Please pick up.

Please, please, please pick up…

“911, what's your emergency?”

Oh thank God!

Thank God, thank God, thank God.

The voice on the other end is calm and professional, completely unaware that I am currently hiding in a bathroom while armed psychopaths are holding an entire restaurant hostage.

“Please,” I whisper, my voice so low I can hardly hear myself. “You have to help us. There are men with guns and they are holding us hostage at—”

  • Five Years Too Late, Ex-husband!   I Have Two Daddies!

    ~ SEBASTIAN’S POV ~I freeze.Maybe I heard wrong. The girl in my arms is Damien's daughter? How is that possible? Is he kidding me? My eyes are locked on the small girl in my arms. I look at her face, searching for a trace of Damien. I look for the shape of his nose or the curve of his jaw.But I don't see him in her. I don't see any resemblance to the man standing a little distance away from me.But then, she looks clearly like the one person I could never forget. She has the same eyes. She even has the same soft, rose petal lips.All in all, she looks exactly like the woman I spent five years trying to erase from my soul. She looks like Daisy.Maddie doesn't notice my shock and she doesn't feel the way my heart is beating faster, hammering against her small chest. She just squeals for joy, her arms tightening around my neck.“I have two daddies now!” she says, her voice bright and happy. She looks at Damien, then back at me, her eyes sparkling with excitement. “But you're my fav

  • Five Years Too Late, Ex-husband!   In The Middle Of A Cafeteria

    ~ DAISY'S POV ~It feels as if the air in the room has been drawn out. I can hardly draw it into my lungs.Damien stands there, his gaze pressing on me, while my world is spinning out of control. He is offering me a lifetime but it feels like a heavy chain.“I know nine months sounds like a long time, Daisy,” Damien continues with a low voice, his voice soothing like he is trying to calm me. “But I can find medications to slow the progression of Mason's condition. I have access to experimental drugs from abroad… we can keep him stable and buy him the time he needs until the child is born and we have that cord blood.”I stare at Damien, my mind a messy web of thoughts. I know he is only trying to help me and I can see the sincerity in his eyes and the way he looks at Mason with genuine care.He is offering a part of himself to save a child that isn't even his. He is offering me a way to escape Sebastian's shadow forever.But I cannot help but feel uneasy with his words.A cold shiver r

  • Five Years Too Late, Ex-husband!   How About I Offer My Sperm?

    ~ DAISY'S POV ~Damien brings a form and gives it to me. He wants me to sign it so that he will go on with whatever treatments he claims Mason needs.My hands are shaking so hard I can barely hold the pen. The paper in front of me is a blur of medical words and warnings, but I don't care.How should I even care at that moment? I don't even read the print and I don't ask about the risks. I just see Mason’s pale face in my mind and the urgent look in Damien's eyes.I sign the consent form immediately and scrawl my name across the bottom line, the ink smudging as my tears hit the page. I am filled with a panic that I can't turn off.Damien doesn't waste a single second. The moment the pen leaves the paper, he grabs the form and disappears back into the treatment room, the door swinging shut behind him with a dull thud.I am left standing outside the room with Maddie. I start to pace, walking back and forth. One step, two steps, turn. One step, two steps turn. I am hoping. I am praying.

  • Five Years Too Late, Ex-husband!   More Secrets

    ~ DAISY'S POV ~ The beep of the heart monitor sounds like a countdown in the silence room. Sebastian is frozen. His hand is still gripping the edge of the door, his knuckles so white they look like bone. The pale, broken look on his face from moments ago has changed into a sharper look. He looks at me, his eyes focused on my face. He makes it look as if he is searching my face and he is doing that with a terrifying intensity. But then again, his gaze snaps to his grandmother . “What?” He whispers, his voice barely audible, like a ghost of a sound. “Grandmother… what did you just say?” The Old Madam doesn't look away. She stares at him with those ancient, watery eyes, her chest rising and falling in shallow movements. “What kidney?” Sebastian asks, his voice getting louder and more frantic. He takes a step into the room, his eyes wide. “What are you talking about? Vanessa gave me the kidney. We all know that. Why are you saying Daisy's name?” She opens her mouth to speak.

  • Five Years Too Late, Ex-husband!   A Powerful Secret.

    ~ DAISY'S POV ~Looking back, I remember how happy I was to marry him. When the old madam presented the marriage contract five years ago, I didn't see it as a trap. I saw it as a dream come true. I was all too happy to comply with the wedding at that time. I was foolish, probably because I was young and I was hopelessly, dangerously in love.I had loved Sebastian since I was a little girl. I remember the day the bullies in our own home had cornered me in the garden, throwing mud and calling me a nameless orphan.Sebastian had appeared like a knight. Yes, he was older, stronger and he had chased them away without a second thought. From that moment, he held my heart in his hands.But I had underestimated Sebastian's hatred for me. The marriage wasn't a fairy tale, it was a prison. Sebastian must have believed that I was a gold digger. He probably thought I had twisted his grandmother's head, taking advantage of Vanessa's death to claw my way into the King family fortune.Every time h

  • Five Years Too Late, Ex-husband!   Please, Pretend To Be Daisy

    ~ DAISY'S POV ~I watch them. Damien is walking toward the hospital exit with Mason perched on his shoulders. Mason is giggling, his small hands buried in Damien's hair, looking down at the world with a joy I haven't seen in months.My heart clenches. A part of me wants to run forward, grab Mason and pull him away. I want to refuse this. I want to tell Damien that we don't need his ice cream or his kindness. And the reason is this… they are getting too close and I can see the bond forming right before my eyes. I know how this ends. I know that once Mason's treatment is finished, once the bone marrow is transplanted and he is healthy again, we will have to leave, probably disappear again back into the shadows to stay safe from Sebastian.And I know it will break Mason's heart to lose a daddy twice in one lifetime.But then, I look at my son's face.The paleness is still there, but his eyes are dancing. The obvious, tired look he's carried for weeks has vanished. He looks more alive,
