When her supposed happily-ever-after turns into a nightmare of broken glasses and bleeding hearts, Kenya Brown finds herself alone in the cold house of her marriage. She did all she could to save her marriage with the man she thought was the IT for her, only for her to be left alone, sick, and pregnant. Years later, she comes back as a changed woman. She is stronger than her former self, and her source of strength is the black-eyed boy who looks exactly like her ex-husband. Royal Carter has all the money and fame, yet he can’t fight the loneliness that eats away at him. He finds out about her ex-wife’s return and about the boy. After years of regret, he decides to pursue the love of his life, with grim determination to win her back. He cannot live without her and will do whatever it takes to have his wife and son back. Will they be able to bury the past and create new memories, or are the odds stacked and standards too high to move past them?

Chapter 1: Apocalypse

ApocalypseKENYA POVGosh it hurts.It hurts so fucking much.I thought to myself as I clutched my stomach in a tight grip and groaned as the muscles of my now empty stomach jerked up and kicked whatever that was remaining of food in my stomach. The sound of my best friend gagging into the phone speaker had me chuckling after I had thrown up a fair share into the toilet, then dropped to the floor and wiped my puke-smeared mouth before groaning out loud.“Seriously girl, you need to get up and go to the doctor. That’s one hell of food poisoning you got there.” She accused into the speaker, and I breathed slowly through my nostrils as I searched for the discarded phone on the floor with my left hand.“Only if you tell me why the hell you are gagging that side.” I countered dryly, feeling so drained all I wanted was to curl up in a ball and just sleep.I was so tired. So spent.“You’ve been throwing up for the past three hours. That’s so damn unhealthy and yes, I could smell all that pu...

Chapter 2: FREEDOM
Freedom ROYAL POVThe cold rain pour felt like a soothing elixir against my heated, inflamed body as I walked out of the house and into the black, dark night.Everything inside of me hurt. It felt like I had swallowed down on a million razors and blades and they were ripping through my throat with every intake and exhalation of breath.The black Mercedes V-class was parked a good distance from the house, and I walked slowly towards it, letting the density of the situation dawn on me with all its gloominess. It was done. And I don't think after that walk out the door, there was no going back,I had delivered what I had been dreading for this whole entire month. And I had gained my freedom. It was supposed to feel all merry like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders and that I could finally fucking breathe for the first time in a very long time. But why the hell did it feel like a part of my soul had been chipped from me? Why did I feel so empty inside?The car honked, and I st

Chapter 3: New Beginning
New BeginningsKENYA POVA few days passed, and I continued wallowing in the pits of hell with pain being the highlight of my every waking moment. Nothing I did seemed to be bringing me solace or consolation I very much needed after that long crusade through hell, and each day the seed in my womb continued growing. Knowing of its existence, knowing that I was carrying a piece of me and Royal inside of me did not help at all. The fact alone was a double-edged sword, and it pierced through me so hard that I couldn’t breathe.There was a point in my life where my whole life revolved around that man, and every grail of my soul knew I would move mountains for him.Had I known how I would fall from grace and crush onto the ground into countless smithereens, I would not have been such a fool and believed true love and happily ever after existed.Or maybe they did, but I was not cut out for that.But through it all, gratitude simmered on low with Anna as she remained stoic and unmoving by my

Chapter 4: Tennessee
~FOUR YEARS LATER~TennesseeKENYA POVThe disturbing rattle of the plane touching the ground pierced through the dense haze of sleep. A tiny, small, and smooth hand grazed the side of my face, pulling me further into the land of the living."Mommy? Wake up, Mommy." my eyes snapped wide open, then came into contact with a little darling. A small smile touched his face as I stared into those storm-grey eyes that were glaring at me patiently. My eyes ghosted around his face, taking in the curly razor cut that made him even more cute. I couldn't help but smile."Come here, sweetie." the little goofball jumped into my waiting arms, then rested his head on my chest, nuzzling further for cuddles. The scent of his shampoo and his existence wafted into my nostrils like a breeze of fresh air, and I found myself thanking God for gifting me such a perfect thing."I am sorry I fell asleep baby." I kissed the top of his head, grim satisfaction spreading through me as the smooth inside of his hand

Chapter 5: Nostalgia
Chapter 6. NostalgiaKENYA POVThe following morning came to with an empty house. A horrifying sense of Deja Vu raked over my whole body with cold fingers when I woke up staring at the ceiling of my past... It felt like I had just gotten into the wheel of time, and I was back to five years ago before things turned sour and unholy!My room was exactly how I left it; a white ceiling, cream walls, a matching carpet, and cream bed sheets. Everything was just as minimal as it had been 4 years ago, and I hated how the whole place seemed to be untouched by the hands of the clock. Even the stuffed toys I left on the floor were still there, yet the place was as neat as it could get. There was no doubt Anna kept it clean, waiting for me to lick my wounds and finally come back home.I hopped off the bed, took a small tour around the house, and let the forgotten memories wash over me like a Summer waterfall. My fingers grazed the walls, touched the shiny surfaces of our townhouse, sniffed the pil

Chapter 6: Not Just A Bad Dream
NOT JUST A BAD DREAMROYAL POVThe back of my ear was inflamed, almost to the point of pain. But the sound of the sweetest laughter acted as a soothing balm for all kinds of pain; that I could barely register the burn on the skin. it was almost unbelievable, how her very simple existence seemed to be the were for literally all kinds of pain.I swerved the car onto another street, laughing at the joke she was trying to tell me but couldn’t, because she was too busy laughing at herself. We were drunk, and reckless as ever. Just like always, and it felt like a dream... A dream I didn't want to wake up from!Heck. That tattoo was a decision we made in the heat of the moment and never really gave it too much thought. We didn't have to, because it felt right. Etching her name on my skin was one of the things that were up there on my bucket list, and now that I had it, satisfaction was the only thing I could feel inside of me. Everything that had to do with her felt right. It felt like the w

Chapter 7: Memory Lane
Chapter 4: A WALK DOWN THE MEMORY LANEKENYA POVMy heart failed to function as I stared at Ivory; platinum blonde hair, a body for models, and a smile prettier than the sunset. She looked exactly the way she did. Beautiful, as though she had taken a drink of the water from the Fountain of Youth."It's really you" With a glee for days, she jumped at me and pulled me in a bear hug. I stood there frozen for a minute before I could master the courage to hug her back. "Hi!" my voice was soft, weakened by the sight of my former sister-in-law who seemed to be more than excited to see me. After a short while, she pulled back to take a good look at me. Surprise solidified when I saw tears running down her porcelain, unblemished face."How could you leave without saying anything to me?" she angrily wiped the tears before swatting my arm."Oh my God, I am so mad at you." A mixture of a sob and a chuckle fell from her lips before she threw herself at me once again, knocking the air from out of

Chapter 8: Destiny
DESTINYROYAL POVMy knuckles turned paper white with a tight grip against the steering wheel as I eased a calming breath inside my lungs. One of these days, I was going to lose it. And I mean my career. “Well, let’s just see how long they will survive after this. Luke is the beginning of their end.” I muttered into the earpiece, causing Troy to sigh.“We were going to make millions with that band.” He said defeated, and I hated how demotivated he was with the whole incident. I didn't blame though. Not even one bit. The Trods were promising young lads and we worked so hard to make them who they are. Had they stuck to our side, they would have been the next BTS. But they deemed us so low for them. And it was not the first time. Artists did bail at times, the breach of the contract was not unheard of, and at the end of the day, everyone who thought they could beat me lived to regret it for the rest of their lives. “It’s not like they are the only bands we signed up. We could focus more

Chapter 9: Bad Luck
Bad LuckKENYA POV"You people need to hurry. I got some business to take care of and don't have all day, you know?." I yelled from the entry hallway slipping into my black converses. Anna responded with a yell “coming” before the sound of her hurried footsteps thudded across the corridor. She came spilling down the stairs with Lucious pinned on her hip, her unruly hair pulled in a messy bun on top of her head. She handed Luc to me and shimmied out of her slippers into comfortable trainers. I opened the front door and took a step out the door."I seriously don't understand why you insist on donuts and ice cream this late," I called out stopping to glare over my shoulder at her. “Well, because donuts are yummy?” She huffed before straightening up, then grinned at me. I scoffed at her and shook my head before walking out the door. She stayed behind for a moment to lock the door, then hurried to match her strides with me.“We could simply order them in if you want them that bad. Besides

Chapter 10: She’s Back
She’s BackROYAL POVShe hated me, she had every reason to!And I was a dick because it made me even more determined to get her. Those were the two conclusions I drew for the past two weeks, and they turned out to be the only reasons I got up in the morning. Nothing else seemed to entice me anymore.. not the money; not the fame. But one thing kept ringing in my head and made me sleep beside myself. One thing only! She was back. The woman who had been the beacon of light in my darkest night was back.

Because that was who she was; the queen in my kingdom. She once was, and the years spent without her proved that only she can ever be the queen. Nobody else. “What the hell has got
