Gas hissed through the vents.

Caelan pulled me beneath the surveillance console while Helena covered her mouth with her sleeve. The emergency lights flashed red, turning the sealed room into a pulsing cage.

“Ventilation override,” Caelan ordered.

Helena entered the security code.

ACCESS DENIED.

Crowne had taken control of the estate.

The hidden speaker carried Halden’s final command.

“Kill Caelan. Make her remember what she becomes without him.”

The transmission ended.

Caelan removed his jacket

  • Reborn as the Ruthless Heir’s Contract Wife   He Never Survived That Night

    The mausoleum doors sealed.Gas did not enter.Water did not rise.Crowne had learned that physical traps no longer controlled us effectively.Instead, every screen displayed a different version of the night I died.On one, my car entered the river.On another, Caelan reached the bridge too late.A third showed the clinic.A fourth showed two bodies beneath the bridge.Octavian’s face remained above Evelyn’s empty grave.“How many timelines are these?” I asked.“Possibilities.”“Memories?”“Records.”“Your records?”“Some.”Caelan stood beside his father’s tomb.“You returned before us.”Octavian did not deny it.“The first return was accidental. Evelyn died. I followed soon afterward.”“How?” Caelan demanded.“M-17.”“Mother was the Keeper?”“No. She was the Voss key. Isabelle was the Keeper.”“Then why did you return?”“Because I was touching Evelyn when the sequence activated.”The mechanism had linked them, just as it later linked Caelan and me.“What did you change?” I asked.“Ev

  • Reborn as the Ruthless Heir’s Contract Wife   The Last Person Caelan Chased

    Caelan’s father was named Marcus Voss.He was Octavian’s second son and Evelyn’s second husband. Officially, Marcus died when Caelan was twelve after falling from a mountain road.No body was recovered.Of course.Octavian told Caelan his father had been weak, unreliable, and unwilling to accept family responsibility. Evelyn rarely spoke about him afterward.“Did you believe he was dead?” I asked.“Yes.”“Did you see him in the warehouse?”“I saw Darius.”“Someone wearing Darius’s face.”Caelan returned to the memory.“The man had Darius’s limp, voice, and ring. I shot him in the shoulder. He fell into the river.”“But Richard says your father died.”“I never saw the body.”Ronan searched photographs of Marcus and Darius. The brothers resembled each other closely when younger.Crowne’s prosthetics could have completed the disguise.“Why make Marcus look like Darius?” Father asked.“To control whom Caelan pursued,” I said. “He believed Darius knew about my death.”“And if he discovered

  • Reborn as the Ruthless Heir’s Contract Wife   The Warning I Refused to Hear

    Richard Mercer had warned Caelan about Crowne.He had also watched me reject every warning.The contradiction made him impossible to classify.Was he protecting me, using me, or attempting both?Father examined the office footage.“That walk belongs to Richard.”“You are certain?” I asked.“He injured his right shoulder during a sailing accident. One arm always moved less than the other.”The man outside my office carried himself exactly that way.“Why listen to our meeting?”“Perhaps he wanted to know whether you believed Caelan.”“And after I didn’t?”“He may have decided the planned timeline would continue.”The idea sickened me.Richard could have prevented the crash by exposing Crowne. Instead, he preserved calls and reports while allowing events to unfold.“He treated us like evidence,” I said.“Or variables,” Caelan replied.The language resembled Alaric’s.Perhaps father and son opposed each other’s goals while sharing the same willingness to manipulate lives.A message arrive

  • Reborn as the Ruthless Heir’s Contract Wife   He Tried to Reach Me

    Caelan had not begun warning me on the night of the crash.His first attempt came two years earlier.Ronan found the record inside the files Richard preserved. It documented messages, letters, meeting requests, and warnings sent under different names.Most never reached me.Selene intercepted two letters at Mercer House.Lucien’s assistant deleted three emails.Father’s former legal secretary redirected a package containing proof of the poisoned medication.Crowne did not rely on my refusal alone. It built a wall around me and allowed only messages that made Caelan appear dangerous.One warning did reach me.A handwritten note arrived six months after my wedding to Lucien.ASK WHY YOUR HUSBAND VISITS THE LAKE ARDEN HOTEL EVERY MONTH.I remembered tearing it apart.Selene found me holding the pieces and laughed.“Caelan Voss must be desperate if he thinks cheap jealousy will break your marriage.”I accepted her explanation because questioning Lucien felt humiliating.The hotel records

  • Reborn as the Ruthless Heir’s Contract Wife   The Phone Call Before Midnight

    Richard Mercer was Alaric’s first son.Father had grown up believing Richard would inherit everything. At twenty-six, Richard accused Alaric of using Mercer shipping routes for illegal Crowne operations.Three weeks later, his sailboat disappeared.Only wreckage returned.“No body,” I said.Father nodded.“The first funeral I attended without one.”“How many times did your family accept that explanation?”“We were trained not to question Alaric publicly.”Richard’s existence explained the unknown blood.As Alaric’s son, he shared the necessary markers. If Crowne treated him with C-17, he could have survived under another identity.“Why did you never tell me about him?”“Your mother asked me not to.”“Everyone uses her wishes to justify silence.”Father accepted the criticism.“Isabelle believed Richard worked against Crowne from inside. Speaking his name would expose him if he remained alive.”“Did he contact you?”“Once. Shortly before your third birthday.”“What did he say?”“That A

  • Reborn as the Ruthless Heir’s Contract Wife   The Blood They Never Identified

    Before listening to the full call, Helena received the laboratory results from Pike’s second blood sample.The blood found at the Meridian warehouse did not belong to Darius alone.A second man had bled beside him.Police marked the sample unidentified because the profile did not match any criminal database.Now we had Alaric’s hair from an old Mercer family brush preserved by Father.The partial match was close.The unidentified blood belonged to Alaric—or his biological son.Father was excluded.That left an unknown Mercer heir or my grandfather himself.“He was inside the warehouse that morning,” I said.Ronan checked the recovered photographs.“If Caelan fought Darius on the upper platform, Alaric may have watched from another room.”“Then Caelan did not chase a Crowne vehicle by chance. They drew him there.”“Using the same method they used with you,” Mara added. “A familiar asset moving in an unexpected place.”Crowne knew Caelan would follow evidence connected to my death.They
