Amara pov:

I returned to Ethan's office, hugging the lunchbox close to my chest.

The office was even bigger than I remembered.

Everything was neat, modern, and ridiculously expensive.

Just looking around made me feel small.

Then I remembered something Maya had told me one evening.

"Every CEO has a private room hidden somewhere inside their office. It's for resting when they work overtime."

Curiosity got the better of me.

I began looking around until my fingers brushed against what looked like p

  • Born of secrets, loved by a King   Chapter 57: I'll Never Let you Go Again

    Ethan's POV"...Why did you lead me on...?"Her weak fists landed on my chest one after another."I thought... I thought we were a thing..."Each word pierced deeper than a knife."You already have someone in your heart..."Tears streamed down her flushed cheeks."So... why?"I tightened my hold around her trembling body as I carried her toward my car."No, little woman..." I whispered, my voice barely audible. "You've misunderstood."She didn't hear me.Or perhaps she couldn't.Her consciousness drifted in and out, clouded by whatever those bastards had forced into her body.She buried her face against my chest, sobbing."It hurts..."My heart clenched."I know.""It hurts so much...""I'm here now.""I don't want to lose you...""You won't."She continued crying until her voice became hoarse.Behind us—"Boss!"One of the kidnappers suddenly shoved a guard aside and bolted toward the forest surrounding the deserted road.He had almost disappeared into the darkness.Bang!A single gu

  • Born of secrets, loved by a King   Chapter 56: Accident

    Amara's POVI didn't remember how I got home.One moment I was standing in Ethan's office, staring at those women's clothes hanging neatly inside his private room.The next...I was pushing open the front door with tears blurring my vision."Mrs. Hayden?"I heard one of the maids call.I ignored her.I couldn't answer.Couldn't trust my voice.I ran upstairs as fast as I could, slammed my bedroom door shut and leaned against it.The tears I'd been holding back finally escaped."Why..." I whispered before covering my face.I walked unsteadily to the wardrobe yanked it open and dragged out my suitcase from the top shelf.It landed on the floor.The loud thud echoed through the room.I threw the zipper open and began stuffing clothes inside without thinking.A dress.A sweater.Another dress.Anything my hands could reachNothing was folded.Everything was thrown in carelessly.The harder I pushed the clothes inside, the tighter my chest became.What am I even doing?" I cried, stopping f

  • Born of secrets, loved by a King   Chapter 54: A Gratitude Meal

    Amara's POVThe house felt unusually quiet.Only the faint ticking of the wall clock and the distant chirping of birds could be heard as I descended the stairs, rubbing the sleep from my eyes.It was only a little past seven.Usually, by this time, Adrian would be racing around the living room looking for a missing sock, while El would quietly wait by the dining table, her schoolbag already packed.Today...The living room was empty.I frowned."Hello?"No answer.I walked toward the kitchen and stopped in the doorway.Ethan stood by the stove, wearing a charcoal-grey shirt with the sleeves rolled neatly to his forearms. An apron was tied around his waist—something I never imagined would suit him so well.He was flipping pancakes with surprising ease.On the counter sat 3 neatly packed lunch boxes.Slices of fruit had been arranged into little flower shapes.I blinked."When did you learn to do that?"Without turning around, he answered,"I've had a very strict teacher."A smile tugge

  • Born of secrets, loved by a King   Chapter 53: Festival

    Amara's POVSaturday mornings were supposed to be peaceful.Mine never were.The restaurant had been unusually busy throughout the week, which meant I had spent most of Friday night checking inventory, balancing expenses, and planning the menu for the coming week. Even after waking up that morning, my mind was still occupied with suppliers, staff schedules, and whether we needed to order more fresh vegetables before Monday.I had barely settled at the dining table with my notebook when I heard hurried footsteps racing down the stairs."Amara!"Adrian's excited voice echoed through the house before he appeared, El close behind him.Both children looked far too energetic for eight o'clock in the morning."What happened?" I asked."We're going to the festival today!"I blinked."We are?""Yes!"I looked from Adrian to El before raising an eyebrow."Who said so?"Adrian suddenly became very interested in the floor."Nobody...""So why are you dressed like you're about to leave?"His grin

    The teacher smiled brightly, completely unaware of the silent panic that had settled between Ethan and me."Oh, wonderful! You're both here." She checked her clipboard. "The Hayden family."I blinked."The... Hayden family?""Yes." She smiled. "Adrian registered your name this morning."Before the teacher could answer, an excited voice cut through the crowd."Mommy!"My eyes twitched what this little rascal was up to be.Ethan glanced briefly at me Adrian came running toward us, El skipping happily beside him.he exclaimed before looking at the teacher. "They're here! I told you they wouldn't miss it."The teacher chuckled." you did not forget to inform your parents."Adrian scratched the back of his head sheepishly."Well..."Then he grinned."I signed us up.""You what?" I asked."For the family games.""Without asking us?""I knew you'd say yes."Ethan folded his arms."And if we'd said no?"Adrian's smile faded"I... I just wanted us to do something together."His excitement fad
