  • Claimed by my Husband ruthless Uncle    Chapter 107: The Wedding Eve

    Josie’s POVThe safe house had started to feel like a cocoon. The walls were thick, and every night Alexander held me like the world couldn’t touch us, but the world was still out there, victor was still breathing, sarah was still married to him and still carrying her proof like a loaded gun, the Langfords were still pulling strings from the shadows. Yet here we were, two days before the wedding, trying to pretend the storm had passed.I stood in the small sunroom with the wedding dress hanging on the door. It was simple white silk with a soft skirt that skimmed over my stomach. The babies were starting to show now. A gentle curve that made my clothes fit differently. I ran my hand over the fabric and felt one of them kick hard like he was reminding me he was there. Twins. Two little boys the doctor had confirmed on the last ultrasound. I still hadn’t told Alexander the gender. I wanted to wait until the wedding night. A gift. A promise. Something pure in the middle of all the blood

    Alexander’s POV Josie was curled against me on the bed, her hand resting on her stomach like she had done every night since the hospital, I could feel the babies move under my palm when I placed it there, two little lives we had almost lost, two little lives I had almost taken from her once without even realizing it, the guilt sat heavy in my chest like it always did when the lights went out and the past came crawling back.She hadn’t slept much since the attack, the dreams were getting worse, she would wake up gasping and reach for her stomach like she was afraid they were already gone, I held her every time, I told her we were safe, I told her I would protect them, but I knew the real reason she couldn’t rest, it wasn’t just the attack, it was me, it was the lie I had kept for fifteen years, the one she had started to see through the cracks.I couldn’t do it anymore.I turned on the small lamp beside the bed and sat up. Josie stirred and opened her eyes, she looked at me and I saw

    Josie’s POVThe safe house felt smaller every day, the walls were thick and the security was tight but I could feel the pressure building outside like a storm that refused to break. Lily had started therapy the morning after the attack, a quiet woman named Dr. Elena came to the estate twice a week and sat with her in the sunroom, I stayed close the first time just in case but Lily asked me to wait outside, I paced the hallway the whole hour and when she came out she looked lighter somehow, she climbed into my lap and rested her head on my chest.“I told her about the bad man” she said softly. “And how Mommy shot him to save me. She said it’s okay to feel scared and okay to feel proud of Mommy too.”I hugged her tight and felt the tears prick my eyes, my eight-year-old daughter was already learning how to carry the weight of what I had done, she looked up at me with those big eyes that saw too much.“Mommy can we have another baby after the twins? I want a big family, so no one ever fe

    Josie’s POVThe safe house wasn’t safe anymore, the bedroom still smelled like gunpowder and blood even after the bodies had been dragged away. I sat on the edge of the bed with Lily curled in my lap and Alexander kneeling in front of us. His hands were steady when he checked us both for injuries but his eyes were wild. Lily had stopped crying but she kept her face pressed into my neck like she was afraid to look at the world, I stroked her hair and tried to breathe through the cramps that were coming back stronger now, the babies were moving fast inside me like they knew something had almost gone very wrong.Alexander stood up and pulled us both into his arms. “We’re leaving tonight” he said, his voice was low and hard. “Somewhere even deeper, somewhere they can’t reach us, my men are already clearing the next location.”I nodded against his chest. Lily didn’t say anything. She just held on tighter, the little girl who had laughed at the lake this morning was gone, in her place was
