LOGIN"Do you enjoy this? Ignoring me like I don’t exist? Do you have any idea how humiliating this feels, waiting for you like some fool?" After three years of a cold, loveless marriage, Selene Henderson finally gathers the courage to walk away from her distant billionaire husband, Sebastian Kingsley. She's ready to file for divorce... until a tragic accident changes everything. When Sebastian wakes up with no memory of the woman he once pushed away, Selene finds herself trapped in a marriage she was desperate to escape—this time with a man who suddenly looks at her like she's his whole world. But can love born from broken memories survive the truth of their painful past? Or will the secrets she’s been hiding destroy them all over again?
View MoreSELENE Ever since that picture of Sebastian and me began circulating online, my phone hadn’t known a moment of peace. Notifications flooded the screen nonstop. Messages. Mentions. Tags. Most of them were from television producers requesting interviews. Others were from people I didn’t even know, tagging me in posts and articles with dramatic headlines. Sebastian Kingsley’s Mystery Wife. The Hidden Mrs. Kingsley Finally Appears. I stood in the hallway of the gallery, leaning lightly against the wall as I scrolled through yet another notification. One of the tags led to a video, and curiosity got the better of me. I tapped on it. A group of hosts sat around a table, enthusiastically dissecting my marriage like it was a puzzle they had been waiting years to solve. They tossed around theories—why Sebastian had never shown me in public before, why he had kept me hidden for so long. My eyes lingered on the screen.Hidden wife. The words left a faint bitternes
SELENE I took a slow breath, steadying myself before knocking on the door. My fingers lingered on the knob for a second before I twisted it and stepped inside. Jordan was already there, lounging comfortably on the couch. Father sat behind his office desk, his attention fixed on the television mounted on the wall. The soft glow from the screen flickered across the room. "You’re here," Father acknowledged without looking at me. I nodded. But as I moved to take a seat, the conversation coming from the television made me stop mid-step. "Has the reclusive wife finally gained the spotlight?" one of the TV hosts asked, turning toward the others with obvious curiosity. "I was so shocked when I saw the picture of Sebastian Kingsley and his wife last night," another host added. "Especially since the two of them have never been spotted together before." A shaky breath slipped from my lungs. My eyes instinctively shifted to Father. He was watching the television with
SEBASTIAN The moment the bathroom door closed behind me, I braced both hands against the sink and stared at my reflection. My pulse was still racing. Jesus Christ. I dragged a hand through my hair, exhaling slowly, but Selene's scent still clung stubbornly to my lungs. One more second in that bed and I would have kissed her. Worse than that, I wasn't sure I would have stopped there. I tipped my head back with a long sigh, the image replaying in my mind whether I wanted it to or not — Selene on the bed, her lips slightly parted, her body leaning toward mine as if she had no idea what she was doing to me. "Fuck." The word slipped out under my breath. I stripped off my clothes and stepped into the shower, twisting the knob until the water came rushing down. Cold water splashed over my body. It should have helped. It should have cleared my head. It should have shocked my system back into control. But it didn't. If anything, the memory of her le
I learned two things during that drive. First, Sebastian notices far too much about me. And second, apparently I bite my lip when I'm nervous. SELENE The date might not have gone the way I imagined it would. In fact, it had been nothing like the version I had played over and over in my head before tonight. But strangely, it made me realize things I had never really noticed before. Like the way Sebastian was still struggling with whatever this was between us. And with my feelings for him. I had always known I loved Sebastian. That part had never been uncertain. I had been sure of it since the first day I set my eyes on him. But tonight made me realize something I hadn't understood before. Loving someone once wasn't the end of it. You could keep falling in love with the same person again... and again... and again. There weren't really words to explain it. Only the quiet, terrifying certainty that I was already far too deep in it. So deep that the thought of ever
Sebastian kissed me as if he were starving... as if I were his last meal. SELENE Water slipped down my skin in slow trails as I pulled back from him. For a moment neither of us moved. His hand was still at my waist. Mine was still curled against his shoulder. The space between us was bare
I didn't remember my life, but my body remembered her. SEBASTIAN The first thing I noticed after waking up was how often my gaze drifted to her. Not because I was meant to, but because something inside me did it on its own, instinctive, like muscle memory without the memory. I would be ly
Some people have a way of showing up exactly when you least want them to. SELENE Sebastian turned his head toward the voice that had called his name. I didn't. I didn't need to. I already knew who it was. Anton stepped into place beside me, facing Sebastian as if he had every right to s
There are questions you prepare for, and then there are the ones that steal your breath. SELENE "Is that what you're curious about?" I asked, forcing my voice to remain light. "Yes." Sebastian nodded, his eyes never leaving my face, waiting patiently, expectantly for an answer. He
