The car pulled up to Zephyr's penthouse building. It was one of the most expensive addresses in Lysandria, fifty stories of luxury overlooking the city.

Zephyr's penthouse took up the entire fiftieth floor. When he walked in, it felt strange to be home after so long. Everything was exactly as he'd left it. His furniture, his books, his art collection. Like he'd just stepped out for a day instead of disappearing for eight years.

"I'll give you some time to settle in," Thomas said. "But sir, ther

  • The Barren Ex-Wife's Revenge   Love After Eight Years

    Elena's mind was racing. Part of her wanted to say yes immediately. But another part, the part that had been hurt and needed to protect herself and her sons, was cautious. "Zephyr, I care about you," Elena said carefully. "And I'm so glad you're back. But we just reconnected two days ago. We barely know each other." Zephyr's face fell. "You're saying no." "I'm saying not yet," Elena clarified. "I'm saying let's take time to build a real relationship. Let's date. Let's co-parent. Let's see if what we felt eight years ago can become something lasting in real life." Zephyr stood up and put the ring back in his pocket. "You're right. I'm rushing this because I'm afraid of losing you again." "You're not going to lose me," Elena promised. "Or the boys. We're not going anywhere. But Zephyr, I've been married before. I rushed into it. I thought obligation and gratitude were enough. They weren't." She took his hands. "I want more than that with you. I want to build something real. Someth

    "Okay," Elena agreed. "But after dinner, daddy has to go home. He'll come back tomorrow."The twins showed Zephyr their bedroom, which was filled with books, science equipment, and various projects in different stages of completion."This is amazing," Zephyr said, looking around. "When I was seven, I had toy cars and action figures. You have a functioning telescope and what appears to be a chemistry set.""The chemistry set is supervised use only," Alexander explained. "We had a small incident with vinegar and baking soda.""They made a volcano that overflowed and ruined the carpet," Aurora added from the doorway.That night at dinner, Margaret joined them. She watched Zephyr interact with the twins with an approving expression."Mr. Ravenclaw, how long do you plan to stay in Lysandria?" Margaret asked."Permanently, Your Majesty," Zephyr replied. "I'm back for good. I've already contacted my brother Damien to let him know I'm resuming my position at Ravenclaw Industries.""Damien Whi

    The next morning at exactly nine o'clock, Dr. Petrov arrived at the palace. He was the royal family physician and had delivered both Alexander and Adrian seven years ago."Your Highness," Dr. Petrov bowed to Elena. "I understand we need to conduct a paternity test?""Yes," Elena confirmed. "This is Zephyr Ravenclaw. We need to confirm he's the biological father of my sons."Dr. Petrov nodded professionally. "Of course. The test is simple. I'll take a DNA sample from Mr. Ravenclaw and compare it to the samples we already have on file for the princes.""Princes?" Zephyr repeated, looking at Elena in surprise."The twins are in line for the throne," Elena explained. "That makes them princes, even though we don't use the titles often because I want them to have normal childhoods."Zephyr looked stunned. "So I have sons who are royalty.""Technically, we don't know if they're your sons yet," Dr. Petrov said practically. "That's why we're doing the test."The test itself took less than five

  • The Barren Ex-Wife's Revenge   From Stranger to Daddy in 48 Hours

    After their conversation in the library, Elena and Zephyr spent the rest of the afternoon with the twins. Alexander and Adrian were initially shy around their father, but that lasted about fifteen minutes before they started bombarding him with questions. "What do you do for work?" Alexander asked. "I run a company called Ravenclaw Industries," Zephyr explained. "We do shipping, real estate, technology, and manufacturing." "Like mommy's company!" Adrian said excitedly. "She has Ravenwood Industries. You both have bird names in your company names." Zephyr smiled. "That's because both our families have a tradition of naming things after our heritage. Ravens are very smart birds." "We know," Alexander said seriously. "We read about them in our ornithology studies. Ravens can solve complex puzzles and even use tools." "You studied ornithology?" Zephyr asked, impressed. "At seven years old?" "We study lots of things," Adrian said matter of factly. "Professor Williams says we should

    They walked to the library and sat down on the couch. There was so much to say, so much to explain. But first, they just looked at each other, trying to process that they'd finally found each other again after eight years of searching."I never stopped looking for you," Zephyr said finally. "I need you to know that. Even when I was in hiding, even when it was dangerous, I had people searching for Elena Valdris.""And I never stopped looking for Zephyr," Elena replied. "Even when my investigators said it was impossible. Even when everyone told me to give up. I kept searching because our sons deserved to know their father."Zephyr reached out and took Elena's hand. "Thank you. Thank you for not giving up. Thank you for raising them alone. Thank you for making them into these incredible little humans.""They're pretty special," Elena agreed, squeezing his hand. "And they get a lot of that from you, even though you weren't there. They have your intelligence, your intensity, your eyes.""T

    Zephyr laughed, but tears were streaming down his face. "Yes, I'm very good at math.""That's good," Adrian said seriously. "We'll need help with our advanced calculus homework soon.""You're seven and doing advanced calculus?" Zephyr asked, looking at Elena in amazement."They're exceptionally gifted," Elena said with a mixture of pride and tears. "They read at a high school level. They speak four languages. They're presenting at a science conference next week."Zephyr looked back at his sons. "Can I hug you? Is that okay?"Alexander and Adrian looked at each other again, having one of their silent twin conversations. Then they both nodded and walked into Zephyr's arms.Zephyr wrapped his arms around both boys and broke down crying. "I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry I wasn't there. I'm so sorry I missed seven years of your lives.""It's okay, daddy," Alexander said, patting Zephyr's shoulder. "You're here now. That's what matters.""And we have lots of time to catch up," Adrian added optim

    Elena got up and took a long hot shower, trying to wash away the anxiety from last night. Today was the day. Tonight was the party. In less than twelve hours, she would be face to face with her past.While Elena was eating breakfast, her phone rang. It was Aurora."Good morning!" Aurora said cheerf

    Most of the articles were about fashion events or charity galas. Victoria smiled in every photo, wearing expensive dresses and jewelry.
