Chapter 1

After I turned in the application, the final bell rang.Ms. Larry glanced at me a few times before finally speaking."You and Mr. Bowyer are getting married next month. Two days ago, you were still working on the invitations. So why..."She didn't finish the question, but I knew what she meant.The shortest teacher exchange assignment lasted three years.No newlyweds would willingly spend that long apart.Besides, everyone at school knew I'd spent four years chasing Kelvin Bowyer, then another three years dating him before we finally got this close to marriage.How could I possibly leave him?But distance only hurts when both people care.And I'd just realized the man who promised to marry me might not love me as much as I'd always thought.I picked at the dried blood under my nails. It got there when I shoved in layers of toilet paper earlier."Things just didn't work out. Ms. Larry, can you do me a favor? Please don't tell anyone about my application."She frowned, sympat

"Are you getting in or just standing there?"I snapped out of it.The bloodstain on my pants was huge, and I didn't want to mess up some stranger's car, so I opened his passenger door.Kelvin glanced at me."Wait."He handed me a black plastic bag.I took it, confused."You knew your period was coming and still didn't bring a pad. Zoey, you're twenty-eight. Can you at least take care of yourself?"You spent the whole day walking around school with blood all over your pants. Students kept asking me if you had some serious illness. It was embarrassing."Embarrassing?The metallic smell of blood seemed to hit me all over again.I had remembered to bring pads.But Kelvin's note made me stop.I thought he'd finally learned to keep me in mind.Turns out, the person he cared about was someone else.I opened the bag.Inside was a pink pack of pads covered in dust. Some random brand from a corner store, obviously."If you really didn't have one, you could've borrowed one. Inste

"It's getting late. Is it even safe for you to ride home alone? Whatever. Guess I'm the unlucky one. I'll just get the car detailed tomorrow."There it was again.A little kindness wrapped around a knife.I gripped the seatbelt across my chest, my throat tight.Instead of answering, I pulled out my phone and messaged the studio we'd booked for our wedding photos.[Hi, I'd like to cancel the wedding shoot scheduled for next week. What do I need to do?]The studio owner's chat kept flashing [typing...]Then nothing.[typing...]Nothing again.After more than a dozen starts and stops, a message finally came through.[Ms. Zane, the wedding package was changed to a couple's birthday shoot three days ago. Your fiancé also asked us to move the session up. The edited photos will be ready tonight. Didn't he tell you?]My finger hovered over the screen.A few seconds later, I realized it was shaking.Badly.I had to grab my wrist with my other hand to keep from dropping my phone.

Because the wedding was so close, I'd even paid extra to rush the edits.But the wedding shoot I'd spent months planning had been handed to someone else behind my back.The man who always said he hated taking pictures had patiently gone through five different sets with Paige.For a second, I couldn't tell if he actually hated photos—or just hated taking them with me.The car rolled into the underground garage.I opened Paige's social media.Sure enough, she'd posted another batch of photos, carefully blurring Kelvin's face.[Ta-da! The best early birthday gift this year is definitely these gorgeous photos. Thanks to a certain someone!]Outside the car, Kelvin pulled out his phone.A second later, his like appeared under her post.I stared at that tiny red heart and laughed.He had never liked a single one of my posts without me asking.When I didn't move, Kelvin knocked on the window."We're home. Why are you still sitting there?"I looked at him through the glass. "Sin

Missed calls filled my screen.Every single one was from Kelvin.Dozens of messages came with them, starting as impatient demands before spiraling into panic and desperate begging.I skimmed the previews without opening any of them.Then I blocked his number.His messaging apps, his social media—every way he could reach me.Blocked.Deleted.Mr. Carter, the program coordinator, was already waiting at arrivals."Ms. Zane, you must be exhausted. Let's get you settled first. The program officially starts tomorrow."I took my things, thanked him, and followed the group to housing.The air here smelled different.As it brushed my face, the tension I'd carried all day finally loosened.The school apartment was clean and neat. Through the window, greenery stretched into the distance.After setting down my suitcase, I unpacked my pads and painkillers first.They were the only things that made me feel safe.I had barely finished unpacking when my phone rang.Unknown number.Af

Kelvin met my eyes and finally backed off.His eyes reddened. "Zoey, I'm not giving up on you. I'll wait as long as it takes."I didn't answer.I turned and followed Mr. Carter into the school.Kelvin's stare stayed on my back, heavy as chains.But from this moment on, I knew he'd never hold me down again.***Kelvin didn't fly back to Carmoria. He rented a place nearby.Every day, he waited outside Alderwood Institute. No drama, no big scene—just enough to keep people talking.I didn't care. I buried myself in the program, learning new teaching methods from local educators and swapping stories with other teachers. My days were packed, and honestly, it felt good.Then one day, I stumbled across one of Paige's posts.She'd uploaded a photo of Kelvin cooking.[Thank you, Kelvin. Even in a foreign country, I still get to enjoy food from home. Having you here makes me feel so safe.]In the photo, Kelvin stood in the kitchen wearing an apron, his eyes soft as he cooked.It was

Kelvin froze."I didn't forge anything. Paige gave it to me."Paige went pale and quickly tried to defend herself. "It wasn't me, Kelvin. I didn't forge it. I just asked around for you. I didn't know it was fake."Just like that, they started blaming each other.Watching them fall apart, I gave a cold little smile.I'd known Paige would try something, so I warned the principal ahead of time and asked him to verify Kelvin's invitation.Sure enough, she'd forged it.In the end, campus security escorted Kelvin out, and the local police opened an investigation. Paige got formally reprimanded, and her internship was revoked on the spot.Watching them leave humiliated, I finally felt a little lighter.But this was just the beginning.Everything they'd done to me? They'd pay for every bit of it.***Because of the forged invitation, Kelvin was fined by local authorities and ordered to leave the country.Paige went back too.Before she left, she posted online, complaining that Ke

Kelvin.He was dressed casually, with messy hair and tired eyes. Nothing like the confident man he used to be.He saw me too.His eyes lit up, and he rushed over."Zoey, it really is you."His voice was rough, and his face was filled with surprise and regret."I've been looking for you forever. I finally found you."I frowned and moved closer to Elon without thinking.Elon took my hand, gave me a gentle look, then turned to Kelvin."Can I help you? Zoey's my girlfriend now. You shouldn't be bothering her."Kelvin went pale.He looked at me, then at our joined hands. Pain and regret filled his eyes."Girlfriend? Zoey, you really don't want me anymore? I know I messed up. I do. Please, give me one more chance."Paige and I are done. She lied to me. She played me. I only realized now that you're the one I loved all along."I looked at his regret and felt nothing.I gently pulled my hand from Elon's and faced Kelvin."I don't love you anymore. I don't want to talk about the

"You tried to hit me? Fine. I'm not letting this go."Paige yanked out her phone."I still have photos and videos from when we were together. And I kept all the messages where you told me to forge that invitation. If I post them online, let's see how you show your face in public."Kelvin's expression instantly changed.He scrambled to his feet and lunged for her phone."How dare you? If you post those, you'll regret it!"The two of them immediately started fighting over the phone, grabbing at each other and hurling insults.It was pathetic.People all around them pulled out their phones, snapping pictures and recording videos while whispering about the whole mess.Elon and I watched from nearby.Neither of us felt sorry for them.They'd done this to themselves.They were the ones who'd wrecked their own lives.Just then, police cars pulled up.Someone had called the cops.The officers stepped in and took both Kelvin and Paige away. Apparently, they were being detained fo

On finals day, I stood onstage in a sharp work outfit, calm and confident as I presented everything I'd achieved.My demo class was lively. My methods were fresh and unique.The judges loved it. So did the audience.When they announced I'd won first place, my eyes filled with tears.More than a year of hard work had finally paid off.Elon stood below the stage, smiling up at me, his eyes full of pride and affection.After the competition, Alderwood Institute wrote me a recommendation letter for a position at a top local high school.At the same time, several elite high schools in Carmoria reached out, asking me to come home and teach.I couldn't decide.Staying abroad meant better resources and huge career opportunities.Going home meant returning to my roots and the family I loved.Elon noticed I was torn."No matter what you choose, I'm with you. If you want to go back to Carmoria, I'll go with you. If you want to stay here, I'll stay too."His sincerity warmed my heart.
