Sinopsis

Vampire

Winning Back the Wife

Cheating

Fake Death

Scumbag

Girl Power

I was a human bride chosen by the Elder Council. Because my bloodline could give the vampires powerful half-blood heirs, I was married to Cassian Blackwood, heir to the vampire throne. Throughout our five-year marriage, Cassian was gentle and attentive, no matter how demanding his duties became. Even after my repeated miscarriages, his tenderness never wavered. He told me I was his wife, and no matter what happened, he would always love me. Then, just before our anniversary, I stumbled onto the truth. When I went to the boutique to pick up his gift, the clerk recognized the ring on my finger at once. "Ma'am, you're so lucky. We made only two rings in this design, and your husband bought both of them." The clerk didn't notice my hands shaking. At my request, she showed me the order. My husband had given the other ring to a woman named Seraphina Vale. Worse, the inside of the ring he gave the other woman read, "Love you forever." Mine was blank. I quietly followed the address on the order, and there was Cassian. He had his arm around another female vampire, his expression full of the tenderness I knew so well. Beside them stood a child of about four. The boy looked up with a smile and called my husband Daddy.

Chapter 1
Eleanor's POVOn the way here, I'd still been clinging to hope.Cassian had been so good to me. In five years, I had never once doubted his sincerity.I couldn't imagine him deceiving me. I was still making excuses for him in my head.Maybe I had it wrong. Maybe the clerk had made a mistake.But now, everything seemed like a cruel joke.The basic potion I'd bought on the black market could only mask a human's scent for a short time.More powerful elixirs could even conceal a vampire's bloodline, but using one for too long could make it turn on the user.The dealer had warned me repeatedly not to get too close to a high-ranking vampire.So at that moment, all I could do was hide in the trees, watching them from a distance across the carefully decorated courtyard.The living room's floor-to-ceiling windows had their curtains drawn back.Cassian casually scooped up the boy, who looked about four.The child had one arm around his neck, the other holding up a toy airplane, chattering nonsto

Eleanor's POVI sat at the dining table, staring at the matching necklace set, until the sky outside went completely dark.It was the anniversary gift I had chosen for Cassian.I had ordered it a month in advance.Because Cassian once told me he liked us having matching things.He said married couples should have something that marked them as belonging to each other.So for five years, on every important occasion, I prepared gifts with great care.I used to believe these little traditions represented our unwavering devotion to each other.It wasn't until yesterday that I learned he had given an identical ring to another woman.I looked down at my hand.I had worn that ring for five years.I never felt it was missing anything.Because I had always believed that the moment Cassian slid it onto my finger was proof enough of his love.But now, I suddenly didn't know how much of what I had believed was ever real.My marriage to Cassian was never about love from the start.At least, not at f

Eleanor's POVThe next morning, Cassian left the house just like he had countless times before.He stood in the entryway adjusting his cuffs, then leaned down to fix a strand of my sleep-mussed hair."There's an Elder Council meeting today. I might be a little late getting home."His voice was as gentle as ever.If this had been before, I would have reminded him not to push himself too hard.I would have overseen dinner preparations myself, then sat in the living room that evening and waited for him to come home.Because for the past five years, that was what I always did.When Cassian was busy, I waited.When Cassian was tired, I was there for him.I always believed that being his wife meant understanding his responsibilities and accepting how busy he was.But today, I just stood there, watching his silhouette disappear.I didn't ask when he would be back.I didn't remind him to be careful on the road.I didn't even hug him before he left, the way I always used to.The moment the door

Eleanor's POVSeraphina looked at me."He is good to you, I'll give him that.""He takes care of you, protects you, gives you everything you want.""Because you're his wife in name.""But Eleanor, do you really think that's love?"I didn't answer.Because I didn't know.Cassian's kindness toward me was real.The happiness I once felt was real.But now I realized that too much of what I had accepted as truth was only a false picture I had wanted to believe.She said that every anniversary, she would ask Cassian to stay, and he had never once refused.I could barely hear what she was saying anymore. All I knew was that I had come here to force myself to face reality, to kill whatever hope was left in my heart.But my heart already ached too much to beat.Footsteps sounded on the stairs.The boy walked down.He saw me and stopped in his tracks.Seraphina went over and picked him up."Eric, don't be scared. She wouldn't dare touch you."Eric nestled against her and asked in a small voice,

Eleanor's POVAfter coming back from his other home, I didn't bring up Seraphina to Cassian again.Everything stayed peaceful and happy on the surface, the same as always.Cassian was still as gentle as he had been for the past five years.He ate breakfast with me every day.He reminded the servants to look after me.When he came home at night, he would hold me just like before and ask how my day had been.But only I knew that everything had changed beyond repair.During those three days, I secretly contacted my father, Edmund Valerie.When the call connected, I didn't speak right away.I sat in my room, staring out at the perpetually overcast sky of vampire territory.Five years ago, I had sat in this same spot.Back then, I had just married Cassian.Everything here was foreign to me.I was afraid I wouldn't be a good enough wife.Afraid every vampire noble would think a human with nothing but a rare bloodline wasn't worthy of the heir to the throne.But Cassian took my hand and told

Eleanor's POVBefore dinner, we sat in the garden.Soft lamplight fell across his profile.The scene overlapped with so many moments from the past.I had once wished so desperately for time to stop while we sat together like this. But now, all I wanted was to get away from here and never come back.I looked at Cassian.I let myself ask one last question."Cassian."He turned to me, his eyes full of tenderness so convincing it could fool anyone."What is it?""After five years of marriage, have you ever regretted being with me?"He looked surprised for a moment.Then smiled softly.He leaned down and kissed my forehead."Of course not."I gently pushed him away, my expression calm. "If you have, you can tell me. I don't want to hold you back, and I don't want to settle."But he didn't hesitate for even a second. The same perfunctory smile touched his lips again."Eleanor, how could I possibly regret it?""You're my wife.""I have never regretted choosing you."I looked into his eyes, a

Cassian's POVBy the time I raced back to the estate, the fire had already consumed nearly half of it.The distant glow lit up the entire night sky.I stood there, staring at the familiar estate, and for a moment felt nothing at all.I only thought it was an inconvenience.The estate would need to be rebuilt.The Elder Council would have to send someone to investigate the cause of the fire.The servants stood at the entrance, trembling as they greeted me, their faces full of fear.I scanned the crowd but didn't see Eleanor.In fact, the phone call alerting me to the fire hadn't come from her.I frowned.She was probably just hurt.Or the guards had already gotten her out.I didn't consider any other possibility.Because in my mind, Eleanor was simply always there.For the past five years, she waited for me to come home every day. If nothing was going on at Seraphina's, I would stay and be with her.She would wait for me with that happy look on her face. She always did."Your Highness."

Cassian's POVFifteen days after Eleanor's disappearance, I went to Seraphina's.I didn't tell her I was coming.Even as I left, I wasn't sure why I was going.I just felt like I needed to see her.For years, I had told myself that the woman I loved was Seraphina.My marriage to Eleanor was nothing more than an arrangement imposed by the Elder Council.She was the ideal candidate to marry the heir to the throne.She possessed the bloodline the Elder Council required.She was obedient, sensible, and never truly challenged my decisions.I had been telling myself this all along.So now that Eleanor was gone, I should return to my real life.I should go find the woman I truly loved.I should prove that the only reason I couldn't adjust to Eleanor's absence was five years of habit.But when I stood at the gate of Seraphina's estate, I paused.In the past, coming here had never made me feel this way.This used to be the most familiar place in my world.I had talked about the future with Sera

Eleanor's POVThree months after leaving vampire territory, I rested peacefully in the sunlight for the first time.The curtains were open.Sunlight streamed through the glass onto my face.The warmth felt almost foreign.I opened my eyes and stared at the bright sky outside for a long, disoriented moment.In five years, I had nearly forgotten what sunlight felt like.The vampire realm was forever cold and dark.The sky was perpetually hidden behind heavy clouds.No lamp in that estate could ever replace the real sun.To stay by Cassian's side, I had forced myself to adapt to everything about that place.I learned to accept the endless nights.I learned to be a poised, elegant wife worthy of standing beside him.Back then, it never occurred to me that one day, simply standing in the sun would make me happy.I looked down at my hand.On my ring finger, a faint tan line remained where the ring used to be.But now, nothing proved I had ever belonged to him.Three months ago, I was the wif

Cassian's POVAfter leaving Seraphina's, I sat alone in my study, staring at the investigation report on the desk.I had read every word on it many times over.But no matter how many times I looked, the result didn't change.Something was definitely wrong with Eric Vale's bloodline.I had always believed he was my son.I believed he had inherited my power.I believed he was the unbreakable bond between Seraphina and me.So when that unfamiliar feeling surfaced, my first instinct was to doubt myself.I even hoped that everything that had happened recently had simply thrown off my judgment.But now, all the evidence was laid out before me.I had ordered a full reinvestigation of every record created since Eric's birth.Bloodline tests.Medical files.The doctor who had conducted the tests.Every detail was reexamined.And that was when I found the problem with the family doctor.His account held a deposit from an untraceable source.The deposit had been made shortly after Eric's birth.T
