Emma gave her heart, her vows, and finally her body to Caleb-believing love would grow, even if it wasn't there in the beginning. But Caleb Morgan never looked at her with affection. He only saw her as a means to an end: a womb to carry the child who could save his mistress son. Pregnant and emotionally shattered, Emma endures silent nights and colder days, hoping for a trace of warmth from the man she calls husband. But all he gives her is a deadline-the baby must come early, or Mike won't survive. To Caleb, she was just a vessel. To Emma, this child is all she has left. But when the truth hits him, He realizes too late what he destroyed. Caleb begins to unravel. His regret runs deep, but Emma is no longer the woman who once waited at the door. He wants her back. But now, she's the one who's gone.

Too Late, Husband Chapter 1 Episode 1

Emma lay motionless on the bed, her body aching, her eyes glassy with unshed tears. Her lip was caught between her teeth, but the pain in her chest couldn't be swallowed down. Eventually, her cries broke free, soft at first, then louder, until she was trembling beneath the weight of it.

Caleb Morgan stood at the edge of the bed, watching her. Unmoved. Detached.

He reached out and wiped her face, not gently, not cruelly either. Just... without emotion. Like cleaning up a spill.

"Why are you crying?" His voice was sharp, flat. "Do you feel wronged now?"

She didn't answer. She turned her face to the side, eyes shut, letting the tears soak the pillow. Her silence was her only defense.

He gripped her chin and forced her to look at him. "You're my wife, Emma. That means something. Whether you like it or not."

"But you're the one who said I wasn't fit to carry your child," she said, voice shaking. "So what are you doing now, Caleb? What exactly do you want from me?"

He didn't answer with words, only force. His body pressed into hers, heavier this time, more deliberate. She gasped, struggling to breathe, her fingers clenching the sheets beneath her.

"Please..." she whispered. "Stop... it hurts..."

But there was no softness in him. Not tonight. Maybe not ever.

"You don't deserve a child from me," he said against her skin. "You make me sick, Emma. But right now... I need that baby. So you'll give it to me, whether you like it or not."

She cried out, not just from pain-but from the cruelty, the hollow way he spoke. She pushed at him weakly, her strength no match for his.

"Why?" she choked. "Why are you doing this? Why now?"

He didn't reply. Not in words. And not with love.

When it was over, she lay still-numb, staring at the ceiling, feeling like a stranger in her own skin.

---

The hours passed. Morning crept in, but Emma didn't move.

She hadn't slept. Her body ached, but her heart hurt more. As the first rays of sun spilled through the window, she finally pulled herself out of bed and sat on the couch, wrapping a blanket tightly around her.

Two years married to Caleb.

Two years of being invisible.

At first, she thought he simply didn't love her. That he would ignore her forever and she'd live a quiet, cold life beside him. That was something she could've endured.

But then something shifted.

One night, he showed up in her room. No words. No emotion. Just... demand. And from that night on, he kept coming back. Over and over. Like a man chasing something he hated.

And every time, she gave in, because what else could she do?

It wasn't until she found out she was pregnant that he finally stopped touching her. But the torment didn't end. He just replaced his hands with words, and they cut deeper than anything.

"You wanted this, didn't you? Threw yourself into my bed like it was some prize."

"You better protect that baby. If anything happens, I swear I'll never forgive you."

"Don't start thinking this child changes anything. You're nothing, Emma. The baby's nothing too. Don't even dream of using this to tie me down."

She used to think time moved too slowly. Now, she couldn't believe three months had passed.

Her hand slid over her stomach-still flat, but no longer empty.

A life was growing inside her. His child. Hers too.

She didn't know if she could love it. But she wanted to. She needed to.

She imagined the baby: bright eyes, soft laughter, maybe a fondness for sweets and mischief. The image brought a fleeting, tender smile to her face-something small and quiet, like hope trying to breathe.

That's when Caleb walked in.

He saw the smile first, and it angered him. Not because he understood it, but because it existed.

"What's so funny?" he asked, his tone flat.

Emma didn't look at him. She didn't need to. She knew the look on his face already-like even her silence annoyed him.

"I have my first prenatal appointment tomorrow," she said quietly. "Will you come with me?"

She didn't expect much. But part of her hoped. He was the father, after all. That meant something... didn't it?

He didn't even hesitate.

"No."

Then he leaned in close, his voice lower, crueler: "And even if I had time, I wouldn't go. You don't deserve that."

She blinked. It didn't sting like it used to. Maybe because the wounds were already too deep to feel.

She gave a tired, bitter smile.

"Right. Of course. I forgot... only Sophie is worth showing up for, isn't she?"

I sat in the gray, airless room of the New York State Department of Corrections, my knuckles white as the Warden delivered the news. "Parole denied." My father, Howard Sterling, had forged new evidence of financial crimes to keep me behind bars. He walked into the room, smelling of expensive cologne, and tossed a black folder onto the steel table. It was a marriage contract for Lucas Kensington, a billionaire currently lying in a vegetative state in the ICU. "Sign it. You walk out today." I laughed at the idea of being sold to a "corpse" until Howard slid a grainy photo toward me. It showed a toddler with a crescent-moon birthmark—the son Howard told me had died in an incubator five years ago. He smiled and told me the boy's safety depended entirely on my cooperation. I was thrust into the Kensington estate, where the family treated me like a "drowned rat." They dressed me in mothball-scented rags and mocked my status, unaware that I was monitoring their every move. I watched the cousin, Julian, openly waiting for Lucas to die to inherit the empire, while the doctors prepared to sign the death certificate. I didn't understand why my father would lie about my son’s death for years, or what kind of monsters would use a child as a bargaining chip. The injustice of it burned in my chest as I realized I was just a pawn in a game of old money and blood. As the monitors began to flatline and the family started to celebrate their inheritance, I locked the door and reached into the hem of my dress. I pulled out the sharpened silver wires I’d fashioned in the prison workshop. They thought they bought a submissive convict, but they actually invited "The Saint"—the world’s most dangerous underground surgeon—into their home. "Wake up, Lucas. You owe me a life." I wasn't there to be a bride; I was there to wake the dead and burn their empire to the ground.

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancĆ©, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."
