She spent six years loving him. Six years planning forever.
But on the eve of her dream wedding, Adrianna Rodriguez is forced to watch it all shatter, her groom, Damien Blackwood, is marrying someone else.
Not just anyone. Her dying sister.
Katherina’s final wish? To wear the dress Adrianna was supposed to wear and to marry the man she thought was hers. It was supposed to be a sacrifice. It felt like betrayal.
Offered half of Damien’s empire as compensation, Adrianna is left broken into pieces and silenced. But broken hearts don’t stay quiet forever.
What happens when love demands too much?
When family guilt disguises cruelty?
When forgiveness is no longer an option?
In a world of twisted loyalty and secrets buried as sacrifice, Adrianna must choose walk away quietly… or turn heartbreak into revenge.

“She wants to marry me,” Damien said, his voice thick with emotion. “It’s her last wish.”
Adrianna’s breath caught in her throat. The perfect wedding, the life they had planned, the vows they were going to say all seemed to fall apart in front of her.
“My wedding,” she whispered, her voice trembling with heartbreak, “was supposed to be our day.”
Damien stepped closer, desperation in his eyes. “I’m offering you half my properties. Two million dollars. I want you to understand… this isn’t just about money. It’s about family.”
Her jaw clenched. Anger began to burn inside her like a wildfire. “Compensation? Is that what I am to you? A deal? A consolation prize?”Something you can pay off?”

Chapter: When the Devil Wears InnocenceTHE MORNING AFTER – BLACKWOOD HEADQUARTERSAmelia stepped into the elevator just as Damien stepped out.Their eyes locked.“Chairwoman,” he said coolly.She raised a brow. “Former CEO.”A beat of silence passed between them.“You enjoying your new power?” Damien asked.She didn’t answer.He stepped closer. “Must be nice taking what you didn’t build.”Amelia’s voice lowered, smooth and cutting. “I rebuilt what you and your wife failed to hold together. This isn’t personal. It’s just business.”Something shifted in Damien’s eyes recognition? No. Not quite. Confusion. Hunger. Maybe both.“I saw you today,” he said, voice rough. “At the office.”She stilled, breath catching in her throat.“I didn’t mean to walk in on you, but…”“But now you can’t stop thinking about it?” she finished, cool and quiet.He didn’t deny it. Just stared at her.“Tell me something, Amelia,” he asked, jaw taut. “Are you the kind of woman who sleeps her way to power?”“No,” she whispered, brushing past him, her v

Chapter: The Heat Above The SkylineThe skyline glowed outside Amelia’s office, twin reflections of steel and fire stretching across the glass as the sun dipped. It was late, nearly seven, and Blackwood Tower was quieter than usual executives were gone, drained from the today work, decisions had been made, strategies already been sent in private emails.But inside the Chairwoman’s penthouse level office, the tension wasn’t professional.It was personal. And pulsing.Amelia stood by the window, arms folded, her navy-blue silk blouse soft against her skin. Her heels were off. Her bare feet pressed into the marble floor as she scanned a projected dashboard financials, restructuring data, and projections for the new clean-energy division.Her heels were off. Her blouse was unbuttoned at the throat. She stood at her table, slender fingers gliding across a sleek architectural blueprint. One of two versions. The real one.The glass doors clicked open.She didn’t turn. She didn’t need to.Miguel Favino’s scent cologne laced wit

Chapter: Whispers and TrapsThe boardroom gleamed with glass and steel, every shiny surface catching the light like a sharp blade.Amelia Blackwood stood at the head of the table, her back straight and face unreadable.Her power wasn’t loud it was quiet, controlled, and dangerous.Behind her, the Blackwood Industries crest shone like a crown she had claimed for herself.“Agenda item one,” she said calmly, “Immediate removal of redundant executives and a full audit of our international branches.”Silence filled the room not respectful, but heavy with fear and bruised pride.A grey-haired man at the far end of the table cleared his throat.“Chairwoman Blackwood,” he said, the title catching in his throat like broken glass, “is this a restructuring… or a purge?”She gave a cold smile. “Call it whatever helps you sleep at night. I call it cutting company costs.”No one said a word after that.Behind her calm eyes, the war had already begun.Katherina had forced her into the spotlight spreading whispers meant to spar

Chapter: The New Order PRESENT DAYThe morning light slipped through the tall glass windows of Amelia Stone’s penthouse, quietly shining on her moment of victory.Below, the city sparkled completely unaware that its biggest empire had just been taken over.Amelia sat cross-legged at the edge of her lounge chair, with her laptop resting on her knees.The screen lit up her face, highlighting the sharp angles of her cheekbones. Her fingers moved quickly and precisely over the keyboard.This wasn’t just regular work this was strategy. A silent war hidden behind spreadsheets and business memos.Her phone buzzed. A stream of messages lit up the screen:“Team landed. Awaiting final go.”“Press release locked. Noon drop confirmed.”“Message from Love of my life: I am with Leo at the aquarium. Little man misses you.” Xoxo baby A quiet smile flickered on her lips small, but real. Victory was sweet, but this… this was power. It had taken her four years to crawl from the wreckage, rebuild brick by bloody brick. And no

Chapter: The Birth Of Amelia Stone Flashback Four Years Ago That night, the rain fell in heavy sheets wild, loud, and thunderousAdrianna could barely see the road through the heavy rain. She sat quietly in the back seat while the cab driver struggled to see ahead, the windshield wipers moving wildly like they were trying to fight the storm. His fingers gripped the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles turning white. Cold air from the storm crept through the cracks of her coat. Her suitcase sat beside her, and in her coat pocket was her passport and a one-way ticket to Florence a place that felt so far away, she thought to herself.She wasn’t just running away.She was escaping.There’s a big difference.Escaping from Damien Blackwood’s cruelty. From Katherina’s hateful whispers and betrayal. From all the lies, the mind games, and the constant feeling that her life was being controlled by people who smiled sweetly while hiding sharp, bloodstained teeth.Her lips trembled as she whispered a prayer through clenched tee

Chapter: The Return Of The Unknown Queen The Blackwood boardroom buzzed with the low murmur of confusion. A dozen suited executives filed in, murmuring among themselves, It was rare for the entire board to be called in so early, especially with no agenda attached to the meeting invite. Suits shifted in leather chairs, phones were discreetly checked under the table, and speculation spread like electricity through the air.“Emergency shareholder meeting?” whispered the CFO to the man beside him.“No. Nothing went out from legal,” came the quiet reply. At the end of the long mahogany table sat Damien Blackwood, freshly shaved, his navy-blue tie knotted a little too tightly, his eyes flicking to the double doors. The email summoning them had been brief and mysterious: “Mandatory attendance. Executive leadership restructure.”No sender listed.No agenda attached.Beside him, Katherina adjusted the platinum brooch on her blazer, her red lipstick flawless. She glanced at her wristwatch and then at Damien. “You sure this meeting w
