Wedcuffed Chapter 213
Adrian’s POV The next morning I barely slept. The bed felt colder than it should have—too big, too quiet, too… wrong. Eva stirred beside me a few times, reaching for something I wasn’t willing to give. My mind never left that damn pool. Never left the image of Sarah in Alessandro’s arms, her skin glowing in the moonlight, her laughter echoing inside my skull like a haunting. But I wasn’t done. Not even close. By the time sunlight bled through the farmhouse windows, I was already downstairs, pacing the kitchen in silence, coffee in hand and plans tightening in my mind like knots. They’d think it was just another slow morning on the farm. But I had a different kind of day in mind. I turned on music—something loud, something upbeat—and set out breakfast like I was hosting a holiday brunch. Fruit, pancakes, freshly ground beans. I made sure the smell filled every corner of the house. Let them come down happy. Let them think they’ve won. Then I’d remind Sarah of everything she w

Sarah POV The air was thick with the scent of hay and late summer. One of those nights where the heat doesn’t break, even after sunset, just lingers like something unfinished. The porch boards were warm under my feet, and everything around me felt heavy and still. Except my chest. That felt tight. Like I was forgetting how to breathe. Gabriel had finally settled for the night. His soft, steady breaths crackled through the baby monitor next to me, a small sound in the silence, but somehow, it grounded me. Inside, I could hear the soft murmur of water running in the pipe, someone showering or maybe filling the sink. Alessandro’s voice floated in from the backyard, low and calm, probably smoothing over a late business call. That’s just who he was: steady, composed. Always showing up for the hard parts, no fuss. I just wanted a moment. One quiet breath in the dark. But of course, he found me. “You look tired,” Adrian said. Like he didn’t already know exactly why. I didn’t turn aroun

Adrian’s POVThe farmhouse air was thick with the scent of old wood, damp soil, and something far more volatile—unspoken words and barely masked fury. I leaned against the edge of the kitchen counter, arms crossed, watching as Sarah laughed softly at something Alessandro whispered. The sound—it used to be mine. That easy, effortless laughter. That look in her eyes.Now, I was an outsider in a room where I used to belong.I hadn’t planned on things going this way. I told myself I’d be civil, that I’d keep a distance. But every time I looked at her, every time she avoided meeting my eyes, something inside me twisted. The silence between us had grown roots. And yet, I could feel her still watching me when she thought I wasn’t looking.So when she walked out toward the back patio alone, I followed.Not to cause a scene. Not to stir up drama. I just… needed a moment. To say something real.“Sarah,” I called gently.She paused, not turning immediately. “Adrian,” she acknowledged quietly, vo

Alessandro’s POVFrom the moment we stepped into the farmhouse, I could feel Adrian’s eyes constantly drifting to Sarah, lingering just a little too long, his footsteps always a few too close behind hers. He moved like someone who didn’t know his place anymore, or maybe he did, and he didn’t care.I tried to brush it off for Sarah’s sake. This weekend was supposed to be a break from everything, a chance to reconnect in a space away from the noise. But Adrian’s presence, his calculated charm, his convenient timing it was starting to get under my skin.Still, I stayed quiet. Watched. Waited.But when I saw him follow her out to the back patio, something inside me snapped. I didn’t even think I just followed.The air outside had cooled, but the heat in my chest was simmering as I stepped out and caught the tail end of his words. That same, tired speech. The I-still-care line. The emotional fishing for a response. He was always good at that, knowing just how to sound vulnerable without ev

Sarah POVI stepped back into the house, heart pounding—not from fear, but frustration. I hated that this was happening. That what was meant to be a peaceful getaway had turned into another territorial standoff between two men who couldn’t seem to coexist without turning every shared space into a battlefield.And the worst part? I was done with it.Adrian’s presence, his words—they didn’t stir anything in me anymore except exhaustion. Whatever we’d had, whatever connection lingered in the corners of memory, it wasn’t real enough to justify the kind of chaos he kept bringing into my life.He wasn’t worth this.I paced the edge of the kitchen, trying to steady my breath, waiting for Alessandro to walk through the door. When he finally did, tension still radiating off him, I didn’t hold back.“What the hell was that?” I asked, arms crossed, trying to keep my voice calm—but I knew the bite in it was sharp.Alessandro blinked, clearly caught off guard by my anger.“I was just—he crossed a

Adrian’s POVI stood at the edge of the farmhouse veranda, watching the last streaks of gold fade from the sky. The echo of Sarah’s anger, the way she looked at me—as if I didn’t matter anymore hit deeper than I expected. Not because I was surprised but because I hated that I still cared. That she could look at me with so much distance in her eyes… like I was a shadow she’d long outgrown.And Alessandro—of course, always playing the knight in shining armor. Shielding her, clutching onto her like she’s his prize for enduring whatever perfect man pain he pretends to carry. I saw it in his eyes today. He doesn’t trust me. Good. He shouldn’t.But what neither of them seems to understand is this: I’m not going anywhere. I can’t.Because no matter how much Sarah tries to erase me, we’re connected. Tied together in ways Alessandro will never be able to replace. Gabriel is a part of me—and whether she likes it or not, that binds us.I took a deep breath, swallowed the bitterness rising in my

Adrian’s POVThe sun had begun its descent, casting a golden hue across the farm, soft and warm, like a lull before the storm. I stood behind the half-drawn curtain of the guest room, watching them through the glass. Sarah, Alessandro, and Gabriel were in the garden, enjoying their last evening here. To anyone else, it looked idyllic—like a postcard of the perfect little family.But to me, it was unbearable.Gabriel was laughing, loud and free, as Alessandro chased him around the patch of wildflowers. Then, in one smooth movement, he scooped him up into his arms and tossed him into the air, catching him with ease. Gabriel’s squeals of joy rang through the air, piercing right through me. And then I saw it—the way Gabriel looked at Alessandro. Eyes wide with trust, with adoration. As if he were the safest place in the world.As if he were the father.Not me.I felt something sharp twist in my chest, a pain that was part jealousy, part rage, part heartbreak. Gabriel was my blood. My son.

Sarah’s POVThe late afternoon sun spilled soft light into the room as I folded the last of Gabriel’s little sweaters into his duffel bag. The scent of lavender from the fresh laundry clung to the fabric, and it made me smile. He’d had such a beautiful time here. We all had. For the first time in weeks, things had felt… steady. Like the ground beneath my feet wasn’t constantly shifting.I glanced over my shoulder at Alessandro and Gabriel outside. Alessandro had Gabriel perched on his shoulders, and they were walking around the garden one last time before we left the farmhouse. Gabriel’s laughter echoed through the air, pure and infectious. My heart swelled at the sight.I didn’t know when exactly it had started feeling this way, but watching the two of them together felt like a glimpse into the kind of life I had always wanted—peaceful, warm, and real. Gabriel adored him. And Alessandro, for all his quiet strength, adored him right back. That bond, though unexpected, had grown into s

Sarah’s POVNew York City’s noise had always been oddly comforting, the honking cabs, distant sirens, and hurried footsteps on pavement. But today, it felt too loud, too sharp, like it was echoing the storm still raging inside me.It had been a week since we’d returned from the farmhouse.Seven days of strained silences, clipped conversations, and the kind of emotional distance I never thought I’d feel between Alessandro and me. I still hadn’t fully processed everything. I’d barely slept. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the look on his face when I walked away.But how was I supposed to just pretend like it hadn’t happened?He had kept something huge from me. Not just about Mira, but about how little he must have trusted me—to think I couldn’t handle the truth, to let someone like Adrian be the one to reveal it. After everything we’d fought for, the secrets still found a way to wedge themselves between us.And it hurt.Today was my first day back at the office since Gabriel’s birth.

Alessandro’s POV I stood there, watching the woman I loved crumble in front of me, her eyes scanning that godforsaken document Adrian had handed her like it was a grenade. And maybe it was because I felt the explosion the second her expression shifted from confusion to disbelief… and then to something that scared me more than anger ever could. Distance. It was like she was standing across a canyon, unreachable, even though she was just a few feet away. Her voice cracked when she asked me if it was true, and that alone shattered something inside me. God, I wanted to fix it. But how do you fix something you didn’t even know was still broken? In the past, I thought I’d buried it. That nightmare with Mira... it had happened years ago, in a life that felt a million miles away from who I am now. I had been young, foolish, and too trusting. I never touched her. I never crossed any line. But when things ended, Mira spiralled. I tried to reason with her, but she twisted everything. S

Sarah POV He stood a few feet away, his face pale, lips parted as though he had something to say but hadn’t quite figured out how to say it yet. His hands were by his sides, stiff, clenched into fists that betrayed the tension under his otherwise still frame. I couldn’t process it. My mind refused to connect the dots. “Tell me this isn’t true,” I said finally, my voice hollow. “Please, tell me this is some cruel mistake. That this… that this woman is lying.” Alessandro took a slow step toward me, but stopped when he saw me flinch not in fear, but in raw emotional recoil. That hurt in a way I couldn’t describe. His face twisted in pain. “Sarah,” he said quietly, his voice thick with emotion. “It’s not true. We were close once, back in college. Yes, we dated for a few months, but when things didn’t work out, she didn’t take it well. I never laid a hand on her. I never said anything inappropriate. It was messy, and I should have handled the fallout better. But I swear to you—on

Sarah’s POV I stood still, the document quivering slightly in my grip, as if the words on the page were too heavy for me to bear. My breath seemed to have gotten trapped somewhere between my lungs and my throat, in a region where incredulity and betrayal met. I read it again, slowly this time, each word punching a little deeper. Mira Solanki. Sexual harassment complaint. Alessandro’s name… linked with it. I looked up at him, the man I had let into my heart, into my life, into Gabriel’s life. The man who had been my anchor through the storm was Adrian. The man I trusted with my son, my dreams, my healing. He stood a few feet away, his face pale, lips parted as though he had something to say but hadn’t quite figured out how to say it yet. His hands were by his sides, stiff, clenched into fists that betrayed the tension under his otherwise still frame. I couldn’t process it.
