THE LAST MAN STANDING Chapter 1 The First Day

Today is my first day of training for the army. I have to ride to fourth-worth in Texas which is not far from my house. I live in Texas with my mother Jody. I'm an only child. My dad passed away when I was a baby but I heard great things about him. He is the reason I joined because it runs in my family. Mom, are you going to be okay while I'm gone? Yes, sweetheart, stop worrying I will be fine. Your Aunt Jane be here with me while you have gone just remember to come back in one piece sweetheart. I will mom, I love you, mom.

Just remember when I get back home we will be going to visit dad's rest area and then we are going shopping before I have to go overseas okay sweetie. Get going, we don't want you late for your first day of training now do we? No, we don't want that. See you later mom I love you." I gave my mom a hug and kiss and ran out the door. I didn't want to get into trouble on my first day of basic training. Which never fails. I was late but at least I wasn't in trouble. The officer said not to let it happen again I won't ma'am. I went and joined the others. I get in line with the others hopefully they don't notice but that fails because I got caught by my sergeant. ladies and gentlemen, please tell Mr. Winters what happens when you are late? We have to run 5 laps and do 100 pushups. Maybe you will learn to be on time, ain't that right Mr. winters? Yes sir it will never happen again, sir. Good now, let's get to business. Today you get to know your unit and learn about them. You will learn their weaknesses and their strengths. I went to my bunk to meet my unit. What's up, everyone? My name is James Winter.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband's Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn't find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn't even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father's legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn's party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara's health and managing every detail of Caden's empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I'd drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause-if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I'd forgotten.
