The apprehension of Julian took several weeks, throughout which he lost everything he had, attending to lawsuits and hiring lawyers suits that, of course, he didn't stand a chance of winning. I made certain of that.

Thereafter, I plunged him into prison, although his creditors gambling debts, mind you took their pound of flesh first. During the days that Julian's process unfolded, Miley was absent from the

company. On the first day, I figured she wanted to stay with our kids since they hadn't gone to school either, but the next day, neither she showed up nor did they at school. Miley wasn't at the company either. I couldn't stand it anymore and went to their estate. But, once there, I didn't dare to knock. I retreated and waited for hours upon hours, yet I never caught sight of any of them leaving or entering.

And if they had left? The mere thought shook me to the core had I lost them? How Would | see them now? Even if it was from a distance, finding solace in their proximity co

    Miley POV "Kids, why haven't you gotten up yet? You're going to be late." I entered my children's room, as every morning, but unlike the usual scene where they are both getting ready, they were both still in bed Joe with his glassy little eyes and Kiara, my little one... "Sweetie, what's wrong?" I immediately approached her. Kiara was burning with fever and had a severe cough. Kiara:"I don't feel well, Mummy." Jaden: "I wanted to tell you, but she didn't want me to. Mum, l'm scared." "Don't worry, love, your sister is going to be okay. Go tell Dave to get the car ready; we have to go." Phoebe: "Miss... What's happening?" "Kiara got worse, bring compresses and the medicine from the top drawer; I'm taking her to the hospital." Phoebe: "Why did she relapse?" my brother must have told her how delicate Kiara's condition was, and if this is also a consequence of having a pregnancy in the Sorrowful state it was in.

    Miley POV Until yesterday, I bore the resentment towards the man that had caused me the most pain in my life. Last night, the sense of emptiness grew larger to the point where I went to my children's room, to sleep with them, even though I could not fall asleep. The nightmare was not the usual one; this time Logan was leaving, and I saw him from afar, because my chest hurt from his gaze, and hearing his words echo "| love you" as he walked away. Why won't he leave me in peace? Two days have passed, and those dreams have not left me, and they continue to hurt. Now, I am in the office having dropped my children at the nursery, paying little to no attention to anything. In the last nightmare, Logan was dead, his hands cold and pale, with a tormented expression that I can't shake from my mind. It hurts to even remember it.Dave kept me sane during my workday; he does not know what is happening to me, or at least l like to believe so. However, during the mandatory bre

    Logan's assertion, something I didn't expect, am I not the most aware that Jaden is a wonderful, special child? But how could he know something bad was going to happen to me? I saw Logan stand up and I stopped him. "You're not fully recovered yet, your fever was nearly 104 degrees until recently." (He's still very warm) Logan: I'm fine... he pulled away from my grasp, the moment I focused on the way he held it, Logan: Sorry, I didn't mean to... he'd apologized earlier for touching me, he was helping me, but he continues to apologize, even now when I was the one who approached him, (though it was without thought)Logan: Miley thank you for being here, it truly makes me happy, but you owe me nothing, the last thing I want is to make you feel guilty or worried, my wounds are healed, see? and yes, he's right, there's not a trace left of even the smallest cut, but that happened long ago, what has kept him here, are his fevers and all the rest, and though it's tr

    Logan POV I am aware that Miley instructed me not to visit them, but that is a request I'm unable to honor. Thus, here I am once again, though I know she's no longer here.My little princess dashed up to greet me. I cherish every one of these fleeting moments. Kiara: are you feeling better, daddy? What's going on? Kiara, do you know who I am? Did Jaden tell you? I glanced at him, but he only shrugged, and I couldn't help but smile. Kiara just called me daddy. "Yes, my princess, I'm feeling much better. How about you? How have you been?" Kiara:I'm happy. Mummy said we can see you, right Jaden? My son confirmed it. So Miley has said I can see them, why the sudden change of heart? Regardless, I am deeply grateful. "Jaden, I know you're still upset with me for all the hardship I caused Miley, but may I give you a hug?"His silence speaks volumes. I don't wish to make him uncomfortable, it's natural, though for now, the relief is in being able to see them. "It's

    Miley POV I often wonder if letting my guard down and letting Logan get close is the right thing to do, but the smile on my children's faces makes it all worth it. Plus, Jaden is suffering because of both of us; I can't keep harboring all this hate and anger. It doesn't matter if it hurts me, but if it harms my baby, that I will not allow. And if Logan needs to be near them to stop feeling the same, then he can come closer.After dropping them off at school in the morning, I went out to buy a few things. It's a surprise; I hope they like it.Dave barely speaks to me anymore. I've already apologized; what else does he want? I can't do much more; maybe things are fine as they are. When I returned to my office, I found a beautiful bouquet of red and white roses. I must admit, it brought back so many happy memories that I couldn't help but smile. It was quite unexpected and sweet, and I originally thought Dave had sent them since he didn't come in with me like he somet

    Miley POV I have an abundance of work and numerous plans with my little ones for this afternoon and the rest of the weekend. I can't simply sit and think alone, doing nothing-the outstanding tasks must be completed. Thankfully, I made significant progress yesterday, leaving almost nothing for today.A knock on my door interrupted my thoughts. "Come in." Dave announced, "President Pierce wishes to see you." It's unusual for him not to burst in as he typically does... Now that I consider it, this is the first time he's visiting since he stopped his pursuit over me. "Let him in, Dave, thank you!" Both entered,but Dave didn't assume his usual position; Logan stood quite a distance from me. "What do you need, Mr. Pierce?" His gaze shifted from me to the roses I had already placed in a vase. I could swear he smiled--a surprising gesture that reminded me of Someone... Never mind.Logan stated, "I went to see our children this morning. I assume his pause was to ant

Little does she know, the more I restrain my heart's desires and impulses, the greater my need grows to shield and delight them. Yet, I cannot forget that their joy might require my absence. It pains me to consider, but should my proximity inflict further hurt... I will depart. To what extent must I distance myself to not seem a threat to her? Her fear from that time haunts me, continuing to inflict pain. So, when I see her now, and the urge to draw closer, to simply hold her hand or share a kiss swells-if only I were bolder-it all remains wishful thinking.

    Logan POV I rose before anyone else, faithful to my usual routine that I had slightly let slip away. Miley lay peacefully sleeping. I planted a kiss on her, admiring how beautiful the engagement ring looked on her finger, yearning to soon make her my wife at the earliest.

Jaden's face wasn't calm either, prompting me to rush to her side, filled with concern. "Princess, you're burning up." Jaden: Her throat hurts!- Kiara gestured, confirming what Jaden had said was true. "It might be an infection. Are you okay?" Jaden: Yes, I was about to call you. "I know you're a good brother.

    Miley POV A few days have passed, and Logan ceased inquiring about my troubles. Yet, I cannot bring myself to speak of it to him, not without blaming him to some degree... I desire for my mind to grasp what my heart already comprehends. Logan couldn't have known, so it wasn't truly his fault, yet it's not that simple. And since I don't want to hurt him with my words or actions, I choose silence. However, I know I must tell him, for Kiara is his daughter as well, and deserves to know what's happening. But how do I convey it? It's been two weeks now, Nathan and Aiden have returned. They said they'd be back Soon. Logan and I, we are not on the best of terms; as long as I am mute, it's hard to be fully comfortable in our meetings, yet I miss him so much...

    Logan POV Our magical day is drawing to a close. We went out for dinner after Miley insisted she was completely fine. I knew that wasn't entirely true, but she wanted us to go, so all three of us agreed. I didn't want her to think that her condition had prevented me from fully enjoying my birthday. Well, the plan wasn't completely successful. I have Miley sitting on our bed with an expression I truly dislike. According to her, it's because if she had known I was coming, they would have prepared everything for a perfect birthday. "The truth is, Miley, from the first moment you gave me the best birthday gift of my life!" Miley: I didn't do anything. I only wished you happy birthday in the morning when you woke me up, remember? Well, I did it while you were sleeping, but you didn't hear it." I moved closer to her, placing my hands on the bed. "In fact, I did hear it. But since I didn't think you knew what day it was, I ignored it. Besides, everything I wanted was right bef

    Miley POV "Good morning, love" the gentle touches on my face and the delicious scent enveloping me made me smile-it really was true. Logan and I were now totally united. "Good morning!" I wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed him. I vividly remembered that after the night's events, Logan had helped me get dressed, and I had then fallen into a deep sleep. Logan: Here's your breakfast. You must be starved. "I am hungry, but I wanted to make you something special since it's your birthday today."He looked at me, clearly surprised. Logan: The twins came in earlier too and wished me a happy birthday.-" Mr. Imani told us... Happy birthday, love."I kissed him, and he responded with the gentlest smile l'd ever seen, wrapping me in a tight embrace. He's like a child in that moment. What expression will he have when I give him his gift? I hope he likes it. "Has no one ever wished you a happy birthday before?" Logan: Well, yes, but never before by the three people I love an

    None of what happened previously explains why our stunning men are furious, well.. It's not all sweetness and roses in paradise, and anything left unresolved can turn into a big problem. After grabbing a bite at a food stall - they couldn't spare time for more - they felt it was the best meal they'd had in ages. They went back to Nathan's apartment, and although there were more kisses, caresses, and wild actions, they just slept embraced and not quite fully clothed. The next morning, at 10 o'clock, Nathan was the first to wake up. He was thrilled; it.hadn't been a dream, Aiden was his, or atleast he hadn't seemed to mind that part of him... But just showing him the most "normal" of his repressed fantasies and desires, Nathan wondered if Aiden would stay after discovering everything else, which was his persistent doubt. He has a particularly strong desire for dominance... The allure of combining pleasure with pain. What would Aiden's expression be if he woke up now...

    Nathan gifted him a fervent kiss and slid his hand beneath the other's clothing. He wasted no time. His fingers, already slick with some sort of lubricant, began to ease their way inside the smaller man. It was painful, it was unfamiliar, but it was also thrilling. He had never done this before, but hell, it felt even hotter than when he was the one in control. Nathan withdrew his fingers at the sound of his cell phone. Nathan: Blast it, I forgot... -he whispered into Aiden's ear, who was wondering what was going on. Nathan: Be a good boy and wait for me here while I make a call.. -It must be a joke, Aiden thought, but then he felt the other's body rise from the bed. "Don't you dare... Ahhh, damn it!'A surge of pleasure shot through him. He got it, that madman had slipped something inside himjust before removing his fingers. He heardNathan's laughter followed by him drawingcloser.Nathan: I told you to behave. The vibrator is only on medium setting, but you're making such

    Why was he still so angry? He had already told him that he had no interest in that girl. If he wanted to know how much he cared, it was obviously too much; he felt incredibly stupid and pathetic. He just wanted to leave, but Nathan kept holding him so tightly. Was it really necessary for him to cling that close to him? The door swung open, and he was pushed inside the dark room. The grip on his arm loosened, and he took the chance to break free. He could barely see anything, only their outlines were barely discernible, but he could clearly feel the other's furious gaze on him.He didn't want to be there. He felt wounded and annoyed. If this went on, things would indeed end badly. He made for the exit, navigating around the other person, barely grazing the doorknob before he was attacked again, this time even stronger than before. He had always thought Nathan appeared a bit wild deep down, but behaving like this over a Woman... And what if she wasn't just an

    Days Earlier with Aiden Weeks after the altercation between Aiden and Nathan, and since the latter had left without a word and without showing up for a single day, Elian decided he would just let everything be; that's why he didn't bother trying to reach out to him. He had discharged himself from the clinic a few days ago, convinced he was ready to return. Even though Miley told him it was okay if he couldn't make it to the twins' birthday, he had no intention of staying locked up there any longer - that was one of the reasons he had requested his discharge. He felt perfect, with the doctors themselves astonished at his recovery; nevertheless,they wanted to continue doing their unnecessary analyses and tests. He felt more like a captive guinea pig than a special patient. He was already at the apartment he had chosen for himself from the beginning, which he never managed to use. First and foremost, he needed to see the world outside; it felt like an eternity since he'd b

    As we packed our belongings, a slight feeling of sadness washed over us; our beautiful vacation had come to an end. Draco zipped his luggage, throwing tantrums like a little child, mumbling how he didn’t want us to leave. I couldn’t help but laugh at his display. I walked over to where he stood, his arms folded across his chest. I wrapped my arms around him. “Have you looked at your face in the mirror? Hahaha, come on. We’ll make more memories back home,” I whispered, kissing his nose. “I love you.” He mumbled, “And I love you too.” As we held each other, I cherished the warmth and comfort of his embrace. “So, ready to head back home?” I asked, releasing him. He nodded, taking a deep breath. “I guess.” We shared one last glance around the luxurious hotel room that birthed something magical, then headed out, holding hands. As the plane took off, Draco and I had settled into our seats, with our hands intertwined. The atmosphere was totally different from the previous one
