Lila’s POV

Sophia stood in front of me in the cellar, waving the hidden ledger page like it was proof of a crime. Her eyes burned with suspicion. Sebastian looked surprised but stayed calm. I knew one wrong word could ruin everything, so I started talking fast, improvising as best as I could.

“Sophia, please let me explain,” I said, keeping my voice steady. “That page is part of my research for the article. I found several old documents while helping organize the study for Sebastian. I thought

  • Craving My Forbidden Daddy   Blood Never Lies

    Lila’s POVThe letter had arrived three days earlier. Now the man who wrote it stood in our study with a leather folder under his arm. His name was Daniel Hartley. He looked to be in his late forties, with the same steady eyes I had seen in old photographs of my grandmother’s side of the family.Sebastian stayed by the window while I sat at the desk. I kept my hands folded on the wood and spoke first.“You claim you are entitled to part of this vineyard,” I said. “Show me why.”Daniel opened the folder and laid out several papers. Birth records. A faded marriage certificate. Letters signed by my great grandfather. The documents looked old and carefully kept.“My grandmother was the older sister of the woman who raised you,” he said. “She left the family after a quiet disagreement and never returned. The bloodline continued through her. I have the papers to prove it.”I studied each page without rushing. Sebastian remained silent, letting me lead. The room felt still except for the sof

  • Craving My Forbidden Daddy   The Promise Buried in Wine

    Lila’s POVFive months had passed since the night at the east gate. Elias learned to take his first shaky steps between the kitchen chairs. The vineyard changed with the seasons until the rows stood thick and green under the summer sun.I walked the main path slowly each morning, one hand on my stomach and the other holding Elias’s small fingers when he wanted to try walking beside me. Workers waved as they passed. The air smelled of warm earth and ripening fruit. For the first time the land felt completely ours.Sebastian met me near the old oak with a bottle of water and a soft smile. “You should be resting more,” he said. “Doctor’s orders.”“I am resting.” I took the water and drank. “I just needed to see the east rows. They look better than I imagined they could.”He rested a hand on the small of my back. “They do. The soil tests came back strong. We’ll have a full harvest this year if the weather holds.”We stood together watching Elias chase a butterfly that had landed on a low

  • Craving My Forbidden Daddy   When the Storm Ends

    Lila’s POVThe officers finished their questions in the late afternoon. They sat at the kitchen table with notebooks and a recorder while Sebastian stayed close beside me. I told them everything that happened at the east gate, the false message, the confrontation, the fight, the moment Theo turned the knife on himself.One of the detectives closed his notebook and looked at me directly. “Your statement matches the security footage and the physical evidence. You’re cleared of any involvement. Theo’s death is recorded as self-inflicted during an attempted assault. You’re free to go about your life.”I nodded. “Thank you.”After they left, the house felt heavier than it should have. Sebastian stood at the window staring out at the vines. His shoulders were tight. I walked over and rested my hand on his back.“Talk to me,” I said.He kept his eyes on the fields. “I keep thinking if I had handled him differently years ago, none of this would have reached you or Elias or the babies. I creat

  • Craving My Forbidden Daddy   The Last Obsession

    Lila’s POVThe morning started quiet. I walked the short path near the house with Elias in the stroller while the twins made soft flutters under my hand. Six months along and the doctor had ordered only light movement. Sebastian had gone to the far storage barns to check a delivery. Elena was in the kitchen. The new security cameras covered every angle. For a few hours the world felt ordinary again.My phone buzzed with a message from Julian.“Emergency at the east gate. One of the irrigation lines burst and water is flooding the new vines. Can you come look? Sebastian’s phone is out of range.”I read it twice. Julian never asked for help with something small unless it was urgent. The east rows were the ones we had fought hardest to save. I texted Sebastian where I was going, left Elias with Elena, and took the small utility cart down the service road.The east gate stood open. No flood. No broken pipe. Only Theo leaning against the old stone post, thinner than before, wearing plain c

  • Craving My Forbidden Daddy   A Miracle of Three Hearts

    Lila’s POVI woke up in a hospital bed with a plastic bracelet on my wrist and a monitor beeping softly beside me. Sebastian sat in the chair next to the bed, his hand wrapped around mine. Dark stubble covered his jaw. When he saw my eyes open he leaned forward at once.“You’re awake,” he said. “You scared me half to death on that road.”I tried to sit up. He helped me with an arm behind my shoulders. “What happened? I only remember the dizziness.”“You fainted. The doctors ran tests while you were out. They’re coming back soon with results.” His thumb brushed over my knuckles. “How do you feel now?”“Tired. A little shaky. But better.” I looked around the small room. “Where’s Elias?”“Elena has him at home. She called twice already. He’s fine.”A soft knock sounded and the doctor stepped in with a folder. She was the same woman who had seen me through the early weeks with Elias. Her face was calm, but her eyes held a quiet smile.“Good to see you awake, Lila,” she said. “We found the

  • Craving My Forbidden Daddy   The Final Confession

    Lila’s POVThe prison waiting room smelled of old coffee and floor cleaner. I sat on a hard plastic chair with Sebastian beside me. His hand rested on my knee. Neither of us spoke much while we waited for the guard to call our names. Elias was safe at home with Elena. This visit was only for us.“You don’t have to go in if you change your mind,” Sebastian said quietly.“I need to hear it,” I answered. “Whatever he wants to say, I want it finished.”A guard opened the heavy door and led us down a narrow hallway. The visiting room was small and bright with fluorescent lights. Theo already sat on the other side of the thick glass. He looked thinner than I remembered. His hair was longer and uneven. Dark circles sat under his eyes. When he saw us he leaned forward and picked up the phone on his side.Sebastian and I sat. I lifted the receiver first.Theo’s voice came through thin and rough. “You came. I wasn’t sure you would.”“You said you had the truth about my grandmother,” I told him.
