The first thing I felt was the cold marble against my cheek. Then, the sharp, metallic smell of my own blood. My husband, Ryan Scott, stood over me, his face twisted with hateful satisfaction as I drew my last breath on the execution platform. He blamed me for something I didn't do, for the deaths of a woman and her son he was obsessed with. My powerful family, once my shield, was destroyed; my father, executed. I woke with a gasp in my New York penthouse, the sun streaming through the windows – it was today, the day it all began again. My chief of staff called, panicked, about Ryan' s public protest demanding the release of an immigrant woman and her son, accused spies. In my first life, I begged Ryan to stop, used my family' s influence to deport them, and they were executed by their home country, sealing my fate. Ryan' s love turned to a decade of simmering hatred that ended with my own brutal execution. But this time, as he stormed into our bedroom, accusing me, I knew he remembered it all too, yet learned nothing. He tried to humiliate me, then bombed our penthouse to erase me from his twisted new timeline. I barely escaped, only to see him planning a full-blown coup, foreign mercenaries at his side, ready to burn Washington to the ground. Why was he doing this? Why was he still so blind, so obsessed with a foreign national, willing to betray everything for her? And why was I the only one who remembered the true depths of his depravity? Not this time. I called his uncle, activated a secret family pact, and set in motion a battle for the fate of our nation, determined to ensure the history I knew would never repeat itself.

Introduction

The first thing I felt was the cold marble against my cheek.

Then, the sharp, metallic smell of my own blood.

My husband, Ryan Scott, stood over me, his face twisted with hateful satisfaction as I drew my last breath on the execution platform.

He blamed me for something I didn't do, for the deaths of a woman and her son he was obsessed with.

My powerful family, once my shield, was destroyed; my father, executed.

I woke with a gasp in my New York penthouse, the sun streaming through the windows – it was today, the day it all began again.

My chief of staff called, panicked, about Ryan' s public protest demanding the release of an immigrant woman and her son, accused spies.

In my first life, I begged Ryan to stop, used my family' s influence to deport them, and they were executed by their home country, sealing my fate.

Ryan' s love turned to a decade of simmering hatred that ended with my own brutal execution.

But this time, as he stormed into our bedroom, accusing me, I knew he remembered it all too, yet learned nothing.

He tried to humiliate me, then bombed our penthouse to erase me from his twisted new timeline.

I barely escaped, only to see him planning a full-blown coup, foreign mercenaries at his side, ready to burn Washington to the ground.

Why was he doing this?

Why was he still so blind, so obsessed with a foreign national, willing to betray everything for her?

And why was I the only one who remembered the true depths of his depravity?

Not this time.

I called his uncle, activated a secret family pact, and set in motion a battle for the fate of our nation, determined to ensure the history I knew would never repeat itself.

I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.
