to mask his emotions.The digital was a mess in itself as Vincenzo unleashed his anger on those non-living things. He was so close to shooting one of his men who tried to piss him off."Play the last footage of Elena."He ordered before focusing on the screen when Elena came into view. He saw her tear-drenched face, making him clench his jaw as she left their bedroom and descended the stairs, nearly bumping with one of his men.They communicated before he led her out of the mansion, making Vincenzo's blood boil."Who the hell let her out of my fucking mansion?"His men gulped in fear, sensing the ragging anger lurking in their boss's threatening voice."
