AXEL’S POV:

The message burned into my retinas.

And that text.

I spun on my heel, storming out of the estate like the devil himself was on my back.

“Thaddeus!” I barked. “Someone has her.”

His eyes widened as he caught the look on my face. He opened the SUV door without a word. He understood what I was talking about.

Inside, I didn’t waste a second.

I sent the message and the image to Serena.

"Find this. Now."

The screen blurred with how hard my hands were shaking. The silence between each second stretched like a scream I couldn’t let out.

I tapped my lap like a beast chained to asphalt. My breath was shallow, hot with rage. “Come on, come on…”

Then—ding.

"Got it. Coordinates coming in. Sending now," Serena texted.

"Good. Half the team secures the house. I want the rest en route to this location. Full tactical. Send it now. No delays," I instructed through a text to Baron.

I looked at Thaddeus. “We’re not waiting. Also, call in everyone. It's going to be a bloodbath."

He nodded once

  • THE WIFE YOU LEFT   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & EIGHT: AN END FOR A BEGINNING.

    AXEL’S POV I couldn’t let it go."Where the hell is Sea?" I asked again, my voice jagged. My hands were clenched so tightly I felt the bones in my knuckles straining. "Did they find her before we got home?" I panicked. Oh my goodness. I have failed her.Avery flinched, but her gaze stayed on me, unwavering. “Decided to keep her away from all of this,” she said quietly. “I didn’t know what I was walking into after I saw the video. You killed our men. I didn’t know if you were being used or if you were losing it, so I made the only call I could.”Was I hearing her right? Did she take away my daughter without my consent?"You made the call?” I snapped. “Without me? Without talking to me first?”She stepped forward, her body quaking like a leaf being blown by a heavy wind. “I was protecting her—”“You think you're her real mother?” I spat. “You think you’ve got the right to act like this? How dare you make that decision without me!”Her eyes widened—like I’d slapped her—and for a second,

  • THE WIFE YOU LEFT   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & SEVEN: A NARROW ESCAPE.

    AXEL’S POV:The engine hummed low beneath us, a barely-there growl swallowed by the pounding in my head and the chaos closing in behind. Thaddeus sat beside me, gripping the steering wheel like it was the only thing anchoring him to this world. I glanced at him—his shoulder was soaked in blood, his breaths ragged, but his eyes? Still razor-focused.The first bullet tore through the side-view mirror.Then hell opened up.They had arrived.Gunfire erupted like thunder, surrounding us. Flashes of muzzle fire lit up the night like possessed fireflies. My men, scattered across two blacked-out SUVs, returned fire from every direction. Still, I knew—we were outnumbered. I made sure of that, hadn’t I? Eliminated my own men. Now the balance had shifted. And we were the ones running.“Hold—” I started, but Thaddeus had already jerked the wheel hard, sending the car into a screeching turn that narrowly avoided ditching into a dead-end. My body slammed against the door as bullets hammered the a

  • THE WIFE YOU LEFT   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & SIX: KEEPING HER SAFE.

    AVERY’S POV:No. No, no, no.I stared at the screen, unsure if I could move. My food turned cold, untouched as I replayed the video once, hoping I had just imagined it.I shoved everything into my bag, left cash on the table, and ran to the car. My hands were shaking as I grabbed the wheel. I needed to get back to the house—back to Axel.No, I needed to get Sea out first.She was all that mattered now.The drive was fast, breathless. As soon as I reached the gates, I used my access to bypass security protocols. I nodded to the guard, gave a polite smile, and walked straight through as if I wasn’t unraveling inside.Sea was upstairs in her room, reading a novel.“Mama?” she looked up, confused.I didn’t have time to explain everything. I knelt beside her, brushing her hair behind her ear.“Baby, we’re going on a little adventure. Just you and me.”Her brows scrunched, the same way Axel’s did when he was skeptical. “Where’s Daddy?”“He’s busy right now. But we’re going somewhere safe, j

  • THE WIFE YOU LEFT   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & FIVE: LOOKING FOR MY SISTER.

    AVERY’S POV:I tensed. I sat back in my seat, the baby pressing against my ribs. My body was tired. My back ached, my stomach churned faintly with hunger I hadn’t had time to acknowledge.“I’m sorry,” Dr. Morales added suddenly, eyes softening. “You look pale. Are you alright?”I nodded, even though I wasn’t. She offered the smallest hint of a smile. We sat for a moment in silence. Her fingers traced the rim of her coffee cup. Mine hovered above my tea.“You’re not crazy, Avery,” she said gently, as if reading my thoughts. “If anyone else had asked to meet, I would’ve walked away. But I saw her too. And something about that woman… it didn’t feel right.”I swallowed. “Thank you for your time."Dr. Morales nodded. “You're welcome." I felt the knot in my gut tighten. Not just the weight of pregnancy or exhaustion—but the truth solidifying. We were dealing with a shadow. A sense of foreboding settled over me, an unshakable feeling that something was terribly wrong.As soon as Dr. Mor

  • THE WIFE YOU LEFT   CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & FOUR: A GIRL WHO WOKE UP WRONG.

    AVERY’S POV:The city’s pulse throbbed beneath the tires of my rented car as I leaned against the window, the late afternoon blaring over the dashboard. I'd ditched my car and got a rental just to lose Axel or any of his men that would come after me.Immediately I left the psychiatric ward, I pulled strings to get answers. My fingers trembled slightly as I flipped through the dossier on my lap, the pages worn from repeated scrutiny. The name "Esmeraya Valerio" was scrawled across the top in bold letters, a name that had become an obsession.Esmeraya, the enigmatic daughter of Valerio, had been declared brain-dead following a devastating accident years ago. Doctors had given up hope, her body sustained only by machines. Then, less than a year ago, she had awakened, a medical miracle that defied explanation. The media had hailed it as a testament to hope and perseverance, but I couldn't shake the feeling that something was strange.My mind was anything but at ease once I encountered h

    AXEL’S POV:Around me—Bodies.My men. My own fucking men.Bullet wounds in their chests, limbs twisted, faces I recognized—gone.I stared at them. My vision finally clear.And I realized.I had done this.Me.Thaddeus stood behind me, his voice broken. “They were trying to stop you. You were… out of your mind.”I blinked at him, confusion breaking across my face like waves. “I—I saw her, Thad. London. I saw her. She was here. She kept—she wouldn’t stop.”He crouched beside me, hands raised, gentle. “There was no one here, boss. No woman. Nothing. Just you. You’d sliced your wrist and they tried to hold you back. But you—”He didn’t finish.He didn’t have to.“I—I don’t remember anything,” I murmured. “Only… London. She was here. I swear she was. I felt her. I heard her. I—” My breath caught in my throat. I looked at my hands again.Shaking. Bloodied. Empty.Thaddeus stood. “What do we do now?”I swallowed hard.Tears burned my eyes, but I forced them back.There could be no weakness
