Married My Ex's Uncle In My Second Time Chapter 0122
At some point, I must have drifted off.I wake up to the scent of soap and something warm, clean, and soft on my skin. I'm not sore, not cold, not in the uncomfortable mess I remember being in last. Instead, I’m in one of Alaric’s shirts, oversized and smelling faintly of him. My hair’s a little damp, skin moisturized.He cleaned me up?My heart does a weird little twist in my chest.Before I can linger in the softness of that thought, I hear it—a flurry of movement beyond the door. Hurried footsteps. Voices, and some soft clicking.I shuffle out into the living area, tugging the shirt down instinctively. The moment I step into the livivng area, the door opens and Alaric enters.His face is a storm and tight with controlled rage.“What’s going on?” I ask carefully, eyeing the way his shoulders are squared, fists clenched at his sides.He doesn’t answer right away. Just stares at me with a look that makes my skin prickle.Then, voice low and deadly calm, he says, “What exactly did Lisa

“That was wonderful, Miss Anna,” someone says as I step down from the podium, my heart still thrumming like a drumline after a final beat.I offer a composed smile, even though my palms are damp from nerves. My fingers tighten instinctively around the edge of my note cards—mostly untouched during the presentation, but clutched now like a security blanket. The room around me hums with quiet approval—warm smiles, murmured compliments, impressed nods exchanged between executives like secret handshakes. The air feels electric, like I just passed through a lightning storm and somehow came out glowing.Almost everyone is smiling.Almost.My gaze shifts and lands on Lisa’s superior—her direct manager and probably her biggest supporter until, well… now.His expression is nothing short of thunderous. Lips pressed into a line so thin it might disappear altogether, jaw clenched like he’s biting down on glass. He doesn’t clap. Doesn’t smile. Doesn’t blink. His eyes stay fixed on me with a look th

As soon as I step through the front door of the house, still buzzing from the adrenaline of the pitch and the whirlwind of reactions, I barely pause to take off my shoes before heading straight for the kitchen.“Mum?” I call out, already hearing the familiar clatter of pots and the hum of the radio playing softly in the background.She looks up from where she’s chopping vegetables, eyes lighting up the moment she sees me. “Anna! You’re home early.” Then, noting the expression on my face, she sets the knife down and wipes her hands on a towel. “Wait… did something happen? Is everything alright?”I grin and nod, unable to keep it in another second. “More than alright. It went amazing. The board loved the proposal. One of them literally said it’s ‘looking very positive.’”My mum lets out a delighted gasp. “Oh, sweetheart!” She throws her arms around me in a tight hug, practically squeezing the air out of me. “I knew you’d blow them away. You’ve been working so hard—this is incredible.”I

The next evening, I step into the house, expecting the usual scent of dinner and the sound of Mum humming along to the radio. But instead, the air feels heavy and quietquietVoices drift from the living room, low and solemn. As I round the corner, I stop short.Mr. and Mrs. Ashford are sitting on the couch, deep in conversation with my parents. My mum looks like she’s been crying, her eyes a little red and puffy, and Dad’s hands are clasped tightly in his lap. Mr. Ashford’s face is drawn and serious, while Mrs. Ashford’s lips are trembling as if she’s holding back something she’s dying to say.When they see me, Mrs. Ashford immediately rises to her feet.“Anna,” she says, voice soft and wobbly, and the next second she’s across the room, wrapping her arms around me in a tight embrace. Her perfume is familiar, floral, comforting, and yet the hug is filled with something I can’t name. A desperation that makes my stomach twist.I freeze. “Is… is everything okay?”My voice comes out unsure

“I just… need to clear my head,” I tell Mum as I reach for my coat. My voice is too even, too controlled, and that alone worries her.She places a gentle hand on my arm. “Anna, be careful, please.”I nod, not trusting myself to speak again. I head to the back door, quietly slipping my keys into my pocket. I can’t go through the living room. I can’t face Mr. and Mrs. Ashford—not right now. Are they really my parents? Were they always? My mind recoils at the thought, twisting it around until I don’t know how to feel, only that I feel too much.The air outside is cool against my skin. It should help. It doesn’t.I get in the car and drive.I don’t even remember choosing a direction. My hands move on instinct while my thoughts spiral deeper, tangling in memories I thought I had filed away and sealed shut. My foot presses the gas harder than necessary. At some point, familiar streets start showing up through my windshield, and when I finally pull to a stop, I realize where I am.Alaric’s h

After I’ve washed my face and curled up again beside Alaric on his stupidly comfortable couch, I shoot my mum a text with shaking fingers.Me: Hey, I’m staying at Alaric’s tonight. I just need a bit of time. I’ll come back tomorrow.The reply comes almost immediately.Mum: Okay, sweetheart. Take all the time you need. The Ashfords are staying over too—if that’s okay with you?I stare at the message for a second before typing.Me: That’s okay. Tell them goodnight for me.Mum: We love you. Sleep well.I exhale a breath I didn’t realize I was holding and tuck my phone away. Alaric shifts beside me, his arm still around my shoulders like he’s trying to hold the pieces of me together.“Will you stay with me?” I ask quietly, my voice barely more than a whisper.He looks down at me like it’s the easiest question in the world. “Always.”I don’t say anything after that, just press my face into his chest and let his heartbeat lull me into something that feels like peace. Right before I drift of

Mr. and Mrs. Ashford, my biological parents, step forward. I see the uncertainty in their eyes, like they’re holding their breath. I swallow and look at them, still overwhelmed, still unsure."I know this is a lot," Mrs. Ashford begins gently. "And we’re not trying to take anything from you. We’re just… so grateful to have found you again. We lost you once. We don’t want to lose you again."Mr. Ashford clears his throat, his voice gruff but steady. "We never stopped looking. When the adoption records were sealed and the orphanage shut down… we thought—"He doesn’t finish, but I see it in his eyes. They thought I was gone. And somehow, through a mess of fate and timing, I still ended up in their lives."You don’t have to decide anything now," Mrs. Ashford says, stepping closer. "But if you’re okay with it, we’d like to be part of your life again. And… we’d like you to call us Mum and Dad. If you’re ready. When you’re ready."The words settle over me like a warm, heavy blanket. Familiar

The office was quiet, the usual morning hum of keyboards and clinking mugs a strangely comforting background to the storm of thoughts in her head. She stared at her screen, a spreadsheet open but untouched, and found her eyes drifting to the photo frame next to her monitor. It was a picture of her and Brian at her last birthday, smiling in the kitchen with a cake that had sunk in the middle.They’d laughed so hard that night. That used to be her whole world—her job, Brian, the quiet comfort of routine.Brian had missed the whole thing as he was away on a business trip in Singapore, but the moment he found out, he called her. She’d barely gotten two words in before he started gushing, saying he always knew she was special, that it all somehow made sense now. His voice cracked when he told her how proud he was, how happy he was that she’d found where she belonged. “You’ve always had a big family, Anna,” he said gently. “We were just waiting for the rest of them to find you.”And then th

“Strip,” he says, leaning back on the bed, his elbows propped behind him, watching me with that intense gaze that always makes my knees a little weak.“Alright,” I whisper, my voice a little shaky. I'm nervous—but I signed up for this. And I’m going to see it through.Taking a slow breath, I let my fingers trail up my back to unclasp my bra. As sexily as I can manage, I slide it off and bunch it in my hand before tossing it at him. He catches it without blinking, his eyes never leaving mine.“Everything,” he says, his voice thick with desire.My eyes flick down to the undeniable bulge in his trousers. The sight gives me a flicker of confidence. I hook my thumbs into the waistband of my panties and slide them down, stepping out of them slowly. Then, with a mischievous smirk I didn’t know I had in me, I throw those at him too.This time, he catches them and brings them to his face, breathing in deeply like I’m something rare and intoxicating. The raw hunger in his eyes makes my breath h
