Emily’s pov

Forgiveness.

The word sat in my chest like a stone, heavy and unmovable.

I wasn’t sure when Alex had become the kind of man who could make me cry at work, but here we were.

I wiped at my damp cheeks again, pressing the handkerchief he had given me against my skin as if it could erase not just the tears, but the ache they came from.

He was still crouched in front of me, close enough that I could see the faint shadow of stubble on his jaw and the small crease between his brows that appeared whenever he was serious.

This was a version of Alex I had rarely seen, stripped of arrogance, stripped of smug confidence.

I didn’t trust it but damn, I wanted to.

“You’ve got a way of ruining Mondays,” I finally whispered, trying to lighten the weight in the room.

His lips quivered, the ghost of a smirk threatening to return, but he swallowed it down. “I’ll take that as progress. At least you’re not tell

  • UNBREAK MY HEART   Chapter 120

    Emily’s POVThe restaurant lights cast a golden glow over the table, soft and forgiving, as if even the room itself wanted to give us this fragile truce.Hours had passed since that first heavy silence, yet I still found myself glancing across the table at Ava and Ezra as though I had to keep checking, checking that this wasn’t a dream, that they were really here, that we were all still sitting together without the old wounds bleeding us dry.Ava was smiling, her cheeks flushed from laughter. Ezra’s hand rested casually on hers, a small gesture but one that spoke volumes. Across from me, Alex leaned close, his arm brushing mine on the seat. There was an ease to him tonight, something I hadn’t seen in far too long.And me, I felt lighter. As though some invisible chain I had dragged behind me for years had finally fallen away.When the plates were cleared and the laughter had settled into something quieter, we spilled out onto the street.The night air was cool, crisp with the kind of

  • UNBREAK MY HEART   Chapter 119

    Chapter 119Ava’s PovI’d been nervous before. Nervous before work presentations, before interviews, before seeing Ezra again but this, this was a different kind of nerves.Dinner with Alex and Emily. The four of us at one table. The thought was almost absurd, like we were characters in some play where every line carried the weight of the past.Ezra’s hand found mine as we stepped into the restaurant. His grip was steady, grounding, and I clung to it like it was the only thing keeping me upright.“You’re quiet,” he murmured as the host led us through the dimly lit space.“I’m trying not to throw up,” I admitted, and that earned a soft laugh from him.“You’ll be fine,” he said, but I could feel the tension in him too. His shoulders were a little too stiff, his jaw a little too tight.The host stopped at a corner booth and there they were.Alex looked up first, his expression unreadable, though I saw the flicker of surprise, maybe even relief when he spotted Ezra. Emily sat beside h

  • UNBREAK MY HEART   Chapter 118

    Ezra’s POVThe city outside my window hummed like it always did, a low, constant pulse of life that made silence impossible but somehow made the quiet moments feel sharper.I stood by the counter, pouring two glasses of wine, listening to Ava’s soft laugh from my couch.She was curled up there, barefoot, legs tucked beneath her, wearing one of my hoodies like she’d always belonged in it. Her hair was still damp from the rain we’d gotten caught in earlier, curling at the ends, clinging to her neck.It hit me then how easy this was, how natural it felt. For years I’d kept myself carefully walled off from anything that looked like romance, like intimacy. But Ava had slipped through the cracks before I even realized the walls were crumbling.I brought her the wine and sat beside her. “Here.”“Thanks.” She took the glass, fingers brushing mine, and gave me that small, knowing smile she had, half shy, half dangerous. “You’re quiet tonight.”“I’m thinking,” I admitted.“About what?” She tuck

  • UNBREAK MY HEART   Chapter 117

    Emily’s PovThe walk back from the restaurant felt endless.Every step was heavy with Jace’s words, echoing in my head like a song I couldn’t turn off.“I wouldn’t make you doubt yourself.”“You don’t have to keep bleeding for someone just because you loved him first.”“Love should be simple.”God.He was right. On some level, I knew he was.Being with Jace would be easy. He’d never once made me feel like I was too much, or not enough, or anything in between. He saw me, he really saw me and wanted me, even when I was at my lowest.And yet…When I closed my eyes, it wasn’t Jace’s voice I heard. It wasn’t his arms I remembered wrapping around me last night. It wasn’t his whisper that had pulled me out of the darkness I’d been drowning in for months.It was Alex.“I love you.”The words he’d finally spoken, the ones I’d waited for, clung to me like a second skin, and no matter how hard I tried to shake them, they rooted deeper, steadying me in a way Jace’s certainty couldn’t.By the time

  • UNBREAK MY HEART   Chapter 116

    The sunlight dragged me awake before I was ready.For the first time in weeks, I hadn’t fallen asleep alone. Alex’s warmth had been beside me, his words still wrapped around me like an anchor.I love you.They echoed in my mind, soft and steady, soothing every jagged corner of my heart.But when I blinked awake, he was gone.The sheets were still warm where he’d been, the faint trace of his cologne lingering in the air. A folded note sat on the nightstand.My chest tightened as I reached for it.Didn’t want to wake you.Call me when you’re ready.I meant every word -Alex.I pressed the note against my lips, torn between relief and fear. Relief that he was finally fighting for me the way I’d always wanted. Fear that letting myself believe him again might be the biggest mistake of my life.The day stretched forward, heavy with possibilities I wasn’t sure I wanted to face.I was making coffee when my phone buzzed. For a split second, I thought it was Alex, but when I glanced at the scre

  • UNBREAK MY HEART   Chapter 115

    Alex's PovThe moment stretched between us, heavy but alive. Emily’s words, “I don’t know if I can forgive you, but I’m listening” kept echoing in my chest like the only lifeline I’d been thrown in weeks. Listening meant hope. Listening meant I hadn’t lost her completely. I didn’t push closer right away. One wrong move and she’d shut me out again. Instead, I let myself breathe in the quiet, breathe her in, the lavender and candle smoke lingering on her skin, the warmth of her presence that I’d missed more than I could admit. Her eyes flicked down, then back up, guarded but soft around the
