Revenge From Ashes, Ruin for the Billionaire 010 It’s Not My Fault
(Zach)The door beeps and swings open.I freeze. No one should have that code except me, Ava, the house staff.But it’s not staff rushing through my doorway. It’s him.Caleb Martin.I haven’t seen him since around the time Lila was born. Even then, he barely looked at me. He came to see Ava, not me.Always Ava.I hate their history even though she never as much as mentioned him. I know how he feels about her, about me. I feel it.And now he’s here, storming straight into my house like he owns the place.No knock. No hesitation. Like he knew something was happening.How the hell did he get my door code?My stomach twists. Ava must have given it to him. Why?Was this planned?Is that what this is? Did she play the victim tonight just so he could charge in and take her away? Was she punishing me because she thought I was having an affair with Sienna?The thought makes my blood boil.How could Ava set all this up without me knowing. Why?I hear Ava scream and Sienna does too.I turn and

(Serena)The silence stretches.Zach shakes his head, like he’s trying to make the words rearrange themselves. “This… this can’t—”“It can,” I cut in my voice sharp.“It’s the truth. The truth you were so quick to throw away because she—” I flick my gaze to Sienna, savoring the way her jaw tightens, “lied to you, not me.”Zach falters.His fury is cracked now, bleeding into confusion. “Ava, I—”But I don’t let him finish. “You what, Zach? You can’t take back what you just said to me.”Inside, I’m drinking in every second of their shock, storing it up like the sweetest wine.“You have zero faith or trust in me. I cannot be with someone like that.”This is what victory tastes like.I know Caleb will walk through that door in three minutes.All I have to do is keep Zach rooted here long enough. Long enough that Sienna doesn’t get me alone.I lean forward, locking eyes with him. “Look at me, Zach. Go look at Lila. And then look at her.”I nod toward Sienna. “Ask yourself who’s been lying

(Ava)The slam of the front door rattles the frame.I already know it’s him.Zach storms into the living room, fury radiating off him in waves, his jaw tight, his eyes so sharp they could slice me open.Sienna trails behind him, arms folded, lips curved in that smug little smirk that makes me want to claw her face off.He throws a folder across the table, the papers scattering.“You lied to me,” he spits. His voice is low, dangerous. “You lied about everything.”I force myself to look calm even though my pulse hammers against my ribs. “What are you talking about?”He snatches up one of the sheets, shaking it in my face. “This. Proof. Lila is not mine.”My throat tightens even though I knew this moment was coming.I make my voice soft, pleading. “Those results are wrong, Zach. You know they’re wrong.”“Don’t you dare.” He slams his fist onto the table so hard the glass rattles. “Don’t you stand there and pretend you didn’t trick me into this marriage.”“I never.”“You were already pre
Revenge From Ashes, Ruin for the Billionaire 007 Setting Up Dominoes
(Ava)Monday is here. I have a lot to do.In my first life, today was the day everything began to unravel.Zach and Sienna were in his office, saying how he never wanted to marry me. How he only needed a baby to get bone marrow from. That was the start of the end.Because even though I know Zach loves me now. Those words ripped my world apart. And made me see that he would also cast me aside when I was no longer useful to him.His love was never forever.This time I won’t stand outside the door. I won’t listen at all. I already know what’s coming.What I need is to make sure it all still happens, that the false test gets waved in his face, that he stays away from me tonight.I need history to line up. Because tomorrow, I’ll have the real proof in my hand.But if Sienna manages to drug me again, I need someone who knows the truth. I need someone in my corner.So I pack Lila’s diaper bag, buckle her in the car seat, and drive across town to Paige’s house.I know she will believe this c

(Ava)Later that night on our rooftop terrace the Vegas skyline glitters, but I’m not looking at the lights.I’m thinking about Tuesday.About Zach Lorne’s reaction when I sign those divorce papers.The Strip glitters like a mirage, mocking me with the memory of our impulsive wedding night. That night was my first time.He doesn’t know this time is goodbye. He doesn’t know I’m about to make him bare his soul, only to rip it from his chest.The baby monitor screen glows faintly on the table beside me. Lila is safe, sleeping two floors below. She’s my reason, my shield, the heartbeat.I’ll never let anyone endanger her again.The door clicks. I don’t turn. I don’t have to. The heat of his presence wraps around me before he even speaks.“Ava,” Zach says softly, his voice low, coaxing. “Lila’s out like a light.”I keep my eyes on the horizon. “She had a big day.”His hand presses at the small of my back.My body shivers at the touch, traitorous as always.I force myself to remember: ton
Revenge From Ashes, Ruin for the Billionaire 005 Protecting Lila
(Ava) Zach and Kai are still waiting at the ice cream truck when I notice Sienna drifting my way.Everything about her is perfect, her sundress catching in the light breeze, her hair loose and shining.She’s a picture out of a magazine, sugar and polish with that smile she uses to fool everyone.Everyone but me now I know what they did to me and to Lila in my past life.She stops just a few feet from our blanket and waves at Lila. “That line’s ridiculous. They’ll be forever.”I don’t answer. Lila pulls at my necklace with sticky fingers, and I gently redirect her little hands to my shirt.She rests her cheek against me, and my chest tightens. Her instinct to cling, her refusal of Sienna earlier… surely none of it is coincidence. She knows.Somehow my baby has some recall.I hope it’s not everything. I hope she never has to ever remember all of what they did to her.“I’ll sit with you guys.”Sienna lowers herself onto the blanket without waiting for permission, smoothing her skirt ov
