"But seriously, Emily, it's not safe for you to be standing out here. I already called your cab company and canceled," Ethan said. I stared at him in disbelief, unsure whether he was lying or telling the truth. Could he even do that? I wondered.

I glared at him, and his mischievous grin widened. "It’s fine if you don’t believe me," he said, walking back to his car. "You’ll just have to wait and find out. I hope you'll still be safe by then." His words made me swallow hard. I glanced around—he was right. It was late, getting darker, and there wasn’t a soul in sight.

"Fine!" I huffed, rushing after him.

"Did you really cancel my cab?" I asked, sliding into the passenger seat. Ethan laughed.

"Of course not. Can I even do that?" he replied, and before I could protest, he locked the door and started driving. I sighed, sinking into the seat, trying to ignore his occasional glances.

"Where are you going?" I asked, noticing he was heading in the wrong direction. "The hotel’s that way," I poin

    My heart stopped. Standing by the door, fists clenched, I was about to step forward, but I froze, catching my breath. "No!" I whispered under my breath, pulling my hands to my chest, willing myself not to give in. Without a second thought, I turned and rushed back to my room. I could feel the pull, the magnetic force that drew me toward him, and I knew if I stayed even one second longer, I would fall back into Ethan’s arms. I couldn’t risk it.As soon as I reached my room, I threw my things into a suitcase and bolted for the airport. I had to leave. I had to get out of this country before I did something I couldn’t take back. I caught the next flight to New York, calling Jason on the way to offer a fake apology, spinning a story about a last-minute client meeting I had to attend. But when I called Jennifer, I told her the truth—about me and Ethan, about everything.Once I was back in New York, I did everything I could to avoid Ethan. His calls, his messages, any places I knew he might

    He moved closer to me, his hands wrapping around my waist as he pulled me in. "Look at me, Emily," he said, gently turning my face to meet his piercing gaze."What do you want, Ethan?" I asked, my voice trembling slightly. He began placing gentle kisses on my neck, each one lingering longer than the last, building an intensity that left me breathless. His lips hovered at the tender spot where my neck met my shoulder, teasing before settling into a soft, sweet kiss that made my heart flutter."No!" I shouted, pushing him away, trying to resist the urge, the longing my body felt. I couldn’t give in, especially not with Jason waiting outside. "I don’t want you!" I yelled, stepping back from his grip. His eyes flickered with hurt, but I couldn't let that stop me."You hurt me, Ethan. You left me broken. You chose your life of crime over us," I reminded him, my voice shaking with the weight of everything I had buried. "And now you expect me to just... get back together with you? Do you thi

    "You what?!" I exclaimed, my eyes widening as my heart began to race. I had heard that Christof died recently, but it was labeled as natural causes, old age. I had no idea Ethan was responsible."How could you?" I took a step back, almost stumbling. Ethan could never truly change, I realized, as the weight of it hit me. Tears began to roll down my cheeks. Why did it feel like a part of me still wanted him to?"You can never change, can you?" I whispered, staring at the man I once loved,the man who was a killer."No, Emily. I have changed. I've buried that part of my life," Ethan said, his voice firm, but I could only stare at him. A mixture of anger and pain surged through me."With how many bodies did you bury that part of your life?" I asked, feeling the crushing weight of his actions pressing down on me."I had to," he said, and I shook my head in disbelief."No. We could have run away together, somewhere far, somewhere they never would have found you." My heart broke as I spoke, w

    "What is this?" I asked, my voice laced with disbelief. I turned to Jason, who shrugged in response. "What is this, Jennifer? Did Ethan use his AI to hack Jason’s TV or something?" I muttered, unwilling to believe what the reporter was saying. Ethan couldn’t have done something so foolish, just because of what I said."Are you serious, Emily?" Jennifer's voice was filled with frustration. "Ethan turned himself in for you!" she yelled, and I shook my head, my heart racing as tears welled up in my eyes."That’s a lie! He’s lying!" I protested, wiping away the tears. "He’s deceiving you, Jennifer. He’s done it to me before. He once told me he’d let Wayne kill him if I wanted, but he was lying!" I said, finding it impossible to believe what was happening."He’s not lying, My father is at the station right now, trying to convince him to stop. Only you can stop him!" Jennifer's words blurred in my mind."I won’t do it. Leave me alone!" I yelled, hanging up the call. As soon as the line disc

    "Is this real?" I wondered. For someone about to have his head cut off, Ethan looked too comfortable."Stop this, Ethan!" I yelled, sitting down opposite him. "Please stop playing games with me. Just let me go, please," I pleaded, hating how easily everything he did affected me."This is me letting you go, Emily," Ethan said, his voice suddenly serious. I had almost forgotten how intense he could get. "I promise you, this isn’t a game. I really want to pay for my crimes."His words tightened something in my chest. "Why?" I asked, my eyes filling with tears. Despite everything, I didn't want the man I loved to end up in prison."Because I deserve it," he replied, his tone all business."No, you don’t," I said, my voice cracking. "You’ve done so many good things too." But Ethan only gave me a faint smile."I love you, Emily. With all my heart. And I really hope you find someone who loves you as much as I do," Ethan said, his words feeling like a final goodbye. "Someone good and kind, so

    Six Weeks Later: The Final Hearing"Please, don't go through with it," I pleaded, my eyes fixed on Ethan as we stood together just before the trial. For almost six weeks, he had refused my visits, and this was the first time I'd seen him. He looked thinner, worn down by time in custody."You look pale. Are you okay?" Ethan asked, concern flickering in his eyes.I shook my head. How could I be? I had been feeling sick constantly, throwing up, dizzy, and suffering from headaches."Are you eating well?" Ethan’s voice softened. "Isn't Jason taking care of you?" He asked and I frowned at the mention of Jason. "We broke up," I whispered, my voice barely audible. After Ethan turned himself in I couldn't bear be with Jason, i was always sad around him, never giving him the time and attention he deserved, hence i had to break up with him, but he didn't takes it well, he insisted he could wait for me to heal and feel better, but i knew from the bottom of my heart that I could never love him.

    “What!” I exclaimed, my eyes widening in disbelief. I turned to Jennifer, who looked just as shocked. “It can’t be,” I stuttered.Jennifer turned her head towards me, confusion etched across her face. “I thought you said you and Jason never…” she wondered.I nodded. “Never,” I echoed, panic rising within me.Jennifer looked back at the doctor, her voice firm and certain. “You must be mistaken, doctor. My friend has been celibate for over three…” Before Jennifer could finish, I cut her off. “I haven’t been celibate!” I whispered, feeling the heat of shame wash over me. My mind flashed back to the afternoon of her wedding, the memory of Ethan flooding back, the heat of the moment, our impulsive connection, and my frantic rush to escape afterward, forgetting the after pill.Jennifer’s expression shifted to one of motherly concern. “Who?” she asked, her voice firm. I bit my lip, avoiding her gaze, my eyes darting to the doctor, who was watching our exchange intently.“Ethan,” I murmured,

    "Are you sure you want to do this?" Jennifer’s voice was soft, yet filled with concern as she held my hand tightly. We walked into the clinic, the sterile smell of the place overwhelming my senses, and my heart raced in my chest. I could barely focus as I tried to take deep, steady breaths. "Yes, Jen," I replied, though the words felt hollow, like I was trying to convince myself just as much as I was convincing her."You just found out you're pregnant," she continued, her eyes searching mine for any flicker of doubt. "Wouldn’t it be better to wait? To think it through a little more?" Her voice was gentle, but beneath it was a plea.I shook my head, biting my lip to keep the tears at bay. "I don’t want to change my mind." The words came out firmer than I expected. I didn’t want to be swayed. I couldn’t be. I needed to do this before the weight of everything crushed me completely."I’ll go in myself," I urged, my voice quieter now. "Wait in the car with Irene and the others." I couldn’

    "What are you waiting for? Don’t leave the poor guy hanging," my father teased, raising his fist in the air. "Say yes," he said, joining the chants. The moment those words left his lips, it felt like the world paused. Everything I had ever wanted, everything I had ever hoped for, was falling into place. My father’s approval was the last piece of the puzzle. With a heart full of joy, I turned to Ethan, my voice shaky with excitement. "Yes!" I said, extending my hand to him. Ethan's smile widened as he slid the ring onto my finger. He lifted me into the air, swirling me around, and I giggled, my heart fluttering with excitement. It was a moment of pure bliss, as though nothing else existed in the world but us. When he finally set me down, I noticed Jennifer walking toward me, a soft smile on her face as she held a beautiful white dress in her hands. "You always said you wanted to get married in your mother's dress," she said, holding out my mother’s wedding gown, now perfectly alte

    "What's going on, Dad?" I asked, my voice rising above its normal pitch, my heart starting to race. "Just come home, Emily. Now!" he yelled, ending the call abruptly. I stared at the phone, my mind blank. What could possibly be the problem? I couldn't think of anything, except maybe, like my mother, my father was sick too. I took a deep breath, dialing Ethan's number to inform him that I was getting on the next flight to Ashville."My dad just called me. He sounded really panicked. I think something is going on, and I have to go home now," I said as soon as Ethan picked up the call."Is everything okay? Did he say what was wrong?" Ethan asked. I shook my head as if he could see me."No, he just said I should come home. I'm going to the airport now to get the first ticket home," I felt the need to keep him informed."Just hold on. I'll call the pilot to take you," Ethan said, reminding me that he had a private jet. "I'll call the driver to take you to the hangar right now," he added,

    "Long story short, his parents aren’t dead," Ethan said as he pulled into one of his mansions."What?" I exclaimed. "Don't shorten the story! Please, tell me the full details," I demanded, watching him park in the underground garage.Ethan sighed and turned to face me. "Wayne’s parents are not dead," he repeated.I narrowed my eyes, waiting for more. "They're at the island," Ethan continued.My eyes widened. "When I took you to the island, I used the opportunity to see them. They've been hiding from Christof because he wanted them dead. They stole from both me and Christof," Ethan explained.I nodded, starting to piece things together. "And the video?" I asked.Ethan smiled. "Faked. It was a video I made to convince Christof they were dead. He was starting to doubt my kills," he said with a shrug."And you didn't tell me? You let me judge you all this time?" I said, feeling a pang of guilt."Your judgment wasn’t far from the truth. I have killed people, Emily," Ethan said, locking eye

    "So, tell me," I said, staring at him, my eyes glistening with curiosity.Ethan smiled. "A very important person owed me a favor. When Rose called, I decided to cash it in," he said.I raised an eyebrow, intrigued. "Who is this very important person who could easily turn a death sentence into nothing?" I wondered aloud.Ethan chuckled. "That’s my little secret," he teased, and I smiled."But," he added, "it wasn’t exactly changed from a death sentence to nothing. Someone else took the blame."My eyes widened, and I shot him a sharp glance. "An innocent man took the blame for you? That’s not fair!" I scolded."I wouldn’t call him innocent," Ethan replied casually, his tone so nonchalant it made me roll my eyes."I thought you said you’ve changed," I huffed, folding my arms across my chest."I have changed," Ethan insisted, but I just rolled my eyes again."Then tell me exactly what happened," I demanded, noticing he was only giving me snippets of the story. My eyes stayed fixed on him,

    "Please, let's be a family," Ethan pleaded, kneeling before me and pulling out the ring, the same ring he had proposed with over three years ago. I watched him, a weak smile tugging at my lips. "I don't think this is the best place to propose," I said softly, glancing around the hospital room. "Besides, the floor isn't exactly sanitary. Please, get up." I said everything except what he wanted to hear."Well, answer me so I can get up," he replied, a smile playing on his lips. I glanced over at Jennifer, who nodded, urging me to say yes. I looked back at Ethan, my sweet Ethan, still on his knees."I love you," I said slowly, "and I would love to have a family with you. But I can't marry you." The words felt heavy as they left my mouth. I helped him to his feet, but I could see the hurt in his eyes."Why not, Em?" Jennifer’s voice cut through the silence that followed my answer."Marriage is... too heavy," I explained, feeling the weight of my father’s disapproval bearing down on me.

    "Then don’t do it," Jennifer urged softly, her voice steady but filled with concern. I shook my head, tears streaming down. "I have to," I whispered, my voice breaking. "I don’t have enough love to give them at the moment. They deserve more than a broken mother," I thought to myself. The nurse, standing nearby, remained silent, her face professional yet kind. She quietly placed her Doppler aside and handed me a tissue to wipe my tears. “You can head back to the doctor’s office,” she instructed gently. Jennifer and I both nodded, and we made our way down the hallway, my heart heavy with each passing moment.As we got to the doctor's office, we pushed open the door without knocking, only to stop abruptly. Another patient was seated inside. “Oh! Sorry,” Jennifer exclaimed, starting to close the door, but the doctor’s voice cut in. “No, Ms. Sanders, come in,” the doctor urged, his tone serious but also welcoming. I hesitated at the door, reluctant to walk in or speak about my choice
