LOGINA fire erased his memory. A lie took her place. Genevieve Carlisle was once Mrs. Elias Whitmore, bound to him by contract, discarded by him without hesitation. Now she’s back. Divorced. Pregnant. And no longer willing to disappear quietly. Because the man who forgot her is about to marry another woman, Bianca, the one who claims she owns the past he can’t remember. But Elias doesn’t treat Genevieve like a stranger. His gaze lingers too long. His touch burns when it shouldn’t. And the closer she gets, the more his control begins to fracture. He doesn’t remember her…but something in him refuses to let her go. And then there’s Felix Whitmore. The other brother. Cold. Untouchable. Rumored to be incapable of desire. The only man who never looked at her like she was temporary. He offers her a deal: marry him, and take back everything that was stolen. What no one knows? Felix Whitmore has been watching her for far longer than he should. Wanting her in ways no one would ever believe. Now Genevieve is caught between two brothers, one who forgot she was ever his… and one who has always known she should be. But in a world built on lies, memory can be rewritten. And love? It can turn into an obsession. And when Elias finally remembers, it might be too late…..

“Here you go, Mrs Whitmore.” The doctor said, with a bright smile, handing me two papers that would either seal my fate or toss me out. I swallowed, my hands clammy as I took it from her. “You’re exactly six weeks pregnant.” She announced, and my heart started pounding fiercely. Pregnant… a new life. No……no… I couldn’t afford a new life. My husband already hates me. Our marriage was one of convenience. The agreement was that we’d be married for exactly one year, and after that, we’d divorce amicably. There were two rules tied to that agreement: I wouldn’t fall in love with him, and I wouldn’t get pregnant either.But like a fool, I’d broken both of them.
“Is everything alright, Mrs Whitmore?” The species voice caused my head to snap up. I stared at her, my mouth wide open for a second before I shook my head and then nodded ir. “Yes, I’m alright…..just shocked.” More like thinking of the best way to relay this to my husband. Our scheduled divorce was supposed to happen in the. In about three weeks, I’d get exactly three million dollars. I could pay off Dad’s debts and put him in rehab. My hand caressed my belly slowly……it felt like I could feel the life force of this baby warming up inside me. “You need to take things easy from now on-“ “I thought it was food poisoning…….I should have known when Doctor Carson sent me down here……I…..” I licked the dryness from my lips and rubbed my sweaty palms on my jeans before sitting forward. I grabbed her hands, letting her feel every ounce of desperation clawing its way to my throat. “I…..I would like to get rid of it.” She paused, her words ending mid-sentence. Her eyes were wide with surprise. “I’m sorry? You……you want to do what?” “Look, you are the Whitmore family doctor; you’re bound by doctor-patient confidentiality to keep this between us. I can’t keep this baby.” “Would you like to discuss this with your husband first?” “It’s what he would want as well.” I choked back my tears, still holding onto her. “I….. would advise that you think on this before making any rash decisions.” “I have thought about it.” Keeping the baby would be foolish. Not only do I have debts as large as the West Coast, getting the money for them rides on not falling pregnant! “I’ll be back in three days for the appointment; please, keep this between us.” She opens her mouth for a second before shutting it. However, she still droned on about medication and how to be in my first trimester, her voice drowned in the background of my fears, until she finally nodded her goodbyes. I gripped the sonogram and test result tightly while Harrison, the driver my husband assigned to me, grabbed my bag, leading me to the car. He pulled the door open for me, waiting for me to climb inside it so he could get in the driver's seat. My bodyguard, Parker, sat on the other side. “Are you alright, ma’am?” Parker asked, with worrisome eyes, for too long at my hand pressed over my belly. “Of course,” I replied, hating the way my voice came out with a squeak. I cleared my throat, put on a brave face with a soft smile, and nodded again. “I hope I didn’t leave you guys waiting too long?” “Of course, ma’am… It’s our job to wait on you. You just seemed……different.” “How?” “Like you’ve seen a ghost.” My mind wandered back to the sonogram in my bag even as I shook my head and lied through my teeth again; “I’m alright……just a bit sick today; that’s all.” Both of them nodded, and I looked out the window, watching as the buildings sped past. All I could do was hope and pray Elias would take it well…. — Three hours later, after a rigorous shower, I dressed in my husband’s black shirt, staring at the black and white image in my hands; my heart still pounding hard. The sound of someone swiping the key card brings my head to the door. My husband, Elias Whitmore, steps into the foyer, his suit jacket draped over his shoulder, looking like the same impeccable man who walked out this morning. His eyes travelled up my naked legs to where the tester stopped mid thigh until it rested on my breasts before ending on my face. “You’re back……I-i have something to tell you,” I whispered, my voice shaky. Throwing his jacket to the side, he pops two of his buttons open, advancing towards me. His broad shoulders flexed, long fingers working his buttons until finally, I was trapped between him and the cold wall. “E-Elias…..t-today, I went t-to-“ he grabs me by my waist and brings my body to his: the simple act knocks the breath from my lungs at once. “You look ravishing.” His green eyes focused on my lips while he tipped my head, angling my face to his. “I really need to- “ he slams his lips on mine, cutting my words short. “Hmm.” I whimpered, pressing my hands to his chest in an effort to push him away. Grabbing my hands, he pins them over my head; lifts my right leg so it’s draped over his waist, and starts grinding his rock-hard cock against my center. Another whimper escapes me, my brain turns fuzzy as my strength gives way to his. He peppers kisses all over my neck, my jaw line, my cheeks, before stopping at my lips. “So fucking beautiful…” he groans, eyes shining with satisfaction. A slow smirk graces his lips; “Tell me.” “I-I’m yours.” I knew what he meant… we met at his office. I went there to request yet another loan, holding our last standing property as collateral. One glance at me, and the man beside him handed me a card with his name scribbled on it. It was him, Elias Whitmore! The infamous bachelor in all of Wisconsin. He had one offer for me: to be my wife for one year, so my mother gets off my back about marriage, and I can make all your debts vanish in one hour. That was all I needed. I’d nodded, signed the document without question, and thirty minutes later, I was dressed in a wedding gown, a bouquet of white roses in my hand, and saying I do " to a man I’d only seen on television. The early agreement was that we wouldn’t have sex… until we realized his mother would find out if he ever took other lovers. Besides that, it was tough to stay away from a man as handsome as him… so, we started acting like a real couple even when his mother or the cameras weren’t around. So we agreed to a sexual relationship; no strings attached…..until I fell in love. “Elias…….I really need to speak to you about something urgent.” “What’s more urgent than this? Hmm..?” He whispered against my skin, already popping my first four buttons so my tits were visible to him. He was even harder now, his cock poking through my panties eliciting soft whimpers and moans from me. “Tell me you don’t want this…” he taunts, not gripping my left breast in the familiar way that left me spilling around him last night. My eyes fluttered closed, the last of my strength ran out as my moans came out even faster, sharper, rising higher and higher until I was just about to spill around him; “That’s what I thought.” I heard him groan, before that sound followed his zipper coming loose. But before anything could happen, I heard a loud shrill come from his pocket. “Damnit.” He grunts, ignoring it until it stops ringing before resuming with the kisses on my neck. However, before we can move further from there, his phone rings again. “Fuck. This better be good.” He hissed, pecking my neck once to apologize for the interruption before sliding the call to answer. “Father?” My body goes tense at the realization of who is on the other end. “Oh? Are you certain?” Elis stares at me, eyes shining with something that makes my heart skip… not in a good way. “I’m on my way.” He hangs up, and his body suddenly goes cold against mine. Fixing himself, he goes soft in a couple of minutes before grabbing his jacket. He’s headed for the door when I find my voice again; “What’s happening?” “We’re done, Genevieve. Sign the divorce papers.”FELIX’S POINT OF VIEW.The first thing I saw was the speedometer; its wing ticking higher and higher as the trees, cars, and everything else passed in a blur. I held onto the wheel for dear life; the only thing on my mind….Genevieve.Genevieve is inside an out-of-control moving, speeding car that’s headed for a cliff. That was more than enough for me to disregard my safety and every traffic law. I saw the cop cars racing behind me in my peripheral vision the second I went past the speed limit, but I didn’t care.I didn’t slow down.‘I’m on my way.’ I made a promise to her; I won’t break it. I won’t fail again… no… one time is enough.My grip tightened around the wheel as Genevieve’s location blinked violently across the tracking device embedded into the dashboard of my Audi. I gritted my teeth at the sight. It’s fast….too fucking fast. Shit!Rainwater from earlier still stained the road up ahead, reflecting the flashing police lights in streaks of red and blue. The sound of helicopt
THIS IS A TRIPLE POINT OF VIEW CHAPTER VIVI’S POINT OF VIEW.If I thought stepping on nonexistent brakes was bad, the sight of the red and blue lights blaring behind me was worse. My throat felt like it had knotted, my grip on the steering wheel slippery as I tried to hold on with sweaty palms. About four cars were charging towards mine in the dead of night.Their sirens blared into the silence, followed by my sobbing. I could taste the salt from my tears that wouldn’t stop falling.Is this really it for me? “Slow down!” I heard from behind me, the warped voice streamed from the microphone or the megaphone as the police cars still charged on. “Obey our order or we will have to exert force.”I tried to pull my left hand from the steering wheel to roll the left window down by the second. I tried to pry my fingers off the leather-coated wheel, but it felt like my grip only tightened.“This is our final warning; slow down now!” I can’t! I yelled into the silent car, my lips pulled in a
VIVI’S POINT OF VIEW.I shouldn’t have left the house that night. Over the past three days, Felix has treated me like a breakable piece. I wasn’t allowed to do anything on my own. Maria acted like a constant shadow, walking everywhere with me and only retiring when I was about to sleep.One thing I noticed since being here was I never caught a glimpse of Felix. Not even once. The house still had that lonely, eerie feel. Even when I closed my eyes to sleep, I felt the ghost of someone’s hand on my head, followed by a low whisper of words I couldn’t place.That night, I’d just had my dinner. The only thing I could get down was noodles; every other thing left me feeling nauseous. So Maria prepared a bowl of beef noodles. Just as I was about to head to bed, my phone dinged with a text. I raced towards it, my heart slamming against my ribs. I thought it was Felix. Since I never saw him, he always sent word via text or Maria.Every night, he sent texts, reassuring me he was alright and wou
BIANCA’S POINT OF VIEW.The muffled sound of someone speaking over the slow beep of the monitors around is the first thing I hear. I turned from my spot where I sliced apples to see that Elias stirred. His lips moved slowly, making me drop the small knife before I rushed to his side.“Elias? Baby?” I whispered, reaching for his hands. They feel limp in my hold, but still, the feel of his skin connecting with mine is almost visceral. Over a decade, and I finally get to touch him.After every advance rejected, every moment I spent reaching for him only to be shut down, I get to touch him now without him pulling away. I stifled the urge to rub his skin against my cheek, to sniff his neck to get that dose of his Armani cologne. Elias Whitmore….after all this time, you’re mine; all mine. His eyes fluttered open slowly. I slid a mask of devotion on, pushing my body closer to his bed and him while I reached for his cheek with my other hand. “Baby…..Elias, you’re awake now.” His eyes flutt
