The heavy mansion doors opened with a soft creak, and Logan stepped inside, his tall frame casting a shadow across the marble floor. He had a determined look in his eyes, but underneath, there was a hint of concern. His steps echoed through the vast entryway as he made his way toward the living room, where Zane and Alana were waiting.

Zane, always the one to speak his mind, jumped up from the couch the moment Logan entered. "Logan, do you know Dad has married Bella?”

Logan heard this and became stunned, as he didn't know Zane and Alana had become aware of marriage contract.

“Who told you this?” Logan asked.

“We overhear dad while he was talking to Ember.” Alana said and then she added,

“And she was asking dad to divorce Bella.” Logan was silent. He was trying to process the whole thing.

“Logan, you have to talk to our dad," Zane said urgently, his eyes wide with worry. "He’s going to divorce Bella. Please, make him stop!"

Alana, sitting beside her brother, nodded, her expression soft

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   Torn Between Two Worlds

    The night was silent, save for the occasional rustling of leaves outside Xavier’s mansion. The moonlight shone through the windows, casting long shadows across the room. Xavier sat in a leather chair by the window, his eyes fixed on the dark horizon. His mind was a storm, a whirlwind of thoughts that refused to settle. He had tried to sleep, tried to escape the turmoil in his chest, but his thoughts kept racing, dragging him back to the same questions over and over again.Bella. Ember. Bella. Ember.His mind was caught in a loop, each name pulling at his heartstrings in different ways. Ember had been in his life for so long, they had a history, a connection that he had honored. He had made promises to her, commitments that he had intended to keep, despite how little he truly felt for her. Ember had always been the glamorous, socialite type—the one who fit perfectly in his world of wealth and status. She was beautiful, poised, and elegant. But there was something missing. She didn’t se

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   Lost in the Night

    Xavier sat in his study, the weight of his thoughts pressing down on him. The world outside seemed to fade, consumed by the storm of confusion swirling inside him. He had always prided himself on making calculated decisions, living by reason and logic. But now, every thought was muddled, every choice seemed impossible.He loved Bella—there was no denying that. She had become a constant in his life, her kindness, strength, and selflessness touching him in ways he had never imagined. But then, there was Ember. He had made a commitment to her. His life had been a series of obligations and expectations, shaped by family, society, and duty. What would they say if he chose Bella? What would they think of her? She had no background, no family to speak of. She wasn’t part of his world, the world he had always known and been a part of. Could he really walk away from everything for her?Xavier rubbed his temples, his head aching from the internal battle. The silence in the room was deafening. H

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   Between Fear and Fate

    Xavier walked through the mansion’s hallway, his mind a storm of conflicting emotions. The weight of the events from the previous night still pressed down on him, suffocating him with their intensity. The kiss, the closeness, the unspoken promises that lingered between him and Bella—it was all too much to process.He wasn’t ready to face Bella, not yet. He couldn’t face Zane and Alana either, not with everything that had happened. They’d witnessed the soft moments between him and Bella, and though Xavier had never been one to avoid responsibility, this felt different. The realization of what he was possibly choosing, what he was possibly about to lose, was gnawing at him.As he moved through the house, he heard Zane and Alana’s voices coming from the breakfast nook. They were laughing, their voices high with the energy of children starting their day. Bella’s laughter echoed in response, and it tugged at Xavier’s heart. His heart ached with a bittersweet longing, yet there was somethin

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   The Final Goodbye

    Xavier’s heart raced as he hurried down the hospital corridor, the sound of his footsteps echoing off the sterile walls. The phone call had come just moments ago, and it was all he didn't want to hear: Thomas’s condition was worsening. Come now. Panic gripped his chest, pushing him to run faster. He never expected this—he didn’t expect to feel anything, but now, as he neared the ICU, an overwhelming wave of emotion surged through him.He reached the doors of the ICU, the cold, sterile air enveloping him as he stepped inside. The first thing he saw was the array of machines surrounding his father’s bed—machines that beeped and hummed in a way that felt far too clinical for the life they were supposed to preserve. There, in the center, lay Thomas, his once proud frame reduced to a mere shell. The oxygen mask covered his face, his body pale and frail. His chest rose and fell with each shallow breath, a reminder that his body was fighting a losing battle.“Xavier,” came the doctor’s voice

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   The Bitter Truth

    It had been a week since Thomas's death, and the mansion felt emptier than ever. The air was thick with grief, but there was something else—something Xavier couldn’t shake off. The loss of his father had left him in turmoil, and it seemed like he couldn’t find peace in his own mind. He had spent the days locked away in his thoughts, questioning everything, trying to understand why he had never been able to love his father the way he should have.That morning, Xavier had woken up to an unspoken heaviness. He still hadn’t figured it out, and he wasn’t sure when he would. He had thought that once Thomas was gone, things would clear up, but now that he was gone, all the emotions had resurfaced—the anger, the regret, the longing for something he never got.As Xavier sat in the study, the door creaked open, and Ember walked in. She was dressed in a tailored suit, her heels clicking sharply against the marble floor as she moved toward him. She was as beautiful and composed as ever, but today

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   The Aftermath

    The house felt unusually quiet after Bella left. It was as if the air had thickened, the weight of her absence pressing down on everyone. Ember, on the other hand, seemed to breathe a little easier. She had gotten what she wanted—or so she thought. She walked around the house with a confident, almost smug air, knowing that the storm she had caused had left a ripple in Xavier’s life.She thought now was the time. The time to make Xavier see that she was the one who belonged in his life. She approached him in the living room, her eyes filled with something between desire and determination."Xavier," Ember purred, stepping closer. "Now that Bella’s gone, we can finally have things the way they were meant to be."Xavier barely looked up from his thoughts. His mind was still consumed with the image of Bella walking away. He was reeling from the argument, from Ember’s cruel words, and from Bella’s decision to leave. He wasn’t ready for Ember’s advances. He wasn’t even sure what he wanted."

    Xavier sat at the edge of his bed, the room dimly lit by the fading afternoon light. He had been spiraling for days now—caught in a tug-of-war between duty and desire, between family expectations and the life he truly wanted. Ember's presence, her insistent demands, had made everything worse. But it wasn't just Ember that consumed his thoughts. It was Bella.The way she had walked out of his life, her tear-filled eyes haunting him, had left a gaping hole in his heart. And now, Zane and Alana's distress only compounded the ache. He wanted her back, but the guilt of his commitment to Ember gnawed at him relentlessly.There was a knock on his door. He didn’t need to guess who it was."Come in," he muttered, his voice tinged with weariness.The door creaked open, and Calla entered. She closed the door behind her and stood still for a moment, her eyes studying him. "Xavier," she began softly, "I need to know something."He didn’t look up at her, but he already knew where this conversation

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   The Price of Dignity

    Bella walked out of the small bedroom in Jacob's apartment, feeling the emptiness in her stomach grow with each step. She had barely eaten all day, too consumed by the whirlwind of emotions surrounding her to care about anything else. But now, hunger was gnawing at her, and she hoped to find something simple to prepare for dinner. Her mind was heavy with thoughts of Xavier, Zane and Alana, and the life she had left behind. It was all too much to bear, but she had no other choice than to press on.As she stepped into the living room, she saw Jacob lounging on the couch, flipping through channels on the TV. The sight of him made her stomach twist in a way that had nothing to do with hunger. She knew Jacob wasn’t the kind of person she could trust, but she had no other options. He was family, and she had come to him for help.The moment he laid eyes on her, though, his expression hardened. He immediately turned off the TV and stood up, his voice laced with anger.

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   Unfamiliar Threats

    The soft glow of the morning sun filtered through the windows of Xavier’s office as he sat behind his desk, reviewing documents. The silence of the room felt oddly suffocating today, as if the weight of something unspoken lingered in the air. Just as he leaned back in his chair to clear his mind, the sound of a knock at his door startled him."Come in," Xavier called out, his voice strained, tired.The door creaked open and his lawyer, Mr. Curtis, stepped in with a stern expression. "Xavier, I have something important for you," he said, holding up a letter, its edges slightly crinkled, as though it had been through a lot.Xavier's brow furrowed as he took the letter. "What is this?" he asked, eyeing the envelope, his fingers already starting to feel a twinge of anxiety.Mr. Curtis handed him the letter, his tone serious. "It’s a court summons," he said, taking a seat in front of Xavier's desk. "It claims that a man named James Tyler is asserting that Zane and Alana are his biological

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   Fading Hope

    The car pulled into the long driveway of Xavier’s mansion, its tires crunching against the gravel. Bella sat in the passenger seat, her hands resting over her stomach protectively. Her heart pounded against her ribs, yet her lips remained pressed together in silence. She was home. Or at least, she was back in the place she left to save her dignity.Xavier glanced at her from the driver’s seat, his usual stoic expression giving nothing away. “We’re here,” he said, but his voice lacked warmth.Bella didn’t respond. She simply opened the door and stepped out. The cold evening air brushed against her skin, making her shiver. This house held too many memories—some she wanted to cling to and others she wished she could forget.Before she could take another step, the front doors burst open. Two small figures ran toward her, their cries echoing through the night.“Bella!” Zane’s voice cracked as he threw himself into her arms.“Bella, you came back!” Alana sobbed, clinging to Bella’s dress as

    The heavy sound of the front door slamming echoed through the quiet mansion, and Calla barely glanced up from the book she was reading in the living room. She knew exactly who it was—Drake, stumbling in with the unmistakable scent of alcohol on his breath. He had been drinking again, and she could already feel the tension building in the air.Drake wobbled into the room, his eyes bloodshot, his movements unsteady as he leaned against the doorframe for support. He let out a low laugh, clearly intoxicated. “Calla,” he slurred, his voice rough. “Come to bed with me.”Calla didn’t flinch. She had seen this scene too many times before. His drunken advances, his attempt to control her, to drag her into his world of manipulation and pain. But not tonight. Not anymore.“No, Drake,” she said quietly, her voice firm, unwavering. “I’m not going anywhere with you.”Drake’s face twisted into a scowl. He staggered forward, trying to close the distance between them, but Calla stood up and stepped ba

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   A Life Unexpected

    The sterile smell of the hospital room mixed with the dull hum of machines, creating an atmosphere that felt too suffocating for Bella to bear. She lay on the hospital bed, a drip running through the vein in her hand, her body still weak from the sudden collapse earlier. Her eyelids fluttered open, and her vision was blurry for a moment before it cleared. As she took in her surroundings, the reality of her situation hit her like a ton of bricks.She left Xavier's home, because he couldn't defend her. She thought that after the night of intimacy something had changed and she had gained some importance in Xavier's life. But the way Ember insulted her and Xavier remained silent, it made her realize she was wrong. She had no place and value in Xavier's life. So she left his house to safeguard her dignity. But even after leaving that place, she couldn't get peace. As Jacob didn't let her do so. He kept on pinching her ego and self respect so badly that her body and mind couldn't bear it an

    When Xavier finally arrived at the apartment complex, he parked his car hastily, barely taking the time to straighten it. His breath was shallow with anticipation as he jogged up to the door of Jacob’s apartment. He knocked sharply, his mind already running through the words he would say.Jacob opened the door, a lazy smile on his face that quickly turned into a frown when he saw Xavier standing there, looking serious and determined."Xavier?" Jacob said, his tone cautious. "What are you doing here?""I’m here to take Bella back," Xavier said firmly, his voice leaving no room for argument. "Alana’s sick. She won’t take her medicine unless Bella’s here. I need her to come back."Jacob raised an eyebrow, clearly surprised. "You’re here for Bella, huh?" He stepped aside and let Xavier in. "I thought you were done with her."Xavier didn’t respond. He couldn’t. Not when the sight of Bella standing in the living room—looking weak, pale, and thinner than he remembered—stole his breath away.

  • The Billionaire Instant Twins   A Desperate Plea

    The house felt like a hollow shell without her.Xavier’s footsteps echoed through the empty halls as he made his way into the living room. The sharp sound of his shoes clicking against the polished marble floor only served to deepen the silence that had settled over the mansion since Bella left. He had been trying to keep himself busy, trying to focus on anything other than the aching void left by her departure, but it was impossible.Everything around him reminded him of her. The warmth she brought to the house, her laughter, the way she had taken care of Zane and Alana with such tenderness—it all felt so far away now.He sighed heavily, dragging a hand down his face. But it wasn’t just the house that felt empty. It was his heart. He had tried to ignore it, tried to bury it under layers of responsibility and guilt, but the truth was undeniable. He missed Bella—more than he cared to admit.As he entered the kitchen, he found Zane sitting at the table, looking distracted, his eyes vaca
