Alexander"You suffered because of me," I continued. "Because of my choices, my failures, my complete inability to see what was right in front of me. I can't change that. But I can promise you I won't make you suffer again." "Promises are easy." "Then let me prove it with actions. Let me show you I'm serious about this. About us." "Us," she repeated, testing the word. "There's no us, Alexander. There's you, engaged to Katherine. And there's me, raising your son alone in Connecticut. Those are two separate things." "They don't have to be." "Yes, they do. Because I can't trust you. Not yet. Maybe not ever. You say you'll end things with Katherine, but you've been engaged for years without setting a date. How do I know you'll actually follow through? How do I know this isn't just guilt talking?" The question was fair. More than fair. "I'll sort it out in a few days," I said. "I'll fly back to New York, sit down with Katherine, and end this engagement properly. No dragging it out,

Alexander"But I can't change the past," I continued. "All I can do is try to make things right moving forward. And that starts with knowing my son." "Your son," she repeated, her voice softening. "You keep saying that. Like it makes everything simple." "Doesn't it?" "No." She shook her head. "Biology doesn't automatically make you a father. Being there does. Showing up does. And you haven't done that." "Because I didn't know he existed." "And now you do." Madison's fingers drummed against the table. "So what's your plan? Swoop in, play dad for a few weeks, then disappear back to New York when the novelty wears off?" "That's not what I want." "Then what do you want?" I opened my mouth, then closed it. What did I want? The question Anthony had asked me last night echoed in my head. "I want to be part of his life," I said finally. "Really, part of it. Not just weekend visits or occasional phone calls. I want to know him. Watch him grow up. Be there for school plays and soccer g

AlexanderI arrived ten minutes early. The bistro was charming in that understated way that meant expensive without being flashy. White tablecloths, fresh flowers, and large windows letting in natural light. The hostess greeted me with a professional smile. "Good afternoon. Do you have a reservation?" "Alexander Knight. Table for two at noon." "Right this way." She led me to a corner table with a view of the street. I settled into my chair, declining the wine list but accepting water. The door chimed. Madison walked in, and every thought in my head scattered. She wore a cream-colored dress that hit just above her knees, simple but elegant. Her hair was down, falling in soft waves past her shoulders. Minimal makeup, just enough to highlight her eyes. She looked exactly like the Madison I remembered and nothing like her at all. She spotted me, and something flickered across her face before she smoothed it into neutrality. I stood as she approached. "Hi." Her voice was quiet.

Alexander"If you were in my situation," I said, swirling the amber liquid in my glass, "who would you choose? I'm asking generally." "That's a tricky decision, man." "That's not an answer." "Because it's not a simple question." He took a sip of his bourbon. "Look, initially, I never liked Katherine. Her behavior, her attitude, the way she treated people like chess pieces. But after she left you the first time and went to London, she changed. Got better. More genuine. When she came back, I actually liked her." He paused. "Not in a personal way, you understand. But I respected her business mind. She's brilliant at what she does." I waited, knowing there was more. "But Madison?" Anthony's expression softened. "I liked her from the beginning. Still do. She's different. Simple in the best way. No games, no manipulation, just genuine kindness and competence wrapped in a package that didn't need designer labels to be impressive." I set down my whiskey, studying him across the table. "

Alexander"You know what's interesting?" Anthony said, pulling me from my thoughts. I looked up from my whiskey. "What?" "At first, Katherine left you, and you said nothing. Didn't chase her. Didn't fight for her. Just let her walk away like it meant nothing. Then she came back, and you got engaged, and that was that. No drama, no grand gestures, just a business arrangement disguised as a relationship." I said nothing, just turned my glass in slow circles on the table. "And in the same way Madison left," Anthony continued. "Same pattern. She walked out of Knight Industries, disappeared to Connecticut, and you said nothing. Didn't call, didn't text, didn't try to find her. Just let her go like she was interchangeable with any other employee." "Your point?" "My point is you have a pattern of letting people walk away without fighting for them." He paused, taking a sip. "Which raises an interesting question. What do you actually want, Alex? Do you want to marry Katherine? From my pe

AlexanderI drove away from Madison's café, my hands gripping the wheel like it might escape if I loosened my hold. The Aston Martin purred beneath me, all that expensive engineering wasted on a man whose thoughts kept circling back to a four-year-old boy with my eyes. That hug. Christ, that hug. The kid had melted into me like I was someone safe. Someone trustworthy. Someone who deserved that kind of easy affection. I didn't deserve it. The GPS guided me back toward the hotel, but I barely registered the turns. My mind was stuck in that café, watching Ethan bounce around with the kind of energy that suggested sugar and pure joy in equal measure. "King Alexander," he'd called me. A laugh escaped before I could stop it. Bitter and sharp. King Alexander. If only the kid knew how spectacularly his "king" had fucked up. *** I leaned back in the leather booth, swirling whiskey in my glass. The bar was upscale without being pretentious, all dark wood and brass fixtures. Quiet enoug
