Chapter 1 ONE

LUNETHI stood outside the presidential suite, my stomach coiled into knots. Some part of me already knew—my fiancé and my stepsister were tangled together behind that door. But knowing and seeing were two very different things.With each step closer, I prayed I was wrong. That this life would be different. The cruel previous life was nothing more than a nightmare. But then—moans. Breathless, shameless cries. The kind that left no room for doubt.Nothing changed even if I was reborn.I swallowed hard, forcing down the fury swelling in my throat. Anger burned hottest, so fierce it threatened to spill over as tears. My gaze swept the gilded hallway, the opulence now a cruel joke.Kellan Moreaux had insisted we marry here, at the historic Carlisle Hotel. "A love as timeless as these walls," he’d said.Had he been laughing at me the whole time?Our love was timeless—yet he dared betray me on our wedding day? I swiped at my cheeks, smearing away the tears. No. I wouldn’t cry over a man like

Chapter 2 TWO

LUNETHA deafening gasp sucked all the oxygen from the room. The day had already been a scandal, but this? This was nuclear.Every eye locked onto Drexon with bated breath. Even Tema's venomous tongue stilled—because everyone knew the truth. Drexon Moreaux didn't just hold power; he was the silent storm that could dismantle empires with a glance.When those piercing eyes finally landed on me, time stuttered. His expression gave nothing away—just an impenetrable mask that made my pulse riot.I stepped forward before courage failed me, forcing our gazes to collide like a challenge."Luneth Vaelcrest." My name came out steadier than my thrashing heartbeat."Your nephew's would-be bride." A deliberate pause. "Until I found him fucking my sister—" I flicked a glance at Melissa, savoring how she flinched when I sneered, "Stepsister."Was that—? Yes. The faintest quirk at the corner of his mouth. Approval.I advanced another step, my bridal silk whispering over the marble."The papers already

Chapter 3 THREE

LUNETHNo one defied Drexon—not when he'd declared in that steel-edged voice that our wedding would proceed immediately in the same venue.What about Kellan afterward? It was his own concern.The wedding gown's lace scratched against my skin as I adjusted the ill-fitting bodice. What had possessed me to choose something so ornate? So bridal? The ivory satin suddenly felt like a costume for a role I'd never wanted to play.We bypassed all tradition—no procession, no music, no trembling father giving away the bride. Just Drexon's large hand at the small of my back, steering us both down the aisle with the efficiency of a business merger.The priest's nervous glance toward the Moreaux matriarch spoke volumes; he only began when she gave a barely perceptible nod."...to have and to hold from this day forward..."My attention drifted during the vows. Drexon's profile was carved marble—not a single glance my way, not even when the priest stumbled over his words.This wasn't how marriages wer

Chapter 4 FOUR

DREXONAs I watched my new bride stride toward our suite—chin high, that ridiculous wedding dress trailing behind her—I caught myself admiring the way she owned every damn step.Luneth wasn’t just brave; she was a goddamn force of nature.I’d shown up today out of familial obligation, expecting nothing more than an open bar and the satisfaction of watching my fool nephew tie himself to that social-climbing stepsister of hers.Instead, I got a wife who looked at me like I was the answer to a question she hadn’t even asked aloud.The door to our suite stood ajar when I arrived. Melissa’s shrill voice carried into the hallway, and my protective instincts flared—until I heard Luneth’s response."Aunt Luneth," she corrected, her voice dripping with the kind of condescension that would make a nun reconsider her life choices.A smirk tugged at my lips. Christ, she was magnificent.I leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed. The contrast between the rooms wasn’t lost on me—while Kellan’s sui

Chapter 5 FIVE

DREXON.The Laurent Hotel was one of my properties—every detail from the Egyptian cotton sheets to the heated marble floors had been selected to meet my exacting standards. Yet as Luneth disappeared into the bathroom, I found myself second-guessing whether the jasmine-scented bath oils I’d mandated would be to her taste.A ridiculous thought. Since when did I care about a woman's preference?The water shut off abruptly. "Drexon?" Her voice carried an edge—not frustration, but something far more intriguing: flustered pride.I was at the door in two strides. "Problem?""This damn dress." A huff. "The laces won't— I can't reach—" She exhaled sharply. "Could you call a maid to help?"A slow smirk curved my lips. "You have a husband right here, sweetheart." The endearment slipped out before I could stop it.Her sharp inhale when I stepped closer was more satisfying than any corporate takeover. My fingers brushed against the delicate skin of her back as I worked the intricate laces, feeling

Chapter 6 THE FAVOUR BEFORE A FEAST

I was in a hurry to leave the hotel for wherever Drexon called home, but the Moreaux family had more plans for us than I could imagine. Things had not been like this in the past when I had married Kellan. After the wedding, we were sent home under the watchful eyes of Tema, who nagged me about everything."Mom said you and that girl should come down for breakfast." I pretended to lie asleep on the bed with my back to the door as I listened to the conversation between Tema and Drexon. "Your wife", she corrected herself, and even though I can't see Drexon's face, I wonder what kind of look he could have given her to have her change her words so easily. When I chose to be his wife, I knew that there would be persecution from Tema and her sister-in-laws, and to be honest, I was ready for that, but I did not want to forge my way into battle so early in the relationship."Why do we need to have breakfast?" Drexon's voice was smooth and commanded more authority than Tema's whiny voice."I do

Chapter 7 BREAKFAST WITH THE ENEMY

LUNETHWe walk down the stairs and enter a banquet hall. The Moreaux had turned the hall into a dining hall with a long table across and chairs scattered opposite each other. I glance at the seating arrangement, and I feel my stomach tighten; I remember this all too well, the end of that table and everything wrong with it.We walk to the head where the matarich is seated. "Drexon, you came," the woman said with a smug smile on her face. She beckons to us, and we stand before her. She inspects us like some goods she was about to purchase, and I see the question lingering on her lips even though she seems careful not to say anything. She nods her head without a word and motions that we go to sit. "We can begin breakfast now."It was then that I realised they had all been waiting for Drexon to show up. Drexon strolls casually to where he was supposed to sit. The seat was clear, and there was no arguing about it. Kellan was seated right next to him, with Kellan's father on the other side o

Chapter 8 COST OF A SEAT

DREXONI looked at the head of the table where my mom was sitting. I knew that her asking for a honeymoon from us was not only to keep up with public appearances. This was somehow the cost of her agreeing to seat his wife at the head of the table when everyone around had said no to it.I turn my face slightly so it can capture Luneth sitting by my side, and I can see that she thinks it's a horrible idea; she does not like it. I don't think I like it as well, but it is not a bad idea. I can use this opportunity to find out what she really wants from marrying me before letting her near my children. I need to know if her fuel for revenge is something I can put to great use."We will go," I announced, and Luneth let out a whimpered sound. She does not like it at all."Good," Mom said, clapping her hands as if she had won. "We have had two marriages in one day; we need to make sure that no rumours spread around about the circumstances of this," she adds, and then the table falls silent. Eve

Chapter 9 THE ELEPHANT IN THE CABIN

LUNETHThe trip to the island that the Moreaux had prepared for us was silent. It was funny how my life had changed so drastically. When I married Kellan in my past life, the Moreaux matriarch hadn't been concerned with our wedding; she even barely smiled. Seeing that she gave us both an opportunity for a honeymoon, it shows just how much she favoured Drexon.We sit opposite each other in the silent plane, and aside from the bodyguards littered away from us, I am quite glad that we are alone. I had thought that Kellan and Melissa would be on this trip as well; I would not have been able to stand it for the entire five hours we would be travelling."You can get some rest; I will wake you when we land," Drexon said, looking up briefly from the tablet he had been holding. He had plunged himself into work immediately we got on the plane, and something about the sight made me want to continue stealing glances from him as we flew."I am fine," I say in a dismissive voice. "You don't look lik

Chapter 10 A MYSTERY ROOM

LUNETHThe words linger in the air and I do not know how to respond to that. My hands shake a bit as I unstrap the seatbelt that had been holding me to the chair."I think I will take you up on that offer and get some rest." I know how it looks to him but I do not mind running away from my problems right now. If I stay there, I might betray myself and start forcing myself to talk, but it seems like he did not want the guards to hear our conversation, even though I was sure that I knew the answer.I was selfish and fished him into a marriage situation with me I knew that I could not be that selfish to deny a man his needs. He was a man with needs after all and I was a woman with needs as well. I was only thinking about these things after the deed had been done.Sometimes my friends had called me old school because I did not see the point of sleeping with someone with whom you did not share soul ties. You had to at least have some kind of affection to be able to stand and watch each othe
