Dear ex-Wife please be mine again

Chapter 173

Christiana’s POV

The chaos in the warehouse was deafening, the shouts of the officers mingling with the heavy thud of boots against the concrete floor. My body felt like it was on the verge of collapse, trembling uncontrollably as I sat on the cold ground. I struggled to put my dress back on, my fingers clumsy and weak, barely managing to zip it up.

I didn’t hear his voice at first…too lost in the whirlwind of emotions and relief. But then I saw him. Alex.

He burst through the doors, his face filled with fury and desperation. His hair was disheveled, his eyes wide as they scanned the room until they landed on me.

“Christiana!” His voice cracked, raw and frantic. He didn’t hesitate, his long strides eating up the distance between us until he was by my side.

I couldn’t stop the sob that tore from my throat as he dropped to his knees, pulling me into his arms. His embrace was tight, protective, and I clung to him like a lifeline.

“It’s okay,” he whispered hoarsely, his hand cradling the back of my head. “I’m here now. You’re safe.”

But I wasn’t okay. The tears wouldn’t stop. My entire body was trembling as I buried my face in his chest, my sobs muffled against his shirt. The events of the past few hours overwhelmed me, crashing down on me all at once.

“I…he…” I tried to speak, but the words wouldn’t come.

“Shh,” Alex soothed, his voice steady despite the anger simmering beneath it. “You don’t have to say anything. Just breathe, Christiana.”

I felt his hand stroke my back, but even his touch couldn’t calm the storm inside me. My babies. I needed to see them.

“The kids,” I choked out, pulling back slightly. “Where are my babies?”

As if on cue, the officers began escorting the masked man out, his face was now revealed…a gaunt, cold expression that sent chills down my spine. He was cuffed, followed by two policemen, while another group brought out the children.

They were being carried gently, their small forms limp and unmoving. My heart stopped for a moment.

“Ethan, Emma!” I tried to run toward them, but my legs felt like jelly. Alex was at my side in an instant, supporting me as we moved closer.

One officer looked at me with a grave expression. “They’re alive, ma’am, but it appears they’ve been drugged. We’ll need to get them to a hospital immediately.”

I knelt beside my children, my hands trembling as I cupped their little faces. “Ethan… Emma… wake up, baby. Please, wake up.” My voice cracked as I gently shook them, tears streaming down my cheeks.

But there was no response. Their eyelids remained shut, their breathing shallow. Panic clawed at my chest, and I turned to Alex, my voice breaking. “They won’t wake up, Alex. Oh God, what did he do to them?”

and his hands curled into fists at his sides. I had seen Alex angry before, but
