An Arranged Scheme #2 Chapter 1 Prologue

*Shrishti Pov*

When I took the tray into my hands after arranging the coffee mugs and teacups properly, one of the servants in the kitchen reached me saying, "I will bring them out, Madam."

"It's okay! You have other works to do. I am going to the garden anyway." Giving her a smile I turned around and started walking out of the kitchen.

After a few steps, I realized I forgot the glass of juice, I prepared earlier and without it, there will be another drama.

With a sigh, I turned around to step closer to the kitchen but paused hearing the conversation going on which is of course about me.

"I don't think she forgot the glass intentionally. Madam doesn't seem like that petty." So they realized I forgot the glass.

"She should forget it intentionally and it wouldn't be petty at all. The owner of this glass is acting too much like the future daughter-in-law of this house when Madam is already here. Madam has too much patience to not say anything." I closed my eyes before taking a deep breath.

"I seem to have forgotten the glass. Can anyone of you bring it over?" I called out without entering the kitchen and immediately there is the silence surrounding me.

"Thank you! I feel like every one of you is very efficient in handling the works in this house and I don't want any of you to get fired by getting caught by someone else during these gossip sessions. So, be careful about the words you say in this house." I calmly voiced out with a smile before walking away while trying to keep my smile intact.

Reaching the garden I found the guests talking to each other laughing which calmed down the moment I reached their sight but my smile didn't slip at all.

"Mom... Aunty! Here is your Tea with less sugar." I said passing the specific one after placing the tray on the table which she took without saying a word.

"Very sweet of you to remember that I don't drink Tea or Coffee and brought me Juice." I nodded at this guest who is the person earlier the staff is talking about.

"You are too health-conscious, dear. Even though you are taking a break from the projects, you still follow the diet with discipline. It is very difficult to find people with discipline these days." Aunty commented while giving her a genuine smile and at the same time poking me with those words.

After that, the others just laughed and continued to talk while I just stood there in silence and I don't know whether there is any difference between the furniture and me.

Checking the time, I turned around to walk back into the house knowing well he will be back by this time, and calmly passed the time while checking the magazine.

I smiled getting up when I saw him entering the house but the first thing he said was, "Where are they?"

This time I let the smile slip from my face which he realized before asking, "What happened?"

I sighed before saying, "If I tell you, will you really listen or just hear to my words before saying I am just imagining the things?"

"Not again, Shrishti!" he mumbled removing his necktie.

"I know! I am just being sensitive." I nodded before turning around and without pausing anywhere, reached our room before finally letting go of my fisted hands.

After sitting down on the chair near the window, I unlocked my phone to see a notification from Insta and it turned out to be from Anny which is just another post to tease Prathap.

I smiled looking at the post and this time it was genuine than any of my smiles earlier and somehow on instinct opened the contacts and typed his name but paused from pressing the call option.

No! Don't! Don't disturb them, Shrishti! Don't break your promise! You deserve all this! You deserve each one of these moments and don't take any kind of protection from your friends.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

I was the titan of Wall Street until an indictment and an ankle monitor turned my penthouse into a gilded cage. To save face, I was forced into a marriage with Elza, a "mute" girl from the Schmidt family whom I treated as nothing more than a silent piece of furniture while my empire crumbled. The night I was poisoned at a high-society gala, a mysterious server in an oversized uniform saved my life with terrifying, clinical precision. They disappeared into the night, leaving me with a silver cufflink and a burning obsession to find the shadow who held my life in their hands. Back home, I took my frustration out on Elza, telling her she was "exhausting to look at" and "smelled like sickness" after her charity visits. Her own family treated her like a stray dog, trying to humiliate her at the next gala by dressing her in what they claimed was a cheap knockoff while whispering to the press that she was nothing but a high-end escort. "Stay out of my way," I would growl at her, never noticing the steel in her eyes. I sat at my table, watching my rivals' stocks plummet and wondering who "The Zero"—the legendary financial ghost—really was. I never suspected that the woman I ignored was the same one solving the equations that were currently burning Manhattan to the ground. The injustice peaked when Elza stood before the city's elite, not as a victim, but as a queen. She dropped over a hundred million dollars to buy back her family’s legacy, revealing a secret fortune that made my own empire look like pocket change. As I grabbed her wrist and saw the small red mole hidden beneath her watch, the truth hit me like a physical blow. The silent wife I had despised was the savior I had been hunting, and she was finally done playing the victim. "We have a lot to talk about, wife," I whispered, realizing I had been sleeping next to the most dangerous woman in the world.

Sexy Behind The Mask

She hides behind ugly suits and fake names. He's done trusting women. When they meet in a masked sex club, neither realizes they've been fighting each other across boardroom tables for eighteen months. At Taylor Industries, she's Joy Smith-the frumpy CFO who drowns her curves in shapeless polyester and wearing a wig. At home, she's the forgotten wife of a cheating lawyer who hasn't touched her in so long she's starting to wonder if she's broken. When she finds hot pink lace panties stuffed in her couch cushions...definitely not hers, it's not heartbreak she feels. It's freedom. Grayson Taylor doesn't do relationships anymore. Not after walking in on his actress fiancée with another woman. Now he channels everything into hostile takeovers and board meetings, especially the ones where his overcautious CFO fights him on every goddamn acquisition. Joy Smith is brilliant, infuriating, and funny when he pushes all her buttons. But Honey is tired of being invisible. Tired of never having felt real pleasure. So, when her best friend gives her the details of The Velvet Room-Manhattan's most exclusive masked club-she promises herself just one night. One night to find out if her husband's right, if she really is frigid, or if she's just never been touched by the right hands. She doesn't expect the masked stranger who claims her the second she walks in. Doesn't expect the chemistry that ignites between them, the way he makes her body sing, or the orgasms that leave her shaking. Doesn't expect him to hand her an email address with one command: "Only me. No one else touches you."
