The familiar hum of Elle’s hometown wrapped around her as she stood in her mom’s kitchen, the scent of roasted chicken and fresh bread filling the air.

It was a week after Claire’s wedding, and the memory of Jack’s kiss in the barn his lips fierce, his hands possessive, his body pressed against hers still burned in her mind, setting her skin on fire every time she closed her eyes.

The kiss had been a storm, raw and desperate, pouring a year of love and regret into one moment, but it hadn’t erased the past.

Jack’s choice to stand by Elena and leave her, the supposed pregnancy, the town’s whispers still lingered, and so did the sting of Elle’s lie about Max. She’d admitted the truth, that Max was just a friend, a shield to hide her broken heart, but Jack’s hurt and flicker of anger had been clear.

Now, back in town, the awkwardness between them was a living thing, a tangle of love, fear, and uncertainty about what came next.

Her mom had insisted on a family dinner at their house, a

  • My Other Half   CHAPTER SIXTY EIGHT- EPILOGUE

    The summer sun hung low over the small town, painting the sky in shades of pink and gold, the air warm with the scent of fresh cut grass and blooming roses. Elle and Jack’s house was alive with laughter, the windows open to let in the breeze, the living room filled with the people they loved most. It was a Sunday afternoon, a lazy, perfect day, and they’d invited their friends and family over to meet their son, Cameron, now seven months old and the center of their world.Elle stood in the kitchen, stirring a pitcher of lemonade, her heart so full it felt like it might burst. She glanced into the living room, where Jack sat on the couch, holding Cameron in his arms. Their son was the cutest thing she’d ever seen, with Jack’s dark hair and her green eyes, his chubby cheeks dimpling when he smiled. He was giggling now, grabbing at Jack’s nose, and Jack laughed, his voice warm and deep, his eyes shining with a love so big it took Elle’s breath away.Cameron was their miracle, born after

    JANE’S POVJane sat in the café, her hand wrapped around her mug, the ring on her finger catching the light. She couldn’t stop looking at it, the simple silver band that meant everything. Nate was across from her, his grin boyish and warm, and she felt her heart skip, just like it had that first night. They’d come so far, from the pain of that morning when he’d pushed her away to this moment, this promise. She’d been scared to trust him, scared to love him, but he’d shown up, day after day, proving he was more than the arrogant guy she’d first met.“I can’t believe you said yes,” Nate said, his voice teasing but soft, his hand reaching for hers.She laughed, squeezing his fingers. “I can’t believe you asked,” she said, her cheeks pink. “I thought… I thought you’d never want this.”He leaned closer, his eyes serious. “I didn’t think I did,” he said. “Not until you. You changed everything, Jane.”Her throat tightened, and she leaned across the table, kissing him softly. “I love you,”

    Five months had passed since the crisp autumn days when Elle and Jack sat in the doctor’s office, nervous but hopeful, and Nate poured his heart out to Jane by the lake. The air had turned colder, winter settling over the small town with frost on the windows and bare trees lining the streets. But inside Elle and Jack’s cozy home, the warmth was undeniable, a quiet promise that had grown stronger with each passing day.Elle stood in the bathroom, her hands trembling as she held the pregnancy test, the little white stick that could change everything. Jack was beside her, his arm around her waist, his breath shallow as they waited for the result. The clock on the wall ticked softly, each second stretching into forever. They’d been trying for months, following the doctor’s advice vitamins, healthy meals, less stress and every month, they had waited.But this time felt different. Elle’s period was late, her body felt heavier, and there was a flutter in her chest, a hope she was almost af

    At Claire and Luca’s, the house was quiet, the twins asleep in their cribs. Claire opened the door, her blonde hair messy, her smile warm but curious. “You look like hell,” she said, stepping aside to let Nate in.“Thanks,” he muttered, following her to the living room. He sank onto the couch, his hands clasped, his eyes on the floor. “I fucked up, Claire.”She sat across from him, her brow furrowed. “What’s going on? This about Jane?”He nodded, his throat tight. “Yeah. I… I can’t stop thinking about her. That night, I didn’t know she was a virgin. I didn’t use anything, and then I just… told her to leave. Like an idiot. Now she’s working with me, and she’s so cold, like I’m nothing to her. And it’s killing me.”Claire’s eyes softened, but her voice was firm. “You hurt her, Nate. Bad. Jane’s not like the girls you usually mess with. She’s sweet, shy, and she trusted you. You broke that.”“I know,” he said, his voice rough. “I know I screwed up. But I… I think I’m falling for her.

    The next morning, Jack found Nate in his office, a glass walled space filled with sleek furniture and stacks of contracts. Nate looked up from his desk, his grin easy but guarded. “Hey, man,” he said, leaning back in his chair. “What’s up?”Jack closed the door, his face serious. “We need to talk about Jane.”Nate’s grin faded, his jaw tightening. “Sam told you, huh?”“Yeah,” Jack said, crossing his arms. “What the hell, Nate? She was a virgin, and you just kicked her out? That’s not you.”Nate stood, running a hand through his hair, his eyes dark. “It wasn’t like that,” he said, his voice rough. “I didn’t know, okay? Not until… after. And I freaked out. I didn’t use anything, Jack. What if she’s pregnant? I’m not… I’m not built for that.”Jack’s eyes narrowed, but his voice softened. “You hurt her, man. Bad. She liked you, and you made her feel like nothing.”Nate sank back into his chair, his face tight. “I know,” he said, his voice low. “I fucked up. I keep seeing her face, the way

    The morning sun filtered through the bedroom curtains, casting a soft glow over Elle and Jack as they stirred awake. Elle blinked, her body nestled against Jack’s, her cheek pressed to his chest where his heartbeat thumped steady and warm. She stretched, her muscles loose, and felt a quiet sense of purpose. Today was her first day back at work after months away, and while her stomach fluttered with nerves, there was something steadying about it, too, like stepping back into the world, reclaiming a piece of herself.Jack shifted, his arm tightening around her, and pressed a sleepy kiss to her forehead. “Morning,” he murmured, his voice rough and warm.“Morning,” she said, tilting her head to smile at him. His eyes were soft, still heavy with sleep, but they held a spark of pride that made her heart lift. “Big day, huh?”He nodded, his fingers brushing her hair back. “Yeah. You ready to go back to the office?”She took a deep breath, her smile a little shaky but real. “I think so. It’
