Chapter: Chapter 46THE WEDDINGKyraI didn’t imagine Liam would be so efficient and fast. He literally thought of everything. I didn’t worry about anything, except the dress fittings, the buffet tastings, and the chosen songs, as well as the arrangements that would be at the main entrance.I didn’t want anything too big, but Liam insisted on showing everyone how happy he was. Who am I to stop the happiness of my beloved!The makeup artist was giving the final touches to the blush — I didn’t want anything extravagant, but they insist that today is my day. The most important and unforgettable day of my life.I was anxious, a part of me wanted to get married quickly and run out of there. The other part wanted the world to know that Liam Blackthorne would be my husband, forever. I wanted to scream that I love him, but the only thing I could feel was nervousness. My hands sweating nonstop, my mind telling me I’m forgetting something and I just wanting everything to be over soon.Julie was the flower girl. Sh

Chapter: Chapter 45KyraI woke up still feeling my body tired. My head ached as I tried to get up or process anything."Good morning, Aunt Kyra. Are you okay?" Julie was sitting in the armchair next to the bed, with her bunny on her lap and her hands restless."She was waiting to have breakfast with you. She refused to go with me, unfortunately." Liam was focused on his laptop. "Good morning, my love." "What time is it? Did I really sleep that much?" "Almost ten, but I’m not that hungry. My dad gave me toast with honey, so I can wait." "I’m going to get ready and we’ll go down, okay?" She nodded and ran to the balcony.Liam was too focused on the spreadsheet he was reviewing."Something urgent?" I approached him subtly, without invading his space."I think we’ll have to go back today. Some issues came up at the company and I need to be there within 48 hours." The irritation in his eyes was clear. "I’m sorry, I promise we’ll come back and this time, I swear I’ll have more time for you." "It’s okay.

Chapter: Chapter 44LiamKyra woke up early, opened the curtains, and avoided me all morning. We went down together for breakfast. At lunch, she went out with Julie to explore the beach, while I stayed back, just watching from a distance how perfectly they fit together."It’s a beautiful view, isn’t it?" the lady beside me asked. Until then, I hadn’t even noticed her presence. "Is that your wife and your daughter?" "My fiancée and my daughter" I replied, still lost in the scenery I never imagined seeing with my own eyes. "It really is a beautiful view." "And what are you waiting for to marry her?" The question hit me deeply, even though I had never really stopped to think about it. "Your daughter likes her, and from what your eyes say, you admire her… and love her too, I suppose." Before the conversation could go any further, Olivia appeared again. All calculated, as always."Do you already know each other?" she asked, placing her hands on the woman’s shoulders, who smiled at me."We just met, and we

Chapter: Chapter 43LiamKyra and Julie decided they wanted to go to an island, and here we are, the three of us, in Mykonos, Greece. We’re staying at the Myconian Villa Collection, in Elia Beach.Julie’s doctor came with us—I can’t risk my daughter’s life while we’re out here living. As a precaution, and since they’re already friends, I decided to invite her and pay her much more than usual.Kyra seemed at ease, or at least that’s what she tried to show. At times, I caught her with a distant look, as if searching for something she had left behind. And this time, it was happening again.She stared at the sea through the window, breathing softly, lost in thought."So… have you decided where to start?" "You know, Liam, I was thinking about how things can change in the blink of an eye. A few months ago, I was sure I was going to die without any mercy. But then I met you, you introduced me to Julie and…" she didn’t finish, and her words lingered in the air."And all of this only happened because you chose t

Chapter: Chapter 42A few days laterKyraThe happy days were numbered. Liam’s lawyers were downstairs, papers in hand, talking about something I couldn’t hear—but I knew exactly what it was about: Marcos.Julie was packing the backpack we’d take on the trip, while I… my heart was tight with everything that had happened."Kyra? They’re gone." Liam stood at the door, arms crossed and an irritated expression."I…" I wanted to say something, but nothing came out. "Liam, things weren’t supposed to happen like this. You only acted that way because of me. I don’t want you to take the blame for something I brought into your life." I looked out the window, trying to gather strength to fix whatever I could."None of this is your fault. He was always a mistake that came along with his sister. Let’s just say you were essential for what I wanted. Believe me, none of this is your fault. I would never let someone touch the person I love—and that person is you." "I know you knew each other before you met me, but you

Chapter: Chapter 41LiamI decided I wouldn’t insist on that subject anymore, even with something inside me screaming to pull an answer out of her."Alright. I’m sorry, sometimes I really am an idiot and don’t notice the good things I have around me." Her hand touched mine and I felt my body react instantly. "I really want to be with you, I just don’t want to be a burden." "You’ve never been a burden, you know that." I stopped the car still far from home. Julie looked at me sleepily but didn’t ask anything."I want to tell you that I… that I think it’s very unfair for you to want to go somewhere far from where I can see you every day when I wake up. You know that I…" "Liam, you won’t see me wake up every day, just like I’m not going to disappear overnight either. After all, what are you so afraid of?" Her gaze confused me, especially when she locked eyes with me in such an intimate moment like this. "I’m not going to disappear from your life, even if you wanted that right now, okay?"Kyra made me real

Chapter: Chapter 14Mikhail I made sure I got to the company before I started work. Cristina took my car to get around the city, as hers no longer belongs to her. Matthew had just come off duty and stopped by the company before going home. “You didn't lose your mind yesterday, did you?” Matthew asked after I told him the details of how I ended things with Cristina. “You know what I can't believe, her giving in that easily?” “She's pregnant and knows that when our child is born, she'll be able to have everything she wants.” I'm also suspicious and waiting for a reaction from her, which she hasn't shown so far. “But that's not what's bothering me now.” Donna was the one dominating my thoughts and emotions. “What is this woman doing to you? If I'd known she'd be so essential for you to open your eyes, I'd have guessed.” Matthew was the guy who advised me the most about Cristina, what she was like and her greed, even though I knew her, I thought she might change. “I don't know if I did the right thing,

Chapter: Chapter 13Donna Nervous, listless and sleep-deprived, that's how I stood in front of the window, watching the wind sway the trees outside. I called Jess, but she didn't pick up or call me back. My son sleeps peacefully, he has no idea how crazy his mother's life is. I ran my hands through his hair and now it's impossible not to look at him and remember Mikhail, the eyes, hair, nose and mouth are almost the same, very similar and I don't know how long I can bear to keep this secret. I was going over some things on the computer when Jess called me. "I was in the shower, what happened? Is everything all right?""Yes, everything's fine. I mean... Mikhail and I were alone today and you have no idea how similar Dominic and he are. They're so much alike." I cried without needing to hold it in, feeling the weight of my conscience knock me down and I leaned back in the swivel chair. "Does he know anything? Donna, calm down and tell me what's going on. But there's no need to rush.""Matthew reminded

Chapter: Chapter 12Mikhail I had to kiss her, I needed to feel her lips and when I did, I felt a unique sensation that didn't last long... But she still has the same soft, burning lips that, when they touch mine, feel like I'm living in paradise. “What are you doing? Have you lost your mind?” Suddenly she pushed me and I hit my back on the car. “Have you ever thought about someone seeing that? It would certainly be a problem for me.”“I take responsibility for everything I do.” She looked at me and just watched. DonnaI wasn't ready to receive a kiss from you, especially under these circumstances. I was embarrassed and at a loss for words to say how unusual it was.“Whatever, just don't do it anymore. I don't want any trouble.” I felt my body boil and the urge to kiss him was stronger than I was, but I couldn't do it. Dafne was waiting for me, and as soon as I pressed the doorbell, she opened the door. “He slept, but he called for you until he went to sleep. He's very attached to you.” She led me

Chapter: Chapter 11Mikhail Her face, her hair and even her eyes were still the same in person, identical as in the photo, but I can't remember much from that night. Donavan was talking to the two of them while I tried to recall some memories, but nothing came to mind, I just remember kissing her to fulfill the challenge of the game that Stella proposed that night and nothing more.I approached them and Ella left with Donavan, they went to gamble leaving her alone at the table drinking. “May I?” I asked, sitting down facing her and pouring myself a shot of whisky. “Of course!” Her giggle caught me by surprise, making me notice every detail of her. “Still attending Stella's parties?”“No, I'm engaged, unfortunately. - She stared at me blankly and looked at something other than me.” It's just that Stella's parties are too much for me... “I understand! Ella had already commented on that, I'm sorry for asking such a silly question.” Her hand was on the table, Donna mentioned getting up and I, without thi

Chapter: Chapter 10MikhailMatthew was telling me about how wonderful it was to see his beloved again after so long. But I ignored all of that, ever since Cristina told me she was pregnant and proved it, I haven't been able to be the same anymore. It's like something is constantly pulling me down. Matthew convinced me to go out for drinks and have a good time, and that was all I needed."We should be careful and grab an umbrella, because it's a miracle you left home without your fiancée." Matthew knows the whole situation, how irritating and superficial Cristina is, but because of these things, I prefer to stay focused on my work only."I don't know how I'm going to spend the rest of my life with that woman. Damn the moment I... Damn the moment I let myself indulge in life's pleasures (having unprotected sex). And here I am, agreeing to reconcile this damn marriage."Cristina no longer has an inheritance to receive; her father sold all his properties to me. So, without me, Cristina is just someone who w

Chapter: Chapter 9Two months later...DonnaThings were going well. Every day I discover a new version of myself. Dominic has settled in well; he loves school and Dafne. My days have been quite hectic, but today I was invited to dinner at Ella's house with Dom, and I couldn't refuse or she'd hit me.There are rumors that Mikhail and his fiancée broke up, but reconciled because she was pregnant. Honestly, I prefer to keep my son as he has always been, but it's so hard to have to lie. Dominic had just come home from school, and Dafne had some good news."Good afternoon, Ms. Hardin.""No need for 'Ms.,' please. I'm neither that old nor that saintly." Dafne was a wonderful person, and anyone would be lucky to have a Dafne, a Jess, or an Ella—they are the best people I've ever met in my life."Okay, Donna! My boyfriend and I were invited to dinner at his house tonight, but if you need me, I can stay here, no problem." Her boyfriend also works at Cyndi, a responsible and good-hearted guy. He always drops her
