CHAPTER 1: STRANGER-DANGER.

CINNAMON:Three years.Three years of late nights, brutal deadlines, and campaigns that saved the company's ass more times than I could count. Today, all of it would finally mean something.I smoothed my hands over the navy blazer I'd splurged on last month. Tailored, professional. It was perfect for claiming what I'd earned. My reflection in the apartment window looked ready. Confident. A woman who'd already won.The promotion was mine.I grabbed my bag and bolted out the door, heels clicking against the pavement as I speed-walked toward the junction. The staff bus always left at 7:45 sharp, and I'd rather chew glass than miss it today of all days.The bus rumbled into view just as I rounded the corner, brake lights glowing red."Wait!" I broke into a jog, waving my arm like a lunatic.The door hissed open. Thank God.I reached for the handle, ready to haul myself up and collided with a wall of muscle and expensive cologne.A man stood at the door, one hand already gripping the rail

CHAPTER 2: IRREPLACEABLE.

DANTE:This was a mistake.I knew it the second Tate pitched the idea about going undercover, experiencing the "authentic employee journey," understanding the company from the ground up before implementing changes.Idiotic.I didn't care about process. I cared about results. Numbers. Growth. Exponential profit that would cement my name at the top of every business magazine in the country and shove it directly in my stepfather's smug face.But Tate insisted. "You need to see what you're working with, Dante. You can't fix what you don't understand."So I rode the staff bus like some corporate tourist. Used the general elevator. Walked through the building without an assistant clearing the path ahead of me. All the mundane indignities regular people endured daily.That wasn't even the worst part.The worst part was her.That barely-five-foot menace with raven hair and a death wish. She'd looked at me like I was an inconvenience, something to be shoved aside and forgotten. No deference. N

CHAPTER 3: BATTLELINE HAS BEEN DRAWN.

DANTE:The next day, the office felt different.Employees avoided eye contact when I walked past. Conversations died mid-sentence. Even the executives moved carefully, speaking in measured tones, correcting themselves before I had to.Fear.Good. I'd rather be feared than loved. Fear kept people sharp. Kept them obedient.I was halfway through a meeting with the finance team when Martin knocked."Sir, I need a moment."I waved him in. "Make it quick."He hesitated, glancing at the others in the room. "Privately, if possible."I dismissed the team, then leaned back in my chair. "What is it?"Martin set a folder on my desk. "The Meadowbrook project. It's our next major acquisition. It's a land development for a luxury resort. The investors are traditional, family-oriented. They only work with people they trust.""And?""The land is in Ms. Wealth's hometown."I went still.Martin continued, oblivious. "She knows the area. Knows the people. She's the only one who can navigate the local po

CHAPTER 4: THE MEETING.

CINNAMON:I didn't even have time to properly wallow.One day. I'd been fired for exactly one day before Mr. Martin called.I was still in my pajamas, surrounded by crumpled tissues and half-eaten takeout, researching employment lawyers who specialized in wrongful termination cases. Three years of my life couldn't just be erased because some spoiled CEO had a tantrum over spilled coffee. I'd earned that promotion. Earned my place in that company. If Dante Moretti thought he could toss me aside without consequences, he had another thing coming.Then my phone buzzed.Mr. Martin's name flashed across the screen.I almost didn't answer. But curiosity and a sliver of desperate hope made me pick up."Ms. Wealth, I hope I'm not disturbing you.""That depends on why you're calling."He cleared his throat. "Mr. Moretti would like to discuss reinstating your position."I sat up straighter. "Reinstating?""Yes. Temporarily. For the Meadowbrook project specifically."And just like that, the hope
