My bachelor party in Vegas was supposed to be a modern celebration of love, a joint affair with my brilliant, beautiful fiancée, Sophia. But the flashing lights of the club turned into a blinding nightmare when her "gay best friend," Julian, drunkenly screamed that he was the father of her unborn child, revealing a betrayal that shattered my world. Sophia, utterly cold, confirmed it, then had the gall to demand I still marry her, raise Julian's baby, and even ordered me to retrieve her overnight bag from his lavish penthouse where I found her already moved in, curled in his lap, sharing an intimacy she'd denied me for years, as they mocked my shock and called me "insecure." The woman I'd chased for years, the Ivy League intellectual, stood there with her lover, confidently outlining a "modern compromise" where I was a mere placeholder, discarding five years of our life together with chilling condescension; how could I have been such a fool? Just as despair threatened to consume me, a drunken call from my long-lost college friend, Chloe, brought an unexpected confession of love and a radical offer: "What if I married you instead?" In that moment, a desperate, defiant spark ignited, steering me toward an improbable new beginning away from the toxic wreckage.

On my eighteenth birthday, the celestial pact hiding my aura finally expired. I stood on the rotting steps of the trailer, watching my foster family celebrate my eviction like they’d won the lottery. Brenda threw a liability waiver at me to sign, ensuring I’d never ask for a dime of their welfare checks again. Worse, her daughter Regina stood there smirking, flaunting the heirloom emerald bracelet she’d stolen from my secret stash—unaware it was a spiritual artifact soaked in fifty years of blood magic. "Consider it payment for room and board, freak," Regina sneered, forcing the silver band over her wrist. They thought they were discarding a burden. They didn't realize I was the only dam holding back a tidal wave of their own bad karma. As I signed the papers, voluntarily severing our ties, the air pressure plummeted. The bracelet began to constrict like a snake, turning Regina’s flesh a necrotic purple as the protection I offered vanished. Before they could scream, a matte black helicopter bearing the Sterling Industries crest descended onto the muddy lawn, blowing their plastic lawn chairs into the neighbor's yard. A man in a bespoke charcoal suit stepped out, ignoring the filth to bow before me. He looked at my terrified foster family and announced, "We are here to retrieve the Sterling heiress." I smiled at Regina, whose arm was already beginning to rot, and whispered, "Keep the bracelet. You'll need it to pay for the amputation."
