After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me The Boy Who Kept His Promise
ISABELLE'S POV: The rooftop felt wonderfully peaceful under the night sky. Damon sat right beside me on the bench, his arm resting comfortably around my shoulders. Inside the house, our two children were fast asleep in their beds. Athena was three years old now and already possessed a boundless energy that kept us on our toes all day. Little August, our sweet baby boy, was just over a year old and still had a habit of falling asleep the moment he was cradled close. We had tucked them into their rooms hours earlier. Athena had insisted on hearing three separate bedtime stories and two lullabies before she finally closed her eyes, while August drifted off in my arms within minutes. Now, after a long day of parenting, we finally had a few quiet moments to ourselves. "Do you remember what I told you when I was six years old?" Damon asked softly, breaking the silence. I smiled to myself, feeling a warm rush of affection. Of course I remembered. That memory had lived in my
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me A Brother for Athena
DAMON'S POV:I stared straight at her, unable to move for a moment.Her words bounced around in my head over and over again. Another baby. A second child. Our family was growing."Another baby?" I repeated, my voice dropping down to a rough whisper.She gave a slow nod, her brown eyes shining with happy tears."Yes, another baby."I looked down at the tiny yellow onesie in my fingers, then back up at my wife's glowing face. I glanced over at Athena, who was still busy stacking her blocks on the rug, completely unaware of the news.A deep wave of emotion rushed through my chest, melting away any leftover shadows from our past. It was a profound sense of pure happiness, deep gratitude, and overwhelming love for the life we were creating.I stood up from the couch, reached down, and pulled Isabelle into a tight, secure embrace."We are really having another baby," I murmured against her hair, my own voice cracking as my eyes grew wet."Yes, we are," she whispered back.I lift
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me A New Blessing
ISABELLE'S POV:Three full years had passed since the night the Black Hand brought terror to our doorstep.So much in our world had shifted and grown since then.Serena had moved out of the mansion a little over a year ago. She had found a stunning penthouse in the heart of the city, a spacious place with floor-to-ceiling glass windows that offered a sweeping view of the Thames. She had taken her time decorating every room, filling the space with tall green plants, overflowing bookshelves, and soft, comfortable furniture that practically begged you to sit down and relax. She still came back to visit us at least once a week, often stopping by more than that. She had truly become the absolute best aunt in the world, showering Athena with new toys, sweet treats, and the type of special affection that only an aunt could provide.Damon's parents had turned into regular guests at our home as well. Martha and Victor Varek had made remarkable strides over the last three years. They had m
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me I Am Finally Free
SERENA'S POV:I did need someone. I needed a family to anchor me. And now, against all odds, I finally had one."I spent so many years running," I whispered, looking down at my hands. "Running from my past. Running from the men who raised me. Running from the syndicate. Running from myself. I always thought that if I just kept moving fast enough, I would eventually outrun the pain. But I never did. The pain always caught up to me in the end."Damon did not interrupt or offer empty platitudes. He just sat there and listened to every word."And then I came here," I continued. "I met Isabelle. I watched how she loved you, how she loved Athena. And I realized I had been running for so long that I forgot what it felt like to simply stand still."I paused, gathering my thoughts."You gave me a place to stand still," I told him. "You gave me a real home."He reached across the surface of the table and took my hand in his. His fingers were steady and warm against my skin."You gave yo
After The Divorce: Ex-Husband Regrets And Begs Me Serena's Redemption
SERENA'S POV:I woke up in my bedroom at the mansion and, for the first time in some years, my hand did not automatically reach for the pistol hidden under my pillow.I just lay there for a moment, letting the stillness sink into my bones. The morning light filtered through the room and somewhere down the hall and down the stairs, I could hear the familiar clatter of ceramic dishes, the low and comforting murmur of voices, and the high pitched, joyful shriek of baby laughter. Athena was already awake. Of course she was awake. That little girl woke up at six every single morning like she had an important schedule to keep.I stretched out my limbs carefully. My left arm still felt a little stiff from the cast, even though the doctors had finally taken it off two weeks ago. The jagged scar on my forehead was steadily healing into a thin white line, something I had started to look at as a quiet badge of honor rather than a reminder of pain. My ribs still gave a dull throb if I twiste
