Her words slid under my skin like poison. And I sat there, silent, every vein in my body screaming with one truth:

I had destroyed the woman I loved, and I was chained to the monster’s daughter.

I turned slowly, every muscle in my body coiled tight, fury burning just beneath my skin.

“Don’t confuse my silence with submission, Natasha.”

Her painted lips curved into that smug little smirk she wore like a crown. She tilted her head, eyes glinting with mockery.

“Oh, sweetheart. I don’t care what you call it. Silence, surrender, rage, it makes no difference. You belong to me now. Whether you spit fire or kiss the chains, it won’t change a thing.”

I forced a bitter laugh, sharp enough to cut.

“I will never belong to you,” I snapped, voice flat as steel. “This… what you’ve done… it’s nothing but a prison. And someday, Natasha, I’ll tear this cage apart piece by piece. I’ll burn it down while you watch.”

Her laugh floated through the air—light, cruel, as if she was amused by a child’s tantrum

    My fists clenched until my knuckles popped. “Cut the performance. Why am I here? If you think I’m going to grovel at your feet, you’ve got the wrong man.” He smirked knowingly, like he’d been waiting for that exact line. “I don’t need your knees on the floor, Phillip. I need your ears open. You’ve spilled blood—you’re past the point of return. You’ve carved yourself enemies who would peel the skin from your bones without hesitation. And that list? Includes me.” A chill ran through me, though I masked it with a flat stare. “So what do you want?” He stood, his silhouette framed by a towering window. Outside, the estate stretched endlessly, manicured and perfect—a kingdom, and he the king surveying it. “What I want,” he said, voice carrying like a verdict, “is to offer you the truth. A chance at survival. Maybe even victory. No more lies. No more cheap tricks. Just power—real power. The price?” I swallowed, though my throat was dry. “And what’s that?” His eyes glinted. “Loyalty.”

    – Phillip “Ah, Mr. Phillip,” he drawled, his tone carrying that smug, silk-slick edge I despised. “I honestly didn’t think you’d show up. Judging from the way you practically trembled the first time we crossed paths, I assumed fear would keep you away.” I scoffed, heat already rising in my chest. “Trembled? Don’t flatter yourself. You stormed into my house uninvited, remember? I wasn’t terrified, I was blindsided.” The lie tasted bitter even as it left my tongue. Terrified wasn’t the word, but unsettled? Yeah. This man had a presence that felt like a loaded gun aimed right at your skull. My gaze swept the room as if searching for a way to breathe. His mansion was an exhibition of arrogance—high ceilings dripping with crystal chandeliers, the faint musk of old wood polish mixing with the sharp tang of whiskey. Every corner screamed of wealth and menace, like the walls themselves could whisper secrets too heavy for the air. The only reason I’d stepped foot into this viper’s den wa

    But I wasn’t finished. Not by a long shot. I finally understood why Phillip had been so restless, why he couldn’t stop obsessing over her. And I’d laughed, told him she wasn’t that smart, that she’d never manage to beat us. Well. She did. She ripped my life apart without breaking a sweat. But what cut deepest wasn’t her victory. It was the possibility that she wasn’t just pretending. What if she really wanted him? What if she actually loved Sebastian? What if all of this wasn’t just a power play, but her heart? That thought burned more than anything. Because I could take her success, her glory, her empire. But her having the one man I’ve ever loved? No. That was unforgivable. I didn’t care if Sebastian never looked at me the same way. I’d make him. I always got what I wanted. Always. This wasn’t just a rivalry anymore. It was war. And I hadn’t even realized I’d already been losing. Olivia—sweet, soft, spineless Olivia—had been playing the long game. And she played it lik

    Kaylee She’d been playing us this entire time. The realization still felt like a slap across my face. Oh my God. No ,scratch that. Oh my fucking God. I couldn’t believe it. It had been days since I pieced it together since I learned the truth about who the “masked model” really was. And yet, my mind still refused to process it. It was too insane. Too impossible. Too Olivia. The same Olivia I had written off. The same Olivia I had stomped over like dirt beneath my heels. All this time, while we thought we were the ones moving the chess pieces, she was sitting across the board, smirking, knowing damn well we were already checkmated. When I ranted about tearing down the masked model, when I tried everything in my power to destroy her brand, her fame, her very existence—no wonder I couldn’t win. It was her. Olivia. The one person I never saw coming. The one person I had underestimated. And she had cost me everything. My career. My name. My crown. But why? Why would she do

    SebastianI watched her drag the pen across the papers, her hand trembling, her face carved from ice. With every stroke, it felt like she was carving straight into my chest, bleeding me out in silence. I had once promised myself—sworn—that I’d never be the cause of her pain. And now? I was standing there, letting her sign away our marriage inside a sterile, whitewashed hospital room.The moment the pen left the page, I wanted to rip it from her hand, burn the papers, and swear it was all a nightmare. Instead, I picked them up like a coward and walked out without a word. Every step down that corridor was another fracture in my ribs, another nail hammered into my heart.I asked the nurse. I shouldn’t have, but I did. She looked at me with pity in her eyes, those sharp, soft eyes nurses use when they’re about to cut you open without anesthesia. And she told me.Olivia lost the baby.Our baby.And it was my goddamn fault.I should have gone back into that room, fallen to my knees, clung t
