Chapter 1 Prologue

Prologue

The Past

"Stacia is everything ok?" Darius asked.

"Darius it's time the babies are coming."

Darius grabbed the hospital bag and helped me out to the car. I called my OBGYN and told her my water broke. She told me that we needed to hurry and get to the hospital because with twins it could mean more complications. I told her we were already on our way and she told me to come straight to labor and delivery when we got there and that she would have a room waiting for us.

Today we were becoming parents. I was so scared but also very excited all at the same time. I was in so much pain and my contractions were coming faster and faster with no time in between them it seemed. I was starting to get scared I wasn't going to make it to the hospital in time. Darius looked over at me and he looked just as worried as I was.

I felt a sense of relief when we finally pulled up to the hospital. Darius ran in to get a wheelchair for me and came right back out and helped me into it. A guy from Valet came over and said he would park the car and gave Darius a stub for us to be able to get the car once we needed it again. So, we were off to labor and delivery and not a moment to soon if you ask me. My contractions were so bad that I could barely breathe. I was feeling a lot of intense pressure and the need to push. Once we got up to labor and delivery, I told the nurse and she hurried me into a room and helped me into a gown and hooked me up to a monitor that monitored my contractions and the twins' heartbeats.

"Ethan, this is unethical. It's criminal. She hasn't consented." Those chilling words, whispered in the sterile hum of an operating room, were the first thing I heard as consciousness flickered back. My heart pounded, cold dread snaking through my veins. Dr. Ben Carter, Ethan's old friend, was arguing with him. "She's my girlfriend, Ben. Practically my wife," Ethan scoffed, his voice laced with a terrifying casualness. "Chloe needs this kidney. Ava is a perfect match." Kidney. Chloe. My blood ran cold. The beautiful, fragile Chloe Vahn, who had always haunted our relationship, was now taking a piece of me, quite literally. I tried to scream, to move, but my body felt like lead, my throat raw. I felt a sharp tug, a searing line of fire on my side-the scalpel. Ten years of love, of sacrifice, building Ethan Reed and his company back from nothing, all for this. To be carved up like an animal for the woman he truly loved. When I finally regained full awareness, Ethan was by my bedside, a practiced look of concern on his face, spinning a lie about a ruptured ovarian cyst. But then, the overheard nurse's whispered conversation confirmed my nightmare: "Chloe's kidney transplant... he barely left her side." The pieces slammed into place. My despair solidified into a cold, hard resolve. No more. I grabbed my phone, scrolling to one contact I hadn't dared to call. Noah Hayes, Ethan's rival, a man of integrity. My finger trembled as I typed. "Noah," I managed, my voice raspy. "Are you still looking for a COO who knows Reed Innovate's strategies... and perhaps, a wife?" The silence stretched, then his voice, calm and serious, cut through the noise of my crumbling world. "My jet, seven days. LaGuardia."
