Mrs. Nicole’s POV

The café was quiet except for the soft hum of classical music playing in the background. I sat at a corner table, my fingers idly tracing the rim of my teacup as I replayed the conversation from earlier in my mind.

The man who had approached me had been well-dressed, polite even, but there had been something unsettling about him the way his sharp eyes held too much knowledge, the way his voice carried a weight of certainty.

"Your daughter, Holly, was part of a team. A very dangerous team."

I had frowned at that. I knew Holly had secrets—had always been drawn to the shadows—but I had never imagined my daughter would be involved in something so… calculated. The image of her corpse came to my mind as I struggle bit to let the tears drop, I couldn't imagine, Holly has been an active baby with very sensitive emotions but she managed to cut off the moment she found out something was wrong.

"She wasn’t innocent, Mrs. Nicole," the man had continued, his voice smooth. "And

    Alex’s POVThat bastard!I clenched my fists, suppressing the surge of fury rising in my chest. The audacity. The manipulation. The sheer nerve of whoever was pulling the strings behind this. Why did they want Kelly arrested?.Mrs. Nicole’s eyes were steady on me, but I saw the hesitation in them, the doubt creeping in, the weight of what she had just said."The real enemy isn’t the Black Bullet Clan… It’s the one closest to Kelly."And then, with quiet calculation, she added, “That’s you, isn’t it?, I mean you're her fiance, Kelly is what she is because of you, I know you understand that if she's in danger it's because of you”.I inhaled sharply. “No.” My voice was firm, unwavering. “That’s exactly what they want you to believe, If I were the threat I wouldn't be here with security details on you and asking you to leave so they don't harm you.”Mrs. Nicole studied me, her fingers tightening slightly around the glass she held. “And why would they want me to believe that?”I exhaled, l

    Alex’s POVI watched as Kelly sat on the couch, her fingers drumming nervously against her thigh, her thighs have become thicker. The events of the day had clearly unsettled her, but she was trying to hold it together. I admired that about her; her resilience, her ability to keep pushing forward even when the world seemed determined to break her.After Finn left, we retired to the room and she did her skin routine, not much just some minor cleaning.“I wonder how hard all these must be for Mrs Nicole, she's always so nice, and now she has to be a victim of Holly's decisions, how did they get to find her?” Kelly asked even without turning to look at me.“Trust me Kelly, if I want to know anything about anyone I will, I have the means and resources, it's same as the black bullet clan only that they use people, it's a world of you scratch my back I scratch yours, and what's more scary about them, they call it a brotherhood hence you see his followers doing stupid things even as far as dy

    Alex POV Kelly's eyes were already filled with tears, but she had an irritable look on her face, she gagged, I knew what was coming. I led her to find a bathroom, she was throwing up before we got to the scene.“Clean that up” I told the one of the security that followed us in, motioning to the point Mrs Nicole lifeless body laid.“Atleast check for a pulse or something, she might still be alive”. Kelly said faintly after I gave the order, she didn't want to accept the death, I allowed her to cry as much as she wanted. I could not quite understand how close they were. Or was she just feeling guilty.“Say something Alex, she might have a weak pulse let's call the ambulance” I just stood there looking at her not saying anything, she was grieving. She walked out of the bathroom making for Mrs Nicole's body, but stopped on the sight again. She took a step back and held her stomach, I rushed to her side to hold her from behind.“What's wrong babe? If you are not feeling well we can leave”

    Kelly’s POVI lay on the bed, my head propped against Alex’s chest as I slowly licked the ice cream he’d given me, I wasn't entirely comfortable because I've added so much weight and I always feel like I'm now weighing too much for him to handle. My brain was still reeling from the day’s events, but exhaustion was kicking in fast. I needed sleep desperately. But instead, my mind decided to fixate on the one thing I’d been avoiding.The baby’s name.I don't know why Alex is refusing me to read the letter or not telling me the detailed content, but I know it's something that has to do with me.I glanced up at Alex, who was staring at me like he was trying to mind-read.“What?” I asked, narrowing my eyes.“You’re thinking about that letter,” he said, setting his spoon down.“No, I’m thinking about our baby’s name.” I frowned. “Wait babe, are you thinking about that letter?”“No,” he lied.“Yes, you are, else why was that the first question that came to your mind.”“No, I’m not, I don't j

    Kelly’s POVI stood in front of the mirror, adjusting my dress for the third time. The baby bump had made choosing outfits a mission, but I wasn’t in the mood for anything too tight or uncomfortable today. I need more maternity gowns, I had my routine check-up at the hospital, and as much as I hated hospitals, I knew it was necessary, at least for the baby.Alex was sitting on the edge of the bed, flipping through his phone, looking every bit as relaxed as I was anxious, we just had breakfast, maybe that's why my stomach is bigger, or not, this baby is growing super fast. I looked at myself and smiled, I was becoming a mother!."You know, you're supposed to come with me, right?" I said, turning to him.He barely glanced up. "Come with you where?"I rolled my eyes. "To the hospital. It’s supposed to be me and my partner,that’s you, in case you forgot it helps us bond with the baby on a parent-baby level and makes us more excited and involved in this together.Alex exhaled dramatically.

Today, it felt deafening.Across from me sat a man I had never seen before, yet he carried an air of familiarity that unsettled me. His brown eyes held an emotion I refused to acknowledge, hope. I saw a man who looked like me!. It's true, my mom's son."Who are you?" I asked, my voice devoid of warmth.He didn’t flinch. Instead, he exhaled slowly and met my gaze head-on."My name is Richard Hale," he said. Then, after a pause, he dropped the bombshell. "I’m your brother." The bastard knew!. This isn't mere coincidence.I stared at him, waiting for the punchline. When none came, I leaned back in my chair and let out a short, humorless laugh."I don’t recall having a brother," I said coolly.Richard studied me carefully. "We have the same mother."The words sent a jolt through me, but I didn’t let it show. Instead, I folded my hands on the desk, keeping my ex

    KELLY POV My eyes caught Holly's worried gaze as I took my fifth shot of tequila. She should take a chill pill. I'm not going to pass out on her. We are at Brooklyn's most expensive nightclub, and it's not as if we just got in here by luck. I work here, and they let me take someone with me because I'm a staff.That's why my best friend is here with me, and the main reason is... It's my twentieth birthday! My boyfriend Dain is supposed to be here with us, but he said he had something important to take care of, and I'm guessing it has to do with his mother. That's the only thing important to him apart from me."Kelly, quit drinking. You know I can't handle you when you are drunk. How will I carry you out of this place without any assistance?" She pointed out taking the glass out of my hand as I tried to take another shot."It's a club, Holly; you can ask anyone for help; they will gladly help you; it's a free world; you don't have to worry about anything." I smiled, taking the shot

    KELLY POVEverything was a mistake.My life itself is a mistake, and I don't know how I ended up making another. I quickly snapped out of my pathetic thoughts. "You are awake." He stated the obvious as I wrapped the duvet around my chest: "Yes, but I wish I passed away instead of waking up in a stranger's bed." I huffed, picking up my clothes from the floor while using one hand to hold the duvet on my chest.What am I even hiding? The pervert has seen it all while he was having his fill with me last night.Last night... Where was Holly? Why didn't she stop him? Is she alright?"That's not a healthy thought, Kelly," he said, and I paused too angry to let this go."You stupid jerk! Don't you ever call my name again; in fact, I never want to see your stupid face in front of me, fucking pervert. I should report you to the police." I gritted out, but he seemed so chill, like I didn't just threaten to report him for raping me."You are only mad because you don't remember what happened; you

I could feel the weight of it pressing down on my chest.Finn had been silent for the past minute, his focus split between the road and his phone as he dialed the security detail assigned to Kelly. I watched as his jaw clenched when the call connected.“Talk to me,” he ordered. His voice was sharp, impatient.On the other end, the security agent spoke, his tone clipped and professional.“The plates came back with a name.”Finn didn’t even blink. “Who?”A beat of silence.Then the name dropped.“It’s registered to Mr Evans of The Black Bullet Clan.”Everything inside me went cold.My hands curled into fists, and I forced myself to exhale slowly.

Call it paranoia or gut instinct, but I had learned to trust my gut—it had kept me alive this long. I knI was sitting in my office, casually going through my messages when I decided to check on her. I sent a quick "How's it going?" on WhatsApp.One tick.She wasn’t online.I frowned. Kelly never left messages unread for long unless she was deep in something.I leaned back in my chair and exhaled. I wasn’t about to panic—not yet. I called the security team."Sir, she's okay," one of the guards assured me. "Still inside La Belle Café, speaking with Mrs. Nicole. No issues so far."I nodded, rubbing my temple. "Stay alert. I don’t want any surprises."As I ended the call, Finn walked into my office, holding a tablet. Finn was my head of security, a no-nonsense guy with the charm of a wet sock but the efficiency of a Swiss watch."Boss, we did the routine security sweep of the house," h
