FALLING FOR THE FORBIDDEN STAR のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 81 - チャプター 90

Chapter 81Andreas had never been a fan of chaos, but that day, in the middle of confetti, plastic cups, and Brian's football-themed birthday cake smeared across half the kitchen counter, he found the quietest storm of all hidden in the smallest gesture, Sofia’s birthday card to Brian.It was almost too easy to miss. Amid the bright scribbles and glitter glue, tucked into the crease of the folded paper, was a faint line of ink. At first glance, it seemed like just another smudge from a teenager's overenthusiastic coloring. But something told Andreas to look closer.His heart stuttered when he realized what it was: a phone number. Lightly scribbled, nearly invisible, like a secret waiting to be found by the right eyes. He glanced up immediately, scanning the compound. Tania was distracted, laughing too loudly at some joke someone told. Brian was running around with his friends, showing off his gifts to everyone with the charm of a future team captain.Andreas slipped the card under his

Chapter 83The morning sun filtered softly through the tinted windows of Mia’s car as she drove through the sleepy streets, her fingers clutching the steering wheel a little too tightly. Her mind wandered back to the early hours, to the warmth of Andreas's arms still lingering in her bones, and the tremble in his voice when he told her, "You should go see her. You both should talk things out. She deserves that."Mia had looked up at him then, her face tucked into his neck, her voice small and thick with guilt. "You really think she'll forgive me?""You never gave her a reason not to," he whispered, pressing a kiss to her forehead. "You were just scared. She’ll understand. Go. Make things right."And she had. After breakfast, she'd kissed Sofia goodbye and hugged her mother, who gave her a knowing look but said nothing. Now, with the engine humming beneath her and the scent of morning dew hanging in the air, she turned onto Susan's quiet suburban street, her heart pounding.Susan's hou

Chapter 85Title: Love in BloomThe day quickly transformed into evening as the sun cast a golden hue over Mia’s garden, bathing it in a romantic glow that made the whole place shimmer like a dream. Rows of delicate wildflowers in blush, ivory, and lavender lined the aisle, which was paved with soft white petals. The make-shift altar was a breathtaking arc of blooming roses and jasmine, wound tightly around white birchwood branches, standing tall at the garden’s edge beneath a canopy of fairy lights that flickered like a sky full of stars.What had started as a proposal wasn't just that. It had blossomed, in the most magical way, into a wedding.Everything had been meticulously planned. Andreas, ever the determined romantic, had handled every detail. With Susan’s help, who had seamlessly pulled together the floral decor, elegant table settings, and a charming dinner spread, everything came together in record time. The food smelled divine; Susan's husband, Shawn, had even helped set up

Chapter 86The sterile scent of antiseptic burned her nostrils. The hospital lobby buzzed with the quiet chaos of late-night emergencies—hushed murmurs, the distant beeping of machines, and the occasional shuffle of hurried nurses. But Tania sat still.Her hands trembled slightly as she clutched the folded test results against her lap, their corners digging into her skin like a punishment she wasn't sure she deserved. One cheek was streaked with the remnants of a tear she hadn't bothered to wipe off. Mascara had bled into the fine lines below her eyes, but she didn’t care. She looked older tonight. Tired. Stripped of the glamor she usually wore like armor.She stared down at the phone in her other hand, thumb trembling as it hovered over Andreas's name. One more time. Just once more. She dialed.The line didn’t even ring this time.Call failed.With a death glare, she whispered fiercely. "You're ignoring me now, Andreas? Now that I need you?"She stared blankly at the screen before lo

Chapter 89Andreas and Mia had no idea that while they were living in a dream, someone else was living through a nightmare.For a week, time seemed to suspend itself for Mia and Andreas as they enjoyed their honeymoon. They strolled through cobbled alleys of Greek villages, kissed under sunsets without glancing over their shoulders, because they didn't have to anymore. For once, there was no hiding. No fear. Just them—two people madly in love and finally allowed to be."You know," Mia said one evening as they sat wrapped in a blanket on the edge of a cliffside villa, overlooking the Aegean Sea, "it almost feels like the universe finally gave us permission."Andreas smiled, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "Maybe it just got tired of trying to keep us apart."They laughed. Toasted with wine. Made love in their hotel room, slowly and indulgently. Not caring if reporters caught blurry glimpses, if rumors buzzed around the internet like flies—let them. None of it mattered because
