Evening settled over Number 16, leaving the house quiet and dim. Amara sat at the table while Daniel dished out food. He moved easy, just like always. He asked about her day, touched the top of Liam's head, and smiled at her across the plate. The same smile she had known for years.

She pushed the food around her plate. It tasted like nothing. She hadn't told him about the picture on her phone. She hadn't said a word about what Evelyn told her at the gate—not about the four boys, not about the f

    After a restless night, Amara decided she needed to get out of the house. The walls of Number 16 felt too close, and she still couldn’t stop thinking about the voice that had whispered her name in the dark.She strapped Liam into his stroller, grabbed her handbag, and headed to a nearby shopping mall. She needed a few groceries and some baby wipes for Liam. Pushing the stroller past bright displays and shelves, she took her time selecting what she needed, sorting through the items and placing them into her basket. She tried to focus on the simple, ordinary rhythm of the afternoon, pushing the heavy thoughts to the back of her mind.She reached the checkout counter with her basket full of supplies. The cashier scanned the items, and Amara pulled out her debit card, tapping it against the POS terminal.The machine beeped—a sharp, flat tone."Declined," the cashier said without looking up.Amara blinked. "Oh. Let’s try it again."She tapped the card a second time. Another flat beep. Tran

    Evening settled over Number 16, leaving the house quiet and dim. Amara sat at the table while Daniel dished out food. He moved easy, just like always. He asked about her day, touched the top of Liam's head, and smiled at her across the plate. The same smile she had known for years.She pushed the food around her plate. It tasted like nothing. She hadn't told him about the picture on her phone. She hadn't said a word about what Evelyn told her at the gate—not about the four boys, not about the fire, and not about people who were supposed to be gone.Daniel stopped with his fork near his mouth. He studied her face. "You're too quiet tonight, Amara. Something wrong?""I'm just tired," she said, pulling up a small smile. "Running after Liam all day."He studied her for another moment before nodding. "Go to bed early then. I'll clear up the kitchen."Later, when they got into bed, Daniel rolled toward her and reached for her, his hand settling around her waist out of habit.Amara stiffened

    Sunlight leaked through the slats of the blinds, making gray bars across the sheets. Amara woke up before her alarm and just lay there under the blanket. She didn't move. She turned her head and looked at Daniel sleeping next to her. In the early morning light, she stared at his face, trying to figure out how the guy right beside her could look like that blurry shape in the old photo. *You're losing your mind,* she told herself. Photos lie all the time. The light was bad, the paper was old, and anyone's shadow could look like him if you stared long enough. She was just freaking out because she hadn't slept.A second later, Daniel moved. His eyes snapped open, dark and clear, right on her. He didn't look like a ghost. He looked like her husband. A slow, lazy smile came across his face. He reached out, put his warm hand on her waist, and pulled her right up against his chest."Staring?" he asked, his voice still heavy with sleep."I'm not staring," she lied, feeling her face get hot."Y

    It was hot in the afternoon. The sun beat right through the glass of Number 16, hitting the living room floor in hot, blinding patches. Liam was fast asleep down the hall, and the house was dead quiet.Amara sat on the edge of the sofa. Her mug of coffee had gone cold on the table; she hadn’t even touched it.She couldn't get the old woman's face out of her head—the way the plastic can slipped from her grip, the sudden panic in her eyes, that shaky voice. And that timeline just kept turning over in her head.*Almost three years.*Amara stood up and paced the rug, crossing her arms tight. *You got it wrong,* she told herself. *People love drama in these estates. Maybe Evelyn just remembered things differently. Maybe the tragedy was so bad that seeing someone live here just brought back old ghosts.*She wanted to believe it.Yet the more she thought about it, the more one thing bugged her. Evelyn hadn't looked confused when she heard Daniel's name. She looked scared. Really, genuinely t

  • My Billionaire Husband Was Never Human    Chapter 79: The Woman Who Returned

    The morning sun cast long shadows across the living room floor. Amara sat on the couch with her coffee, still turning over everything she had heard at the salon the day before.The women had tossed around a messy pile of stories. Some said the strange woman used to live in Number 16, others swore she didn't, and nobody could agree on who she was or what she wanted. People in housing estates loved to exaggerate, and Amara tried to tell herself that was all it was. Just idle gossip blowing in the wind.Yet she couldn't shake the other thing lingering in the back of her mind.She remembered standing in the dark hallway two nights ago, listening to Daniel speak to an empty room about an unfinished mission. The words had unsettled her deeply, but she had kept them locked inside. She hadn't said a word to him about it.Later that morning, she needed to pick up a few household supplies from the small shop near the estate gate. She grabbed a small baby bag, scooped Liam into her arms, and wal

  • My Billionaire Husband Was Never Human    Chapter 78: The Things People Say

    Daylight cut across the bedroom floor. Amara woke up before Liam started crying.She lay there staring at the ceiling, trying to shake off what happened last night. She had gotten up to use the restroom and heard Daniel talking down the hall. At first, she thought he was on a phone call, but then she saw him standing by his study with nothing in his hands, speaking softly into the dark:*I will join you soon.**Just be patient.**The mission is not yet complete.*Amara rolled onto her side, pulling the sheet over her shoulder. She tried to talk herself out of it. Maybe she was half asleep and got it wrong. Maybe he had a tiny Bluetooth earpiece in or was just running lines for some work thing.She forced the thought away. She wasn't going to start suspecting her husband over a few weird words. It made no sense to ruin a normal morning over nothing.A few minutes later, Daniel walked into the bedroom looking completely normal. He smiled, walked over, and kissed her forehead."Did Liam
