Your brother, my husband Epilogue
Ten Years LaterThe laughter reached me before I even opened the gate.Serena was chasing two puppies around the backyard, her curls bouncing wildly, her laughter high and pure. She wore a plastic tiara and a glittery tutu over her leggings, absolutely convinced she was royalty. And honestly? We all agreed.Leah stood on the porch with a cup of tea, looking so peaceful I almost forgot everything she’d endured to reach this moment. She waved at me with that same gentle smile—the one that always said, “You’re home.”“Still keeping the crown?” I asked as I stepped through the gate, gesturing to Serena’s tiara.“She said being a princess was a lifelong job,” Leah replied with a grin, sipping from her favorite floral mug.Cassie arrived just then, chaos following close behind. Her husband Jackson wrangled their twin toddlers while she swept through the garden like a glittery storm, waving a sequined bag and calling, “I brought glitter and chaos!”Yes, you heard me. Cassie—the once fiercely

Naomi's pov The morning light bled gold across the bedroom walls, wrapping us in a warm, honeyed glow that made everything feel timeless. I lay there, the sheet twisted around my bare legs, watching the way it painted shadows on Raymond's skin. His chest rose and fell in deep, unhurried breaths, peaceful in sleep, and absolutely beautiful.Last night had been... intense. Slow, passionate, deliberate. One of those moments when time itself seemed to stretch, where every breath, every touch, every whispered word pulled us closer. Not just physically—but emotionally, spiritually.We hadn’t had a night like that in a while. Between work, family, Miranda's growing independence, and Serena never-ending curiosity, time alone had become rare. Precious.But last night, we reclaimed each other.He stirred beside me, arm reaching instinctively for my waist. When his hand found skin, he hummed low in his throat and pulled me closer.“Mmm... morning already?” he mumbled, eyes still closed.“Barel

Naomi's POVThe house smelled like cinnamon, lavender, and warm light. That was always the scent of home to me. Not a place, but a feeling. A scent that reminded me we had survived the fire, the storms, the heartbreak—and built something stronger in the ashes.I stood at the edge of the living room, watching Leah as she sat by the window. The journal she had been writing in for months lay open across her lap. Her pen moved slowly, thoughtfully, while Serena, now a chubby-cheeked toddler with a crown of curls, sat on the floor stacking wooden blocks with the kind of concentration only babies have.Outside, the garden shimmered in golden hour light. Sunflowers leaned toward the sky. Wind chimes sang in the breeze. And the laughter of family filtered in from the back porch.Time had passed. Seasons had changed. But something about today felt... significant.Final.Like a chapter closing.I walked into the room slowly. Leah looked up and smiled the same soft smile that once held so much

Leah's Pov Weeks passed in the kind of rhythm that could only be set by a newborn baby and a house full of family. Serena Hope Darlington was the sun in our little solar system. We revolved around her, completely enamored, completely changed. She kept bringing joy to our lives.Our days were filled with soft lullabies, diaper changes, warm bottles, and the sort of laughter that came from deep contentment. The nursery smelled like lavender and baby lotion. The whole house smelled like love.The house smelt of baby lotion and I couldn't get enough of the smell.Alex was home more often than not. He had turned his home office into a partial nursery annex, complete with a baby swing and a bassinet under his desk. During conference calls, Serena often made her presence known with tiny coos, and Alex—once the most polished executive in the city—would pause mid-meeting just to kiss her forehead.“I used to care about quarterly reports,” he whispered one morning as we watched Beatrice stret

Leah's Pov The night was unusually still. No crickets, no city hum, just silence. I sat by the nursery window, one hand resting over my belly, the other scribbling into my journal. Serena's name was written in loopy cursive across the top of the page, and I was describing how perfect the mobile looked, spinning gently above her crib.Then it happened.A slow tightening.Then another.And I knew."Alex," I whispered, nudging him gently. He stirred, groggy but instantly alert when he saw my face. "It’s time."He shot out of bed. "Now? Are you sure?"I nodded, gripping the sheets as the next contraction built like a wave and crashed through me.Everything after that became a blur of movement. Naomi arrived in ten minutes, somehow fully dressed and calm, like she’d been preparing for this moment for weeks. Rachel followed, calling the doctor, calming Miranda who was crying happy tears and packing baby socks that we definitely didn’t need for a hospital delivery.Alex never left my side

Leah's Pov The house was a sea of baby items—bags of tiny clothes, boxes of diapers, towers of wipes, cribs half-assembled, and one pink giraffe rocking horse with a bow tied around its neck (courtesy of Cassie, of course).Naomi sat on the couch, folding baby socks with military precision, while Rachel and Miranda tried to fit all the gift boxes into the guest room closet like it was Tetris.“This giraffe is bigger than I was when I was born,” Rachel muttered, shoving the stuffed animal into the corner.Miles chuckled from where he was labeling baby drawers. “You were born loud, not big. There’s a difference.”“Hey!” she threw a plush rattle at him, missing by an inch.Meanwhile, Raymond stood at the kitchen island with my dad, putting together a fancy baby bottle sterilizer like they were decoding a nuclear device.“This piece goes into that base—no, no, you’re holding it upside down,” Dad said, squinting at the instructions.Raymond sighed. “How is this harder than managing two gl
