He Made Me Jump While Carrying Our Twins — Novel

About

In a world where love and betrayal intertwine, Mara finds herself teetering on the brink of despair. Strapped to a chair on a balcony high above the city, she faces her greatest fear: heights. But it's not the drop that terrifies her most; it's the man she once trusted, Lucien, who has turned her life into a nightmare. With their twins on the way, her desperation to survive is only matched by her resolve to uncover the truth behind the lies that have torn them apart.

As Lucien's past with the enigmatic Vanessa resurfaces, Mara grapples with a web of manipulation and deceit. Each cruel word from Lucien's lips cuts deep, leaving her to wonder: how did the love that once burned brightly between them turn to this? With every moment spent in torment, the stakes rise. Will Mara find the strength to fight for the love she thought they shared, or will she remain a pawn in Vanessa's ruthless game?

In a battle of wills where hearts are at stake, Mara must confront her fears—not just of heights, but of losing everything she holds dear. As the truth looms ever closer, can she reclaim her voice before it’s too late?

He Made Me Jump While Carrying Our TwinsChapter 1

The ropes had long since left angry marks on my wrists, the chill of the balcony wind biting through my thin nightgown like tiny knives. My body trembled—not from cold, but from the weight of fear pressing into my chest. The towering skyline stretched endlessly below, a dizzying drop from the 65th floor.

I’d never feared pain. Never flinched at loneliness. But standing this close to the edge, strapped to a chair with my nine-month-pregnant belly exposed to the elements, my terror was absolute.

Heights.

They’d always been my undoing.

Now they were his weapon.

Lucien’s voice crackled from the phone speaker on the ground beside me, cold and sharp, thick with cruelty.

“She really thinks I’m going to feed her just because she skipped meals for a few days?” His tone dripped with contempt. “She’s not going to die sitting out there. It’s just the balcony, for god’s sake.”

I didn’t need to open my eyes to know he was talking about me. I knew his voice—knew every cruel edge it had taken on lately.

My lungs stung with every breath. My baby kicked, restless, and I could only hope the child didn’t feel what I felt. Despair. Exhaustion.
