LOGINHi Loves❤️, I do hope you are doing well. First of all, I wanted to say thank you all so much for your support. As always, it's the reason why I continue writing. You're my biggest motivators... Second, I wanted to ask for your understanding. I know I've been slow with the chapter releases but that's because we are on our last stretch and I don't want to butcher it, especially with the reveals. I'm not sure the exact number of chapters left, but we are finally approaching the end. Anyway, enjoy, have a wonderful weekend and please take care and stay safe 🥰. Sending lots of love, Eve.
My eyes move around the room one last time, lingering on the crib, the tiny details I had so carefully put together, and I realize that I’ll have to change it. When she comes back, this room won’t work anymore. I’ll prepare something that fits a loved little girl and I will wait however long it take
After a while, I push myself up from the couch, restless and unsettled. Sitting there isn’t helping. If anything, it’s only making the thoughts louder. Making it harder to ignore them. I need to move, so I push myself up from the couch and start heading toward my room, but I don’t make it far befo
Lilly keeps glancing at me from the corner of her eye, like she’s trying to figure out if I’m okay without actually asking. Eventually, she gives in. “You good?” she asks, her voice softer than usual. I let out a slow breath, staring out the window as the city passes by in a blur. “It’s a lot
I don’t need Aunt Harper to tell me who the baby is. I already know. “He looks just like me,” I say without thinking. Lilly leans in. “Fuck, you two are practically twins.” “Language, Lilly,” Aunt Harper smiles softly. “But you’re right, and if I’d just opened this years back, we would have kno
“Obviously,” I reply, trying and failing not to smile. “I’m the wise one, period.” She rolls her eyes and continues driving. I glance back at her. “Do you have any idea what Aunt Harper wants to talk about?” “Nope,” she says easily. “But I have pretty good idea.” “Mind sharing?” “Can’t do,”
Just as I’m about to leave, my phone buzzes in my hand. I glance down, expecting it to be Aunt Harper, but instead, Lilly’s name flashes across the screen, followed by a text message. [I’m outside.] I frown slightly, surprised because I wasn’t expecting her to come all the way here. I thought we
“Please! I’m perfectly fine… I’ll settle down when I find a man that can tame me in all aspects” she winks at me.I chuckle. At least she’s self-aware. With her personality, Lilly needs someone who can match her. Someone she can’t walk all over. She needs a dominant male; otherwise, she’ll continue
This time I can’t stop the laughter bubbling out of me. Of all the ridiculous things Lilly has ever said, this one takes the crown.“You’ve lost your mind, Lilly,” I tell her once I catch my breath. “Why would you try to hook up a man with a pregnant woman?”She opens her mouth, but I cut her off be
“Why did you lie to them?” Lilly whispers in my ear as I watch my aunties bustling in the kitchen, pulling out bowls and trays like they were planning a feast instead of a snack.“What was I supposed to do?” I whisper back. “Noah wants nothing to do with this baby and honestly, I don’t want him in o
Apart from the twins, they’re the other reason I didn’t end things even when I felt like I couldn’t live a second longer. They would have been devastated, and I’ve never wanted to be the reason they’re hurting.“How have you been, big brother?” Iris asks, concern hidden in the depths of her blue eye
