Elena stared at the photograph until her vision blurred.Her mother was tied to a chair.Victor stood behind her.And beside him was the oldest boy.The boy who had been hidden from every record.The boy whose eyes looked exactly like hers.HE KNOWS EVERYTHING, MOTHER.The message remained on the screen.Damien took the phone from her."Where did this come from?""I don't know."Marcus stepped closer."Can you trace it?""I'm trying."Elena barely heard them.Her attention remained fixed on the boy."He's looking at me."Damien glanced at the photograph."He knows you.""No."Elena shook her head."Not like that."She touched the screen."I know him."Damien looked at her."You've never seen him.""I have."A memory surfaced.A little boy sitting beneath a staircase.She was holding his hand.He was crying.She had whispered:I'll come back for you.Then the memory disappeared.Elena gasped.Damien caught her shoulders."What did you see?""My son."His eyes widened."Which one?""I d

Elena couldn't move.The little boy stood only a few feet away.He was small, pale, and frighteningly familiar.His dark hair fell across his forehead. His eyes were fixed on hers with a sadness no child his age should have carried."Why did you leave me?"Elena's heart cracked."I didn't."The boy shook his head."You did."Victor stood behind him, watching.Elena ignored him.She slowly lowered herself to her knees."What is your name?"The boy stared at her."You used to call me Noah."Elena's breath caught."Noah?"She looked toward the sealed doors.The child she had believed was Noah had disappeared.The boys they had found had been called Lucas.Daniel.Alexander.Ethan.Five children.And now this boy stood before her.Her mind struggled to keep up."Are you Noah?"The boy nodded."I waited for you."Elena's eyes filled with tears."I'm sorry.""You said you'd come back.""I know.""You promised.""I know."The boy stepped closer."You forgot me."Elena reached toward him."I

Elena stared at the photograph.Damien stood beside a hospital bed.A newborn girl rested in his arms.The image was dated seven years ago.Beneath it were four words.DAMIEN KNEW SHE SURVIVED.Elena slowly turned.Damien was standing behind her.His face had gone pale."Is it true?"He didn't answer.Her heart sank."Damien."He looked at the photograph."I didn't know she survived.""But you knew about her."His silence was enough.Elena took a step back."You lied to me.""I was trying to protect you.""Everyone keeps saying that."Her voice shook."Victor. My mother. Adrian. You."Damien stepped toward her."I didn't know where she was.""But you knew she existed.""Yes.""Why didn't you tell me?""Because you weren't ready."Elena laughed bitterly."Not ready?"She pointed at the photograph."She's my daughter.""I know.""You watched me grieve for a child you knew might still be alive.""I didn't know she was alive.""You just said—""I knew there was a possibility."The room fe

Elena froze.Noah stood at the end of the corridor.His small hand was wrapped around something dangerous.His face was expressionless.Too expressionless for a child."Mommy."Elena's heart broke.She slowly raised her hands."Noah, come to me."Victor stepped toward him."Stay where you are."Noah looked at Victor.Then at Elena."Grandpa said you were going to hurt him."Elena shook her head."I would never hurt anyone."Noah's eyes filled with tears."He said you forgot me because you didn't love me."Elena took another careful step."That's not true.""Then why did you leave?""I didn't leave you.""You did.""Noah, look at me."He did."You are my son."His lips trembled."Then why don't you remember me?"Elena's voice broke."Because someone made me forget."Noah looked toward Victor."Grandpa?""Yes."Victor's expression hardened."Give me that."Noah didn't move.Elena realized something.Noah wasn't afraid of Victor.He was afraid of himself.She lowered her voice."You don'

Elena couldn't breathe.The man standing across the vault looked nothing like the brother she had imagined.He was older than her by perhaps fifteen years. A thin scar disappeared beneath his collar. His dark hair was streaked with gray, and his eyes held the same unusual shade of green as their mother's.Her mother made a broken sound."Gabriel."The man's smile faded."You remember me."Her mother gripped the edge of the desk."I thought you were dead.""That's what Father wanted everyone to believe."Elena stared at him."My brother?"Gabriel looked at her."Your older brother."She shook her head."I don't remember you.""I know."There was no anger in his voice.Somehow, that made it worse."Why?" Elena asked.Gabriel glanced toward the files."Because Father made sure you wouldn't."Damien stepped in front of Elena."Stay away from her."Gabriel's eyes shifted to him."You're Damien.""Yes.""I've heard a lot about you.""From whom?""Your father."Damien stiffened."My father?"
