How strange that the world could look so normal, so beautiful, on a day that felt anything but. The Blackwood estate appeared suddenly around a bend in the road,a sprawling modern structure of glass and stone perched on a cliff overlooking the Atlantic. Unlike the traditional mansions that dominated this stretch of coastline, this building made no attempt to blend with its surroundings. It stood in deliberate contrast to the natural landscape, as if asserting its dominance over even the ancient rock and restless sea. Much like its owner, I thought.

It was a huge private estate with a sign that read “Blackwood Manor”, Westchester County. It was a lone mansion situated in the hills and surrounded by an array of forest stretching forever.

The first thing I noticed was the silence. It wasn’t the peaceful kind. No. This one was suffocating, heavy, eerie like the walls themselves were holding their breath.

THE WRONG VOW (MISTAKENLY MARRIED TO THE RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE) CHAPTER 9: THE FIRST DAUGHTER A deafening clap of thunder echoed across the city.

The mansion had burned to ashes fifteen years ago. Or so everyone believed. Ethan sat beside him. "Sir... should we call for backup?"

I didn't look back at Ethan or Caleb as the frosted glass doors closed, sealing me in with the most unpredictable of the three brothers. The drive to the Blackwood estate was a lesson in suffocating silence. Asher handled the heavy black SUV with an aggressive, effortless control, his large hands gripping the steering wheel while his eyes remained fixed on the road. I stared out the window, watching the glittering skyscrapers of the city fade into sprawling, tree-lined suburban roads, and eventually, into a private, heavily guarded forest lane. When the iron gates opened, the estate loomed ahead like a modern fortress. It was a massive structure of dark stone,

POV: Maya The Blackwood estate sat hidden in the mountains, three hours north of Blackstone. The road twisted through dense forest until suddenly the trees parted to reveal a gothic mansion that looked like it belonged in a Victorian horror novel. Gray stone walls covered in ivy. Tall windows with heavy curtains. Turrets that reached toward the cloudy sky like accusing fingers. The place radiated old money and older secrets. "This is where your mother grew up?" Jaxon asked from the driver's seat.

As they drove, Marcus couldn't help but glance at Emilia, wondering who she was. *** The car wound its way up the winding driveway, lined with towering trees and meticulously manicured hedges, until it finally arrived at the grand entrance of the Blackwood family's estate. The estate, named Ravenswood Manor, was a sprawling complex that spanned hundreds of hectares, a testament to the family's wealth and influence. As the car passed through the gates, the unconscious Emilia remained still, unaware of the impressive surroundings. The driveway led to a massive courtyard, surrounded by various structures, including stables, guest houses, and staff quarters.

Adrian said as we headed to the car. "No," I said firmly. "We're doing this." The drive to the Blackwood estate took thirty minutes. With each mile, my stomach twisted tighter. Isabella slept peacefully in her car seat, unaware that we were driving towards what might be the worst night of my life. The Blackwood mansion has become was even more impressive than I had left it.

The Weight of a Name The Blackwood estate stood far from the noise of the city, surrounded by tall trees and iron gates that spoke of wealth built over decades.
