That morning, Aurora’s house felt quieter than usual.

Not the kind of quiet that brought comfort.

But the kind that came after a massive storm had passed, leaving wreckage behind that still hadn’t been cleared away.

Aurora stood in front of the study window.

The report files about her assistant were still spread across the desk. The police had arrived early that morning. Everything had been handed over. CCTV footage. The sample delivery route. Even the hidden communications recovered from the m

    Aurora nodded faintly.But the moment she tried to get out of bed, all the strength drained from her body.Darius immediately supported her shoulders."Easy."Aurora smiled faintly."I forgot what it feels like to walk.""You don't have to rush."A nurse approached, pushing a wheelchair."For now, it's safer if you use this."Aurora didn't argue.She slowly lowered herself into the chair.Every now and then, her gaze drifted to her stomach, now flat once again.The feeling was impossible to describe.Almost a month had disappeared from her life.Two children had already been born...Yet she had never seen them.Darius crouched in front of her."Ready?"Aurora took a deep breath."I'm more nervous than I was when I gave birth."Darius squeezed her hand."So am I."Hazel immediately stood behind the wheelchair."I'll push."The nurse smiled."Then we'll push together."Hazel nodded proudly.The little group left the room.The hospital corridor felt endlessly long.Aurora watched every s

    Darius froze.His heart pounded so violently that it almost drowned out the faint whisper he had just heard.He immediately leaned closer to Aurora."Sweetheart."Her eyelids were only partially open.Her gaze was still unfocused.Her eyes slowly drifted to the right...Then to the left.As though she were trying to recognize the room around her.Darius immediately pressed the nurse call button."Nurse!"Aurora blinked again.Her lips moved once more."Hazel...""I'm here."Aurora heard his voice.But her eyes still seemed distant.Less than a minute later, a nurse hurried into the room."What happened?""My wife opened her eyes."The nurse immediately stepped closer."Mrs. Aurora, can you hear me?"Aurora didn't answer.But this time, her eyes followed the sound of the nurse's voice.The nurse quickly took out a small penlight.She checked Aurora's pupillary response.Then she smiled."I'll get the doctor."Not long afterward, the obstetrician and the neurologist arrived together.Th

    Darius immediately pressed the nurse call button."Nurse!"Footsteps quickly echoed from outside.A nurse rushed into the room."What is it, sir?""My wife's finger moved."The nurse immediately stepped to the bedside.She carefully checked Aurora's response."Mrs. Aurora?"There was no answer.The nurse gently touched Aurora's palm again.A few seconds passed.Aurora's fingers moved once more.The movement was tiny.But this time, the nurse saw it too."I'll call the doctor."Less than two minutes later, the attending physician arrived.A neurological examination began immediately.A small flashlight was shone into Aurora's eyes.Her pupillary response was carefully checked.The doctor then held out a finger."Mrs. Aurora."There was no response.A few moments passed.Aurora's fingers moved again.Very slowly.The doctor nodded."That's a good sign."Darius immediately asked,"Does that mean she's going to wake up?"The doctor looked at him for a moment."I can't say that yet.""But

    The first day passed without any change.Aurora remained in the intensive care unit.The monitors continued their steady rhythm. Her heartbeat was stable. Her blood pressure was gradually coming under control.But she still hadn't opened her eyes.The doctors came several times a day.Their answers were always almost the same."Her condition is stable.""We're still waiting."Darius had begun to hate those two sentences.Because neither of them answered the one question he wanted to hear.When will Aurora wake up?On the other side of the hospital, their two tiny babies remained in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.They were still incredibly small.Each lay inside an incubator.Tiny tubes helped provide the support they needed.The neonatologists said both babies were progressing well.Their weight was checked every day.Their breathing was monitored every day.They were still fighting.But each small improvement gave everyone hope.Darius visited them every day.He would stand there

    Darius stared at the doctor without blinking."The surgical team?"The doctor nodded."I sincerely hope we won't have to use them."Before anyone could respond, Aurora pressed a hand to her temple again.This time, the pain was far worse.She squeezed her eyes shut."Darius..."He immediately took her hand."I'm here."Aurora tried to open her eyes.But her vision was beginning to fill with shadows."The lights..."Darius looked up at the lights in the room."What's wrong with the lights?""I... can't see clearly."The doctor stepped forward immediately."Check her blood pressure again."The nurse moved quickly.The cuff was wrapped around Aurora's arm once more.A few seconds later, the reading appeared.The doctor's eyes locked onto the screen.Her expression changed instantly."Call the operating room."The nurse rushed out without hesitation.Aurora's breathing became faster."My head..."The doctor checked her reflexes again.Then she turned to Darius."Her condition is progressi

    Darius never took his eyes off the doctor."What do you mean, Doctor?"The obstetrician let out a slow breath."Mrs. Harrington's blood pressure has now reached a level where we need to increase our monitoring."Aurora listened closely."Do I have preeclampsia?"The doctor didn't answer immediately."We're not diagnosing this as severe preeclampsia yet.""But the signs are becoming increasingly clear."The maternal-fetal medicine specialist opened Aurora's latest test results."The protein in your urine has increased.""And your blood pressure is no longer responding as well to treatment as we had hoped."Aurora tightened her grip on the blanket resting across her lap."So... what happens now?""We're going to begin administering medication through your IV to help lower your blood pressure."Darius asked quietly,"Will that be enough?""We certainly hope so.""And if it isn't?"The doctor looked from Aurora to Darius."If her condition continues to worsen, we'll have to consider the n

    Aurora stood calmly before Dante, as if everything she had just said was only the beginning of something much larger. The DNA test report was no longer in the man’s hands, but its impact still lingered clearly in the room.“I’m not planning anything,” Aurora finally replied.Dante narrowed his eyes

    Aurora remained standing with the phone pressed to her ear, letting Lily’s words circle in her mind without giving them a place to settle. Something felt off—not just the content of what was said, but the way Lily delivered it. Too calm. Too certain for someone who had just lost everything.“If thi
