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

    KADEN’S POVI didn’t leave alright. Even though I really wanted to. But it would have been really foolish because I had no idea where I was gonna go anyway. 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.

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.

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

Plus, pardon me as this chapter would be told in Cameron’s POV and then Serena’s wrapping it up.

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

He leaned in, whispering urgently, "Serena, duck under the table! Quick!"Confused and alarmed, I stammered, "What? Why? What's happening?"Before he could respond, a woman stormed into the restaurant and scanned the place.In an instant, he confessed in hushed tones, "That's my crazy ex-wife. We're going through a messy divorce. Please, just duck under the table.

    SERENA’s POVDan Lodge, my supposed stepfather, flashed a warm smile and gestured for me to take a seat. "It's good to finally meet you, Serena. Julia has spoken such beautiful things about you. And you're such a beauty, just like your mother."I gave a small smile as I took a seat right next to my mother."It's great to be here," I managed to reply, still struggling with the sudden turn of events.Cameron, my ex-boyfriend, cleared his throat and greeted, "Welcome, Serena." His voice carried a hint of formality, and I responded with my fakest smile, avoiding direct eye contact. Instead, my gaze was fixed on the display of a large roasted turkey at the center of the table.Kaden, Cameron's twin brother, remained silent, and indifferent, as if I was invincible. Well, that was pretty rude. Cameron, on the other hand, looked oddly pleased to see me, a cheeky grin playing on that handsome face of his.Taking a closer look at both brothers, I noticed the subtle differences that set them ap

    SERENA’S POVMy eyes darted to the door, wondering what would happen if it swung open at that very moment.“Was just fucking with ya, it’s locked.” Cameron said with a devilish smirk. “I’d be right there Mom!” I called loudly and then whispered to him.”She cannot see you here”“What do you mean? This is my house.”I pushed him toward the bathroom. "Hide in there. I'll figure something out."“Wait, you expect me to stay in your bathroom and hide like a criminal?”“Don’t be impossible and keep that deep voice of yours down before she hears you from outside,” I said in my smallest voice throwing him a warning look.Just as I directed him to the bathroom and closed the door,I adjusted the towel on my chest and made way to my room door,opening it. I quickly threw on a casual smile, hoping to appear unfazed. "Hey, Mom. Sorry, I was just finishing up in the bath."Mom glanced around, her sharp eyes narrowing as she entered. "I can smell a man’s cologne. Were any of the twins in here?"I he

    CAMERON’S POVSeeing Serena again after a year made me very excited than I thought I would be.She was the last person on earth I expected to walk into the mansion last night. She looked even more radiant and beautiful than I remembered, making it difficult for me to focus on anything else. I had been to her room minutes ago and she wasn’t back from work yet. I was itching to see her especially because of how she avoided me this morning.Interrupting my train of thought, my father's voice broke through the haze. “You need to apologize to Kaden,” he urged.”It is better we avoid legal trouble as much as we can.”The mention of Kaden's name ignited a fire of anger within me. While I couldn't prove his involvement in the company's embezzlement, I couldn't shake the feeling that he had some part to play, despite Pete, a worker, taking the blame."Apologize to Kaden? Over my dead body," I retorted. "He may not be the mastermind, but he's involved somehow. I just know it."My father sighed

    SERENA’S POVI took Mom’s hand in mine. "I'm sorry, it wasn't meant to go on so long. But you two seemed so happy, I didn't want to upset things. Mr Lodge was the first man to make you happy after Dad and I didn’t want to ruin everything just because of our relationship that wasn’t even defined.""We're not upset about your relationship," Mr Lodge cut in firmly. "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

Because if he didn’t why was it taking so damn long to find him?My baby was growing inside my belly but inside I was feeling hollow.
