~Melissa’s POV~

Stepping out of the airport, a cool gust of wind brushed against my skin and make-up contoured face, roughly tussling my chestnut brown hair. As an unfamiliar sensation surges through me. Liberation? Freedom? or perhaps Power?. I couldn't tell for sure, but it sure felt damn good.

Two years had breezed by in a jiffy.

Two years, I had spent navigating the hallowed halls of European business schools, forging connections and meticulously crafting my persona to slip into the role of my new status......as an heiress, and CEO of Cassagrande holdings. Currently the No.#1 thriving hospitality firm in the country and it was all mine to claim.

My pastel blue tailored blazer felt like a second layer of skin, as my heels clicked with purpose on the tarmac below.

Each step, a declaration...... I was ready!.

"Welcome back, Miss Cassagrande”. the family chauffeur, Mr. Anderson, greeted, with his usual stoic face softened by a rare smile. Standing beside the sleek black Mercedes AM

  • Twisted Fate: Second chance Heiress    Chapter 26: Mind Games

    ~Isabella’s POV~I should’ve known.I should’ve realized the moment I saw that message, the cold chill that ran down my spine, the overwhelming sense of dread that flooded me....this was Dante’s game all along.It was so obvious now. Only he would be audacious enough to send that picture, to trap me in a moment of vulnerability. And to think, I’d spent hours....hours....torturing myself over who could have sent it. Trying to conjure a faceless enemy, a phantom from my past who knew my deepest secret. I had built a fortress of paranoia around myself, convinced that someone, somewhere, had finally discovered that Melissa Mondragon was still alive. As if anyone else would be so bold, so daring, so calculated. But of course, it was Dante. Of course.The man never did anything without a reason. He played a game, and I was his pawn, whether I liked it or not. And now here he stood, a smug look on his face, watching me unravel in front of him.But what I couldn’t understand was why. Why g

  • Twisted Fate: Second chance Heiress    Chapter 25: Closer than you think

    ~Isabella’s POV~ Morning came too soon, as the first rays of dawn pressed against my window...pale and fragile, like an unwelcome reminder of reality. I hadn’t slept...not even for a second. The sheets beside me were a mess, tangled and twisted, soaked with sweat from hours of restless tossing. My body ached for rest, but my mind refused to shut down, its constant loop of thoughts and images mocking me. Not just the kiss. Not just of Robert.But that damned message. The phone still sat on my nightstand, its black screen like a watchful eye. A silent, damning presence. That picture…that text. My stomach clenched every time I thought of it.“Fun Night.” The words burned into my memory. Who would send that? Who was watching me so closely, closely enough to catch me in such a vulnerable, dangerous moment? And why? I’d checked the number again and again. Unregistered. Anonymous. A phantom hiding behind digital smoke and mirrors. But it was the image that had gutted me....the clarity

  • Twisted Fate: Second chance Heiress    Chapter 24: The Ghost on My Lips

    ~Robert’s POV~ I came back into focus with a sharp, stinging pain. The sound of the slap was a deafening crack that echoed in the sudden silence of the bar, a sound so loud it seemed to pull me out of the hazy, drunken trance I had been in. My head snapped to the side, the burning sensation on my cheek. It wasn’t just a slap, it was a jolt back to reality. She was gone. Isabella was gone. And I was left standing there, a dazed fool in the middle of a crowded bar, a spectacle for everyone to gawk at, with the ghost of Melissa on my lips and the fiery reality of Isabella’s fury on my face. My palm lifted slowly, almost instinctively, and I pressed it against my cheek. I could still feel the heat radiating from where her hand had landed, pulsing like a brand. It wasn’t just pain....it was shame. A raw reminder of how low I’d sunk. My mind felt like a tangled web. Slapped twice, in one day. First by Jodie, my fiancé, a woman I had failed to protect and reassure. And now, by Isabell

  • Twisted Fate: Second chance Heiress    Chapter 23: The Memory of you-Pt.2

    ~Isabella’s POV~ My world came to a screeching halt. The moment his lips touched mine, a jolt of pure shock shot through me, stunning me into complete stillness. My eyes, wide and unblinking, stared at a spot on the wall behind him. It took me a second to comprehend what had just happened. A second too long, maybe. The warmth of his breath lingered, mixing with the faint taste of whiskey as his hands grasped me with the same urgency as the man I had once loved. But I wasn’t Melissa anymore.I couldn’t be her. Not after everything.My chest felt tight, my pulse erratic, my breath caught in some kind of limbo between wanting to pull away and wanting to remain suspended in that moment. I hadn’t moved, still rooted in my seat. My body froze, caught somewhere between what should have been natural and what was so very wrong. My heart hammered in my chest, pounding so loudly that I couldn’t hear anything else, couldn’t feel anything else.His lips were warm, soft, too familiar. I couldn

  • Twisted Fate: Second chance Heiress    Chapter 22: The memory of you

    ~Isabella’s POV~ I checked the clock on my phone: 10:17 p.m. Finally. If someone had asked me at noon what time it was, I would’ve sworn it was still nine in the morning. My entire schedule had been swallowed whole by back to back meetings, relentless questions from junior associates, and the incessant drone of voices pitching numbers and strategies that I could barely keep track of anymore. My desk had looked like the aftermath of a paper storm....files piled high, reports that needed reviewing, numbers that needed combing through line by line, contracts that demanded signatures. I signed my name so many times I thought my hand would cramp. By four o’clock, my eyes had felt like sandpaper, my head buzzing from the fluorescent lights overhead and the endless click click click of keyboards all around me. Still, I wore the mask....calm, composed, efficient Isabella Cassagrande. The woman who had risen from ashes, sculpted herself anew, and now commanded a presence that silenced roo

  • Twisted Fate: Second chance Heiress    Chapter 21: Blame Games

    ~Robert’s POV~ The Mondragon Tower’s penthouse office was a monument to success, but it felt more like a cage to me. The sprawling skyline of the city, usually a source of pride, seemed to mock me with its indifferent glow. It was just after 6 a.m., and the only sounds were the soft hum of the air conditioning and the rhythmic tapping of my pen against the mahogany desk. I'd been here since 4 a.m., unable to shake the lingering terror of the nightmare that had jolted me awake. Melissa's face, a grotesque mosaic of glass and blood, was burned into my mind. Her chilling whisper, "You'll never have any peace," echoed in the silent room. I'd thought coming here would help, that burying myself in work would silence the ghosts. But my mind was a fractured mess. Earlier, I'd signed my name on a quarterly report, only to realize I’d scrawled “Melissa” right across the signature line. The morning meeting with the board had been a disaster. I couldn't focus, my leg bouncing uncontrollably u
