His Untamed Luna

Secret Triplets: The Billionaire's Second Chance

Roderic Penn

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

My hand trembled immediately after I saw the message on my phone. I panicked as I slowly moved to my desk to absorb the shock. Just when I was getting ready to look at the message again, my phone rang. It was Pamela my younger sister, so I picked it up.

Hello Pam' I said

'Sis how are you doing?" she asked

'I'm fine" I answered.

Sis, Ethan is around ' she announced

So it's true? The message I received was true that Ethan is back from Canada. I thought in my mind.

"And he came to the house" she continues

"What!" I exclamation

"Yeah, he said he is going to spend the weekend in your place," Pam said

"No way" I screamed. Immediately, cold sweat trickled down my cheeks and my hand shivered. I was barely holding the phone in my ear.

"Come on sis why are you behaving like a kid? He used to be your favorite cousin remember" Pammy said a bit surprised.

"I know, Pam but things have changed, I am married now he can't just bang into my house just like that" I managed to defend myself

"Well if that's the case, you don't need to bother yourself. Ethan called your husband to inform him of his coming" Pam said

"He did what!" I screamed again in a horror

"He asked about your number, mom gave him. He called your line and it was not going through. So mom called your husband requesting that he gave you his phone, but Fred told her that he is not with you. Mom informed him about Ethan. You know your husband, he talked with Ethan and invite him over to the spend weekend at your place. she concluded.

"No way, Fred can't do that," I said

"But sis I thought you will be happy to see him," She said.

I will be lying to myself if I say I am not happy to see him, but the truth is that it is very dangerous to accept Ethan around me.

The implications of his presence around me will be too bad. This is because I have never gotten over him. And that is something I dare not tell anyone.

"Of course, I am, but seriously one weekend with Ethan is long enough for me". I informed her.

"Come on sis, you guys are adults, not kids he can't bully you even if he bullies others and you know that. Anyways I just thought I should let you know, you know your husband might be too busy to inform you as usual and Ethan likes to surprise people that's why I called. I will see you when I returned from my trip ok" she said

"Okay, thanks bye," I said and hang up.
