CHAPTER 1

Anya’s POVFive Years Ago“I don’t want you seeing that boy anymore,” my father warned, his voice cold and firm. “He’s nothing but a poor rat who’s after the Russell fortune.”We were in his office upstairs while my graduation party was still going on downstairs. I could hear the faint sound of laughter and music through the walls. Everyone was probably dancing and celebrating, but I stood there in my father’s office, my heart pounding and my eyes burning.“Dad, you’re wrong,” I said softly, trying to hold back tears. “Chase isn’t like that. He loves me, and I love him too.”My father gave a short, cruel laugh. “Love?” he scoffed, shaking his head. “There is no love in our world, Anya. You’ll see soon enough.”The words hit me like a slap. I didn’t understand what he meant, but the look in his eyes told me he believed it completely.He waved his hand toward the door, dismissing me like one of his employees. “Go back down. Your guests are waiting.”I walked out, my chest tight and my m

CHAPTER 2

Anya’s POVI turned sharply, my phone nearly slipping from my hand. Kennedy stood a few feet away, his jaw clenched, eyes bloodshot. His expensive suit was slightly rumpled, and the smell of alcohol hit me before he even moved closer. His smile—if it could be called that—was sharp and cruel.“It’s none of your business,” I said, though my voice trembled a little.He took a step forward. “It is my business,” he said, his tone low and dangerous. “You’re my fiancée now. Or did you forget that already?”Before I could respond, he grabbed my wrist hard. His fingers dug into my skin, and I winced. “Let go,” I snapped, trying to pull away, but he didn’t.“Forget whoever it is,” he hissed. “You belong to me now.”I shook my head, my voice rising. “I don’t belong to anyone!”That made him angrier. His grip tightened, and in one fast movement, he shoved me back against the wall. The sound echoed, and I gasped as pain shot through my shoulder. His face was inches from mine now, his breath reekin

CHAPTER 3

Anya’s POVFive years later.I stared at my reflection in the mirror for a long time, not really recognizing the woman staring back at me. My hair was the same soft brown it had always been, just duller now. My face looked older, not by much, but enough that I could see the difference. The sadness in my eyes was deeper, heavier, like it had settled there and refused to leave. I ran my fingers down my cheek, tracing the faint line near my temple—one of the many reminders of my mistakes.I let my gaze fall lower, to the marks on my body. Some were faint, fading scars that told quiet stories of pain. Others were new—red, purple, angry-looking. A bruise on my shoulder, a cut on my arm, the ugly mark on my side. My heart tightened as I looked at them. They were proof of what my life had become. Proof of what love had turned into.Kennedy Davenport. My husband. My nightmare.We had been married for four years, but every single day felt like a punishment I couldn’t escape. To the world, Kenn

CHAPTER 4

Anya’s POVHe looked right through me, like I was invisible. Like I was nothing but air to him.My stomach twisted painfully. The man who had broken me five years ago—the man I once thought I’d spend forever with—was standing right there. And now he wasn’t just anyone. He was Orion Nikandros, the billionaire who’d come to save my husband’s company.The moment he stepped into the boardroom, the air shifted. It grew tense, thick enough to choke on. Everyone seemed to sit up a little straighter, like his presence demanded it. He moved with quiet confidence, every step measured, controlled. He wasn’t the same man I’d known back then—the one who used to kiss my forehead and whisper that he loved. No, this version of him was colder. Harder. Powerful in a way that scared me a little.He wore a dark suit that probably cost more than my car. The fabric clung perfectly to his tall frame, every button in place, his black hair neatly slicked back. His jaw looked sharper now, his face older, more

CHAPTER 5

Orion’s POVI walked out of the boardroom with a smile that felt cold in my face. It was small, not for show—just the kind of smile someone gets when a plan is working. I was closer now. Closer to the company, closer to the power I wanted, and closer to the woman who had broken me. That thought made the smile sharper.The lobby smelled like leather and lemon polish. My steps sounded loud on the marble. People looked up, then looked away. I didn’t hurry. I liked the slow walk, the way time stretched between the table and the car. Kennedy’s voice still rang in the room somewhere, thin and nervous. He’d given them a speech about troubles and hope. He didn’t know how small he looked.Outside, the city air hit me—cool and a little sweet from the last of the evening sun. I opened the car and slid into the back seat. The leather was warm from the sun and the driver’s jacket left a faint smell of cigarette that I didn’t like, but I didn’t say anything. I needed a minute.I watched the buildin
