ENEMIES TO LOVERS Chapter 111 A New Secret, Two Little Hearts
By the next morning, the house still felt dipped in the soft sweetness of last night’s discovery, like the walls themselves were holding the secret close. Brielle woke slowly, wrapped in Jaxon’s arms, her hand resting on her stomach instinctively, already protective, already dreaming. She shifted slightly, and Jaxon stirred beside her with a sleepy hum, brushing his lips against her temple. “Morning, sweetheart,” he whispered, voice low and warm. She smiled into the pillow. “Morning.” He tightened his arm around her waist. “How are my girls?” Then paused. “Or… boys. Or one of each.” He lifted his head. “Actually how are you?” “I’m good.” She brushed her nose against his. “Really good.” His eyes softened with a tenderness that still melted her every time. “I still can’t believe it. Another baby.” She blushed at his quiet awe. “I know.” “And today,” he said, shifting onto his side to fully face her, “we get to tell the twins.” Just hearing that made her heart race, not with
ENEMIES TO LOVERS Chapter 110 Another Tiny Miracle
The house felt different that night, quieter, warmer, filled with the soft glow of lamps and the faint scent of apples from the pie cooling on the counter. Outside, the early evening wind brushed against the windows, but inside, everything felt wrapped in a soft cocoon of peace. Jaxon had built a small blanket fort in the living room, something Emma and Mason, now energetic five year-olds, had begged him for all week. The twins were curled beneath it now, each holding a stuffed animal, their sleepy giggles echoing as Jaxon read them their favorite adventure story. Brielle stood in the doorway, hand resting lightly on the frame, watching the three of them with a full heart. The sight did something to her, something tender, warm, and achingly sweet. Jaxon looked up and caught her watching. The smile he gave her could've melted the whole world. “We’re almost done,” he whispered. Emma, hearing him, popped her head out. “Daddy! We aren’t done yet. You didn’t do the dragon voice.” “Y
ENEMIES TO LOVERS Chapter 109 “Five Years of Magic”
The backyard looked like a dream, streamers of soft blue, pink, and gold fluttered between the trees while balloons bobbed lazily in the warm breeze. Brielle stood at the patio door for a moment, taking in the sight she and Jaxon had created: a perfectly mismatched celebration filled with everything Emma and Mason adored. A giant bubble station. A craft table covered in glitter jars. A mini obstacle course that Jaxon swore was “safe enough.” And the centerpiece: a huge picnic blanket with a big handmade sign reading Happy 5th Birthday, Emma & Mason! Brielle smiled, her heart swelling. “Five,” she whispered to herself. “How did that happen so fast?” “Because they refuse to stop growing,” Jaxon murmured behind her, slipping his arms around her waist and pulling her back against his chest. She melted into him instinctively, her smile widening. “You did all this,” she said softly. “I just made cupcakes.” “Brie,” he murmured against her cheek, “you made cupcakes for fifty people. T
ENEMIES TO LOVERS Chapter 108 ( Jaxon’s POV)
Before Brielle Hartley ever stepped foot back into Willow Creek, before the shock of seeing her in the farmers market hit him like a punch to the lungs, Jaxon Reed had already been living with a quiet, persistent ache he never once admitted out loud. People thought they knew him, confident, steady Jaxon who helped at the community garden, repaired fences, laughed easily, lived simply. But no one knew about the nights he drove the long road behind the high school for no reason except that it was where he used to see her. Or the mornings he stood in front of the mirror and wondered why he still remembered the way she said his name. Or the way his chest tightened every year she didn’t come home. Most of all no one knew he had been waiting. Not actively. Not expectantly. But deep down, in a quiet corner of his heart that refused to close, he had been waiting for Brielle without even realizing it. The year before she returned, Jaxon threw himself into work, early mornings repairin
ENEMIES TO LOVERS Chapter 107 Five Years of Forever
The morning sunlight spilled gently through the kitchen windows, warming the wooden floors of the home Jaxon and Brielle had built together, literally built, down to the last cabinet handle and porch beam. Five years had passed since the day they first held Emma and Mason in their arms, and sometimes Brielle still woke up stunned at how much her world had changed. The house was full now full of soft laughter, soft footsteps, and soft chaos. The kind that made her chest warm every day. Today, though, felt especially perfect. Because today was quiet. Too quiet. Brielle paused halfway through pouring coffee, listening. No thudding footsteps. No arguing over cereal. No tiny squeals of “MOMMY HE TOOK MY TOY!” Just… silence. Which, in a house with five year old twins, was cause for immediate alert. She set down the mug. “Jaxon?” He looked up from the stove where he was flipping pancakes, hair sticking up adorably. “Yeah?” “Where are the kids?” A slow smile spread across his li
ENEMIES TO LOVERS Chapter 106 Just Us Again
The house was finally quiet. For the first time all day. Brielle closed the front door softly, leaning against it with a long, tired exhale. Jaxon’s parents had picked up the twins an hour ago, an overnight stay for Emma and Mason’s first full “grandparents’ adventure.” The moment the door clicked shut, silence settled over the house like a warm blanket. A rare silence. A precious silence. The kind they hadn’t felt in… well, exactly a year. Jaxon appeared from the living room, barefoot, hair slightly messy, wearing a fitted charcoal T-shirt that clung to him in ways that always made her pulse misbehave. His smile was slow and warm as he crossed the room toward her. “They take the twins?” he asked softly. She nodded, dropping her purse onto the entryway table. “They did. Emma walked right to your dad like she owned the place.” Jaxon chuckled, sliding his hands into his pockets as he leaned against the wall near her. “Our little girl is getting too brave.” “And Mason w
