Deus Ex

My husband brought home another lover! After years of being married to Xavier Lockwood hoping that someday he would love me, I was beyond shocked to see him bringing another woman into our home. "She's just a friend." He claimed, but I knew better. I could tell they did dirty things behind my back. Things my husband never agreed to do with me. I then realised, I was only a placeholder for his true lover. And now that she was here, I meant nothing to him anymore. I finally took charge of my own life, vowing to never beg for his affection. But then, my Ex-husband comes knocking again, threatening to tear down the world I'd built for myself. Would he succeed? Would I easily let him in because of the feelings I once habored for him? Or would I do everything within my power to protect myself from him?

She’s found the truth about the accident, she’s found a new king in Dante Sterling, and she’s found a way to make Cassian crawl.
