LOGINYou all...I died a broken bride and I woke up a vengeful queen eight months in the past. I won't make such mistake again. Fidelia Crawford was the perfect pawn. She trusted her "step father" Derek, loved her fiancé Silas, and adored her stepsister Bridget. Well that foolish trust cost her everything. On her wedding night, she found Silas and Bridget in the ultimate betrayal, having a hot steamy sex. When she tried to flee, they didn't just let her go—they left her for dead on a cold marble floor. But the universe offered Fidelia a miracle: she woke up eight months before her murder. Now, the "innocent heiress" is gone. In her place is a woman with the skills of a master hacker and the heart of a mercenary and knowledge of the past. To dismantle the Crawford empire, Fidelia needs a powerful ally, and she knows exactly where to find him: He is Andrian Richardson a dangerous billionaire playboy with a reputation for destruction and a deep-seated grudge against her family. Fidelia offers him a contract marriage he can’t refuse. The plan is simple: marry the man her stepsister wants, strip her enemies of their fortune, and disappear. But as the lines between their fake marriage and real passion begin to blur, Fidelia realizes Andrian has secrets of his own—secrets that tie back to her father’s death. They killed her for her inheritance. Now, she’s coming back for their souls. Meanwhile she finds herself falling again for Andrian while he would do anything to keep her safe. But their past won't let such ever happen. Will they give up or will they fight?
View MoreFidelia pushed open the door of her fiancé’s house, her wedding gown sweeping the floor like some ridiculous, overpriced fairytale costume she had been stupid enough to believe in.
She had come to surprise him — to show Silas how sexy and glowing she looked in this dress before heading home. They were supposed to get married the next morning, after all. She wasn’t even supposed to see him tonight, but here she was anyway, playing the lovesick fool. Surprise, babe. Look at your future wife. The next thing she heard was laughter. And moans. Filthy, rhythmic moans coming from deeper inside the house. Her stomach dropped so fast she almost stumbled in her heels. Why am I hearing a familiar voice…? Is that not the sound of… She followed the sounds anyway, because apparently she enjoyed torturing herself. The moans grew louder, cruder, each one carving into her chest like a knife. She walked through the hallway in her pristine white wedding gown, the fabric dragging behind her like it was mocking her. The bedroom door wasn’t even shut — of course it wasn’t. Why would they bother hiding? Clothes and underwear were scattered everywhere like trash, even a crumpled white sheet tossed aside carelessly. Her heart hammered painfully fast. When she pushed the door open, the sight punched her straight in the sternum. Fidelia couldn’t move. Tears instantly formed in her eyes as she felt herself about to break down right there in the doorway like an idiot. No, no, this can’t be happening. It shouldn’t be Silas and Bridget… please, not them. But the truth was bitter, ugly, and right in front of her. It was actually them. Her stepsister Bridget and her fiancé were on the bed, having sex right in front of her. And they were lost in their lustful act. “Ah… harder… fuck me!” They weren’t even trying to be quiet. Bridget was moaning his name loudly, and Silas was driving into her fast with intense pleasure, spanking her ass in rhythm like he owned her. “Silas… I’m coming!” Bridget cried out. Fidelia couldn’t hold it anymore. The tears dropped as she gasped, covering her mouth. My fiancé. My own fiancé. God, how had she ended up like this? The night before our wedding? Are you serious right now, Silas? Her phone dropped from her trembling fingers and clattered loudly on the floor. In shock, Silas and Bridget turned and saw her standing there, tears flowing down her cheeks. No. It can’t be. He wouldn’t. Not the night before our wedding. Fidelia tried convincing herself, but she was witnessing it with her own eyes. My stepsister? Really? Her stepsister was naked. So was her fiancé. Silas stood up quickly, trying to move closer to her. Bridget, on the other hand, didn’t even flinch. She stretched lazily across the bed like a satisfied cat, lips curling into a slow, poisonous smile. “Oh. You’re early.” Fuck, I was about to come. That seemed to be the only worry in Bridget’s head. Of course. Priorities, right? “Come on, she’ll be fine,” Bridget said, trying to stop him from going after Fidelia. She’s weak. She always forgives. She actually doesn’t care. Silas and Fidelia were still going to marry tomorrow — except Fidelia wanted a miserable life, apparently. But Fidelia had already stormed out, dragging that stupid gown behind her and picking up her phone as she rushed out of the house. Tears streamed down her face in intense pain. She felt betrayed, played, and used. How could her stepsister and her fiancé have sex with each other the night before our wedding? They must have been dating, and yet she was the one getting married to him. Memories of Silas and Bridget laughing, hugging, and always being way too close flashed through her head like knives. She even remembered the day of his birthday when she had come to Silas’s house and saw her sister there wearing his clothes with a cake on the table. The cake in her own hand had almost fallen, but she had endured and asked what was going on. They had explained that Bridget was getting her brother-in-law a birthday gift and her clothes got stained by the cake, so she changed into his. That was all a lie. How could I have been so stupid to believe it? Fidelia was already in her car, searching frantically for her keys in her bag. She couldn’t find them at first. When she finally did, her hands were shaking so badly she could barely get the key in the ignition. When she finally managed, Silas caught up with her and held her hands. “Babe, I can explain,” Silas said, trying to find words but none came out properly. The one excuse she had always seen in movies when the other person cheated. Now she heard it herself. How original, Silas. Just what the fuck did he want to say?“Mom, I’m worried,” Bridget said quietly. “Do you think she’ll report what we did to her?”Her mother gave a short, dismissive laugh. “She? No. She’s been acting tough lately, but today I saw how scared she really is. She’s just the same little girl I used to control back then. Nothing’s changed.”A cold smile crossed her face. “After today, she’s learned not to offend me again.”Fidelia stirred awake, her eyes slowly blinking open as she lay on the bed. The ceiling above her was unfamiliar. She didn’t know where she was… or how she got here.All she could remember was Andrian — his face appearing in her room, the sound of his voice, and him driving her somewhere.Then it hit her. Flashes. Violent, raw flashes of the past. Her stepmother. Her sister’s voices, the cruelty, the betrayal. The pain.The trauma she thought she had buried clawed its way back, and before she could stop herself, tears started to pool and stream down her face.She curled up tighter on the bed, trying to suppre
Andrian drove recklessly, not even bothering to watch his speed. All he could think about was Fidelia — the possibility that she was in trouble kept flashing in his mind like a warning siren.When he got in front of her house, he parked haphazardly, not even checking if he had done it right. He flung open the car door and ran toward the gate, not caring to shut it behind him. Luckily, the gate was open.Before entering, he paused. That was when he noticed Fidelia’s car parked beside the wall of the house.'She’s inside'That certainty hit him like a punch. He bolted through the compound and reached the front door. He pressed the doorbell. No answer. He pressed it again, harder this time. Still nothing. Then he started banging loudly on the door.Inside, Bridget and Alice rushed into the living room, startled by the loud noise. When they saw Andrian through the peephole, Bridget immediately started panicking.“Mom it’s Andrian, he is here!!”“What is he doing here?” she whispered, hear
“Open the door!” Fidelia shouted, rushing to it, banging her fists.Alice’s muffled voice came through the door. “You really think you’ve won, don’t you?”Bridget joined in, voice trembling. “You’re not marrying Andrian. You’re delusional if you think you can blackmail your way in.”Fidelia’s eyes narrowed, fury brewing behind them. “Open the damn door!! This is kidnapping. You’re locking me in?”“No sweetheart, it’s just your mom disciplining you” Alice replied coldly. “We’re putting you in your place. It’s been a long while I have done that so you have indeed forgotten I’m in charge around here”Fidelia stepped back, breathing hard as she stared at the door.Fidelia was still shouting, slamming her fists against the locked door.“Open this door now! Do you hear me?! I said open it!”“Please, I’m begging you…open the door I can’t stay here”She kicked hard, the sound echoing through the hallway.But no one answered. Then she heard it — the sharp, bone-jarring smash of something hitti
Fidelia went back home. Now that she was getting married, it was time to pack her things and inform her stepsister, and of course, her stepmother. That was part of the revenge: making them watch her rise, powerless to stop it.The moment she stepped into the house, her stepmother stormed toward her like a raging bull.“How dare you brat!” she screamed, grabbing Fidelia by the arm. “You ruined everything! I had that marriage perfectly planned!”Fidelia rolled her eye and didn’t flinch instead she yanked her arm free and stared her stepmother dead in the eyes, a cold smirk curling her lips.“Perfectly planned? Tsk…I suggest you use such amazing skills for Bridget. She desperately need a new husband after I stole hers”“And just so you are aware, I already made it clear that I broke up with Silas,” she said coolly. Then she leaned back and whispered loudly.“You can’t control me anymore, Mother and I’ll suggest you don’t try to.”“You better shut it Fidelia, I have no idea what had gotte
