The thrill of power surged through me like fire. For the first time in years, I felt untouchable.

Every betrayal, every humiliation, every sleepless night of despair—it all pointed to this moment.

I shut my eyes and I could remember all the pains. My nose bled again, and I tilted my head backwards, grabbing the nearest tissue to stop it.

I opened the company folders carefully. Contracts, bank statements, property deeds… all under my name now.

I don't know how Dennis did it, but he managed to ge

    The line went silent for a moment. I could hear nothing but the shallow, uneven breathing of James on the other end. Then, a low growl came from him, laced with panic he was trying desperately to hide. “You think… you think this is a game?” he spat finally. I laughed softly, letting it echo in the otherwise quiet office. My hand rested lightly on the folders stacked neatly in front of me—contracts, bank statements, deeds—all weapons now in my arsenal. “No, Mr James,” I said, my voice calm, measured. “This is reality. Your reality. The one you created. And now… you get to live it.” The line crackled with tension. I could practically feel the beads of sweat forming on his brow through the distance. “What do you mean I created for myself? What is this madness Mrs Hawkins? Who the hell are you? I… I’ll call the cops! I’ll—” “Call them,” I interrupted sharply. “They won’t stop me. Everything here is legal. Everything is mine. You taught me how ruthless life can be. You taught me tha

    Past events can be therapeutic. The rain brought back all my memories. Every word my father spoke that night. The laughter of his wife and the way I was thrown out of my marital home. “I remember!” I cried, tears running down my face. “You remember? Is that for real?” Dennis asked, grabbing my hands. I hung my head, ashamed, saddened. “Yes, Dennis. I remember every detail now.” Dennis held me in his arms. He started the car and sped off into the night. The crack of thunder above our heads sounded as I told him everything. Dennis kept looking at me. We were both facing the same problem. Our assets stolen by those close to us, and probably death waiting at the end of the road. It was as if fate had brought us together for a reason. “You will take revenge. I will help you. We will bleed them dry and get back everything that belongs to you. I will make them kneel at your feet and beg for mercy. Even death will be too merciful for them,” Dennis said angrily, as thunder se

    [ After three months ] Life had always been made of good and evil. Dennis was everything I could ever ask for. He was gentle, caring, and loving. He had managed to introduce me to everyone and had even said that we were married even though I hadn’t seen any pictures of our wedding. We had just finished a special event, and on the way back, he looked at me. “I want you to be ready, Lydia. My family is coming for me. And they will try to take everything my father worked for.” My heart tightened. I looked at his face, and I could see that he was scared. But how could I fight his battles when I hadn’t even overcome mine? Dennis squeezed my hands. “My father’s instructions were for me to get married. It was the only way for me to protect myself. That was his last wish before his death. I don’t know why, but I think I’m going to find out soon. But I want you by my side, I want the world to see the woman I love.” His words were bittersweet, but I had to know why his family was such a

    Am I wrong? When you hit your head the way I did, aren’t you supposed to be dead? I felt life slip away from my body the moment my head hit the stone, but here I am, in the arms of a strange man who calls me his wife. Was I really dead, or was I already in heaven? My husband saw the expression on my face and immediately ordered everyone to leave the room. The doctor and the maid left, and we were alone. “Who are you?” I finally asked, staring at him. “You can call me Dennis Hawkins,” he said with a smile. My head tried to remember where I had heard that name before. The Hawkins were the most powerful business magnates in the city. They owned major business accounts and awarded contracts to other companies. I laughed. It was rather funny to sit with a man whose wife was supposed to be far better than me. “Is something wrong? Should I call the doctor?” he asked, raising his brows. “You… my husband… how is this even…” The word hung in my throat. “Possible? You were exactly t

    I was now standing on the high bridge, with a stream of powerful rivers below. Many people walked past me, each going about their business. I could hear their voices. Not that I cared anyway. “She can’t jump. Have you ever seen anyone jump into the river? I bet she’s just doing this to get attention.” “And what if she does? We should try to stop her.” “And why should we care? I don’t give a damn if she dies or not. She should have just hanged herself and been done with it.” The world was cruel to me, even when I wanted to kill myself. My heart was beating faster than usual. I knew what I was doing, but it was the only option for a woman who had lost everything. Her home, her husband, and even the family she thought was on her side. In a flash, I jumped. The air filled my lungs as I gasped, but it was too late. I fell into the sea and hit my head against a rock. The current was so strong that I couldn’t fight for my life. Gbmm! Gbmm! That was the only sound I heard before
