POV: LAUREN

“Lauren, what’s going on?” Kate ran up to me, her voice filled with concern.

“Theodor ran away.” I said, the words broken up by sobs. “He’s nowhere to be found. I already checked every place he used to hide. My words fell apart, just like my emotional control.

“Hey, hey, calm down.” Kate pulled me into a tight hug. I felt her sweet perfume, the warmth of her body against mine, and for a moment, I could breathe a little easier. “You’re going to make yourself sick like this. We’ll find him, Lauren. Kids scare us like that sometimes.”

“He left because he couldn’t stand seeing us fight anymore…” I sobbed, my chest shattered. “He thinks it’s his fault. And I… I’m failing him. What am I doing wrong?”

“You’re doing the best you can.” She h

    POV: LAURENAt that exact moment, a soft sound cut through the rain. A muffled sob, almost imperceptible but clearly close. We froze, silent, as if even breathing might drown out that fragile hope. Our eyes met for a second before we started scanning the area.“There,” I pointed, my voice trembling. “Look at that tree. There’s an opening.”The rain made it hard to see, the heavy drops blurring everything, but I caught a subtle movement. A little foot pulling back inside the hollow trunk.“Thank the Goddess… He’s here, Henry,” I said.Henry ran ahead, crouching and entering without hesitation. I followed right behind him. Inside the tree, Theodor was curled up, completely soaked, his body shaking and eyes wide with fear. When he saw us, he let out a muffled cry and threw himself into our arms.“I’m sorry, Fairy… I&

    POV: LAURENI watched him grab two towels and one of his oversized shirts—the kind that always wrapped around my whole body.“Go dry off and warm up, please. I don’t want you getting sick, especially now… it wouldn’t be good for you or the baby,” Henry said, his voice softer and more careful than usual.I felt my stomach tighten when I heard him mention the baby. Furthermore, I was speechless for a few seconds.“You don’t have to, Carter,” I murmured with a weak smile. “I… I’ll go back home.”Even as I said that, my body was lightly trembling, my feet still damp, clothes clinging to my skin. I was tired, emotionally drained—but what hurt the most was the way he made me feel, just by the way he looked at me. As if he was saying everything he couldn’t put into words.“It’s

    POV: LAUREN“Henry, please… you’re exhausted. Today was a hard day.” I tried to stay calm, but my voice cracked. I just wanted to stop him. Furthermore, I wanted to silence him before his words shattered me completely.“It’s been hard since we broke up!” he burst out, his voice firm and full of pain, throwing the truth at me without any filter. My body frozen. My eyes widened, and I felt the blood drain from my face. “Theodor ran away because he couldn’t handle the pain of not seeing us together anymore. And I know exactly how much that hurts. Every single day, Lauren. I hate coming home and not finding you here. I hate the silence. Furthermore, I hate not hearing Theo’s laughter echoing through the rooms while you two played. Furthermore, I hate this empty, cold bed—where you used to throw yourselves into my arms, barely leaving me space but filling me with so much more love. I hate prete

    POV: LAURENHis hands slowly slid up my bare thigh, firm and commanding. The shirt I was wearing—his shirt—lifted gradually, revealing my skin as his fingers pressed with intention, claiming territory. The loose fabric, which looked more like a dress on me, rose along with the tension spreading through my body. And he didn’t stop kissing me. Henry’s mouth was locked on mine—hot, demanding, hungry. His tongue explored mine with such urgency, like he wanted to erase every boundary between us and take everything I was.A shiver ran up my spine when I felt his fingers slide into the crease between my thighs, teasing with soft, circular strokes over my most sensitive spot. My body arched, trembling beneath him, and my lip caught between my teeth to hold back a moan. My lungs gasped for air between one sigh and the next.“Henry…” I whispered, my voice weak, shaking, fighting against the storm

    POV: LAUREN“What I should have done on the night of our date… when everything went wrong,” Henry replied, his voice heavy with intensity.I frowned, confused, watching as he opened a small box. Inside, there was a ring with a brilliant blue stone that reflected the light in the room. It was mesmerizing. Beside it, a folded note with my handwriting.“What is this?” I exclaimed, a lump forming in my throat. My hands visibly trembled as I brought them to my lips, in shock.“Our marriage was forged through a contract,” he began, his voice now lower but steady. “But I want it to be real, Lauren. I had this ring made especially for you. These stones are rare and unique, just like you.”My tears started falling uncontrollably, burning my eyes. There was so much about him that confused me: the provocative touch, the almost cruel desire, the domin

    POV: LAURENI took a step back, but he moved forward too, until he pinned me against the cold wall of the room. The contrast between his warm touch and the hard plaster behind me sent a shiver through my entire body.His eyes were dark, intense, almost wild. Lust, desire, passion, anger, pain—all mixed in a stare that pierced right through me.“Do you love me?” the question came out dry, direct.“Henry, that doesn’t matter right now. This is crazy.” I tried to argue, but my voice came out weak, hesitant.“Do you love me?” he repeated, even more firmly. The tone was commanding, impossible to ignore. I felt a tremor run through my body. The wall behind me seemed to vanish under the weight of his presence.I closed my eyes for a second. The knot in my throat tightened even more. I couldn’t lie anymore. Not to myself. Not t

Our eyes met for a brief second before his lips crashed into mine with raw hunger. The kiss was wet, deep, desperate. We moaned at the same time, and in that moment, he thrust into me all at once, filling me completely. I let out a long, drawn-out moan, pushing my hips back, wanting more, wanting everything.“I love you, Henry Carter,” I confessed without fear, between heavy breaths, feeling my body open entirely for him.He turned me to face him with ease, lifted me off the floor like I weighed nothing, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. Our bodies were pressed together—skin to skin, sweat to sweat. When h

    POV: LAUREN“Forget about it, Lauren,” Henry murmured in a low, husky voice, caressing my bare arms with firm fingers, sending immediate shivers all over my body. “Mia didn’t get what she wanted that night. And she’s going to pay for every damn second of it. I’ve already filed a lawsuit against her and James. The media may have bought that manipulative liar’s story, but I have enough evidence to destroy them both.”I closed my eyes for a second, feeling the weight of reality mix with everything I feared. I opened my mouth, hesitant, trying to find steadiness in my voice.“And you think she won’t fight back?” I asked, sitting up in bed, sliding my fingers across his bare chest. The touch felt natural yet full of tension. My fingers trembled slightly, and still, he shuddered under the contact, as if every gesture of mine still affected him deeply.“That doesn’t matter to me,” he replied firmly, and in one swift move

    POV: LAURENMy knees were giving out. Every two steps, a new contraction took over my body, forcing me to stop and grab onto anything I could for support. The pain was sharp, tearing me from the inside. I cried out, feeling my muscles clench involuntarily.Blood kept dripping, staining the floor in thick drops.“Easy, baby…” I whispered with a shaky voice, one hand gently pressing against my belly. “It’s okay, it’s going to be okay… Just a little longer.”My face was soaked in sweat and tears. Air came in gasps, my lips trembling. I tried to take a deep breath, but the pain came back, forcing each whimper out of me.“Oh God, this hurts so much.” I grated my teeth through the pain.But I wasn’t going to stop.I couldn’t stop.Because now, more than ever, my da

    POV: LAUREN“Are you behind all of this?” I asked, unable to hide the tremor in my voice. The words came out almost as a whisper, shaky, scraping through my raw throat.That revelation made me shudder. My eyes were locked on him, searching for some logical explanation for the madness. But there was nothing logical there. Nothing.“Why, Ravi?” I pressed, my voice breaking, feeling my throat tighten even more.He let out an impatient sigh, as if my anguish was annoying to him. With slow movements, he removed the rest of the surgical mask, revealing his face—calm, cold, and completely devoid of guilt. His half-lidded eyes conveyed a cruel boredom, like he was tired of watching me suffer.“You followed my pregnancy from the very beginning.” I said, swallowing hard, the tears burning my eyes. “I trusted you. I thought I could trust you.”

His face was red, his eyes bulging with fury, and his breathing was short and ragged. “You want us to turn against our own son because of a video? That was staged, Henry!”He pointed a trembling finger at me as if accusing me with his eyes could somehow erase the truth.“YOU set this up!” Roger bellowed, clutching his chest like he’d been struck. He stumbled a step back. “You're trying to destroy us!”Margareth rushed to him, alarmed.“Roger, please, calm down!” she begged through tears, gripping her husband's

His face tightened, his brow deeply furrowed.“What do they want?” he asked, placing a hand on my shoulder. The gesture was firm, but the tension in his touch betrayed the fear beneath it.“They called me not long ago,” I said, keeping my tone controlled despite the chaos inside me. “They’re demanding fifty thousand dollars. In cash. Unmarked bills.”I swallowed hard. My throat burned.“Or they’ll kill her and the baby,” I added.“This is monstrous…” Roger murmured, visibly shaken, running his hand through his hair with force, trying to think. “But who would do something so cruel? Who would dare touch Lauren?”He paused, staring at me.“I know money isn’t the issue for you, son…” Roger continued with a tense sigh. “But why did you come to us?”Before I could answer, Margareth turned to him with teary eyes and a choked voice, cutting him off:“Roger!

My hands gripped the steering wheel, so tightly the knuckles turned white. Rage consumed me from the inside—hot, corrosive—filling every inch with my body. My jaw ached from how hard I was clenching it. I wanted to get out. I wanted to walk into that house and rip the truth out with my own hands.But the phone vibrated on the console.Unknown number.I frowned. My stomach twisted. I knew it could only be them. The damn kidnappers.I answered.“Speak,” I said. The word came out dry, thick with tension. My throat felt like it was made of broken glass.“Mr. Carter,” said a distorted voice, digitally altered. Robotic. Cold. “We have your wife.”The air i

The scream died in my throat.His hand moved upward, slowly, toward my most intimate part.“Is it as warm as it looks, Lauren?” he whispered, sliding his fingers along the path I was desperately trying to keep protected.I cried, sobbing.

I’ll do whatever you want… anything…”“Anything I want, Lauren?” His voice echoed, laced with malice, low, with a perverse pleasure dripping from every syllable.I nodded with difficulty, swallowing hard. The taste of fear coated my mouth. A cold shiver ran down my spine, locking up my muscles in pure terror.“Y-yes…” I murmured, my voice trembling. “Just… just don’t touch my baby…”James slowly turned his face to the masked man standing in the back.

I held my posture—rigid, unshaken.“I already have a wife.” My voice came out clear, without a single tremor. “I’m completely in love with Lauren.” My throat tightened just from saying her name out loud. “We’re having a daughter. And we’ll raise Theodor together.”I took a deep breath and puffed out my chest with pride. Every word came with the strength of an unbreakable truth. I looked down at Mia as if she were nothing more than a pathetic threat to what I had built with Lauren.“I have a family. Whole. Beautiful,” I added. “And I’ll do everything—absolutely everything—to protect them. To love them. To keep them far aw
