Cassandra woke up feeling a little lighter that morning. For the first time in weeks, she smiled to herself. She sat up on the bed and touched the drawer where she hid Marcus’s letter. It still felt unreal that he was alive.

She took the letter out again and read it for the tenth time.

“Cassie, I’m sorry for everything. I’ll come back for you when the time is right. Please don’t give up on me. I love you.”

Her eyes softened. “I knew you’d never leave me, Marcus,” she whispered with a weak smile.

Nathaniel had already gone to work. The house felt peaceful, and that gave her the space she needed to think. She quickly dressed up, applied light makeup, and carried her purse. She had to tell someone — she had to tell Vanessa.

Vanessa was sitting in a quiet corner of a small café when Cassandra arrived. She was sipping iced coffee, scrolling through her phone. When she looked up and saw Cassandra, she raised her brow.

“Wow, look who finally remembered I exist,” Vanessa said

    Six months later, the house was filled with laughter again. The sound of Liam’s tiny footsteps running around the living room brought so much joy to everyone. Aunty Lisa sat on the couch, smiling as she watched him play with his toy cars. Savannah, now heavily pregnant, sat beside her with a glowing smile. Her baby bump showed clearly under her light dress. Adrian came in from the kitchen, holding a glass of juice. “Here, my love,” he said softly, handing it to her. “Thank you,” she smiled, taking a sip. “You’ve been so caring lately.” Adrian grinned. “You’re carrying my little princess. Of course, I’ll take care of you.” Liam turned and gasped playfully. “Daddy, how do you know it’s a girl?” Adrian bent down to his level. “Because I can feel it,” he said with a wink. Liam giggled. “Then I’ll be the best big brother ever!” Everyone laughed. The whole house felt warm — filled with love, laughter, and peace. After all the storms, this was finally their sunshine. ---

    Two days later, Savannah was finally discharged from the hospital. Her hand was still bandaged, and Adrian’s shoulder had a light dressing, but both of them were just grateful to be alive. When they got home, Liam came running toward them the moment they stepped inside. “Mommy! Daddy!” he shouted happily. He hugged Savannah’s legs tightly. “I missed you so much!” Savannah smiled weakly, tears of joy filling her eyes. “I missed you too, baby.” Adrian lifted Liam into his arms and kissed his cheek. “Our little man has been so strong,” he said softly. “You made Mommy proud.” Aunty Lisa came out from the kitchen, wiping her hands on her apron. The moment she saw Savannah, she broke into tears. “Oh thank God you’re back safe, my child!” she cried, hugging her tightly. Savannah smiled and held her close. “I’m fine now, Aunty Lisa. Everything is over.” Aunty Lisa nodded and looked at Adrian. “Thank you, my son. You did well. You protected her just like I prayed.” Adrian smi

    The next morning was quiet, but the peace didn’t last long. Savannah was still resting in the hospital when Detective Henry came in with serious news. Adrian sat up straight, holding her hand tightly.“We caught most of the people,” the detective said. “But Cassandra escaped last night. She tricked one of the guards and ran. We believe she’s planning something dangerous.”Adrian’s heart dropped. “You mean she’s still out there?”Henry nodded. “Yes. And we think she won’t stop until she gets what she wants.”Savannah’s hands started shaking. “She’ll come for us again,” she whispered. “I can feel it.”Adrian stood up, angry and scared at the same time. “She won’t touch you again. I’ll make sure of that.”Nathaniel, who had been sitting quietly in the corner, spoke up. “We need to end this now. Before she hurts anyone else.”Henry agreed. “We’ve been tracking her phone. It seems she’s heading toward the old factory at the edge of town. We’ll surround the place tonight.”Adrian turn

    The news spread fast. By the time the police finished taking Rose’s statement, the whole street was full of neighbors and sirens. Adrian could not stand still. He paced like a man on fire, calling anyone who might help. His head felt empty and full at the same time. He had to move. He had to find her.Detective Henry arrived quickly. He was calm, the kind of calm that made others less crazy. He put a hand on Adrian’s shoulder. “Tell me everything again, slowly,” he said.Adrian told the story in a broken voice. He told Henry about the van, the masks, the way Savannah screamed. He told him about the strange call that said, “We have your wife.” Henry listened, taking notes, eyes sharp.“We’ll run CCTV from the area,” Henry said. “We’ll check the route, the traffic cameras, any plate, any van. We’ll put out an alert to nearby units. We’ll get men on the road. We have to move fast.”Adrian nodded like a man who agreed with anything. He wanted to do more than nod. He wanted to hunt. He w

    It was a bright afternoon, calm and peaceful. The birds outside sang softly, and Savannah felt the cool breeze brush against her skin as she stood near the balcony. For the first time in weeks, she felt like she could breathe again. Adrian had gone out for a short business meeting, promising to be back in an hour. “Don’t stress yourself, baby,” he had said before leaving. “I’ll be back soon. I’ve asked Rose to stay close to you.” Savannah smiled and nodded, waving at him as he left. But deep down, a strange feeling was crawling inside her. Something didn’t feel right. She turned to Rose. “I just want to take a short walk outside the gate. I’ll be fine.” Rose hesitated. “Madam, sir said—” “I’ll only be a minute,” Savannah interrupted softly. “I just need some fresh air.” Rose sighed and nodded. “Okay ma’am, but please be careful.” Savannah stepped out of the gate. The air outside was fresh, the sun warm. She rubbed her belly gently and whispered to her unborn baby, “M
