"Elowen!"

Valentina rushed down the stairs and dropped to her knees beside her. Elowen lay motionless on the marble floor, blood trickling from a wound on her forehead and spreading into her hair.

"Oh my God! Elowen!" Valentina cried, gently touching her shoulder. "Elowen, wake up! Please!"

A few people who had witnessed the fall gasped in shock. One woman covered her mouth while another hurried forward.

"Somebody call an ambulance!" Valentina screamed. "Please, help her!"

  • Cheated On by My Husband, Seduced by His Brother   Chapter Eleven. Lysander Is Rich

    "Elowen!"Valentina rushed down the stairs and dropped to her knees beside her. Elowen lay motionless on the marble floor, blood trickling from a wound on her forehead and spreading into her hair."Oh my God! Elowen!" Valentina cried, gently touching her shoulder. "Elowen, wake up! Please!"A few people who had witnessed the fall gasped in shock. One woman covered her mouth while another hurried forward."Somebody call an ambulance!" Valentina screamed. "Please, help her!"A hotel attendant rushed over and knelt beside Elowen. He quickly instructed the others to give her space while another staff member called for emergency medical assistance."Don't move her," the attendant warned. He took a clean cloth from another staff member and carefully applied gentle pressure to the bleeding wound on her forehead, taking care not to move her head.Valentina covered her mouth, tears streaming down her cheeks."What is going on?"The voice came from above. Kieran stood at the top of the staircas

    They sat down together in the warm light of the sitting room. Lysander took the sofa, and his mother settled beside him, close enough to touch but careful not to. Her hands kept moving, smoothing her skirt, reaching toward him and then falling back. The young woman and the boy took the armchairs across from them, and for a while, nobody spoke.The clock on the wall ticked."I am Mia," the young woman said at last, a little shyly. "And this is Noah.""Hello," the boy said, and then, because he could not help himself, "You look just like me."Something moved at the corner of Lysander's mouth, too small to be called a smile. "I noticed."His mother laughed softly and wiped her eyes. "Have you eaten, Lysander? I can make something.""I'm fine," he said. "Thank you."She nodded, though her hands kept moving. After a moment she turned to the other two. "Mia, take Noah upstairs for a while."Mia looked at her mother, then at Lysander. She understood without being told. "Come on, Noah.""But

  • Cheated On by My Husband, Seduced by His Brother   Chapter Nine.. Seeing His Mother Again

    For a long moment, neither of them moved.The suite was very quiet. The air conditioner hummed somewhere above them, and the city lights, thin and far away, painted pale stripes across the carpet. Elowen stood with her back against the wall, her hands still lifted halfway to her face. She kept her eyes fixed on the floor because she could not bear to look at him.Kieran stood a step away. His hand had come up as though he meant to reach for her, but it remained suspended in the air. His lips parted. He searched for something to say and found nothing. He had been angry a moment ago, so certain of his right to be, but now the anger had drained out of him, leaving him with nothing to say.In the end, he lowered his hand.He turned and walked to the door. He paused with his fingers on the handle, and for a second, it seemed he might look back. He did not. The door opened and closed behind him with a soft click, and then there was only the sound of his footsteps fading down the corridor.E

    The bowling lanes at the far end of the lounge were empty. Lysander picked a lane at the opposite side of the room, as far from Kieran and Valentina as the space allowed, and turned to the rack of balls."Pick one."Elowen chose a pale blue ball and weighed it in her hands. "It's heavier than it looks.""They always are."She stepped up to the line, drew her arm back, and let go. The ball rolled slowly, wavered, and slid into the gutter halfway down. She stared at it. "That was terrible," she said."It was." Lysander's voice held a trace of amusement. "You're gripping too tight.""I'm not.""You are."He retrieved another ball and held it out. When she took it, he didn't step back. He stood beside her instead, and his hand covered hers on the ball, warm and steady, shifting her fingers into place. "Looser. Let it leave your hand, don't throw it."Elowen's breath caught. It was only a hand over a hand, and the whiskey was warm in her blood, but she became very aware of how close he was

    Kieran's phone lit up on the arm of the chair. He glanced at the screen. Something shifted in his face, and he turned the phone over before she could see the name. "I have to take care of something." He stood and buttoned his jacket.Elowen nodded. "Mm."He crossed the room. His hand paused on the door handle for a second, as if he might say more. He did not. The door closed behind him. Elowen sighed and lay back on the bed.She remained there for a while, staring at the ceiling. The events of the afternoon kept returning to her mind: Kieran's reaction at the restaurant, the way he had pulled her away from Lysander, and the argument that followed in the suite. He had barely paid attention to her for months, yet the moment he saw her with another man, he suddenly remembered that she was his wife. She turned onto her side and closed her eyes, but sleep did not come.Later that evening, her phone rang. It was the chairwoman's office. "Good evening, Miss Whitmore. I'm calling on behalf of

    Elowen stared at the man standing at the entrance.Kieran?He had said he was traveling, but he had never said where. Of all the cities and hotels in the world, he had walked into the same restaurant as her. For a moment she could only blink, as though the sight might change if she looked again.It did not change. Kieran crossed the room with his brow still furrowed, Valentina half a step behind him, and stopped beside their table."Elowen. What are you doing here?"Elowen blinked, still recovering from the surprise of seeing him."I'm here for a business meeting," she explained. "Whitmore Cosmetics is discussing a distribution partnership with Arden Group."Kieran's eyes shifted briefly to Lysander, who remained seated beside her."With Lysander?"Elowen frowned. "I had a meeting this morning. I ran into him afterwards, and he invited me to lunch."Kieran's expression didn't change, but his gaze lingered on their closeness.Valentina approached them with a smile."Lysander, darling!
