•Juliet POV•"I'm sorry, Jules," Vera said as she struggled with the man holding her back. "I thought he was going to hurt you, and he wasn't going to give you Jace.""Vera, please don't apologize," I told her, my voice laced with anger as I looked toward Edward. I could only blame him for bringing the cops. If he hadn't, I would’ve walked out of this place with my son and wouldn’t have had to go through all this.Edward sniffled as he ruffled his shoulder, trying to pull out of the man's hold, but he couldn't. James walked away, leaving us alone with his men, and when he came back, he had a glass of liquor in his hand, taking a slow sip from it."I'm pissed as fuck, and I'm not going to spare any of you," he groaned, staring at the cops. He signaled for one of his men to come closer. "Get rid of the cops, that guy, and this lady. I'll handle the two lovebirds myself.""No, James. Please don't hurt Edward. I don't care if you kill Juliet, but leave Edward out of this," Raya said, her

•Juliet POV•I turned on the shower and stepped into the bathroom, letting the warm water run down my body. My eyes fluttered shut as I stood under the spray, feeling the steady stream graze my skin like a soft, comforting touch. The warmth melted into my sore muscles, washing away the tension from the day, a day that had threatened to tear me apart.For a few minutes, I stayed like that, just letting the water fall, grounding me in the moment. I tried not to think. I just stood there, breathing in the steam and silence.Eventually, I turned off the water and reached for a towel, wrapping it around myself. I padded into my bedroom, still dripping slightly, and pulled out a soft, knee-length cream dress from the closet. It hugged me gently, light and breathable. I ran a brush through my hair and pulled it into a simple ponytail before pausing in front of the mirror. My reflection stared back at me, quiet and thoughtful.I exhaled a long breath, the kind that came from deep in my chest.

•Juliet’s POV•The buttery taste of the cake wrapped around my tongue like a flash of memory, and I could almost see myself with that same smile I had years ago when Edward bought that same cake for me.The feeling of hope, the expectation, and then the image of him cheating on me and lying to me, flooded my mind. I dropped the cake I’d taken a bite from and quickly gulped down the piece still in my mouth.“Are you okay?” Vera asked when she noticed the look on my face.I nodded with a faint smile. “Yeah, I’m fine.”“Well, you should be. This cake is enough to make anyone be fine. Gosh, Edward really knows how to get to a woman’s heart.”I glanced at Vera with a puzzled expression as she took another mouthful of cake, clearly enjoying herself. I couldn’t stop myself from wondering why she was suddenly speaking so positively about Edward.“Vera, I’ve noticed something weird about you these days,” I said, my voice laced with softness and seriousness.She stopped chewing and stared at me

•Edward POV•Everything seemed blank in my head as I lay there, the drowsy feeling relieving me softly. But I had my eyes closed, the image of the incident replaying in my head until I heard Jace’s voice.His voice was like a reminder to me of how much I needed to be awake, how much I needed to be strong. I brushed my hand softly over his hair, a smile pulling up on my lips."Are you okay, Mr. Edward?" he asked, his eyes peering at me with curiosity."Yes, I'm fine," I mumbled, trying to sit up, but the ache in my arm stopped me. I winced at the pain and groaned softly."Are you okay?" Josh asked, and I looked to see him sitting on the couch next to me. My gaze drifted from him to Juliet and her friend standing close to the door, staring at me. Seeing Juliet standing there was almost like a dream to me.It only meant one thing, she had come to check up on me. I felt ease in my heart knowing the fact that she didn't hate me like she did before. She walked further into the room and stoo

•Juliet POV•The rest of the week passed by in a flash, and before I knew it, it was Saturday. I rolled over to the other side of my bed and, surprisingly, touched someone. I raised my head for a better view, and saw that it was Jace.He must’ve left his room to come sleep in mine. A smile tugged at my lips as I pulled him close into a cuddle. While I watched him sleep, I could lie to myself or to anyone else, but I couldn’t deny the fact that whenever I stared at Jace, it felt like I was staring at Edward. They had almost everything in common, blue eyes, perfect curly hair, and even their body composure.Jace was like a smaller version of Edward, and the thought alone made me feel slightly uneasy. If I accepted Edward back into my life, would he do the same thing he did that tore us apart? What if I ended up regretting it?I was pulled out of my thoughts by the ringing of the alarm clock. I gently pulled my hand away from Jace and reached out to turn it off. When I turned back to him
