Shattered Vows
Hidden behind corporate walls and polished smiles lies a marriage no one knows about.
Althea Rivera, a brilliant marketing head, is secretly married to Damian Navarro, the cold yet powerful CEO of Navarro Group. Their love began in secrecy and continued that way because Damian insisted no one must know.
But Damian’s public life tells a different story. To the world, he’s in love with Celine Vargas, his charming secretary.
When the company holds a corporate retreat at a luxury resort owned by Damian’s estranged twin brother, Darius Navarro, fate plays its cruelest trick. One night, after a few drinks and too many heartaches, Althea mistakes Darius for her husband. Passion ignites, truth blurs and her world shatters.
As secrets unravel, loyalties are tested, and love becomes tangled in lies, Althea must face a haunting question:
Who truly owns her heart the man she vowed to love, or the man she accidentally gave her soul to?

Chapter: Chapter 100 – The Final VowChapter 100 – The Final Vow(AN: I'll give you all a longer chapter, the last chapter of Althea's and Darius life. And I hope you still support me in my upcoming books. thank you everyone)The sea stretched endlessly before me, a canvas of shifting colors that mirrored the turbulence of my past. I let the wind whip through my hair, tugging at my scarf, carrying the scent of salt and freedom. It had been years since I first stepped onto this shore, that fateful place where everything—love, heartbreak, betrayal, and growth—had begun. And yet, now, standing here, I felt the weight of every memory, every scar, every lesson, settle into something calmer. Something I could finally hold without pain.Darius walked beside me, his hand brushing against mine in that familiar, comforting way. I didn’t need to look at him to know he was there; I felt him, steady and real, a reminder that I wasn’t alone anymore. The chaos, the heartbreak, the l

Chapter: Chapter 99 – The Reunion of SoulsChapter 99 – The Reunion of SoulsThe sea smelled the same as it did years ago—the briny tang of salt, the gentle roar of waves meeting the shore. I walked barefoot along the sand, letting the cool water wash over my feet, feeling it pull me back to memories I hadn’t dared touch in a long time.“This place…” I whispered to myself, though Darius walked quietly beside me. “It hasn’t changed at all.”“Some things never do,” he said softly, his hand brushing mine. He didn’t need to hold it—just the contact was grounding—but I appreciated it anyway.I stopped near the water’s edge, looking out at the endless horizon. It felt infinite, full of possibility. And yet, a part of me still lingered on what had been lost—the mistakes, the heartbreak, the ghosts of Damian and the years of turmoil we had endured.“I thought I’d never come back here,” I admitted, my voice barely above the whisper of the waves. “I thought ret

Chapter: Chapter 98 – The Legacy Lives On
Chapter 98 – The Legacy Lives OnThe office smelled faintly of polished wood and fresh ink, a reminder of the care we had poured into Navarro over the past months. It wasn’t the same empire Damian had built—at least not entirely—but it was ours now. Different, honest, and tempered by the mistakes of the past.I walked through the halls, clipboard in hand, stopping to smile at familiar faces. Employees who had once been intimidated by the Navarro name now greeted me warmly, some with nods of respect, others with genuine affection. It felt… right. Balanced.Darius came up beside me, his presence quiet but steady. “How’s the report coming?” he asked, glancing at the papers I held.I looked up, smiling. “Almost done. We just need final approvals from the board.”He chuckled softly. “You’ve become more efficient than I ever imagined. Sometimes I wonder if you even sleep.”I shrugged lightly. “Sleep is overrate

Chapter: Chapter 97 – The Book She WroteChapter 97 – The Book She WroteThe house was quiet again, but this time it was the kind of quiet that hummed with purpose. The kind of quiet that filled the room with possibilities rather than emptiness. I sat at my desk, pen in hand, notebook open, staring at the blank page for a long time before writing the first words.“Shattered Vows,” I whispered to myself. The title alone made my chest tighten, a reminder of everything I had lived through—the love, the lies, the heartbreak, the forgiveness, and the slow, painstaking rebuilding of myself.I glanced out the window. The ocean stretched endlessly, waves rolling with steady rhythm, constant and forgiving. I let my eyes linger there for a moment, drawing strength from the horizon, and then I turned back to my notebook.Writing was different from thinking. Thinking was messy, full of doubts and fears. Writing demanded honesty, clarity. I had to confront my past, word

Chapter: Chapter 96 – The Daughter’s Lullaby
Chapter 96 – The Daughter’s LullabyThe house was quiet now, the kind of quiet that only comes after the day’s chaos has settled. The sound of the waves against the shore was faint through the open window, a steady rhythm that always reminded me of life moving forward, even when it felt like it wouldn’t.I peeked into my daughter’s room. She was already tucked under her blanket, eyes half-closed, but still clutching the small stuffed bear she had named after me—Althea Bear, naturally. She looked so peaceful, so innocent, and for a moment I let myself marvel at it. At her. At this tiny human who carried pieces of both Darius and me, yet was entirely her own person.I sat down on the edge of her bed and stroked her hair.“Mom?” she murmured, eyes fluttering open. “Are you staying?”“Always,” I whispered. “I’m staying.”She yawned, snuggling closer. “Tell me a story. About you. About life before me. Abo

Chapter: Chapter 95 – The Whisper of Waves
Chapter 95 – The Whisper of WavesThe sound of the waves was hypnotic, a steady rhythm that seemed to echo the beat of my own heart. I sat on the edge of the wooden dock, toes dangling just above the water, watching the horizon fade into shades of pink and gold as the sun slowly dipped below it. Darius was nearby, leaning against the railing, hands folded loosely, watching the sky as though it could somehow hold all the answers to the questions we had carried for years.“You ever think about how far we’ve come?” I asked softly, almost to myself.Darius turned his head, eyes meeting mine, gentle but full of that unwavering focus he always had when he looked at me. “All the time,” he said. “I don’t think I’ve ever been more aware of it than right now. Every choice, every mistake… it led us here.”I laughed quietly, shaking my head. “Sometimes I can’t even believe it. That girl I was—the one who couldn’t see past her fea

Chapter: 20Chapter 20 — Shadows and BladesLyra’s POVThe morning sun barely touched the top of the towers when I woke, heart pounding, a tension I couldn’t shake. My wolf was already alert, shifting beneath my skin, restless and sharp. Something was coming—I could feel it, like the wind before a storm, like the first tremor of an earthquake.I dressed quickly, ignoring the chill, and made my way to the courtyard. The guards were alert, more than usual. Ronan was already there, his eyes scanning the perimeter, posture rigid.“You sensed it too,” I said quietly as I approached him.He nodded, jaw tight. “Yes. Selene isn’t going to wait. She’s planning something today. I can feel it.”My wolf growled softly. Then let her come.The training yard was empty, silent except for the occasional clink of weapons from the distant armory. I moved with awareness, eyes sweeping, every sense tuned. The pack

Chapter: 19Chapter 19 — Fire in the ShadowsLyra’s POVThe courtyard was empty when I arrived, save for the scattered remnants of morning mist. The sun hadn’t fully risen, casting a pale glow across the stone floor. I liked mornings like this—quiet, still, deceptive. Nothing ever stayed quiet for long in Blackthorn.I stretched my arms, feeling the tension in my muscles. My wolf stirred beneath my skin, eager. Something is coming.I froze, listening. The faintest shift, a whisper of movement near the training hall. I wasn’t sure if it was wind or instinct—but my body knew.Stay alert.I nodded.Ronan appeared without a sound, as if he had been watching me the whole time. His presence was a constant weight beside me. Not overbearing, not possessive, just… grounding.“You’re tense,” he said softly.“I know,” I admitted. “Something feels off.”He didn’t speak for

Chapter: 18Chapter 18 — Power StirringLyra’s POVThe morning light filtered through the tall windows of the training hall, painting the stone floor with streaks of gold. I could hear the pack moving outside, their footsteps a steady rhythm that matched the pounding in my chest. Something had shifted since the feast, since the killings, since the bond with Ronan had snapped into place. I wasn’t just surviving anymore—I was being watched, measured, feared.I ran a hand down my arm, feeling the tension beneath my skin. My wolf stirred, restless, eager. They’ve seen you now. They know what you are.I swallowed hard. “And what am I?” I whispered.The storm they can’t control.The thought sent a shiver through me.Ronan arrived soon after, his boots echoing against the stone floor. He didn’t speak at first. He just stood, arms crossed, eyes fixed on me like he could see every thought I tried

Chapter: 17Chapter 17 — Ripples in the PackLyra’s POVThe aftermath of last night hung over the Blackthorn compound like a storm cloud, heavy and restless. Every hallway, every corner, every shadow seemed to watch me, whispering. Moon-marked… dangerous… survivor… The words didn’t leave my mind, and neither did the taste of what I’d done.I hadn’t meant to kill him—at least not in the conscious sense—but my wolf had acted. The instincts I’d tried to ignore had taken over, sharp and swift and absolute. And now everyone knew.I was the Moon-marked. The one to fear. The one no Alpha—or anyone else—could underestimate.I woke to the sun creeping through the slits of the high windows in my room. The guards were already gone, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I stretched, listening to the distant sounds of the pack moving, training, waking. The air was alive with whispers of yesterday’s feast, of the dead assa

Chapter: 16Chapter 16 — The Weight of ClaimLyra’s POVThe moment I opened my eyes, I knew nothing would ever feel normal again.The cell was cold. Not freezing, but cold enough to make every muscle in my body ache. Stone walls pressed in on all sides, and the only light came from a small barred window high above, casting a narrow strip of gray across the floor. I shivered, pulling my knees to my chest, trying to convince myself that I could think clearly.But thinking clearly was the first thing I couldn’t do.The memory of last night—the Council, the whispers, the way every wolf in the room had looked at me, weighing me like I was meat—still burned.And then there was Ronan.He hadn’t left. Not really. I could feel him outside, pacing. Waiting. Protecting. I hated that I wanted to feel protected. I hated that his presence calmed me. But part of me couldn’t help it.I rose slowly, stretching,

Wolves ran drills, practicing moves I didn’t yet understand but could feel in my bones. Every step, every swing of a weapon, every measured breath reminded me of the world I was trapped in. And the world I might change.Ronan was already there, standing at the edge of the training ground, watching. His eyes never left me. Not once.“Stay focused,” he said as I approached, his voice low. “Every movement counts.”I nodded, though I wasn’t sure if I could. My body still felt heavy from yesterday. From what I had done.I swallowed the memory of the man I had killed. It wasn’t like me—my human side still protested—but my wolf… she hadn’t hesitated. She had taken over, and for the first time, I understood what she was capable of.Ronan came closer. “You can’t hold back,” he said. “Not now. Not ever.”

Chapter: 80CHAPTER 80 Liana PovThe courthouse was buzzing with an unusual energy that morning, a mixture of triumph and apprehension. The official paperwork for Marcus Delgado’s arrest had been processed overnight, and agents were coordinating to ensure everything went smoothly. The man who had terrorized colleagues, manipulated clients, and threatened anyone in his way was finally being held accountable.Ethan and I arrived early, slipping through the side entrance to avoid the press frenzy. I could feel my pulse racing—not from fear this time, but from the weight of the moment. After months of strategizing, sleepless nights, and tense confrontations, this chapter of our lives was finally coming to a close.“He’s really going to be gone,” I whispered, almost to myself, as we approached the holding area.Ethan glanced at me, his eyes steady. “Yes. And we’ll make sure he stays gone. For good.”I nodded, taking a deep br

Chapter: 79CHAPTER 79 Liana PovThe next morning, the city seemed quieter than usual, almost holding its breath, as if aware of the climax we were approaching. The court had scheduled a pre-trial hearing for Marcus Delgado, and every detail we had prepared—the evidence, the witness testimonies, the media coordination—was about to be scrutinized under the public eye.Ethan arrived at my apartment before dawn. I was already awake, sifting through documents, double-checking every fact, every email chain, every bank record. My fingers felt stiff from the hours of typing and highlighting, but I couldn’t stop. Not now. Not when Marcus Delgado’s empire of lies was finally unraveling.“You’ve been at it for hours,” Ethan remarked, concern threading his voice as he entered, carrying a briefcase and coffee. “You need to eat something before the court. Focus is useless on an empty stomach.”I managed a small smile. “I’m fine. Just… making

Chapter: 78CHAPTER 78 Liana PovThe morning air outside my apartment felt heavier than usual, thick with tension I couldn’t shake. Marcus Delgado had been cornered, but cornered predators were unpredictable. I knew he could strike at any moment—and this time, he might aim for maximum chaos.Ethan arrived before I could finish breakfast, his brow furrowed, coffee in hand. “Morning,” he said without ceremony. “We’ve got a situation. Marcus is attempting a public statement—press conference downtown. NBI thinks it’s his final attempt to sway public opinion before the trial.”I froze. “A press conference? He could spin lies, twist facts… damage everything we’ve worked for.”Ethan nodded. “Exactly. And he’s counting on the media frenzy to distract investigators. But we’ve got a plan. We coordinate with NBI and the press corps. Preemptive statements, verified evidence, and tight security. Nothing slips through.”I took a

Marcus Delgado was cornered, but cornered predators were the most dangerous kind.Ethan arrived earlier than usual, his presence calm but purposeful. He didn’t speak at first, only setting a stack of files on the kitchen table. I followed him, coffee in hand, trying to match his focus.“Morning,” he said, finally. “We’ve got a situation.”I raised an eyebrow. “Situation? You mean Marcus?”He nodded. “Exactly. He’s not going quietly. Rumors are flying that he’s trying to manipulate a key witness outside official channels. Someone he believes we can’t protect.”I froze for a moment, the weight of the words settling. “Outside the NBI’s reach?”“Poten

Chapter: 76CHAPTER 76 Liana PovThe courthouse was buzzing before I even stepped inside. Cameras flashed, reporters whispered, and the tension was thick enough to taste. Marcus Delgado’s name had dominated the news cycle for days, and now the public and media presence made the stakes feel almost surreal.Ethan walked beside me, his presence steady, grounding. His hand brushed mine as we approached the main doors—brief, unintentional, yet electric. I didn’t react outwardly, but my chest tightened. Focus, I reminded myself. Focus.Inside, the courtroom smelled faintly of polished wood and nervous anticipation. Marcus sat at the defense table, impeccably dressed, though the sharp lines of his suit couldn’t mask the tension in his eyes. He scanned the room like a predator, aware, calculating.I took a deep breath and whispered to Ethan, “Stay close.”He gave me a small nod, his hand lingering near mine. “Always.”

The streets moved as usual, the sky painted in shades of pale blue and gold, but inside my apartment, the tension was electric. Marcus Delgado’s empire was teetering, and the next moves we made could either finalize his downfall or give him just enough room to claw back.I sat at the dining table, surrounded by stacks of files, laptop screens glowing with email chains, financial statements, and witness statements. Ethan was beside me, leaning over my shoulder, scrolling through a particularly dense spreadsheet.“Look here,” he said, pointing at a series of transactions. “Marcus attempted to move funds through a third-party account last night. If this succeeds, he could claim financial irregularities were due to external mismanagement, not him.”I frowned. “Then we need to lock it down immediately.
