Once Mistaken, Forever His

In a panic to grant his comatose grandmother's last wish, Claude brings a pregnant stranger, Chloe, to the hospital and lies that she carries his child. The deception works: his grandmother wakes. Relief turns to unease the night Claude dreams of Chloe. Chloe thought their meeting was a coincidence — she didn’t expect the man who claimed her baby to keep reappearing in her life. Guilt and obligation tangle with hope and secrecy. Each encounter raises the stakes, forcing both to face the cost of one impulsive lie and the fragile truths they must confront before everything it saved unravels.
