Her heart thundered as she witnessed Dominic standing at the end of the dance floor now , his face a mask of rage. Before she could react or process anything , Dominic stormed over , shoving Christian aside. “ get your hands off my wife ! “Dinis yelled. His voice loud enough to cut through the music. Christian barely had time to react before Dominic’s fist connected with his jaw , sending him sprawling. The crowd around them gasped and pulled back , creating a circle of shocked onlooker. Evelyn screamed. “ Dominic , stop it ! “But Dominic was already grabbing her arm , dragging her towards the exit. “ you’re coming with me “ He growled , his grip tight and unyielding. He dragged Evelyn outside of the club. Once outside , Evelyn wrenched her arm free. “ what the hell is wrong with you !? “She shouted , tears streaming down her face. “ you have no right to do this what you did with your ex ! “Dominics anger faltered for a moment ,replaced by flicker of regret. “ listen to m
He sat on the edge of the bed , head in his hands , staring blankly at the door. The fight replayed in his mind , each harsh word echoing in the silent room. The sharp edge of his tone , her tear filled eyes. As the minutes ticked by , he felt a gnawing sense of guilt. He picked up his phone and saw the missed calls and the message from his best friend. “ shes not well “His heart sank and a wave of regret washed over him. He cursed himself under his breath , feeling the sting of his own words. He wished he could take back every hurtful thing he’d said or caused her. He stood up , chest heaving , eyes wild with anger. His face was flushed and his hands were trembling. The lamp shattered on the floor , its pieces scattered like fragments of his shattered composure. He had flung the chair across the room , its legs now sticking up at odd angles , a symbol of his frustration. The picture frames that had held their memories lay face down , the glass cracked and splintered. Clothes wer
——————————————Evelyn sat curled up on her bed , the once cheerful room now felt like a prison. The curtains were drawn tight , blocking the summer sunlight , casting long , somber shadows across the floor. Her phone buzzed occasionally with messages from concerned friends but she ignored them all. Each notification felt like a reminder that she no longer felt connected to. Her family walked on egg shells around her , exchanging worried glances but unsure how to break through the barrier she had erected around herself. Evelyn’s mother hovered outside the door , knocking gently. “ Evelyn , sweetheart , you need to eat something “Her voice trembled with a mix of concern and desperation. There was no response from inside. At dinner , the family sat around the table , the empty chair glaringly conspicuous. They picked at their food in silence , the clinking of utensils the only sound in the room. Her younger brother , usually so full of energy , seemed subdued , casting anxious looks
DOMINIC ....I cursed holding her unconscious body in my arms. I hurriedly scooped her up and rushed out of the room. She felt lighter than the feather. I sprinted down the stats and out of the front door , her family following behind. My hands trembled as i fumbled the keys , finally getting her into the passenger seat and speeding towards the hospital. My heart beta accelerated as I drove as fast as i could to the hospital. At the hospital , nurses and doctor quickly took Evelyn from my arms , whisking her away in the emergency room. I stood there , my mind numb with fear. I didn’t want anything to happen to her. Soon , her family reached and I noticed Sam and lilah followed by Alex. We all waited for the doctor to come out and tell us about Evelyn. About what felt like eternity , a doctor approached the anxious group. “ shes not well “He said gravely. “ shes extremely weak and severely malnourished. Her body has been under immense stress. We’re doing everything we can but
———————————————The room buzzed with a gentle , relieved energy as Evelyn’s family and friends gathered around her hospital bed. Dominic sat beside her , carefully feeding her spoonful of soup. Evelyn smiled weakly but genuinely , a hint of color returning to her cheeks. The warmth of her loved ones filled the room , their chatter light and comforting. Her mother recounted a funny story from Evelyn’s childhood , drawing laughter from everyone. Her best friend , Lilah chimed in with playful jabs , making Evelyn to chuckle. The sound of her laughter , albeit faint , brought a wave of relief to Dominic and everyone else present. It was a small smile of hope , a glimmer of the vibrant Evelyn they all knew and loved. As night fell , Evelyn’s family and friends reluctantly decided to head home , promising to return first thing in the morning. They hugged Evelyn gently , exchanging soft words of encouragement before leaving. Dominic remained by her side , his hand clasped with hers , thei
————————————————Evelyn lay on the bed , her breathing even and deep as she slept. The room around her was dimly lit , casting long shadows on the walls. The unfamiliar scent of the place permeated the air , a mix of antiseptics and something she couldn’t quite identify. Slowly , Evelyn began to stir , her eyelids fluttering open. She blinked several times , trying to clear her vision. The room came into a hazy focus, and she realized with a start that she was in a place she didn’t recognize. Panic surged through her , but her weak body felt heavy , weak. She tried to sit up , a harsh cough escaping her lips as she reached for a glass of water on a small table nearby. Her hands trembled , knocking the glass over. The sound of it clattering to the floor seemed to echo in the silence. Footsteps approached swiftly and a shadow moved into her line of sight. A figure bent down , picking up the glass and refilling it. Evelyn’s vision was too blurry to make out any details but she knew ,
The room was dimly lit , the faint glow from a small lamp casting long shadows on the walls. She blinked her eyes open , her vision blurry and her head throbbing. Disoriented , she tried to sit up but her body felt heavy and weak. Every movement was a struggle but she managed to prop herself up on her elbows , glancing around the unfamiliar room. The metal bars on the window sent a chill down her spine. She pushed herself further , swinging her legs over the edge of the bed but when she tried to stand , her legs buckled beneath her. Panic set in as she realized the door was locked. She stumbled back to the bed , gripping the edge of the bed tightly. Gathering all her strength , she called out , her voice hoarse and weak. “ help! Is anyone there ? “Her pleas echoed off the walls , unanswered. She tried again , louder this time , desperation fueling her strength. “ help ! Please someone ! “The sound of footsteps approaching made her heart race. The door creaked open , and she look
The heavy drapes allowed only slivers of moonlight to cast eerie shadows on the walls. The atmosphere was thick with tension, an unsettling quiet enveloping the space. Mateo stood nervously by the bed, his eyes fixed on her with a mix of desperation and longing. His youthful face was flushed, and his hands trembled slightly as he took a hesitant step towards her.“ Evelyn ,” he began, his voice barely a whisper, “I can’t hide it any longer. I love you.”Evelyn’s eyes widened in shock, her breath catching in her throat. “Mateo, no,” she stammered, moving back, her hand instinctively moving to cover her chest as if to shield herself from his words.But Mateo, emboldened by his confession, reached out to her. “Please, listen to me,” he pleaded, trying to close the distance between them.Before he could touch her, Evelyn’s resolve hardened. With a swift, decisive motion, she slapped him hard across the face. The sharp sound echoed in the room, a stark contrast to the oppressive sile
Life had finally begun to settle into a comforting routine. Lilah and Alex were flourishing in their newlywed bliss, Kylie and Caleb were happier than ever, and Dylan and Kacy had started dating, their relationship blossoming. Even Sam and Jack, who had always had a bit of tension between them, were found kissing, much to everyone’s surprise. Sia and Ethan had an undeniable connection but stubbornly refused to admit it.Evelyn and Dominic, too, were finding their rhythm again. Their lives had been filled with chaos and fear, but now, with their twins Dante and Dimitri, they were experiencing a calm, loving domesticity.Evelyn lay in bed, the soft light filtering through the curtains casting a warm glow on her and the twins. She was naked, holding Dante close while Dimitri snuggled on her other side. The boys were content, their tiny hands gripping her fingers.Dominic stood at the door, leaning against the frame with a smile on his face. He watched his wife and sons, his heart swell
Evelyn’s heart raced as she sent the text to Kaia, proposing a meeting. The reply came quickly: a simple agreement to meet at an abandoned building on the outskirts of the city. It was a trap, she knew, but one they had meticulously planned for. This had to end once and for all.In the living room, the atmosphere was tense but resolute. Dominic pulled Evelyn into a protective embrace, pressing a tender kiss to her forehead. “We’re going to end this tonight,”he whispered, his voice filled with determination and love. “Stay safe, okay?”Evelyn nodded, her resolve matching his. They moved to the nursery, where their twins slept peacefully. Evelyn and Dominic each kissed their sons, lingering for a moment, drawing strength from their innocence.“Mommy and Daddy will be back soon,” she whispered, her voice cracking slightly with emotion.Stepping outside, they were joined by Alex, Caleb, Jack, and Sam. Sam gave Evelyn a reassuring smile, his presence a comforting reminder of their str
Evelyn gently lowered Dante and Dimitri into the warm bath, her movements careful and tender. She watched as their tiny bodies relaxed in the water, their innocent eyes looking up at her with trust and love. But her heart was heavy, the threat looming over her family weighing down on her.Tears began to fall silently from her eyes, mixing with the bathwater. The fear of someone targeting her precious twins consumed her thoughts. She was so lost in her worries that she didn't notice Dominic enter the bathroom.He moved quietly behind her, wrapping his strong arms around her waist. Startled, Evelyn gasped, but his familiar embrace quickly calmed her. She turned her head slightly to look up at him, her tear-streaked face filled with anguish.Dominic pressed a gentle kiss to her temple. "I promise you, Evelyn, I will protect our family at any cost. No one will harm our boys."His words were a balm to her troubled heart. She nodded, a small, grateful smile forming on her lips. "Thank
Evelyn sat comfortably in the bedroom, the soft pastel walls creating a soothing atmosphere. She gently cradled her twins, Dante and Dimitri, to her chest, their tiny hands grasping at her as they fed. The quiet hum of the room was interrupted only by the occasional contented sigh from the babies.Dominic stood nearby, his expression distant and troubled. He watched Evelyn with their sons, his love for them evident, but the worry in his eyes was unmistakable. Evelyn noticed his demeanor and softly called his name. “Dominic?”He looked up, snapping out of his thoughts, and she signaled for him to come closer. He obeyed, leaning in to peck her lips gently before kissing each of his sons on their tiny foreheads.“What’s wrong? Why do you look so stressed?” Evelyn asked, her voice filled with concern.Dominic shook his head, attempting a smile. “It’s nothing, Evelyn. Don’t worry about it.”Evelyn frowned, knowing him too well to be fooled. Before she could press further, there was a k
The sun was setting, casting a warm, golden glow over Evelyn and Dominic’s home as they arrived with their newborn twins, Dante and Dimitri. The driveway and front porch were filled with family and friends, eager to welcome them back. Balloons, streamers, and a banner that read “Welcome Home, Evelyn, Dante, and Dimitri!”decorated the entrance.As the car pulled up, everyone cheered and clapped. Dominic carefully helped Evelyn out of the car, her legs still weak from the ordeal. Kylie and Ethan rushed forward to take the twins' car seats, each one beaming with pride and excitement.“Welcome home, Evelyn!” Lilah called out, her voice filled with joy.Evelyn smiled, feeling overwhelmed by the love surrounding her. “Thank you, everyone. It’s so good to be home.”Seeing Evelyn’s difficulty in walking, Dominic scooped her up into his arms effortlessly, carrying her across the threshold. “I’ve got you,” he whispered, kissing her forehead.Inside, the house had been transformed into a
Evelyn's hands gripped the edges of the hospital bed, her knuckles white from the effort. Pain surged through her body in waves, each contraction more intense than the last. Her breathing was ragged, and beads of sweat formed on her forehead. She let out a pained scream, her voice echoing down the sterile hallways.In the waiting area, friends and family had gathered, their faces a mixture of anxiety and anticipation. Lilah, Alex, Jack, Sia, and even Ethan and Kylie were there, exchanging worried glances each time Evelyn’s screams pierced the air. The tension was palpable, each of them silently willing her strength and comfort.A nurse opened the door to Evelyn's room, allowing Dominic to enter. His heart raced as he approached her bedside, taking her hand in his and squeezing it gently. "I'm here, love," he whispered, his voice filled with concern and reassurance. "You’re doing amazing."Evelyn’s eyes met his, and despite the pain, she managed a small, grateful smile. "Dom... i
Evelyn winced slightly as she shifted her weight, a reminder of the lingering pain from the previous night. But today was about joy and celebration, not her discomfort. The hotel buzzed with activity as everyone busied themselves with preparations for Lilah and Alex’s wedding. Despite the chaos, Evelyn found herself at Alex's side, knowing he had no family of his own to rely on.Alex stood nervously in front of a full-length mirror, adjusting his cufflinks for the hundredth time. Evelyn watched him with a fond smile, holding up the wedding outfit she had carefully chosen for him. "I think this will look perfect on you," she said, handing him the suit.Alex took the outfit, his anxiety momentarily replaced with a grateful smile. "You really think so? I’m not sure about the fit."Evelyn nodded reassuringly. "I got it tailored to your size. Trust me, you'll look amazing."As Alex changed into the suit, Evelyn arranged the final touches, smoothing out wrinkles and adjusting the tie
Evelyn sat on the edge of the bed, her hands clasped tightly in her lap. The room was dim, the only light coming from a small bedside lamp that cast long shadows on the walls. Dominic stood across from her, his posture rigid, and his eyes filled with a mix of anger and concern."Why did you go to see Angelina?" Dominic's voice was low but edged with frustration. He hadn't taken his eyes off her since she walked into the room, and his intense glare made her feel like she was under a spotlight.Evelyn took a deep breath, trying to steady her emotions. "I had to see her, Dominic. I had to know if she was okay.""You had to know?" Dominic's voice rose slightly, his irritation evident. "Do you have any idea how dangerous that was? You didn't tell me anything, you just went behind my back!"Evelyn's frown deepened, her own frustration bubbling to the surface. "I didn't go behind your back to hurt you. I went because I needed to. She's my friend, Dominic. I couldn't just sit here and d
Evelyn sat in the cozy living room, her eyes fixed on the window as the world outside moved at its own pace. The sun cast a gentle glow across the room, highlighting the warm tones of the wooden furniture and the soft, inviting cushions of the sofa. She couldn't shake off the thoughts swirling in her mind, especially when the name Angelina surfaced. If Dominic had killed Mateo, Matthew, and Lucian, where was Angelina?Her contemplation was interrupted as Dominic entered the room, his presence immediately comforting yet bringing a new wave of questions. He approached her with concern, sitting down beside her, his eyes searching hers for any sign of distress.Evelyn turned to face him, her expression a mix of curiosity and worry. "Dominic," she began, her voice steady but insistent, "what happened to Angelina?"Dominic's eyes widened slightly, taken aback by the question. He remained silent for a moment, his jaw tightening as he weighed his response. Evelyn's persistence broke t
