The morning light poured gently into the kitchen as Maya sat at the table, sipping her tea. Amayrah’s laughter echoed from upstairs as she played with Dennis, and the quiet hum of peace settled over the house like a soft blanket.

But peace wasn’t enough.

Not yet.

Damian entered the room, a towel slung over his shoulder, his shirt slightly damp from the short jog he’d taken around the estate. He leaned down to kiss Maya’s cheek, then moved to pour himself a cup of coffee.

She waited until he sat across from her before speaking.

“I want to see her,” Maya said quietly.

Damian looked up, brows drawing together. “See who?”

“Amanda.”

He froze, his mug halfway to his lips. “Maya…”

“I want to talk to her. Alone.”

“No.” His answer came swift, firm, protective. “You’re not ready. You just got back, you’re still recovering—emotionally and physically. You don’t need to—”

“I do,” she cut in gently. “I need to look her in the eyes. I need to know what’s real and what was just manipulation.”

“Maya…”

    The evening air was crisp, and the hum of cicadas echoed across the estate grounds. The house had finally settled into a calm rhythm—Maya had just tucked the children into bed after reading them their favorite story, and Damian stood on the back patio, a glass of whiskey in hand, his gaze fixed on the horizon.He didn’t turn around when he heard the approaching footsteps. He didn’t have to. He already knew.“Ron said you wanted to talk,” Damian said quietly, still looking ahead.Oliver stopped a few steps behind him, Ron at his side with his arms crossed, jaw tight.“I did,” Oliver replied. “And I know you’re not going to like what I have to say.”Damian slowly turned, his face unreadable, but the shadows beneath his eyes were darker now—etched deeper with everything they’d all been through.“Then don’t say it.”“I have to,” Oliver said, his voice low. “I know you’re angry. You have every right to be. But Amanda gave us something valuable. Information that could bury Amber and Ace per

    The hospital room had grown quieter. Dennis and Amayrah were asleep again, curled together on the couch with a blanket wrapped around them. The nurse had just finished her last round for the evening, and now the only sounds were the steady beeping of the monitor and the soft hum of the air condition.Damian sat by Maya's side, his fingers lightly brushing her wrist. She was awake, resting against the pillows, her expression calm but thoughtful. For a while, neither of them said anything. There was a heaviness in the air—one they both had felt growing for days."Damian," she said softly, turning her head toward him, "can you tell me everything now?"He looked up, and though he had been expecting this, it still knocked the breath out of him."You deserve the truth," he said after a long pause. "All of it."Maya nodded. "Please. I need to know what happened to me… how I ended up so far away from all of you. I keep getting flashes, but they don't make sense."He took a deep breath, leanin

    Damian stood by the hospital window, arms crossed tightly over his chest, eyes fixed on the skyline as dawn crept over the city. The soft hum of monitors behind him and Maya’s steady breathing gave him peace—but it was short-lived.Ron’s voice crackled through his phone speaker.“Damian… we’ve got something.”Damian turned slightly. “What is it?”There was a pause.“Oliver made a deal—with Amanda. Promised to get her out. Said he’d marry her if she told us the truth.”Silence.A dangerous silence.Damian’s jaw tightened, the muscles in his face stiffening with disbelief. “He did what?”“I tried stopping him—” Ron began, but Damian ended the call without another word.His heart pounded with rage, a whirlwind of betrayal spiraling in his chest. Marry Amanda? Get her out? After everything she did to Maya? He stormed out of the hospital room, his footsteps echoing down the corridor. A nurse called after him, but he didn’t stop.Within minutes, he was in the hospital’s rooftop, facing the

    It's been two weeks now and Ace hasn't heard anything from the person he sent to look for Maya.Did Amber really succeed in killing Maya? Why wasn't the man bringing him any response? Has he been discovered by Damian? Was he in police custody?Ace sat on the bed motionless as the doctor dressed his wound. He was so deep in thoughts that he couldn't even feel any pain. Just then his phone screen lit up and he checked and realized it was a message from Julio, the man he sent to search for Maya. He quickly opened the message and a sigh of relief escaped his lips as he stared at the photo. Just then, Amber walked in. "Your plan failed Amber, Maya didn't die. She's safe and sound," Ace said with a mocking smile as he watched Amber's face pale and her eyes widen. "How? Why? You hurt her and I also stabbed her so how the fuck is she still alive?" "I had someone check every hospital here and the person just sent me this," Ace said showing Amber a picture on his phone. "What? This…this c

    Amber sat in her living room with a drink in her hand, a giant smile on her lips. She twirled the glass, admiring how the red liquid dance in it. "How can you sit down and enjoy life when I'm suffering," Ace yelled, gritting his teeth in pain as the doctor stitched his wound. "You caused it yourself, fool." Amber rolled her eyes and took a sip of her drink. "How did I cause it myself? Huh? Tell me. You think I wanted Damian to find us?" "Look, don't spoil my mood ok? Lemme enjoy this before I think of other things." "Like how to get my Maya back?" "Your Maya might be dead by now," Amber said with an evil smirk. "Wh….Wh…..why do you mean by that?" Ace asked, his eyes widening in shock and fear. "You think I would let her go after seeing her?""You didn't have to let her go. You could have brought her along with us," Ace said angrily. "I could have done that….." Amber continued swirling her glass. "But I chose to end her. You know when I saw her, all the resentment and hatred

    Maya watched as Ace drove towards the airport. Her heart was beating faster with every second. What if Damian didn't show up on time? What if Ace succeeded in taking her away? Would she truly never see Damian again? 'No Maya, you can't let this happen. You can't let Ace win for the second time. Do something." She scolded herself, feeling determined this time. She looked around anxiously for something, she didn't know what she was looking for but she knew she needed something. She could have jumped out of the car if Ace didn't turn the child protect on. Her eyes brightened when she saw his gun. He had put it on his belt strap earlier and she let out a small chuckle as she swiftly pulled it out. "Stop the car, else I'll shoot," she said pointing the gun to his head. Her hand was resting on the trigger. Maya prayed he would stop the car because she was shaking and could drop the gun out of fear. "You? Shoot?" Ace chuckled, stepping on the gas. "You couldn't even hurt a fly, what

    Damian stood on his hotel balcony, overlooking the shimmering lights of Mexico City below, feeling a sense of emptiness envelope him. The warm night air carried echoes of laughter and music from the bustling streets, but his mind was consumed by the absence of the his wife's sister. Memories of her gentle smile and the way her eyes sparkled under the moonlight haunted his thoughts, intensifying the ache in his heart. Renee reminded him so much of Maya and even Ron couldn't deny the fact. Lost in the sea of emotions, he traced the outline of her face in the stars above, seeking solace in the vast night sky. Silently praying that he would find Renee, because if something happened to her, he wouldn't be able to live. He already let his wife go and there was no way he was going to lose her sister. Damian sighed, ignoring the tears that rolled down his cheek. There was no need to hide his pain, he didn't even want to hide his pin anymore.The city's vibrant energy clashed with his silen

    The music at the bar pulsed through the air, creating a rhythm that seems to sync with the beating hearts of the crowd. The dance floor,a kaleidoscope of movements make each person lost in their own world yet connected by the energy of the music. The lights flicker and change colors, casting an enchanting glow on the diverse faces around. Laughter mingles with the music, conversations blend into the melodies, and for a moment, everyone is united in the shared experience of the night.Damian looked around the club as he brought his fifth bottle of alcohol to his lips. His eyes were filled with sorrow that seemed to drown out the vibrant atmosphere around him. The weight of everything hung heavy on his shoulders, each sip of his drink a futile attempt to numb the ache in his heart."Why did he have to go through all this? Why him? Did he commit any crime in his past life that has earned him this type of punishment? Didn't he deserve to be happy?" As Damian sat there, lost in his though
