It was sharp seven on the dot when breakfast was served, Kimberly was still in bed as she had passed the day clubbing forgetting the following day was her first day in college, Mr. Jerk was on his way to the dining table he was already dressed for work, behind him was his arrogant wife she was equally dressed for work.

Kris told her husband not to worry that she was gonna go talk to her personally. After breakfast, Mr. Jerk left for the shoe factory, Mrs. Kris was still in the house getting ready to go meet Kimberly in her room. She gently climbed the stairs towards Kim's room, on her arrival she knocked her door room as it was closed. "Who's that?" Kimberly asked while shouting. "It's your mum," Mrs. Kris replied while waiting on her to open the door. Kimberly quickly stepped out of bed and rushed to open the door, her mum came in and sat next to her bed, she told her daughter to have a sit, she was about to have a conversation with her, Kimberly sat down and was waiting on her mum, Mrs. Kris cleared her throat and began, "Do you know your dad is angry with you?" Mrs. Kris asked while folding her arms around her waist. Kimberly was wondering why her dad was angry with her, she asked why her dad was angry with her and her mum said because of the kind of lifestyle she was engaging herself into. Her dad Mr. Jerk was brought up responsibly and as such did not tolerate Kim's attitude, each time he tried talking to her about it, her mum always tried convincing him she was gonna talk to her. Her mum advised her to be a good girl, the clock was ticking and time was passing, Kimberly got to the bathroom, took her bad and was preparing herself for school, it was her first day in college. Her mum left her and was now about to go join her husband at the shoe factory when she arrived the security guards accompanied her to the office, it was like a tradition, every morning when her car drove into the factory, there was always one guard who held her bag right to her office, Mrs. Kris West was a very arrogant lady, she never responded each time the poor greeted her. They faced this problem every time she was coming but had no choice, they had to continue greeting her for she was the boss's wife. Kimberly was already dressed for school, she wore a simple blue gown, a black pair of covered shoes, and a white school bag, her driver was down waiting for her to get done, it took her some seconds to get down, and the driver drove her to school, when she entered the school premises, she could see other beautiful cars just as the one they carried her into. There was a guard standing by each class, welcoming you and taking you to your sit, he did same for Kimberly as she was the last student to enter the class, the other students were already well seated, where Malyse was seated there was still space the guard asked her if she was comfortable sitting behind and she answered yes. She then sat beside Malyse, greeted her, and stayed quiet, she was so surprised to meet Jennifer and Shay in the same classroom as her. Jennifer already knew the kind of girl Kim was so pretended not to know her and remained comfortable in her seat. The teacher entered the class, introduced himself and asked the students to introduce themselves, they all introduced themselves and in Kim's turn she added she was the daughter of the one who owns "West Shoes", this was how her father's company was called, the teacher then told her he asked only for her name and not her status and she replied saying that was how she always introduced herself when someone asked anything concerning her, from the way she was expressing herself, the teacher already knew she was a troublesome girl and to avoid conflicts between himself and her family, he stayed quiet, gave his lectures and went out of class. During break, Malyse requested they go get something to eat, she followed Malyse and while going out someone called her and when she turned to check who the person was, she discovered it was Jennifer. She ignored her call and continued walking with Malyse, they arrived at the canteen, they gave their command and were waiting to be served. After eating they returned to class and we're discussing since they were having a free period at that time, "So tell me more about you," Kimberly asked.

Kim was happy knowing Malyse was from a respectable family, she had found someone with who she was going to be friends, Kimberly was from a rich family and only wanted to be around rich people. In the shoe factory, Jennifer's mum wasn't feeling fine it was only at 10 am that she called one of the staff to inform them that she would not be able to come to work because of her health issues, worst of it was that she had not cleaned Mrs. Kris office and she knew how problematic she was.

My five-year-old daughter was dying in the ICU, her heartbeat replaced by the continuous, electronic scream of a flatline. I gripped her cold hand, my throat sealed shut by a terror so absolute I couldn't even cry out. I dialed my husband Grayson's private number, the one reserved only for me and his assistants. He declined the call instantly. A second later, a text buzzed against my palm: "In a meeting. Do not disturb. Stop calling." Five miles away, Grayson was at a luxury gala, adjusting his silk tie and laughing with Belle Escobar. He told her I was just being "dramatic" and using our daughter's "fever" as an excuse to avoid the event. He had no idea Effie's heart had already stopped. When I finally reached our penthouse, soaked from the rain and carrying Effie's small socks in a plastic bag, Grayson didn't even look at me. He snapped at me for ruining the hardwood floors and asked if I'd left Effie with the nanny just to "feel sorry for myself." Three days later, while I buried our daughter in a small, lonely ceremony, Grayson was at the Hamptons. Belle posted a photo of him golfing with the caption: "A mental health day with the boys." He didn't even attend the funeral, but he returned home demanding I clear out Effie's room to make a study for Belle's son. The injustice burned through me until there was nothing left. I swallowed a handful of sleeping pills, desperate to join my daughter. But instead of the darkness, I woke up to blinding lights and the scent of Grayson's expensive cologne. I was standing in a ballroom, wearing a blue silk dress I had already burned. Above me, a banner read: "Happy 5th Birthday Kaiden & Effie." I was back, exactly one year before the tragedy. This time, I wasn't going to be the grieving wife. I was going to be their worst nightmare.

Trigger/Content Warning: This story contains mature themes and explicit content intended for adult audiences(18+). Reader discretion is advised. It includes elements such as BDSM dynamics, explicit sexual content, toxic family relationships, occasional violence and strong language. This is not a fluffy romance. It is intense, raw and messy, and explores the darker side of desire. ***** "Take off your dress, Meadow." "Why?" "Because your ex is watching," he said, leaning back into his seat. "And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.

For two years, I was the invisible force behind tech billionaire Kieran Douglas, convinced that our "private" romance was his way of protecting us from the tabloid spotlight. I managed his mergers, warmed his bed, and waited for a future that didn't exist. The illusion shattered at 6:00 AM when a Page Six alert debuted Kieran’s "real" romance with socialite Aspen Schneider. Before I could even process the betrayal, Kieran sent me a cold, professional text: "Order flowers for Aspen. Pink peonies. Her favorite." When I tried to walk away, my own mother called me a disgrace and threatened to lock my inheritance forever unless I married a sixty-year-old businessman to save her failing estate. At a high-society gala that same night, Aspen intentionally crushed my burned hand in front of the cameras, while Kieran stood by and dismissed me as a "mediocre assistant" who had overstayed her welcome. I stood in the cold New York rain, drenched in champagne and humiliation, realizing that every sacrifice I made for Kieran was a joke. I was a ghost in a penthouse that was never mine, discarded the moment his "soulmate" returned. To the world, I was just a placeholder whose time had run out. But Kieran forgot one thing: my father’s multi-million dollar trust fund unlocks the moment I legally marry. I didn't need love; I needed a signature and a shield. I walked into a discreet law firm and signed a marriage contract with a man I believed was the city’s most notorious, scandal-ridden playboy. I thought I was marrying a degenerate "beard" to buy my freedom and secure my revenge. I didn't realize the man who signed that paper wasn't a playboy at all, but Gaston Collins—the most powerful and dangerous man on Wall Street—and he had no intention of letting our fake marriage stay fake.
