"Mrs. Blackwood, everything has been arranged for the identity-erasure operation you commissioned. This is the final agreement. Please sign here."

Death confirmed through DNA identification. Execution Date: One week from today. One week later would be the fifth anniversary of my marriage to Damian Blackwood.

This author reallys knows how to quickly hook you in & the writing seems to be human-written without any (obvious) AI. Whilst tropes & plot are genre-standard fare, both are utilised well, & the few consistency errors are so minor most won't notice. If you like this genre it's a good oneshot read ...

Chapter 1
Elena's POVWhen I returned to Blackwood Manor, the entire estate was already busy preparing for our fifth anniversary celebration.Fresh flowers were being delivered one truck after another. Workers hurried across the courtyard, hanging lights and arranging decorations.One of the housekeepers noticed me and beamed."Mrs. Blackwood, Mr. Blackwood has personally approved every detail. He said nothing less than perfect was worthy of his Donna."Another maid couldn't help chiming in."I've worked for the Blackwoods for fifteen years. I've never seen a Don love his wife the way Mr. Blackwood loves you.""They say the anniversary celebration is going to be the biggest gathering the family has ever hosted. He's inviting everyone just so the whole city knows you're the only Donna he'll ever recognize."I kept walking without saying a word.Everyone said I must have saved the world in a previous life to marry a man like Damian Blackwood. A week ago, I would have believed every word.Then I di

Elena's POVI quietly slipped my hand out of his. "I must've lost it."Damian reached for his phone almost immediately. "I'll have everyone in the family look for it. I want it found."I shook my head."No. Let it go."His expression changed instantly. A faint crease appeared between his brows."Let it go?" His voice lowered, almost as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing."Elena, do you know what that ring means? It isn't just a piece of jewelry. That ring represents the day I stood in front of the entire Blackwood family and claimed you as the one and only Donna."The one and only?I almost laughed.If a man could call me his only one while climbing into another woman's bed, that kind of only wasn't worth much at all."It's just a ring," I said quietly. "It doesn't prove anything.""Don't say that." His voice was low, almost serious. Damian's expression changed. He gently took my hand, his thumb brushing over the empty space where the ring had been."That ring was never just a

Elena's POVDamian thought for a moment, then nodded good-naturedly."Alright. When the day comes, we'll open each other's surprises together. That will make it more meaningful."I suddenly wanted to see the look on Damian's face.The moment he learned of my death, and saw the Declaration of Renunciation of Donna Status. Would he be shocked? Stunned? Or would he regret it?When we returned to Blackwood Manor, Damian walked me back to the bedroom.I asked him, "Are you still going to handle family matters tonight?"Damian hummed softly. "There are still some things I didn't finish yesterday. I need to work late tonight.""Then go." I turned my back to him and lay down, clearly dismissing him.Damian stood there. He didn't leave. He seemed to have noticed something was wrong. But he couldn't figure out what it was.Suddenly, I wanted to tease him one last time. So I turned around and looked at him."Can you not leave tonight?" Damian visibly relaxed.I still depended on him. I still want

Elena's POVOver the next few days, messages from Damian and Isabella continued to arrive.Three days before our fifth anniversary. Isabella: The ocean breeze in Hawaii feels amazing. The seafood here is incredible too, but he said I shouldn't eat seafood while I'm pregnant, so he went all the way across town just to get me some food I'm used to.Attached was a photo of the Hawaiian beach, the sand, the palm trees, and Damian in the distance, opening a takeout box.Damian: The food here isn't really like what we have back home. Damian: Baby, what did you eat today?That day, I met up with a few of my closest friends at an Italian restaurant.We ordered pizza, pasta, and tiramisu. We talked about everything we had been through over the years.No one knew that it was the last time I would ever meet them as Elena.We laughed. We talked about old memories. We were happy.Because after today, I would leave this world behind under a new identity.Seeing them again in the future would proba

In the meantime, at the other end of the airport.A black armored SUV sat quietly outside the private terminal.The windows were tinted so dark that no one outside could see what was happening inside.But within the car, the air still carried the lingering heat of what had just happened.Damian's POVIsabella leaned against my chest, one hand resting lightly over her stomach."Are you really going back tomorrow to celebrate your fifth anniversary with her?"She bit her lip, her voice soft and coaxing."Even the baby and I don't want you to leave. Can't you stay with us for just one more day?"I lowered his eyes to her, only smiled faintly and ran my fingers through her hair."Weren't you looking at that beachfront villa the other day? I'll have my lawyer take care of it tomorrow."Isabella's eyes immediately lit up. "Really?"I gave a careless smile. "When have I ever lied to you?"Isabella instantly wrapped her arms around me and kissed my cheek. "I knew it. You're the best, Daddy."I

Chapter 6
Damian's POVI drove all the way back to Blackwood Manor. This was the home we had shared for five years.Elena was the one who had turned this place into a home. She had personally chosen every piece of furniture, selected every member of the staff, and decided where every bouquet of flowers should be placed, especially over the past few days.The entire manor had been preparing for our fifth anniversary ceremony.Black tuxedos. Crystal chandeliers. Endless arrangements of white roses.Everyone was waiting for tomorrow.Waiting for me to once again announce my Donna to the entire New York underworld. I stepped into the grand foyer quietly, hoping to surprise Elena.But every room was empty. My brows slowly furrowed as I looked toward the servants working nearby. "Where is Elena?" Everyone stopped what they were doing at once. They exchanged uncertain glances. But no one answered.My voice turned colder. "I asked you a question. Where is Mrs. Blackwood?"The butler hesitated before a

Damian's POV"No, that's impossible."I gripped the phone tightly, my voice already trembling."Elena can't be dead. She was just talking to me. She said she was only going to the harbor to look at the sea. She's fine. She has to be."I kept shaking my head, as if I was trying to convince the officer on the other end.Or maybe trying to convince myself."You made a mistake. She's just angry with me. She's hiding somewhere. She wants me to find her. She's waiting for me. I know she is. Elena, I'm coming."I had no idea when the call ended.I only knew that, suddenly, the entire world went silent.The next second, I rushed out of the bedroom like a man losing his mind.The study. The greenhouse. The terrace. The home theater. The wine cellar. I threw open every door in the manor."Elena!""Elena!"No answer.The entire Blackwood Manor was terrifyingly quiet. Finally, I ran back to our bedroom.And only then did I notice that half of the walk-in closet was empty.Her clothes. Her shoes. H

Chapter 8
Damian's POVI looked like someone had taken my soul away.I sat alone in the garden behind the manor until darkness completely swallowed the sky.There was a swing there. Elena's favorite swing.Every evening, she used to sit there and wait for me to come home.But tonight, the swing was still there.The person waiting for me was gone.Only after night had fully fallen did I finally return to the bedroom.I didn't turn on the lights. I simply walked to the bed and lay down on the side where she used to sleep.I closed my eyes, trying to find even the last trace of her warmth.But all I felt was cold sheets, an empty room and a silence so heavy it was suffocating.Then, suddenly, I remembered the black gift box.Elena had told me there was a surprise waiting inside.Maybe she was still waiting for me, maybe opening it would lead me back to her.I suddenly sat up. The antique clock on the wall had just passed midnight.Today was our fifth wedding anniversary. I practically lunged for t

Damian's POVI stood there. Scrolling through the messages on the phone one by one.So this was the truth.For the past six months, Isabella had been sending messages to her.Almost every day without stopping.The last one was from yesterday morning.My grip tightened little by little. Every word on the screen burned itself into my eyes.Isabella: You must have noticed by now, Donna.Isabella: Damian is only staying by your side because he feels responsible for you.Isabella: The person who truly makes him happy, the person he can actually relax with is me.Isabella: How pathetic.Isabella: You may have the title of Mrs. Blackwood, but you couldn't keep his heart.The next message contained a photo.A diamond necklace.Isabella: Damian designed this for me himself.Isabella: Isn't it more beautiful than your wedding ring?I kept scrolling.More messages.More photos.More cruelty.Isabella: It's my birthday today.Isabella: Did he tell you he had family business to handle?Isabella: Th

Chapter 10
Damian's POVBy the time the investigator brought me to the apartment building, the entire place had already fallen silent.No Elena. No belongings. No trace that she had ever lived there.I stood outside the empty apartment, my voice low and almost emotionless."Where is she?"The investigator looked through the documents in his hand. "Don, our investigation confirms that someone did live here. The woman captured on the surveillance footage also bears a strong resemblance to the photos you provided.""But," I paused. "She isn't Mrs. Blackwood."My head snapped up. "What?""She isn't Elena." The investigator shook his head. "She's just an ordinary international student. Her identity, immigration records, school history, and personal records over the past few years all check out. We've confirmed that she has no connection to the Blackwood family."I stood there in silence.For a long time. I thought I had finally found her.I thought fate had given me one last chance.But in the end, it
