The echo of the heartbeat still haunted me, even after two days. It wasn’t just a memory; it was like a ghost that lingered in the corners of my mind, a sound too vivid to forget. That day, it all played out like a nightmare I couldn’t escape.
Adam led me into that cold, sterile room, white, clinical as if emotions couldn’t exist in a place like that. The table in the middle, an ultrasound machine nearby, and glass mirrors on both sides. I couldn’t see through them, but I could feel eyes, watchful, detached, probably judging.
How many were hiding behind those mirrors? How many were silently observing as they tied me down like some kind of animal?
The nurse flipped a switch, and suddenly, the room was filled with the rhythmic thumping of my baby’s heartbeat.
I couldn’t see the screen; the restraints wouldn’t

Caroline pov:The night was eerily silent, like a graveyard. The sky was a deep, inky black, speckled with a million stars gazing down. But inside me, a storm raged as fierce as any thunder outside.Her hand gripped mine, pulling me toward the car that idled nearby, its engine humming like an anxious predator.“Come, Caroline. The car’s waiting,” she urged, her voice tense as angry shouts echoed behind us.Her face, a mask of concern, twisted in the dim light, but I couldn’t bring myself to trust her.For all I knew, she could be one of them. How could she claim to be my aunt when my mother never mentioned her? And why now, after all these years?Nathaniel, at least I knew he wasn’t with them. He had always wanted to protect me. But her? She was a stranger, and this was my one chance to break free.

Nathaniel pov:"They'll be fine, boss," Theo said, his eyes meeting mine with a calmness I couldn't quite share."Just give me five more minutes."I glanced down at her still body, the oversized, tattered shirt hanging off her frame like she was disappearing into it.She looked so small, so fragile. I could barely recognize the girl I once knew. Her cheeks were hollow, and her eyes, though closed, seemed to carry the weight of everything she’d gone through.The image of her crumpled on the roadside was seared into my mind. If we hadn’t found her when we did, I don't think she would’ve survived. She was already halfway gone.When she first saw me, her eyes were wide, but it was like she didn’t even register who I was.I had to shake her gently, terrified that she might not recognize me at all.

Nathaniel's POV:"How is she?" The words left my mouth with a sense of urgency I couldn't hide, my heart pounding like a drum in my chest.The doctor smiled softly, "They both are stable right now."Both? Confusion hit me like a slap. The baby?"Wait... both?""The baby, sir."My heart stuttered."But she was bleeding... I thought..." I couldn't even finish the sentence.The blood, the chaos, I had been sure we had lost it. The baby couldn't have survived, right?"That was due to stress," the doctor explained patiently."It's not uncommon for some women to experience light bleeding. With everything she went through, it's expected."The relief that washed over me was almost too much to handle. I nodded, absorbing her words."The baby's

Caroline pov:***NEXT DAY***Slowly opening my eyes, I felt a throbbing pain in my head. How long have I been asleep? The last thing I remembered was Nathaniel's eyes and the blood.Was he really there or was it just a dream? The smell of strong disinfectant confirmed I was in the hospital.I blinked slowly, trying to survey the room, but my neck was stiff. The oxygen mask on my face felt uncomfortable as if I had been hit by a car multiple times. My throat was as dry as a desert."Hey, don't move," a shadow loomed over me.He was here. I tried to speak, but my mouth was covered by the mask. I needed water, but I couldn't ask for it."I know you're in pain, Love, but you need the oxygen for the baby," he said, gently brushing my hair away from my face.The baby? Was the baby still alive? I was confus

Caroline pov:I was curled up in bed, spooning tomato soup into my mouth, the warmth of it barely soothing the storm inside me.A few hours ago, I didn’t expect Nathaniel to bring me to a sleek penthouse in Berlin, Germany. Nor did I expect the sea of reporters waiting outside. He mumbled something about his father and the cult, but honestly, I was too drained to pay attention.My thoughts were louder. He killed my family. No matter how hard I tried to push that fact aside, every time I looked at him, the truth hit me harder.I vaguely remember him saying he’d been working with the FBL for some time, something about them trying to nail his father for years but never finding enough evidence. They finally caught him laundering money from investors.I was worried that they’d drag Nathaniel down with him, but he assured me he was an informant. Stil

Nathaniel pov:I looked down at Caroline, her soft breaths brushing against my chest as she slept. There was so much I needed to take care of, so many problems waiting to be dealt with, but I couldn’t leave her right now. Not with everything she’d been through.Telling her about Addison was so hard. The way her face crumbled when I told her... it wrecked me. I didn’t want her to blame herself, but of course, she did. That’s just how she is. Addison was the only friend she had left, and now even that was gone. I prayed the memorial would give her some kind of peace, but Taehyung? He wasn’t going to let it slide. And neither was I. Adam would pay for what he did, and I wouldn’t stop until I found him.I glanced at Caroline’s bruised face, her fragile body curled up close to mine. Everything about her screamed broken, but there was still so much strength in her. Now, it was just us, me, Nari, and our baby. No one else mattered. Her mother, her brother... they’d always stood in our way

I was finally here, far away from that suffocating apartment, staring at the peaceful water.I had been waiting for this moment, waiting for the right time to confront him, but it never seemed to come.Weeks passed, and I kept trying to figure out how I felt, but the more I tried to convince myself things were fine, the more I knew they weren’t.I had lied to myself and pretended everything was okay. It was easier that way. But I couldn't keep doing it. I needed answers.“Did you kill my mother and brother?” I asked, my voice barely more than a whisper.I kept my eyes fixed on the water, afraid to look at him, afraid of what I might see in his expression.The air between us felt heavy, and I could sense his te

Caroline pov:***One Week Later***“Thank you all for being here. I know Addison would have appreciated it,” Grayson said into the microphone.I couldn’t believe how calm he was. I was a mess, tears streaming down my face all day. I kept replaying the promise I made to Addison in my head. I was supposed to be there for her, but now she was gone, buried six feet under. They said it was a freak accident, but I know her parents were hiding the truth.Being back in Toronto brought back a lot of bad memories, but I knew I had to say goodbye to this life before starting a new one. I couldn’t leave without saying a proper goodbye to Addison.***Flashback to the Hospital***“I told you I’m here and I’m never leaving you,” I said, pulling him into a hug.“I forgive you. It wasn’t your fault. You were just a kid who had a terrible life,” I whispered into his neck.“I’m so sorry. I wanted to tell you. I regret everything I did. If I could go back and change it, I would,” he said.“I forgive you
