Under the dim light of the little fort they built, Jaxon sat across from Elara. The sheets overhead muffled the world and turning their room into its own private bubble….small, secret and safe. Elara’s eyes were wide and steady as she looked at him with soft urgency.

“You said you would tell me,” she whispered. “Now. Who was the man at the park, Jaxon?”

Jaxon’s hands twisted in his lap. His breath was shallow. The fort was quiet except for the faint sound of their own hearts. He swallowed.

“He’s… his name is Billy,” he said finally, voice trembling. “Billy.”

Elara nodded carefully, leaning closer. “Billy,” she repeated. “Okay. What about him?”

Jaxon looked down, blinking. His hands clenched. “He’s… a friend to my mama,” he said, voice low. “My mama she….she makes drugs for him.”

Elara frowned, confusion knitting her brows. “Makes drugs?”

He nodded, though his whole body trembled. “Yes. Mama… she’s a scientist, I think. She used to work in a lab.” He swallowed, voice small. “She was do

    Xavier’s eyes widened in shock.For a second, he couldn’t breathe.Then he spun toward the door and shouted.“Dr. Henry!”The words tore out of his throat like something had snapped inside him.Almost immediately, Dr. Henry rushed into the room, his coat flaring slightly as he moved.“What is it?” he asked, stepping closer. “What’s wrong?”Xavier didn’t even answer with words at first.He just lifted his hand and pointed at Aurora on the bed like she was something foreign. Something unreal.“You told me she’s fine,” Xavier said, his voice rising. “You told me there was no brain damage.”Dr. Henry looked at Aurora, then back at Xavier.“How come she’s asking who I am?” Xavier continued, his voice cracking with disbelief. “The last time she woke up, she was hysterical, telling me to get away from her. And now she’s asking me who I am.”“Calm down,” Dr. Henry said quickly, holding his hands out. “We’re going to check her. Calm down, Mr. Steele.”Xavier laughed sharply, humorlessly.“Do n

    Xavier gently pulled away from Lilith’s hug.His hands rested lightly on her shoulders as he leaned back just enough to look at her face. His brows furrowed, confusion flooding his eyes as he searched her expression.“Lilith…,” he said quietly. “Do you know who I am?”Lilith stared at him like the question made no sense. Her fingers tightened around his shirt.“Of course I do,” she said quickly, almost defensive. “You’re my husband. And we have a son together.”The words hit him like a slap.Xavier froze. His jaw tightened, and slowly, he turned his head toward Dr. Henry, who was still standing by the wall. He didn’t even have to speak. His look said everything.Yes, he had been told her memory was messed up… but this?This was another level entirely.Behind him, Lilith shifted on the hospital bed. Her eyes followed his face nervously.“Where’s our son?” she asked suddenly, her voice cracking. “Where’s Jaxon?”Xavier turned back to her.“Jaxon is fine,” he said carefully. “He’s being

    Xavier Steele sat beside Aurora’s hospital bed, hand gently holding hers. The room was quiet except for the soft, steady beep of the monitor and the faint noise of the AC. Outside, the corridor light filtered through the glass window cold and clinical.He didn’t look away from her pale face under the white sheet. Then after a long breath, his fingers loosened just a little as he lifted his phone and dialed.“Hello?”“Good evening, sir,” the voice on the other end answered calm and polite. “It’s been a while. What do you need?”Xavier’s jaw tightened. “I need you to investigate an accident,” he said, voice steady but low. “An accident that involved Aurora.” He paused, making each word count. “I suspect foul play. I need you to dig. All cameras, witnesses, route… everything. Treat it as priority.”There was silence on the line for a moment. Then: “Understood, sir. I’ll start immediately. I’ll call you tomorrow with updates.”“Thank you.” Xavier replied. He hung up and set the phone bes

    Ms. Collins was standing outside with her arms folded, one foot tapping and a sharp glare on her face. Her eyes were narrowed and her posture stiff, and the moment she saw them her expression flickered between anger and fear.“Oh no…” Elara whispered.“We’re in trouble.” Jaxon said in a small voice.“Yes… yes we are.” She admitted.They approached slowly. Ms. Collins took one long breath through her nose.“Where have you two been?” she demanded. “Do you know how long I have been searching for you? Do you know how worried I was?”Elara instantly stepped in front of Jaxon, protective instinct kicking in just like at the park.“We’re sorry,” she said. “We were at the park just a few blocks away.”Ms. Collins’ voice rose. “Why didn’t you tell me before leaving? What if your father had called to speak with you and you were nowhere to be found?”Elara’s brows pulled together, and she shook her head. “It was my fault, not Jaxon’s. I… I felt like you wouldn’t let us go out if I told you. And

    Jaxon was still laughing when he finally slid off the swing, wiping a stray tear from his cheek. His cheeks were flushed, not from fear anymore, but from the strange relief of letting go. Elara hopped off the swing too, her small ponytail bouncing as she looked at him.“You’re funny when you laugh.” She announced.Jaxon blinked. “Funny?”She nodded. “Yeah. Your face does this—” She scrunched her nose and pushed her cheeks upward with her hands until she looked like a chipmunk.Jaxon stared at her for two seconds before bursting into another giggle. “I don’t look like that!”“You do. Exactly like that,” she insisted, marching in a slow circle around him as if inspecting for evidence.“Yes you do,” she repeated, and poked his cheek.He gasped dramatically. “Hey!”Elara wagged her finger. “You poked me earlier when you were scared.”“I did not!” He protested.“Yes you did,” she said, hands on hips, chin lifted in mock authority.He hesitated… then muttered, “…okay, maybe a little.”She n
