For a second, I thought maybe my eyes were lying.

That I’d stepped into someone else’s life. Someone else’s heartbreak.

But no.

The lady was real, and I wasn't imagining things.

Perched confidently on Nathan's lap like she was born there. Her lips still glistening from the kiss she’d stolen. Her hands roaming places I hadn’t even dared to think about.

And Nathan?

Leaning back, relaxed,like I wasn’t standing there with my heart in my hands.

I didn’t even know I’d dropped the dress until I heard

    IVY’S POVThe decision settled in my chest quietly.“I’ll keep the baby.”The words didn’t echo. They didn’t need to. They simply existed—steady, firm, mine.The doctor smiled, immediately switching into professional mode, explaining things I barely registered at first. Foods I needed to eat. Things to avoid. How the first trimester would be exhausting, emotional, unpredictable.Then she cleared her throat lightly.“And intimacy is safe,” she added, glancing between us. “As long as you take it easy and listen to your body.”Heat rushed to my face.I risked a glance at Nathan.He was smiling.Not the restrained, polite smile he gave investors. Not the dangerous one he wore in boardrooms.This one was… unguarded. Almost boyish.His hand found mine without asking. His thumb brushed my knuckles, slow and grounding, like he needed the contact as much as I did.When we left the hospital, he didn’t even ask.He lifted me into his arms like it was the most natural thing in the world.“I can w

    IVY’S POVWhite.That was the first thing I noticed.White walls. White sheets. A sharp, sterile smell that burned my nose the moment I breathed in. My head throbbed like someone had taken a hammer to it, and when I tried to move, a dull ache spread through my body.Hospital.The realization hit slowly, then all at once.I blinked, my lashes fluttering as the room came into focus. Machines beeped softly beside me. An IV was taped to my hand.“What—” My voice came out hoarse. “What happened?”“You fainted.”Nathan.I turned my head sharply toward the sound of his voice. He was standing beside the bed, jacket off, sleeves rolled up, his hair disheveled in a way I’d never seen before. His jaw was tight, his eyes fixed on me like I might disappear if he blinked.Memories rushed back in fragments—The elevator.The girl.Her outstretched hand.Then… nothing.“I…” I swallowed. My throat felt dry. “Why am I here?”The doctor stepped forward, clipboard in hand. “Mrs. Blake, you experienced a

    NATHAN’S POV I was halfway through signing a document when the sound hit. A sharp gasp. A chair scraping. Then— A body hitting the floor. “Hey—!” I stood up instantly. People were already moving, voices overlapping, confusion erupting in the hallway just outside my office. I pushed past my desk, irritation already simmering— Until I saw her. Ella. She was standing stiffly near the elevator, her face pale, her hand hovering in the air like she’d just reached for something she shouldn’t have. “Move,” I snapped. She didn’t. “Nathan, I didn’t—” I stepped around her. And that was when I saw her. Ivy. Collapsed on the marble floor. My chest seized. For a second—just one—I couldn’t breathe. Her body was too still. Her lips slightly parted. Her face drained of color in a way that made something cold and vicious crawl up my spine. “No,” I muttered, already moving. I dropped to my knees beside her. “Ivy.” Nothing. I looked up slowly. Ella wa

    Brian’s guy dropped me off at a place I’d never been but somehow felt perfect for how wrecked I was—quiet, dim lights, soft music, no eyes watching. Brian was already waiting, leaning back on a bar stool like he owned the whole place. “You said you wanted to drink,” he said gently when he saw me. “So—here.” I nodded, even though my head was pounding from crying, not alcohol. My makeup could pretend to hold me together, but it couldn’t hide the fact that I’d fallen apart. Brian ordered something light, something he clearly thought I could handle. Turns out… I couldn’t. One sip. Two. By the third, the room was already moving. My chest felt warm. My eyes blurred. Everything in me loosened like someone had untied all the strings holding me upright. “Wait—wait, Ivy, what the hell?” Brian leaned toward me, eyes wide. “Can you even drink?” I blinked at him, my vision scattering. “I… I drink water,” I mumbled. “For God’s sake.” He ran a hand through his hair, exasperated and worrie

    I had barely taken three steps up the stairs when a familiar voice drifted from the foyer. A voice I wished I would never have to hear inside this house. “Oh, Ivy. You’re here.” My entire body stiffened. I turned slowly… and there she was. Amy. Tall, polished, dressed in a dangerously short silk dress that showed more cleavage than fabric. Her smile was soft, innocent even — but her eyes were sharp, calculating, and way too comfortable in Nathan’s home. Behind her, two delivery men held a huge gold-wrapped box. Of course. Of course she would be here today of all days. My heart stumbled in my chest as my gaze flicked to Nathan, who had just stepped out of the hallway. His expression changed the moment he saw her. A subtle softening. A warmth he never used on me. “Amy?” he said, and his voice — God — it held something familiar. Something intimate. She practically floated toward him. “Happy birthday,” she cooed, grabbing the gift from the delivery guy

    I decided to do something special for Nathan. I didn't know his preferences so I asked Theresa for help. I decorated his room until it began to glow. Soft golden fairy lights trailed the walls. Rose petals were scattered delicately across the floor and bed. A modest but beautiful cake sat on the nightstand, and in my hand,fresh white lilies. His favorite. I’d asked Theresa, of course. I didn’t know it myself. I checked the time again. 6:42 p.m. Any minute now. My heart pounded like a teenage girl waiting for her crush, and I hated that it felt like that. It’s not because you love him, I reminded myself. You’re just being kind. Anyone would’ve done the same. Except… no one had. Not in three months. Not even once. Only me. A knock at the door. “Ma’am,” Theresa called gently, “Mr. Blake just arrived.” My fingers curled tighter around the bouquet. I took a deep breath and darted into position, standing beside the bed, trying to look casual—even though my heart was in
