First-Person POV Drama Contemporary CEO Heir/Heirness Regret Revenge Betrayal Hidden Identity

Blurb She wanted love. She wanted freedom. But what she got instead was heartbreak in its cruelest form. This is Alessia Marino’s story. Born into a ruthless mafia family, Alessia was suffocating under their rules and expectations. All she ever wanted was a life that was hers—to love freely, to breathe without fear. So she ran. She changed her name to Sienna Johnson, determined to start over and live like a normal woman. And for a while, she thought she’d found it all. A devoted husband, Gabriel. A sweet four-year-old daughter they’d adopted. And a best friend, Sylvia, who felt like the sister she never had. But paradise shattered in an instant. The truth hit her like a knife to the chest—Sylvia and Gabriel had been lovers all along, and the little girl she adored wasn’t adopted at all… she was theirs. Broken. Betrayed. Shattered beyond repair. But fate wasn’t done with her yet. When Desmond Blackwell, Gabriel’s powerful rival, offers her a chance at revenge, Alessia takes it without hesitation. Together, they plot to destroy the man who destroyed her. But the deeper she gets, the harder it becomes to ignore the pull she feels toward Desmond—dark, magnetic, and dangerous. And when the truth about who Desmond really is begins to unravel, Alessia realizes she might be walking straight into a trap… one that could cost her not just her heart, but her life.

Chapter: Awakening

Desmond’s POVThe feed froze on the front door.My heart slammed so hard it hurt.“Switch cameras,” I barked, already pulling my phone. No signal. Of course. Whoever planned this had thought of everything—layers upon layers of isolation, precision disguised as patience.Sienna was breathing too fast. I reached for her hand without looking, grounding both of us. “They’re not alone,” I said, forcing calm into my voice. “Security protocol doesn’t fail that easily.”But even as I said it, the screen glitched again.The feed changed.Our youngest’s room.Empty.The bedspread rumpled. Curtains swaying slightly, as if someone had just passed through.Sienna made a sound—sharp, broken—but she didn’t cry. She straightened, spine rigid, eyes blazing with something far more dangerous than fear.“Open the door,” she said to the camera. To them.The familiar voice chuckled softly. “Still negotiating. That’s why you lose.”“Where are my children?” she demanded.A pause. Just long enough to be delib

Chapter: Turbulence

Desmond’s POVI didn’t sleep after that message.I lay there listening to the house breathe—air vents humming, distant traffic, the soft rhythm of Sienna’s breaths beside me—and catalogued every risk I’d ever underestimated. Sylvia wasn’t reckless. She was precise. Messages like that weren’t threats; they were timers.By morning, the city felt different. Quieter. Like it was holding its breath.At breakfast, the kids were their usual whirlwind—cereal spills, arguments over cartoons—but Sienna barely touched her coffee. I watched her from across the table, the way her fingers stayed curled around the mug, knuckles pale.“You’re cancelling the charity luncheon?” I asked, keeping my voice neutral.She nodded. “And the interview. And the board dinner.”“That’s three appearances in forty-eight hours.”“Good,” she said. “Let it look sudden.”The housekeeper hovered nearby, pretending not to listen. I made a mental note. Everyone was a variable now.After the kids left with security, Sienna

Chapter: Nicked

Sienna’s POV The moment Desmond’s words settled between us, the house felt quieter than it had any right to be.Too quiet.The children’s laughter drifted in from the living room, bright and innocent, and it twisted something deep in my chest. They had no idea how close danger was circling us. No idea that their safety was being discussed like a chess move.I watched Desmond for a long second after he finished speaking, searching his face for hesitation. For doubt. For that familiar shadow of divided loyalty.But all I saw was resolve.It should’ve comforted me more than it did.“I want to believe you,” I said finally, pulling my hand from his gently, not angrily. “I really do. But belief isn’t what keeps us alive, Desmond. Preparation does.”His jaw tightened. “Then we prepare.”I nodded, stepping away to lean against the kitchen counter. My pulse was still racing, my mind replaying Sophia’s visit again and again—her measured tone, her polite smile, the sharp threat hidden beneath c

Chapter: Resolving

Desmond ‘s POV Her expression sharp, frustrated, and tired. My chest tightened. I could feel the tension radiating from her even before she spoke.“Desmond…” she started, her voice low but firm, “we need to be careful. Sylvia isn’t bluffing. And Sophia… she’s trying to interfere. She came here today to warn me to stay away from you.”I frowned, running a hand through my hair. “Sienna… Sophia was just… making sure everything stays smooth. You know how complicated things are in my world.”Her eyes narrowed, and I saw the hurt flicker across her face. “Smooth? She tried to manipulate me, Desmond! And you… you didn’t even defend me!”I sighed, knowing she was right, yet trying to explain myself. “Sienna… I didn’t ignore it. I just… I know how to handle it without escalating things. Sophia… she’s part of the bigger picture. She has responsibilities, obligations I can’t ignore. I’m not agreeing with her—I’m being realistic.”Her voice grew sharper. “Realistic? You mean you’re siding with h

Chapter: Desmond’s Attitude

Sienna’s POVThe penthouse was unusually quiet when I finally got a moment to speak to Desmond. The kids were occupied with their toys, quietly playing under the watchful eye of the cameras I had installed in every corner for emergencies. My heart was still racing from Sophia’s visit, and the weight of her warning pressed down on me like a stone.I found him in the living room, pacing slowly as though the tension in the air didn’t exist. His expression was calm—too calm, as if he already knew what I was going to say.“Desmond,” I began, my voice careful but firm. “We need to talk. Now.”He stopped pacing and looked at me, tilting his head slightly. “What’s going on, Sienna?” His voice was calm, almost casual, but I could see the flicker of curiosity in his eyes.I took a deep breath, forcing myself to stay steady. “Sophia came here today. She… she tried to warn me to stay away from you.”His brows lifted slightly, a small smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. “Warn you? Really?” He

Chapter: Sophia’s Visit

Sienna’s POVThe penthouse felt unusually still that afternoon. The soft hum of the city below usually brought a comforting rhythm, but today it only amplified the unease I felt in my chest. The kids were playing quietly in the living room, their laughter muted, but it didn’t reach me. My thoughts were tangled in worry over Desmond, Gabriel, and the ever-present shadow of Sylvia’s threat.A soft chime at the doorbell made me start. I frowned, exchanging a look with Maya. “Mom… who is that?” she whispered.I hesitated. “I’ll check,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. I wasn’t expecting anyone. Not now. Not with everything going on.I walked to the door and peeked through the peephole. My heart sank slightly when I saw her—Sophia. The woman my father had insisted I keep distance from, the one tied to Desmond’s forced obligations. Her bright smile and confident stance immediately set off alarms in my mind.Taking a deep breath, I opened the door. “Sophia,” I said carefully. “What brin

Werewolf

Nineteen-year-old Alyra Stevens thought finding her mate would save her from a lifetime of pain. After years of cruelty under her stepmother’s roof, Liam, the charming heir to the Silver Moon Pack, was her light. He was her promise of freedom. Until the night she found him standing over a dead maiden’s body. To protect the man she loved, Alyra took the blame. But instead of saving her, Liam betrayed her, sending her to Red Mountain: the cursed domain of Viktor Draven, the Lycan King feared even by the gods. Viktor was the monster every child grew up hearing about: merciless, cursed, and desperate. For years, he had hunted maidens from every supernatural realm, sacrificing them one by one in hopes of resurrecting his long-dead Luna. Alyra was meant to be the last—the one who would finally end the curse. But the moment he touched her, something shifted. Her scent stirred the beast in him. Her defiance set his blood on fire. She was not a sacrifice. She was temptation itself. Now Viktor faces the cruelest choice of all: to kill the woman fate sent to destroy him… or to defy destiny and watch his kingdom burn.

Chapter: The Alpha’s Call

ALYRA I thought my nineteen years on earth were finally over. Flat on the cold ground, wrists tied, dust in my mouth, I could barely breathe. The guard in front of me raised a silver blade—the kind used for traitors, rogues, and unlucky omegas like me. My heart thudded so hard it drowned out every other sound. I shut my eyes, waiting for the slice, the pain, the nothingness— “Stop!” The word hit like thunder. Everything froze. Even the air seemed to pause. I felt the weight of power roll across the courtyard before I saw him. Then a shadow fell over me, blotting out the light. He stepped between me and the guard in one smooth motion, his hand wrapping around the man’s wrist. The silver blade slipped from his grip and clattered to the ground. “I said stop.” His voice was low and dangerous, the kind that didn’t need to shout to command fear. From where I lay, I could only see his back—broad shoulders, muscle shifting beneath black leather. When he turned, his green eyes met
