REINA I raised my head to find my husband, Ethan walked into the living room, arms tucked together with my step sister as I clutched tightly on the wiper I had in my hand as my heart wrenched in pain at the sight. “You’re back….” I tried to ignore the sight of my husband being so close with another woman and tried to welcome him warmly but he slammed a file on the table, Interrupting me coldly. “Sign it.” He commanded as I saw the smirk on my step sister’s face. My gaze diverted to how she held onto Ethan. This wasn’t the first time I have seen them been so close. I have had to endure the sight of them always together for the past two years even when he was married to me. I bent down to pick the file and opened the driest page. It read Divorce agreement! The file slipped off my hands due to choke. “What the hell are you doing?! Sign the fucking papers and get out of my house, you filthy whore!” My husband breathed in rage, impatience tinged his voice as I raised my head slowly to look at him. “I can’t….”I replied in a shaky voice. “I can’t sign it Ethan. I…” Before I could complete my statement, he rushed towards me and grabbed my neck in a state of frenzy. “Ethan, please. I really can’t….” He gripped harder to my neck, making it impossible for me to speak further while I held onto his hand, looking to remove his hand but he was too strong, too angry. Just what have I done to make Ethan hate me so much? “What makes you think I am giving you a chance, you whore?” He seethed. I tried to breathe with his hard grip on my neck as my thoughts drifted to the moment when the doctor had told I had conceived twins two days ago. I have been looking for the perfect time to tell Ethan the Good news. But he has been out on a business trip. And now, he was back. But instead of me getting the opportunity, I was served a divorce paper out of the blue. “I am preg…..” “Shut the hell up and sign the damn paper! Your presence in my life is so suffocating!” He yelled at me and flung me on the nearest sofa. I quickly sat up and fell on my knees in front of me. I could hear the giggling of my step sister now. The conniving witch. “She is just so shameless. First she got into your bed in order to become the lady of the Walter family. Now she is begging to keep that position.” Ravenna chuckled mockingly. I quickly sprang up from my feet. “I didn’t get into his bed intentionally and you know it Ravenna! I was also drugged too like him and I we ended up spending the night together!” I defended. Even though I have rang this in Ethan’s ears for the past two years, he never believed me. “And why didn’t say no when my grandfather forced us to get married after that incident? Uh?” Ethan asked with a pissed expression. “Because….”I stopped halfway because I know he would never believe my reason. This man, who has only seen me as a manipulator for the past two years won’t believe I have loved him before we had spent a night together. “Answer me!” Ethan roared as I flinched, forcing to hold back the tears that threatened to spill at that moment. “Because I love you, Ethan. I love you…” “Another word about you loving me and I swear I am going to kill you!” He pointed angrily at me as I pressed my lips together in fear and bowed my head. No matter what, I needed to keep my kids safe. First, I need to secure my position as Mrs. Walter or I’ll lose them. When the doctor told me of my pregnancy, he also told me the underlying condition one of the fetus. It had a heart disease and would need a critical surgery that would cost fortunes. That was why I needed Ethan. Leaving was no option. I raised my head slowly to meet his gaze to find him pointing a picture to my face. It was a picture of me with another man in a hotel room. “This…” “Is you whoring with some man.” Ethan returned as I shook my head. “I swear to you Ethan. I didn’t…” “You want to deny?” “This isn’t…I will never sleep with other men!” I cried out. “Oh shut up! The evidence is right here for everyone to see.” Ravenna sneered in rebuff. When our gaze met and she winked coyly at me. I realized this was her doing. Two days ago, I had gotten a call from Ravenna to come save her at a hotel. Even though I and Ravenna didn’t have the best sibling relationship, she was still my sister. The moment I had entered the hotel room, I had lost consciousness. When I woke up, I was in bed naked and I couldn’t help but think what had happened. It seems Ravenna had intentionally set her up. “Ravenna set me up, Ethan! She asked me to come to the…” “Shut up, you liar!” Ethan slapped me as I fell on the sofa. I immediately sprang up again. I would not be brought down so easily. I needed to fight for my kids. If Ravenna wins this round, Ethan would never believe the kids are his. Worst case, he would ask to wait till they are born to perform a DNA test. What my child needed isn’t a DNA test, but an operation. And Ethan would never help treat it if he feels there is a slight possibility that the kids might not be his. This is how heartless he is towards me. But I had never stopped loving him even for a day. Asides from that, Ravenna was going to do everything possible to kill my unborn children during the period of pregnancy. “You never listen to me nor investigate whenever I get to tell you a thing! Why Ethan!” “You have never meant anything to me! You are just a filthy whore my grandfather forced me to marry! The two years conditions he gave me are up, now sign the damn papers!” Ethan retorted angrily as my tears intensified, hoping he would just let it pass and listen to me. “I have something to tell you, Ethan.” I said in a pleading tone. “To hell with you and your words, Reina. Now sign the damn papers.” He pointed at the file as I closed my eyes and instinctively moved my hand to my stomach. “Sign it, whore.” Ravenna’s sly voice cut into my thoughts as I opened my eyes slowly to find her grinning. “It’s high time I take my place as Mrs. Walter. The position you stole from me.” She said slyly. “I never stole…” Ravenna pushed me before I could say anything as my tummy hit the edge of the table. A sharp pain sprang from the hit as my eyes widened in shock. My kids! “What were you saying? Hmm? Let me hear you try to claim Ethan as yours again!” She pulled on my hair as I cried, still reeling from the pain of her push. She let go of my hair when Ethan gently asked her to let go. That was when I felt something sticky between my legs. Blood! I was bleeding and my children were at risk of dying!!! “Ethan…Take…me….to…the….doctor…..please.” I whimpered as I gazed up to Ethan while sprawled on the floor, weak and helpless. Ravenna walked to me and used her heel to press on my stomach. “You’re bleeding uh? How about we intensify the rate of bleeding?” She intensified her weight on my tummy. “Noooo!!” I cried but Ethan only watched as Ravenna laughed out hysterically. “Let her be.” Ethan said to her when the damage had been done as Ravenna stepped back, looking angry. “Babe!” She whined as Ethan rubbed her cheek. “It would be a hassle if she dies here, you know that?” Ethan kissed her forehead to pacify her while I whimpered in pain. When Ethan finally turned to me, I thought he had wanted to help me but as he squatted, he picked my second finger, placed it on my blood on the floor, and kneaded it on the divorce papers. My shock knew no bounds as I stared at him. “I am going to go out now with Ravenna. And the moment I get back, I don’t want to see your filthy self in this house. Do you understand?” He said coldly. “No, No, No, Ethan, your….” He slapped me again as I fell, this time moving was hard as the pain from my tummy numbed me. “Go to hell, Reina.” He said and stood up. I watched with blurry eyes as they walked away. “Please….” I pleaded for help continuously but none came.Reina “Do you want a new car? Or a new apartment?” Ethan teased. “Anyone, my love. A Lamborghini won't be bad, you know.” I turned to face him, and there it was, the smile I had come to know and love over the years. It was the smile that had carried me through the darkest days, the one that had reassured me when I didn’t know how to move forward. The evening was calm and beautiful qne Andrew was at a friend’s house for a sleepover, and Ethan and I were alone for the first time in a while. Alone, but not lonely. We were never lonely when we had ourselves. “I’m looking,” I said softly, walking toward him. “And I see a family that’s been through hell and back, and yet we still survived it.” Ethan reached out to pull me into his arms and held me tight as if he was scared to let me go. “We have always been strong. It was just a matter of time before we realized it.” I rested my head on his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart. This was home. This was everything
Reina It was a morning like any other, except it wasn’t. I had just received the news I had been waiting for, hoping for, but still uncertain if it would ever come true. I had gotten another job. It was a job that would challenge me, push me out of my comfort zone, and finally allow me to make a real name for myself in the world I had always longed to be part of. As I stood in the kitchen, staring at the email, I could not stop the tears that filled my eyes. I had worked so hard for this moment, and now that it was here, I was overwhelmed with gratitude and disbelief. “Reina? What’s wrong?” Ethan asked, stepping into the room. His voice was soft, and his concern was evident in his eyes. I couldn’t speak at first, so I just handed him my phone, pointing to the email. He took it from me, his eyes scanning the screen. His face lit up as he read the words. “Wait… you got it? You really got it?” I nodded, my throat tight. “Yes. It’s real, Ethan. They offered me the position. I t
Reina The day had finally come. The day I had been both dreading and hoping for. The day Ethan and I would renew our vows. I had spent so much time imagining what it would feel like, but now that the moment was here, I was filled with excitement and a little nervousness. After everything we had been through, I was not sure how I would feel standing up in front of our friends and family, saying the same vows we made years ago. But this time, I was going to say them with more meaning, more depth, and more love than I ever had before. Ethan had gone above and beyond to make this day perfect, and I had already walked into the garden where it would all happen. It looked like a dream. “Mommy, you look beautiful!” Andrew said, his eyes wide with admiration as he helped me adjust my dress. I laughed softly. “Thank you, baby. You look very handsome too.” He beamed in his little tuxedo, looking just like his father. When Ethan walked in to check on me, I could not help but smil
: A New Beginning (Ethan POV) --- I never thought I’d feel this nervous again. The last time I felt anything close to this was the first time I asked Reina out. But now, standing in our living room with the small box in my pocket, I felt like a teenager unsure if the girl would say yes. Andrew was asleep in his room, and Reina was curled up on the couch, reading a book. Her hair was loosely tied back, and she was wearing one of my old sweatshirts. She looked so comfortable, so at peace, and for a moment, I just stood there, watching her. “Why are you staring at me like that?” she asked, not even looking up from her book. I chuckled nervously. “Do I need a reason to stare at my wife?” She finally looked up, raising an eyebrow. “No, but it’s weird when you’re just standing there silently. What’s going on?” I took a deep breath and walked over, sitting beside her. “Reina, can we talk?” She frowned, closing her book. “Is something wrong?” “No, nothing’s wrong,” I assured her. “In
Ethan “ A therapist? We are going to see a therapist, Ethan?” Reina blurted out and I had to calm her down that it's for the better. “Yes. I made that decision and I have already paid for a session. It is a good thing and I think our marriage will get better.” “Oh dear. I'm just scared.” *** Sitting across from Reina in the therapist’s office felt a little weird and I was trying to keep up. This was the first time we had actually met with a therapist about us. The therapist, a calm woman in her mid-50s named Dr. Laura smiled gently at us. “Thank you for coming today. The first step to healing is often the hardest, so I commend you both for being here.” I glanced at Reina, who gave me a small, nervous smile. “We are ready,” I said, squeezing her hand. “Good. Why don’t we start with why you’re here? What made you decide to seek therapy now?” Dr. Laura asked. I looked at Reina, silently asking if she wanted to go first. She nodded and took a deep breath. “I think we h
Reina Evans was at my house again. This time, I was very convinced that he had something off his sleeves. How can someone who I haven't seen in years suddenly show up in the new country where I relocated to? Has he been stalking me all these years? Evans stood at the door, his hands shoved in his pockets, and today he looked so confident in himself. But, I was here to destroy whatever confidence he had. I had hoped I would see the last of him after his first visit, but here he was again, uninvited and unwelcome. “What are you doing here again, Evans? Haven't I told you that I don't want you around me?” I thundered and my pulse was racing. “I needed to talk to you,” he responded calmly, despite my raging anger. “I don’t think we got to finish our conversation the last time.” “There’s nothing left to talk about,” I said, stepping out onto the porch and closing the door behind me. I didn’t want Ethan or Andrew overhearing any of this. “Reina, please,” he said, his eyes pleadin
