(Lyra’s POV)

“Where is my son?”

The scream ripped out of me before I even realized I was awake. My body jerked forward in bed, tears already sliding down my cheeks.

Pain shot through my abdomen, and I reached down—desperate, disoriented—searching for the familiar swell.

My hands landed on gauze.

And emptiness.

No. No, no—

A nurse burst into the room, her expression wide with alarm. “Miss Vance! You have to lie down—please, you just came out of surgery—”

“I want my baby!” My voice cracked, raw from hours of silence and sobbing in sleep. “Where is he? Where’s my son?!”

Two more nurses rushed in to hold me down, their touch gentle but firm. Their eyes didn’t meet mine. Not one of them could look at me.

That silence… that pity... it said everything.

My body trembled uncontrollably.

He was gone.

I stopped hearing the nurses. I stopped feeling the bed. All that remained was a ringing in my ears, and the hollow, impossible truth echoing inside me.

He’s dead.

He died before I could even hold

  • PREGNANT and REJECTED by the BILLIONAIRE    Chapter 9: Going Abroad

    (Lyra’s POV)“Is this how it ends, Rhys? You kill my son, and then hand me freedom like it’s a favor?”I didn’t say the words out loud—but they rang through me as I opened the sealed envelope the nurse placed on my bed.Inside: the divorce papers.No note. No explanation. Just cold, printed indifference.It was the final insult.My baby was gone. My body was barely stitched back together. And now, he was discarding me like I was the trash that came with the tragedy.I didn’t cry. I couldn’t. My soul had already emptied itself.That evening, I was transferred to a postpartum recovery center—a quiet, private place nestled in the hills, the kind reserved for the women of Everwyn’s elite. The staff were kind. Gentle. Professional. But none of that could reach the wound inside me. My body might recover, but my heart was a battlefield where nothing survived.I didn’t want food. I didn’t want company. I just wanted to disappear.Days blurred into weeks.Until finally, one crisp morning, a ca

  • PREGNANT and REJECTED by the BILLIONAIRE    Chapter 7: He Wants the Child

    (Lyra’s POV)“No, Rhys. Please… don’t do this.”I pushed at his chest, my voice breaking as I tried to wriggle free from his grip. But he didn’t stop—he didn’t even blink.His arms were too strong, his body too hot, and the smell of alcohol clung to his breath like smoke. Whatever had consumed him, it was wild, reckless, and dangerous.“You don’t get to say no tonight,” he murmured hoarsely.Terror lanced through my chest.“You’ll hurt the baby. Rhys, stop!”He didn’t listen. He wasn’t even himself. The Rhys I feared—the one who could still think—was gone. In his place was someone colder. Someone darker. Someone completely lost to whatever had been laced in his drink.I screamed. I begged. I fought with every ounce of strength I had left—but it wasn’t enough.Pain bloomed through me. And with it, something warm—too warm—began to spread beneath me.Then came the blood.So much blood.I could barely cry out before everything started to fade. The last thing I saw was his face, frozen in

  • PREGNANT and REJECTED by the BILLIONAIRE    Chapter 6: Losing His Mind

    (Lyra’s POV)"Can I ask for something warm? Just... something simple."The maid blinked at me, caught off guard by my sudden appearance in the kitchen. I hadn’t expected anyone to still be working this late.She nodded quickly. "Of course, Madam. Please, sit. You look tired."I gave her a polite smile and lowered myself into the nearest chair. My lower back ached, my ankles were swollen, and the baby had been kicking since I woke from my nap.It had only been a few hours since Rhys dragged me back here, and yet the air inside the villa already felt heavy again—like walking into a room where all the windows had been shut for too long. Everything about this place was suffocating.I ate quietly, every bite mechanical. Then I returned upstairs, moving slower now. My belly made everything a chore—bending, lifting, walking. Sleep, at least, was the one escape I could still rely on.Down the hall, behind a closed study door, Rhys sat at his desk, his jaw clenched so tightly it could’ve crack

  • PREGNANT and REJECTED by the BILLIONAIRE    chapter 5: Taken Back

    (Lyra’s POV)“No. No… it can’t be him.”The air caught in my throat as the car door opened. One foot on the ground, one hand braced against the edge of the van, I stared at the figure stepping out like a living nightmare.Rhys.I stumbled backward, almost losing my balance. Panic surged through me like lightning—cold, fast, and blinding.Elridge caught me just in time. “Lyra? What’s wrong?”My lips parted, but no words came. He was already moving toward us, calm and measured like a predator who’d cornered his prey. I felt my stomach twist, both from fear and the weight of the child inside me.“We need to leave,” I whispered urgently, clinging to Elridge’s arm. But my body betrayed me—too slow, too heavy. The bump made everything harder.Elridge glanced at him, frowning. “Who is that?”He looked every inch the tycoon—sharp suit, perfect posture, a face carved from stone—but the chill in his eyes made her flinch.“My husband,” I murmured, my heart sinking. “And the baby’s father.”Her l

    (Lyra’s POV)“You look like you belong on a magazine cover,” someone whispered behind me.I glanced over my shoulder. A woman on the bus was staring at me, eyes wide with admiration. Another leaned forward from her seat and added, “She’s glowing. Even with that baby bump, she looks radiant.”I offered a small smile and shifted uncomfortably in my seat, adjusting the hem of my cardigan to cover the tight stretch of my belly.“How far along are you?” a third woman asked, her voice warm and curious.“Eight months,” I replied gently, resting my hands over the life growing inside me.There were murmurs of congratulations and motherly advice as the chatter moved away from me, and I stared out the window, watching the narrow, dusty road roll beneath us. The bus rocked gently with every turn. It was strange how calm everything felt. It was the first time in months I hadn’t been constantly looking over my shoulder.But I shouldn’t have let my guard down.Meanwhile, two hours away, in the luxur
