Lena’s POV

I haven’t slept properly since that message came in.

Every time I close my eyes, my body jerks awake like it forgot something important, like I left the stove on or the door unlocked or my whole life sitting wide open for someone to walk in and take.

My phone is on the nightstand, screen facing up, like it might light up again any second. I hate that I keep looking at it even when it’s dark. I hate that a part of me wants it to ring just so I can stop wondering.

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   69. The moment it breaks

    Victor’s POVThere are situations where chaos feels loud and uncontrolled and then there are moments where it feels precise almost deliberate, like every piece of it has been placed exactly where it is meant to be, and as I step onto the edge of the east sector and take in the damage in front of me, I know immediately that this is not random.The ground has been torn open in a way that suggests force from within rather than impact from above the remains of the service junction twisted into shapes that no longer resemble structure or function, and the air still carries the heavy scent of burned metal and heat that lingers long after something has already ended.Men are moving around the site their voices low but urgent their actions controlled even if the situation itself is not and I take a few steps forward without speaking my eyes scanning everything carefully not just the damage but the pattern of it the way it spreads outward, the way it leaves certain areas untouched while others

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   168. When everything breaks

    Lena’s POVThe sound reaches me before the meaning does a deep violent crack that tears through the air so suddenly that my entire body reacts before my mind can catch up, my arms tightening instinctively around Eli as his small body jerks in surprise against me his soft breathing breaking into a startled cry that only makes my chest tighten more.For a second I stand completely still my heart pounding in a way that feels wrong, too fast, too heavy, like something inside me already understands what I have not allowed myself to think yet and when the windows rattle and the ground beneath my feet shifts just slightly that feeling sharpens into something I cannot ignore.The island is never this loud never this violent and never this out of control.“No,” I whisper under my breath shaking my head slightly as if I can push the thought away before it fully forms but my body is already moving before I decide to stepping toward the veranda as the silence that follows the explosion settles in

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   167. The explotion

    Ethan’s POVThere is a moment right before something irreversible happens when everything becomes unnaturally clear like the world sharpens instead of blurs like your instincts stop warning you and start confirming what you already know.I feel that moment before anything else happens.The air around the service junction does not feel right not just heavy but charged like something beneath the surface has already crossed a line it cannot come back from and I remain still for half a second longer than I should letting that realization settle fully instead of reacting too early.The system hum beneath the panel shifts, deepens, stretches into something unstable and I know immediately that this is no longer a controlled disruption.This is escalation.“Step back,” I say my voice low but firm enough that the men around me react without hesitation.They move adjusting their positions but the system does not stabilize the way it has every time before and that alone tells me everything I nee

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   166. Pressure Building

    Ethan's POVWaking up beside her feels different not new not unfamiliar but different in a way that settles deeper than anything we had before like something that used to be fragile has finally found its place and stopped feeling like it could break at any moment and for a second, I do not move.I just lie there watching her, her hair is slightly messy against the pillow, her breathing slow and steady, her body relaxed in a way that tells me she feels safe and that does something to me that I do not try to overthink because I already know what it means.She is here.My hand moves almost instinctively brushing lightly along her arm and she stirs slightly her eyes opening slowly as she looks at me.“You are staring,” she murmurs softly.“I am allowed to,” I reply.That earns me the smallest hint of a smile. “Since when,” she asks.“Since we made love last night and the rest of the night,” I say with a winkShe watches me for a moment and blush as if she's thinking about our night. “Then

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   165. No more Distance

    Lena's POVThe door to Eli’s nursery clicks shut behind me the weight of the day pressing into my shoulders like a physical touch. I lean against the frame for a second listening to the soft, steady rhythm of his breathing deep and even the way it always is when he’s finally surrendered to sleep. My fingers linger on the cool wood, the quiet hum of the baby monitor in my pocket a small reassurance. He’s safe, he’s ours and for the first time in hours I can breathe. I push off the doorframe, rolling my neck to ease the tension coiled there. The house is still the kind of quiet that only comes when the world outside has gone to sleep too. My bare feet pad silently down the hall the worn hardwood familiar beneath my soles. The hem of my oversized sweater, Ethan’s, actually, stolen from his drawer months ago brushes against my thighs with every step. It still smells like him, that stupid, intoxicating mix of cedar and salt, the scent clinging to the fabric like a ghost I can’t shake. I

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   164. Holding on

    Lena’s POVThere are moments that do not feel loud or dramatic but still manage to settle into something permanent the kind of moments that do not announce themselves as important and yet later you realize they changed everything without asking for attention.This feels like one of those moments.The house is quiet in a way that finally feels right again not forced or heavy like before just soft and steady, like everything has found its place without needing to prove it and I stand in the kitchen with Eli in my arms watching the light move slowly across the floor while he plays with the edge of my shirt like it is the most interesting thing in the world.“You are very easily entertained,” I murmur brushing my fingers lightly over his hair.He makes a small sound that almost feels like a response his tiny hand tightening around the fabric and I smile without thinking because it is impossible not to when he looks at me like that like I am everything he knows and everything he needs.I u

  • He Divorced Me On Our Anniversary   76. Ethan arrives

    Lena’s POVI told myself I was just going to loo that is what I said when I walked into the baby store just looking at the pastel blankets and tiny socks but the truth is from the second I stepped inside I knew I was lying to myself.The place smelled like new fabric faintly sweet and clean mixed w

    Ryan’s POVThe air in the prison is cold in a way that doesn’t feel natural. It isn’t winter cold or night cold. It’s a manufactured chill, like the place itself wants you uncomfortable, wants you small, wants you reminded that people who end up here lose more than just their freedom.I sit on the
