LOGINJune died the night her husband betrayed her. She came home pregnant to find him in bed with her stepbrother. Hours later, a bullet tore through her in a random shooting. She felt her baby slip away. She should have died. Instead, she woke up in someone else’s body. The face in the mirror wasn’t hers. Everyone called her Chloe. And the man who shot her? Nikolai, who was cold and ruthless. Their marriage was a business transaction. He used her body without tenderness, spoke to her with cruelty, and made it clear she meant nothing. He was still mourning his dead fiancée. He had no idea his wife wasn’t Chloe at all. Trapped in a stranger’s life, June had to survive in a world of wealth and secrets. She had to find her real body. She had to pretend. But things got complicated. Because secrets don’t stay buried, allies become lovers, and the man who destroyed her life is about to discover exactly who’s been sleeping in his bed.
View MoreJune’s PovAfter what happened between me and the new guy I saw, I decided to sleep more. After a few minutes I woke up and was lost in thoughts.A soft knock on the door pulled me out of my thoughts. I sat up quickly, heart jumping. Was it Nikolai again? I wrapped a robe around myself and opened the door.Mrs. McCoy stood there, Nikolai’s mother, smiling gently. “Good morning, Chloe. Can I come in for a moment?”“Sure,” I said, stepping aside. I ran my fingers through my messy hair, trying to smooth it down. “Pardon my hair. I just woke up.”She waved her hand as she stepped inside. “It is okay, dear. No need to apologize.” She sat on the edge of the bed and patted the spot beside her. “Come sit with me.”I sat down, pulling the robe tighter around myself. My body still felt sore from the night before. Everything felt heavy.Mrs. McCoy took my hand in hers. Her touch was warm, almost motherly. “I just wanted to thank you personally for what you did yesterday. Nikolai told me the deal
Nikolai’s PovI walked back into the house, jaw tight, anger still burning under my skin. Chloe never stopped finding new ways to test me. That scene at the bar could have been all over the news if I had not handled it quickly. Thank God I kissed her in front of everyone. It looked romantic. The kind of thing people expect from a new husband. But inside I was furious. She had gone there after telling me she was visiting her father. Who knew what she was really doing before I arrived.I went to my study and tried to push it out of my mind. I sat down and started scrolling through emails, answering what I could. Work had always been the one thing that made sense. Numbers did not lie. Deals did not betray you.My phone rang. It was Mr. Hayes, Chloe’s father.I picked up. “Good evening, sir.”“Nikolai,” he said, voice warm but businesslike. “I have good news. I have decided to finalize the deal we discussed. All the papers are ready on my end. We can move forward with the partnership.”I
June’s PovI sat at the table with Blue, my hands still shaking from everything I had just poured out. The bar felt too bright now, too full of eyes that kept glancing our way. I kept my head down, hoping no one was recording. Blue stared at me like she was seeing a ghost.“So you really don’t remember who took you after the shooting?” she asked quietly.“No,” I whispered. “Everything after the gunshot is just darkness. Then I woke up in the hospital and everyone was calling me Chloe.”Blue rubbed her forehead. “This is insane. Nikolai shot you? You’re sure it was him?”“I will never forget his face,” I said, my voice cracking. “He was the last thing I saw before I thought I was dying. And now I’m married to him. In her body.”Blue looked around quickly, then stood up. “I need a drink. Stay right here. I’ll be back in a second.”She walked toward the bar. I tried to smile to myself, but it felt broken. For the first time in days I had someone who believed me. Someone who knew the real
June’s PovI stepped into the bar and the world shifted around me. The place was quiet, dimly lit, with soft music playing in the background. For one second I felt like I could breathe. Then the hostess looked up, her eyes widened, and she smiled like she had just seen a movie star.“Mrs. McCoy,” she said warmly. “Welcome. It is so good to see you.”Mrs. McCoy. The name hit me like a slap. I was Mrs. McCoy now. Nikolai’s wife. Chloe’s name on my body. I forced a small smile and nodded, but inside my stomach twisted. People at nearby tables turned their heads. Phones came out. Whispers started. Oh my God, it’s Chloe McCoy. She’s here. Look at her.I had forgotten. Completely forgotten that in this body I was famous. A model with millions of followers. Everyone knew my face. I wanted to turn around and run back to the car, but the hostess was already leading me to a quiet corner booth that felt private enough. Still, I could feel eyes on me. Every step, every breath, someone was watchin
June's POVI spent the rest of the afternoon searching for that key.I went through every drawer again. Checked every jewelry box. Looked inside every shoe. Pulled books off shelves to see if anything was hidden behind them.Nothing.By the time the sun started setting, my back ached from bending o
June’s PovAs Nikolai left and closed the door behind him, I thought at least this was over for now. At least I could be alone in the darkness.It was already night. The room was cold and quiet.I was still sitting on the floor when I heard the door open again.Who the hell is that?I looked up and
June’s POVI stood frozen in that room for what felt like hours after Betty left. My whole body was shaking. Not from cold, but from pure fear and confusion.Betty didn’t know I was June. She thought I was Chloe. Which meant Betty had been sleeping with Frederick and Chloe at the same time? Or did
Nikolai’s PovI didn’t even know why I answered for her.The question hung in the air. My mother was staring at Chloe. Betty was staring at Chloe. Even my father had paused his meal to watch her fumble for words.She looked like a deer caught in headlights. Eyes wide. Mouth opening and closing. Com
