Rachel's pov The next morning...I was woken up by the rays of light shining bright on my face. I turned and stretched my arms wide enough, but got a quick bolt of fear flow into me when my hand touched the skin of someone beside me.I gasped and sat up with my eyes wide open. A man on the bed with me. How.....What happened.....What is going on.... who is he?....I had lots of questions running through my head at the same time. What was happening? Why was a man naked on the same bed as me? I am naked too.Everything that happened at night came rushing back to my memory. I had slept with the man beside me. I had slept with Noah Grande.I pulled out a gasp from my throat and moved back in fright. My heart was beating faster than normal, realizing what I had done. I had betrayed my boyfriend and my sister. Her fiance was the man on my bed. Surprisingly, it felt so good. I could still remember the ecstasy feeling he made me feel. It felt so good.I hit my forehead realizing I was reminis

Rachel's Pov "What?!" Did I seduce him? Even though I was drunk and out of my senses, I clearly remembered what happened between us. There was no way I seduced him. He was in the room when I got there. I never went into that room alone. Kimberly took me in there herself. "What are you talking about? I never seduced you. We both did it willingly." He smirked and pressed back, "There is no way I will willingly lay with you when I am in love with Kimberly. I will never betray her. You did it cause you wanted me right from the beginning." "I seduced you? Noah, I was drunk. We both were drunk and it happened. I never seduced you."He laughed and shook his head in utmost disbelief.I swallowed hard and drew forward with my palms resting on the table, "Kimberly is also my sister and I will never betray her willingly. I never wanted you." I was getting annoyed with how he took it.We should both be finding a way to resolve this and not blaming anyone. This was no one's fault except the a

Kelvin's POVI stormed into the house, slamming the door shut behind me. I was fuming in rage, but it wasn’t from what anyone thought it was. It was something else, and as usual on entering, My parents, the Pattersons, pounced on me as usual.“Can you see the humiliation that girl has caused us!” my father said angrily, rising from his chair.“I had always known she was a good-for-nothing,” my mother chimed in, glaring at me as if Rachel's issue was my doing. “She tends to cause problems wherever she goes.”I stood there watching them say all sorts of things about her, letting their words stab me at various angles. The actual problem here wasn’t Rachael. She was never the problem. I know I should feel angry for what she had done, or at least pretend to be hurt, but deep down, I was amused. I loved it I wasn’t mad at Rachel for sleeping with Noah. It was just the perfect excuse, an excuse for me to finally be free and distance myself from her and whatever mess she'd caused herself. Al

Rachel's POVWeeks went by in a blur and while the pain in my head was gradually subsiding, the fragments of my memories slowly came back in bits but were disjointed and confusing. Sometimes it felt like trying to piece together, solving a puzzle with missing pieces. All I could see were faces, words, and feelings all jumbled up, they all drifted in and out, but nothing solid yet.Sophia and Rayna had been very kind to me, keeping me safe indoors. Every time I asked why I wasn’t allowed outside, Sophia would shrug it off, saying it was “for my good.”Rayna, on the other hand, was a darling, not making her bored for a single moment. She filled the long hours with chatter, stories, and games, always trying to keep me away from thinking too much. Her laughter was so contagious and her presence helped distract me from the endless questions running through my mind.I sat by the window, one afternoon with Sophia, I absentmindedly felt the necklace hanging around my neck. It felt familiar s

Rachel’s POVI started considering Sophia's suggestion to leave the country, the decision weighing heavily on me. My mind, went back and forth, thinking about every possible outcome, But in the end, I finally agreed to Sophia’s advice.It wouldn't be easy, saying goodbye to the place where I had spent my entire life, where every memory, both good and bad, was embedded. But Sophia made it possible, determined, her support was unwavering as she helped pack our belongings, making arrangements for a fresh start.As we gathered the rest of our things, something hit me, hard. A sudden realization sets in making my breath stuck in my throat.I have not had my monthly period in a while.I froze as the thought finally settled in, cold and heavy. I tried to recall the last time, but my mind came up blank. How had I not noticed before? Or maybe I was just ignoring the signs, I had been feeling thoroughly weak and had been vomiting all through the week. The struggles of the past few weeks, oversh
