The morning sun filtered through the curtains, mocking the darkness I felt inside. I hadn't slept a wink after leaving Eric’s study; the image of his tear-filled eyes had haunted me through the lonely hours of the night. Needing a distraction, something to ground me, I grabbed my phone and video-called Sarah.

I needed to see my son.

"Mommy!" Finn’s cheerful voice filled the small screen, a stark contrast to the heavy silence of the Kingston estate.

They were having breakfast together. I watched

    "Autumn, wait. Let’s go down together,” Eric said, catching up to her in the hallway. Before she could answer, a voice from ahead called out his name. Sophia moved closer, draped in a black silk dress that fit like a second skin, her makeup carefully done to match the seductive edge of her outfit. “Eric, why don’t we go down together?” she asked, stepping into his space as though Autumn wasn’t even there. “Sorry, I am going with Autumn,” he said nonchalantly, shutting it down before she could push further. Before anyone could respond, a soft rustling sound came from behind them. They turned to see Fin rolling around in the long train of Autumn’s lavender dress, giggling as if he had discovered the most entertaining game in the world. “What are you doing here?” Autumn asked, gently pulling him upright and brushing him off. “Shouldn’t you be in bed?” “I wanted Mommy to read me a bedtime story,” he said, clinging to the fabric of her skirt. “Fin, we have a grown-up party to attend

    Sophia stared at her reflection in the mirror, looking every bit the lady of the mansion. She was flanked by multiple maids, all of whom were desperately trying to please her due to her perceived standing. Their hands moved quickly around her, fixing her hair, adjusting the folds of her dress, and making sure every detail of her appearance was pristine.“Mrs. Woods is so beautiful,” one maid said in a low tone, pulling Sophia out of her reverie.“Indeed, she is,” another chimed in, eager to get on her good side.Sophia maintained her usual mask of meekness and shyness, lowering her gaze slightly as though embarrassed by the attention.“Thank you, but you are being too much,” she said, attempting to curb the comments with a faux modesty. In reality, she was enjoying every second of it. The praise fed something in her that had always longed to be acknowledged, and hearing it in this house made it even sweeter.Takin

    Everyone sat frozen, their eyes fixed on Eric as they waited for his reaction.Autumn was no different.Her heart was racing as she watched him.Eric had hated Sebastian back when he thought the man was pursuing his wife. Now, seeing him with Chloe—This was a whole new level of complication.No one moved.For a moment, it felt like no one even breathed.“Chloe, sit down. Your boyfriend, too,” someone muttered, the words rushed, desperate to defuse what was clearly about to explode.Chloe hesitated for a second before sitting.Sebastian followed, calm as ever.“Chloe, how did you get with a man from the Throne family in America?” Sophia asked, her gaze sweeping over him slowly.Others followed.Admiring glances.Measured looks.The expensive cut of his clothes didn’t go unnoticed. To them,

    The sound of bustling footsteps around the house woke Autumn from her slumber. She couldn’t quite decide if she felt annoyance from being jolted awake or simply a deep, bone-weary tiredness.‘And they said I should focus on my rest,’ she thought bitterly.She stayed in bed for a second longer, staring at nothing, listening to the noise.It didn’t stop.Wrapped in a robe, she pushed herself up and stood, her body heavier than usual. She didn’t bother fixing her hair properly. There was no point.She was going to see what all the ruckus was about.Stepping out of her room, she nearly collided with a maid rushing past.The girl froze, bowed quickly, and mouthed an apology.Autumn waved her off with a tired hand, already moving.As she made her way downstairs, the noise only got louder.Voices. Movement. Instructions being thrown around.

    In the Kingston EstateEric fixed the cuffs of his sleeves, sliding into his jacket with the practiced ease of a man born to lead. The fabric settled perfectly over his frame, as though it had been tailored with reverence.He looked every bit the successful aristocratic heir—impeccably dressed, handsome, and possessing a body that left most people desperate for his attention.Except for the one woman who currently mattered.Lately, a permanent frown had been etched onto Eric’s face because of Autumn’s behavior. It lingered even now, faint but present, as he adjusted his collar and stared at his reflection a moment longer than necessary.He had been making excuses for her constant temper, turning the thought over and over in his head until only one explanation remained.Pregnancy.It had to be.It was the only plausible reason for the stress she was causing him.

    Somewhere Else Sebastian’s POV The sound of laughter filled the air as children and parents alike walked about, the adults either trying to appease their children’s curiosity or stop the wailing of the little ones with them. “Here you go,” Sebastian said, handing Chloe an ice cream cone. “Eat it quickly before it melts,” he added, taking the seat next to her. “This looks nice,” he sighed, settling back as he began to dig into his own. Chloe didn’t eat immediately. She held the cone carefully, as though it might fall apart in her hands, her eyes fixed on it with a strange mix of curiosity and caution. Slowly, she leaned in and took a small, hesitant lick. Sebastian watched her. For a second, he said nothing. Then— “You look like you’re constipated,” he said. He threw himself backward with a laugh, loud enough to draw attention from a few passersby. “I am not constipated!” she huffed, her voice rising louder than she probably intended. The way she snapped made a few people gla

    Sebastian’s POVHe sat on the leather sofa overlooking the London skyline. It was a starless night, the moon’s rays smothered by heavy, glowing clouds. Below, the city buzzed with artificial life, yet it was nothing compared to the absolute darkness residing within the sanctity of this room.“Repor

    The chandeliers gleamed high up in the ceiling, casting a beautiful, intricate spiral of glass against the ornate plaster. Why was I so invested in a ceiling and a bunch of crystals? I didn't know. Maybe it was just the sheer weight of the stress, the kind that makes your neck stiff and your mind l

    Chloe was still acting perfectly normal with me, laughing at the same jokes and leaning into our old rhythms, but I couldn't shake the feeling. It was like a splinter under my skin—tiny and impossible to ignore. I kept watching her, looking for a slip-up, a glance at her phone that lasted too long,

    The sound of designer heels clicking echoed through the dimly lit, marble-clad hallway, the sharp, rhythmic strike against the polished floor being the only thing breaking the heavy, oppressive silence of the hallway. To anyone else, the sound might have been jarring, even threatening, but to Elean
