At 11:47 p.m. I received another message.

MIDNIGHT. VELVET ROOM. COME ALONE IF YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO YOUR FATHER REALLY IS.

I stared at the screen. Someone was determined to destroy whatever remained of my sanity.

“Absolutely not,” Dorian said from his hospital bed.

I looked up. “You read my messages?”

“You’ve been staring at your phone for ten minutes, and every time it vibrates, you look like you want to throw it through a window.”

“That’s not an answer.”

“No, I’m not reading your messages. I’

    “Mom!”I shouted into the phone, but the call had already ended. I tried calling back. Nothing. My twin had found her, and whatever he wanted, he wasn’t afraid to hurt her to get it.“Zaire, give me the phone,” Dorian said. I handed it over, and he immediately called Elias. “Trace the last call. I want every available unit searching the old clinic. Now.”Elias nodded and hurried away. I turned toward Dorian. “Did you hear what she said?”“Every word.”“She said I shouldn’t let you see the last page of the register.”His expression became unreadable. “Then there’s something on that page she doesn’t want me to know.”“Or something someone doesn’t want you to know.”He looked at me. “Do you think I have something to do with this?”“I don’t know anymore, Dorian. That’s the problem.”He nodded slowly. “I understand.”I wanted to be angry with him, but the fear in my chest was becoming unbearable. “My mother is out there with a man who looks exactly like me. A man who hates you. And I don’t

    “He’s the reason I lost my family.”Those words kept repeating in my head. I looked at Dorian, who was waiting for me to explain the phone call. “What happened, Zaire?”I handed him my phone. He read the message, and his expression immediately changed. “Your twin called?”“Yes.”“What did he say?”“That his name is Nathaniel. And that you’re the reason he lost his family.”Dorian stared at the screen, then looked toward the emergency ward. “Adrian has been using that name for years.”“Which means the man who called me isn’t Adrian.”“Or someone is deliberately making us believe there are two different people.”I rubbed my forehead. “I can’t do this anymore.”Dorian moved closer. “Listen to me. Whoever that man is, we will find out.”“What if he’s right?”“About what?”“About you being the reason he lost his family.”Dorian’s jaw tightened. “Zaire, I didn’t even know you existed until recently. How could I have taken something from him?”I wanted to believe that. But there were too man

    “That is enough!”Adrian’s gun remained pointed at Isabelle. Nobody moved. I stared at her, struggling to understand what she’d just said.“A twin?” I repeated. “I have a twin brother?”She nodded, tears running down her face. “Yes, Zaire.”“Where is he?”“I don’t know.”I laughed, but there was no humor in it. “Of course you don’t.”“Please, let me explain.”“Explain what? That you gave away one son, hid another, and somehow forgot to mention that I was born with a twin?”Adrian stepped forward. “She didn’t forget. She was paid to forget.”Isabelle flinched. I turned toward him. “What are you talking about?”Adrian lowered his gun slightly. “Your mother gave birth to twins at the old clinic. One boy was registered as Zaire Laurent. The other was supposed to be recorded as stillborn.”My heart pounded. “Why?”“Because two children threatened the agreement. The Veyl family needed one Laurent heir to bind the families together. Two boys would complicate everything.”Dorian moved closer

    “Ask your mother what she did to her firstborn.”I read the message again. Then I looked at the woman sitting opposite me. “Tell me the truth.”My mother shook her head. “Zaire, please.”“Is Adrian my brother?”Her lips trembled. “Yes.”The answer hit me harder than I expected. Dorian stood beside me, his injured shoulder making his movements slow. “How long have you known?” he asked.My mother wiped her tears. “I suspected it years ago. But I never knew what name he was using.”“That’s not an answer,” I snapped. “What did you do to him?”She looked down at her hands. “When Nathaniel was born, the Veyl family wanted him dead. Your father told me he could hide him. He promised that Nathaniel would grow up somewhere safe.”“And you agreed?”“I was terrified. I had just given birth, and men were threatening to take my child. I thought sending him away was the only way to save him.”“Then why did he become Adrian?”“I don’t know. I swear I don’t.”I laughed bitterly. “Everyone keeps sayin

    I stared at the photograph until my eyes began to hurt. The man looked like me. Not just a little. He had my eyes, my nose, my lips, and the same crescent shaped birthmark on his wrist. It was like looking at an older version of myself.“Zaire?”Dorian’s voice pulled me back. I handed him my phone. He studied the picture, then looked at Isabelle. “Do you know him?”Isabelle covered her mouth. “Oh, God.”My heart dropped. “Mother, who is he?”She sat down slowly. “His name is Nathaniel Laurent.”The name meant nothing to me. “Laurent?”“He’s your mother’s first child. She gave birth to him before she met Gabriel. His father was a man from the Veyl family.”I looked at Dorian, who looked equally confused. “Which Veyl?” he asked.Isabelle shook her head. “I don’t know. Your grandfather made sure that part of the records disappeared.”I laughed bitterly. “Another missing father. Another hidden child. Does anyone in these families know how to tell the truth?”Nobody answered. I turned back

    “Say that again.” My voice barely came out.Dorian was breathing heavily on the other end of the phone. “My mother says Cassian is her biological son. He was born before me, but she was told he died.”I looked at the man standing a few feet away. Cassian. His expression had changed, the confident smile gone. “That’s not true,” he muttered.I tightened my grip on the phone. “Dorian, how can he be your brother if he was the missing baby?”“Because Isabelle had two children. Me and Cassian. But she was made to believe Cassian died.”Cassian suddenly laughed. “Your mother has always been good at telling stories.” He stepped closer. “Give me the documents, Zaire.”I moved backward. “You’re Isabelle’s son?”“Don’t pretend you’re interested in my family.”“You’re the child everyone thought died in the fire.”His eyes hardened. “And you’re the idiot who found out.”I glanced at the documents in my hand. The original agreement had been hidden for years. My father had protected it, even though
