Chapter 1

[1]

I was an adopted daughter. To repay my adoptive parents, I never contacted my biological parents, not even to claim the inheritance they left after their death, just to avoid hurting my adoptive mother.

Then came the heatwave apocalypse.

My family found a traditional remedy for Davina to ensure she would have a son. Davina looked disgusted by the remedy. I took the opportunity to say that it wasn't a good time to have children. Davina secretly disposed of the remedy after hearing my advice.

Less than a week after the natural disaster struck, there was an artificial rainfall. My family thought the disaster was about to end. They found out that Davina had discarded the remedy because of my advice. They all blamed me for ending the family line and kicked me out of the house.

Soon, I died from the scorching heat.

In my next life, I inherited a large sum of money and used it to build a safe house. I wanted them to watch me enjoy the air conditioning and gourmet meals while I watched them face their demise.

After hanging up Mr. Smith's call, his words still echoed in my ears: "Your biological mother has passed away and left you an inheritance..."

I was adopted by my mom, who always told me to be grateful and repay kindness. Therefore, I couldn't have any contact with my biological mother; that was the true way to honor my adoptive mother.

"It's raining! It's raining!"

The raindrops pelted down outside, growing heavier and heavier. Cheers erupted both inside and outside the house, pulling me back to reality.

Davina suddenly turned her head, her smile vanishing as she glared at me with hatred, stepping closer with each word.

"Mary, you said this heatwave would last at least three months. I listened to you and gave up on having a son. Now look, it's raining, and the disaster ended in less than a week. Why did you do this to me?"

Everyone turned to look at me, their smiles fading.

My mom clapped her hands and wailed, "My precious grandson!"

"You owe me a son!" Davina lunged at me.

Panicking, I ran back to my room and locked the door.

Davina and my mom banged on the door, demanding I compensate them for their son and precious grandson.

Just then, after days of no signal, my phone received a message from the community.

It turned out to be man-made rain, meant to cool things down and provide some water, as we continued to face the disaster.

I loudly explained the situation to those outside, but it only fueled their anger.

"Man-made rain is a good sign. The disaster will end soon. The government won't abandon us. A little rain every few days is nothing to fear."

"What nonsense about an endless heatwave! I spent a fortune on charms and remedies from the pastor, and now they're useless because I missed the timing. My precious grandson!"

"Mary, why did I listen to you? I hate myself."

Davina hit herself in frustration.

Everyone rushed to stop her, while my brother shouted for me to come out and apologize.

My mom yelled even louder, "If saying sorry fixed everything, we wouldn't need the police! I knew this wretch was a bad luck charm, a curse, with a black heart. We should never have adopted her; we should have left her to fend for herself on the streets."

"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.

"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?
