When I opened my eyes, the room was bathed in pale, cold sunlight filtering through the half-closed blinds. Everything felt disorienting, surreal, and heavy—as if the very air around me pressed down on my chest. For a few seconds, I stared blankly at the white ceiling, the only sound the steady beeping of machines at my side.

And then it hit me—the baby.

Panic surged through me like wildfire. My hands flew to my stomach, pressing desperately against the blanket. Fear rose so fast it choked me,

  • The Unwanted Wife   Chapter 259: So, This Had To End.

    For a moment, neither of us said anything. Only the waves filled the silence, rolling in and breaking softly against the shore before pulling back into the dark water. The sound should have been calming, but it only made the silence between us feel heavier. Regan stood still, his jaw tight and his eyes fixed on me. If I did not say it now, if I swallowed it again, I knew I would spend another sleepless night replaying everything I should have said. And I wanted my mind to be quiet. Just once, I wanted peace. “I am tired, Regan,” My fingers curled around my slippers. “I am tired of avoiding places because you might be there. I am tired of pretending I am fine every time your name is mentioned. I am tired of acting like seeing you does not still do something terrible to me.” He lowered his gaze. “I understand.” “You do?” A bitter laugh slipped past my lips. “Then set me free legally, Regan.” He licked his lips and slowly shook his head. “We had an agreement.” That fucking agreemen

  • The Unwanted Wife   Chapter 258: With Him Under The Moonlight

    I looked at my son sleeping peacefully with Phoenix’s arm wrapped protectively around him.A small smile touched my lips as I leaned down and kissed Atticus’s forehead. He did not stir. He only snuggled closer to Phoenix, his lashes resting softly against his cheeks.I took my scarf from the chair and wrapped it around my shoulders before quietly stepping out of the room. I could not sleep.The hallway was silent, but my thoughts were not. They kept circling back to whatever my life was right now which is a mess, and to the heaviness in my chest that refused to leave.I pulled my scarf tighter as I pressed the elevator button for the first floor. When the doors opened, I was surprised to find the resort still awake despite it being one in the morning. A few guests lingered in the lobby, speaking in low voices. Staff moved between tables, and distant laughter drifted from the bar.I was already walking toward the glass doors when a strange prickling sensation crawled over the back of m

  • The Unwanted Wife   Chapter 257: Where did you go?

    Anastasia’s POV A voice called out from somewhere behind me. I turned so fast my breath caught in my throat, and Alaric was lowering Atticus to the sand. “Mommy!” Atticus called, already running toward me. A collective sigh of relief swept through the shore. My parents, cousins, brothers, the staff, and the guards all seemed to breathe again at the same time. “Thank God,” Marianne whispered beside me, pressing a hand to her chest. “Oh, thank God.” “Atticus!” Phoenix called, his voice sharp with panic and relief. “Where did you go?” But Atticus did not answer him. He ran straight into my arms, and I dropped to my knees, catching him so tightly that he made a small sound against my shoulder. My pounding heart finally slowed, but the fear inside me did not disappear. “Atticus,” I said, pulling back just enough to look at his face. “How could you leave like that? Do you know how scared we were?” His lower lip trembled. “I’m sorry, Mommy.” “You cannot just disappear.” I cupped hi

  • The Unwanted Wife   Chapter 256: Letting Go

    Alaric’s POV Fuck me. That was my first thought when I saw my nephew in the middle of the ocean with a man. It is better if it was a random man. But it’s not. It was Regan. Marianne and I had already been panicking since that kid suddenly vanished the moment I reached the shore. I offered to help look for my adorable nephew, mostly because standing around while everyone spiraled would only make things worse. Maybe this was the reason my dear cousin Anastasia had looked troubled even though this was supposed to be a vacation. They were here. He was here. Regan was here. And not just here. He was riding a jet ski with Atticus—his secret son—back toward the shore. I cursed under my breath. But there was no point delaying the inevitable. Maybe him finding out had always been getting closer. Maybe this was one of those signs from the universe that people liked to talk about when everything was already falling apart. With that thought, I walked toward them as casually as I could,

  • The Unwanted Wife   Chapter 255: With My Son.....

    We walked toward the jetski, Atticus’s tiny hand warm in mine. I called out for Reid when I noticed he wasn’t walking with us.He wasn’t far — just standing there with that proud, knowing grin. The nanny was helping Atticus into a life jacket she pulled from her bag. She brought extra. When I asked her earlier what it was for, she just shrugged and said she “felt like it.”Maybe it was coincidence. Maybe it was fate.“Reid,” I called, “aren’t you coming?”He jogged over, grinning like he owned the whole beach. I opened my mouth to tell him to ride with us to stay close, but he just lifted his hand and gave me a thumbs‑up.“When did he get so cool,” I muttered proudly, looking at my son.“Dad’s the best at this,” he told Atticus proudly. “You’re gonna love it.”Atticus’s eyes sparkled, excitement bubbling up so fast it softened every trace of the tears he’d shed earlier. I helped him climb onto the jetski, settling him in front of me. His back pressed lightly against my chest. He giggle

    Then, without warning, Atticus stepped closer. And suddenly, his small arms wrapped around my waist. He hugged me.I froze.Reid froze too, eyes wide. “Atti?”But Atticus didn’t let go. His tiny shoulders trembled, and then he cried. Soft, shaky little sobs pressed against my stomach.My heart stopped.“Hey… hey, buddy,” I whispered, my voice breaking even though I tried to hold it together. “What’s wrong?”Atticus shook his head against me, gripping my shirt tighter. “I’m just… so happy.”Happy. Happy to see me? Happy like something inside him recognized something inside me. I didn’t understand. Damn, I couldn’t understand. But God… I felt it.A warmth spread through my chest. I bent down, arms moving on their own, and hugged him back gently afraid that this moment would vanish in an instant.I was so happy. Too happy.Reid let out a delighted squeal and immediately threw his arms around both of us, giggling as he squeezed himself into the hug.“Group hug!” he laughed, pressing his c

    I sighed and stopped what I was doing, the half-folded clothes forgotten on the bed. The air inside the room felt heavy, so I stepped out onto the balcony, letting the cool breeze brush against my skin. I closed my eyes, breathing in, trying to clear my thoughts — until my phone buzzed.An unknown

    We exchanged a look.Marianne and I rushed out of my room, hurrying down the stairs when we noticed the house staff gathered near the entrance — their faces tense, eyes fixed on the gate.“What’s going on?” Marianne asked one of them, but before anyone could answer, we both caught sight of the chao

    By the fifth, he was slower—more deliberate—but he didn’t stop until the plate was empty.He hesitated, then asked, “What’s the first thing you do when you wake up now?”I frowned slightly at the unexpected question. “Check my messages. Drink coffee. Why?”He shrugged weakly. “Just trying to pictur

    2 hours later, the doorbell rang.I didn’t move. I assumed it was a rider — the usual knock-and-go delivery. I was curled up on the chaise in my room, a book open but unread in my lap.Then came a knock on my door.One of the maids peeked in, her voice gentle. “Ma’am, someone’s asking for you at th
