SARAH’S POV

Dex’s family home was a modest, two-story house nestled against a row of towering pines. As I pulled up the gravel driveway, my hands gripped the steering wheel a little tighter.

I smoothed down the front of my coat and stepped out into the crisp afternoon air, carrying a heavy basket of fresh fruit and baked goods Rosa had insisted on preparing. When I knocked on the oak door, it was opened by Clara, Dex’s widow. Her face was pale, the dark circles under her eyes telling the fa

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Eye To Eye With The Matriarch

    Across from us, sitting on the backwards-facing leather bench, Julian was meticulously inspecting an encrypted satellite transceiver Marcus had handed him before takeoff. My brother’s sharp, slate-gray eyes moved constantly—from the digital screen in his hands to the passing tree lines, analyzing every curve of the road with the twitchy paranoia of a man who spent four years looking over his shoulder."Perimeter security on the Vance estate is high-grade," Julian observed, his voice raspy against the quiet interior of the car. He tapped the screen, bringing up a wireframe schematic of the compound ahead. "Twelve armed patrol guards on rotation. Facial recognition cameras at every access point. Private security contractors hired out of London, not local Swiss police.""They're Alistair’s men," Tyler rumbled, his deep voice carrying a cold, vibrating bass that filled the cabin. "My uncle has been running the Vance family’s European security division for fifteen years. He treats my mothe

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   A Ghost Of A Different Kind

    For four years, as far as the global press, the corporate board, and even Tyler were concerned, Evelyn Rider was a ghost of a different kind.Yet there her name stood, lit up in crisp, digital typography on an active server in Geneva, executing a sophisticated, military-grade wipe command on the hidden offshore accounts of Vanguard Alpha."Marcus," Tyler’s voice broke the suffocating quiet, dropping into a register so low and dangerous it sounded like tectonic plates grinding together. "Explain to me why my mother's credentials are currently dissolving four hundred million dollars worth of encrypted financial logs."Marcus was typing feverishly, his fingers flying across his mechanical keyboard in a frantic, rhythmic drumbeat. Lines of green diagnostic code reflected off the lenses of his glasses. "It's a multi-factor authorization trigger, Mr. Rider. The moment Sarah and Julian’s biometric signatures cleared the main patent vault in Vaduz, a secondary tripwire alerted an offshore nod

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   A Trap For Mother Hen

    The executive boardroom on the eightieth floor of the Rider Group tower had never felt so charged. Through the floor-to-ceiling glass, Manhattan stretched out beneath a crisp mid-morning sky, but inside, the focus was entirely turned toward the sleek titanium console embedded in the center of the mahogany conference table.Tyler stood at the head of the room, his jacket off and sleeves neatly cuffed at his forearms. On his left, Marcus tapped rapidly away on an encrypted terminal, routing secure server connections through three separate firewalls in Zurich and Frankfurt. On my right, Julian leaned over the table, his eyes sharp and focused as he connected the silver flash drive directly into the terminal hub."Connection established with the Vaduz banking consortium," Marcus announced, his voice steady despite the high stakes. "Vanguard Alpha's primary ledger is live. The system is prompting for the dual-biometric clearance protocol."Julian looked across the table at me, a subtle nod

    "Alan," Tyler called out quietly without looking back.Alan materialized from the shadow of the rose arbor, slipping his tablet into his suit coat. "Sir?""Stand down the tactical teams at the North Gate," Tyler instructed smoothly. "Issue clear security access credentials for Julian Bennett. High-level perimeter authorization. He stays in the West Guest Wing."Julian let out a dry, breathy chuckle, rubbing his tired face with a calloused hand. "I haven't slept in a room with a real lock or a bed softer than an alley bench in forty-eight months, Rider. You don't need to give me the presidential suite.""You are my wife's brother," Tyler replied, stopping at the base of the terrace steps and turning to face Julian directly. His dark eyes held no trace of suspicion now, only the cold, pragmatic respect of one warrior recognizing another. "Which makes you family. In this house, family doesn't sleep on benches. And you don't call me Rider. It's Tyler."Julian stared at him for a long mome

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Returning Home

    The damp river mist hung low over the marina as the first faint grey light of dawn bled through the clouds. The old wooden boathouse at the edge of the property looked ghost-like against the water, its weathered cedar shingles dripping with morning dew.Tyler walked half a step behind me, his long dark coat unbuttoned, his hand resting lightly against the small of my back. Neither of us had slept. We had spent the remaining hours before sunrise pulling the authenticated hospital records from the Zurich clinic, complete with the chief surgeon's logbook and the anesthesia timestamps from October 14th five years ago.I pushed open the rusted latch of the boathouse door. The heavy timber groaned on its hinges.Julian was standing by the high, narrow window overlooking the docks, a paper cup of black coffee held tightly in his hand. The instant the hinges creaked, he spun around, his hand instinctively dropping inside his faded leather jacket. His eyes flared with sudden, dangerous heat th

  • Divorced With His Heir In My Belly   Who Is The Murderer?

    The silence that followed Julian's accusation was so heavy it felt as though the oxygen had been completely drained from the air. The hum of the idling security SUVs and the distant rustle of pine needles in the wind faded into a dull, static hum.I stood frozen on the damp gravel path, the crisp midnight air cutting right through the delicate ivory silk of my wedding gown. My eyes darted between the two men standing before me—the brother I had spent four agonizing years mourning, and the husband whose ring now rested on my finger.Tyler didn't move, nor did his expression falter into guilt or panic. But the air around him shifted into something volatile and terrifyingly dangerous. His jaw locked, his dark eyes narrowing into sharp slivers of ice as he stared down my brother."You're swinging a rusted blade, Bennett," Tyler said, his deep voice carrying a lethal, bone-chilling calm that echoed through the trees. "And you're relying on a paper trail forged by a dead man.""It's not a f
