Elena barely made it home before the tears turned into full-body sobs.

She locked herself in her bathroom, slid down the wall, and cried until her throat burned and her eyes were swollen shut. One hand stayed pressed to her stomach, a tiny, protective gesture over the life growing inside her. Damien’s child. The man who had just called their baby a trap.

How had everything gone so wrong?

She didn’t know how long she sat there. Eventually, exhaustion pulled her into a restless sleep on t

  • Off Limits: My Brother's Best Friend    Morning After

    Sunlight filtered through the thin curtains of Elena’s bedroom, casting a soft glow over the tangled sheets. Elena woke slowly, aware of the heavy, warm arm draped across her waist and the solid chest pressed against her back. For a moment, she thought she was dreaming, the familiar scent of Damien’s skin, the steady rhythm of his breathing, the way his body fit perfectly against hers. Then reality settled in. She was naked. He was naked. And Leo was in the next room. Her heart stuttered. She started to shift away, but Damien’s arm tightened, pulling her closer. “Don’t,” he murmured, voice rough with sleep. His lips brushed the back of her neck. “Not yet. Let me have five more minutes like this.” Elena closed her eyes, torn between the comfort of his embrace and the panic rising in her chest. Last night had been intense, desperate, passionate, and far too easy to fall into. But morning brought clarity. And consequences. “Damien… Leo could wake up any minute,” she whispere

    The kiss didn’t stop at the kitchen counter. Damien lifted Elena off the counter like she weighed nothing, her legs wrapping around his waist as he carried her straight to the bedroom. The moment the door clicked shut behind them, years of hunger took over. He set her on the bed and followed her down, kissing her like he was trying to rewrite the past with his mouth. Elena’s hands were everywhere — tugging at his sweater, sliding under the fabric to feel the hard muscle she remembered so well. “Damien” she gasped as his lips moved to her neck. “I know,” he growled against her skin. “I know we’re not fixed. I know this doesn’t make anything right. But fuck, Elena… I need you.” She pulled his mouth back to hers, silencing him with another deep kiss. Her hoodie and sleep shirt came off in one frantic motion. Damien’s sweater followed, then his jeans. When he finally settled between her thighs, skin to skin, they both shuddered. It wasn’t slow or gentle. It was five years of

    The next morning, Leo woke up full of energy. “Mama, can Damien come over today? Please? We can build the biggest tower ever!” Elena looked at her son’s hopeful gray eyes, eyes that were so much like his father’s, and felt her resistance crumble a little more. She picked up her phone and sent a simple text. "Leo wants you to come over. Just for a few hours. We’re building towers." Damien replied in under a minute. "I’ll be there in twenty." He arrived with two huge bags of building blocks, the expensive magnetic kind Leo had loved at the fair. Leo’s squeal of delight when he saw them could probably be heard three floors down. For the next three hours, the tiny apartment was filled with laughter and the sound of clicking blocks. Damien sat on the floor in his expensive jeans like it was the most natural thing in the world, helping Leo build an elaborate castle with turrets and bridges. Elena watched from the couch, pretending to read but really just watching the two of them

    Elena couldn’t sleep. It was well past midnight. Leo was breathing softly in the next room, but she lay wide awake, staring at the ceiling. Damien’s schedule was still on her nightstand, right beside the first letter. Two pieces of paper that somehow felt heavier than the five years of silence between them. She picked up her phone and opened the message thread. His last text still sat there, unanswered: "’ll wait as long as you need." Her thumbs hovered over the keyboard for a long time before she typed a single line. "Are you awake?" The reply came within seconds, like he’d been waiting. "Yes. Can’t sleep either." Elena bit her lip, then typed again. "Come downstairs. Just for a minute. Don’t wake Leo." She didn’t wait for an answer. She slipped on a hoodie over her thin sleep shirt, padded quietly out of the apartment, and took the elevator down to the small lobby. Damien was already there when the doors opened. He looked rumpled, dark hair messy, wearing t

    The ride home from the fair was quiet. Leo had crashed hard in the backseat, sticky from ice cream and exhausted from running around all day, his new blue sneakers still glowing faintly in the dark. Elena sat in the passenger seat, staring out the window while Damien drove. Neither of them spoke for the first ten minutes. Then Damien’s voice broke the silence, low and careful. “Thank you for today.” Elena didn’t look at him. “It was for Leo. Not for you.” “I know.” His hands tightened on the steering wheel. “Still… thank you.” When they pulled up outside her building, Damien killed the engine but didn’t move to get out. He just sat there, eyes fixed on the dashboard. “Elena.” She finally turned to face him. He looked wrecked, dark circles under his eyes, jaw tight, that same raw vulnerability from his letter written all over his face. “I’m not going to push,” he said quietly. “I meant what I said. I’ll wait as long as you need. But I need you to know something.” He reach

    Leo was in heaven. The children’s fair had massive building stations with glowing magnetic blocks, a story-time corner with giant pillows, and a whole section of interactive city-building games. He ran from one activity to the next, eyes wide, dragging Damien by the hand the entire time. “Mama, look! Damien helped me make the tallest tower yet!” Leo shouted, pointing proudly at a wobbly structure of neon blocks. Damien stood behind him, one big hand resting lightly on Leo’s shoulder, steadying the tower so it wouldn’t fall. His eyes kept flicking to Elena, soft and uncertain, like he was afraid she’d disappear if he looked away too long. Victoria stayed close to Elena, giving her quiet space while watching her grandson with open adoration. “He’s so much like Damien was,” she murmured. “Same focus. Same little frown when something doesn’t work.” Elena didn’t answer. She couldn’t. Her throat felt too tight. Every time Leo called out for “Damien,” every time Damien knelt down to h
