I stared at Adrian. He looked like a man who had just watched his entire world collapse. Ethan was his brother. My son. The two facts shouldn’t have belonged in the same sentence. Yet somehow, they did. Tell me where he went. Adrian looked away. Elena, I— No. I stepped closer. No more protecting me from the truth. No more deciding what I can handle. His jaw tightened. I don’t know where Ethan is. But you know what happened to him. Silence settled. That was enough. My chest burned. You knew. I remembered the photograph. Adrian beside me in that hospital room. The baby in my arms. The date written beneath the image. Five years ago. Before my memories disappeared. Before another woman wore my face. Before I became a stranger in my own life. Why were you in that hospital? Adrian closed his eyes. Because you called me. My heart stopped. I called you? Yes. What did I say? His eyes met mine. You told me someone was going to take our child. Our child. The words hit me harder than they sh

I couldn’t stop staring at Adrian. My children were missing. A man wearing his brother’s face had threatened us. And now I had learned that five years ago, Adrian had been inside the hospital when my life fell apart. Yet he had never told me.Why? He looked at me as though he knew exactly what I was thinking. Because I didn’t remember. That’s not an answer. It is when the truth could have killed you. I stepped closer. You don’t get to decide what truths I deserve anymore. His eyes hardened. And you don’t get to walk into danger just because you’re angry with me. I’m not angry. I laughed bitterly. I’m terrified. That finally silenced him. I am terrified because every person I trusted seems to have known something about my life except me. Adrian’s expression softened. Elena… Don’t call me that like you still know me. His jaw tightened. I know you better than anyone. Then why didn’t you know I was in danger? Because I thought I was the danger. I froze. He looked away. Five years a

He remembers everything about us now, Elena. I read the sentence again. Over and over. My fingers tightened around the phone. Everything about us? Adrian looked at me. What does it say? I couldn’t answer. He reached for the phone, but I pulled it away. Why are you afraid of me? His expression changed. I’m not. Then prove it. He stepped closer. How? His gaze locked unto mine Tell me what happened five years ago. I knew you would ask eventually. My heart pounded. Then tell me. Adrian looked at the photographs covering the wall. I remember the night you disappeared. My breath caught. You said you didn’t. I said I didn’t remember everything. That’s not the same thing. He rubbed his jaw. That night, I received a call from you. You told me to come to the old chapel. Why? You said you had discovered who was behind the threats. Who? You never said. I went there. And? You weren’t alone. My stomach twisted. Who was with me? A man. The same man in the photograph? Adrian stared at me

I stared at the note until the words blurred. I gave him to save Adrian.My own handwriting. My own name on the file. But the sentence felt like it belonged to another woman. What did I do? I whispered. Adrian stood beside me, silent. He looked as shaken as I felt. Then tell me the truth. His gaze met my eyes. I don’t know the whole truth. I laughed without humor. Nobody ever knows the whole truth. Elena— No. I pointed at the file. This says I gave Ethan away. It says you believed you had no choice.I looked at the second sentence. You were never given a choice. Who wrote that? Adrian picked up the page. The ink is different. I know.His eyes moved across the handwriting. Then something caught his attention. Look. He pointed to the bottom corner. A tiny symbol had been stamped there. A black horse surrounding a dot. I had seen it before. My stomach dropped. Where? The blue room. Adrian looked at me. You remember it? I do but, not clearly. A flash of another memory came.The hidde

Adrian’s last words followed me upstairs. You told me, If I save Ethan, they will kill you. I couldn’t breathe properly. Not because of Ethan. It was because of the way Adrian had said it.Like he had been carrying those words alone for five years. We reached the study, and I closed the door behind us. What happened after I said that? Adrian rubbed a hand over his face. I don’t know.That answer wasn’t enough anymore. Then remember. He looked at me. I’m trying. No. I stepped closer. Try harder. Something flickered across his face. Anger, pain. Then something softer.You think I haven’t tried? I went silent.For five years, he had searched for me. For five years, I had believed he wanted me dead. We were both victims of the same lie. But someone had built that lie carefully. Someone had known exactly where to hurt us.Adrian pulled out his phone. There was one thing I never understood about that night. What? The call.You said you called me. I did. But your number wasn’t on my phone a
