Chapter 30: Pieces of Us

Chapter 30: Pieces of UsOne lazy Sunday morning, I woke up to find Travis already awake, tracing gentle patterns on my skin.“Morning, sleepyhead,” he murmured, voice thick with affection.I smiled, stretching toward him. “Morning.”He kissed my forehead, fingers threading through my hair. “I don’t want this day to end.”“Me neither,” I whispered, curling into his warmth.We spent the day wrapped in each other’s arms, talking about dreams, fears, and everything in between. Love was no longer just a feeling—it was a promise we made every day with a look, a touch, a whispered “I’m here.”Days slipped by like a gentle breeze, each one wrapping us closer in a cocoon of shared laughter, stolen glances, and quiet understanding. It was in the little things that I found myself falling more for Travis—how he’d leave a cup of coffee by my bedside when I was too tired to make it myself, or the way his hand would find mine in the middle of a crowded room like it belonged there.One afternoon, Tr

Chapter 31: Breathless in His Arms

Chapter 31: Breathless in His ArmsHis lips crashed against mine, fierce and demanding, stealing my breath away. I wrapped my arms around his neck, fingers tangling in his hair as the kiss deepened, raw and urgent. The world outside ceased to exist—there was only this, this fiery connection burning between us.Travis’s hands roamed with a boldness that made my skin ignite, tracing every curve, every sensitive spot he’d memorized in whispered promises. My breath hitched as his lips trailed down my jawline, nibbling softly before sucking a tender mark on my neck.I arched into him, aching for more, craving the closeness that only he could give. His hands slid beneath my shirt, fingers exploring the soft skin of my back, pulling me tighter against him. The thrill of his touch sent a delicious shiver through my body.“Are you sure?” His voice was low, a growl of need and care mingled together.“Yes,” I whispered, voice trembling with desire.Clothes fell away in a heated blur—his hands im

Chapter 32: Maybe This Is Real

Chapter 32: Maybe This Is RealI knew I should hurry and pick something before Travis came back, but every outfit looked so good. Finally, I chose two dresses to send to his assistant—just to keep my options open.The assistant also sent pictures of flats, since Travis insisted I wear something more practical. I selected two pairs to match the dresses, wondering if Travis would like my choices.Less than twenty minutes later, I heard two soft knocks on the clinic door. The nurse was still nowhere to be seen, and I wondered if she’d gone somewhere or just forgotten about me. Maybe she was watching from afar, or maybe she had no idea I was still here.“Come in,” I called.The door clicked, and a man stepped inside.“Who are you?” I asked, surprised.“This is the clinic, right?” I added, looking him over. He wore a suit and tie, looking like someone from an office, not medical staff.“Uh, yes, ma’am. Mr. Forger sent me,” he said, raising the four Chanel shopping bags he carried.I stood

Chapter 33: Let Them Talk

Chapter 33: Let Them TalkHe sighed, running a hand through his hair. “I want to believe that. I want to believe we can be normal—whatever that means. But people talk, and it’s never just about us.”I reached out, brushing a stray lock of hair from his forehead. “Let them talk.”“But what if it gets messy? What if it hurts you?” His eyes searched mine.I took a deep breath. “Sometimes, the things worth fighting for are the ones that hurt the most.”A slow smile spread across his face. “You’re braver than I am.”For the first time, the walls between us crumbled just a little.That night, I lay awake thinking about what he’d said. About family drama, expectations, and the pressure that weighed on him like a storm cloud. I realized this wasn’t just a simple crush or a casual fling. Travis was fighting battles I couldn’t see, and somehow, he was inviting me to be part of that fight.I wanted to be that person. The one who stood by him, even when it got hard.The next morning, I found a no

Chapter 34: In the Shadow of the Forger Name

Chapter 34: In the Shadow of the Forger NameStop now, or you’ll regret it.I felt the walls closing in.But with every threat, every whisper of danger, my resolve only hardened.Because some secrets were meant to be faced—not run from.And some bonds were worth fighting for, no matter the cost.The evening air was heavy with humidity as I sat alone in my dorm room, the faint glow of the city lights filtering through the window. My phone lay cold in my palm, the unknown number still blinking on the screen. I stared at it for what felt like an eternity, trying to summon the courage to answer, even though part of me already feared what the call might bring.When the voice finally came through, it was colder than the night outside—harsh and clipped.“Kourtney. If you value your safety, you’ll stop seeing Travis.”The words echoed in my mind, twisting into a knot of fear and confusion. Who was this? What did they want? And why me?I gripped the phone tighter, my fingers trembling. “Who is

Chapter 35: Between Past and Promise

Chapter 35: Between Past and PromiseBut then Kourtney.She was a bright light in the darkness, a reminder of everything I wanted to fight for. But bringing her into this world was a risk—a risk I hadn’t been ready to take.Now, with the warnings she’s received, it’s clear the past is catching up to us. Those who want to see the Forger name fall don’t care who they hurt.I ran a hand through my hair, frustration and guilt gnawing at me.I should have told her everything sooner. But I was scared—scared that the truth would push her away, that she’d see me not as the person she believed in, but as the son of a broken legacy.I picked up my phone and stared at her name.“Kourtney.”She’s stronger than I give her credit for. And if we’re going to get through this, we have to face it together.The thought steadied me.I’m not just fighting for my family or my business anymore—I’m fighting for her.For us.And I won’t let the past destroy what we’re building.Because this time, I’m not alon

Chapter 36: Between Aya and Us

Chapter 36: Between Aya and Us“It’s Architect Reyes, ma’am,” he said, with a nod.Architect Reyes? The name didn’t ring a bell, but something told me this was Aya. I didn’t know Aya’s last name, but it sounded familiar.My curiosity mixed with a hint of jealousy. I hurried toward the office building, determination pushing me forward.As I approached Travis’s door, I caught the unmistakable sound of Aya’s voice. Her tone was sharp and annoyingly sweet at the same time.“I didn’t have anything to do at the other site, so I visited you here when I heard you were doing rounds alone. Doing rounds alone is so boring.”How did Travis tolerate listening to her? Or worse, did he actually enjoy her company?I raised my hand to knock, but then Aya’s voice stopped me cold.“Is engineer’s little daughter with you?” The words stung more than I expected.Little daughter? Seriously?My hand froze mid-air, lowering slowly, irritation flaring up inside me. Without hesitation, I pushed the door open an

Chapter 38: The Secret Day

Chapter 38: The Secret DayStill, as night settled in, sleep didn’t come easily. My thoughts kept drifting back to tomorrow—Travis, the mystery plan, the thrill of spending the day with him. I was excited and nervous, but the anticipation made it hard to quiet my mind. Finally, I managed to drift off, knowing my alarms would be ready to jolt me awake early.When the first alarm blared, I jumped out of bed, heart pounding. I hurried through my bathroom routine and was dressed and downstairs by five AM, way earlier than I expected.The kitchen smelled warm and comforting. Nami was already there, sipping coffee, chatting quietly with the other helpers, Manong Sergio and Manang Hazel. They smiled when they saw me enter.“Good morning!” Nami greeted, her eyes twinkling.“Good morning, Kourt!” Manang Hazel chimed in.I smiled and took a seat on one of the high chairs at the kitchen counter. Nami quickly brought me a cup of hot chocolate, steam curling from the mug, and one of the helpers se

Chapter 39: Roots of Hope

Chapter 39: Roots of Hope“When I was younger,” he continued, “my life wasn’t… easy. My parents divorced when I was still a kid. It was messy, painful. I bounced between their homes, never really feeling like I belonged anywhere.”His eyes darkened with the memory, but he didn’t look away.“I worked hard, not just to prove something to everyone else, but to prove to myself that I could make it on my own. That I was more than my past.”I squeezed his hand gently, sensing how much it hurt to revisit that time.“This vineyard,” he said, a faint smile touching his lips, “was a surprise discovery during one of my rare breaks. I stumbled on it completely by accident. There was something about the quiet, the way the vines grew so strong and steady, even after bad weather, that gave me hope.”He paused, breathing in the cool air, as if drawing strength from it.“I guess I’ve always needed a place like this. Somewhere I could go to remind myself that no matter what’s happened, I’m still growin
