ALEXANDER MANSION~ NEW YORK

Alexander Blackwood stormed through the marble halls of his mansion, his anger practically vibrating through his steps.

The maids and staff froze as he passed, their whispers trailing behind him. He reached the Master bedroom, flinging the door open.

“Vivian!” he shouted, voice echoing off the walls. “What the hell did you do?”

Vivian, still in her nightwear, sat up in bed, eyes wide. “Alexander… calm down.”

“Calm down? Calm down?!” he yelled, pacing. “Do you have a

    HOSPITAL HALLWAY – SAME TIMEAmelia stood frozen outside the glass window of Valentina’s room, her hands pressed against the cold surface. Inside, her sister lay motionless in the bed, hooked up to machines that beeped steadily. Valentina’s face was pale and swollen from crying. Amelia’s own hands were shaking so badly she could barely keep them still.The door opened quietly. A nurse stepped out, her face tired and serious.“She’s sedated now,” the nurse said softly. “She’ll sleep for the next few hours. We had to give her something strong. She was hysterical.”Amelia swallowed hard. “What… what happened in there? Why was she screaming?”The nurse hesitated, then lowered her voice. “She kept saying her sister poisoned her. That her sister killed the baby. She screamed the name over and over Katherina. She was throwing things, ripping out her IV. We’ve never seen a patient so… broken and angry at the same time.”Amelia’s face drained of all color. The hallway seemed to tilt. “Kat

    VALENTINA’S HOSPITAL ROOM – MORNINGValentina lay completely still in the narrow hospital bed, staring at the white ceiling tiles. Her face was ghostly pale. Her lips were cracked and dry. Her hands rested limp on the stiff white sheets like they belonged to someone else. The room smelled of antiseptic and sadness. A single bouquet of flowers from Amelia sat on the side table, already starting to wilt.Katherina sat right beside her, holding her hand gently, rubbing slow circles with her thumb. Her face was the perfect picture of heartbreak and love.“I lost the baby,” Valentina whispered, her voice hoarse and broken. “I really lost it.”“I know, sweetheart,” Katherina said softly, squeezing her fingers. “I’m so, so sorry. I can’t even imagine how you’re feeling right now.”Valentina’s eyes filled with fresh tears. “I don’t understand. The doctor said everything looked normal at my last scan. My blood work was perfect. I was eating healthy, taking my vitamins… Why did this happe

    DOWNTOWN MEDICAL CENTER – EMERGENCY ROOM – 4:00 AMThe ambulance tore through the empty New York streets, sirens screaming like a wounded animal. Inside, Valentina lay strapped to the stretcher, her face ghostly white under the harsh lights. An oxygen mask covered her mouth and nose. An IV dripped fluids into her arm. Machines beeped wildly, warning that her blood pressure was dropping fast.“Stay with us, ma’am!” the paramedic shouted. “Keep your eyes open!”Valentina moaned weakly, tears leaking from the corners of her eyes. “My baby… please… save my baby…”In the front seat, Katherina sat with her head in her hands, shoulders shaking as she cried loudly. Tears streamed down her face. To the paramedics, she looked like a devastated big sister. Inside, her heart beat steady and cold.It’s really happening. Finally.The ambulance skidded to a stop outside the emergency entrance. Doors flew open. Nurses and doctors rushed out, shouting orders.“Thirteen-week pregnancy, heavy vaginal

    VALENTINA’S BEDROOM – 3:00 AMThe bedroom was wrapped in heavy darkness. Valentina lay curled on her side under soft silk sheets, one protective hand resting on her small baby bump. A gentle smile played on her lips even in sleep. She was dreaming of baby names Isabella for a girl, Matteo for a boy. It didn’t matter which. She just wanted this baby healthy and safe. Nicholas’s child. Their fresh start.Then the pain struck.It came like a hot knife twisting deep inside her womb.Valentina’s eyes flew open. She gasped sharply, sucking in air. Her hand pressed harder against her belly.“It’s nothing,” she whispered to the dark room. “Just cramps. Pregnancy cramps. It’ll pass.”But the second cramp hit harder vicious, tearing. She doubled over, crying out. Sweat broke across her forehead instantly. Her nightgown felt wet. Too wet.She threw the covers off and stumbled toward the bathroom, legs shaking so badly she nearly fell. When she flipped on the light, the sight made her scre

    He turned and walked toward Room 412, leaving Amelia standing alone in the noisy hallway.Machines kept beeping. Doctors kept shouting.Amelia slid down the wall, buried her face in her hands, and whispered, “Who is doing this to me?”FAVINO PENTHOUSE – 8:00 PM – SAME DAYThe penthouse was deathly quiet. The kind of silence that pressed on your chest and made every breath feel loud.Amelia sat alone on the huge couch, knees pulled to her chest, staring at nothing. Alejandro was still at the hospital. He hadn’t come home. He wasn’t answering her calls or texts. Just radio silence.Her phone buzzed.Katherina: Valentina and I are coming over. We heard what happened to Marisa. We’re not letting you sit here alone.Amelia typed back with shaking fingers: Okay.Thirty minutes later, the elevator dinged. Katherina and Valentina stepped out, both in comfy clothes, carrying bags of food that smelled amazing.“Amelia…” Valentina said softly, rushing over and pulling her into a tight hug. “Ho

    PENTHOUSE – 2:45 PMThe paramedics burst through the door like a storm. Two men and one woman rushed in, equipment clanging.“Move back! Move!” one paramedic shouted.Clara stood in the corner, shaking violently, tears streaming.“Is she going to be okay?!” she cried. “Tell me she’s going to live! She was fine just minutes ago! We were talking and drinking tea and then she just… she just dropped!”The female paramedic checked Marisa’s pulse. “Her heart rate is crashing. Get the oxygen on her now!”They slapped an oxygen mask on Marisa’s face, started an IV, and strapped her to the stretcher. Machines beeped wildly.Clara grabbed the paramedic’s arm, sobbing hysterically.“Please don’t let her die! She’s like a mother to me! She was yelling at Amelia earlier and now this! Oh God, what if she doesn’t make it?!”The paramedic pulled away gently. “We’re doing everything we can. We need to get her to the hospital right now.”As they wheeled Marisa toward the elevator, Clara followed, st

    “Or what?” Damien taunted, taking a casual step further into the room. “You’ll freeze me with a look? File a restraining order? You always did prefer paperwork to people.”“That’s enough,” Alejandro growled, his temper snapping. He moved fully in front of Amelia. “You don’t speak to her like that.”

    “It’s… it’s Mr. Favino, ma’am.” The voice on the line hesitated.“Photos. Of Mr. Favino. With another woman. In New York.”The world seemed to tip sideways. Amelia closed her eyes.“Send everything again,” she said, voice calm too calm. “And clear my schedule.”“Yes, ma’am.”The line clicked dead.
