POV(FREYA),

I woke up to the smell of pancakes hitting my nose very early in the morning, I slowly sat up and found Kai missing. He wasn't by my side Anymore, a slight giggle escaped my lips as I imagined him making breakfast for me. He has never done it but maybe I suddenly got high hopes this morning since I thought he was making breakfast.

I hurried out of bed and rushed downstairs in my pyjamas. I was shocked when I saw numerous foods displayed on the dinning table and I found myself wondering if Kai really prepared all these.

I followed the smell of the pancakes to the kitchen and Bianca was holding up my kitchen spoon, flipping pancakes in my pot. With my ingredients?

Without thinking twice or considering anyone's feelings. I yelled, "get the f**k out of my kitchen!"

The hot pancakes landed on the frying pan handle and the pan flipped and fell on her leg, it burned her and she yelped in pain. I hurried to her and immediately held up the pan.

Kai rushed into the kitchen and I immediately dropped the pan since it looked like I burned her with it. He gave me a stare that I couldn't read and I hoped he didn't think I intentionally hurt her.

Without asking questions or asking me how it happened, he lifted her up and carried her to the living room.

I tailed behind and watched as he cleaned her burn wounds and sealed it up.

"What did you do that for?" Kai asked, glaring at me and I knew he would misinterpret the situation.

"It's not what you think Kai, I didn't hurt her. Tell him what happened Bianca..." My voice trailed off watching Bianca in disbelief as she cuddled up in Kai's arms and made an uncomfortable look.

"I told you to wait till the results but you had to go ahead and hurt her? Is that how much you hate her?" Kai shot at me and I wanted to yell at him but I knew how that would turn out.

"There's no use in talking to you..." I hissed and hurried upstairs in anger. This felt like a dream and I wished it would all end after the DNA results. Bianca seemed too relaxing for someone who brought in another man's child, like she had a plan.

I felt hurt that Kai was pulling away too quick, it wasn't supposed to be this fast. I had pictured this same moment but in a more proper way.

We arrived at the hospital and they all went to get their blood drawn except me and I felt left out.

In as much as I felt hurt, I had no one to confide in.

"It would take at least 3 business days before the results can be out." The doctor informed us and I felt too uneasy, I thought the results would be out immediately.

Bianca held onto Kai's hand and wouldn't let go, he looked too pleased holding her and I was jealous that he never gave me a chance to hold him like that in public.

"Let me help you with the bag," Bianca feigned concern reaching for my bag and I glared at her.

"Like you can lift your own bag," I shot at her and Kai shot me a bad look.

"Let's go," Kai said and I rolled my eyes. "Ouch ouch!" Bianca winced in pain and made her leg look like she couldn't walk.

"I can't move my legs, help me stand up."

"You can't walk like this, Freya could you please hold Liam for a while?" Kai asked handing me the toddler that looked like he fell from hell(he's very cute)

I hesitated for a while but finally carried him, Kai lifted Bianca like a child and walked out of the hospital without looking at me.

I felt like my whole world had shattered that instant and I wanted to throw this damnn child into the trash can.

I joined them in the car and Kai had me sit in the passenger seat while Bianca sat beside him at the front.

We maintained perfect silence till we got home and I stormed into my room the moment I got home.

I rushed into the bathroom and turned on the shower on my head, I wanted to cool off and relax.

I sat in the filled tub and cried my heart out, I thought I had built a family. But it turns out the family I dreamt of building would only exist in my dreams.

I heard a knock on the door and I immediately wiped my tears and turned the shower off.

Kai entered the bathroom before I could prepare myself. He stared at me and I immediately avoided his gaze.

"Are you okay?" That question made me want to hit him hard in his groin, like how the f**k does he expect me to be fine after all that happened?

"I'm fine, I just wanted to have a bath." I lied without looking at him even though I knew he was staring right at me.

"With your clothes on?" He said and I realized I was seating in the water filled tub in my dress.

"I jus-just I forgot," I lied and stepped out of the tub with my dress dripping with water.

"Is this about Bianca?" Kai asked and I bit my lips. He would never understand me, not in this life.

"You don't understand Kai, the point is..." My words were cut off when we heard Bianca scream so loud from downstairs.

Kai rushed out of the bathroom without looking at me, it was as if I was saying something meaningless.

I felt a sharp pain pulsated through my belly and I held the shower stand as aid so I wouldn't slip.

I stayed in the bathroom for one hour with the hope that Kai would return, but I was wrong. He never came back.

I had my bath and went directly to bed, hoping this would all end when I wake up in the morning.

    Chapter 088POV FREYA I forced a small smile. “No. In fact, I was just thinking we should celebrate something.”That caught him off guard. “Celebrate?”I nodded quickly, trying to shift the conversation. “i planned a little something just for the two of us."He blinked, the sharp edge in his expression softening. “honestly I'm surprised You remembered.”“Of course I did,” I said lightly. “So I thought… we could celebrate early. Just us.”For a moment, something like genuine warmth crossed his face. Then he reached out, hand resting on my waist. “You always know how to make me feel special, Freya.”I smiled faintly, trying not to show how his touch made me stiffen. “That’s kind of the point.”He leaned closer, voice dropping lower. “What did I do to deserve you?”I wanted to answer, but the truth would’ve ruined the moment. So I didn’t.Instead, I busied myself setting the table. The lights dimmed naturally as dusk crept through the windows. I’d cooked earlier, not knowing why I bothe

    Chapter 087POV FREYAThe house felt too quiet after Alan left.His scent still lingered — faint, clean, and annoyingly familiar. I tried opening the windows to let it out, but somehow it felt like he had left a piece of himself in the air, in the way silence settled like a bruise across my chest.I stood there for a long time, staring at the fruit basket he’d brought. A ridiculous gift, but one that felt heavier than it looked.“Eliza,” I whispered under my breath, almost like the name could balance out the chaos in my head.The TV still played in the background, Alan’s face flashing across the screen again in a looped segment. I caught myself staring before shaking it off, muttering, “You’re losing it, Freya.”I turned off the TV.I exhaled deeply and looked around the quiet house. The clock ticked softly in the living room. It was still early. If I started now, I could pull it off before Kaiden came home.I tied my hair back, rolled up my sleeves, and got to work.By the time the s

    CHAPTER 086POV FREYAMy heart was racing so fast at an unhealthy rate and it almost hurt. But i wasn’t going to show it. Not to him. Not to the man who should’ve stayed buried in my past.Seeing his disgusting face fueled my anger but I decided not to give him the idea of anything I was feeling.At the moment, he's my husband's brother.i folded my arms, tilted my head slightly, buried the past in a haste and said with a smug calm voice, “Come in.”I said it so casually and Alan stepped inside like he’d never been gone, setting a box of fruits neatly on the table. The sight made my scoff under my breath. It reminded my too much of the day Eliza had shown up with the same gesture, gifts wrapped around guilt.“Seriously?” i muttered, watching him drop the box like he owned the place. “Is this a thing with you people now? First Eliza, now you. Do fruit baskets come with the Orlova family curse?”He blinked, a small frown tugging at his lips. “Eliza was here?”“Yeah,” she replied dryly,

    CHAPTER 085POV FREYAThe house felt unusually calm that afternoon. For the first time in weeks, I wasn’t anxious or restless.Maybe it was the quiet sound of the air conditioner or the way the sunlight danced across the marble floor, but everything felt lighter.I leaned against the counter, scrolling through my phone while smiling to myself.Kaiden had been acting so sweet lately and gentler even.I wanted to do something to surprise him. His birthday was only two days away, and with all the chaos around the Grayson company, he’d completely forgotten.Maybe I’d cook his favorite dinner. Or decorate the garden with candles and lights like we used to before everything got so complicated.He deserved something peaceful for once.We did.“Ma’am,” a soft voice interrupted my thoughts. It was Marla, the maid, holding her little purse in both hands. “I’ve finished for the day.”I turned to her, still smiling. “Thank you, Marla. You’ve done great today, you can leave now.”She paused, her b

Walking.And somehow, still stealing the air from my lungs the way he always did.Alan.The man I killed with my own hands.The man who should’ve stayed six feet under.No one should know I killed him.Especially not Freya.If he gets to her, if he even whispers the right words, she’ll believe him.And once she believe… everything unravels.No. I can’t allow that.I have to get closer, closer than ever.

She needs me.I’ll lock every door if I have to.I found her near the front gates, smiling politely as she bid the family goodbye. The golden light from the chandeliers spilled over her hair and she looked so distant, so far away from me already.My blood boiled.Before she could turn, I was already behind her. My hand shot out and wrapped around her wrist, pulling her back. She gas
