For the first time in what felt like forever, I had a nice dream.

It was soft and warm, filling me with a sense of peace I didn’t even realize I’d been craving. In that dream, I had a family—a good family, one that felt like home. Laughter echoed around me, hands held mine, and I didn't have to put on a mask to be loved. For once, I felt whole. I was happy. If this was heaven, I wanted to stay here forever.

But slowly, that warmth began to slip away from my grasp. My chest tightened as I tried to hold onto the fragments, but they faded. And I was alone in a dark room, with no sunlight or warmth. Cold, mocking faces stared down at me, enjoying my pain as they kicked and stabbed me to the point I wished I was dead.

I begged, cried, prayed—but nothing happened. I was left to rot in darkness, with no one to turn to. No one to hug and love me.

I should just give up. There was no use fighting for something that would eventually be taken away from me.

    AstridA month had passed since I had woken up from a coma. And every night, without fail, I’d dream. The dreams were always the same, or at least they felt the same. I could remember feeling connected, then heartbroken, like something precious had been lost.And when I woke up, with my cheeks damp with tears, I was met with the same empty feeling, like I was staring into a black void where my past should be.The woman who sat by my bed every day, the one who called herself my mother, would look at me with gentle eyes full of worry, as if she knew something I didn’t. As if she was praying my memory would never return.I wondered what kind of life I had lived until now. I knew a few things about myself—just fragments, really. I was told I went missing when I was twelve years old. And they claimed they had been looking for me ever since.Every time I asked her if she knew anything about my life, about who I was living with before they found me, or about the father of my unborn children,

    12| Aurora Six years later “Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We’ll be beginning our descent shortly. Please fasten your seatbelts and prepare for landing.” The pilot’s voice crackled through the speakers, pulling me out of my concentration. I blinked, my fingers pausing over the medical analysis displayed on my tablet. With a sigh, I pulled my earbuds out, letting the world filter back in around me, and stretched my neck from side to side to ease the stiffness that had settled there during the long flight. It had been a grueling fourteen hours in the air, most of which I’d spent poring over patient files, analysis reports, and clinical research data. I looked out the window, the clouds thinning to reveal the city below. How many years had it been? Six years? Yes, it had been six years since I left the country. I could still remember when I first brought it up and how everyone reacted. My mother was obviously against it, and so was Noah. They were so cli

    Aurora Sometimes I asked myself why I couldn’t walk away when I saw someone being mistreated. Was it pity, or just basic human conscience? No, I knew it ran deeper than that. The anger that flared up inside me wasn’t simple empathy—it was something rooted in my own scars, my own memories of helplessness that I couldn't remember. "What do you think you're doing?." I took a step forward, looking each of them in the eye with a calm, cold expression. "Were you about to raise your hand on him and get away with it?” The woman’s eyes widened as she turned to look at me, clearly startled. For a moment, silence fell over the area, the tension thick in the air as she processed the fact that someone had actually stopped her. “Who the hell are you?” she spat, yanking her hand back and straightening her posture, trying to regain her composure. “How dare you touch me? Do you know who I—” “Oh, save it,” I replied calmly, cutting her off. “Is that line supposed to scare me? Because I don’

    Aurora “Is something wrong, Mr. Lawson?” I asked, my tone deliberately casual, though I could see the fear taking root in his eyes. “I thought I was going to get banned.” I could practically hear the rapid beating of his heart as he stared at me, wishing he could dig a hole and crawl inside it. But I looked at him with a cold, indifferent expression. Oh, he’d wish that hole was more than six feet under. “What? Cat got your tongue? I thought you could destroy my life with just a single phone call?” I grinned, eyes turning colder. “Or, maybe I should do the honors of destroying yours.” He swallowed hard, his hands suddenly trembling. “I-I… I didn’t realize…” His voice was barely a whisper now, stripped of its previous arrogance. “I thought you were… I mean, I didn’t expect…” He trailed off, unable to complete his sentence. Everyone was fully invested in the scene now, forgetting they had flights to catch. Even the men trailing behind him looked surprised—they must have never seen

    Damien I leaned my back against the wall, tilting my head indifferently as I watched the scene unfold. My gaze darted between the two girls who looked utterly humiliated, and the man who was pale, shaken, his fury barely contained. And then, there was her—walking away with a calm, unbothered grace that was almost… mesmerizing. She moved through the crowd with her head held high, completely unaffected by the commotion she’d left everyone in. A faint smile tugged at the corner of my mouth, an unfamiliar sense of interest flickering to life as I watched her go. Interesting. When my private jet malfunctioned, I had to book an entire plane to return back to the USA. I had no idea I would be entertained. I allowed myself a moment to study her as she walked away, her back straight, movements calm and nonchalant. Who would have thought my rival's younger sister would be this interesting. "Mr. Damien," a voice interrupted my thoughts. My assistant, Jason, stood beside me, his ey

    The room seemed to grow colder, the weight of his words settling like a stone in my chest. I didn’t move, didn’t react, I was too stunned to speak. The whole world seemed to blur around me. What? I must have heard wrong. He's dying? Dying? What kind of stupid statement was that? Was this another attempt of his to set me up with another woman? If this was a joke, I swear to God, no one would be laughing after this. “Say that again.” I growled, my tone sharper than I intended. “I’m not in the mood for jokes.” “Damien,” he began, taking a deep breath, his gaze shifting to the family portrait on the wall—the one taken years ago, before the accident that changed our lives. When he looked back at me, his eyes were tired, almost haunted. “I'm not joking. I'm sick. I don't have much time left. And I can't leave this world knowing you have nobody by your side. This is my last wish, and I hope you can grant me before my death.” I frowned, something unsettling stirring at the back of my

    Aurora “Lord” I muttered, looking down at my plate, already piled high with food, yet my mother’s hand appeared once again, a new dish in tow. “Here, eat more.” She insisted, her voice cheerful, as she placed another serving of casserole on my plate. “Mom,” I said, laughing softly. “I already have enough to feed a small army. I'm good.” She waved her hand dismissively, moving on to the boys, who were already looking wide-eyed at their plates. “Nonsense! The boys are growing. They need more strength!” She ladled another spoonful of mashed potatoes onto each of their plates. “If you told me you were coming earlier than expected, I would have prepared everything for you in advance. I told the chefs to prepare what little they had.” Are you kidding me? This was little? Back in London, the boys and I only ate a quarter of what was on the table. “Grandma,” Finn mumbled, casting me a helpless look. “I don’t think I can eat all of this.” “Sweetheart!” she replied, ruffling his

    Aurora I hopped out of my car with an apple wedged between my teeth, practically sprinting towards the front doors of the hospital. My mother had been relentless this morning, shoving breakfast plates at me with that classic guilt-inducing “you need to eat more” look. I had to tell her to wake the boys up and feed them instead. I barely managed to escape after grabbing the apple, feeling her gaze burning into my back as I fled. Sorry boys. I had to use you both in order to escape. But, it was worth it. The massive hospital loomed before me, all sleek glass and steel, and I tried to make myself look halfway composed as I approached. I was supposed to start work last week—the day after I arrived. But my mother was so adamant about me resting with the boys that I had to stay home for a few more days, which I really didn't like. “Hello, do you know where my office is?” Still chewing on the apple, I nodded a quick greeting to the receptionist. She looked at me excitedly, as if she

    Aurora I stared at him in disbelief. What just happened? Did he just catch the knife with his bare hands? Did he just save me from getting killed? At the moment when the knife was about to make contact with my body, I thought about a lot of things. A lot of people that meant so much to me—people I couldn't leave behind. But unexpectedly, he saved me. Nathaniel saved me from being killed. Blood dripped from his palm onto the floor, but he didn’t even flinch. Why? Why would Nathaniel do that? "Who the hell are you?" The man shouted, bringing me back to the present. Nathaniel straightened, his bloody hand still clutching the knife, and pushed me behind him. He stood tall, his presence commanding the room as he looked the man directly in the eyes. "I am Doctor Nathaniel. I don’t believe we’ve met, but I was the surgeon who performed your daughter’s operation." The man’s eyes widened, his face twisting with rage. "You bastard! You're the person that killed my Juliet." he shouted, y

    Aurora I stared up at the massive hospital in front of me, The building was both inviting and intimidating. It was slightly larger than my brother’s hospital, which was not surprising, given its history. This place had been around for decades, building its reputation as not just a place of healing but also one of hope. Known for its work with patients who couldn’t afford treatment, it stood out in a world where healthcare was often ruled by greed. But, more than anything, this hospital was known for him. Dr. Nathaniel Davis. The surgeon everyone adored. The media’s golden boy. The man who seemed to embody perfection every time he appeared on TV or in interviews, his kind smile and composed personality made people swoon. A family man, a husband material and the perfect father. Trust me, I could say more, after all I had done my research. I ran a hand through my blonde hair, letting out a quiet sigh. We agreed to meet after that day and I was the one who set the time and th

    X The photos spread out before me were like pieces of a puzzle I’d been working on for years. I picked up the one on top, running my thumb over her face. A stepping into the hospital, carrying herself with grace. Such a confident woman. But then, there was the other one. Her on the road, clutching her chest in panic. Vulnerable. Weak. A side of her the world rarely saw. I chuckled, the sound low and dark as it echoed in the empty room. Spinning lazily in my chair, I plucked another photo from the desk. This one was different—her holding her kids. That smile of hers, soft and full of love. How quaint. How perfectly motherly. But then there were the others. Damien, standing beside her. I scoffed, tossing that photo back onto the desk. Then there was Alexander, all charm and smiles, looking at her like she was the center of the goddamn universe. That one? I crumpled it, tossing it without a second thought. “Fools,” I muttered, shaking my head. “They don’t deserve her.” I leaned

    Damien I stepped into my grandfather’s room, the faint aroma of freshly brewed tea filling the air. He sat beside the window, gazing out at the hospital grounds below. Patients and their families walked back and forth, some chatting, others lost in their thoughts. From this view, you could see it all—life continuing in its chaotic rhythm. "Don't you think that was too much?" my grandfather said without turning around. “You're too hard on the poor girl. She was waiting for you all this time.” I waved my hand dismissively, walking over to the chair next to him. “She waited for nothing,” I said indifferently, settling into the seat. He glanced at me briefly before setting his cup of tea down on the small table beside him. Without a word, I reached for the teapot and poured another cup, sliding it toward him. He nodded his thanks, and for a moment, the room was silent except for the faint clinking of porcelain and the muffled sounds from outside the window. I stared at the cup of tea

    Damien The elevator doors slid open with a soft chime, then began to close again when no one stepped inside. I leaned back against the wall, hands tucked into my pockets, watching the numbers tick down on the screen. Another stop. The doors opened, revealing a group of people standing outside, murmuring amongst themselves. But no one moved to enter. They avoided my gaze. Some shuffled awkwardly to the side, while others stared intently at their shoes, pretending not to notice me. They’d wait for the next one, just like everyone else. The elevator felt ten times colder, but it wasn’t the temperature—it was me. I clenched my jaw, my composure slipping as I ran a hand through my hair, attempting to calm the rage threatening to destroy everything in my path. The soft act I’d put on in her office—the restraint, the civility had shattered the moment I stepped out. I was back to who I truly was: cold, ruthless, and distant. But this time, there was something different. An

    Aurora Did I just feel bad? Me? Aurora Williams? Impossible. Why would I feel bad when I didn’t even do anything wrong? I sighed inwardly, crossing my arms as my thoughts spiraled. But why do I hate the idea of him hearing about another man bringing me home? It wasn’t like I owed him anything. I didn’t. I wasn’t his girlfriend, his wife, or even anything close to it. So why was my chest tightening at the idea? Why did I feel this ridiculous pang of guilt? I must’ve hit my head on something. Or maybe… maybe it was the way he kissed me. The way he made me feel. That overwhelming sensation, the pleasure that still lingered on my skin like an imprint. Was it really that good? I bit my lip, heat crawling up my neck. No. It wasn’t just good. It was incredible. It was enough to completely scramble my brain, apparently. Because here I was, getting worked up over a man who wasn’t even mine. And for the first time in my life, I wasn’t sure if that fact bothered me… or sca

    Aurora A date? With him? Why? He didn’t seem like the type of man who went on dates. He seemed more like the type of man who took what he wanted and left without a second thought. “Aurora,” Damien said, his deep voice snapping me out of my spiraling thoughts. I blinked, my eyes refocusing on him. He tilted his head slightly, studying my expression. “You don’t want to?” he asked, his tone calm but curious. “I’m not asking you to marry me this time. I’m asking you to go out with me. Isn’t that why you were angry last time? Because I was being too straightforward?” His words pulled me back to the day he had asked me to marry him like it was the most normal thing in the world. I swallowed, trying to push the memory aside. But this man…he seemed different. His usual arrogance was still there, but there was something else now. Something softer, like he was trying to go slow, trying to meet me halfway. It didn’t match the version of him I thought I knew. I hesitated,

    Aurora I opened my mouth to respond, but no words came out. What could I possibly say? Thank you for giving me the best orgasm of my life? I pressed my lips together, embarrassed even by the thought. Instead, I did what I usually did in uncomfortable situations—I kept quiet. I avoided his gaze, letting my eyes dart anywhere but at him, pretending that the tension between us wasn’t suffocating. Deciding it was time to salvage what little dignity I had left, I stood up from the desk. Or at least, I tried to. The moment my feet touched the floor, my legs buckled beneath me. A rush of warmth spread through my body as I realized I couldn’t feel my legs properly, not after everything he’d just done to me. I stumbled, my balance giving out, but before I could hit the ground, his arms were around me. “Careful,” He muttered, holding me by the waist, and pulling me against him. I looked up at him, my heart pounding wildly in my chest. His eyes locked onto mine, and for a

    Aurora “Then don’t make a sound.” I stared at him, wide-eyed, unable to believe what he’d just said. What was wrong with him? No, what was wrong with me? I could feel the panic rising in my chest as Noah’s voice echoed from the other side of the door, louder this time, more insistent. But Damien didn’t stop. He didn’t even flinch. Instead, his fingers moved faster, deeper, sending jolts of pleasure and panic through me. I gasped softly, my hands clutching at his shoulders, torn between pulling him closer and pushing him away. Why wasn’t he stopping? Why did he look so calm, so unaffected, like the fact that my brother was just outside the door didn’t matter at all? And worse—why was I letting him? My breath hitched as another wave of pleasure rolled through me, my body trembling under his touch. I could feel his gaze on me, watching every flicker of emotion that crossed my face. My body responded to him. Heat pooled low in my belly, coiling tighter and tight
