My adopted daughters, Ashley and Emily, were supposed to be our pride and joy. We had given them everything, a loving home, a future. But then, the memory hit me like a physical blow: the boot flying towards my face, the crushing weight on my chest, the screams, the smell of gasoline and fire. I jolted awake, gasping, only to see Mark breathing softly beside me, the digital clock glowing 3:17 AM. My heart hammered. It wasn't a dream. I remembered the whispers turning to shouts: "Child abusers! He got them pregnant!" Mark' s medical report, proving his infertility, clutched in my hand, was ignored, torn from my grasp. The first rock hit my temple. The mob dragged me from our porch, overwhelming Mark as he tried to shield me. They killed me right there on our lawn. And Ashley and Emily, our 'sweet' daughters, stood by, their bellies just beginning to show. How could these girls, whom we loved, accuse us of such a monstrous crime? Why did the world believe their tear-stained lies over undeniable medical proof? The horror lingered, a burning question in my soul. But this time, a cold certainty settled in my gut. I was back. Alive. I had one chance. This time, I wouldn't die. They wouldn't win.

Introduction

My adopted daughters, Ashley and Emily, were supposed to be our pride and joy.

We had given them everything, a loving home, a future.

But then, the memory hit me like a physical blow: the boot flying towards my face, the crushing weight on my chest, the screams, the smell of gasoline and fire.

I jolted awake, gasping, only to see Mark breathing softly beside me, the digital clock glowing 3:17 AM.

My heart hammered.

It wasn't a dream.

I remembered the whispers turning to shouts: "Child abusers!

He got them pregnant!"

Mark' s medical report, proving his infertility, clutched in my hand, was ignored, torn from my grasp.

The first rock hit my temple.

The mob dragged me from our porch, overwhelming Mark as he tried to shield me.

They killed me right there on our lawn.

And Ashley and Emily, our 'sweet' daughters, stood by, their bellies just beginning to show.

How could these girls, whom we loved, accuse us of such a monstrous crime?

Why did the world believe their tear-stained lies over undeniable medical proof?

The horror lingered, a burning question in my soul.

But this time, a cold certainty settled in my gut.

I was back.

Alive.

I had one chance.

This time, I wouldn't die.

They wouldn't win.

Two years after her marriage, Ximena lost consciousness in a pool of her own blood during a difficult childbirth. She forgot that her ex-husband was actually getting married to someone else that day. "Let's get a divorce, but the baby stays with me." His words before their divorce was finalized still lingered in her head. He wasn't there for her, but he wanted full custody of their child. Ximena would rather die than see her child call someone else mother. As a result, she gave up the ghost on the operating table with two babies left in her belly. But that wasn't the end for her... Years later, fate caused them to meet again. Ramon was a changed man this time. He wanted to keep her to himself even though she was already a mother of two children. When he found out about her wedding, he stormed into the venue and created a scene. "Ramon, I died once before, so I don't mind dying again. But this time, I want us to die together," she yelled, glaring at him with hurt in her eyes. Ximena thought he didn't love her and was happy that she was finally out of his life. But what she didn't know was that the news of her unexpected death had shattered his heart. For a long time, he cried alone due to the pain and agony. He always wished he could turn back the hands of time or see her beautiful face once again. The drama that came later became too much for Ximena. Her life was filled with twists and turns. Soon, she was torn between getting back with her ex-husband or moving on with her life. What would she choose?
