A Mark of Truth

The drive back from Nurse Clara’s apartment was silent. Maya sat quietly in the front seat, her hands resting in her lap. Outside the window, the city passed by in a blur—buildings, traffic lights, people walking along the sidewalks. But she didn’t see any of it. Her thoughts were stuck on the woman’s trembling voice, on the words that still echoed in her ears.

A star-shaped birthmark.

A switch during the night shift.

A man who had paid her to take the baby.

Maya pressed a hand to her chest, as if trying to hold her heart together. The pain was unlike anything she had ever felt before. Not even her divorce or the day Daniel had told her the truth could compare.

“Are you okay?” Elias asked quietly, his eyes flicking toward her as he drove.

Maya shook her head. “No… I don’t think I’ll be okay for a while.”

Elias didn’t say anything more. He just drove, his hands steady on the wheel, giving her the silence she needed. It wasn’t the kind of silence that made her feel alone. It was c

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   The Wedding Plans Begin

    Maya stirred awake with a flutter of nervous excitement in her chest. Today was the day she and Elias would meet the wedding planner the first real step toward the life they were about to build together.Her heart raced a little as she brushed her hair and slipped into a pale blush dress. Standing before the mirror, she caught her own reflection and smiled faintly. There was a quiet glow in her eyes, the kind that came from peace rather than perfection.After a light breakfast, she gathered her bag and the folder containing ideas she’d scribbled down the night before notes about flowers, fabrics, and melodies she’d dreamed of. She wanted the wedding to feel like them simple, warm, filled with meaning rather than luxury.A few minutes later, the familiar hum of an engine reached the gates of the Denovan estate. When Maya stepped outside, Elias was already getting out of his car. He wore a white shirt with rolled sleeves, his usual calm expression softening as soon as he saw her.“You l

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   Settling In

    It had been a week since Jamie moved into the Denovan estate, and everything felt different. The house was filled with footsteps, laughter, and a mix of small voices echoing through the long hallways.Jamie had brought a new energy into the home a bright, boyish charm that reminded Maya of what childhood should be: simple, messy, and full of life. He and Anika quickly became inseparable, often found together in the garden or curled up in the library, pretending to study while whispering and giggling about things only children could understand.From the doorway, Maya watched them with a soft smile as they ran around the flowerbeds that morning, their laughter ringing in the cool air. Jamie was chasing Anika with a butterfly net, both of them barefoot and carefree.Mrs. Denovan joined her, holding a cup of tea. “Those two are a handful,” she said, her tone warm. “But I can’t remember the last time this house felt so alive.”Maya nodded. “I think they needed each other. Jamie’s been thr

    The morning air was calm, carrying the soft rustle of leaves across the Denovan estate. The gate creaked open slowly as Daniel’s car pulled in, tires crunching lightly against the driveway. Maya stood by the porch, her heart beating faster than she wanted to admit.Anika peeked from behind her mother, holding a small stuffed bear. “Is that Jamie, Mommy?” she whispered, her eyes bright with curiosity.“Yes, sweetheart,” Maya said, smoothing her daughter’s hair. “Be kind to him, okay? He’s been through a lot lately.”Anika nodded solemnly, though her excitement was impossible to hide.The car door opened, and Jamie stepped out, clutching a small backpack. His eyes darted around the large compound, clearly nervous. He spotted Maya and froze for a second before running toward her.“Mommy!” he cried, his small voice cracking.Maya dropped to her knees and opened her arms. Jamie threw himself into her embrace, burying his face against her shoulder. She felt the tension in his body, the exha

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   A Brother for Anika

    The call came early in the morning, just as Maya was preparing breakfast in the Denovan kitchen. The scent of warm toast and eggs filled the air, and Anika sat at the counter, swinging her legs and humming softly while sketching on her tablet.Her phone vibrated on the counter, and when she saw Daniel’s name flashing on the screen, her heart skipped a beat. For a second, she hesitated. It had been weeks since she last spoke to him But curiosity and something deeper made her answer.“Daniel?” she said softly, keeping her voice neutral.He sighed on the other end. “Maya… I wouldn’t have called if it wasn’t important.”“What happened?” she asked, already sensing the heaviness in his tone.“It’s about Jamie,” he said. “Lena’s gone. She packed her things and left the house. We divorced And Jamie’s been…” His voice faltered. “He’s been refusing to eat. He doesn’t want to talk to me. He says he wants to stay with you.”Maya closed her eyes for a moment, her chest tightening. “Daniel, he’s yo

  • Longing For My Ex-Wife   The Turning Tide

    The press conference was supposed to last twenty minutes. It went on for almost an hour.Every major media outlet was there cameras flashing, microphones lined up on the table in front of Mr. Denovan, Colton, and Maya. Behind them hung the Denovan family crest, glowing softly under the lights. The atmosphere was tense but dignified.Mr. Denovan adjusted his tie, his expression calm yet firm. “We are deeply saddened by the recent tragedy,” he began, his voice steady. “But we will not remain silent while lies destroy innocent lives. The Denovan family had no hand in what happened to the late Miss Tyler. Her passing is a tragedy, but vengeance and false accusations will not bring her back.”The reporters scribbled furiously, the clicking of their pens echoing in the room. Maya sat quietly beside him, her hands clasped on the table. Her heart raced, but she forced herself to stay composed. Elias had told her to hold her head high and she was determined to do exactly that.Colton stepped i

    The storm didn’t fade it grew teeth.Within forty-eight hours of Harold Tyler’s outburst, his grief had transformed into strategy. His business empire stretched across industries construction, media, luxury imports and one by one, his allies began to fall in line behind him.By Monday morning, Maya’s phone was flooded but this time, not with hateful messages. It was worse.April burst into her office, her face pale. “Ma’am,” she said breathlessly, “three of our clients just called. They’re canceling their orders. They said it’s… because of the Tyler situation.”Maya froze, the words sinking like stones in her chest. “What?”“They said they can’t risk their brand image right now,” April continued nervously. “One of them even said Mr. Tyler personally called to ‘advise’ them to cut ties.”Maya closed her eyes, steadying herself. “Alright. Thank you, April. Let me handle this.”When April left, Maya sat at her desk, her hand trembling slightly as she reached for her phone. She called Eli
