Venessa stood in front of her mirror, turning side to side as she admired her reflection. The dress clung to her curves perfectly, shimmering under the lights. It was the exact same design Delilah had ordered.

“Tonight,” she whispered to her reflection, brushing a hand down the fabric, “I’ll take back what’s mine.” What used to be hers before Delilah though she could steal her place.

She had waited three long years for this moment, three years of watching and hoping. Now he was back…richer, more powerful, and more desired than ever. And tonight, the world would see them together.

It wasn’t like Chase had a choice. They were business partners, and since he had no partner. He had no choice, and he also wouldn't be able to reject her publicly. She was going to make sure everyone knew they were more than that.

Venessa reached for her phone to check the time, irritation flaring. What’s taking the chauffeur so long? His first assignment, and he was already late.

She clicked her tongue. “U

    Many years had passed, and Ava had lived happily with Aaron. Life was not perfect there were ups and downs, but they fought through everything side by side. The thought of her little girl was enough to brighten the darkest of days.It had been three years since Delilah’s death was announced. Ava had cried until her body was weak, but tears could never bring the dead back. Life, cruel as it was, simply moved on.Now she stood by the roadside, waiting to pick up her daughter from kindergarten. A smile tugged at her lips as she remembered Aaron’s teasing words before she left the house. Even after all the years together, his mischief still made her blush like a young girl in love.“Mama!” Mirabelle’s sweet voice rang out from across the road. She was waving excitedly, her little face glowing with joy. Ava’s heart swelled, and her smile widened as she lifted her hand to wave back.She gestured for Mirabelle to stay put, mouthing that she would cross over to get her. The little girl nodde

    As they walked down the red carpet, Chase kept his expression unreadable, though inside his thoughts churned. If Delilah thought he hadn’t noticed, she was wrong. From the moment she appeared, something felt off. The scene, the way she moved, even her scent, it wasn’t Venessa’s.He had felt it before too, at the airport. That familiar pull he couldn’t shake. And now, walking beside him, he knew with certainty….the woman at his arm was no Venessa. But he wouldn’t let himself believe it fully until he saw her face with his own eyes.Once they entered the grand hall, Delilah couldn’t hide her awe. The place was magnificent….far more than she had imagined. Glittering chandeliers hung above, walls draped in gold and silk, and the room glowed with wealth and power.But unlike before, Delilah wasn’t worried about her condition. Thanks to Ymir’s careful preparations, she had already been injected, freeing her from the threat of her epilepsy for tonight. She could move as freely as she wanted

    As they got into the car, Delilah leaned over and pressed a hard kiss to Riley’s forehead. Her voice soft as she whispered, “Don’t ever scare me like that again, okay?”Of course, the little girl didn’t fully understand. She only smiled up at her mother, wide-eyed and innocent, as if the world was nothing but light.From the driver’s seat, Death watched them through the rearview mirror. His lips curved into a smile, but it didn’t reach his eyes. Beneath it, worry ate at him. Sooner or later, Delilah would regain her memories. And when she did… she would learn the truth about her parents’ death. His truth. The truth that he, the man who she had trusted was the one who had spilled their blood. He had already accepted his fate, when the memories came back, his life would end by her hand.Three years he had trained her in martial arts, turning her into someone who could defend herself, someone who could hunt for vengeance. He had armed her against the two people she believed ruined her

    [Years Later]After Delilah’s death was confirmed three years ago, the world had moved on. Her name was barely remembered except by a few Ava, Adrian, and Chase. To everyone else, she was a story long forgotten.But Delilah hadn’t stayed dead.She returned under a new identity, carrying with her the only treasure she had left…Riley. Her little girl was now old enough to walk, talk, and light up every room with her charm. Riley had inherited almost everything from Delilah, her warmth, her smile, her spirit. But her eyes… those were not Delilah’s.They were Chase Monroe’s. On the very day Delilah landed back in the country with Riley, she was waiting outside the airport for Death, the only man she trusted to keep them safe.Deli shifted uncomfortably, her heels biting into her skin as she stood waiting. Riley clung tightly to her leg, her small hands gripping as though she would never let go. Ever since they stepped off the plane, the little girl had been unusually quiet, her pout pres

    [Penthouse]“Sir, I'm afraid you have to leave as soon as possible, or everything you’ve fought for will be taken over.” Lewis said with a hint of concern in his voice. Chase’s hand dragged through his hair in frustration, his jaw tightening hard. How was he supposed to just move on from Delilah? To walk away and leave everything behind like she had never existed? She was still missing, and every day his men kept searching with no trace of her. Not a single lead. Yet, deep down, he refused to believe she was gone. She had to be alive.But now, he had to leave. Go back abroad and pretend as if none of this ever happened. That was impossible. He had promised himself he would punish her for what she did to him…but not like this. Not losing both her parents in one day. Not suffering something so cruel. The thought of someone making her watch them die, stripping away her only family, twisted like a knife in his chest. Whoever planned this wasn’t just smart…they were merciless. Every tra
