Chapter 1 Did It All Start Here

Leticia Olsen's POV:

How did I get here? How did I turn from the happiest woman in the world to this pathetic, weepy loser whose mother walks on eggshells around? My mate paired with me by the moon goddess has broken me just like his mother and an outlander who's living with them has wished; the outlander manipulating them. I have become a self-hating, anger-driven idiot in an all out war for a wolf I was mated to. I see pieces of myself on the shards of the broken mirror on the floor. I can barely recognize the pieces of this wolf looking back at me. Aaron Turner has ruined me. Aaron Turner has broken me. He was my mate. My world. My Alpha. Was. I am obsessed with him. I gave him my soul. I gave him my body, my spirit, my wolf and it turns out, I'm not even family. I'm something to be discarded at will. I should have been something more. So much more....

♣. ♣. ♣

I hear shuffling from outside my locked door and I turn sharply. Is it him? Has he found us? Is he going to take them away?

"My child, please, come eat something. It's not the end of the world. The moon goddess has always been generous. She will bring your mate back to his senses. Hell, she might even pair you with someone else. Your true mate. You can fall in love twice, Leticia and... and move on. I don't want to lose you. Come on out, my child," she chokes, "Please, Leticia..."

I can't fall in love again. If it isn't Aaron Turner, it's no one else. In my arms, two tiny flushed faces stare back at me. My right hand grip around a knife laced with special wolfsbane.

The mark on the side of my neck starts to itch. That damned mark. I try to scratch on it but it's becoming worse. My eyes start to falter. No! One of my cubs whimper. I coo him and kiss him tenderly, my body shaking of starvation. I let the knife drop aside and I gently drop my cubs on my bed. Then I grab the knife and slit the wound on the part of my neck that itches, blood gushing like water. She's punishing me. Why did he have to be so special? I should have rejected him. I slit on his mark on my neck again. I should have rejected him. I slowly fall on the bed, next to my twins. I hear the muffled sound of crying. The darkness now seems hazy, swirling like a maelstrom that can't suck me in but leave me trapped. I hear a man's voice. A voice I've longed so desperately, to hear. I can't cry or tell him words. I don't even see him. I falter.

I was at my own engagement party at the Sterling estate when the world started tilting. Victoria Sterling, my future mother-in-law, smiled coldly as she watched me struggle with a cup of tea that had been drugged to ruin me. Before I could find my fiancé, Ryan, a waiter dragged me into the forbidden West Wing and locked me in a room with Julian Sterling, the family’s "fallen titan" who had been confined to a wheelchair for years. The door burst open to a frenzy of camera flashes and theatrical screams. Victoria framed me as a seductress caught in the act, and Ryan didn't even try to listen to my pleas, calling me "cheap leftovers" before walking away with his pregnant mistress. When I turned to my own family for help, my father signed a document severing our relationship for a five-million-dollar payout from Julian. They traded me like a commodity without a second thought. I didn't understand why my own parents were so eager to sell me, or how Ryan could look at me with such disgust after promising me forever. I was a sacrifice, a pawn used to protect the family's offshore accounts, and I couldn't fathom how every person I loved had a price tag for my destruction. With nowhere left to go, I married Julian in a bleak ceremony at City Hall. He slid a heavy diamond onto my finger and whispered, "We have a war to start." That night, inside his secret penthouse, I watched the paralyzed man stand up from his wheelchair and activate a screen filled with the Sterling family's darkest secrets. The execution had officially begun.

Too Late: The Spare Daughter Escapes Him

I died on a Tuesday. It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father. I was twenty years old. He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him-my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit-watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant. He chose her. He always chose her. And then, I woke up. Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for. This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London-an exile disguised as a severance package-I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice. He didn't know he was talking to a ghost. He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal. He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder. That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry. She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts. So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie. I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane. But I will not be a victim. This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter. This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain.
