Chapter 155: Memory That Refused To Stay Buried

Amorah PUV

I could not stop thinking about the photograph after Zane’s confession.

Every time I closed my eyes, saw the blurry image again and wondered whether those missing years of my childhood had somehow connected me to the twins long before fate brought us together again.

The possibility settled inside my mind and refused to leave.

What started as curiosity quickly became something closer to obsession because the more I learned, the more impossible it became to ignore.

Several days passed, but none of us truly moved on from the discovery.

Even during breakfast or family movie nights, I occasionally caught Zane staring at me with the same troubled expression. My pregnancy had advanced enough that exhaustion followed me everywhere now. Some mornings! woke up tired despite sleeping through the entire night.*

Conrad noticed before I did.

He quietly adjusted his schedule without discussing it with me.

Meetings disappeared from his calendar, security reports arrived at different times, and somehow he was always nearby whenever I needed something.

One afternoon, I walked into the kitchen looking for a snack and discovered he had already prepared lunch.

I stared at him suspiciously.

“You canceled another meeting.”

Conrad didn’t even look guilty.

“I rescheduled it.”

“That’s not the same thing.”

“It is when I say it is.”

I rolled my eyes. His mouth twitched slightly.

“You’ve become impossible.”

“I’ve always been impossible.”

Unfortunately, he had a

point.

The baby kicked suddenly as if agreeing with him.

Conrad immediately placed his hand against my stomach while looking entirely too pleased with himself.

“See?” he said.

“The baby is not taking your side.”

“The baby clearly appreciates good judgment.”

I walked away before his ego grew any larger.

Later that evening, I found Kyra and Zane arguing inside the nursery again.

Their disagreements still sounded childish, but lately there was something older beneath them.

They were growing.

“You can’t put combat books beside baby books,” Kyra complained.

“Why not?”

“Because babies don’t need combat training.”

Zane folded his arms.

“That’s exactly what someone unprepared for combat would say.”

Kyra threw a stuffed rabbit at him.

The rabbit bounced off his shoulder harmlessly.

“Violence proves I’m winning.”

Both twins immediately looked toward me.

The footage resumed.

The convoy appeared to be stopped temporarily.

Several adults moved through the area. The older child sat beside the infants.

One infant began crying

The older child immediately picked the baby up.

A strange ache spread through my chest

I didn’t know why. Maybe because the movement felt natural.

The way someone cared for family.

Conrad quietly rubbed his thumb across my knuckles.

I leaned closer to him without thinking. Nobody in the room spoke.

The footage ended abruptly.

The screen returned to static.

One of the intelligence wolves cleared his throat.

“There is one more thing.”

My heartbeat accelerated,

“The restoration team recovered a single high-resolution frame.”

Conrad immediately tensed beside me.

The specialist nodded toward another wolf.

A new image slowly loaded onto the screen.

The process felt endless.

My breathing stopped.

A child stood beside one of the transport vehicles.

The child’s face was visible. The clothing was visible. Everything was visible.

I recognized the jacket instantly
