Chapter 1

Seraphina’s POVAfter bleeding for six hours in the emergency room because of the abortion my husband forced me to have, the first thing I saw when I woke up was his engagement announcement.The woman in Silas Wolfe’s arms was Evelyn Hart, his first love. The woman who abandoned him ten years ago and suddenly returned six months ago.My fingers tightened around the thin hospital blanket instantly as another sharp pain spread through my lower abdomen.On the television hanging across the hospital room, reporters surrounded Silas and Evelyn excitedly while cameras flashed endlessly around them.“Mr. Wolfe! Are the pregnancy rumors true?”Evelyn lowered her head shyly and touched her stomach.Silas immediately wrapped an arm around her waist protectively.That tiny movement pierced through my chest harder than the abortion pain.The baby I had just killed for Silas suddenly felt like the cruelest joke in the world.Because just yesterday, Silas sat beside my hospital bed holding my face g

Chapter 2

Seraphina’s POVI met Silas Wolfe when I was seventeen.Back then, I was still living in Saint Mary’s orphanage.It was raining heavily that night and the orphanage director locked me outside as punishment for fighting older boys who stole food from a little girl.I sat trembling near the gates soaked from head to toe wishing I could turn eighteen quickly and leave that hell forever when a black luxury car suddenly stopped in front of me.The rear window slowly rolled down and for the first time, I saw Silas Wolfe.He was twenty-one then. I still remembered thinking he was the most handsome man I had ever seen.He stared at me silently for a very long time before suddenly opening the car door himself.Back then, his eyes were warm and gentle, almost heartbreaking.“What’s your name?” he asked quietly.“Seraphina.”He looked at me strangely after hearing my answer. Then he removed his expensive coat and wrapped it around my freezing body carefully.“Come with me.”That single sentence c

Chapter 3

Seraphina’s POVThe following day I was discharged from the hospital, but Silas didn’t come to pick me up.His assistant did. I wasn’t surprised.Six months ago, I would have sat in the hospital room staring at my phone waiting for his message.Now I simply climbed into the car and looked out the window.The city moved past in a blur. For the first time in ten years, I felt strangely calm.Maybe because there was nothing left to lose. Or maybe because I finally understood the truth.Silas had never loved me.The black gates of the Wolfe mansion slowly opened. The moment I stepped out of the car, laughter drifted from inside the house.Male voices, Silas’s friends. I immediately recognized them.Over the years, I cooked for them, prepared gifts for their birthdays, and stayed up late helping Silas entertain them whenever they visited.Not one of them ever respected me.“…Seriously, Silas, how much longer are you going to keep Seraphina around?” one of them was asking inside.Laughter fo

Chapter 4

Seraphina’s POVI almost didn’t go to the party.The moment I opened the shopping bag and saw the expensive designer dress inside, I wanted to throw it away.But in the end, I wore it. After all, I only had two days left before leaving. There was no point creating unnecessary trouble now.The black dress fit perfectly. Silas always knew my measurements.That thought made me laugh bitterly. For ten years, I mistook familiarity for love.Now I know better.An hour later, Silas and I arrived at the party.The moment we entered the luxurious villa, countless eyes landed on us. Or more specifically, me. The woman everyone knew Silas was preparing to abandon.I ignored the stares and followed him inside. His friends were already gathered around a table near the swimming pool.Laughter filled the air. Expensive liquor bottles covered every surface and seated at the center of it all was Evelyn Hart.She looked beautiful. The moment she saw us, her face lit up.“Seraphina!”She immediately stoo

Chapter 5

Seraphina’s POV“Silas, help me!”Evelyn’s terrified scream echoed through the night.Cold water filled my mouth instantly as I struggled beneath the surface.The moment I resurfaced, coughing violently, I saw dozens of people rushing toward the pool.Their shocked faces blurred before my eyes.Then I saw Silas. He had reached the edge of the pool. For one brief second, our eyes met. Relief flooded through me. Silas was here. Everything would be fine.Then Evelyn screamed again.“Silas!”Tears streamed down her face as she desperately splashed around in the water.“Our baby! Please save our baby!”The relief inside me vanished instantly.I watched Silas’s expression change. Without hesitation, he jumped into the pool.Not toward me but toward Evelyn.My heart stopped as the water swallowed me again. When I surfaced, I forced myself to speak.“Silas…” My voice came out weak. “I can’t swim…”It was true. I never learned.Years ago, Silas promised he would teach me. Just another promise h

Chapter 6

Seraphina’s POVThe cold hit me the moment the guards dragged me outside.My thin hospital gown offered almost no protection against the freezing wind as snow continued falling from the dark sky.Within seconds, icy flakes settled into my hair and on my shoulders while the frozen ground bit painfully into my knees.I was still weak from nearly drowning. My body had barely recovered from the abortion and I had only regained consciousness a few hours ago after spending two days unconscious. Yet none of that seemed to matter.“Chairman Wolfe, this is dangerous!”The doctor rushed outside after us, his face filled with panic as he watched the guards force me onto my knees.“Her body temperature is already unstable. If this continues, she could go into shock.”Chairman Wolfe struck his cane heavily against the ground.“Then perhaps she should have thought about that before trying to harm Evelyn.”The doctor looked horrified. “But she just woke up. She needs treatment.”“I don’t care.” The o

Chapter 7

Seraphina’s POVThe first thing I felt when I woke up was warmth. It wasn't the painful, suffocating heat of a hospital room or the burning ache that had followed me since the abortion.This was the kind of warmth that made me feel safe and relaxed.Slowly, I opened my eyes. Sunlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, bathing the luxurious room in a soft golden glow. Fresh flowers sat on a nearby table and expensive paintings decorated the walls.For a moment, I thought I was dreaming then I felt a hand wrapped tightly around mine.I turned my head to see a man sitting beside the bed. His usually immaculate suit was wrinkled. Dark circles surrounded his eyes and his head had fallen against the chair as though he had been sitting there for a very long time.Even in sleep, he refused to let go of my hand. My chest tightened.“Dad…”The word barely left my lips when his eyes flew open instantly. For a second, he simply stared at me then relief flooded his face.“Princess.” His

Chapter 8

Seraphina’s POVThe moment my father finished speaking, the entire waiting area fell silent. Chairman Wolfe stared at him for several seconds before suddenly laughing.It wasn’t a pleasant laugh. It was the kind of laugh people used when they thought someone was lying.“Your daughter?” Chairman Wolfe repeated mockingly. “And who exactly are you supposed to be?”My father’s expression didn’t change as he replied, “Chairman Vale.”The laughter immediately stopped. For a second, nobody spoke. Then Chairman Wolfe laughed again, this time even harder.“Chairman Vale?” Chairman Wolfe asked mockingly.Even several of his guards exchanged amused looks.One of them muttered under his breath. “As if.”The Wolfe family and the Vale family had operated in the same city for years.Everyone knew the Vale family but nobody had ever seen Chairman Vale. The man rarely appeared publicly and almost never attended social events which was exactly why nobody believed my father.Chairman Wolfe shook his head

Chapter 9

Seraphina’s POVThe drive to the Vale estate was quiet. I sat beside my father in the backseat while the long convoy of black luxury vehicles moved through the city.For the first time in ten years, I wasn’t wondering when Silas would call. I wasn’t checking my phone, I wasn’t waiting for a text message, I wasn’t wondering if he missed me.The realization felt strange.For so many years, Silas Wolfe had been the center of my world. Now, for the first time, he wasn’t.My father suddenly reached over and covered my hand with his.“Are you tired, Princess?”I looked up. The concern in his eyes made my chest tighten.Nobody had looked at me like that in years and the few times Silas looked at me I knew now that he was just imagining Evelyn.I shook my head and smiled, “I’m okay, Dad.”The lie was obvious but my father didn’t say anything. Instead, he simply squeezed my hand gently.“We’re almost home,” he said.I glanced out the window. A few minutes later, the convoy slowed as massive iro

Chapter 10

Silas’s POVThe mansion felt strangely quiet. The moment I walked through the front doors, something felt wrong.For several seconds, I stood there staring at the empty foyer. Usually, by this time of day, Seraphina would already be waiting.Sometimes she would be carrying documents. Sometimes she would have dinner prepared. Sometimes she would simply smile and ask whether I was tired.Today there was nothing. The realization irritated me more than it should have.I loosened my tie and walked further inside. The servants lowered their heads respectfully. None of them spoke.The silence felt uncomfortable.I frowned.“Where is everyone?”The butler hesitated.“Miss Seraphina used to handle most household matters herself.”I froze briefly. Then I continued walking. My mood immediately worsened.For ten years, Seraphina had quietly taken care of everything. I never noticed how much she did until she stopped.The thought annoyed me. She was acting like a child. A few days away from home an
