The Invisible Wife

Kael’s POVThe silence in the Vance estate didn’t just fill the rooms; it weighed down on them.I sat on the edge of the velvet sofa in the main parlor, holding a teacup that had gone cold hours ago. Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows, the icy autumn rain swept off Lake Zurich, smearing the lights of the city into blurry, fading streaks. It was midnight. The grandfather clock in the foyer clocked twelve slow, heavy beats, each one vibrating right through my ribs.Three years ago today, I signed my name on a piece of paper and became the secret wife of Banjo Vance.To the rest of Switzerland and the global financial media Banjo was the untouched king of high finance, a striking, ruthless billionaire who ruled Vance Enterprises with an iron hand. To them, I was just a ghost, an inconvenient rumor, or worse; a shameless gold-digger who somehow trapped him into a legal arrangement.Nobody knew the real terms. Nobody knew why I was truly in this house, or the weight of the secret I carri

Public Humiliation

Kael’s POVThe Badrutt Grand Ballroom in Zurich was blinding. Crystal chandeliers hung low from the gilded ceiling, casting sharp, glittery light over the sea of high-society elites, foreign diplomats, and corporate titans. The air was thick with the scent of expensive champagne, heavy velvet, and suffocating hypocrisy.I stood near the entrance, smoothing down the fabric of my simple midnight-blue silk dress. It was elegant, but understated far too modest for an event where women wore fortunes around their necks."Table 24, ma'am," the usher said, barely glancing at me as he pointed toward the darkest corner of the room, right next to the kitchen doors.Table 24.The peripheral table reserved for minor press, forgotten donors, and unwanted guests.I didn't argue. I walked calmly across the polished hardwood, feeling the subtle prickle of eyes on my back. I could hear the hushed whispers rippling through the crowd like dry leaves in the wind."Is that her? Banjo Vance’s hidden wife?"

The Fragile Princess

Kael’s POVI held Banjo’s shock-filled gaze without letting a single emotion show on my face. My sapphire eyes remained as cold and clear as ice."I didn't do anything, Banjo," I said softly, keeping my tone completely even. "If your legal team failed to secure land that didn't belong to you in the first place, that sounds like a problem with your business."Banjo stepped closer, his broad chest almost brushing against my shoulder. The phone was still gripped tightly in his long fingers, his knuckles pale. "Don't play word games with me, Merinda. That land was supposed to be processed by morning. Tahlia’s family already has architects scheduled to break ground""Banjo!"A high, breathless voice cut through the dim corridor.Tahlia stood at the end of the hallway, holding the heavy crimson skirt of the matriarch gown in one hand. She looked tiny against the massive archway, her delicate honey-blonde hair framing a face that was pale, smooth, and utterly defenseless. Her doe-like hazel

Whispers In The Hallway

Kael’s POVThe grand hall fell into complete, suffocating silence. The name Kael Banking Syndicate hung in the air like an absolute death sentence to anyone in European finance.Banjo’s face froze. The murderous rage in his amber eyes instantly gave way to a cold, creeping confusion. "The Kael Syndicate? That’s impossible. They don't intervene in domestic corporate accounts unless"I didn't stay to hear the rest of his sentence.While Banjo stood paralyzed, still holding Tahlia in his arms as reporters scrambled to digest the news, I quietly turned around. I slipped past the shocked onlookers, stepped out into the freezing alpine night, and got into the back of the waiting estate car.An hour later, I was back in the warm, silent isolation of the Vance chalet in St. Moritz.The fire in the stone fireplace crackled softly, casting long, orange shadows across the high wood beamed ceiling. I sat on the plush sofa, wrapped in a thick wool blanket, staring blankly into the flames. My feet
