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: PROLOGUE A 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 at his hands

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

The Wolfless Luna
Seraphina Wilson was born to be a Luna, but fate had other plans. Marked as wolfless, she was betrayed by the two people she trusted most—her younger sister, Zara, and her fiance, Ethan. Their affair had been a secret for years, and when the truth came to light, Seraphina lost everything. Her family turned on her, stripping her of dignity and forcing her into servitude while Ethan proudly took Zara as his bride.
But destiny wasn’t done with Seraphina.

Her fate is no longer in their hands. It never was.

Chapter: Chapter 62: I will protect you“H… how do you mean, Your Majesty?” Seraphina’s voice came out small, almost swallowed by the cold night air. Her palms were damp, slick despite the chill that bit through her sleeves. She folded her fingers together as if that might still the strange flutter crawling under her skin.“There is something,” King Nicolas said slowly, as though choosing each word with care, “something about the two women I have ever loved, even though neither of them became queen. Zaya… and Seraphina.”He stopped walking. The garden lantern nearby flickered, throwing soft gold across his face as he reached for a bloom heavy with frost-kissed petals. He tugged one loose between his fingers, thoughtful, almost absent-minded.“They both looked soft,” he went on, eyes on the flower, voice low. “Like feathers that would scatter at the slightest wind. Yet they were anything but.” He crushed the petal gently between his thumb and forefinger. “Tough. Determined. Made of something far stronger than they let the wo

Then strong hands caught her by the waist, firm and steady, pulling her back from the brink.King Nicolas.He held her without hesitation, his grip sure, anchoring her as though the ground itself had reached up through him. Snowflakes drifted lazily around them, settling in her hair, melting against his cloak.Their eyes met.Her heart stuttered, then raced. His did the same, a treacherous leap he had not felt in years.Something ancient stirred in him. A sharp, unsettling sense of recognition. Her body fit too easily against his, her warmth too familiar. The softness beneath his palms awakened a memory he could not place, yet could not deny. A softness he had never felt in any other woman.Images invaded his mind without permission. Her without the layers of silk and fur. Her bare skin under moonlight. The thought lodged itself like a poisoned thorn, ref

Chapter: Chapter 60: I will crush youAlexander did not look back.The moment the whip cracked again, tearing through cold air and flesh, he ran.His boots crushed frozen grass as his body shifted halfway, bones stretching beneath skin, muscles thickening, his wolf snarling just beneath the surface. The guards shouted behind him, startled, confused, but too slow. By the time they understood what was happening, Alexander was already there.He threw himself over Indra.The whip came down hard.It landed on his back with a wet, brutal sound.Indra screamed.Blood bloomed instantly, dark and vivid against his skin, the lash carving him open like meat on a butcher’s table. The guards froze, stunned. No one had ever done this. No one had ever dared.Seraphina stepped outside at that moment.She leaned her back against a stone pillar, arms crossing slowly over her chest as she watched.Alexander did not cry out. He took the second lash. Then the third.Each strike tore deeper.Her eyes narrowed.She had never seen Alexander sac

Chapter: Chapter 59: Bond over duty“Alexander… How dare you?” Seraphina’s voice cracked like wildfire, each word laced with anger and disbelief. Her hands trembled—not with fear, but with the raw intensity of her fury.Alexander’s gaze dropped instantly, yet he did not release her hand. His grip was firm but careful, as though letting go could undo something unspoken between them. The tension in the room was palpable, thick enough to taste.Indra’s eyes widened, her breath catching in her throat. She had no idea why the princess’s bodyguard was defending her. Every instinct screamed confusion, yet something in Alexander’s stance told her he would not yield—not to the princess, not to anyone.This was the second time she had seen him, and the second time his gaze had pierced through her like a knife wrapped in silk—intense, unwavering, stirring something in her that no man had ever managed before.“Let go of my hand, now!” Seraphina’s command sliced through the air. Her alpha authority rolled over the room like a storm

Chapter: Chapter 58: Do not hit herMira slid into the empty seat beside Nicolas as though it had been saved for her all along.Her movement was smooth, deliberate. A woman claiming territory.A wide smile settled on her lips, practiced and confident, the kind that dared anyone to question her presence. She did not care that Nicolas turned to her with murder in his eyes. She did not care that his jaw tightened, that his shoulders stiffened.She had heard about the dinner earlier that evening, while passing through the servants’ corridor. The maids had been whispering as they chopped herbs and stirred pots, their voices hushed but excited. A private dinner. Prepared personally. For a princess.The words had slid into Mira’s ears and turned her blood to ice.Nicolas had not told her.He had planned to dine alone with a princess without her knowledge, without her presence, without her consent. Anger and jealousy surged inside her like a rising tide, hot and relentless, threatening to drown her reason.She had not confronte

Chapter: Chapter 57:He takes care of meSeraphina tossed the last dress onto the heaving pile on her bed. Her room looked like a battlefield of fabric—velvets, silks, and satins strewn across the floor in wild disarray. She sank onto the mattress with a heavy sigh, staring at the ceiling as though it might give her an answer.Why am I even worrying about this? she asked herself silently. Why am I trying so hard, when nothing will ever feel… right?A knock at the door snapped her from her thoughts. Her body stiffened.Dragging herself upright, she shuffled toward the door, each step reluctant, weighed down by exhaustion and indecision.Alexander’s face came into view the moment she opened it.“Can I come in?” His voice was calm, measured, but there was an edge she recognized—quiet authority, the kind that brooked no refusal.She hesitated. He was probably here to stop her from attending the dinner.“If this is about the dinner…” she started, crossing her arms.“It’s not,” he lied smoothly. He had come to dissuade her, yet d
