last update Last Updated: 2025-04-21 14:55:57

AMAYA’S POV

A smile escaped my lips as my gaze wandered around the flowers. I was in a garden, my white pleated skirt flowing as I twirled in the soft breeze. My feet danced on the grass like a child’s—light and free.

Was this what heaven felt like?

Peaceful. Beautiful. No pain.

But just as I reached for a daisy, the colors began to fade. The sky turned gray. The scent of flowers vanished. A cold wind blew through the trees, and suddenly, I wasn’t dancing anymore. I was falling.

Then, I heard it. A voice that reminded me I had no peace.

"Amaya!"

That’s Logan.

My cruel husband.

A reminder of my cruel fate.

I gasped, choking on the air as my eyes fluttered open. Everything was white. Too white. The beeping sound beside me was harsh—sharp, real.

I blinked, trying to process where I was. Slowly, I moved my gaze around the socket and—bang!

I got it.

I wasn’t in Heaven.

I was still alive. In the hospital.

There’s really no end to this cruel life.

"Are you feeling okay?" I heard a masculine

    AMAYA'S POVThe bossy, dominant man... is scared of injections?!"You’re scared?" I blurted out, surprise written all over my face.For a moment, I regretted asking—but then again, I needed to. How could he be scared of needles?Logan rolled his eyes. "I’d like to correct that. I wasn’t scared. I’m just not interested in what weak people take. I’m not like them." He hissed."I’m really sorry for the confusion, Mr. Wellington," the doctor apologized and finally left the room.I kept staring at Logan. His face was tight with irritation. Of course he’d be pissed. He carried himself like some untouchable god—yet here he was, scared of needles. I wasn’t even surprised at his response. I already knew he’d find a way to cover the crack."What did my mum say to you back then?" Logan asked, his tone calm, almost grim.He’s going there. The conversation I’m not ready for."Can we talk about this later?" I asked, silently praying he’d agree."Why should we postpone something this important? I’m

I thought I wasn’t blinded by revenge anymore, but the truth was, I was just lost—everything around me seemed blurred for a moment.After the conversation with Amaya, I remembered everything—how my father died. The past suddenly became clear. I had once believed my mother was overreacting, but now I realized I was the one who had been dense. The truth hit me harder than I expected. I wanted to lash out, to throw her off the bed, but something stopped me.There’s a weight in my chest, holding me back, and I’m not ready to embrace these feelings. It’s even difficult for me to admit the truth: I’m in love. Yes. I’m in love with Amaya.If I were still the ruthless, heartless man I used to be, I would’ve gone as far as asking a doctor to give her something that would make her feel worse, but now

    AMAYA'S POVI jerked Eric's hand away from my shoulder the moment Logan entered. His arms were crossed, his expression unmistakably angry.I knew he would be upset—but why? Why does he even care? He’s never cared about me before, so why now? His sudden appearance took me by surprise, but what he said next completely shocked me."I don't think it's proper for a doctor to be this close. Get off my wife!"What? Did I hear that right? He just called me his wife—right in front of Eric.What was he plotting? What was he trying to initiate?He never called me his wife… well, maybe only when he wanted to make me feel small or humiliate me.But this? This didn't feel like one of those moments.Logan can be easily angered, but this was different. This wasn’t his usual cold detachment. Maybe… just maybe… he cares now.I sighed, my mind heavy with confusion. He keeps doing things that suggest feelings I don't want to admit he has.

Their voices bounced off sterile white walls, lost in the storm inside my head.I used to want her to feel it—the burden, the shame, the sins of her father.

    AMAYA POV The colorful grandeur and cheerful screams echoing across the hall contrasted sharply with the heaviness in my chest. The elegant decorations, neatly arranged tables, and the warm, inviting scent filling the air—all of it felt cold and suffocating to me. To everyone else, this is a union of powerful families, a symbol of love and prosperity. To me, it was nothing more than a sacrifice. I repositioned my veil, my shaking fingers lightly touching the silky material, and turning my head to look at my groom, my gaze met the groom positioned at the aisle's end. His tall frame stood confidently in a black tuxedo, exuding strength and authority. Even from a distance, his presence felt overwhelming. When my gaze finally met his face, my breath hitched. God of compassion… Is this really the man I’m marrying? His name, Logan, felt too simple for someone who looked like that. If names reflected appearances, he should have been called Prince. His features were impossibly sharp,

I had planned on making the Alfred family suffer for years, and finally, I had their daughter all to myself. I smiled, grabbing my phone from the car's dashboard. I dug into her personal life and found out she's not working in her father's company; she's a partner with a friend. I need to make her financially unstable. I sent some messages to Mr. Walton, who happens to be her boss. He did not think twice before agreeing to my condition to get her sacked and get his work promoted. Power is indeed the best weapon!I increased my speed, my grip on the wheel getting tighter as I drove down to my mother's mansion. What kind of mother refused to show up on her son's wedding day? When others are choosing a normal, caring mother, I choose a psycho.I halted my car after carefully parking in the lot a

Nova gave me some pills yesterday. I am grateful there’s still one person that cares about me in this strange house. I sighed, thinking how my life changed drastically, with my future crumbling. I wasn’t married to a handsome rich man. He was a demon! I pushed myself upright; his emotionless question echoed in my ears, a cruel reminder that I had made the wrong choice. A lump formed in my throat as his devilish smile flashed in my mind. My eyes welled up with tears, but I forced myself to stay composed. Crying wouldn’t help. Pressing my lips together, I silenced the sobs threatening to break free. Grabbing my phone, I fought the impulse to call my dad and tell him everything. What would I even say? That my boss fired me over a sudden letter, delivered without a shred of decency? That my so-called husband is hell-bent on

    LOGAN'S POVThe headlights cut through the night, but they barely illuminated the road ahead. Everything felt like a blur—rushed, chaotic, frantic. The only thing clear was the woman beside me, slumped against the seat, her skin ashen, her breathing shallow and ragged.Amaya.No, not her. Not like this.My hands gripped the steering wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white, but it wasn’t enough to still the anxiety clawing at my chest.If I had called the ambulance, it would have taken longer. I'd rather spend less time and drive her myself.In five minutes, I drove into the hospital. I quickly stepped out of my car and carried her inside."An emergency? Here, please," a nurse directed, and I placed Amaya on a bed."Where the heck is the doctor? Are you just going to stay here and watch her die?" I snapped."The doctor is right..."The nurse paused when a man in a white lab coat entered. "I will assess the patient," he said and strode over to Amaya, checking her pulse."You have to l

    LOGAN'S POVI stared at Amaya's back as she walked out of the ward.I smirked, trying to control the tears threatening to burst out. I even sniffed, pretending to cry, but she only paused briefly before continuing to walk away.I don't even know why I wanted to cry. Maybe it’s because Beatrice is in the CPR room, fighting for her life all because I chose Amaya—or maybe it's because Amaya has been acting distant since she woke up. Why can’t I just order her to stop? I was practically begging for her attention with the way I sniffed.I sighed as my mum’s words replayed in my mind. “You are in love with her!”No.I can never be in love with a woman like Amaya. She deserves nothing but my wrath.I was jolted out of my thoughts when Maxon entered.I had called him earlier and explained everything to him. After my mum, he's the only one who understands me.I stared at him as he strode over."You’re really the worst. How could you do that to your mum, all because of a woman?" Maxon snapped,

    AMAYA'S POVSlowly, I opened my eyes, scanning the room. I was in the hospital.I tried to recall what had happened before I ended up here, but my mind felt as drained as my body. Weakness weighed me down.Then—bang!Beatrice had driven me to an ocean and pushed me in when I refused to give in.FLASHBACK"Who the hell do you think you are?" Beatrice’s voice dripped with authority and disdain. She stared at me, waiting, but I had no response. She had always known me as Alfred’s daughter—there was no need for introductions.“I know why you’re around Logan, confusing him, playing the clueless wife because you don’t know why he married you. He maltreated you before, didn’t he?" Beatrice smiled, her tone laced with mockery.Slowly, I lifted my head and met her gaze. Now, I was interested. I had always wanted to know—why had Logan married me? Why had he been treating me so cruelly?I shook my head, denying her words, and she let out a short laugh before her face returned to a stern expressi
