Kian’s POV

I was still holding her tightly and desperately.

Aria’s small frame trembled in my arms, her soaked body pressed against my equally drenched chest. My heart wouldn’t stop pounding. It was like it had just realized what it almost lost and was trying to make up for the seconds it stopped.

She was alive and breathing fine, but I was still scared.

I tightened my arms around her, burying my face into her wet hair. I didn’t care that I was soaked to the bone or that my hands were shaking. I just couldn’t let go.

I had never felt this scared before. Never.

I kept replaying what I saw—the stillness of her body sinking under the water, the way her eyes were closed, her lips pale. The terror that shot through me at that moment had been indescribable. My world had completely frozen.

If I had gotten there one minute later…

Just one minute.

I couldn’t even finish that thought.

I pressed her closer to me, my throat tightening.

This was all my fault.

The distance between us, the silent mi

  • Craving my ex-husband’s twin brother    Chapter 57: He's following us.

    Kian's POVSomething about that guy didn’t sit right with me.He’d been standing there too long, staring like he knew us or was waiting for something. I couldn’t shake the feeling.“Let’s go check,” I said to Diane, already getting up. “Maybe he’s someone we know.”She raised a brow, amused. “Alright, Sherlock. Lead the way.”We stepped outside the coffee shop, my eyes instantly scanning the spot where he’d been.Gone.“Damn it,” I muttered under my breath. “He left.”Diane looked around too, then shrugged like it was nothing. “Relax, it’s probably just some nosy guy. Or maybe he had a thing for my outfit.”I let out a short laugh. “Yeah, maybe.” But I still felt weird about it. Something about his presence had stuck with me, like a shadow I couldn’t trace.Still, I let it go. I had more important things to focus on.I turned to Diane and exhaled. “Thanks again… seriously. I’ve been overwhelmed lately, but you’ve really helped.”Without thinking much of it, I pulled her into a hug.Sh

  • Craving my ex-husband’s twin brother    Chapter 56: Who's the hell is that?

    Kian's POVThe meeting with the Ashfords had just ended. Everyone was standing, shaking hands, filing out of the boardroom in their usual post-meeting chatter. I caught Diane’s eye across the room and gave her a subtle nod. She nodded back — a silent exchange of “we’ll talk later.”A few minutes later, I was already at the coffee shop we agreed on, sitting near the window, waiting. My fingers tapped absently on the table, thoughts clouded with nerves and a million what-ifs.Then the bell above the door jingled, and she walked in as always, confident, stylish, and a little too smug.“Hey, loverboy,” she said with a grin as she slid into the seat across from me.I chuckled and shook my head. “You’re never letting that go, are you?”“Nope,” she said, sipping her drink. “I’m just amused. And honestly? I'm proud too. You finally admitted it. Took you long enough, stubborn ass.”I rolled my eyes. “Can we not make this about your victory speech?”She laughed. “Fine. Fine. Spill. What’s on yo

  • Craving my ex-husband’s twin brother    Chapter 55: I have to tell her.

    Aria's POVMy eyelids fluttered open slowly, and for a moment, I just lay there, still and quiet. The room was dim, the curtains drawn, and everything felt heavy — my head, my limbs, even my chest. A dull ache throbbed behind my eyes, and I winced softly, instinctively curling in on myself.My body felt weak, like I had been dragged out of deep sleep too soon. My head was pounding, and for a second, I contemplated drifting back to sleep until I heard some loud noises downstairs My brows pulled together.Was that Kian? Was he fighting with someone?I blinked against the dizziness and slowly pushed myself up from the bed, planting my feet gently on the floor. My legs wobbled slightly, but I steadied myself. I needed to know what was going on.Why was Kian yelling?With quiet steps, I walked toward the door and opened it slowly. The voices became clearer, sharp, intense and emotional. I couldn’t make out the words, but there was definitely tension.I walked down the hallway, then paused

  • Craving my ex-husband’s twin brother    Chapter 53: Aria please wake up!

    Diane’s POVThe moment Kian screamed Aria’s name, my heart skipped. I had never seen that kind of fear in his eyes—wild, desperate, and raw. Before I could process what was happening, he had already taken off, sprinting across the backyard like a madman.I followed quickly, my heels clicking against the tiles. “Kian!” I called, but he didn’t stop. Then I saw what he saw. Aria, was sinking. Her body was still, her hair floating around her like dark waves in the water.“Oh my God,” I whispered, frozen for a split second.Kian dove into the pool without hesitation. Clothes, shoes—he didn’t care. He swam fast, reaching her in seconds. I could hear the splash, see the way his arms moved frantically to grab her, pull her above the surface.She wasn’t moving.My chest tightened. “No, no, no…”Kian carried her out of the water, soaking wet, her limbs limp in his arms. “Aria!” he yelled, gently slapping her cheek. “Wake up! Please, wake up!”I dropped to my knees beside him, trembling. Water

  • Craving my ex-husband’s twin brother    Chapter 52: I think that's Aria!

    Aria's POVI walked slowly around the mansion grounds, letting the silence wrap around me like a blanket though it brought no comfort. After that conversation with Ava, I couldn’t bring myself to stay at the shop any longer. I told Valerie I wasn’t feeling well and needed to rest, but the truth was... I needed to think. I needed air. Space. Anything to stop this constant weight pressing on my chest.But most of all, I came home because I needed to talk to Kian.My heart was heavy with too many questions—questions he had to answer. What does Diane mean to him? Why is he still so close to her? Why does it feel like I’m being pushed further away every time I try to reach him?Ava’s words wouldn’t stop echoing in my head.“Kian will leave you.”“You’re nothing but a phase.”“He’s only using you.”“He'll dump you.”I bit my lip hard, blinking fast, refusing to let the tears fall. But one slipped down anyway. I wiped it off quickly, sniffling. The thing is—Ava wasn’t completely wrong. Kian'
