ログインOn the night Elena Carter discovers she is carrying her husband’s child, she believes her dreams have finally come true. For three years, she has endured Damien Rothschild’s coldness, cherished every fleeting moment of tenderness, and held on to the hope that one day he might love her back. But instead of joy, her secret gift is met with cruelty. A single letter, accusing Elena and her late mother of orchestrating the accident that nearly killed Damien’s parents, shatters everything. Betrayed and blinded by rage, Damien casts her aside, accusing her of lies, greed, and manipulation. Worse, he threatens to destroy her brother’s future unless she signs the divorce papers. Heartbroken but resolute, Elena walks away, pregnant, abandoned, and determined to protect her child from the man she once loved more than life itself. Five years later, Elena has rebuilt her life. She is stronger, successful, and devoted to raising her twins in secret. But Damien Rothschild is a man who never forgets. He never lets go. When he learns that she carried his children, nothing will stop him from claiming back what he lost. Now Elena must face the man who broke her, the father of her children, and the billionaire whose love is as dangerous as his power. Will she let him back into her life, or will she protect her heart and her family from him forever?
もっと見るElena’s POVHe stepped under the spray first, pulling me with him. The water hit my skin like a warm embrace, soaking through my remaining clothes. Damien’s hands were everywhere, unclasping my bra, sliding my panties down my hips until I stood bare before him.I closed my eyes, letting the heat seep into my aching muscles. His fingers worked shampoo into my hair, massaging my scalp with firm, circular motions that drew a soft moan from my lips. He rinsed it out, then reached for the body wash, lathering his hands before gliding them over my shoulders, down my arms, across my breasts.His thumbs brushed my nipples, teasing them into tight peaks. I arched toward him instinctively, the tiredness fading under his touch.“You’re so beautiful,” he said, his voice rough with desire. “Every inch of you.”He turned me around, pressing my back to his chest, and soaped my stomach, his hands dipping lower. One palm cupped my breast, kneading gently, while the other slid between my thighs. His fin
Elena’s POVBy the time we got home, the night had sunk into a peaceful, velvety darkness. The kind of calm that only comes after a day bursting with colour, noise, laughter, and life. The kind of silence that feels earned, deserved, heavenly.The soft glow of the foyer light welcomed us as we stepped inside, the very home that not long ago had been stormed by fear and chaos. Now it felt whole again. Warm again. Blessed again.Jacob stirred sleepily on my shoulder, his tiny fists curling into my sari blouse as if trying to hold on to the last flicker of his dream. Mrs. Longman reached for him instantly, her face lighting up with tenderness.“Give him to me, Madam,” she said softly. “I’ll change him and settle him for the night.”“Thank you,” I whispered, placing Jacob gently into her arms.She kissed his forehead, cooed at him, then disappeared toward the nursery.Damien was already lifting Arya into his arms. She was half-asleep, her little head lolling against his chest, bangles sti
Elena’s POVOne year changes everything.One year ago, my life was a battlefield, full of gunshots, betrayal, trials, tears, and the terror that kept me awake at night.Now…I stood under a canopy of marigolds and jasmine garlands, surrounded by music, laughter, colour, and warmth. It felt surreal, like stepping into a different universe. A universe where the sun shone brighter, where families gathered without fear, where joy didn’t feel borrowed or fragile.It felt like stepping into peace.A full year of peace.We were at Elijah and Alia’s wedding, an Indian wedding, rich in tradition and beauty, the kind of ceremony you don’t just witness, but feel in your bones, deep in your soul.The venue was a palace-like garden resort in Evercrest, lit by hundreds of floating lanterns and strings of golden fairy lights woven through palm trees. The smell of sandalwood incense drifted through the air, mixing with the sweetness of rosewater and warm vanilla.Women wore lehengas sewn with gold th
