True Love Rekindled Chapter 16: A HIDDEN TRUTH
Arianna decided to keep the pregnancy a secret from Zander about the baby's true father. She convinced herself: * Zander would never accept the child if he knew the truth. * Her family's life would be ruined by scandal and divorce. * The baby deserved a stable home, even if built on deception. Julian was heartbroken but understood Arianna's fears: "I'll be waiting for you, always. Maybe someday circumstances will change..." As Arianna's belly grew, Zander doted on her and their upcoming addition: * He attended prenatal appointments, beaming with pride, besides his busy schedule on his political journey. Zander's political campaign reached its climax: * Election day arrived, and Zander's team anxiously awaited results. * Arianna attended the election watch party with Zander, trying to hide her morning sickness and secret. The announcement came: **Zander Wins!** He was elected to public office amidst cheers and applause. Zander lifted Arianna into a triu

Arianna's eyes widened in alarm as she heard Zander's voice outside the room: "I'll just check on my wife and son... " She rapidly gestured to Julian, whispering: "Behind the curtain! Now!" Julian sprinted to the curtain separating the room from the window and hid just as: * Zander entered, beaming with pride * Nurses followed with warm smiles Zander approached Arianna's bedside, cooing over the baby: "Our little Alexander is perfect! You were amazing during delivery." Arianna forced a smile, heart racing from Julian's hidden presence: "We're just relieved he's healthy, Zander..." Julian stood frozen behind the curtain, listening to Zander's every word: * His heart ached from being so close yet invisible as JJ's father * He wondered how much longer Arianna could maintain this secret As Zander sat beside Arianna, holding JJ's hand, Julian felt a surge of protectiveness... Arianna maintained a calm smile while chatting with Zander, all while thinking of a

Julian forced a reassuring smile: "Work's just been overwhelming lately. This new case has me swamped – long hours and stressful deadlines." Sarah looked concerned but accepting: "I had no idea it was that bad. Do you want me to plan something relaxing for us this weekend – just the two of us?" Julian felt a pang of guilt for deceiving her, but relief that she bought his excuse: "That sounds perfect. I'd love some downtime with you." Sarah leaned in for a gentle kiss, and Julian returned it, feeling like he was living two lives: * One with Sarah – comfortable, predictable, and deceitful. * Another with Arianna – passionate, secretive, and true to his heart. As they turned off the lights, Julian's mind sank to Arianna. Days turned into weeks, and Julian's routine remained: * Family time with Sarah and kids: dinners, school events, and weekends at the beach house. * Secret moments with Arianna: stolen phone calls, hidden texts, and occasional clandestine meetin

Intermission arrived, and Julian stood up with the crowd. "I'll grab us some water," he told Sarah, already heading towards the hallway.Once out of sight, he quickly typed a response to Arianna:"My heart just exploded seeing that message. JJ calling me 'Daddy' even in drawings... kills me. Missing you both desperately."He sent the text, then deleted the conversation history – a habit born of paranoia.Just as he turned to return to the auditorium, he heard the water fountain behind him turn off. A woman walked out of the corner – Julian's heart sank – It was Emily, Zander's daughter and JJ's half-sister!Emily smiled politely at Julian in the hallway:"Hi, are you here for the play? My friend Maya's performing."Julian returned the smile proudly:"Actually, I'm Maya's father. I'm here to watch her shine on stage tonight."Emily's eyes lit up:"No way! Maya's always talking about you and her mom, Sarah. You must be really proud of her!"Julian chuckled, feeling relieved the conv

While Sarah cracked eggs and hummed along to music at the kitchen island, Julian seized the moment to sneak a quick text to Arianna: "Close call just now. Sarah almost walked in on us talking. Finish our conversation tonight - alone?" He hit send, eyes darting towards Sarah – still oblivious, whisking eggs. Julian quickly closed the messaging app, pretending to scroll through work emails on his phone. His heart raced slightly, wondering if Arianna would see the text before Zander woke up... A few seconds later, his phone buzzed slightly – Arianna responded already! Julian's eyes locked onto the screen: "Yes, tonight. Zander's attending a fundraiser dinner. We'll finally finish talking..." Julian exhales internally, relieved and excited for tonight's private conversation. Sarah walks over, wiping her hands on a towel: "Hey, coffee or orange juice with your waffles?" Julian smiles naturally for the first time since sneaking the text: "Coffee, please. Need the caffeine aft

As the night wore on, Julian knew he had to leave to avoid suspicion. He gently woke Arianna, whispering: "I need to go – before morning. Sarah and Zander might get suspicious if I'm late or absent." Arianna nodded understandingly, her eyes still dreamy from their reunion: "I know. Be careful. My heart feels whole again with you back in it." Julian kissed her softly: "Mine too. We'll talk tomorrow – secretly – and start planning our future together." He dressed quickly. Julian slipped out of Arianna's house, into the still of the night. He drove home cautiously, arriving just before dawn broke – perfect timing. Inside, the house was quiet; Sarah still asleep upstairs. Julian crept into bed beside her, trying not to disturb her. Sarah stirred slightly, murmuring: "Work videos keep you up late again?" Julian smiled to himself – his secret was safe: "Yeah, just got caught up in a case briefing. Go back to sleep." Sarah snuggled closer, oblivious to the n

Arianna helped Ava with her homework while Jackson played video games nearby. Emily was at a friend's house for a study group. Zander walked in, dropping his briefcase on the floor: "Hey everyone, long day at the Capitol." Arianna smiled, giving him a warm kiss: "Welcome home. How was the congressional meeting?" Zander's expression turned serious: "It was intense. My party leaders just informed me – I'm being considered for a prestigious Committee Chairman role." Arianna's eyes widened: "That's amazing news! What does it mean for your schedule?" Zander's tone hinted at her worst fears: "It means I'll be traveling even more – 4-5 days a week – and when I'm in town, long hours at the office. Our family time... will be severely limited." Arianna felt a pang – this meant less time with Zander, possibly more time thinking of Julian... Arianna tried to sound supportive: "That's a huge opportunity for your career, Zander. We'll make it work as a family." But inside, she felt a

Arianna's voice was barely above a whisper: "Zander, do you think I've been distant lately... or that something's changed between us?" Zander's eyes locked onto hers, filled with perception: "Honestly, yes. I've felt it – slight withdrawals in your touch, less conversation about us. I assumed it was just stress from my career..." **Chapter 71: "A Direct Question"** Arianna's voice was barely above a whisper: "Zander, do you think I've been distant lately... or that something's changed between us?"

Julian's hands gently framed Arianna's face, his thumbs stroking her skin as he deepened the kiss. Without breaking apart, he scooped her up in his arms and walked towards the lake house's secluded master bedroom. Arianna wrapped her arms around his neck, lost in the sensation of his lips and the familiarity of his embrace. The bedroom door closed behind them, and Julian laid her down on the plush bed, joining her beside it. Their kisses grew more urgent, passion unleashing years of pent-up longing. As they embraced, Arianna felt like she was home – in Julian's arms, her heart finally free. Julian paused, gaze locking onto hers, voice low and husky: "I've dreamed of this moment... holding you again." Arianna's whisper matched his intensity: "I've dreamed of forever with you..." Their lips met again, passion igniting like wildfire. Julian's hands explored Arianna's skin, rekindling memories of their past intimacy. Arianna's fingers traced Julian's jawline, his neck, his
