Twice You EPILOGUE
Sirius, Always NorthDeclanThe office is silent.Only the low sound of the fireplace and the occasional click of the keyboard. I'm sitting behind the old oak desk, my elbows resting on the wood, staring at nothing. Papers are scattered in front of me—contracts, reports, proposals—but I can't focus on any of them.It's been almost sixteen years since everything began.Sixteen years since I buried a woman thinking it was Evie.Sixteen years since I lived with an empty grave.
Twice You CHAPTER 116
The roof of Trinity College was silent.It was a clear autumn night, almost fifteen years after everything began. The air was cold, but not freezing. The city lights of Dublin flickered around us, but up here the sky seemed closer. The stars were sharp, bright, almost arrogant in their constancy.Claire was beside me.She was nineteen now. Tall, slender, with her father's blue eyes and a curiosity that never diminished. Her brown hair was tied in a messy bun, and she was wearing Declan's thick jacket that she'd "borrowed" three years ago and never returned. We were both sitting on the edge of the roof, our legs swinging over the void, as I used to do when I was younger.I pointed to the s
Twice You CHAPTER 115
The first strong contraction came at three in the morning.I was lying in our bed when I felt it. It wasn't that mild pain I'd been feeling in recent weeks. It was something deeper, more intense. I woke up immediately and placed my hand on my belly. Both babies moved at the same time, as if they already knew it was time.Declan woke up the same second. He was always a light sleeper. Harvey, who was on my other side, also opened his eyes."Was that?" Declan asked, already sitting up in bed.I nodded, breathing deeply."Yes. I think it's time."Harvey stood up immedi
Twice You CHAPTER 114
We returned to the observatory on a clear winter night.The place was exactly as I remembered. The dome could still be opened, revealing the sky. The marble floor was still cold under bare feet. The walls still had those hand-painted star maps, and the small plaque with my initials was still there, a little dusty, but intact.Declan had kept the place secret all this time. After everything that happened, he'd never brought anyone here again. Until today.We three were alone.Claire was with Maeve and Matthew. The twins hadn't been born yet. The world outside was quiet. And for the first time in a long time, we weren't running from anything. Weren't fighting. Weren't surviving.We were just here.Celebrating.Declan was the first to open the dome. The ceiling moved slowly, revealing the starry sky above us. Sirius shone brightly in the upper corner, exactly as always. The same star he'd used to find me so many times. The same star that had become our symbol.Harvey was behind me, his a
Twice You CHAPTER 113
The cabin in Vermont was silent.Snow fell outside without stopping. Inside, there was only the heat of the fireplace and the tension hanging in the air between us.We'd been alone for almost a day. Without Declan. Without children. Without interruptions. And for the first time, there was no war, no trauma in our touches, nothing but the raw truth between us.Harvey was leaning against the wall near the fireplace, just wearing sweatpants. Bare chest. His brown eyes fixed on me with an intensity that made me stop in the middle of the room.He didn't say anything at first.Just looked at me.As if he were fighting something inside himself. As if he were trying to decide whether to hold back or finally show me who he was without any barriers.I took a step toward him."Harvey..."He moved away from the wall and came to me in two steps. Stopped right in front of me, close enough for me to feel the heat of his body. Raised one hand and stopped inches from my face, as if still hesitating.T
Twice You CHAPTER 112
The house was silent.Claire was spending the night with Maeve and Matthew. Harvey had traveled to Boston to sort out some company matters and wouldn't return until the next day. For the first time in a long time, the house was just ours again.Just Declan and me.I was on the porch, looking at the dark garden. My belly was big, heavy. I was wearing one of his loose t-shirts and nothing underneath. The night air was cool, but not cold. Declan appeared behind me without a sound. He wrapped his arms around my waist, his large hands resting on my belly with a delicacy he rarely showed in public.He rested his face against my neck and stayed there, just breathing.Neither of us spoke for a long time.Then he murmured against my skin:"Mo chroí."I placed my hands over his.Declan turned my face gently and kissed me. It was a slow kiss, calm, with no hurry to go anywhere. When he pulled back, his blue eyes were darker than usual."I want to enjoy this night with you," he said, his voice lo
Twice You CHAPTER 28
Two days have passed since the conservatory, and Declan’s marks on my skin still pulse like constant reminders of claimed ownership.The entire mansion walks on eggshells around us. Claire feels the tension—children always do. She spends more time in the library with me, less hanging on her father’s
Twice You CHAPTER 24
I step out of the bathroom with the matte gold ring still clenched in my fist and walk to the window in the hallway.Dublin is out there—gray, honest, imperfect under the constant rain. Old stone that doesn’t apologize for its cracks, narrow streets that weren’t planned by architects, the impossible
Twice You CHAPTER 23
The click of the lock echoes in the stone bathroom like a small victory.I need a space that is mine alone. Not the bedroom still heavy with the scent of Declan and what we just did, not the hallway where Zion patrols with absolute loyalty, not the kitchen where Claire laughs without knowing her mot
Twice You CHAPTER 22
The remorse arrives like high tide—slowly at first, then all at once.It isn’t immediate. In the first few minutes after Declan leaves the room to check something with Conor, there is only the heavy silence of the mansion settling and the ghostly echo of what we just did hanging in the air. My body
