Christmas Eve. The highway was empty, the snow was screaming, and my breath turned to ice at -15°C. Derek slowed the car, then said like it was nothing: “She’s pregnant too. I chose her.” My stomach clenched around my eight-month baby. I reached for my phone—gone. Wallet—gone. He opened the door. “Your child was a mistake.” The taillights vanished… and I realized the storm wasn’t the worst thing out there.

Synopsis

Christmas Eve. The highway was empty. The storm was screaming. At -15°C, even breathing felt like knives in my lungs. That’s when my husband slowed the car… and casually said, “She’s pregnant too. I chose her.” My hand froze over my eight-month belly.
