Raina stood in the cold drizzle outside the café where they always met, her arms wrapped around herself. She had been waiting for almost twenty minutes, but now she wasn’t sure why she bothered. The text from Kevin still glowed on her phone screen:“Let’s talk. It’s important.”She had sensed something off about him for weeks. Kevin had been distant, his once-loving gaze now flitting past her as if she were invisible. When the café door finally swung open, Kevin stepped out with an apologetic smile that didn’t quite reach his eyes.“Hey,” he said, shoving his hands into his pockets.Raina’s heart clenched at how familiar and yet foreign he felt. “What’s going on, Kevin? You’ve been acting weird for weeks.”Kevin sighed, avoiding her gaze. “Raina, I’ve been meaning to talk to you about… us.”A chill raced down her spine that had nothing to do with the rain. “Okay,” she said cautiously.He hesitated, then blurted out, “I think we should end things.”The words hit her like a slap, but s...

7 years laterAvery flicked her gaze toward the playpen, where her twin boys, Neal and Noel were jumping and laughing, surrounded by colorful balls. She smiled softly, her heart easing when she saw they were safe and happy. They’ve had a very busy and hectic week with unpacking and trying to adapt to their new environment, and it was a relief that they could have fun even if it was for just a few hours.Turning her attention back to the phone pressed to her ear, she continued her conversation with Julian.“That’s what I think, Julian,” she said, her tone quiet but firm. “I’m at the mall to meet the realtor, and hopefully, he’ll have a house that’s a better fit for us this time.”“Good,” Julian replied on the other end. “You can’t stay at your grandfather’s estate forever. That place isn’t a home—not with your sisters around. They’re toxic, Avery, and you know it.”Avery sighed, her fingers tightening around the phone. She knew Julian was right. Her grandfather had welcomed her back a

Asher’s POV A lot of things had gone wrong that fateful night, seven years ago.First, Asher was supposed to meet an investor, Laurel Mitchel, who he assumed had just flown into the country. They were scheduled to meet at the lounge, but after hours of waiting, he had been directed to meet her in her hotel room instead.Secondly, for some idiotic reason, someone had spiked his drink. Asher could only recall taking half a glass before everything became a haze. His senses were dulled, his judgment impaired, and instead of calling his driver to take him home, he had made the reckless mistake of heading to Laurel’s room.Whatever had been slipped into his drink had stripped him of his self-control.That night, Asher had entered the room expecting Laurel Mitchel, but instead, he found Raina Ross, lying there with that dazed look on her face. And in the clouded, heated moments that followed, they had slept together.The only good thing about that disastrous night was that it had been the m

Avery's POVAvery had been so lost in her conversation with Asher that she had failed to notice the presence of another person in her house or even when he had walked in.It wasn’t until Julian’s deep, commanding voice cut through the air that she realized they were no longer alone and she was in the arms of a man she had just met few days ago. Thankfully, Asher had released her almost immediately, realizing how far he had gone himself.Julian shifted on his feet. “I asked a question, Asher. What are you doing here?” he asked, even before she could say anything.He stood just inside the doorway, with his body protectively close to her. Julian's sharp gaze locked onto Asher with a hint of suspicion and barely hidden hostility. As they glared at each other, It was as if they were talking to each other through their minds and from the looks of things, the conversation was not a friendly one.Julian has always been protective over her and the boys, and it was not a surprise to her that h

Avery’s POV For the first time, Asher hesitated. His gaze softened, and something flickered behind his eyes; something raw, almost vulnerable. But then, just as quickly as it had appeared on his face, it disappeared almost immediately.“You’ll find out soon enough,” he said in a mysterious tone. “But not tonight.”He took a step back, finally breaking the intense standoff between him and Julian. His gaze lingered on Avery for a moment longer before he smirked. “Get some rest, Avery. We’ll see each other again soon.”And just like that, he turned and walked out, leaving a heavy silence in his wake. She should have stopped him, but her legs failed to move. She somehow believed that they would see each other again.The moment the door was shut, Avery let out a breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding, her hands trembling slightly at her sides. She turned to Julian, her mind racing with questions.“What was that?” she demanded. “What did he mean?”Julian ran a hand over his face, ex

Avery’s POVThe Wellesley estate was more than just a home to the Wellesley family. It was a grand, architectural masterpiece that had stood for generations. It was a symbol of power, wealth, and legacy.When Avery had woken up from her coma seven years ago, she had returned to the Wellesley home. But for some reasons unknown to her, she had never felt like it was home to her. Like she belonged there.She was never comfortable staying there, especially knowing how it’s occupants felt about her. After a while, she couldn’t take it anymore and had left with the boys for the states.The grand halls and sprawling gardens whispered stories of past generations, of names that held weight in high society. The towering marble columns, and crystal chandeliers hanging down from the ceiling spoke of old money and deep-rooted tradition. The Wellesley family was by no means a small family. They were well known and their influence ran wide. Wellesley publications was a media power house that was ru

Avery’s POV She turned back to Vivian, lifting her chin. “I do belong here. And whether you like it or not, I’m not going anywhere.” She said with a firm voice.Vivian’s smile disappeared almost immediately. Her fingers curled slightly, as if itching to claw at something. She had to know that no matter what she said, Avery still had a place in the family.Vivian sighed loudly. “You’re getting awfully bold for someone who doesn’t have real power in this family.” She warned. “You’re nothing but an inconvenience we’ve had to tolerate, and I wouldn’t mind nipping the bud.”The crowd around them grew, hushed whispers filling the space as they watched the scene unfolding. It was now late to back down, the guests would think that grandfather Wellesley daughter in-law was a weakling. She wasn’t.Avery clenched her jaw, forcing herself to remain composed. “You don’t get to decide that.” She spat.Vivian’s eyes flared with irritation. “Watch yourself Avery…” she added.Before Avery could respo

Avery’s POVInside the grand ballroom, the party was in full swing as guests congratulated grandfather Wellesley. Avery stood near a table, watching them give him different sorts of expensive gifts and the broad smile that appeared on his face whenever he received their gifts.She curled her fingers lightly around a crystal glass of water which she had opted to take after remembering that she has to drive her boys back home after the party. She would never drive under the influence, especially not when her sons were in the car.The boys clung to her, Neal gripping the hem of her dress while Noel pressed against her side. They both refused to leave her sight, their earlier encounter with Vivian still weighing heavily on them.They were not scared, contrary to what others might think. She had pushed Neal earlier to find other kids and play with them, but Neal had refused, saying that he wanted to stay with her. They could sense her unease and wouldn’t leave until she was okay.Avery exh

Avery’s POVThe night air was crisp as Asher led Avery out of the grand ballroom, his grip on her wrist firm yet careful. She thought about her boys and where Nolan must have taken them to, but instead of being worried or alarmed, she felt calm. She had that feeling that they were fine and in good hands.It worried her that she was feeling this way and trusting someone who the only information she knew about him was found online. Hell, they had just met, but then, she remembered his face when Asher had knelt in front of the kids and spoken to them. If the boys had felt uncomfortable, she would have sensed it and stopped Nolan from taking them.The muffled hum of murmuring guests faded behind them as they stepped onto the stone pathway leading into the Wellesley estate’s gardens. It was either that Asher had been in the estate before and even been given a full tour, or he had the blueprint of the place, because he walked like someone who had an idea of where they were going to.Avery

Avery’s POVAvery eyed the cloth suspiciously, then glanced up at him. “What am I supposed to do with this?” She asked, confused to why he was giving her a handkerchief.He gave her a pointed look, then nodded toward the deep red stain on her dress, that was now looking like a permanent symbol. Like it had come with the dress in the first place.It took Avery more than a second to realize what he meant. “Seriously?” she asked, incredulous.Asher didn’t answer. He just held the handkerchief there, waiting for her to take it from his hand.With an annoyed sigh, she snatched it from his hand, muttering under her breath as she dabbed at the stain. From the corner of her eye, she caught the way his lips twitched; like he was fighting back a smirk. She really couldn’t believe that he cared about her dress when the damage had already been done.“Clean it up,” he said simply, nodding toward the stain on her dress. She frowned, glancing down at the deep red splotch marring the delicate fabric
