Sophia’s POVI stared at the bathroom door, my heart thumping in my chest. I held my breath as I waited for it to open, bracing myself for his presence. But then, the sound of the shower came again, and I realized he was still in there, oblivious to the world outside, including Reese's tiny voice over the phone.I turned my attention back to the screen where Reese's face filled the frame. Her big, expressive eyes stared back at me with confusion and disappointment. “Mommy, why can't you come home and sleep beside me?” she asked, her lower lip quivering.I sighed softly, my heart aching at the sight. “Sweetheart, I have some work to do, and I'll be away for a few days. But don't worry, your Aunt Kayla and your nanny will be with you the whole time. They'll take good care of you.”Reese's small brow furrowed, and she didn't nod. Her eyes, so much like Elijah's, mirrored the same stubbornness I often saw in him. “But I want you, Mommy.”“I know, baby,” I whispered, trying to keep my voi

Sophia’s POVI opened my eyes the next morning and gasped as I realized I was being held tightly in Elijah’s arms — wearing nothing!My heart raced as memories of last night flooded back. The craziness, getting carried away in the middle of the night—I felt a blush creeping up my cheeks. Carefully, I slipped out of his arms, not wanting to wake him.The rain was still pouring outside, a steady rhythm against the window. I made my way to the bathroom, cleaned up, and got dressed. When I returned, I noticed Elijah was awake too. The words caught in my throat as we stared at each other for a while. “Hey, good morning,” he said a little awkwardly. Perhaps he too was unsure how to address what had happened between us. “Uh, good morning,” I replied, my voice squeaking out in a weird way. I tried to suppress the fluttering in my chest.Elijah sat on the bed, shirtless, already engrossed in answering emails. He didn’t say anything else but went back to what he was doing. I sat on the couc

Elijah’s POVLooking at Sophia's back as she fled into the apartment building, I couldn't help but feel the weight of the last few days pressing down on me. The wonderful, intimate, wild moments we'd shared seemed to replay in my mind, each memory a vivid flash that made my heart ache with longing. God, how I want to be with her again, to feel the warmth of her body and see that spark in her eyes! The thought of it made me chuckle and shake my head in disbelief. Of all the things that could happen, this unexpected reunion had to be the funniest and most unexpected twist life had thrown at me in a long time.Just as I was about to leave, I noticed a small figure near Sophia's apartment. My heart skipped a beat as I recognized the little girl—Reese. She held a stuffed toy in her hand, and was skipping along the sidewalk. What’s she doing here? My curiosity piqued, and a sense of protectiveness surged within me. I got out of the car and walked over to her. “Hey, Reese?” I called sof

Elijah’s POVI exchanged a quick glance with Serena, a silent conversation passing between us. Reese was smiling so brightly, her little face lighting up with joy. “Mommy’s work!” she exclaimed, pointing to the design on the desk. “Look at that smile,” Serena exclaimed. She stared at the little girl, seemingly scrutinizing her. “She looks just like Sophia.”I nodded, my throat tightening. “Yeah, I’ve been thinking that for some time now. So it’s not surprising that I’m not the only one who thinks so.”Serena walked over to Reese and crouched down to her level. “Hello again, sweetie,” she said softly. “Why are you excited about that design?”Reese beamed up at her and then pointed to the design again. “Mommy made this,” she declared proudly.My heart pounded wildly. A little girl can’t possibly lie like that, right? This could really be Sophia’s daughter!Serena stared at Reese with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. It was a fake, strained smile that made something twist in my gut.

Elijah’s POVI came home late that night, the exhaustion of the day's work settling into my bones. But I couldn’t stop thinking about Reese, picturing her cute little smile and hearing her adorable voice. The house was dark and quiet. I hung my coat on the rack and made my way to my study, craving a few moments of solitude before heading to bed.I sat down heavily in my chair, staring at a file on my desk that seemed to taunt me with its presence. I'd hired a detective to look into Reese, and now the results were staring back at me, demanding attention.I opened the file and flipped through the pages, each piece of information making my heart beat faster. Reese had been born in France, and the date of birth matched perfectly with the timeline when Sophia was pregnant. The pieces fit together in a way that made too much sense, yet still seemed surreal.“Reese looks like Sophia,” Serena had commented earlier today. “It's not just you, Elijah.”I rubbed my temples, trying to make sense
