Chapter 1 BROKEN 💔

I was so tired after a long day in school just for me to walk home and find Martha and Francis screaming at each other, my parents are just the worst, I look past them without even offering a hello and go straight to my room upstairs. I plan on taking a brief nap before going down for some food but I end up sleeping till dinner, while half asleep I hear mom walking into my room ,I know it's her because of that ridiculous slippers she likes wearing indoors that makes so much noise than she realizes .

She sits by my bed and taps me gently on the shoulder when I don't stir she takes a deep breath and then taps me again, this time I gently sit up and ask her whats wrong,she says it to me directly no beating around the bush."your dad and I are getting a divorce, as you know things haven't been great between us and I don't want you guys growing up and thinking this is how things are between couples so it's better we get a divorce ". I look at her wanting to ask who brought up the Idea but I already know who,so I just smile and tell her it's okay that we'll be fine ,she says thank you sweetheart and walks out.

When she's gone I sit down on my bed and laugh for about 30seconds ,then I stop, wondering why I was laughing in the first place

I look out my window and stare into the night then I hear something calling my name vera it was so faint I thought I imagined it but it called again ,I was about to ask who's there but before I could mom called me from down stairs "sweetheart come down for dinner and bring pete along" .I quickly jump down from my bed ignoring my imagination and going to find my cute little brother who I hadn't seen the whole day.I walk into his room ,pete mom said it's time for dinner where are you ,I don't see him in the bathroom or under the bed I start to panic but thats when I hear his little sobs in the closet ,I open it and join him in silence, I ask whats wrong and he says "I don't want mom and dad to split up" I tell him it's okay that we'll be fine ,he hugs me and I just can't help but cry.

We go down for dinner and mum and dad are already at table dad's already eating while mom is waiting for us ,when we sit down she says why did we take so long ,I say nothing and pete keeps quiet to,I could tell she knew by the look on her face that we'd been crying, so she said we should say grace and I did then we ate in complete silence. After dinner I went to my room after making sure pete got ready for bed and was tucked in ,he tells me he's a big boy but to me 6yrs is still a baby.I go through my routine before bed then I go on my knees to pray as mom taught me,she says prayer makes everything easier "Talk to God "she said so here i am talking to him. I go through the normal procedures i was taught thanks,mercy,then I pray for what I want.Talking to God in prayer always gave me peace but now I don't feel it anymore, I feel restless. I lie down after my little prayer and I close my eyes.

I hear my alarm blaring telling me it's time to wake up ,it's so annoying it makes me wonder why I even set it up in the first place, I wake up lazily and decide today's going to be my happy day,I'm going to pretend my life is perfect. I take a shower put on the nicest dress I have for school, put a little bit of makeup take my backpack and head downstairs for breakfast ,I don't need to worry about pete because mom handles him in the mornings. I greet everyone with a bright smile, mom looks happy when she sees me while dad looks shocked I'm smiling at him and he doesn't know how to respond .So I give pete a kiss on his cheek pick up an apple and leave mom says I should atleast have one pancake I say I'm good, I blow her a kiss and leave.

At school I meet Cindy, she's my BFF since kindergarten and I just love her she's the total opposite of my moody self and she's so pretty i wonder how we even became friends don't get me wrong I'm not ugly I'm just not as bubbly and confident as she is.Hey I say when she meets me and pulls me into a tight hug we walk hand in hand to class,it's our last year of high school so she wants us to do everything together because we're both applying to different colleges. We take our seats and the teacher goes on and on about something but I don't hear anything because I'm staring out the window at lost in thoughts, when I hear the voice say my name vera ,I listen carefully trying to find out if the voice is familiar, but I jolt suddenly when the teacher yells "vera damore can you tell us what's so intriguing out side "and the whole class starts laughing and thats when I realize this window faces the basketball court and some students are having try outs ,Cindy looks at me with amusement in her eyes and I just know I would never hear the end of it.During lunch time ,I tell Cindy I'll be back and go to the restroom, when I'm done ,I look at the mirror and I see someone behind me I turn and he's gone I look at the mirror again and he's there smiling at me ,I do what anyone would do I scream and i run.

THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: MARRY TO RIVAL'S SON

"Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable. Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it. "We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not." Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child. "The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs." A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life" "Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge. Mia Meyers was born to rule her father's empire (so she thought), until he named his bastard son heir instead. Stefan Sterling knows the sting of betrayal too. His father discarded him like trash. Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal: Marry for vengeance. Crush their fathers' legacies. Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything. Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?
