In His World CHAPTER 90
Adrian POVGrace's research was hidden somewhere and all of it was waiting to be found, and I sat at the kitchen table staring at the letter she'd written trying to decode the cipher she'd used to hide the location.It took me three days of working on it whenever I had free time between taking care of the kids and going to work, and Elena would bring me coffee and sit with me while I tried different combinations and patterns."Any progress?" she asked on the third night."I think I'm close," I replied her. "The cipher uses a combination of dates and coordinates that mean something to Grace.""What dates?" Elena asked."Her birthday, my birthday, the day she married my father, the day I was born," I explained. "She layered them together in a pattern."I worked for another hour while Elena sat beside me reading one of Grace's journals, and then suddenly the pattern clicked into place."I've got it," I said."Where is it?" Elena asked."Switzerland," I said. "A Swiss bank deposit box in

Elena POVVictoria had kept Grace's journals hidden for thirty years and when Adrian and I arrived at the care facility to pick them up, I could see the questions written all over his face."Why now?" Adrian asked Victoria who was sitting in her chair by the window looking thinner and more frail than the last time we'd visited. "Why give them to me after all this time?"Victoria looked at her son with sad eyes. "Because I'm dying, Adrian."The room went silent."What?" Adrian said."Cancer," Victoria said simply. "The doctors say I have six months maybe, possibly less depending on how aggressive it becomes.""No," Adrian said and he sat down heavily in the chair across from her. "There has to be treatment, something they can do.""I'm eighty-three years old," Victoria said. "I've lived a long life and I'm tired, I don't want to spend my last months fighting a battle I'll lose anyway.""Mother," Adrian started."Let me finish," Victoria interrupted gently. "I've been holding onto these
In His World CHAPTER 88
Adrian POVTwo years had passed since James was born and life had become something I never expected it could be, chaotic and messy and beautiful all at the same time.Rose and Violet were three years old now and running everywhere constantly, and they talked nonstop about everything and nothing and asked a thousand questions every single day.James was two and he followed his sisters around trying to keep up with them, and when he couldn't keep up, he'd cry until one of them came back for him.The penthouse was always filled with noise now, laughing and fighting and playing and sometimes crying, and there were toys scattered across every surface and crayon marks on walls we'd just repainted.Normal children.Loved children.Children who would never know the darkness that had surrounded their parents before they were born.I was sitting on the couch watching Elena with them and she was on the floor helping James build a tower out of blocks while Rose and Violet colored at the coffee ta
In His World CHAPTER 87
Elena POVBaby James was two weeks old and I was still getting used to having a newborn again after Rose and Violet had grown into active toddlers, and I was holding him against my chest when the doorbell rang."I'll get it," Adrian said.He went to the door and I heard him open it, and then there was a long silence that made me curious enough to walk over with the baby still in my arms.Adrian was standing in the doorway blocking someone from coming in, and his whole body was tense like he was ready for a fight."What do you want?" Adrian asked and his voice was cold.I moved closer and looked past Adrian to see who was there.James.Adrian's brother James standing in the hallway looking older than I remembered and tired, with lines on his face that hadn't been there before and his shoulders slumped like he was carrying something heavy.He looked broken."I wanted to say I'm sorry," James said and his voice was quiet. "For everything I did, for trying to hurt you, for being part of V

Adrian POVA son.After Rose and Violet, after two girls who looked so much like Elena and Grace and Sophia, we were having a son.I stared at the ultrasound screen showing our baby boy and I felt something overwhelming wash over me, a mixture of happiness and terror that made my chest feel too tight."Adrian?" Elena said. "Are you okay?""Yeah," I said but my voice came out rough. "I'm just processing.""It's a lot," Elena agreed.The doctor printed out ultrasound pictures for us and we left the office, and I kept looking at the grainy black and white images showing our son.Our son.I had two daughters who I loved more than anything in the world, but a son felt different somehow, and I couldn't quite explain why even to myself.We got in the car and Elena turned to look at me. "You're being quiet.""I'm thinking," I said."About what?" she asked."About how we're going to have a boy," I said. "And how I don't know anything about raising boys.""You were a boy once," Elena pointed ou
In His World CHAPTER 85
Elena POVI was pregnant and I still couldn't quite believe it myself even though I'd taken three different tests and they'd all come back positive, and this baby wasn't planned at all.We'd been so careful after Rose and Violet were born because the pregnancy had been so hard on my heart and we didn't want to risk anything happening.But apparently careful wasn't careful enough.And the thing was, this baby wasn't unwanted either, not at all, I just didn't know how Adrian would react to the news.He was staring at me from across the dinner table with his fork frozen halfway to his mouth, and I watched his face go through about five different emotions in the span of ten seconds."Pregnant," he repeated. "You're pregnant?""Yes," I said."Already?" he asked and he looked genuinely shocked. "Rose and Violet are only one year old.""I know," I said. "Trust me, I know.""How did this happen?" he asked."Well, when two people love each other very much—" I started."Elena," he cut me off."

Elena POVOne month had passed since Adrian was shot and he was still in the coma while I was ten weeks pregnant and throwing up every morning like clockwork, and some days I couldn't tell if the nausea was from the twins or from the constant fear that he'd never wake up.I was sitting on the bathr
