The doctors said she'd had a complete psychotic break.Her obsession with Killian combined with the stress of everything collapsing had shattered her mind.They said she'd be there for years.

But the doctors said being in familiar surroundings would help her memories return faster.And they were right.The moment we walked through the door, something shifted in her eyes."I remember this," she whispered. Looking around the foyer. "I remember coming home for the first time. Being nervous. Wondering if I belonged here.""You've always belonged here," I said. Taking her hand. "From the very first day."Over the next few days, more memories came flooding back.She'd walk into the kitchen and suddenly remember us cooking together. Laughing.

A deep, burning pain that made me gasp when I tried to move.But I was alive.The memories came back in pieces. Fragments. Like a puzzle I was slowly putting together.Adrian. The cabin. Being called Emma when my name was Elara.The medication that kept me foggy. The lies he told me every single day.And then Killian. Standing at the edge of the trees. Looking at me like I was his whole world.The memories were still painful. Still confusing. Some parts clear and sharp. Others fuzzy and distant.But I remembered enough.Enough to know that Adrian had kidnapped me. That he'd drugged me. That he'd kept me prisoner for over a month.Enough to know that Aunt Isadora and Leandro had set the trap. Had pushed me. Had left me bleeding.Enough to know I'd been living a lie.And enough to know that Killian was my husband. That I loved him. That he'd bee
