“Here,” Emily said to the nurse as she handed her the form and the small sealed bag that contained Reuben’s hair. Her hands trembled slightly as she did.

The nurse glanced at the form, then looked up. “We will also need your own hair sample, ma’am.”

“Use my blood,” Emily said quickly, her voice low but firm. Blood felt more certain to her—no chance for mistakes. She wanted to be completely sure if she and Reuben were truly related through their mother. Her heart pounded at the thought. If Reuben really was her brother, then it explained why she had always felt a strange connection to him.

“Alright, follow me,” the nurse said and led her inside to draw her blood.

It didn’t take long.

“Wifey.”

Emily froze at the familiar voice. She turned and saw Denovon at the doorway, his brows drawn together in worry.

“What happened? Are you okay?” Denovon asked quickly, stepping closer and looking at her from head to toe as if expecting to find her injured.

“I’m fine. Why are you here?” Emily asked,

    Denovon slowly opened his eyes. His head felt heavy, and a dull pain throbbed behind his temples. He blinked a few times, his vision adjusting to the soft light of the room. He was lying on the bed.A sharp sting hit his head when he tried to move. He hissed and inhaled deeply, forcing himself to stay still for a moment. His throat felt dry, like he hadn’t drunk water in days, and his tongue grazed the roof of his mouth as he tried to swallow.When he shifted his arm, something tugged lightly at his hand. He frowned and turned to see a clear tube running from a bag of IV fluid into his vein. The cool sensation trickled through him.“What the…” he muttered under his breath, frowning as he forced himself upright. He leaned weakly against the headboard, his mind spinning. How did he end up like this?The last thing he remembered was Emily’s soft breath against his neck, the warmth of her body close to his. Then everything had gone blank.Just then, the door opened, and Emily stepped in,

    The soft rays of dawn filtered through the sheer curtains, painting the room with a pale golden hue.Emily stirred slowly, her lashes fluttering open. She sighed as she realized it was morning already — she hadn’t gotten enough sleep.These past few weeks, she always felt sleepy. Even when she woke up, she still wanted to close her eyes and drift off again. With a soft groan, she turned back toward Denovon, reaching out to feel his warmth beside her.But something felt different. The warmth was heavier, hotter. For a moment, she thought it was just the blanket. But when she turned her head toward him, her heart skipped a beat.Denovon was still asleep, his brows slightly furrowed, a faint flush across his usually calm face. His breathing was steady, but there was a heat radiating from him that wasn’t normal.Emily frowned softly and reached out, placing her palm on his forehead. It was warm ... too warm, like he had a fever.“Hubby…” she whispered, her voice laced with worry. She touc

    The clock on the bedroom wall struck eleven thirty and Denovon was not back. Emily sat on the couch, wrapped in a light shawl, her eyes on the television but her mind far away.Denovon wasn't back home and her mind was not at rest. He had told her he'd be late, but it was almost midnight now, and she couldn't help worrying a little. His phone was not connecting too.Emily was downstairs with the others and they had told her to go to sleep and not to wait for Denovon, but here she was, still awake, waiting for him. They were still at Rowland family Mansion.After thinking for a while, she turned off the television to go sleep, but just then, the door of their bedroom opened and Denovon entered with his tie and coat in his hand. His hair was slightly messy, and his steps were a bit unstable.Emily’s heart relaxed instantly. She stood from the couch, her eyes soft but slightly worried.“Hubby, you are back,” she said gently, walking to him. She was already tired and feeling sleepy.Denov

    Reuben stood frozen, confused by the crowd’s chant. His eyes darted from face to face, unsure of what was happening. The people weren’t running or screaming like he expected...they were praising him, whispering words of thanks he didn’t understand.His hand tightened on the gun as he stepped slightly forward, keeping Claire behind him protectively. The smell of blood still hung in the air, and his instinct told him not to lower his guard yet.“What are they saying?” he muttered under his breath, his brows knitting tightly together.Then, the crowd parted slowly.An older man stepped out from among them. His gray hair was tossed about by the evening wind, and his wrinkled hands trembled as he leaned on a wooden walking stick. His clothes were worn and old, and his eyes...though tired and sunken...carried a deep emotion, something between sorrow and relief.He stopped a few steps away from Reuben and lifted one hand slightly. “Lower your gun,” the man said gently, his voice hoarse with

    “I said you should finish him too!” Claire’s voice cracked as she shouted, her face twisted in rage and pain. Her hands clenched tightly as she glared at Matthew.Reuben, who had been frozen for a moment, blinked rapidly, trying to process her sudden appearance. His heart dropped into his stomach when he saw her standing there. He didn’t want her to see this bloody scene...three bodies already lay lifeless on the floor.“Kill him!” Claire shouted again, her voice sharp like a command. Her eyes burned red as she turned to Reuben.Reuben didn’t move. His brows furrowed in confusion. Shouldn’t she be running away? he thought. Why is she telling me to kill?“Why haven’t you killed him? Kill him now!” Claire demanded as she walked fully into the house. Her steps were unsteady but filled with determination.Matthew, still on the floor, held his bleeding leg tightly. His breath came in short gasps, fear shaking his entire body. He had wanted to beg Reuben for mercy...but now, hearing Claire

    Matthew’s breath came hard and fast. Blood soaked his hand where Reuben had shot him. He sat on the cold floor, holding his wound, sweat running down his face. His eyes lifted slowly to meet Reuben’s cold stare. Reuben’s gun was still pointed at him, his finger pressing against the trigger, calm but dangerous.“I said,” Reuben repeated slowly, “tell me about Laura Dane.” His voice was colder now.At the mention of that name, the old woman on the floor trembled. Her wrinkled hands tightened against her dress. She raised her head with a bitter snort.“So that’s why you’re here,” she said, sharp and proud. “You came here to kill us because of her. That foolish girl who brought shame to this family.” Her voice dripped with anger, like Laura had done something unforgivable. The death of her husband had made her speak without care.“Careful with your words, old woman.” Reuben’s eyes went dark. He pointed the gun at her. Still she did not stop. She straightened her back proudly, as if she ha
