Ethan’s gaze softened as he kissed her, slow and tender. “Come on,” he whispered against her lips. “I have one more surprise.”

He stood and offered her his hand. Rose hesitated momentarily, but then took it, allowing him to lead her upstairs. When they reached the door, Ethan stopped and turned.

“I need to cover your eyes, babe” He whispered in her ear making Rose let out a giggle,

“What are you up to?”

“Trust me.” He smiled.

Rose was curious to see what he had planned, even though she wondered when he had prepared it all because he had been by her side the entire month.

He worked from home even though she insisted she was now better. He didn’t take his eyes off her.

Stepping behind her. She felt his hands gently cover her eyes, and his comforting scent surrounded her as he guided her forward as the door opened...

Ethan’s hands slowly dropped from her face, and his voice, smooth and deep, whispered in her ear, “Open your eyes.”

Rose opened her eyes to a breathtaking sight.

    Eight years ago, had anyone told Rose that Ethan would be on one knee declaring his undying love for her, she would have laughed and asked them to see a doctor.What was meant to be a one-sided love turned into a love story overnight. Rose had tears falling down her face as she held back a sob.Not the kind of reaction you’d expect but she had so many emotions in her heart and she didn’t know where to begin from. When she lost her parents, no other family member wanted to take her in. She suffered until Marie found her and took her in. She hoped she’d give her children a different story. Safety and a family such that even if anything happened to her they’d still be cared for. That worry kept her up at night but now, seeing how Ethan had put together their small family lifted all the worry off her shoulders. She wasn’t alone anymore. She had a man by her side. A man who was going to be her husband and her children's father. And not just husband on paper, but in reality too!“Babe?” He

Hoping the first two had been wrong.Her emotions were overwhelmed and she didn’t know what to do. Questions started running through her mind and the more they came, the worse she felt.Won’t Zane feel like I’m trying to trap him? She thought as she heard her phone Buzz.Sighing heavily, she threw the test in the bin and decided to make an appointment with Ian so he could advise her.“Hello?”“It's lunchtime, honey. Where are you?” Zane’s voice came on the other side sounding excited and in a great mood like always.“I can’t do lunch today. I’ll take a rain check.” She said, brushing her blonde hair off her face. “Why? Are you getting tired of me?” Zane sounded worried and she laughed.“No, I just have an appointment at the hospital.” She responded.“Oh, is something wrong?” He asked, his voice full of concern.Natalie bit her bottom lip, not knowing

    “Oh my God!” Rose exclaimed, her hand flying to her mouth as she looked at her friend with wide eyes. “Are you serious?” Her excitement bubbled over, making her sound like an overjoyed teenager.Natalie nodded, nervously licking her spoon of ice cream. “I’m so scared,” she admitted.“Girl! With Zane?” Rose shrieked in disbelief.“I know! I don’t even know how it happened, Well I know we had sex, still have- Fuck, you get what I mean!” Natalie said, her voice laced with anxiety. “Are you mad?”“Why would I be mad? I’m so happy for you!” Rose pulled Natalie into a warm hug, a giggle escaping her throat. “You’ve been such a great aunt. I know you’ll be an amazing mother! Oh my goodness, this is the best news! Have you told him?”Natalie pulled back from the hug, a heavy sigh escaping her as she looked down. “Nope. I don’t know how he’ll react. We are not even exclusive yet.”It was the following Sunday night when Rose called Natalie to check-in. Natalie and Zane had been taking turns bab

    “Mason?” Rose stood shocked at the door.It had been so long since she had seen him. It was almost as if he just disappeared into thin air. She tried to reach out to him several times but his line wasn’t going through.“You look so shocked. Did you forget about me already?” He smiled at her, his Asian eyes shutting slightly as he leaned against the door frame folding his arms against his chest“That’s rich coming from someone who disappeared like a total ghost. Where have you been?” Rose asked, genuinely worried about him.“Can I at least come in?” Rose hesitated. Knowing Ethan would drop the kids off from the mall anytime soon. Instead of being at his mansion, he asked them to wait a month so he could renovate the entire place. He didn’t want Rose to remember the pain he put her through but Rose didn’t want to leave the house and buy a new one either. So, to make both their ideas work, he decided to give it a whole new face.Seeing the hesitation on her face made Mason’s heart drop.

    “Hello, little angel!” Mason stood to lift Daisy in his arms. “What is he doing here?” Ethan asked, his blood boiling and all he could see was red. “Hello, Uncle Mason! Daisy help me take the toys upstairs.” Caleb said.Ethan walked over, crossed the room in three strides, and stretched his arms for Daisy to jump to him. She smiled and went into his arms before he carefully placed her on her feet. She was over the moon and oblivious to what was going on as she took the toys with Caleb upstairs. Once they were out of earshot, Ethan turned to face Mason,“I asked why you're here.”Rose noticed he was angry and stepped in with a nervous smile, “He just came to visit us.”“This time?” Ethan raised a brow.“Do you have a problem with it?” Mason stood and met him head-on. The two never met eye to eye and always hated each other's guts. But after what Ethan did to Rose, Mason hated him even more and felt he was the one she deserved and not him. “You're asking if I have a problem with y

    “What the hell is wrong with you two?” Ian chuckled as he sipped on his whiskey. Ethan glared at him and went back to staring at his phone. “Just call her and say you're sorry.” Ian laughed, finding the whole situation ridiculous. “Or join me into one-night stands. Less complicated.”The three had met after Zane called that he needed help. But when they met, they noticed that he had blood on his shirt and his mood was bad. “What makes you think I'm the one who fucked up?” He growled.“Well, you've been staring holes into that phone. It makes me wonder what happened. Did you kill someone?”“He wouldn't be that careless,” Zane answered tiredly. “What the fuck is wrong with man, spit it out so we can handle my issue. I don't have much time left.”“I think she has feelings for Mason,” Ethan said.Zane and Ian exchanged looks. “Damn.. you do have to work your ass off ey?”“Or are you leaving her-” “Fuck no! I'd never leave her. She's my wife and I'm about to make sure everyone knows

    “Mum, I'm an adult. Where I slept is none of your business.” Natalie sighed as she walked up to her office.Rose had a trip with Mason and it would take a week for them to come back so she assured her she would look after the kids though they both knew Ethan would watch over them like the protective father he was. “You’re really rude, aren’t you? You think just because you earn more than us then it gives you the right to be so uptight?” Kate grabbed the phone from her mother.“I don't earn more than you, I earn all the money for this family so dear Kate, I think you should reconsider getting a job or going to school. Working extra hours has been taking a toll on -”“I can’t believe you! You’re kicking me out?”“She’s what?” Her mother grabbed the phone but Natalie didn’t even wait to hear what they had to say and hung up. Blocking the number in the process. She felt easily tired and breathing was getting harder and harder for her. Opening the door to her office, her mood got ten time

    “Natalie, do you need a moment?” Ian's soft voice reached Natalie's ears. But she couldn't move. She remained glued to her seat, her eyes unblinking as she stared into space. A tear ran down her cheeks as everything came crashing down. How was it possible?She felt she didn't deserve it. She felt like the heavens were being so cruel to her. “W..wh..why me?” She choked out. “I'm so sorry. But I'm sure you can try again once your condition stabilizes. It's not the end of your motherhood-”Natalie wiped her tears, her heart cracking in the process as she looked at Ian.“I'm not terminating. Even if I die in the process, I'll keep this baby.”“Natalie, please.”“I’ve lived my life for others. Always sorting out their shit and putting them first.” Tears rolled down her cheeks before she continued, “Not knowing I have been fucking killing myself! You know what drives me crazy?” She laughed but didn't wait for his response, “The fact that none of them are even grateful. This baby is the

    Seventeen years later……“Ethan!” Rose’s voice boomed through the house as she clattered down the stairs, her heels clicking furiously. “We’re going to be late! Daisy and Caleb’s graduation starts in twenty minutes, and you know how she is about punctuality!” she yelled as she tried to fix her left earring. Ethan emerged from the kitchen, tying his tie with a smirk. “Relax, baby. I’m ready, and I already have the car waiting.” He pulled her close before giving her a soft kiss on the lips. They were so in love even after so many years it was surreal. “You’ve been more worked up than they have. Caleb probably doesn’t even give a shit.”Rose huffed, brushing a stray hair back into place. As she created some distance so she could think clearly, “Worked up? It’s not every day our surviving triplets graduate college! And you know Daisy will never let me hear the end of it if we’re late. As for your uptight twin, I’ll pull him by the ear if I have to. He will attend.”“Mama Bear is Fesity.

    One year later…The sun hung low in the sky, casting a soft, warm glow over the cemetery as Rose, Ethan, Natalie, Zane, and their children made their way to the gravesite. The day was peaceful, with a gentle breeze, as if the world had stilled in respect for the family reunion.Rose held a bouquet of white lilies, her fingers tracing the edges of each petal. Beside her, Ethan wrapped a comforting arm around her shoulders, offering silent support as they stood before the headstones of her parents. Caleb and Daisy held hands, their little faces observing the scene unfold as they watched their mother, while Zane and Natalie held baby Arabel, who gazed curiously at her surroundings. Marie held Riley, Rose, and Ethan’s baby girl who was seven months old. It was Rose’s parent’s memorial but this time she wasn’t alone. She took a deep breath, kneeling down and placing the lilies gently in front of the graves. Her voice was soft as a tear slipped down her cheek.No matter how much time pass

    “Zane.. what..” Natalie’s voice trailed as she covered her mouth in shock.Zane smiled as he held her gaze. “Natalie,” he began, his voice full of excitement like he couldn’t wait to wife her and just be alone with her, “I fell for you the first day I laid eyes on you. Your fire and focus were the first to flip my heart. Your beauty was a bonus and Damn, I’m not complaining because my little firecracker is so fucking gorgeous. You showed me there is more to life than just living. You’ve been my strength, my joy, and my reason to keep fighting. Winning your heart has been my biggest flex but I promise you, even if it took me ten years, I would have kept trying and proving myself until you opened up for me. You’d probably fight me, but it’d be worth every broken nose I’d get.”Natalie laughed, her fingers clinging tightly to the bouquet.Zane opened the box, revealing a beautiful ring with a sparkling diamond, Her eyes widened when she realized it was the ring she helped Rose make a m

    “You’ve been my rock, my best friend, and my greatest love. You’ve made me a better man, and there’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do to make you as happy as you’ve made me. Today, I vow to stand by you, to protect you, and to cherish you for the rest of my life. I promise to love you more deeply each day, through every joy and every challenge. You, and the beautiful family we’ve created together, are my everything.”A few tears slipped down Rose’s cheeks, and she bit her lip, smiling through the emotion that welled up in her chest. She took a steadying breath as the officiant turned to her, and Ethan’s hands gently held hers, grounding her.“Ethan Sinclair, father of my children and King of heart, ” she began softly, her voice a gentle whisper that grew stronger as she spoke. “When I first met you, You were a pain in my ass.” The guests laughed.“I’ve loved you even before I knew what love was. You hated it, I could see through you but that made me want to heal your broken pieces

    The sun was shining brightly, casting a warm, golden glow over the outdoor wedding venue giving it a magical look as rows of white chairs lined the green lawn, decorated with different kinds of flowers except the Roses, the look creating an aisle that looked like a path straight out of a fairytale. At the altar, Ethan stood in a tailored black suit, his expression a mix of excitement and nervousness as he waited for his bride. His hands were clasped tightly together, his breath catching as the music began to play softly, signaling Rose’s arrival.Daisy came first, She looked cute in a beautiful white dress and her hair was made into two cute ponytails, small earrings, and a bracelet made by Rose specifically for her. She had on white socks which had a small lace at the top and white shoes with a small heel. She gave a wide smile as she walked while tossing the peony petals on the white long carpet. The crowd of guests smiled and were all in awe as they watched her little figure walk

    Two months later…“This feels weird,” Rose said as Natalie tied the ropes behind her dress.“Why do you feel weird? Because you’re in a wedding dress while pregnant with two kids and another adopted baby?” Natalie teased making Rose laugh.“Very nice way of making me feel so much better!” Rose mocked. Natalie smiled warmly, her hands resting gently on Rose’s shoulders as she turned her around to face the mirror. “Look at you, Rose. You’re absolutely glowing,” she said, her voice emotional, “This little angel is surely doing you justice, I looked like I had swallowed balloons when I was carrying Arabel.”Rose laughed, “You exaggerate too much. You looked stunning, it’s no wonder Zane always lost his mind over you.” Her throat felt dry as the emotions she was trying to hold back came crashing down.It had been two months since Natalie woke up and made a great recovery. Ian was still observing her closely but she was better.Arabel, who was born prematurely at seven months had also reac

    “A little scared, but yeah, I’m ready.” He responded with a small smile.Agness nodded as she held the door open for him. He stepped inside, his heart pounding as he approached her bed. Gently, he took her hand in his, feeling the faint warmth of her skin beneath his fingers. He swallowed, a knot forming in his throat.She looked like she was just asleep and not on the verge of death.“Natalie,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. “It’s me. I’m here.”Her hand was still, but he held on, willing her to feel his presence. “You’re not alone, baby. I’ll be here every step of the way. I’m not going anywhere. We have a little girl, I heard you named her Arabel. It’s a very beautiful name, and she’s waiting to meet you, and I know she’s going to love you as much as I do.”His voice cracked, and he blinked back the tears threatening to fall. “You have to come back to us. I need you. Arabel needs you. We’re not complete without you.” He lifted her hand to his face as tears ran down his

    One week later…“CONGRATULATIONS, IT’S A GIRL!” Agness smiled at Zane as she delivered the news. He had woken up two days after Ian saved him, stabilized four days later, and was now able to stand. “Can I see her?” Zane asked, feeling like his chest was stuffed with emotions. “As soon as you get better and you’re able to walk again, I’ll take you to her. We can’t bring her out yet because she’s premature and has to be observed.” Agness explained kindly.“Congratulations, man. Welcome to fatherhood.” Ethan tapped his shoulder.“Congratulations, Zane.” Rose smiled, but her smile didn’t reach her eyes. Everyone surrounded him including Ilet his mother and Henry.“You’re finally grown, my sweet prince!” Ilet let out a cry making Henry groan because he knew she was about to start being dramatic.“Mum,”“Don’t mum me, young man. You’re in so much trouble! Just wait until you get better. You’re lucky I was too preoccupied with Arabel to hit you.”“Arabel?” Zane asked arching his brow in c
