ADRIAN

I drove back to my penthouse in silence, with one hand on the wheel and the other resting uselessly on my lap like it was waiting for something to hold.

Maybe it was waiting for Serena though. My mind kept replaying the moment she leaned in to kiss me. I kept thinking about the look in her eyes, and how close I was to giving in. But thankfully I was able to stand my ground and not give in to my lust. And I was so proud of myself for doing that.

When I got home, I unlocked the door

  • I Got Pregnant For The Wrong Twin   Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Seven

    ADRIANThe flight to upstate New York was the longest three hours of my life.I had flown across oceans, through storms, into countries where I didn't speak the language and didn't know the customs. None of that had prepared me for this. For the weight of knowing that on the other end of this journey was a child I had never met, a daughter I had never held, seven years of lost birthdays and missed bedtimes and a mother who had died before I could even remember her name.David Chen sat across the aisle from me, reviewing documents on his tablet, his face unreadable. He had done this before, I realized. He had sat on planes with nervous fathers, had watched them sweat and fidget and ask questions they already knew the answers to. He was good at his job. I was not good at being the person he was paid to escort."Have you thought about what you're going to say?" he asked, not looking up from his screen."No.""Might be worth preparing something. First impressions matter.""What am I suppo

  • I Got Pregnant For The Wrong Twin   Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Six

    ADRIANThe call came on a Sunday afternoon.I was in the park with Ella, pushing her on the swings, watching her face light up with each arc through the air. She was wearing a pink dress with strawberries on it, the one her grandmother had sent for her birthday, the one Maria had rolled her eyes at but put on her anyway because some battles weren't worth fighting. She looked so much like her mother sometimes that it stopped my heart. Other times she looked like me, and that stopped my heart too, but for different reasons.My phone buzzed in my pocket. I ignored it at first, because Ella was laughing and the sun was warm and I didn't want to break the spell. But it buzzed again. And again."Sorry, sweetheart," I said, pulling the phone out. "Daddy just needs to check something."She didn't care. She was already demanding to go higher, higher, higher, the way she always did when she was in the swing.I glanced at the screen. Unknown number. New York area code, but not one I recognized.

  • I Got Pregnant For The Wrong Twin   Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Five

    SERENAThe wedding was a small one.That was the compromise we had reached after months of discussion, of back and forth, of trying to figure out what we wanted and what we could afford and what would make us happy without making us crazy. Aiden wanted something grand, a celebration worthy of the journey we had been on. I wanted something quiet, something intimate, something that felt like us and not like a performance.We landed somewhere in the middle. A backyard ceremony, just family and close friends, followed by a reception at the bakery. Simple. Beautiful. Ours.Lily was my maid of honor. Arya stood beside her, along with Rachel from next door, who had become one of my closest friends over the past year. Hope was the flower girl, though she was more interested in eating the petals than scattering them. Carmen cried before the ceremony even started, and I cried with her, and we both pretended we weren't crying at all.Aiden waited for me at the altar we had built ourselves, a woo

    SERENAThe box came home with us.I carried it through airport security, held it on my lap during the flight, kept it beside me in the car on the drive back to Miami. Aiden didn't ask why I wouldn't let it go. He didn't need to. He understood that some things were too precious to trust to baggage handlers and cargo holds.Hope was waiting on the porch with Carmen when we pulled into the driveway. She ran to me the way she always did, her small arms wrapping around my legs, her face pressed into my thighs. I set the box down carefully and scooped her up, held her close, breathed her in."Mama home," she said."Mama's home, baby. Mama's home."Carmen smiled and disappeared inside, giving us space. Aiden took the box and carried it into the living room, setting it on the coffee table where it would stay for the next several days, a centerpiece of memory and grief and hope.That night, after Hope was asleep, I sat on the floor in front of the box and opened it again. Not to search. Not to

    SERENAThe call came on a Tuesday morning, three weeks after Adrian left.I was at the bakery, up to my elbows in flour, trying to finish a wedding cake order that was already behind schedule. Lily was on the phone with a supplier, arguing about delivery dates. Arya was in the back, dealing with a temperamental oven that had decided today was the day to stop working. It was chaos, the kind of chaos that had become normal, the kind that meant the business was thriving even when everything felt like it was falling apart.My phone buzzed. I ignored it at first, too focused on the piping bag in my hand, the delicate flowers I was trying to create. But it buzzed again. And again. And again.I wiped my hands on my apron and picked it up.Unknown number. New York area code."Hello?""Serena Delaney?" The voice on the other end was professional, clipped, the voice of someone who made phone calls for a living."This is she.""My name is Rebecca Thornton. I'm an attorney with Thornton & Associa

    SERENAI sat on my bed with my laptop open and my phone beside it, refreshing pages that didn’t change no matter how many times I reloaded them. I’d been at it for over an hour, clicking through the same empty results, spelling his name differently, adding and removing words, switching between tabs

    SERENAWhen Daniel asked me to meet him for a movie date on Saturday so we could watch the new Guardians of the Galaxy movie, I was skeptical because it still hadn’t fully settled in my head that someone was genuinely interested in me. I just felt like he was going to eventually tell me that it was

There was movement that wasn’t Lily’s quiet pacing, a second set of footsteps that didn’t hesitate or move cautiously. Someone was making coffee in the

    SERENAI got back to the apartment late, later than I planned, the hallway lights already dimmed to their nighttime setting, the building quiet in a way that always made me walk slower. I unlocked the door carefully, holding my keys so they wouldn’t jingle too loudly, and stepped inside without tur
