Chris’s POVThe hallway was beginning to fill up with people as the party wound down, leaving behind a trail of disheveled glamor and laughter.Emily stood by the exit, her hands trembling as she hastily wiped at her tears. Her mascara had smeared, creating dark streaks down her cheeks. I could see the distress in her eyes and the effort she was making to pull herself together.“Emily, let’s get out of here,” I said, gently taking her arm. “Come with me.”She looked at me, her eyes red and swollen. “Chris, I—I don’t think I can—”“Just trust me,” I urged.We walked briskly down the hall, the muffled sounds of the party fading behind us. I guided her through a side door and as we reached the stairwell, I took her hand, leading her up to the rooftop. The security guards had long since left, and the area was supposed to be off-limits. But who cares? I just had to get her out of there fast. When we got there, Emily looked around, her breath coming in shallow gasps. She looked a bit conf

Sophia’s POVThe wedding party had come to an end, and I couldn’t stop smiling. The night had been everything I’d hoped for, filled with laughter, love, and the warmth of friends and family. As the last guests said their goodbyes and wished us well, Elijah and I stood side by side, our hands intertwined. We exchanged a glance, the kind that said more than words ever could: the real journey was just beginning.Elijah squeezed my hand as we watched the final guests leave. “Ready to check on our little one?” he asked softly.“Yes,” I nodded, my heart swelling with joy and contentment. A while ago, Kayla had mentioned that Reese was getting sleepy, so she and Connor had taken her to the holding room to rest.We made our way down the hallway, our footsteps echoing in the quiet, now-empty venue. When we reached the room, I gently pushed the door open. There she was, my sweet Reese, fast asleep on the couch, still in her pretty gown. Her tiny chest rose and fell with each peaceful breath, he

Sophia’s POV“Wow, this place is unbelievable,” I murmured with awe as I stepped into the villa’s grand entrance.The scent of fresh flowers mingled with the earthy aroma of the vineyard that stretched out behind the house, creating a perfume that was both intoxicating and calming. The villa itself was a masterpiece—rustic yet elegant, with stone walls that seemed to have soaked up centuries of sunlight, and wooden beams that spoke of a time long past. The warm Tuscan sun streamed through the tall arched windows, casting a golden glow over everything it touched.Elijah came up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist, his lips brushing against my neck. “It’s perfect, isn’t it?” he whispered into my ear, his breath sending shivers down my spine.“Perfect doesn’t even begin to cover it,” I said, turning in his arms to face him. His eyes sparkled with the same excitement I felt bubbling inside me. “I can’t believe we’re actually here in Tuscany.”He smiled, that slow, heart-stopping

Elijah’s POVI couldn't believe my eyes when I saw Serena standing there, looking as if she had just stepped out of a high-end fashion magazine. Her hair was different, shorter and chic, but that unmistakable confidence, that self-assured air, was exactly the same. She was in her element, exuding the same effortless charm that had drawn people to her before, including me. She smiled at me in surprise. “Fancy seeing you here, Elijah,” she said lightly. “I’m on vacation, just enjoying a little break from my studies. I had no idea you and Sophia planned to have your honeymoon here.”“Yeah,” I replied, trying to keep my tone neutral, though I could feel the old memories stirring, memories I’d rather leave buried. I glanced toward the boutique, catching a glimpse of Sophia through the window. She was looking our way, and the last thing I wanted was for her to think this was anything like before. I waved at her eagerly, hoping to ease her mind. The last thing I needed was Serena sowing an

Sophia’s POV“Back to reality,” I whispered to myself as I stared at the stack of project files on my desk. The vibrant colors of the folders were a sharp contrast to the soft, dreamy glow that had enveloped me for the past few weeks. I could still feel the warmth of the Tuscan sun on my skin as precious memories of our sweet, eventful honeymoon kept coming back. But now, as I sat in my office, reality settled in, reminding me that the honeymoon was over.Yet, I couldn't help but smile. A genuine, contented smile that seemed to have a life of its own. People had noticed, of course. Even Tina, who rarely paid attention to personal matters, had commented on it just yesterday.“You've got that glow,” she'd said, her eyes narrowing playfully as she handed me another set of files. “Married life suits you.”I had blushed, ducking my head to hide the grin that threatened to spill over. But at the same time, it seemed funny. No one would have said the same thing that first time Elijah and I

Sophia’s POVChris and I had settled in for a lazy afternoon at the Bakers' house, and it felt comforting to be here. I had brought Reese as well because Grandma Evelyn and my mom have been wanting to spend time with her. I could hear her giggles and squeals from the kitchen as she’s making cupcakes with the two. It made me smile. But then, Chris turned serious. “Trevis told me Antoine went to your office.”“Oh, yeah,” I said, frowning. I recounted it to him, and he looked really bothered. “You should be careful,” he warned. “He’s bad news.”I nodded, trying to push down the unease that had been creeping up. “I know. I just... I can't shake the feeling that something's going to happen. But enough about that. Have you heard from Emily lately?”Chris shook his head. “No, I haven’t. But Kayla mentioned something about Emily moving to a different apartment. I don't know much more than that.”A fleeting shadow crossed Chris's face, and I could sense the depth of his feelings for Emily.

Sophia’s POVWhen Reese and I finally made it back home, I took a moment to appreciate our new house. It was a cozy, modern space with large windows that let in plenty of sunlight. The open-plan living area was decorated with comfortable furniture and a few family photos scattered around. The garden out back was lush and green, with a small play area where Reese spent her afternoons lost in imaginative play.Reese darted outside as soon as we got in, her little feet already running toward the swing set and the sandbox. I watched her with a grin, loving the way she laughed. I headed to the kitchen to start on dinner, the aroma of sautéing vegetables and herbs soon filling the air. I was deep in concentration, chopping and slicing ingredients, when Elijah finally walked through the door.“Hey there,” he said, pressing a soft kiss to my cheek as he set his keys on the counter. “How was your day?”“It was good,” I replied, trying to keep my voice casual despite the weight of the conversa

Sophia’s POV“So what was the wedding present and who sent it?” Kayla asked me curiously, her eyes wide as I told her the story. “Apparently, one of Elijah’s associates had his driver drop it off, but we didn’t immediately see the card so it really frightened us!” I said, almost laughing at the memory. “This business partner wasn’t able to come to the wedding and he’d sent the gift late. And by the way, it was a pretty expensive set of towels. I loved it.”“Whew!” Kayla said, putting her hand over her chest. “You’re going to give me a heart attack!” “But the first one, the really scary doll… We still don’t know who sent it.”We were both quiet for a while as we navigated through the racks of colorful dresses in our favorite shop. Then eventually, Kayla rubbed my shoulder as a sign of comfort. “Don’t worry, Sophia. Maybe it’s just a prank.”I shook my head in disagreement. “I think it could really be Julia.”Kayla sighed. “Well, let’s all just be careful…” I nodded, trying to focus
