Lucas’s fingers curled tightly into the bedsheet.

“I don’t know. I…” He squeezed his eyes shut briefly, then forced the truth out. “What I’m feeling.”

A heavy, sharp silence fell.

“I feel scared,” Lucas said again, his voice barely above a whisper.

And that did it.

Something in Alex’s expression shattered. Pain flickered across his face, deep and unguarded, as if the words had cut straight through him.

“Please don’t be scared of what you’re feeling,” Alex said quickly, his voi

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chaper 189. More scheming

    The rest of the day passed in a blur for Lucas. Doctors came and left. Nurses checked on him occasionally. EvenHis father stopped by twice, each time reminding him to rest and avoid “unnecessary stress,” which Lucas knew was another way of saying avoid Alex. However, avoiding Alex proved harder than he expected. This was because, somehow, Alex remained in his thoughts. Every quiet moment brought back the sadness in his eyes before he left. Every silence reminded him of the warmth of his touch. The worst part was that it frustrated him. By evening, the sky outside the hospital windows had darkened completely when Derby finally arrived. Lucas heard her before he properly saw her—the soft click of heels against the tiled floor. Then the door opened. A beautiful young woman stepped in, elegant even after what appeared to be a rushed trip. Her hair framed her face neatly. The moment she saw Lucas, concern immediately filled her expression. “Oh my God, Lucas dear.” She hu

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 188. One who walked away

    His phone started buzzing again.This time, he answered it as he stepped out, his voice low and distant. The door clicked shut. Another crushing silence followed. Lucas stared at the space he left behind, his chest tight, his thoughts in chaos. His father’s words echoed in one ear, and Alex’s in the other. Somewhere in between remained a feeling he couldn’t explain. “Dad,” Lucas whispered finally, not looking away from the door.But even he didn’t know what he wanted to ask anymore. The door had barely clicked shut behind Alex when the silence he left behind began to press in on Lucas. It was heavy and suffocating. “Lucas,” his father’s voice softened, stepping closer to the bed as if nothing had just happened. “You have to understand, this is for the best.” Lucas didn’t respond. His eyes were still fixed on the door. As if, if he stared long enough, it might open again ushering Alex in. His father noticed, but he ignored it and continued. “Lucas, he was

    “How can you tell him we have nothing?” Alex continued, stepping forward, eyes burning. “You know exactly what we have. You know how much I care about him. Why are you doing this?” He didn’t wait for an answer. He crossed the room in quick strides and reached for Lucas’s hand. He held it gently but firmly, as if it were the only thing keeping him grounded. “Sweetheart…” His voice softened instantly. All the anger melted into something raw and desperate. “I know he’s your father, but please, don’t believe everything he’s telling you, okay?” Lucas looked up at him, eyes wide, torn and searching. “I’m your Alex,” he said quietly, his thumb brushing over Lucas’s knuckles. “And I would never hurt you. Never.” Lucas’s fingers were still loosely wrapped around Alex’s when the older man stormed forward and yanked their hands apart. The sharp motion startled both of them. “Don’t touch him!” his father barked, stepping in front of the bed like a shield. His chest heaved, ey

And that did it. Something in Alex’s expression shattered. Pain flickered across his face, deep and unguarded, as if the words had cut straight through him. “Please don’t be scared of what you’re feeling,” Alex said quickly, his voice dropping, almost fragile now. “Don’t look at me like a stranger. I’m not going to hurt you.” Lucas didn’t respond. He couldn’t. His chest was too tight, emotions clashing…fear, confusion… and something else he didn’t understand. Alex’s hand twitched at his side, like he wanted to reach for him again but held himself back. “I’m your Alex,” he said softly, almost like a reminder or a plea. “I would never…” A sharp vibration cut through the moment with the buzzing of Alex’s phone.

  • UNCHARTED PATH    Chapter 185. Fractured touch

    Lucas lay still, eyes shut, breaths too measured. The steady beep of the monitor filled the quiet room, but his mind was anything but calm. It had been two days since he woke up. Two days of partial amnesia. Two days of confusion about one man who refused to leave his side. Alex had always spent his free time with Lucas who always pretended to be asleep. He was aware that he was faking the sleep but decided to give him time. Unfortunately, that afternoon, Alex came by when the doctor was making his rounds. He decided to expose it. Lucas’s fingers twitched slightly against the bedsheet as that familiar scent drifted into the room. He had already memorized that cologne. It was clean, sharp, with something warm beneath it. “He’s here again.” He muttered.Instinctively, he stilled his body, forcing his breathing back into that slow, even rhythm he thought he had perfected. The door clicked softly. Alex and the doctor stepped in. “Doctor, how is he today?” Alex’s v

    “Due to the head injury,” the doctor continued, “he has lost specific memories, likely tied to a certain period or emotional connections. However, other memories remain intact.” Mr. Westman frowned. “Will he recover?” “It’s possible,” the doctor replied carefully. “Memories can return gradually, especially with familiar environments and people. But there’s no exact timeline.” Lucas looked between them all, the tension and pain in their faces, only deepening his confusion. “I’m… really sorry,” he said again, quieter this time. But his apology only made it worse because the truth was now undeniable. Lucas remembered his world but not the part that included Benson's. Seeing the worry in their faces, the doctor said, “Come on guys, you shouldn't keep a sad face. He just needs time and your support. For now, he needs lots of rest. So I will suggest that you go home and return tomorrow.” Mrs Benson went closer and said almost in tears, “Lucas dear, I'm Alex’s mothe

    Lucas’s jaw clenched as he stared at the screen, his heart pounding with fury. “What audacity he has,” Lucas muttered audibly. His father had actually frozen his accounts. All of them. He ran a hand through his hair, breathing heavily through his nose as the waiter hovered nearby, trying to a

    While Alex and Lucas were lost in a whirlwind of passion, oblivious to the world beyond their entanglement, another plan was quietly brewing elsewhere. The one that would soon threaten everything they share. Mr. Westman had arranged a private dinner with Mr. Ashton, Derby’s father. It wasn’t jus

    “Listen,” Lucas said, trying to stay calm, “I’m not getting dragged into this ridiculous setup. Why don’t you tell that creep or whoever that guy is—that you’re not interested? Marriage shouldn’t be forced.” Derby let out a soft, humorless laugh. “You really think it’s that simple, don’t you? Lu

    He rechecked the map. Still moving, but he was no longer on the old textile road. Immediately, Dan’s voice crackled in his earpiece. “Update boss, the guy took a detour — he is along the industrial lane now, heading toward the Seabridge outskirts. I think he might be heading towards the beach.
