The bakery felt different when I walked through the door the next morning.

Not the space itself. That was the same. The smell of sugar and butter, the hum of the ovens, the clatter of pans in the kitchen. But the feeling underneath, the thing that had made this place a refuge, a second home, a piece of myself I'd built from nothing. That was gone. In its place was the same wariness I carried everywhere now, the same constant vigilance, the same quiet fear.

  • I Got Pregnant For The Wrong Twin   Chapter One Hundred and Sixty Two

    SERENAThe bakery felt different when I walked through the door the next morning.Not the space itself. That was the same. The smell of sugar and butter, the hum of the ovens, the clatter of pans in the kitchen. But the feeling underneath, the thing that had made this place a refuge, a second home, a piece of myself I'd built from nothing. That was gone. In its place was the same wariness I carried everywhere now, the same constant vigilance, the same quiet fear.Lily was already there, pulling trays from the oven, her face flushed with heat. She looked up when I came in, and I saw her register the change in me. The way my eyes moved to the windows. The way I checked the corners of the room before I let myself breathe."You didn't have to come," she said."Yes I did.""You could have stayed home. Stayed safe.""There's no such thing as safe anymore." I tied an apron around my waist. "Not for me. Not until this is over."She didn't argue. Didn't push. Just handed me a mixing bowl and p

    SERENAThe hotel room felt wrong.That was the thing about being displaced. Even a nice hotel, even a suite on the top floor with views of the city, even the best sheets money could buy. It wasn't home. It didn't smell like home. It didn't sound like home. The walls were the wrong color, the windows faced the wrong direction, and every time I closed my eyes, I saw the front door standing open, the lock untouched, the evidence that someone had been where they shouldn't have been.Hope didn't understand why we were here. She kept reaching for her books, her blocks, the familiar toys we'd forgotten in our rush to leave. She kept toddling toward the door, expecting to find the living room, the kitchen, the backyard where she'd learned to chase butterflies. When she couldn't find them, she cried. Small, confused cries that broke something in my chest.Aiden spent most of the first day on the phone. Marcus, the police, the security company installing new cameras at the house. Eleanor, who h

    SERENAGoing back to the bakery felt like stepping onto a stage.Everyone was watching. I could feel it in the way Lily kept glancing at me from the mixer, the way Arya stopped midsentence whenever I walked into a room, the way the new hires whispered to each other when they thought I couldn't hear. They knew something was wrong. They didn't know what. But they could see it in my face, in the way I checked the windows, in the way I held my phone like a lifeline.Lily cornered me in the back office an hour into my shift."Talk," she said, closing the door behind her."About what?""About whatever has you looking like you haven't slept in a week. About the security cameras Aiden installed on your porch. About the way you flinch every time your phone buzzes." She crossed her arms. "I'm not stupid, Serena. Something is going on."I wanted to lie. Wanted to protect her from the mess that was swallowing my life. But she was my best friend. She'd followed me to Miami, helped me build this bu

    SERENAThree days passed with nothing.No notes, no texts, no shadows at the edge of the property. The house settled back into its familiar rhythm, but the quiet felt different now. It wasn't peace. It was waiting. The kind of waiting that happened before a storm, when the air got heavy and the sky turned green and every animal on the street went silent.Marcus called every evening with updates that weren't updates. Charles Whitmore's last known address was a condo in Manhattan that had been sold six months ago. His phone was disconnected. His email bounced back. He had withdrawn a significant amount of cash from his accounts before disappearing, enough to live on for months without leaving a trail."He's gone underground," Marcus said. "Which means he's planning something. Someone who just wanted to scare you wouldn't go to this much trouble."Aiden paced the living room while Marcus talked, his phone pressed to his ear, his face tight. I sat on the couch with Hope in my lap, a book

    SERENAThe police came and went within an hour.Two officers, a man and a woman, both young, both trying hard to look like they'd seen worse than a typed note on a suburban front door. They took the note, asked their questions, typed their reports. They told us to be careful, to call if anything else happened, to consider installing security cameras. Then they left, and the house felt emptier than before.Marcus Webb arrived forty minutes later. He'd flown back to Miami the night before, a fact that made me wonder how much Eleanor was paying him and how much of our lives she now had access to. He examined the door, the note, the surveillance footage from our neighbor across the street, which showed nothing useful. A figure in a hoodie, face obscured, approaching the house at 3am, leaving something on the door, disappearing into the dark."Professional," Marcus said. "Or someone who's done this before."Aiden stood by the window, his arms crossed, his face hard. "Professional what? Thi

    SERENAThe text message sat on my phone like a threat I couldn't look away from.I read it again on the couch after Hope was asleep, after Aiden had made calls I couldn't hear, after the house had settled into its usual evening quiet. I saw you at the park. With the old woman. I know who she is. You should be careful. The words hadn't changed since the first time I'd read them, but they felt heavier now. More deliberate.Aiden came back from the kitchen with two glasses of wine, even though neither of us really wanted to drink. He set them on the coffee table and sat beside me, close enough that our shoulders touched."The number is a burner," he said. "Untraceable. Probably bought with cash somewhere, used once, already disconnected.""So whoever sent this planned ahead. They didn't want to be found.""Or they're careful. Either way, it's not good."I turned the phone over in my hands. "What do they want? If they wanted to hurt us, they wouldn't have sent a warning. They would have j

    SERENAMiami smelled different the second I stepped out of the airport.Not better or worse, just different, heavier somehow, warmer and louder, like the air itself was always moving and breathing and never fully resting. My skin already felt slightly damp under my clothes, and my hair clung to the

    ADRIANThe first thing I noticed when I got home was how quiet the penthouse felt. Every room felt too big and too empty all at once, and I could immediately tell that something was wrong. My body still ached from the surgery, a deep soreness that sat under my skin and reminded me every time I move

    SERENAThe roof had become my favorite place in the building without me even realizing it. I’d started coming up there at night when I couldn’t sleep, and then it slowly turned into a habit. The concrete benches were always a little too cold, and the wind was always a little stronger than I expect

    ADRIANRecovery did not feel like recovery at all. It felt like I was dragging my body through hell every single day, and more often than not I found myself concentrating on not screaming from the pain more than anything else. I kept trying to forget about the surgery, but it was hard when every t
