SERENA’S POV

He was leaning halfway over me as he brought his hand up to my face, running his fingertips over my cheek to cup my jaw, bringing his face down to mine. He brushed his lips over mine, once, twice, then diving into a kiss that sent the world spinning.

Then he grabbed my neck and kissed me senseless and there I was melting into his arms.

His lips. Christ, his lips! They were so soft and it felt like kissing silk . Then he pulled away just as quickly as he had leaned in for the kiss and just watched me before getting on to his feet.

As I lay there, trying to catch my breath, I suddenly felt a drop of rain on my shoulder. I glanced up, the droplets beginning to fall more steadily. Panic surged through me as I jumped to my feet.

"Kaden, it's about to rain! We need to start leaving!" I exclaimed, not wanting to get soaked.

He looked up at the darkening sky, realization dawning on his face. "You're right. Let's go."

We hurriedly made our way out of the training area, the rain

He set the box gently in my hands.Oh Cameron was a real charmer wasn’t he? He always had his way with gifts. “What is it?” I asked, feeling the soft material within. “Why don’t you open it and see?” He asked calmly digging his hands into his trouser pockets.Slowly, I lifted the lid, gasping as I revealed the treasure inside. Nestled in tissue paper was the most exquisite gown I had ever seen!It was a midnight blue chiffon dress practically glittering right back at me.“It’s gorgeous,” I breathed in disbelief. “Do you like it? I had it custom made for you,” Cameron said proudly. I ran my hands over the smooth fabric in awe. This

    SERENA’S POV“Morning Mr Alex,” I greeted my boss the following morning watching him lean back into his chair carefully."Good morning," he replied politely, gesturing for me to sit. "I've got a new case for you, Serena, and it's a big one." He slid a file across his desk toward me. “Hit me,”My fingers briskly flipped open the folder as he continued,"The D.A. just charged a celebrity with murder one - they’re saying he stabbed his girlfriend to death in a jealous rage. The press is going to have a field day with this. I'm putting you as lead on the defense.”Looking up, I nodded. "I'll get started preparing right away. When's arraignment?""Next Monday, in San Francisco. I'm assigning you an assistant for this one, given the scope." He stood and motioned to the doorway. "Serena, I'd like you to meet your new partner, Evan Cooper."Evan stepped forward with an easy smile, extending his hand in greeting. Tall and fit, he radiated calm competence. Dark hair fell messily across his str

As the numbers lit up towards my floor, I began thumbing through case files, mentally preparing for the day. The bell dinged and I stepped out, striding through the maze of desks towards my workspace. That’s when I spotted my boss,Alex, waving me over, an uncharacteristic grin on his face. “Serena, perfect timing. I have someone I want you to meet.” Alex gestured to the striking woman beside him, and I took her in with professional curiosity. Her almond-shaped brown eyes looked at me sharply while a small sly smile tugged at the corner of her lips.Her high cheekbones, perfect chocolate skin,dyed mint green hair pulled back into a slee

    SERENA’S POV“Why have you gone silent hmm?” Cameron narrowed his eyes at me. “You got a thing for Kaden?” I immediately denied it, not daring to meet his eyes. "Of course not," I said, my words lacking conviction.When I reached my room,I took a deep breath and quickly ran a hot shower. I toweled off,slipped into my nightdress and slid between cool soft white sheets, reaching to turn off the lamp. In the darkness, memories flashed before my closed eyes. Stupid memories of stupid Kaden of course. Ugh, I couldn’t help the way I felt.I sat up with a groan, flinging back the sheets in frustration and made my way to my dressing mirror. I sat down in front of it, staring blankly at my reflection. Was it because Bianca had entered the picture and that she was Kaden’s ex? Or was it the fact that she was going to be a major competitor at the office?Before I could find an answer, the door to my bedroom swung open, and Cameron barged in as he always did. He walked gently toward me,hands d

    KADEN’S POVI sighed as I looked over the paperwork strewn across my desk. As I reviewed the budgets for the upcoming quarter, a knock sounded at my office door. "Come in," I called, glad for a brief distraction. My secretary Janice poked her head in. "Sorry to bother you Mr. Lodge, but there's a Bianca Ramirez here to see you. She doesn't have an appointment but insists on seeing you."I frowned. Bianca was the last person I expected to walk through my door. "Did she say what she wants?" Janice shook her head. "No, just that it's important. What would you like me to tell her?"I pinched the bridge of my nose. Much as I wanted to avoid Bianca, turning her away without hearing her out didn't feel right. "Send her in, but try to reschedule my next meeting if possible." Janice nodded and withdrew, closing the door behind her. I took a sip of lukewarm coffee and prepared myself for the encounter. A minute later, the door swung open once more.Bianca strode in with a dazzling smile, r

    SERENA’S POV"I think… you care about me and I care about you too,” he said,his warm minty breath hitting my face. Kaden's words echoed in my mind as I sat on the couch, losing myself in thought. It was no secret how much I cared for him, but hearing him say he cared for me too caught me totally off guard. I could feel my heartbeat quickening as he leaned in even closer, his face mere inches from mine. Normally I would have teased him for being so forward, but in that moment all I could do was clear my throat nervously. "You're leaning a bit close there, you might want to give me some space," I said, cursing the way my voice shook slightly. WHY DID I ALWAYS LOSE IT ANYTIME HE WAS NEAR ME GOD DAMMIT!He smiled that lopsided grin of his, the one that showed his dimples and made my stomach flips. "What's the problem?" he asked playfully. "It's no big deal."I glanced toward the kitchen, worried my mother might appear. "What if someone walks in and sees us like this?"Kaden just shrugg

His dirty words,his intense stare, his smile, his scent, hell even when he didn’t utter a single word."I certainly wasn’t thinking in that direction,” I found my voice. “Why did you suck on my finger like that? You're not seriously turning into a vampire now, are you?" I teased, looking up to meet his eye. Kaden smiled, brushing a stray hair from my cheek. "Just maybe.Can’t have all that delicious blood going to waste,it tastes really good you know. And so does your pussy."You guessed right, my pussy tingled. God, what was he doing to me? Making a mess of my thoughts and desires in the best possible way. Reluctantly pulling away, I gestured to the broken shards. "Help me clean this up and stop talking nonsense" He bent down and was done cleaning in several seconds. "Now back to your wound,it’s not too deep. But we need to clean it."He turned to fet

He opened the first cabinet while I watched keenly.There wasn’t a bottle of chocolate syrup but there was whipped cream. “Can we make do with this?” He looked at me.“Hell yeah,” I said with a soft voice. He grabbed the bottle of whipped cream and set it on the table.“I wanna eat you up without it first and then with it,” he said gently and I nodded. Anything he wanted to do with me,I didn’t mind."Kaden..." I moaned against his ears as I grasped his cock through his pants which was already very thick and hard

Let’s say our goodbyes shall we?)CAMERON’S POVI slammed the trunk shut on my overstuffed suitcase, sighing in relief that it had finally closed. After so much preparation, the day was finally here - I was moving to Spain for treatment. A soft knock at the door pulled me from my thoughts. "Come in," I called, straightening up. The door opened to reveal Serena, arms wrapped tightly as if warding off cold. "Last chance to back out," she tried to joke, but it came out hollow. I moved to her, taking her hands gently in my own. "This is something I need to do, Serena. The best chance I have is with that specialist in Barcelona." Her bottom lip quivered, and I squeezed softly. "Hey, none of that now. I'm going to be just fine."“I’m sorry,” she sniffled. “I’m just getting sup

Now it's your turn to lose everything you cunning little bitch !" My heart stopped in my chest, body frozen in fear. This couldn't be real.But it was all too real as two more simultaneous bangs rang out, snapping me from my trance. I choked on a scream at the sight before me - Kaden and Cameron had leapt in front of me and were now collapsing to the floor in a pool of blood."No!" I shrieked, dropping to my knees in between them.Suddenly a final shot blasted, then silence. I slowly glanced up to find Richard's empty eyes staring blankly at the ceiling, a pool of blood blossoming under him. The police had finally arrived and taken him out. But the damage was done. I choked back a sobbing wail as I surveyed the whole room. Mom and Mr Lodge had hurried over to us in panic. I could hear them yelling but couldn’t make out what they were say

    NOVEMBER.(PRESENT DAY..)SERENA’S POVI fussed anxiously with my hair and makeup, wanting everything to be perfect for Cameron. He had been so caring and patient as I struggled to sort through my tangled feelings for the last three months. I owed him an answer tonight.I had moved into my own apartment finally. I wanted a fresh start, something new. And I knew I was not going to move on if I remained in that house. I remembered Kaden all too much. He was still in my heart and a tiny piece of my heart still believed he was somewhere out there… safe and alive maybe. Katy breezed into my house just then, arms loaded with bags from our shopping spree. “When Cam sees you, he’s going to melt!” she declared. Smiling weakly, I prayed she was right. I cared for Cam with all my heart but letting Kaden go and opening myself fully again still terrified me. Nevertheless, I was ready to try.Oh and Katy and I were best friends again.

Until I had my entire memories back I had to stay put. Which sucked. But it wasn’t all bad. Some time had passed and I was starting to develop a soft spot for Vivian. Setting down my pen that evening, I sighed and rubbed my temples.Vivian found me there, holding a mug of steaming tea. "How are you feeling tonight,Kade?" she inquired softly. I glanced up at her and took the mug in my hands."I remembered Bianca, my ex," I admitted heavily. “And why we broke up. But I haven’t remembered what else happened after that,”Vivian nodded in understanding, gingerly taking a seat beside me. "I never told you why I left, did I? The truth is, I was young and foolish - blinded by dreams of fame and fortune. Your father wanted us to work closely together and build his company together.

    THREE MONTHS AGO….. KADEN’S POV My eyes slowly opened, but everything was a blur. My head ached with a dull throbbing pain. As my vision came into focus, I realized I was lying in an elegant four poster bed, dressed in soft cotton pajamas. I turned my head, noticing a woman sitting beside the bed. She was lovely, with wavy brown hair and striking green eyes. But I didn't recognize her. Where was I? The last thing I remembered was...nothing. My mind was a blank slate. I tried to speak but my throat was parched and cracked. A straw was pressed to my lips and cool water trickled down. After several swallows, I lost consciousness again. My eyes opened again slowly, adjusting to the bright light. I wasn’t sure how long I had passed out for. Every muscle in my body ached as I tried to move. "Kaden, can you hear me?" The woman’s soft voice asked. My muddled mind scrambled for answers. "What...happened?" I croaked. "Kaden, you're finally awake!" she exclaimed in a happy v

"We're upset that our own children felt they had to deceive us for God knows how long.""I know, and I apologize," Cameron replied sincerely. "It was wrong of us. But my feelings for Serena are real, and there's a chance her baby could have been mine." Mr Lodge sighed heavily. "We trusted you both, and you continued lying to our faces every day. I'm very disappointed.""Pops, I know it was selfish of us. If only I had come clean when Serena lost the baby, this all could've been avoided." Mom's expression softened a fraction, though Mr Lodge still shook his head sadly. Cameron stepped forward, tentatively taking my hand in

    SERENA’S POVA month later….AUGUST.I inhaled Kaden's familiar cologne as I buried my face deeper into one of his favorite hoodies in his closet. I always came into his room anytime I felt the need to be near him. Every of his belonging was kept in place, untouched. It still seemed like he was there. He always loved to keep things in order. I was still mourning him though and probably would still continue till it was time to finally let go. But I wasn’t just mourning Kaden, I was mourning my baby too. That particular night I had learnt of Karen’s death, I had slipped in my bathroom and it was a terrible fall.My baby died even before I was being rushed to the hospital and I had to use crutches around the house and to work for moving. The cast had been removed from my leg only few days ago and I was walking properly now without the aid of the crutches. The excruciating pain I was feeling this whole time was both physical and emotional. I needed a break, I needed to unwind. But as

Serena sat blankly by the window, eyes red and empty. One hand idly sat on her belly. "Serena," I said softly, crossing over to sit beside her. "I brought you something to drink. You need to keep your strength up, for the baby." She didn't move or acknowledge the mug beside her. I sighed, running an anxious hand through my hair. "Please, Serena. You need to at least drink something, even if you don't feel like it."Finally, she whispered in a broken rasp, "There's no point, Cam. What am I eating and drinking for? Is there a party? We’re all mourning,." It seemed as though she was going to cry fresh tears soon.“You know,you cried more than me even if though Kaden is my twin.” I refused to use “was”. Somehow, I still felt like I hadn’t lost him yet. Even though we constantly had misund
