The Billionaire Instant Twins Echoes of Doubt
The soft glow of city lights crept through the curtains, casting a faint, restless shimmer across Calla’s bedroom. She lay there, staring up at the ceiling, her heart heavy and her mind thick with thoughts that wouldn’t let her rest.She’d made the call to Drake—she’d told him she was ready to marry him, even if it meant doing it quietly, in a courthouse, away from the judgment of others. But now, alone in the dark, every choice she’d made felt sharper, more uncertain.Marriage. The word felt monumental, almost crushing.“This is forever,” she whispered to herself, barely audible in the silent room, her hand instinctively coming to rest on her stomach. A new life was growing there—a part of her and Drake, tied to them both forever.The thought should have reassured her, given her strength. But all she could think about was Xavier’s voice, his warnings echoing like distant thunder.Xavier had said Drake was dangerous. Reckless. He’d thrown around words like “untrustworthy” and “unstabl

The fluorescent lights hummed, cold and indifferent, casting a sterile glow over the courthouse. Calla shifted on her feet, eyes darting around the impersonal space. The distant murmurs and rhythmic tap of keyboards felt jarring against the racing thoughts in her head. This was not how she’d imagined her wedding day.She had dreamed of soft music, flowers, and a celebration, but here there was only the stark finality of bureaucracy. No vows. No promises. Just a clipboard and a legal contract. Yet, despite the lack of ceremony, a pulse of excitement surged within her. This was freedom.Her fingers curled tight around the strap of her purse as she glanced at Drake. His broad frame, imposing in a dark suit, was still and distant, lost in thought. Her heart fluttered. He wasn’t her salvation, not in the way she had once imagined. But today, he was here, and that was enough.She looked down at her simple white dress—no veil, no lace, just clean lines that grazed her knees. She’d chosen it

The car slowly came to a stop outside the gates of Villa Azzura, its tires crunching over the gravel driveway.Calla peered out the window, her heart pounding as she took in the villa that was to be her new home. It was a charming, modest house tucked into the hills, far removed from the grandeur she had left behind at her brother’s estate.The villa wasn’t the kind of luxury she had expected—there were no marble floors or expansive halls, no gold accents or crystal chandeliers. It was simple, with a warm, rustic feel that made it look well-loved but not extravagant. The kind of home that felt like it had stories to tell in its creaky floors and soft, weathered furniture.As they approached the front door, Drake’s hand, firm and steady on her arm, helped her out of the car. His presence felt distant like a shadow lingering just beyond her reach.She had imagined this moment for so long—the moment she would finally be with Drake, in the place where they would start their life together.

Calla had pictured this moment as the culmination of their love story, a celebration of their bond. Instead, she felt a chasm growing between them—one she couldn’t explain but one that weighed heavily on her chest. The love, the tenderness, the connection—all of it seemed like an illusion, slipping further and further away with each passing moment.The bedroom was simple—nothing extravagant, nothing like the rooms she had seen in magazines or on Pinterest, filled with luxurious silks and endless space. Instead, there was a large iron-framed bed, its beige linens muted and plain. The room had a calm, almost somber feel, with muted walls and soft lighting, but it felt hollow. Empty.Drake closed the door behind them with a soft click, the sound reverberating in the thick silence that filled the room. His movements were slow and deliberate as if he were trying to stay in control of something that was slipping from his grasp.Calla stood frozen in the center of the room, her heart hammeri

But Drake was already stepping toward her, his eyes dark, his gaze intense and unreadable. There was no tenderness in the way he approached her, no softness in his touch when his hands slid to her waist, pulling her closer.His grip was tight, unyielding as if he was trying to claim her, to take something from her that she hadn’t yet given.Calla’s heart skipped a beat. This wasn’t right. This wasn’t how she imagined it would be. She could feel the panic rising in her chest, threatening to spill over, but she couldn’t breathe.His hands felt rough, his movements quick and unrelenting, pushing her backward until the back of her legs hit the edge of the bed.“Drake, wait,” she gasped, trying to steady herself, trying to hold on to whatever small amount of control she had left. “This isn’t—this isn’t what I thought it would be like.”He didn’t respond, only leaned in closer, his breath hot on her skin as he kissed her fiercely, hungrily. But there was no tenderness, no softness—just raw

Her hands found his shoulders, her fingers digging into the fabric of his shirt, as if she could hold onto anything to remind herself of who she was.But it was slipping away. The love she had imagined, the connection, the care was all being replaced by something darker, something primal.Drake didn't seem to notice. Or if he did, he didn't care. His lips were on her neck now, his teeth grazing her skin with a possessive growl.He was relentless, moving like he was trying to break her, piece by piece. Calla wanted to scream, to fight back, but the fear and confusion held her in place, a prisoner inside her own body.The kiss deepened, and she could feel the difference in his touch. It wasn't about her anymore. It wasn't about them anymore. It was about his need to claim, to dominate, to make her feel the weight of his control.And despite the panic bubbling in her chest, despite the storm of emotions crashing inside her, her body responded to it. She hated herself for it. She hated ho

Calla’s breath came in shallow gasps, as though the air itself was fighting her, choking her with the memories that she couldn’t outrun. She pulled her knees closer to her chest, the coldness of the floor seeping through her thin nightgown, but it was the ice in her veins that really froze her.Why didn’t I see it?The question spun in her mind, like a dull, relentless ache, but the truth was too painful to face. She had seen the signs—she had ignored them, convinced herself that love could fix anything.He had been kind before marriage. Gentle. Sweet. And in her vulnerability, she had clung to that promise, convinced that his soft words could build the life she had always wanted. A family. Stability.But now, the weight of it all—the lies, the manipulation, the gaslighting—felt like a blanket suffocating her, pressing down until she couldn’t breathe.She remembered how he would rip her clothes off like she was nothing, throwing her onto the bed with such force that she couldn't breat

Xavier sat in his dimly lit office, fingers drumming rhythmically on the desk, the sound a staccato of tension that echoed in the otherwise quiet room.His gaze, though directed out the window, didn’t register the sprawling city below; his mind was too consumed by the storm of thoughts swirling inside.The weight of everything—the twins, the letter, the unanswered questions—pressed on him like a vice. His world had always been meticulously controlled, and now? Now, it felt like it was unraveling beyond his grasp.His manager, John, stood quietly before him, waiting for his next instructions.“Find out everything you can about Zane and Alana,” Xavier finally spoke, his voice low but edged with authority.“I want to know everything about their aunt, Leila. Where did she go? Why did she leave them with me? And what makes her think those kids are mine? This whole thing… it doesn’t add up. I need to know the truth. I want answers. John nodded, his pen already moving over his notepad. “Und

The Billionaire Instant Twins Waves of Love
The evening sky was painted in breathtaking hues of orange, pink, and soft gold as the sun dipped lower toward the horizon, casting a warm glow across the tranquil beach. The vast canvas above them looked like something out of a dream—streaks of color melting into each other as if the heavens themselves were sighing in contentment. The ocean responded with grace, its waves dancing rhythmically to the quiet lullaby of the wind, their foam-tipped crests glowing beneath the fading light.A gentle, salty breeze rolled off the water, brushing against Bella’s skin like a whispered caress, tousling her hair and kissing her cheeks. She stood barefoot, toes curled slightly into the cool, soft sand, her heart full and yet still not quite ready to believe the peace that now wrapped itself around her like a blanket. It felt surreal—like standing inside a moment suspended in time, one she never wanted to end.She glanced to her side and found Xavier there, his tall frame motionless yet somehow anc
The Billionaire Instant Twins A New Beginning
The journey back home from the hospital felt surreal for Bella. Everything she’d been through—the pain, the fear, the moments when hope felt like a fragile thread—lingered in her chest like shadows. But now, as she stepped through the familiar doorway of her home, the scent of lavender and vanilla greeted her like a long-lost friend. A wave of warmth and safety wrapped around her like a soft blanket, and for the first time in weeks, her shoulders relaxed.She was finally home.Before she could take another step, two small bodies rushed toward her, wrapping her in tight, desperate embraces."Mommy!" Zane cried, his voice trembling with joy as he buried his face against her stomach. His little arms clung to her as though he was afraid she might disappear again."We missed you so much!" Alana added, her voice catching with emotion as she clung to Bella’s arm, her cheek pressed tightly against her mother's sleeve.Tears spilled freely from Bella’s eyes. She knelt slowly, her body still te
The Billionaire Instant Twins Love Finds Its Way
A soft beeping echoed in the hospital room. The first thing Bella felt was warmth—her body felt light, her mind hazy as if she had been floating in darkness for a long time. She blinked slowly, her eyelashes fluttering as the world came back into focus. The sterile white walls, the dim glow of the bedside lamp, the faint scent of antiseptic… she was still in the hospital.Her throat was dry, and her body ached, but when she shifted slightly, she realized—she was awake.A soft gasp escaped her lips as she registered the sound of footsteps rushing toward her. The next second, she felt a warm, strong hand grasping hers.“Bella…?”She turned her head toward the familiar voice, and her gaze met Xavier’s. He was standing beside her bed, his dark eyes filled with a storm of emotions—relief, joy, pain, and something deeper, something raw and unguarded.Tears welled in Bella’s eyes as she whispered, “Xavier…?”He exhaled a shaky breath, his hand squeezing hers tightly as if afraid she would di
The Billionaire Instant Twins A Heart That Can’t Let Go
The hospital room was shrouded in a heavy silence, broken only by the steady, rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor that echoed like a soft heartbeat in the otherwise lifeless space. The sterile scent of antiseptic clung to the air, mixing with the sterile chill that only hospitals seemed to possess. Outside the window, the city lights flickered like distant stars, indifferent to the quiet war of emotions unfolding inside.Xavier sat slumped in the chair beside the bed, his broad frame hunched forward as if the weight of the world rested on his shoulders. His fingers trembled slightly as they traced slow, tender circles on the back of Bella’s hand, which felt cold and fragile in his grasp. Her skin, once warm and full of life, now looked ghostly against the clinical white sheets. Her chest rose and fell in small, barely noticeable breaths—each one a silent thread tethering her to life.He stared at her face for a long time, memorizing every detail—the gentle curve of her cheek, the wa
The Billionaire Instant Twins Unspoken Truths
Calla lay in the hospital bed, her body still sore from the wounds Drake had inflicted upon her. The sterile scent of antiseptics filled the air, and the rhythmic beeping of the heart monitor echoed softly in the quiet room. Though her body ached, her heart felt lighter. She was safe now.Harold admitted her here. She knew he saved her—not out of love or guilt, but to prevent yet another crime from being added to Drake’s list. Although he wanted to take her to Xavier, Calla's rough condition and rotting wounds forced him to take her to a hospital for first aid.After getting admitted in hospital, Harold asked her where she wanted to go and to whom he should call. As he had to leave. Then Calla called Xavier and the staff at the mansion told her that he was already in the hospital.The staff also told her that Bella underwent a cesarean and she was in a coma.She knew it wasn't the right time to Calla Xavier. So, she called Logan instead and asked Harold to leave and let Logan take car
The Billionaire Instant Twins Between Life and Death
The cold hospital walls closed in on Xavier as he stood outside the operation theater, his heart pounding violently in his chest. The long, agonizing wait made every second stretch endlessly, filling the air with suffocating dread. His fists clenched as he paced the hallway, his mind racing with prayers and fears.Finally, the door swung open, and Bella’s gynecologist stepped out, her expression heavy with exhaustion and concern. She removed her surgical mask and exhaled before speaking.“Mr. Xavier, the surgery was complicated.” Her voice was calm yet filled with an underlying gravity that made Xavier’s stomach drop.He swallowed hard. “Is Bella…?” His voice cracked, unable to finish the question.The doctor gave him a reassuring yet solemn look. “She has given birth to a baby boy.”For a moment, the world stood still. A son. His son. The weight of those words pressed down on his chest like an invisible force.But before relief could settle, the doctor continued.“However, there were
The Billionaire Instant Twins The Breaking Point
The heavy sound of boots stomping across the marble floor sent a chill down Jessica’s spine. She turned around sharply, her breath catching in her throat as she saw him—Drake.He stood in the doorway, his clothes disheveled, his hair a mess, and his face twisted with rage. His eyes were bloodshot, and his grip on the gun in his hand was firm.Jessica felt the blood drain from her face. "Drake, what are you doing here? The police are looking for you!"Drake ignored her. His furious gaze was locked on Harold. His father stood in the center of the living room, his expression tense but composed."You let her go!" Drake snarled, stepping closer, his hands trembling around the gun. "You betrayed me, Dad! You helped that traitor escape!"Harold exhaled slowly, his heart pounding. "I did what I had to do, Drake."Drake let out a bitter laugh. "You HAD to do it? You HAD to betray your own son?" His voice cracked with hysteria. "Do you even realize what you've done? That woman ruined everything
The Billionaire Instant Twins A Father's Regret
The apartment reeked of stale alcohol and the acrid sting of cigarette smoke, a suffocating blend that clung to the peeling wallpaper and worn carpet. Dim, flickering light from the streetlamp outside seeped in through the dusty blinds, casting long, distorted shadows across the cramped room like silent ghosts. The air was thick—heavy with despair.Harold stepped in cautiously, the floorboards creaking beneath his weight. His chest tightened, every breath catching like a stone lodged in his throat. A gnawing dread coiled in his stomach.There, sprawled out on the tattered, sweat-stained sofa, lay Drake—motionless but alive. His chest rose and fell in shallow, erratic breaths. One arm dangled limply over the edge, fingers barely touching the half-empty bottle of whiskey resting against the floor. His eyes were open but glazed over, pupils dilated like black holes, and his pale face was slick with sweat. The stench of vomit and intoxication clung to him like a second skin.Harold’s eyes
The Billionaire Instant Twins At the Hospital
Xavier burst into the hospital, shouting for a doctor, his voice hoarse with desperation and fear. His heart pounded like a war drum in his chest, his breath coming in sharp, ragged gasps as he clutched Bella tightly in his arms.A team of nurses immediately rushed to them, urgency etched into every movement. They swiftly guided him toward a gurney, gently easing Bella from his arms. The moment his hands let go of her, a hollow ache opened in his chest. He hated the distance, even if it was just a few feet.“Please—please help her,” he whispered, but the nurses were already at work, checking her vitals, lifting her limp body with clinical precision. Her face was pale as snow, lips tinged with blue, blood staining her nightgown like a warning.He stood frozen as they wheeled her away, the sound of squeaking wheels echoing in the sterile corridor like gunshots. The air around him felt too bright, too white, too loud. Everything blurred at the edges.The gynecologist, Dr. Hayes, arrived
