When Annie learned that her husband Eric was still with his ex-girlfriend Mia and that Mia was also pregnant with his child, she left for good by faking death and renamed herself as Renee. When they meet again, Annie is a completely different person. Eric's eyes on fire. He wants to devour her. But he's interrupted. "Mommy who's that?" "A stranger." "Say that again? Who am I to her?!" -------------------------------------------------- Renee is no longer the woman Eric once knew—stronger, unyielding, and harboring secrets of her own. She thought she'd left her old life behind when she faked her death to escape the heartbreak of her husband Eric's betrayal. But fate has other plans. Now, caught between the past she thought she’d escaped and the present she fiercely protects, Renee must confront the man who distroyed her. Eric, meanwhile, will stop at nothing to learn the truth about her true identity—and the mysterious child by her side. Can they handle the truth? Or will Renee manage to find her happiness that she's always dreamed of having?
Voir plusI want to be bothered by the amount of times Eric has stood up for me considering I should be able to fend for myself, but this is for Debbie. Word by word, Eric’s voice builds her confidence back, and for that I’m grateful.Unfortunately, Eric defending her is only going to increase her desire of h
Renee’s POV I expect the principal to sort this out right as this would be an excellent opportunity for him to exemplify his credentials, but to my horror he rushes over to Nilo with great concern.He wraps Nilo into a hug, fawning over him, checking his body for scrapes and bruises. “What happened
Ignoring Eric’s intense gaze, I shoulder my way to the door. “Nilo is not my biological child.” Eric calls out after me and I hesitate, almost turning back around, but I don’t.Annie might care about that statement, but Renee doesn’t because ultimately it doesn’t matter, even if Eric is telling the
Renee’s POVThe sudden force of the door bursting open causes me to jump out of my seat, which I only too soon after realize makes it appear that something suspicious was going on. I resist the urge to blurt out that nothing was actually going on. I bite my tongue, knowing that would only make matte
Perhaps I can reconcile my ill ending with Annie by making amends with Renee. Building a relationship with her will somehow abridge me and Annie’s lost connection.Though this is exactly the issue. Emotions and feelings are illogical. In fact, there’s no evidence linking them together at all and bel
Eric’s POVI know I’m making her uncomfortable, but does she even think about how she makes me feel? She looks a bit ridiculous sitting in that big leather swivel chair practically engulfing her.If she just sat up straight and even pretended she had an ounce of power, she would look more natural. I
I look back at Jasper who’s already nodding. As though reading my mind he agrees to drive Debbie home while I go back to the office.“Thank you,” I tell him and hopefully he knows I mean that for more than just driving Debbie. With that, I follow Eric back to work.The building is practically empty
Renee’s POVEric’s admission startles me. Our eyes meet, only briefly but it’s enough to recognize that sadness in them that I thought I saw before.“I’m surprised an Alpha like yourself is having a reaction to such a rejection,” Jasper says, only meaning it to sound medically impressive still it’s
“Welcome,” he says flashing us a smile that shows off his polished teeth, and ruffling Debbie’s hair. “Come this way,” Jasper says as if we don’t know where his office is.He isn’t wearing a lab coat and his scrubs cut off right at his shoulder, extenuating the swell of his bicep as he extends his a
