“Sometimes the past doesn’t knock. It kicks the damn door open.” By Unknown.The noise of the auction faded as the four of them, Noah, April, Ryan, and Tally drifted out onto the veranda. The lighting was softer here. It was a rare moment of peace in a room otherwise humming with chatter and clinking glasses.Tally eased into a cast iron chair, her hand resting on the top of her belly. Ryan hovered protectively beside her, his eyes flicking over the crowd through the doors leading back inside.April reached for a canapé from a passing tray, her fingers trembling slightly before she pulled back.“You know,” Ryan said, looking at her with a fond smile, “the girl I knew four years ago wouldn’t have handled what you just did back there.” His voice was quiet but admiring. “She would’ve hidden behind her father and not said anything.”April raised an eyebrow. “Thanks?”“It’s a compliment,” he added. “You’re not that girl anymore.”She smiled, small but sincere. “No. I’m not.”Noah wrapped an

The door clicked shut behind them, the echo of it falling heavily into the quiet of the brownstone. April leaned back against it, heels still on, lips slightly parted, her breath uneven.The public takedown of David. Willow’s touchy little display. The buzz of eyes watching her as she walked away like her father had taught her to.Noah turned the lock and looked at her, his jaw tight. His hands were shoved into his pockets like he was holding something back.“You didn’t push her away,” April said quietly.Noah exhaled, stepping in closer but not touching her yet. “I thought about it. Believe me, I wanted to. She makes my skin crawl. But if I’d made a scene after you’d already shut David down, it would’ve been chaos. Press was there. Your board was there. It would’ve made it look like you lost control of your personal life.”April’s eyes flicked up to meet his. “You were thinking about optics?”“I was thinking about you.” He paused, the heat between them sharpening. “And I’m sorry if it

“The longer you carry a secret, the heavier it becomes.” By Unknown.April sat in the small, warmly lit exam room, her fingers clasped tightly in her lap. She hadn’t realized she’d been holding her breath until the doctor gave her a gentle smile and set the clipboard aside.“Well,” the doctor said softly, “you’re definitely pregnant. Eight weeks along, based on your last cycle.”April exhaled slowly, her body tipping slightly forward as though the words physically pushed into her.Eight weeks.Which meant it had happened the third time Noah hadn’t used a condom. She should have known she couldn’t get lucky three times running.Her fingers moved to her stomach, flat still, but not for long.“Are you alright?” the doctor asked kindly.April nodded. “Yes. Just… processing.”She wasn’t surprised, not really. She’d known. Subtle but undeniable changes had occurred: morning sickness, tender breasts, and exhaustion that no amount of coffee could cure. She’d quit coffee the moment she suspecte

“You never really know how heavy a secret is until you try to let someone help you carry it.” By Unknown.April didn’t know how long she sat in the car before her breathing evened out. At some point, the trembling stopped. Her hands were still clamped tight around the steering wheel, but her mind had gone eerily quiet.Not numb. Just... still.The kind of stillness that came after the worst of the crying, when your body stopped trying to pretend it could hold everything together.Kayla’s voice was still there, though. A broken record scraping her insides.She had to get out of here.The drive back to Harrington HQ passed in a blur. April didn’t remember the turns, the lights, the people. She just... arrived.She walked toward her office, her body moving on autopilot. She kept her eyes low, hoping no one would stop her, praying she wouldn’t run into anyone…“Jesus, April.”April halted, startled at the voice.Poppy.She stood outside the copy room holding a takeaway salad, brow furrowi

“A real man can’t stand seeing his woman hurt.” By UnknownApril was asleep. Or pretending to be. Either way, she hadn’t moved from the couch in nearly an hour, her face turned into the cushion, her knees drawn up like she was trying to disappear.Poppy had covered her with a blanket, fetched her a glass of water, and then sat beside her, pretending to scroll on her phone while her mind reeled.Pregnant.April was pregnant.And she was falling apart over some batshit receptionist who had the nerve to lie to her face and twist the knife deep. Poppy didn’t need to meet Kayla to know exactly what kind of woman she was. They were a dime a dozen—pretty, venomous, and always sniffing around power like it was a perfume they could bottle for themselves.But Noah? Poppy didn’t know him that well, but she knew the way he looked at April. She’d seen it every time he was around her. Like he wanted to get her alone so he could strip her naked. No way in hell that man was screwing his receptionist

“Sometimes the silence says more than the words we’re too afraid to speak.” By Unknown.Noah stared at his phone, thumb hovering over the screen for longer than he wanted to admit. The message he’d typed was simple:Hey Poppy, Can you send me your address? Please. I need to see her. — NoahIt took less than a minute for the three dots to appear.Poppy: She’s still asleep. I’ll meet you out front so you don’t wake her. 27 Grafton. Just come.Noah was already moving.Traffic blurred past his windows as he made the drive, but he couldn’t focus on any of it. He was too busy replaying the look on Kayla’s face when he’d fired her. Too busy wondering how much April had believed. How deep the damage ran.And whether he could repair it at all.When he pulled up in front of the modest townhouse, Poppy was already standing at the edge of the porch, arms crossed, eyes sharp.He parked, cut the engine, and stepped out quietly.“Hey,” he said as he approached.Poppy nodded, her voice low. “She’s ins

“Some truths don’t hurt because they’re lies. They hurt because they were hidden.” By Unknown.Noah was still holding April’s hand when he heard the front door open.April stirred slightly, lifting her head from where it rested lightly against his shoulder. But she didn’t let go.Footsteps followed, along with the sound of a little girl’s voice giggling and asking for snacks.Noah glanced toward the door just as Poppy stepped into the living room, one hand gripping a reusable grocery bag, the other resting protectively on the head of a small girl with bright eyes and dark blonde curls that framed her face like a halo.Jade.He’d heard the name mentioned in passing before. But he hadn’t met her.Until now.The girl looked up, curious and cautious, her tiny hand still gripping Poppy’s fingers.She was maybe three, maybe four—he couldn’t quite tell—but there was something familiar about her. The shape of her chin. The slope of her nose.And then it hit him.Max.Jade’s little face was pra

Noah drove them home after dinner. Poppy had made pasta, and the five of them. They sat around her small table like they were just a normal little family. Jade had insisted he help her grate the cheese. All the while, April had grinned at him.The kitchen had been warm and golden, smelling like garlic and home cooking.Now the brownstone was quiet, dimly lit with only a few lamps on. April had gone to change into pajamas. Noah waited downstairs, still half-stunned by everything that had unfolded over the last twelve hours. His body was heavy with exhaustion, but his mind was wide awake.She came down in one of his old t-shirts and a pair of soft sleep shorts, her hair loose around her shoulders. She looked young and tired and heartbreakingly beautiful.They didn’t speak at first. They just moved around each other with a new kind of understanding. She handed him a glass of water. He brushed his fingers against hers. Nothing loud. Nothing rushed. He knew he needed to talk and tell her ab

The sun filtered gently through the tall windows of the Harrington family estate, casting soft light onto the white floral arrangements that lined the garden path. April stood just inside the drawing room, her hands clasped tightly in front of her as she stared out at the rows of white chairs set up on the lawn. Everything looked perfect.But it wasn’t nerves twisting in her stomach—not quite. It was something deeper. Quieter. A solemn ache that this moment, this day, was finally hers. Theirs. A peace she hadn’t known she was waiting for pressed into her chest like a soft ache. It was overwhelming and still, somehow, comforting.They weren’t getting married again. They were already married. But today was a promise. A real one. A clean slate, with no secrets between them. A vow, this time, given by choice, not circumstance. Not blackmail.Behind her, the door creaked open, and Poppy stepped in with a smile. “You ready?”April turned, her mouth curving with emotion. “Almost.”Poppy walk

April stepped into the house with a sigh, dropping her purse on the hallway table and slipping off her heels with a grimace. Her feet ached, her shoulders were stiff, and she hadn’t even had the energy to take off her blazer before Noah’s voice floated from the living room.“You’ve got thirty minutes to get ready,” he called. “Dinner reservations. And before you argue—we’re celebrating your win.”She frowned, stepping further into the room. He was standing by the bar cart, dressed to kill in a black suit with no tie, his shirt unbuttoned just enough to show a glimpse of skin. He looked... devastating.April blinked. “Wait, what win?”Noah came over, kissing her cheek lightly. “You, standing up for yourself. Your win. You put them in their place and walked out with your head high. We’re celebrating.”Her heart softened, but her pride flared slightly. “We lost the Paris group acquisition because of that damn leak.”Noah smiled patiently. “And yet, you didn’t let them rattle you.

The elevator doors opened with a low ding, and April stepped onto the executive floor of Harringtons with her head high and her spine straight.She could feel it immediately… something was wrong. It was the shift in the air, the whispered voices that stopped when she passed, the subtle tension strung too tight across the office. April had a feeling she was going to be very pissed before the morning was over.Her heels clicked a sharp rhythm as she moved toward her office. Neil was already waiting by the door, a folder clutched in one hand, a look on his face that said this wasn’t going to be a normal day. She could already feel her blood pressure rising, the heat in her temples building with each silent glance tossed her way.“Neil,” she greeted calmly, her voice smoother than she felt.“Can I speak with you?” he asked, voice low and tense.She nodded, pushing open the door to her office. The moment it shut behind them, Neil dropped the polished professionalism he wore like armor.“Th

The morning light spilled lazily across the bedroom, catching on the mess of tangled sheets and bare skin. Noah stirred first, blinking against the soft gray light filtering in through the curtains. He shifted, his body deliciously sore, and smiled when he felt April tucked against him, her hand splayed possessively across his stomach.For a long moment, he just lay there, breathing her in. Her scent clung to the sheets, warm and sweet, threaded with the faintest trace of last night’s passion. His chest tightened, a slow ache he welcomed. She was here. She was his.He tilted his head, pressing a kiss to her hairline. April murmured something incomprehensible, shifting closer, her thigh sliding up to hook over his hip.“Careful,” he whispered against her temple, amusement threading his voice. “Unless you want a round two before breakfast.”April cracked one sleepy eye open, her mouth curving into a wicked smile. “And miss food? Never.”Noah chuckled, sliding out from under her carefully

Noah kicked the bedroom door shut with a soft thud, never loosening his hold on her. April giggled against his mouth, her hands fisting in the fabric of his shirt, pulling him closer, her body molding to his.He didn’t rush. He kissed her slowly, deeply, his tongue teasing her lips until she opened for him, tasting her with a hunger that simmered beneath the surface. His mouth devoured hers, coaxing, teasing, claiming. Every stroke of his tongue was a promise: tonight, he was going to worship her.April whimpered softly, pressing into him. Her scent surrounded him, sweet and clean, a heady mix of her shampoo and her skin. He couldn’t get enough.Noah’s mouth traced the corner of her lips, down the line of her jaw, savoring the faint taste of her skin. He pressed kisses to the hollow beneath her ear, nipping lightly at her earlobe, feeling her shiver in his arms.“Noah,” she breathed, fingers sliding up into his hair, tugging lightly.He growled low in his throat, hands sliding to the b

Noah got home first.He hadn’t planned it that way, but a meeting ran short, and he found himself pulling into the driveway an hour earlier than normal. It wasn’t even properly dark yet. The brownstone looked quiet from the outside, the porch light just flickering on with the motion sensor.He shut the door behind him and leaned against it for a second, exhaling slowly.He still hadn’t told her.Four days.Four days of smiling and kissing her forehead and pretending he hadn’t threatened to destroy half her family behind her back. The guilt sat heavy on his chest, a slow, grinding weight he couldn’t shake off.Noah ran a hand through his hair. It had felt right at the time. It was right. David and Porsha had needed to hear it. Needed to be scared. But it didn’t change the fact he should have told April. Not because he thought she’d be angry. She probably wouldn’t be. But because this… them… was supposed to be built on trust now. No more secrets. No more half-truths, even if they were me

“Some threats aren’t made in anger. They’re made in love. The kind of love that would burn the world to keep someone safe.” By Unknown.Noah didn’t tell April he was going.It was early. He said he was leaving early for a meeting at the office—but he was lying. Not that he felt guilty about it. If he had told April where he was really going, she would’ve tried to talk him out of it. Would have worried, argued, softened his anger.He didn’t want to fight with his wife. He just wanted to protect her.So he got into his car and drove across town, heading in the opposite direction to his office. The streets were mostly empty, the gray morning light making everything look a little harsher. His chest was tight, his hands flexing on the steering wheel. He hadn’t slept much. Not after what had happened to April yesterday.Porsha had pushed her.True, the reason April had ended up in hospital hadn’t been because of the push, but that didn’t matter. The bitch had no right to touch his wife.And

“Intimacy is not purely physical. It’s the act of being seen and known for who you truly are and still being loved.” By Unknown.The light seeping through the curtains was soft, filtered by clouds, giving the room a quiet, gray glow.April blinked, adjusting to the new morning. Her body felt heavy, but not in a bad way, mostly just sleepy. She liked being in the warm cocoon of Noah’s body.Noah’s arm was draped across her waist, his chest warm against her back, his breath soft against her neck.She could feel the rise of him against her hip. Morning wood. She grinned. The most innocent of problems. But it stirred something in her, a reminder that she was still here. Still whole. Still wanted. Her hips shifted slightly.Noah groaned.“You’re awake,” he murmured, voice still thick with sleep.“Maybe,” she replied.He nuzzled closer, nose brushing her shoulder. “You’re dangerous when you start shifting like that.”She did it again. “You’re the one pressing against me,” she whispered, a fa

The silence between them wasn’t heavy. Noah didn’t say anything right away. He just crossed the room, taking a seat beside her on the bed and reached for her hand, his thumb brushing across her knuckles.April let him hold it. Let herself lean a little closer. Her body still felt like it didn’t belong to her. Her nerves frayed. Her head throbbed from the strain of pretending she was okay. They just looked at each other.Noah reached out and brushed a strand of hair off April’s face. His hand lingered along her cheek before he leaned in and pressed a kiss to her temple.“You scared the shit out of me,” he whispered.April smiled weakly. “I scared myself.”He leaned his forehead against hers. “Don’t do that again.”She let out a small breath, tears in her eyes. “Not really up to me.”“I know. But still. Don’t.”April turned her face slightly and kissed him. Soft. Slow. It wasn’t a kiss of desperation or apology. It was a connection. Real and quiet.He pulled her gently into his arms, and
