Billionaire's Unlikely Bride Sixty Three
Raven and Damon hurried through the automatic doors, her stomach churning as the sterile smell of the hospital greeted them. Raven's heart pounded in her chest, echoing louder with every step. Julie was sitting in the waiting room, her face buried in her hands, trying to muffle the sobs that still managed to escape. Emily sat beside her, holding her tightly and whispering soft words of comfort, but it was clear that nothing could ease Julie’s pain right now. The moment Raven saw Julie, tears brimmed in her eyes. She hadn't realized just how much she missed her until now. Raven rushed over, wrapping her arms tightly around her bestie. Emily moved aside to allow the friends to be close together. Julie was startled a bit, but when she saw who it was, she began to cry even louder, holding on to her tight. "Raven, where have you been? I missed you so much!” “I know, I’m sorry,” Raven’s voice was low, for Julie’s ears only. “I'm so scared right now; I don't know if Mason or Dad's going

“How did all of this happen?” she whispered, reaching for Emily’s hand and holding on tight. “You want me to explain the birds and the bees to ya, kid?” Damon teased, tension still in his voice as he tried to lighten the mood a little. He glared at Justin before finally accepting that there were more important things than Justin’s petty behavior. He was determined to figure out what the bastard was up to but, in the meantime… “Truce?” Justin nodded shortly, accepting the offer. “This isn’t over,” Damon warned him. “But there’s too much going on and Raven needs things to be calm. So you just got lucky, I’ll back off. For now.” Justin sighed. “Look,” he began, shoving his hands into his pockets. “I know I’ve been an asshole, and no one has any reason to trust me. But when I saw Mason’s car mangled into the tires of that truck… puts things in perspective, know what I mean?” “Yeah, I know what you mean. I’m not sure I believe you, but I know what you mean.” ~~~~ The minutes felt l

The hospital corridors were silent, and the weight of grief hung in the air. Raven hadn't spoken since the news had hit her. It felt like her entire world collapsed in a single breath. Damon glanced over at her, his face filled with concern, but he couldn’t find the right words. There were no words. He had just lost Charles, someone who had been a father figure to him too. Now Mason was in a coma, clinging to his life, and no one knew if he would wake up. Julie’s quiet sobbing pulled Damon’s attention back to the room. She stood there, red-eyed and trembling. He stepped toward her, pulling her into his arms, holding her tightly as if that would somehow take away her pain. "We knew this was going to happen," he murmured, running his hand through her hair. "We just never expected to lose him so soon." Julie didn't respond with words, only muffled cries as she buried her face in his chest. Her tears soaked through his shirt, but he didn’t care. The loss of Charles Barrett wasn’t j
Billionaire's Unlikely Bride Sixty Six
Three days later, the atmosphere was tense. Friends, family, and colleagues gathered to say their final goodbyes to Charles Barrett. The cemetery was filled with mourners. Raven stood near the front, her hand resting protectively over her belly. She felt disconnected from everything around her. Damon stood beside her, his hand on her back. Though his eyes were glassy with unshed tears, he still tried his best to stay strong. Justin stood at a corner with Mia trying to comfort him. Julie was with Emily. Her eyes looked like they were going to pop out from excessive crying. When it was Raven’s turn to speak, she stepped forward, her heart pounding. She clutched the edges of the podium, her knuckles turning white as she tried to steady herself. "I never got to meet my father," she began, her voice shaky. "For a long time, I wondered what it was like to have a father’s love. Until I met Charles." She paused, her throat tightening. "Charles wasn’t just Mason’s father. He becam

Damon was sitting beside Raven having insisted on taking everyone out for lunch after the funeral. Charles had said he didn’t want a wake, he couldn’t stand them and said that they were more depressing than the funeral itself, but he would want Damon to take care of his girls. Charles would be furious with him if he didn’t at least make them eat and Damon used that as an excuse to force Raven to eat. She had been struggling to take care of herself, overwhelmed by everything that was happening around her. If she couldn’t take care of herself, Damon owed it to Charles, Mason, and those babies to make sure they were taken care of. Damon felt great responsibility on his shoulders, one he was proud to bear. His phone rang and he pulled it from his pocket, freezing when he saw the phone number of the hospital. As his heart leaped to his throat, Damon stepped away from the table. He didn’t want to answer it anywhere near Raven. “Hello?” he said, pressing the phone to his ear. “Damon?

Justin woke up to the warmth of the sunlight penetrating through the blinds, he felt a soft body nestled against him. He opened his eyes to see Mia sleeping beside him, curled into him, her head against his chest. Her breathing was soft and steady, with her hair spread out around her face like an angel's halo. Somehow, at that moment, she was more beautiful than ever before. And, somehow, this moment felt right. Like he was supposed to be there, with this woman in his arms. His life suddenly felt real for the first time, like something inside him was awakening and this cleared in his vision. Uncle. Mason. He and Mason could have grown up together, like brothers, but his jealousy and resentment ruined that. He always saw Mason as the Golden Child. Everyone saw him and no one saw Justin. He realized that he had a second chance to make things right, to build a new life, and to make up for the things he regretted. Smiling, he leaned over and kissed Mia gently on the lips. Her eyes f

Nothing quite fit right but upsetting her right now was like stepping on a tiger's tail. "Raven, calm down. This is Mia, Justin's girlfriend." Julie tried to explain. "Mia? Aren't you Candice’s assistant? Did she send you here?" "You're supposed to be resting at home," Julie said softly. She shot a glare at Damon. "Why did you bring her here, Damon?" "Believe me, I tried to keep her home but she was going to come here with or without me," Damon said to Julie. “I figured if she came with me, it would be the safest option.” Raven ignored them, turning her focus entirely on Justin. "You’re the reason all of this happened. If it wasn’t for you, Mason would never have been in the car that day. He would never have had to go to the airport, he wouldn’t be in that bed, and Charles would probably still be alive. But you got what you wanted right? Are you happy now?" “Raven-” Julie gasped, glancing at her cousin. Justin had changed, he didn’t even look like the same person. Justin’s thr

Damon walked around the kitchen, glancing at the stovetop where the pot simmered. He stirred the fragrant chicken soup, the delicious scent filled the air. Damon was concerned about Raven; he had been for some time because Raven had barely touched her meals in the past few days; she'd become very picky with food and kept telling him she was fine, that she was merely tired. He didn’t believe her; he knew it was more than that, but he didn’t want to explore his feelings around the stress they shared as someone they cared about lay unconscious in the hospital. In a coma. With no idea whether he would wake up, Damon was losing hope and that made him angry with himself, as if his loss of faith would be Mason’s downfall. Raven and her emotions were unpredictable. One moment, she was smiling; the next moment, she was crying profusely. He had been doing some reading, the traditional book, “What to Expect when Expecting”, to make sure he would know how to take care of her just as well as Maso
