Jackson had insisted on carrying me up to bed as soon as I had calmed down. It was hardly surprising, given the state of the living room. It was fit for nothing but burning. The events were so hazy in my mind. Jackson tried to explain it to me, but it made no sense. I barely remembered anything at all. Only really the feelings. At first I was fading away, the emptiness creeping in with the never ending blackness. Then out of nowhere came a burning rage. It made me crazy, lashing out at everyone.
“I was there. He said he would kill you and the triplets. That’s what set you off.” Jackson was hung up on what Brodie had said. It was almost as though he was trying to convince me rather than telling me.
“There is no way he meant that.” I might have been angry with Brodie, but there was just no way I would believe he could have those sorts of intentions, no matter he had said in the moment. He just was capable of that.
“He was pretty convincing. Yo

EsmeBrodie was shifting nervously on his feet. I didn’t think he even expected it to change anything, and he still couldn’t look at me. Part of him was sure it was too late to change anything, and I wasn’t convinced he was wrong. I wanted it to change something, but so much had happened and it wasn’t just me I had to think about. I had to do what was right for the babies and I had to think about Jackson, too.“What about Milly?” I asked, finally ready to put my concerns about the child into words.“What about her?” There was a level of shock and confusion in his eyes that I hadn’t been ready for.“You never bothered to tell me about her. She looks just like you.” I couldn’t understand why he had never bothered to mention her. If he had, I could have accepted her.“I know she does, but the truth is I’ve never had much to do with her. I wouldn’t know where to start and I’ve hardly got an open heart. The truth is, it never occurred to me to

BrodieHer screams ripped through me. I felt like they were coming out of my own mouth. Having no idea what I was supposed to do. I wanted to be there by her side, but that wasn’t what she wanted. I had to force myself to stay in the field. To stay away and do what was best for her. I could feel the pain she was in and it was unbearable. I had no idea how she was surviving it. She was so much stronger than I ever could have been. Only reminding me of how weak I was. I tried to pretend I wasn’t, but I knew the truth and so had my father. He had been right about me all along. It wasn’t until I met Esme that I learned what real strength looked like.Suddenly, there was silence. The pain had gone; the screams quietened. It took me a moment to realise it wasn’t because the birth was all over, but because she had left me. There was nothing. No relief, no thoughts, nothing. The emptiness pained me more than anything could have. I was on my feet and running before I h

EsmeI was hardly surprised by my little girl’s arrival. Brodie had made it clear that it was a possibility. She was tiny compared to her brother. I couldn’t help but see the comparison. She looked much more like me. I wondered if that was what we had looked like together as infants. I knew Brodie would have been considerably bigger than me, given the age gap. It still left me a bit more than uncomfortable that the three of us had been raised together, even for a short time.It was odd looking at the two of them lying on my chest. The size difference was ridiculous. I looked at Jackson, but he didn’t seem remotely concerned. The birth of my little girl had gone much more how I had expected than her brother had been. It was like he was too big for my body to handle. I felt better just knowing it was all over, even though the pains were still lurking around.We hadn’t managed to get much in the way of baby bits. It was difficult when my pregnancy had been

BrodieI couldn’t stay in there when I could see how much distress she was in. She hated me so much that even seeing me was too much. I stood out there in the rain, as though everything going on inside was nothing to do with me. The baby or babies were already more Jackson’s than mine and the idea killed me. He would be welcomed into that room while I stayed outside in the cold. I never could have imagined the gravity of the consequences of my mistakes.For a while, I had thought Jackson wanted her as his own and although I had been wrong, it had turned out that way, anyway. Jackson was her partner in everything and had been there for her and the baby. I was nothing, and he was everything. I felt like my heart was literally tearing in two. Between my pain and hers, I could barely stand it. Everything was coursing through me and it was too much to handle. The pain, the rage, the longing for Jackson. I could hear her crying out his name in her mind over and over

EsmeThe pain seemed to reverberate through me, wave after wave. I needed Jackson. He was the only one that would be able to stop me from finding comfort in Brodie. Each time he reached for me, I pulled away, but I was getting weaker in my resolve. I couldn’t let him get close. My need for him was too great. If I dared give into him, I would be lost to him. I loved him so much, but it didn’t change everything he had done. I needed a distance between us, especially at that moment.So many times, Jackson and I had discussed how hard it would be for me to see the baby and not let my love for Brodie creep back in. Love was a convincing force. It could easily persuade me to accept the status quo at the camp. To make me think that second place was better than not having him at all. I could see the concern in his eyes, and it was enough to make my resolve soften. Seeing him like that was enough to convince me that I was the only person he ever looked at like that. Ex
