The first thought that came to mind as I woke up was the last thing that happened last night.

Aldwin and me?

I kept replaying the scene in my head. The look on his face. The pain. I had given up on wanting him. Three months without him looking at me, and he suddenly comes for it.

My sheets still smelled of him, and strangely, I was beginning to crave him.

The buzz of my phone snapped me out of my thoughts.

“Hello?”

“Why do you sound so down?” Lisa asked.

“I'm just waking up.”

    "I understand why you would say that." The doctor pushed the report aside and folded his hands on the desk. "But I can only tell you what the tests show. If you want to be certain, we can run the test again. But I can promise you, the result will be the same."Aldwin stared at him for a long moment, his jaw tight. Then he nodded."Run the test again," Aldwin said without blinking. "Make it quick," he added."Give me about thirty minutes. I'll be back with the result," Doctor Marsh said, then left the office, leaving Aldwin and Ray."Are you going to wait here until he comes back, or do you want to go check on Zane? You haven't seen him since the surgery," Ray said.There was a hint of compulsion in his words, as if he wasn't saying it because he wanted Aldwin to see his son, but because he wanted to see how Zane was doing himself.Aldwin hesitated for only a few seconds, then he nodded."Let's go," he said and stood up, following Ray, who was already at the door.The second test took

    Ray's brow furrowed. "How odd? Should I call the hospital and file a complaint?"Aldwin shook his head slowly. "No. I'll speak with the doctor myself."He folded the report and tucked it back into the envelope, then set it on the corner of his desk. His hands were steady now, but his mind was racing, running through possibilities he didn't want to consider.Ray stood there for a moment, waiting for more information that Aldwin wasn't ready to give. When it became clear that nothing else was coming, Ray nodded and walked toward the door."I'll have the car ready whenever you want to go to the hospital," Ray said.Aldwin nodded, and the door closed behind Ray.He sat alone in his office for a long time after Ray left, staring at the envelope on his desk. A thousand what-if's stayed on his mind.Aldwin arrived at the hospital a moment later. He needed some time to clear his mind and calm the rage that was building inside him. He had called the doctor before leaving, so the doctor was awa

    Zion opened his mouth to speak, but nothing came out."He's been in surgery for over an hour," I said quietly, not looking at Zion. "He lost so much blood that he turned pale. His leg was swollen twice its size."Zion turned to face me now, and the tears he had been holding back finally spilled over. "I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."I didn't say anything. Lisa stayed quiet, not wanting to interfere, but I knew how angry she was at Zion for his greed, which had put Zane in a difficult position.Aldwin stepped closer to Zion, lowering his voice so only the two of them could hear. "You're going to sit here and wait. And while you're at it, you pray that your brother wakes up. And when he does, you're going to explain to him why you did what you did tonight. Not to me – I don't want to hear anything you've got to say. To him."Zion nodded, wiping his eyes with the back of his hand. He walked over to the row of chairs and sat down two seats away.Aldwin walked back to where Ray was waiting.The

    "What are you doing here? How did you find me?" Zion asked, shocked to see Ray standing outside.He craned his neck to look around, immediately sensing that Aldwin might be close by. Had they been following him? He thought."You'll leave with me right away," Ray said, ignoring his questions. "Your father's orders," he added, seeing Zion's silent reluctance. He dared not refuse.Zion turned to look at the brunette who was watching."Leave," he said plainly.The brunette stared at him, confused, her brows furrowing."Didn't you hear me? I said leave. Now," Zion said sternly, seeing that the woman was hesitating.She dressed herself properly, then opened the door to leave. "Asshole," she said, slamming the door."Where is he now? My dad?" Zion asked, turning back to Ray."Come with me," Ray said, and began walking away."Why can't you just say something?" Zion called out as he stepped out of the car. "Of course you don't expect me to just leave my car here," he called again to Ray, who

    The next few minutes felt like hours.They brought Zane out of the car. They moved him onto a backboard and secured him with straps. Even from the top of the cliff, I could see how still he was – how his arms hung limp at his sides, how his head didn't move when they lifted him.Please be okay, I whispered, praying silently as they carried him out.The paramedics moved fast now that they had him on a flat surface. The woman cut his shirt open with a pair of trauma shears, while the man checked his pulse and shone a penlight into his eyes."Pupils are reactive," the man said. "He's got a pulse, but it's weak."The floodlight was bright enough that I could see everything. And that was when I noticed it.Zane's face was pale. The colour had drained out of him completely. His lips were almost white, and there was a blue tint around his mouth that made my stomach drop."Let's get him on the monitor," the woman said.They moved him onto the stretcher in the back of the ambulance and hooked

    Lisa lowered herself to the ground, ignoring the dirt. She gently leaned into the car through the window she had just damaged."Ouch!" she gasped, as a sharp edge of glass cut into her skin."Take it easy," I said, and felt bad that I was only standing there watching.Lisa stretched her arm blindly, her fingers scraping against the dashboard before finding Zane's shoulder.I heard Zane cry out from inside."Did that help?" I called."No," he gasped. "It made it worse," he mumbled."I can't reach the buckle!" Lisa gasped, her shoulder wedged against the doorframe.She slid deeper inside, her fingers finally brushing the hard plastic near his hip. She pressed the release button with her thumb, but it wouldn't budge. The dashboard had crushed forward and pinned Zane at an angle, jamming the seatbelt tight."Stop," Zane groaned. Lisa pulling on the belt was making it worse. "It's stuck. Just leave it."Lisa pulled her arm back out, panting, and looked at her hand with blood streaking from

    **MATTHEW** “Is she with you?” Aldwin's deep voice came through the line. “No, Sir. She asked me to leave. She's spending the night at her mom's,” Matthew explained. “Are you stupid?” Aldwin asked in a terrifying tone. “She asks you to leave, and you leave? Do not come back here without my wife,

    “I hear you, baby, I hear you. And if at any point you feel like you can't hold on anymore, I want to be the first you call. I'll have you out of that sham of a marriage in a heartbeat. It's barely been a week since you said ‘I do’ and already this?” She squeezed me tighter, stroking my hair. “Yo

    Matthew watched me from the rearview mirror, blinking back the tears that pooled in my eyes. I struggled to hold them in, but my composure had a will of its own. “Ma'am, you still haven't told me exactly where we are heading,” he said, glancing back at me. “To my mom's. You have the address. L

    Aldwin was sitting on a chair beside the table, his hair messy in a way I’d never seen. He bit his lip in ecstasy, his hands firmly gripping the sides of Benny's head. Her hair was down and just as dishevelled. Aldwin was clearly lost in it; he threw his head back, eyes shut. His shirt was unbutt
