RAVEN'S POV

The words sounded as if they were dangling in the air between us. I'm pregnant. Two words that changed everything. I studied Kade's expression, attempting to see his response. His face had turned into a blank canvas though, that mask he put on whenever he was being coaxed information about something he hadn't expected to hear about in the first place.

"Say something." My voice is smaller than I wish it to be.” "Please."

He didn't move. Didn't speak. He just looked at me like I was s

  • Mistaken Bride Of The Mafia CEO   Sixty One

    RAVEN'S POVI was seated across from Marcus in his cramped apartment, watching his face. I was reminded of my father in every angle. The crinkle of his eyes when he talked. The small angle of his head while he listened. Even his hands were like them."I know this is overwhelming." Marcus said quietly. “Discovering you have an uncle.”"Overwhelming is an understatement." I cradled the coffee cup in my hands. You are my life.” “But I don’t know anything about you.”"What do you want to know?" Marcus leaned forward."Everything." I said. "'Let me begin with you and my father. What were you like as kids?"Marcus's face softened. "We were in trouble. Identical twins who confused everyone. I pretended to be Arthur for his tests. He would pretend to be me to shirk chores.”"You were close.""Inseparable." Marcus took out a photo album. "Until we grew up. Arthur wanted a quiet life. The bakery. I wanted adventure. Joined the FBI."He showed me photos. Two identical boys grinning. Teenagers pl

    KADE'S POVWithin the hour, I had my team out working on this. Security footage from Oakwood Cemetery. Traffic cameras on surrounding roads. All the tech at his disposal to locate a single shadowy figure of a man who’d given Raven a start.Raven and I sat in my office, waiting for reports to come in, and she hadn’t said much since we left the cemetery. Gazed at the wall, trying to absorb what she had witnessed."Boss." Javier entered with a tablet. "We got something."He pulled up security video from the entrance to the cemetery. The man with the long coat walked in with his head down, partially exposed. Javier zoomed in on his face.I heard Raven gasp. The resemblance was uncanny. Have the same bones as Arthur Statham. Same dark eyes. But older. Weathered."Keep going." I said.Javier scrolled through more footage. "He visits every week. Same day, same time. Spends about an hour there. Visits two graves. Arthur Statham's and Ethan Statham's.""For how long?" Raven asked quietly."Rec

    RAVEN'S POVI couldn’t get Ethan out of my mind. During all my silent moments, I returned to the brother I didn’t know. My brother who died saving our dad when I was hiding in the closet. A boy I had been expunged from my mind.The next morning, very early, the day after my mother had twisted my frame of mind apart with her revelation, I rose and took myself to my study. Took out all of my boxes of old family photos I kept stashed. Pictures I hadn’t seen in years because they cut too deeply.Kade returned to find me, two hours later, in a nest of photographs."Raven." He knelt beside me. "What are you doing?""Looking for him." I showed the bakery a photo of my dad. “Surely there are photos of Ethan somewhere. Proof he existed.""You don't need proof." Kade said gently. "Your mother was honest with you.""I need to see him." My voice cracked. “I want to know what he looked like. What we looked like together."Kade sat next to me and assisted in going through the photos. Most of them w

    KADE'S POVI stood in the doorway watching Raven square off with her mother. I’d gotten back from a meeting and saw Cameron’s text that Katherine had arrived. The harm had already been done by the time I got there."You had no right." Raven's voice shook. “No right to hide this from me for fifteen years.”Katherine sat in the rocking chair, but she looked even smaller than I remembered. “I was just trying to keep you safe.”"Protect me?" Raven laughed bitterly. “You made me feel I was on my own. You stole my brother from me twice.”“The doctors told us it would be better this way. Katherine's hands twisted. "You were so traumatized. When the memories receded, I used to think it was something for which to be grateful.”"A blessing." Raven repeated flatly.Behind Raven, I stepped into the room, near enough for support but not overt in any way. This was her pain. My only job was to keep her from falling."Tell me about him." Raven demanded. "Everything."Katherine's eyes filled with tear

    RAVEN'S POVI sat in front of the ultrasound screen, looking at it, trying to work out what I was seeing. Two distinct shapes. Two flickering heartbeats beating ever so slightly out of rhythm. I couldn’t even wrap my head around it."I'm sorry, what?" More like I whispered my response.Dr. Chen smiled warmly. "See here? And here? Two separate gestational sacs. Two babies. You're having twins, Mrs. D'Angelo."Kade was motionless beside me. His hand squeezed mine with such force I thought my bones would warp. For a moment, nobody spoke. The only sound was the quick whoosh-whoosh of two little heartbeats.Then Kade started laughing. Not a polite chuckle or nervous, anxious laugh. An actual, what sounded like real laugh from deep in his chest. Pure, unfiltered joy. His head fell forward, and with it his shoulders shook."Twins." He said between laughs. "Of course it's twins."I stared at him like he was nuts. "You're laughing? Two babies and you laugh?”"I'm terrified." He admitted, still

    KADE'S POVThe meeting dragged on. Some dispute between two of our own bonafide business outreach contract partners. I’d usually be listening, concerned about a detail or three. But today I couldn't focus. My thoughts kept returning to Raven, shopping for a dress with Cameron. Something felt off.My phone buzzed on the table. Cameron’s name appeared on the screen. I immediately dashed above, ignoring annoyed looks from the businessmen around me."Cameron, what...""It's Raven." Cameron’s voice was a chirp of panic. "She's bleeding. We’re going to the hospital right now. St. Mary's on Fourth."The world stopped. "How much bleeding?""I don't know. Enough that I'm scared. Kade, she’s just fallen down and there was blood everywhere and I don’t know what to do.”"Keep her calm. Keep her talking. I'm on my way." I was on my feet already, reaching for my jacket. "Which hospital?""St. Mary's. We're five minutes out.""I'll be there in ten." I hung up and glanced around the puzzled faces at
