The moment I stepped inside my room, everything felt normal. But as I took a few steps toward my bed, my heart nearly jumped out of my chest.

I froze. My breath caught in my throat.

Then, I screamed.

My bed was covered in tiny, torn-up pieces of paper. My hands trembled as I stepped closer, and that’s when I realized what it was—my ultrasound photo. The picture of my baby. The one the doctor had given me. It had been ripped into shreds and scattered all over my bed like confetti.

But that wasn’t the worst part.

Right in the middle of the bed, lying in a pool of dark, sticky blood, was a dead animal. My stomach twisted in horror as I took in the sight. It was a rabbit. Its small body had been completely ripped open, its insides spilling out onto my blankets. The metallic scent of blood filled my nose, making me gag.

A sharp, choked sob escaped my lips as I staggered backward, my entire body trembling. My hands clutched my stomach instinctively, as if I could somehow shield my baby from

    I clung to Kai, my fingers digging into his shirt as I buried my face against him, inhaling his scent. It should have comforted me, but nothing could erase what I had just seen.Behind us, Rhys walked with heavy, deliberate steps, his energy radiating barely contained rage."I’ll handle the cleanup," Rhys muttered. "And I’ll tighten security."Kai didn’t answer immediately. He kept walking, his jaw tight, his grip on me firm but gentle.When we reached his bedroom, he pushed the door open with one hand and stepped inside. The moment we were in, he kicked the door shut behind him. He didn’t set me down right away. Instead, he walked straight to the bed and sat down, keeping me cradled in his lap.I curled into him instinctively, my entire body still trembling."Take a deep breath," he murmured, his voice softer now. "Slow and steady, Lily. I’ve got you."I tried, I really did, but the panic wouldn’t let go of me

    Kai stood up from the bed and told me he would be right back. I nodded, watching as he left the room and closed the door behind him. Now that I was alone, I took a deep breath and looked around. This was only the second time I had been in his room, and I hadn’t really paid attention to it before. It was spacious, with dark wooden furniture and large windows covered with heavy curtains. The bed was massive, covered in dark sheets, and smelled just like him—strong, warm, and comforting. I slowly stood up and wandered around the room, my eyes landing on the door to his walk-in closet. Curiosity got the best of me, and before I could stop myself, I walked over and pushed it open. The moment I stepped inside, Kai’s scent completely surrounded me. It was even stronger here—his cologne mixed with something uniquely him. I closed my eyes for a second, just breathing it in, feeling comforted in a way I couldn’t explain. I ran my fingers over the neatly hung clothes, feeling the soft fabric

    As I continued eating, Kai stayed beside me, his presence warm and steady. It felt nice, comforting even, to have him here, watching over me, making sure I was eating.I was just about to take another bite when he suddenly reached for a slice of apple from my plate. I glanced at him, confused, but before I could ask, he lifted the piece to my lips.My heart skipped a beat.I blinked at him, feeling my face heat up. It was such a small gesture, yet it felt incredibly intimate.Slowly, I leaned forward and took a bite, my lips brushing against his fingers. The apple was sweet and juicy, but I barely noticed the taste because my entire focus was on Kai.Then, without thinking, I did something that made time stop.I licked the juice off his finger.The second I did it, I heard his sharp intake of breath.I froze.Kai's whole body stiffened beside me, his muscles tensing as if he had been shocked. His gaze darkened, his silver eyes locking onto my lips with an intensity that made my stomac

    As soon as I opened the door, Meredith stood there, her dark eyes filled with concern. The moment she saw me, she didn't hesitate—she pulled me into a tight hug, holding me close like she had been waiting for this moment.“I heard what happened,” she murmured, her voice laced with worry. “Rhys told me about your room. Are you okay?”I let out a slow breath, feeling some of the tension in my body ease at the comfort of her embrace. “Yeah… I’m fine.”Meredith pulled back slightly, scanning my face as if trying to find any cracks in my words. Her lips pressed into a thin line, and she gave me a knowing look like she didn’t quite believe me. “Lily…”I forced a small smile, trying to reassure her. “Really, Mer. I’m okay now.”She sighed, shaking her head. “I’m so sorry I didn’t come sooner. I feel terrible for not being here when you needed me.”I reached for her hand, squeezing it gently. “Mer, stop. You don’t have to apologize. You’ve been busy. I get it.”She looked at me for a moment b

    My jaw dropped. “What? No!”She grinned. “Oh, come on! It’s just a little flirting. You can handle it.”I groaned, already regretting bringing up dares in the first place. “You’re evil.”She laughed. “I know. But you love me anyway.”I rolled my eyes, but I couldn't help smiling. “Fine. But if this goes horribly wrong, I’m blaming you.”Meredith grinned like she had just won the lottery. “Deal.”I sighed, leaning back against the pillows. “So, how exactly do you plan to ask Rhys out?”She tapped her chin, pretending to think hard. “Hmm. Maybe I should just walk up to him and say, ‘Hey, wanna go on a date with me?’”I snorted. “That sounds like something you would do.”She laughed. “Okay, fine. I’ll try to be smooth. Maybe invite him to dinner or something casual.”I nodded. “That’s a good idea. And wear that red dress you have—it makes you look amazing.”Meredith grinned. “Noted. Now, back to your dare.”I groaned. “Do I have to?”“Yes,” she said, crossing her arms. “You have to flirt

    I pulled it over my head, letting it swallow me completely. It was huge, reaching mid-thigh, and the sleeves were so long they covered most of my hands. I hugged myself, enjoying the warmth of the fabric before walking back into the bedroom.Since I didn’t really have anything to do, I climbed into Kai’s bed and curled up under the covers. The bed was ridiculously comfortable, and his scent surrounded me even more here. I smiled a little to myself, feeling oddly safe.Time passed, and I found myself just lounging around, scrolling through my new phone. I had spent hours playing random games, checking social media, and watching videos, but eventually, boredom crept in. That’s when I remembered Meredith’s dare.I hesitated, staring at my phone screen. Should I really text Kai? This was the first time I’d ever text him, and for some reason, it felt like a big deal. I didn't even know what to say.After a few moments of debating, I settled on something simple.Me: Hey.I pressed send and

    As soon as I pressed send, I let out a high-pitched squeal and immediately buried my face in my pillow, kicking my legs like a crazy person. My heart was racing so fast it felt like it might burst out of my chest. Beside me, Meredith was practically rolling on the bed with laughter, clutching her stomach as she watched me freak out.“Oh my god, why did I send that?” I groaned, my voice muffled by the pillow.“Because you like him,” Meredith teased, nudging me playfully. “And because you’re finally growing a backbone when it comes to Kai.”I peeked out from behind my pillow, my face burning. “But what if he thinks I’m being too forward?”Meredith snorted. “Lily, please. That man practically worships the ground you walk on. If anything, he’ll probably love that you’re finally flirting back.”I wasn’t so sure. My fingers itched to grab my phone and check if he had replied, but at the same time, I was terrified to see what he had to say.A minute passed. Then another. Each second felt lik

    Kai took another slow step toward me, his smirk growing wider. His dark eyes glowed with amusement, and something else that made my stomach flip."You wanted to tempt me, Lily?" His voice was low, teasing, and it sent a shiver all the way down my spine.I opened my mouth to say something—anything—but no words came out. My brain completely stopped working the second he reached the bed. He was standing right in front of me now, towering over me like he had all the control in the world.And maybe he did.Because I had lost control of mine. My stupid, raging hormones were definitely the enemy here.I just sat there, frozen, my wide eyes locked on him, unsure of what he was going to do next. My heart was hammering against my ribs, and every inch of my skin felt like it was on fire.Then, he moved even closer, so close that I had to tilt my head up to keep looking at him. But before I could, my gaze dipped lower—straight to his crotch.Oh god.Heat rushed to my cheeks as I quickly looked aw

    For a moment, I let myself just exist—no worries, no stress, no overwhelming thoughts—just the soft rustling of leaves from the potted plants by the window and the faint hum of the radio playing a soothing melody in the background. The shop was like a little haven, filled with vibrant colors and the earthy, floral scent that wrapped around me like a comforting blanket.I glanced around, my eyes drawn to the different flower arrangements that Elliot had set on the counter. Each bouquet seemed to tell a story—the elegant roses paired with delicate baby’s breath, the wild assortment of sunflowers mixed with daisies, and a more subtle blend of lavender and white lilies. I reached out to trace the petals of a daisy, my fingertip brushing the soft, velvety texture. The simple beauty of it made my heart feel lighter, even just a bit.I couldn’t help but let my mind wander, thinking of how I usually played it safe, always trying to make the right decisions. Maybe it was time to do something a

    I looked down at the lily in my hand, turning it gently between my fingers. The petals felt so soft, almost like silk, and the delicate fragrance wrapped around me, calming my frayed nerves. I couldn’t help but smile a little. It was such a small, simple thing, but it made me feel a bit lighter, almost like I could breathe easier. For the first time that day, I felt like I wasn’t drowning in my thoughts.Lost in the softness of the petals, I barely noticed when Elliot moved closer until his warm hand gently covered mine, stilling my fingers. His touch was comforting—steady and gentle. I looked up, meeting his calm, reassuring gaze.“Hey,” he said softly, his voice soothing, like a balm to my wounded heart. He gave my hand a gentle squeeze, his thumb brushing over my knuckles. “Everything’s going to be alright. I promise. You don’t have to carry it all on your own.”His words were simple, but they carried a weight that made my chest feel a little less tight. I didn’t trust myself to sp

    I jumped a little, startled, and turned around quickly. There stood Elliot, holding a single white lily in his hand, his lips curled into a warm, easygoing smile. My heartbeat quickened, but not in the anxious way it did with Kai. Instead, it was a comforting, gentle flutter, almost like a reminder that not everything was as heavy as it seemed. “Oh! I didn’t hear you come up,” I admitted, trying to hide my embarrassment. He chuckled, the sound light and pleasant. “Sorry, didn’t mean to sneak up on you,” he said, offering me the lily. His fingers brushed mine briefly, and I couldn’t help but notice how soft his touch was. “This one reminded me of you—beautiful and delicate.” My cheeks flushed, and I couldn’t help but smile as I took the flower from him. “Thank you. It’s really pretty.” Elliot’s curls were a little messy, probably from a busy morning moving flowers around. He looked effortlessly charming in a simple white top that hugged his toned frame just right, paired with s

    Pushing open the door, I was immediately greeted by the warm, fragrant scent of flowers. It was almost overwhelming at first, like stepping into a garden that had been bottled up and released all at once. The air was thick with the sweet, earthy smell of roses, the crisp freshness of lilies, and something sugary that I couldn’t quite place. It reminded me of spring mornings, where everything felt hopeful and alive.The shop itself was cozy and inviting, with sunlight streaming through the large windows, casting soft patterns on the wooden floor. Bouquets of flowers filled nearly every available space, arranged in tall glass vases and wrapped in brown paper tied with twine. The colors were almost too much to take in at once—bright red roses with their velvety petals, soft pastel pink peonies, sunny yellow sunflowers, and delicate white lilies. Even the shelves were decorated with smaller potted plants, succulents, and cacti, their deep green hues providing a nice contrast to the more v

    I decided to call Elliot to see if we could meet now. My fingers felt a little shaky as I pulled my phone out and dialed his number. I wasn’t sure why I was nervous—maybe because I hadn’t really made any new friends lately, and he seemed like such a nice guy. I took a deep breath as the phone rang, trying to calm myself down.After a few rings, Elliot picked up. “Hello?” His voice sounded cheerful, and I couldn’t help but feel a little relieved.“Hey, Elliot, it’s me,” I said, trying to sound upbeat. “I was just wondering if we could meet now to check out the flower designs?”“Oh, absolutely!” he replied, sounding genuinely happy to hear from me. “I’ve got the arrangements ready for you to take a look at. Are you free now?”“Yeah, I’m already in town,” I answered. “Just tell me where your flower shop is, and I’ll head over.”“Great! It’s called ‘Bloom & Bliss,’ on Maple Street. You can’t miss it—the sign’s painted bright yellow, and there’s a big display of sunflowers outside,” he exp

    Finally, he stepped aside, and I hurried past him, not daring to look back. I needed to get as far away from him as possible before I completely broke down. My chest felt tight, and my eyes stung, but I refused to cry in front of him.As I walked down the path leading away from the house, I forced myself to take deep, calming breaths. The morning air was cool against my skin, and the soft rustling of leaves overhead was almost comforting. I needed this moment of peace, away from the tension and the ache in my chest. I tried to focus on the steady rhythm of my footsteps, one after the other, moving me farther from the mansion and all the confusion that came with it.My thoughts kept drifting back to Kai, no matter how hard I tried to push them away. I couldn’t get the image of him and Zara out of my head. The way he kissed her with so much passion made my heart ache. I bit my lip to stop the tears that threatened to fall. I didn’t want to cry anymore. I was tired of feeling hurt and co

    When I got to Kai’s room, I hesitated at the door for a moment. I wasn’t sure what I was expecting—maybe to find him there, waiting to talk, or maybe still asleep. But when I pushed the door open, the room was empty. A strange mix of relief and disappointment washed over me. I let out a small sigh and stepped inside, gently closing the door behind me.The room looked just as I had left it earlier. The bed was still a bit messy, the sheets rumpled from where I had been lying down. The faint scent of Kai lingered in the air—a comforting, familiar smell that made my chest tighten. I didn’t want to think about him right now, but it was hard not to when everything in this room reminded me of him.I walked over to the window, pushing the curtains aside to let the sunlight in. The morning light spilled across the floor, brightening up the space. I glanced out at the view of the garden below, watching the breeze make the flowers sway. It was peaceful—too peaceful compared to the storm of emot

    We continued walking along the path, taking our time. The sun was climbing higher in the sky, warming the cool morning air, and the smell of pine and wildflowers filled the breeze. I couldn’t help but feel a bit lighter after talking to Mer, even though the ache in my chest was still there. Just having her by my side made things a little more bearable.The sound of birds singing softly in the trees seemed to match the rhythm of our steps. I noticed how the sunlight filtered through the branches, casting dappled patterns on the ground. Mer and I walked in comfortable silence for a while, both of us just soaking in the calm of the morning.Then my phone buzzed, startling me out of my thoughts. I pulled it out of my pocket, glancing at the screen. The name "Elliot" flashed across it, and I hesitated for a second before answering.“Hello?” I greeted, trying to keep my voice steady despite the unexpected call.“Hey, Lily! It’s Elliot,” came his cheerful, upbeat voice. I could almost pictur

    Lily’s POV But then I had seen him kissing Zara. My heart had shattered right there in his office, and I couldn’t shake the image from my mind. It hurt so much. I felt embarrassed, stupid even, for letting myself hope that Kai might choose me over her.Mer was still looking at me, her eyes full of concern. I bit my lip and shook my head slowly. “It’s nothing,” I whispered, but the crack in my voice gave me away.Mer’s expression softened, and she pulled me into a tight hug, not saying anything. I closed my eyes, leaning into her, grateful for the comfort even if I couldn’t tell her the whole truth.It was too much. I felt like such a fool for thinking Kai could ever put me first. Of course, he still loved Zara. She was everything I wasn’t—beautiful, confident, and most of all, someone Kai had always protected. I was just... there.I couldn’t help the small sob that escaped, and Mer rubbed my back soothingly. “It’s okay,” she murmured. “You don’t have to talk about it if you’re not re
