Dear husband I can live without you
I want a divorce.”
Andy blinked. “Divorce? You’re joking.”
But Anna wasn’t smiling. “No, Andy. I’m done. I won’t share a roof with you and your mistress.”
Andy scoffed. “Be serious, Anna. You can’t live without me. You need me.”
Anna’s smile turned deadly. “Oh, you think so?”
She stepped closer, her voice sharp as a dagger. “Watch me, dear husband. I can live without you.”
***
She walked away with nothing—except her pride.
When Anna Roberts discovers her husband has moved his mistress into their home, she makes the boldest decision of her life: divorce. With only her son and her dignity, she steps into an unfamiliar world determined to start over.
Mocked for her weight, underestimated by everyone—including herself—Anna transforms her pain into power. She works, she fights, and she rebuilds. Soon, she’s no longer the woman Andy could belittle… she’s the woman he’ll never deserve again.
But then there’s Gerald Smith.
Her powerful, disciplined boss. The man who never mixes business with pleasure.
Until Anna.
What begins as temptation spirals into something dangerous—something forbidden. Gerald knows one wrong step could ruin them both, but walking away from Anna might destroy him more.
Anna thought her divorce was the end of her story.
But it was only the beginning.

Chapter: EPILOGUEA YEAR LATER. “I can't believe this is truly happening,” Gerald whispered into Anna's ear, his warm breath sending shivers down her spine as his arms wrapped around her waist from behind. “Me too,” Anna murmured, a smile lighting up her face as she stared at her reflection in the full-length mirror. Her white wedding gown clung to her in all the right places, flowing gracefully to the floor. She felt like a queen, a goddess, a woman who had finally come home to herself. Gerald’s face was a picture of unrestrained joy. His blue eyes shimmered like morning stars piercing through dawn, and Anna felt heat rise to her cheeks. Her heart fluttered, skipping beats like a song with a missing chord. “You look so beautiful,” Gerald said softly, pressing a tender kiss to the nape of her neck. “Thank you,” she whispered, the pink creeping across her cheeks like a sunrise over a calm lake. “Somebody’s blushing…” he teased, a playful smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. Anna swatted

Chapter: Chapter 200: It's over“Holy Mary, mother of God!” A collective gasp tore through the hall.Gerald froze, his legs trembling beneath him. He swayed, almost collapsing. Anna…? Could it really be her? My Anna… alive? His throat tightened, and a lump of disbelief lodged in his chest. Tears blurred the edges of the world. Every nerve in his body screamed at him: Don’t let her go, don’t let her disappear again.Anna’s lips curved into that soft, radiant smile he knew too well, the one that had haunted his dreams for years. Every memory, every longing, came rushing back in a violent, intoxicating wave. Her voice, that warmth, that familiar gentleness… it was all real. She was alive.Penelope’s heels clattered against the marble as she stumbled, frozen in shock. Her eyes widened like a cornered animal. “No… no… this can’t be,” she whispered, shaking her head violently. “Anna… Anna is dead. She… she can’t have survived that fire!”Anna’s chuckle cut through the room, cool and sharp, carrying a weight of satisfactio

Chapter: Chapter 199: The weapon fashioned against you The next morning, sunlight streamed into Anna’s mansion as she stood before her full-length mirror dressed in a stunning champagne-colored gown. The shinny fabric hugged her curves beautifully, the high slit showing off her gorgeous leg. Her hair was pulled into a sleek ponytail that fell like a golden waterfall down her back.Today was the opening of P and M Jewelry.Today was the day she would rain fire, smoke, and destruction on everyone who had wronged her.She would kill many birds with one stone.“Is everything ready?” she asked her team: her guards and the newly employed tech expert, Fiona.Fiona adjusted her glasses and nodded. “Everything is ready, ma.”“Good.” Anna checked her reflection. The makeup was glamorous yet sharp, giving her the aura of a VIP stepping straight out of a magazine. Confidence radiated from her like heat.Aiden walked in wearing a tiny tuxedo that fit him perfectly. He looked like a miniature gentleman, beautiful and adorable.Anna’s heart softened. Sh

Chapter: Chapter 198: Such a stupid man Anna stood in front of her entrance doors as the convoy of black cars sped through the open gates like arrows finally reaching their target. Her heart thudded in her chest so hard she could feel the vibration in her fingertips. Cold morning air brushed against her champagne-scented skin, and she exhaled shakily as the tires screeched to a stop.The guards jumped out quickly, coordinated like shadows slipping into place. One of them opened the back door. And the moment Aiden’s little shoes touched the ground, Anna’s knees buckled from the swell of emotion rising inside her.She opened her arms wide, trembling. Tears broke loose from her eyes even before she could stop them. Hot. Fast. Blinding.Aiden blinked around with a deep frown carved into his small face, his eyes darting left and right like a frightened deer. He looked tense, confused, his breathing sharp and quick. His voice was small when he finally spoke, laced with suspicion and fear.“Why did these people kidnap me…?”But th

Chapter: Chapter 197: My son is no prisonerThe snowfall had quieted that Saturday morning, leaving the world outside looking like it was wrapped in soft cotton. Everything felt slow and sluggish in Andy Roberts’ house, as though the cold itself had seeped into the walls. Andy made breakfast for the family—toast, eggs, a bit of steak. The smell filled the dining room. Penelope sat quietly, picking at her meal, while Andy tried to shake off the heaviness in his chest. Aiden eventually shuffled downstairs, bundled in his little pajamas, rubbing sleep from his eyes. But he didn’t touch his food. Andy frowned and lowered his fork. “What’s the problem, boy?” Aiden shook his head slowly. His tiny shoulders drooped, and his sad eyes lifted to Andy’s face. “I don’t want to eat,” he murmured. “I want to go to the park.” “What?” Andy’s fork clattered against his plate. Aiden’s lips trembled, and tears welled instantly, shocking both adults. The boy looked like he was about to crumble if anyone breathed wrong. “Alright! Alright, I’l

Chapter: Chapter 196: Believe meAndy woke up with a throbbing head and a body that felt as if he had been hit by a slow-moving truck. His tongue tasted like rust and cheap alcohol. He blinked hard, forcing his vision to focus on the unfamiliar ceiling above him. The sheets around his waist were tangled, still faintly scented with perfume—sweet, sugary, nothing like Penelope’s floral fragrance.His heart lurched.He jolted upright, eyes darting around the dim room. Empty. The woman from last night was gone. No note. No trace. Not even a goodbye.“Shit,” he muttered under his breath as he checked his phone. The screen lit up—past morning.Panic clawed up his throat.He scrambled off the bed, barely giving himself time to shove on his crumpled clothes. He rushed out, crossed to the bar opposite where he’d abandoned his car, and drove home like a guilty man fleeing a crime scene.---The moment he stepped into the living room, Penelope’s voice sliced through the air.“Where are you coming from?”She sat on the sofa like

My eyes dart to him—Handsome Devil—just as he catches my stare and quickly tucks the weapon beneath his bed.“I’m sorry,” he mutters, his tone awkward, like he just spilled coffee and not revealed something dangerous.I blink, unsure how to respond. Who apologizes for being seen with a firearm?This man baffles me.A yawn escapes me, and I rub at my face. My stomach twists in protest—hunger clawing at my insides. I haven’t eaten anything since that miserable piece of toast and lemon tea in the morning. My knees tremble beneath me.“Are you planning to stand there all night?” he asks, a teasing curl lifting the corner of his lips. “Come sit.” He pats the space beside him on the bed.I shake my head immediately. “No, I’ll stay here.”His brows lift. “Why?”“Because…” My chest heaves. “Because I don’t trust a man like you.”He chuckles, low and amused, as if I just told him a secret.

Chapter: Chapter 3: Because you are beautiful Sweat forms on my forehead as I stare at the picture in my hand. Isaac rides a woman reverse cowgirl. I can’t believe it. My own Isaac? My own fiancé? Tears blind my eyes instantly. I can’t see the woman’s face; whoever took the picture focused only on Isaac. Tears threaten to spill. It’s not real. Maybe it’s just a photoshopped image, I tell myself. Whoever sent this just wants to destroy our happy relationship. Is our relationship really happy? I wonder. No, it isn’t something I can describe as happiness. But it’s normal. We’re both very busy adults. “What’s it, Cilla?” Kaila’s voice cuts through my thoughts. “What’s that?” She leans forward, stretching her neck to see. “Is it a love letter?” Her brows lift playfully. “No,” I say curtly, squeezing the picture. My eyes dart around, searching for the men in white who brought the cake to the stage. They clearly aren’t Isaac’s. Isaac wouldn’t sabotage our relationship. So who could it be? “Cilla? You don’t look right,” Ave

Really. You guys don’t have to worry.” I forced a smile, even though every muscle in my body still felt wired. “I’m safe. I’m alive.”“Thank goodness,” Patricia breathed out, finally letting go. “Your father almost had a damn heart attack last night,” she added, shooting him a look.I rolled my eyes. “Sorry about that.”“It’s alright. Go freshen up,” she said, waving me off with that dismissive little flick of her wrist. “You look like hell.”“I know,” I muttered, rolling my eyes again as I headed for the stairs.Right as my foot hit the first step, the doorbell chimed.“I got it,” Patricia called, peeling away from the kitchen

But then the crowd surged like a wave, people shoving and screaming.Gunshots. Sharp, unmistakable cracks cutting through the packed dance floor.“Run!” Kaila yelled, yanking at my hand. But I couldn’t budge. My feet rooted to the sticky floor, shock locking me in place like cement.Two minutes earlier, Kaila, Avery, and I had been lost in the hip-hop beats, grinding and laughing our asses off for my bachelorette party. Bottles popping, confetti in the air, the whole nine yards.Now? Chaos. Pure, heart-pounding panic.I spun around, eyes darting through the strobe lights. Kaila and Avery were gone, swallowed by the stampede toward the exits. Everyone bolted helter-skelter, but there I stood, smack in the middl

Chapter: Chapter 72: Please stay.“What did you just call me?”Seraphina’s jaw dropped.For a heartbeat, she thought she had misheard him. Thought the word had slipped from his mouth by accident, like a blade drawn too quickly from its sheath."Seraphina."The sound of it rang in her ears, loud and merciless.He turned his head slightly, as if studying her reaction, then reached for her hands. His touch was careful. Soft. Almost reverent. The same hands that had once banished her now trembled faintly against her skin.“I have always known you are Seraphina,” he said, smiling slowly. “You did well to conceal your identity, Princess.”Her lashes fluttered.Once.Twice.Her heart slammed so hard against her ribs it felt like it might shatter them.Not in a thousand years had she expected this. Her disguise had been layered with ancient magic. Her scent had been suppressed. Her eye color altered. Her aura dampened until even the most sensitive wolves could not sense her.Yet here he stood.Looking at her like he had alway

Chapter: Chapter 71: I did not mean to frighten youAlpha Kenzo walked into the great hall wearing a smile.It was the smile of a man who believed the world had finally bent to his will. The smile of victory already tasted on his tongue.Then he saw her.The smile froze.Cracked.Died.Mira’s body lay sprawled across the cold stone floor, limbs stiff, skin drained of life, black hair spread like spilled ink beneath her head.Time stopped.“Oh… behold her alliance,” Seraphina clapped slowly, the sound sharp and cruel in the heavy silence. A frown creased her brow, not of surprise, but of disgust.Alpha Kenzo staggered forward as if struck blind. His knees hit the floor with a dull thud.“What happened to her?” His voice broke as he gathered Mira into his arms, shaking hands cradling her face. “Mira… Mira…”No one answered.No one moved.They only watched him.King Nicolas rose from his knees, his gaze fixed, unreadable, sharp as a drawn blade.Kenzo had entered the hall expecting celebration. Blood. Triumph.He had expected King Nicolas

It’s very possible,” Seraphina said coolly. “Sweet Indra here, overheard you instructing a maid to put in a powder in my tea.”She paused.The silence stretched, heavy and deliberate, pressing down on everyone present.“The powder you went to get from your dark witch, Barbara,” Seraphina continued. “The dragon powder.”“What?”The word tore out of Mira’s throat.The room shifted.The air itself seemed to tremble.Voices rang in anger and surprise, overlapping, colliding.“Goodness.” “She is so evil.”“You drank from that cup,” Mira stated suddenly, her voice tight.

Chapter: Chapter 69: I don't care“Barbara…”The name tore itself from Mira’s throat the instant Alexander dragged the dark witch into the royal dining hall.Her breath hitched sharply. Her fingers curled into the fabric of her gown as if gripping it could anchor her to the ground.For a heartbeat, her mind went blank. Then panic rushed in, wild and uncontrollable.No. No, no, no.She had not expected this. Not today. Not here. Not in front of the entire court.How?How did they find her?How did this spiral out of her control so quickly?Barbara looked nothing like the woman Mira had always known. Gone was the sharp chin held high with pride, gone the mocking glint in her eyes. Her wrists were bound with enchanted iron chains that pulsed faintly, suppressing her magic. Her dress was torn, stained with dirt and dried blood. She looked smaller somehow. Broken.“Behold my evidence, Mira.”Seraphina’s voice rang through the hall, cold and steady. It yanked Mira out of her racing thoughts.King Nicolas’s frown deepened

Chapter: Chapter 68: I have evidenceDawn crept in faster than Seraphina expected, pale light spilling through towering stained-glass windows and bleeding into the royal dining hall. The long oak table was already filled. Kings, queens, generals, and emissaries from allied realms sat in rigid silence, their presence heavy with anticipation. Today was not a day for pleasantries. Today, they would finalize the counterattack against the vampire clan.Steel goblets clinked softly. Silk robes whispered as bodies shifted. The air smelled of polished wood, burning incense, and restrained hostility.Then Seraphina walked in.Every head turned.She wore sapphire blue, her favorite color. The gown hugged her frame like it had been woven for her alone, shimmering softly beneath the morning light. The color made her pale skin glow and set her silver hair aflame like moonlight poured into silk. She walked with measured steps, her chin lifted, her expression calm but her pulse pounding hard against her ribs.Two seats were empty.On

Chapter: Chapter 67: You are coming with meSleep would not come.It clung just out of reach, teasing Seraphina as she turned from one side of the bed to the other. The sheets were tangled around her legs, damp with the restless heat of a body that had known too much tonight. For three long hours, she lay awake, staring into the dark, her thoughts gnawing at her like rats in the walls.She had bathed. Warm water. Lavender oil. Silence.She had done everything right.Still, her mind refused to rest.King Nicolas’s question rose again, sharp and relentless, echoing in her skull.Who are you?His eyes had pinned her in place when he asked it. Not with anger. Not with suspicion alone. But with something far more dangerous. Knowing. The kind that peeled back skin and lies and saw what lived beneath.He had pinned her tight to that tree, unraveling her slowly, like a predator testing unfamiliar prey. Sniffing her. Studying her. As if his body recognized a truth his mind had not yet named.She had felt it then. The shift.Her face mi
