Chapter 5

Aurora’s POV

I paused in shock. For a second, I thought I’d misheard him.

“You want me to… what?” My voice came out shaky, thin as glass.

On the other end of the line, Jace’s reply was slow, deliberate. “Come back to me. As my wife. With your son.”

The breath hitched in my chest, sharp and unsteady. My grip on the phone tightened until my knuckles burned. For one absurd heartbeat, hope dared to flare in me, did this mean he believed me at last? That he had accepted Alex?

“Jace…” My throat constricted. “Does that mean you’re saying… he’s yours?”

Silence stretched, weighted and suffocating. Then his voice slid through, calm and lethal.

“I don’t give a damn if the boy is mine or not. That isn’t the point.”

My heart cracked all over again. Of course. Stupid me. For a second, I thought maybe he’d changed. That maybe the man who once swore I was his entire world still lived somewhere behind that steel façade. But this wasn’t about Alex. It was never about Alex.

“You don’t care?”

  • Claimed By The Billionaire Ex   Unwelcome Company

    Chapter 60: Unwelcome CompanyJace’s POVThe shower had helped more than I expected.Steam still clung to my skin as I walked out of the bathroom, towel in hand, hair damp, the faint peppermint scent of the soap lingering around me. The penthouse was quiet—quiet in that way it always was, where the silence felt too big, too polished, too empty to belong to an actual person. But tonight, for the first time in a long time, the emptiness didn’t press on me the same way.I couldn’t stop thinking about Alex.Everything with him had gone better than I expected—better than I’d allowed myself to hope. I thought he would be wary or shy or uninterested, but no. He took to me like he’d known me for years. The memory of his laugh still sat warm in my chest. The little way he’d grinned when he’d called me Magic Man like he truly believed it, like he thought I could pull something out of thin air.I found myself smiling like an idiot at the thought.I hardly smiled since Aurora left, the only peopl

  • Claimed By The Billionaire Ex   The Loudest Distraction

    Chapter 59: The Loudest Distraction Aurora’s POV I decided to settle with a Netflix movie before my thoughts occupied my brain. It was like everything was on repeat. Like I couldn't get Jace and Alex out of my head. It annoyed me but I understood why after all.I shook my head, I had to control my thoughts and feelings. I shouldn't be focused on Jace at all. I shouldn't be thinking about what could be especially when it could no longer be. And if a movie wasn't going to help me snap out if it then I was going to use the best possible method I could ever think of and by best I meant, a human.I picked up my phone and texted my best friend turned sister.'You up?' I sent.Within minutes, my phone rang.I didn’t even bother looking at the caller ID. Only one person responded to texts with calls this fast.I swiped immediately.“Kels?”“Allô, ma chérie! Comment tu vas?” she shouted cheerfully in French.I laughed at the dramatic warmth in her voice.“Hello to you too. And really? Full

  • Claimed By The Billionaire Ex   What Could Have Been

    Chapter 58: What Could Have BeenAurora’s POVToday was only supposed to be an introduction between Jace and Alex. That was all I planned. A simple meeting. Controlled. Short. Easy to escape from if it turned awkward.I never imagined Alex would cling to him like a magnet the moment they met and call him magic man at every chance he got.I didn’t imagine Alex would tug on his sleeve, or giggle at everything he said, or forget I existed for entire minutes because he was too busy dragging Jace around like he’d known him forever.And Jace… God. I didn’t expect Jace to be good at this. Not this good.He’d been nervous at first — stiff, careful, too aware of how fragile Alex looked. But once Alex started bossing him around like he owned him, something in Jace loosened. He let himself be dragged from game to game. He let Alex talk his nonsense about magic and spells and slide races. He didn’t snap. He didn’t sigh. He didn’t tell Alex to stop or be quiet.He listened.He listened to every ri

    Chapter 57: Alex and Jace(Jace's POV)He dragged me toward the ring toss, but on the way he tripped a little. I caught him under the arms before he fell.He blinked up at me, surprised. “You fast.”“You almost hit the ground,” I said.He giggled. “Mommy say I clumsy.”I looked over my shoulder. Aurora was watching us, but she didn’t look anxious. Just attentive.“You ready to win a prize?” I asked him.He threw the first ring—and missed entirely. It rolled away.The second one hit the post and bounced off.His shoulders dropped.“Aww…”“Hey,” I said. “Try again.”He looked unsure. “But I miss…”“So? Try again.”He lifted the third ring slowly… then tossed it.It landed perfectly.His entire face exploded into joy. “I did it! I did it! I did it!”He jumped in place, nearly dropping Renard.The vendor handed him a small sticker sheet and he pressed it to his chest proudly. “I won!”“You did,” I said, kneeling beside him. “You didn’t give up.”He smiled so widely his eyes almost disappe

  • Claimed By The Billionaire Ex   Learning Him

    Chapter 56: Learning HimJace’s POVAlex’s hand was small in mine—tiny, warm, soft. He held on with this trusting little grip that made my chest tighten in a way I wasn’t prepared for. He looked up at me with bright eyes, still smiling like my hand was the best discovery he’d made today.And I… I was trying to remember everything I’d studied like a madman for the past twenty-four hours.A day ago, I had locked myself in my home with my laptop and typed how to talk to a four-year-old into every search bar possible. I watched lectures, read articles, skimmed about a hundred pages of blogs written by parents who apparently had a saint’s level of patience. I studied what kids his age liked, what they didn’t, what games they were drawn to, how long their attention span usually lasted, how you were supposed to respond if they got overwhelmed.I even practiced smiling in the mirror because one article said children could sense tension like animals did.But the moment he stood in front of me—

  • Claimed By The Billionaire Ex   The First Official Interaction 

    Chapter 55: The First Official Interaction Aurora’s POVFor a moment, none of us spoke.Alex stayed half-hidden behind my leg, peeking at Jace with wide, uncertain eyes. Jace crouched in front of him, hands loosely braced on his knees, waiting with a patience that made something tight in my chest unwind just a little.But the silence stretched too long — the kind of silence that made shyness grow instead of fade.I cleared my throat softly.“Alex, sweetheart… don’t you have something you want to tell magic man?”He shifted, his little fingers gripping the fabric of my jeans. I could feel his nervous wiggle through my leg. Then, finally, he whispered, barely audible, “’ank you.”Jace blinked, surprised. “You’re thanking me? For what?”Alex’s eyes lifted slowly, his voice still soft but certain.“For giving me your organ.”The way he said it — completely earnest, completely convinced — made warmth rise in my throat. Jace let out a quiet breath, the corner of his mouth tugging into a sm
