Samani’s words and my mother’s letters filled my head, bringing a new plan to life. If I became queen of Northwood, I would have a lycan king and an army behind me.

The day Jordan Gill's mistress, Caroline Sutton, shows up at her door demanding to take her place is the day Tabitha Rhodes finally learns the truth—Jordan, her childhood sweetheart and husband of three years, has been cheating on her.

Rage twisted his features into something ugly and feral. Scarlet noticed...and smiled. “Oh,” she said softly, deliberately turning her wrist so the jade caught the light. “This?”

“This is the future that will come to pass if you refuse.” Catherine’s eyes widened as a blade pierced Silas’s chest, and she shot out of bed, her eyes looking around the strange room. It was heavily decorated with golds and reds, reminding her of her new royal status. A hand covered her heart, and she gasped for air, her skin feeling slimy from sweat. She felt tricked, but still sat there with the images of her husbands dying in her head. Her husbands. She was the Tatiana, the Queen of Queens. Catherine. Her jaw clenched with determination, but she startled when the door opened and her three husbands stood there with beautiful flowers in their hands.

“Like I never existed. Like we were never anything.” Elena walked closer, her hand softly squeezing Valeria's. “He tried to break you, Val. Publicly humiliated you. But look where you are now. You have your own empire. You own legacy. ” Valeria smiled bitterly. “And yet the thought of standing in the same room with him makes me want to vanish.” Elena took her hand. “You’re not the same woman he left behind. You’ve got power now. You'll walk into that gala with your head high and your heels higher and show him what he lost.”

“Green isn’t a good colour on you, honey. But maybe that’s because it’s your natural tint, and like everything you were born with reeks of poverty and filth.” “You weren’t wealthy before you got married to Noah!” Wendy raised her voice. “But I am now!” Natalia reported. “Without him, you’re nothing. How are you able to get so much and still look plain?” Wendy said. “Says the one who bagged a daughter with a failed relationship and a ruined life.

And in her place, I became a woman he’d wish he’d never underestimated. I didn’t slam the door. That would’ve given him too much satisfaction—proof that he still had power over me.
