KIER'S POV:

"Take her to the warehouse," I say. "Put her in the room. Make sure she is comfortable. She is pregnant. I do not want anything to happen to the baby."

The men look at me. They are professionals, hired by Vladimir Drakon, paid to do what they are told without asking questions. But I can see the question in their eyes. They are wondering why I care about the baby. They are wondering why I do not just kill her and be done with it.

They do not understand. No one understands. I am no

  • After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me   When He Opened His Eyes

    ​DAMON'S POV:​The first thing I noticed when I woke up was the pain.​It was a dull ache starting near my ribs and spreading through my entire body like a slow wave. The second thing I noticed was also the beeping nearby. It was a regular, gentle rhythm coming from the monitor beside the frame, keeping track of my heart, my breathing, and my pulse which prompted me ​to open my eyes slowly.​The room was simple, painted in light shades and the window blinds were mostly pulled down but I could see that the sun was up. A small television screen hung silently on the wall near the corner. On the bedside table sat a tray with a fresh glass of water, alongside a vase packed with bright pink, white, and red flowers that someone had placed there with genuine care.​And right next to me sat Isabelle.​She was fast asleep in the chair beside my bed, her body resting in a slightly awkward position with her arms folded on the bed edge. Her soft hair fell loosely across her shoulders, completely u

  • After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me   A Second Chance

    ISABELLE'S POV:​My thoughts kept drifting back to Damon and our history together. I remembered the very first day we met when we were just kids playing in the wide backyard. I remembered the sweet promise he made back then, telling me with total confidence that we would stay together forever when we grew up. Then I remembered the painful day years later when I pushed him away, the day I let misunderstandings stand between us, and the day I watched him walk down the driveway without looking back.​I thought about all those long years we spent completely separated from each other. The quiet evenings, the regrets, and the constant feeling that a huge piece of my life was missing. I had spent so much time wondering how things might have turned out if I had just been brave enough to tell him the truth right from the start.​I thought about the sweet moments we shared at his house over the past few weeks. The way he held my hand, the way he smiled whenever I walked into the room, and the w

  • After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me   Waiting for Damon

    ​ISABELLE'S POV:​The hospital waiting room was plain and ​I sat in a hard blue plastic chair near the wall, my hands resting in my lap, my eyes fixed completely on the large set of doors that led into the surgical room. I had been sitting in that exact spot for several hours. I had not slept a wink. I had not touched a bite of food. I had barely shifted my position at all. I just sat there, staring at those double doors, waiting for a doctor to step out and give me an update.​Damon was in surgery. He had lost a lot of blood back at the cabin, and the medical team had rushed him inside the moment we arrived.​My mind kept circling back to everything that happened at the cabin. I thought about the moment Viktor appeared from the hallway. I thought about the way he pointed the gun right at my face. I thought about how Damon threw himself forward without a second of hesitation, putting his own safety on the line just to keep me out of harm's way. I remembered the exact moment I saw the

  • After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me   Race Against Time

    ​ISABELLE'S POV:​The backup security team and the local police officers arrived a few moments later.​They came through the front door in a single group, flashlight beams cutting through the dim room while shouting clear instructions to secure the area. They took in the entire situation in just a couple of seconds, their eyes moving quickly from me to Damon, and then over to Viktor, who was lying flat on the ground, breathing heavily and nursing his own bumps and scrapes from his fight with Damon.​"Room is clear!" one of the guards called out loudly to the people outside. "We have an injured man in here! Bring the medical team inside right now!"​The next five minutes felt like a fast, overwhelming rush of activity. The security guards spread out to check every single corner of the cabin, making sure the perimeter was completely safe and that no one else was hiding outside in the trees. The police officers stepped inside right behind them, talking steadily into their shoulder radios

  • After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me   A Fatal Mistake

    DAMON'S POV:​I was bleeding.​The pain hit me all at once, a sharp, burning sensation in my side that spread quickly through my whole body. I looked down and saw the stain growing on my shirt, spreading down to the ground. It was moving much faster than I expected, turning into a small puddle with every second that ticked by.​Viktor had managed to poke me with a hidden blade. I had not even noticed he was holding anything. He must have kept it tucked deep inside his sleeve or his boot, waiting patiently for the exact right moment to take a final swipe. He found his chance when I was looking over at Isabelle, making sure she was out of the way. I was so focused on keeping her safe that I let my guard drop for a split second, totally overlooking the small weapon in his hand.​I really should have known better. I should have checked his pockets more thoroughly and made sure he was completely pinned before I turned my head. But my mind was so set on protecting Isabelle from any harm tha

  • After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me   The Gunshot

    ​ISABELLE'S POV:​The gun went off with a sudden, deafening pop.​The sharp sound cracked straight through the cabin and bouncing off the thin walls. I screamed loudly before I could even catch my breath. The loud sound ripped right out of my chest, full of pure surprise and absolute fear.​For one quick second, the whole room seemed to lock in place. Time felt like it completely stopped moving. The air in the house grew still, and my brain simply froze up. I could not get any oxygen into my lungs, my legs felt heavy, and I could barely process what was happening right in front of me. All I could do was stare at the floor as Damon launched himself straight into Viktor.​Damon moved ridiculously fast, throwing his whole weight against the taller man before Viktor could even steady his aim. The force of the jump sent both of them crashing down hard onto the ground. The sudden impact knocked the silver pistol right out of Viktor's grip, sending it skidding quickly across the room and sli
