Laura sprinted back to the house, nearly tripping over her robe. She burst into the studio, where King was now sitting up on the futon, looking slightly less like a content cat and more like a confused bear.

"You will not believe what just happened!" Laura shrieked, waving the letter in the air.

King blinked, clearly not fully awake. "Did you win the lottery? Because if you won the lottery, I call dibs on that really nice art set I saw…"

"Better than the lottery!" Laura exclaimed. "My dad! He's okay! He beat cancer!"

King's eyes widened. He was instantly awake now, all traces of sleep gone. "That's… that's amazing, babyyy! That's incredible!" He reached for her, pulling her into a tight hug.

Laura hugged him back, squeezing him with all her might. "I know! And that's not even the best part!"

"There's more?" King asked, pulling back slightly, his eyebrows raised.

Laura grinned, grabbing his hand and pulling him up from the futon. "Come on, I have to call Maddie! You can listen!"

    Laura stretched, feeling that lovely, loose-limbed happiness that comes after, well, really good company. Sunlight was streaming into her studio, turning the colorful paint splatters on the floor into a kind of abstract rainbow. She grinned, remembering the night before. King. He was… wow."I missed you.. this" she snuggled closer into him."And I missed fucking you miss cotton." A dangerous smirk played on his lips.She sure as hell missed fucking him."King!" she gasped, feigning hurt "I see, It wasn't me you missed hmmm.""Oh baby! shut up and come here" He hijacked her lips again, kissing her like his life depended on it. "Better." she bit on his lower lips and wiggled herself off his grip. Not minding his campaign protest.She glanced over at the small mountain of discarded clothes on the floor. Her shirt was tangled up with his ridiculously expensive-looking jeans. She giggled. Even their clothes were a mess of happy chaos."Morning, my favorite sleepyhead," King mumbled, his v

    "So, this is it," King said, stepping into Laura's apartment. He looked around, taking it all in.Laura smiled. "This is me," she replied. "Welcome to my world."The apartment wasn't big, but it felt full of life. Colorful paintings covered the walls. King could see that they were Laura's. Books filled shelves, and there were little personal touches everywhere, like a sculpture on a table and bright pillows on the couch. It smelled faintly of lavender. It felt cozy and lived-in."It's...it's really something, Laura," King said, his eyes lingering on the artwork. He recognized the strong emotions in the paintings. "Your paintings are amazing."Laura blushed a little. "Thank you," she said. "It's what I love to do. It's how I show what I feel.""I can see that," King said, turning to her. Their eyes met, and it was like the years between them disappeared. He felt that old connection, maybe even stronger now. "You always knew how to express yourself, Laura."Laura smiled, a real, warm sm

    "How... how could you not tell me?" she croaked, her voice hoarse. "How could you keep this from me for so long?""I didn't know how," King admitted, his voice raw with honesty. "I was afraid. Afraid of hurting you, afraid of losing you. I thought if I could protect you, if I could keep you safe, then maybe the past wouldn't matter. But I was wrong. It always matters. It always comes back to haunt us.""And you thought you were the only one who got to decide what I should know?" she challenged, her voice rising with a newfound anger. "You took away my right to know my own truth!""No, Laura, that's not what I wanted," he countered, his voice pleading. "I wanted to protect you, yes, but I also wanted to earn your trust again. I wanted to show you that I had changed, that I was worthy of your love. I knew this information would destroy you.""Destroy me?" she repeated, her voice laced with sarcasm. "You think this is destroying me? Try living a lie your entire life! Try believing in a f

    The stark white walls of the art gallery seemed to amplify the silence, broken only by the soft, rhythmic sound of a water feature in the corner. Laura stood near a sculpture, a bronze figure frozen in a moment of anguished grace, mirroring the turmoil within her own heart. She had agreed to meet King here, a neutral space, away from the battlegrounds of their past and the uncertainties of their present. She checked her watch for what felt like the hundredth time. He was late.He wouldn't come, a daunting voice whispered in her mind. He's changed his mind. He doesn't want you anymore.She pushed the thought away, forcing herself to focus on the art. A series of abstract paintings in vibrant hues assaulted her senses, a stark contrast to the monochrome world she felt trapped in. Each brushstroke seemed to echo the chaos of her emotions – the fear, the hope, the lingering embers of a love she had tried so hard to extinguish.Suddenly, a shadow fell across the gallery floor. Laura's brea

  • Entangled with a Baby   chapter 135

    Laura stood in her art studio, the large windows overlooking her new city. Sunlight streamed in, illuminating the colorful chaos of her work: canvases stacked against the walls, brushes overflowing from jars, and half-finished paintings scattered across the floor. It was her sanctuary, a place where she could lose herself in creativity and try to forget the turmoil in her heart.She was torn. Torn between the connection she felt with Alex and the lingering, unresolved feelings she had for King. Alex was her present, her new beginning. He was kind, supportive, and understanding. He made her laugh, and he made her feel safe. He was everything she thought she wanted.But King... King was her past. A past filled with passion, heartbreak, and a love that had once consumed her entirely. He had hurt her, yes, but he had also shown her a love like no other. And now, he was back, saying he had changed, that he was ready to fight for her.A small, elegant box lay on her worktable. It had arrive
