Serena’s POV

That morning, I woke up before the city did.

I lay there for a while, staring at the ceiling, listening to the faint hum of the apartment, air conditioning, distant traffic far below, the steady silence that had slowly become familiar. My body felt rested in a way I wasn’t used to. Not the kind of rest that came from exhaustion, but the kind that felt earned.

It startled me.

For weeks. months, waking up had been the hardest part of my day. Mornings reminded me that I had surviv

  • In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 103

    Serena’s POV The moment I found out I was pregnant, everything in my body seemed to change all at once. Right after that, the symptoms hit me hard. It was like my body knew and decided to make it real. Morning sickness started that same day. I felt nauseous all the time, but worst in the mornings. I would wake up, and before I even got out of bed, my stomach would churn. I ran to the bathroom and threw up. It was not just once. It happened every morning. Sometimes two or three times. My vomit was mostly bile because I could not keep anything down. Eating became impossible. I barely ate anything. Food that I loved before now made me gag. The smell of it was the worst. Even the smell of toast or eggs, which Roman made for breakfast, sent me running. I hated the smell of coffee, which I used to drink every day. Chicken, my favorite, now smelled rotten to me. I tried crackers or ginger ale, things people say help, but even those turned my stomach. I lost weight fast. In one week, I dro

  • In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 102

    Roman’s POV I woke up this morning with a heavy feeling in my chest. Serena lay beside me, her face pale under the soft light filtering through the curtains. She had not been feeling well since yesterday. Her skin felt warm to the touch, like a low fire burning inside her. She curled up under the blankets, her breathing slow and uneven. I watched her for a moment, my hand gently brushing her hair back from her forehead. She did not even stir. She had come home two days ago looking completely drained. Her steps were slow as she walked in, slipping off her shoes by the door.“I’m okay,” she said when I asked, but her voice didn’t carry its usual spark. Now, in the soft morning light, she still looked weak. She hadn’t gotten out of bed at all the day before, her assistant, Mia, had to handle everything at the shop. I sat on the edge of the bed, now getting ready to leave for work, my hand resting gently on her shoulder as I asked how she was feeling. She gave me a small smile, tryin

  • In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 101

    Serena’s POV The alarm on my phone buzzes softly from the nightstand, pulling me from a dream where I'm arranging bolts of silk in endless rows. I reach out, my arm heavy like it's filled with sand, and silence it with a tap. The room is still dim, the early morning light just starting to peek around the edges of the heavy curtains Roman hung last summer. He said they would block out the street noise, and they do, but this morning, I wish for a bit more brightness to jolt me awake. I lie there, staring at the ceiling fan spinning lazily above. Normally, by now, I'd be up, feet hitting the cool hardwood floor, heading to the kitchen for a quick cup of coffee before diving into the day. But today, my body refuses to move. It's as if every muscle has decided to stage a quiet rebellion, pinning me down under the soft weight of the duvet. I blink a few times, willing myself to sit up, but a wave of tiredness crashes over me, deeper than any late night at the shop has ever caused. The s

  • In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 100

    Roman’s POV I sat at my desk in the office, staring at the computer screen even though the day's work was done. The clock on the wall ticked past seven in the evening, and the building felt quiet now, with most people already gone home. My mind wasn't on reports or emails, though. It kept drifting back to Serena and her shop. That surprise I planned for her opening, it had all come together just right, and seeing her light up like that still warmed me from the inside out. It started a few months ago, on one of those quiet evenings when we were curled up on the couch. Serena had her head on my shoulder, already a little sleepy, when she mentioned it, how she wanted to own a fashion shop. “Somewhere I can sell pieces that make people feel confident and beautiful,” she had said softly. She sounded tired, but I still caught the spark in her voice, the way her eyes lit up even in that moment. Right then, I knew I wanted to make it happen for her. Seeing her happy, that smile she gives w

  • In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 99

    Serena’s POV The snow fell softly outside our window on Christmas morning, blanketing everything in a quiet white glow. I woke up to the smell of pine from the tree we had decorated together the night before. Roman's arm was wrapped around my waist, his breath warm against my neck. This was our first Christmas as husband and wife, and my heart felt so full it might burst. "Merry Christmas, baby ," he murmured, pulling me closer. His voice was husky from sleep, and it sent a shiver through me. We lay there for a while, just holding each other, listening to the crackle of the fire we'd lit the evening before. The house was cozy, filled with twinkling lights and the scent of cinnamon from the cookies we'd baked. The day felt calm and beautiful, like everything was moving just right. We started by opening gifts under the tree. Roman had wrapped each of mine neatly, with little notes on them. I gave him his gifts too, and we both smiled and laughed as we opened everything. Later, we

  • In the Arms of the Enemy’s Brother    Chapter 98

    Roman’s POV I woke up gently as morning light slipped through the curtains, filling the room with a soft glow. It was Christmas day, and the air in our bedroom felt different, warmer, fuller of promise. The clock on the nightstand showed just past seven, but I didn't mind the early hour. Today was special. I sat up in bed, the sheets rustling around me, and glanced over at Serena. She lay there beside me, her chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm, her dark hair spread out like a fan on the pillow. Her face looked peaceful, lips slightly parted, and I couldn't help but smile at how beautiful she was, even in sleep. I leaned in close, careful not to wake her too suddenly. My lips brushed against her cheek, soft and warm. "Good morning, princess," I whispered, my voice low and gentle. I kissed her other cheek, lingering just a second longer. A small smile tugged at the corners of her mouth, and her eyes fluttered but stayed closed. She was pretending, I could tell. That little s

    Roman’s POV The alarm went off before the sun came up. I didn’t move at first. I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, trying to remember where I was. The room felt too quiet, too neat, too unfamiliar. Then it came back to me, slowly. I reached over and silenced the alarm. My hand brushed the

    Serena’s POV The drive back to the apartment felt like it dragged on forever, even though the city lights blurred past the car window in a rush. I'd spent way more days with Emma than I originally planned, laughing until our sides hurt, sharing secrets over late-night wine, and just soaking up t

It felt like I had only just gone to bed a few minutes ago . My body felt heavy and tired, like it didn’t want to move at all. Then I

    Serena’s POV It was past four in the afternoon, and Roman still hadn’t come out of his room. We had gone to the gym together this morning, had breakfast, and then he’d gone upstairs to get ready for work, or at least, that’s what I thought he would do. But the hours passed, and I still hadn’t see
