CHLOE'S POV

Zoe stared at me like the floor beneath her had collapsed after I showed her the proof.

Then she ran.

I stood there in that quiet room for a moment, breathing in her panic like perfume.

This was the same mansion where they thought they could rewrite the story without me. Where Austin planned to marry my twin sister, as if what we had—what we almost had—meant absolutely nothing.

They took everything from me — Austin, the baby, my future.

Today was just the beginning of what they’ll lose.

It was poetic, really.

Zoe in white. Me in the shadows.

But only one of us was walking away whole today.

Now let's see how perfect your dream looks, Austin.

I adjusted my hood and cap. Back in disguise but this time I wasn't hiding out of fear—I was walking out with something far more satisfying than freedom.

Vindication.

Let them try to patch up what’s already cracked wide open.

This wasn’t just revenge. This was balance.

For all those nights I cried in strange beds, hunted and hated, b

    ZOE'S POV The room was darker when I woke up again. My panic had become a headache.When I woke up briefly earlier there was a man sitting beside me, he looked worried. He said he was Austin. The doctor also came in soon after. He asked me questions, shining a light in my eyes saying something about head injury and rest. Then I was left to sleep. But sleep hadn’t brought peace. It only made me feel emptier.Now I'm lying here trying to remember. Anything.Nothing came.Not my name. Not why I was here. Not the reason my hand was bandaged or my head felt like it had been cracked open and put back together. Everything felt… wrong.The door opened and I looked up.It was the man again—Austin. Same concerned eyes. Same calm voice. He smiled a little when he caught my eye.“You are awake now” he said quietly. “Good. Would you like to eat something now? You must be hungry.”I was silent. My mouth was dry and my throat hurt. I knew I had met him before. Not just here—maybe before the hospita

  • RIGHTFULLY MINE    Stranger in Her Eyes

    AUSTIN’S POV“Who are you?” Zoe asked, looking confused. Those words hit me hard. I looked into Zoe’s confused eyes. She spoke softly but fear was in her voice. She didn’t recognize me. She looked at me oddly.I was speechless.“I… I’m Austin” I barely got the words out. “You’ve… you’ve been in an accident Zoe. But you’re safe now okay?”She just stared.No flicker of recognition. She didn’t look any softer. Her face was still blank. She was breathing hard as she looked around cautiously then back at me. Like she was looking for answers. Like she was trying to place me.Still nothing. She blinked and turned from me carefully.I pushed down my fear and stood up. My heart pounded. I couldn’t catch my breath This couldn’t be happening. Not after everything. Not now.“I’m going to get the doctor,” I told her quietly.She stayed silent. I walked out of the room and rested against wall. My fingers trembled. My thoughts spiraled. What’s going on? I kept asking myself. Why doesn’t she remem

  • RIGHTFULLY MINE    Lost in the wreckage

    AUSTIN’S POV I burst through the hospital doors.I was still wearing my tie, jacket partly on and I don’t even remember the drive from the mansion. I couldn’t get Chloe’s words out of my mind. Zoe knows everything. She had left. She had run straight to the airport to stop Owen. But now she is in the hospital. The hospital doors closed after me and the outside world dissolved into chaos. The hospital air felt thick and sterile. I went straight to the nurses' station. My mouth felt dry with fear.The nurse saw the panic in my eyes. "Zoe Packer," I said breathlessly. "She was just brought in—a car crash. Where is she?"The nurse barely looked up, tapping quickly on her screen. “She’s in surgery. They took her in about fifteen minutes ago. You're her family?”“Yes.” I didn’t hesitate.“You can wait down the hall. Someone will come update you.”I nodded, already turning. I sat in the waiting room. I was wired and unable to sit still. She’s being operated on. This isn’t supposed to be li

  • RIGHTFULLY MINE    Crash before the Aisle

    ZOE'S POV I sat still while she finished my hair. I could still smell the hairspray. I felt like a dream in the mirror. The gown felt silky smooth, lace covering my shoulders. Everything looked… perfect. But my mind was anything but perfect. My chest hurt. “You look beautiful” one of them said with a smile but her words didn’t register. I felt my heart racing. I should be happy today. I should be overjoyed. I was about to marry a man who had been there for me. And yet… I couldn’t stop thinking about Chloe’s message. “You should ask Austin what he's hiding before you marry him.” The words had been eating away at me since. I hadn’t replied. I didn’t even know if I wanted to know. I told myself it was Chloe trying to get into my head again, to cause chaos as always. But still… her voice echoed in my head. And Austin—he had been acting… different. There were moments, little ones, where something didn’t sit right. Where he looked too tense. Where his words didn’t feel as natur

  • RIGHTFULLY MINE    Second glance

    ZOE’S POV “Hello sister. Miss me?” My fingers were trembling as I held the phone to my ear. I recognised that voice too well. It was hers.My knees went weak. “Chloe?” I whispered, saying her name like it was a taboo.She laughed quietly. “Still sound like myself don't I?”I stayed silent. There was too much to put into words.I gritted my teeth. “What do you want?”“You mean, what do I want this time? Isn’t that how you always think of me?” Her voice dipped with mock hurt. “Relax, I’m not here to kidnap anyone this time. Though I hear weddings can be… eventful.”My chest tightened. “You know about the wedding.”“Oh, come on, Zoe. You didn’t think I'd miss that, did you?” she said, all sugar and poison. “I just find it fascinating. You and Austin. You think marrying him is going to fix everything? Start fresh?”I swallowed. “That’s none of your business.”“Oh but it is,” Chloe said lightly. “You see, I find it curious how quick you are to forgive the wrong people. Tell me something,
