Chapter 1 No.1

It was getting to dawn and Milli Logan was done with her duty at the orphanage. She's the matron of the city orphanage and on that particular day, she worked on a night shift.

She walked out of the gate of the orphanage and felt she heard a faint cry of a baby.

She smiled. She was addicted to her kids at the orphanage that while away from them, she could still hear their cries in her mind.

But taking another step, she heard the cry again. Then she paused. This is not her imagination,nor is she hearing the baby's cry in her mind.

She was hearing it with her ears. She looked back at the orphanage and then like an intuition, she looked sideways and saw swaddling clothes and it seemed she saw the clothes shake.

She shook for fear. She started walking gently towards the swaddling clothes and the baby's cry seemed to be louder than before.

She went and looked further and was shocked when she saw it was a baby.

"A baby!" Milli exclaimed.

She dropped her bag and without a second thought, she carried the baby. The little fellow had sobbed and started sniffling.

Millie's eyes went moist. Was this baby abandoned by his mother? Was he given birth to by a human being or a wild animal?

She saw the baby's face had become reddish. He needed to be taken care of immediately. She looked around but couldn't find the trace of who might have left him there.

She rushed back into the orphanage and went straight to the nursery section. The other employees were surprised to see her rushed back in with a baby in her hand.

"Please call the doctor immediately,"Milli Logan ordered. She quickly unwrapped the baby and gave him over to a nanny to bathe.

Soon the nanny returned and said "it's a girl"

"A girl?" Milli Logan was surprised. He thought the baby was a boy. A woman gave birth to her gender and threw her away?

What a cruel world

Soon the doctor came and went in to attend to the baby. In less than an hour, the doctor came out of the nursery section.

"She's fine now. She's been fed and already asleep" he said with a smile.

Milli Logan smiled. She's glad that the baby is fine. She's glad that she found the baby. She's glad that she's still fine and alive.

She will spend the rest of her life looking after her until she grows up, capable of looking after herself.

That feeling of motherhood overtook Milli Logan and she made up her mind to see that the little fellow experiences the love of a mother.

"What do we call her ?" The nanny asked.

"Call her Aurora"

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ "I want to get a divorce, Mark," I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time-even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.

My world revolved around Jax Harding, my older brother's captivating rockstar friend. From sixteen, I adored him; at eighteen, I clung to his casual promise: "When you're 22, maybe I'll settle down." That offhand comment became my life's beacon, guiding every choice, meticulously planning my twenty-second birthday as our destiny. But on that pivotal day in a Lower East Side bar, clutching my gift, my dream exploded. I overheard Jax' s cold voice: "Can't believe Savvy's showing up. She' s still hung up on that stupid thing I said." Then the crushing plot: "We' re gonna tell Savvy I' m engaged to Chloe, maybe even hint she' s pregnant. That should scare her off." My gift, my future, slipped from my numb fingers. I fled into the cold New York rain, devastated by betrayal. Later, Jax introduced Chloe as his "fiancée" while his bandmates mocked my "adorable crush"-he did nothing. As an art installation fell, he saved Chloe, abandoning me to severe injury. In the hospital, he came for "damage control," then shockingly shoved me into a fountain, leaving me to bleed, calling me a "jealous psycho." How could the man I loved, who once saved me, become this cruel and publicly humiliate me? Why was my devotion seen as an annoyance to be brutally extinguished with lies and assault? Was I just a problem, my loyalty met with hatred? I would not be his victim. Injured and betrayed, I made an unshakeable vow: I was done. I blocked his number and everyone connected to him, severing ties. This was not an escape; this was my rebirth. Florence awaited, a new life on my terms, unburdened by broken promises.
