Her Return, His Regret 107 Who's Jade?
***~~Soren~~***I blink awake, confused at first about where I am. The room is dim and I'm lying on a couch, not my own bed.I sit up slowly, trying to shake off the fog in my head. The last thing I clearly remember is Hunter dragging me to Knox's bar to drown out the night with drinks.One glass after another till I lost count.After that, everything gets blurry— flashes of bar lights, the taste of whiskey, and muffled sounds.Still, feeling disoriented, I look around and that's when it clicks.This is Delilah's place.The blanket beside me tells me someone took care of me while I was out.I rub my eyes and stretch, trying to shake off the stiffness in my body.How did I end up here?Then I hear tiny footsteps and before I can blink…“Soren, you're up!?.” Liam squeals, his face beaming with a bright smile.A smile breaks through my face.I— I just couldn't help it.I nod and within a blink of an eye, he's over mine.Then comes his questions that always cracks me up.“You sleep on a
Her Return, His Regret 106 That was close
***~~Delilah~~***Soren's words caught me off guard, and for a moment, I'm unsure how to react.I glance down at him and I see the hurt in his eyes.His drunken state couldn't even hide it.He looks so lost. And I can help but wonder what set him off.A lump forms in my throat, I swallow it down.“Soren—” I say his name softly, unsure of how to proceed. As his eyes bore into mine, I heave. “What happened back there?” For once, I don't put up any shield. No calculative move. No hesitation. Just pure concern.He takes his hand off me and leans back into the couch.I don't move, my eyes are on him.“I—June isn't mine,” the words come out strained.Uh- oh.That's sad.I didn't think he'd find out sooner.“I overheard Ashley on the phone with some guy, Jade. He's the father.” His breath shudders out. “I feel stupid. I—I”He trails off, looking like he's about to shatter.My heart goes out for him.He looks up slowly, barely even keeping up.There's a brief pause.Then he narrows his eye
Her Return, His Regret 105 Make it go away
***~~Soren~~***Knox takes the glass off me. “That's enough drink in one night.”I groan, running a hand through my hair.“This will pass, trust me.” He adds, taking the glass very far away.I didn't think this would break me.Realizing that a kid I've loved for five years isn't mine.I'm trying to hold it down, watching Ashley pretending all day makes me sick.“We won't lose her, Soren.” She had said. “We won't lose our little girl.”I nod, hands in my pocket, staring at June from the transparent door.June will come out of this. She's a strong little girl.I try to tell myself this.And thankfully it worked.The doctor came out announcing that she's out of the woods.And even though she's still unconscious, and might be out for days, there's hope.I was dying inside, trying to put up this facade, trying to act like I wasn't hurting.But the second Hunter dragged me down to Knox's bar.I took it out on alcohol.And now that I think about it, there were really no resemblance between
Her Return, His Regret 104 Make them bleed
***~~Delilah~~***My thumb hovers over the screen. Part of me wants to call Soren, to check in.But the other part is hesitating.It's been hours since he rushed out and I've been restless.More than I want to admit.June was admitted and she's vomiting blood.That's very disturbing.I stare down at Soren's digits.But I can't tell why I'm this hesitant.I push aside my thoughts. It's his kid's life on the line, whatever it is can wait.Swallowing a hard lump, I dial his number.It rings once, twice, three times before he picks up.“Lilah…” his voice is firm but there's an edge there.“How's June?” I ask tersely.He sucks in a breath. “I can't say, she's– just here, on this damn bed and there's nothing I can do.”I can't but feel the pain in his voice.No parent deserves to go through this.“I'm so sorry about this,” the words comes without hesitation. “She'll come out of this.”A pause.“Soren…are you there?”“Yes— it's just, uhm..thanks.” he says, voice low.I end the call and hea
Her Return, His Regret 103 Waiting is torture
***~~Soren~~***I almost ran into the emergency ward. But stops in front of the nurse behind the desk.I rush through my name and explanation about June being admitted a while ago.“The doctor is still attending her. If you'd like to wait for a —,”I spin, striding toward the double doors along the corridor.“Mr. Lancaster, you can't go in there,” the nurse says behind. “Please just wait for the doctor to be out,”Waiting is torture.I just want June to know I'm here with her.God.I snap my eyes close, chest heaving.My stress levels are at an all-time high, but I know I can't make this any harder than it needs to be.I nod and step back, pacing the hallway, my nerves buzzing.But that's when I see Mrs Brown and a woman from the school, hurrying toward the hallway.I rush to her.“Mr. Lancaster–,”“What happened to my daughter?” I cut in, voice strained.She swallows, looking somewhat tired. The other woman steps in. “June was fine before lunch break, but just after that she was
Her Return, His Regret 102 Just a moment
***~~Delilah~~***Hearing this undoes something in me.I honestly didn't see this one coming.Paternity fraud?Ashley's a bitch.I don't even know what to feel.How to react.It's been an hour since the chairman left my office and I couldn't get this out of my mind.Rebecca is in on this too.She's been the mastermind behind everything while she plays the doting wife to Julian.That explains why she didn't want me pregnant.But all for what?And Soren doesn't even know this yet.He's loved that kid like his own and —A knock comes to the door, cutting through my thoughts.I snap my head to the door just in time to see Soren's head pop up, wearing a smile that makes my stomach churn.“Come in,” I let out, rolling my eyes hard.He walks in, looking so good in this black suit, his hair styled to perfection.I blink, trying to pull my eyes off him.But he drops a bag on my desk. “I got this on my way here–,”“I didn't ask for anything,”“You didn't have to Lilah.” He cuts in, his eyes p

***~~Soren~~***I wasn't sure if I was still breathing right.My eyes are locked on the entrance.Everyone is staring, the room is quiet like it's holding its breath.Delilah is walking in, arm in arm with— Hunter.Every nerve in my body pulses.My throat is dry, the room suddenly feels so hot, l

***~~Dahlia~~***“De— Delilah,” the word breaks through his mouth, eyes wide.He looks terrified.The shock in his face is so loud it almost consumes the room.His eyes are on me, as if the ground has vanished beneath his feet.But I don't flinch.Let him stare.Let him wonder.I put my hand down

***~~Ashley~~***“You know what's at stake, don't you?” Rebecca says, her lips pressed into a thin line.“I'm trying,”“It's not good enough!” She barked. “Soren's not agreeing to the engagement, that complicates things,”I swallow, my fingers coiled tight against the glass. “I'll get him to. I'm

***~~Knox~~***I used to believe I had control over my choices.Over my impulses.Over the things I wanted.Until I met her.Beautiful, black wavy hair, a shape to die for and a face that belongs to a damn billboard.It was here, right at the center of my club.She had walked in, arm in arm with t
