Karen’s POV The day had finally arrived, Jordie's birthday. I had been planning this surprise party for weeks, and I couldn't wait to see the look on her face when she walked into the room. The kids, Paris and Austin, were bubbling with excitement, and I could tell they were having a hard time keeping the secret.As we waited for Jordie to arrive, I couldn't help but think about our past. The struggles i had faced when I first arrived at New York on the streets of the cold allies. It was a miracle that I meant Jordie that night. There were tugs running in the ally and I didn’t know. The kids where coming and I couldn’t afford the money for a hospital so I just slumped down on the side and hold that death would just take me once and for all cause the pain was too unbearable for me and I just couldn’t.I wanted to stay alive to give birth to my kids but the pain of everything was just too much. Liam wasn’t willing to give it a rest and still chased after me and after smuggling into dif

Devon's pov.Her long black hair descended down her back and the others covered her face. “Gemini?”The words left my mouth before I could even register it.Greg was first to turn and this hissed in frustration before hurriedly walking to Karen's office. Meanwhile, Gemini turned slightly glancing at me for a moment and I saw something flicker in her eyes–amusement.She walked past my desk before entering Karen's office. What was she doing here? As if it wasn't bad enough that I'd met Karen and now Gemini too. After Grey Tech fell, the entire members scattered and well I didn't hear from Gemini days later. She had said the previous day before then that she was in her way but after waiting for her for hours, it was clear that she had completely abandoned the ship just like the others. Gemini was a smart woman despite how shaken age always was. After everything that happened in Grey Tech she soon took the position as manager in Lex Operate faster than I expected. It was normal to th

Karen's POVBy the time I parked in my driveway and stepped out, I looked at the house in front of me. I was glad to be home, though my mind was still flooded with the events from work and the chaos of the day.Work was never tiring for me; I enjoyed what I did and every moment of it, but having Gemini and Devon around now made it a bit of a hassle. It made me more excited to leave than to stay. It wasn't supposed to be that way.There were too many meetings and decisions to be made, but the Lord knows that has never been a problem for me. I thrived on things like that, and problem-solving was one of my many admirable traits.The only thing out of place was the new people flooding my safe haven, but I couldn't let it get to me. I was the boss, and I built this place.Stepping inside, I barely had enough time to remove my coat and set my keys down when Paris came bolting toward me, her little legs stomping on the tiles, and her giggles filled the air. She gave me a wide smile before he

Karen's pov I rushed to my car, trying to quiet the swirl of thoughts in my mind. The morning had been hectic, as it always was when Jordie wasn’t around. I’d barely had time to take a deep breath before Troy arrived, but there was something about him—his calm demeanor, his easy confidence—that reassured me. I’d watched him interact with Paris and Aiden, and the way he immediately slipped into a playful routine with them made me feel a little more at ease. As I settled into the driver’s seat, I adjusted the rearview mirror, took one last glance at the house, and pulled out of the driveway. The kids would be fine. I trusted Troy to take them to school, even though I’d only just met him. And as much as I had my reservations about letting a stranger—albeit a friend of Jordie’s—into our lives, I couldn’t deny that he had a certain calm energy about him. Something that puts my worries at ease.Still, I couldn’t shake the unease completely. What if something went wrong? What if the kids d

Karen’s POVThe day had dragged on longer than I expected. After the tense start to the morning, my meeting schedule seemed never-ending, and every conversation felt like a mountain to climb. By the time I left the office, my mind was a jumble of worries about the business, Devon, and—most of all—the kids. I pulled into the driveway, cutting the engine as I let out a deep breath. The house was quiet, the windows glowing softly in the evening light. A wave of exhaustion swept over me, but beneath it was a flicker of anticipation. I wasn’t sure what I’d find inside. Was Troy still here? I pushed the door open and stepped into the house, greeted by the faint sound of giggles coming from the living room. The warmth of the sound eased some of the tension in my chest. Kicking off my shoes, I made my way toward the laughter. There they were. Paris and Aiden were sprawled out on the carpet, coloring in their notebooks while Troy sat cross-legged on the floor, holding up a picture book
