I stood in the center of the Pierre Hotel's grand ballroom, a mute, smiling doll in a Dior dress. My job was to signal stability to investors while my fiancé, Clive Fitzpatrick, looked for any excuse to ignore me. The night of our engagement, the world turned into a different kind of hell. I watched Clive disappear onto the terrace with another woman, his hand possessively on her waist. Distraught and drunk, I stumbled into a dark penthouse suite seeking sanctuary. I woke up the next morning to a gravelly voice and the smell of expensive tobacco. I hadn't slept with my fiancé; I had accidentally spent the night with his uncle, Bruno Fitzpatrick-the man Wall Street called the "executioner." The humiliation was only the beginning. Clive didn't just cheat; he admitted he was only marrying me to steal my family's voting rights so I could "rot" in an apartment while he lived with his mistress. When I tried to protest, my adoptive mother, Claudia, dragged me into a private room and whipped me with a riding crop to remind me of my place. She held up a video of my frail, sick sister, Lucia, making it clear that my total obedience was the only thing keeping Lucia alive. I was a business asset to be traded, used, and beaten into submission. I couldn't understand why everyone I was supposed to trust was so eager to destroy me. Was I really just a mannequin to be discarded once the merger papers were signed? The marks on my back burned, but the ice in my veins was colder. I was done being the victim of a mediocre man and a heartless mother. Then Bruno offered me a way out. At the family dinner, right in front of my cheating fiancé, he proposed a lethal bet: if I could raise the company's stock by ten percent in thirty days, he would give me his board veto-the ultimate power to crush Clive and Claudia forever. If I failed, I would owe him any favor he asked. I looked at the man who had ruined me and the man who wanted to own me, and I realized I had nothing left to lose. I wasn't going to be a doll anymore; I was going to be the one who burned the house down.

Jilted Heiress: Seducing My Fiancé's Ruthless Uncle Chapter 1 No.1

"Good morning, niece-in-law," he said. His voice was gravel and smoke. "You were very enthusiastic last night."

Ivy trembled.

Hours earlier, the world had been a different kind of hell. The stem of the champagne flute felt like it was going to snap between Ivy Wallace's fingers.

She stood in the dead center of the Pierre Hotel's grand ballroom. The crystal chandeliers overhead cast a light that was too bright, too exposing. It made the diamonds around the necks of the women nearby glitter aggressively, like teeth bared in a smile.

Ivy took a sip. The liquid was warm now. It tasted like vinegar and regret.

She could hear them. The whispers. They moved through the room like a draft of cold air, rustling the silk gowns and stiff tuxedos.

Did you see her dress? Last season's Dior.

I heard the Wallace accounts are in the red again.

Poor thing. She doesn't even know where he is.

Ivy knew exactly where he was.

Clive Fitzpatrick stood near the terrace doors. He was looking at his phone, his brow furrowed in that way that usually meant he was annoyed with the stock market or the temperature of his scotch. He was handsome in a conventional, soft way, the kind of handsome that came from three generations of never having to lift anything heavier than a fountain pen.

Ivy took a step forward. Her heels sank slightly into the plush carpet. She needed to be next to him. That was her job. She was the accessory, the mute, smiling doll that signaled stability to the investors.

Then she saw the red dress.

Catrina Bowers slid into the frame like a slash of fresh blood. The dress was cut low, dangerously low for a family charity gala. It was the kind of dress that made people talk, and Catrina lived for the talk. She linked her arm through Clive's.

It was possessive. It was intimate.

Ivy stopped. Her breath hitched in her throat, a physical stumble in her chest.

Clive looked up then. His eyes met Ivy's across the room. There was no warmth in them. No apology. Just a flash of irritation, as if she were a stain on his cuff that he couldn't quite scrub out. He waved his hand, a dismissive flick of the wrist.

Go away.

Catrina saw the gesture. She turned her head, her blonde curls bouncing. She found Ivy in the crowd and smiled. It wasn't a friendly smile. It was a victory lap.

Then they turned together and walked out the terrace doors, disappearing into the night.

Ivy stood there. The room seemed to tilt.

It wasn't just the humiliation. It was the three glasses of champagne she had consumed on an empty stomach. She hadn't eaten since yesterday. Claudia, her adoptive mother, had mentioned that the dress was fitting a little snug around the waist. Ivy had taken the hint.

A waiter approached with a tray of hors d'oeuvres. The smell of truffle oil hit Ivy's nose and her stomach rolled violently.

She pushed past him, her shoulder knocking into the tray. A murmur of annoyance followed her, but she didn't care. She needed air. She needed quiet.

She stumbled toward the elevators. The polished brass doors reflected a distorted version of herself. Pale skin. Wide, panicked eyes. A woman on the verge of shattering.

She pressed the button for the penthouse level.

The Wallace family didn't have a suite up there. They were on the eighth floor. But the eighth floor was full of people-her mother, her sister Delsie, the staff. Ivy couldn't handle people. She remembered Clive saying something about the Fitzpatrick family keeping a suite permanently reserved at the top for private meetings.

Clive wasn't there. He was with Catrina. The room would be empty.

The elevator ride made her ears pop. When the doors slid open, the silence of the hallway was heavy, suffocating. The carpet here was thicker. The sconces on the walls were dimmer.

Ivy walked down the corridor, trailing her hand along the textured wallpaper. She counted the doors. One. Two.

The third door was slightly ajar.

A sliver of darkness waited inside.

She pushed it open. The room smelled different than the hallway. It smelled of cedar wood, expensive leather, and the sharp, cold scent of tobacco. It was a masculine smell, overpowering and distinct.

Ivy didn't think. She kicked off her heels, leaving them where they fell on the entryway tile.

She walked into the bedroom. The curtains were drawn tight, blocking out the city lights. It was a cave. A sanctuary.

She collapsed onto the bed. The mattress was firm, unforgiving. She curled into a ball, wrapping her arms around herself, trying to hold the pieces of her dignity together.

The alcohol pulled her down. The room spun slower, then stopped. Her eyelids felt like lead weights.

She drifted.

Sometime later, the bed shifted.

It wasn't a subtle movement. The mattress dipped significantly, as if a heavy weight had settled onto the other side.

Ivy groaned, her mind still wrapped in a fog of champagne. Clive? He must have come back. Maybe he felt guilty. Maybe he realized he couldn't leave his fiancée alone at their engagement celebration.

A hand touched her waist.

It was large. Heavy. The heat radiating from the palm burned through the thin silk of her dress.

Ivy leaned into the touch. She was so starved for affection, for any sign that she wasn't just a business asset, that she didn't question it. She turned over, seeking the warmth.

The hand slid up her ribcage. It was rougher than Clive's hands. Clive had soft, manicured hands. This hand had calluses. It felt dangerous.

A body pressed against hers. Hard muscle. The scent of cedar and tobacco intensified, filling her lungs, drowning her.

Ivy gasped as a mouth covered hers. It wasn't a tentative kiss. It was a claiming. It was hungry and demanding.

Wait, she thought. Her brain fired a warning signal, but it was weak, distant.

The man shifted, his weight pinning her to the mattress. His knee drove between her legs, spreading them with an authority that made her breath catch.

"Don't move," a voice growled against her neck. It was deep, vibrating through her bones.

It wasn't Clive's voice.

But the fear didn't come. Or maybe it did, and it just felt like adrenaline. Ivy was floating, untethered. For the first time all day-for the first time in years-someone wanted her. Not for her name, not for her shares, but for her skin, her breath, her body.

She didn't push him away. She wrapped her legs around him.

It was a free fall. A collision.

The pain was sharp, tearing through the haze of alcohol, but it was followed by a wave of sensation so intense it made her cry out. He didn't stop. He didn't ask if she was okay. He took what he wanted, and Ivy let him, because in that moment, being used felt better than being invisible.

The darkness swallowed them both.

Light.

It was the enemy. It pried Ivy's eyelids open before she was ready.

A sharp, throbbing pain sat behind her eyes. Her mouth tasted like cotton. Her body felt... wrecked. Every muscle ached, a dull soreness that radiated from her core.

She blinked, trying to focus on the ceiling. It wasn't her room. The crown molding was different.

Memory returned in jagged shards. The party. The red dress. The elevator. The dark room.

The man.

Ivy froze. She stopped breathing.

She turned her head slowly on the pillow, terrified of what she would find.

The man next to her was asleep. He was lying on his back, one arm thrown over his eyes. The sheet had slipped down to his waist, revealing a chest that looked like it was carved out of marble-broad, tanned, and scarred.

Ivy's gaze traveled up to his face.

Strong jawline, covered in the shadow of morning stubble. High cheekbones. A nose that had been broken once, maybe twice.

It wasn't Clive.

Ivy's heart hammered against her ribs like a trapped bird. She knew this face. Everyone in New York knew this face. It was on the cover of Forbes. It was in the nightmares of Wall Street traders.

Bruno Fitzpatrick.

Clive's uncle. The black sheep. The family's executioner.

Panic, cold and liquid, flooded her veins. She had slept with her fiancé's uncle. The night of her engagement party.

This wasn't a mistake. This was a death sentence. If Claudia found out... if the family found out...

Ivy scrambled backward, the sheets tangling around her legs. She needed to leave. Now. Before he woke up.

She reached for the edge of the mattress, her foot searching for the floor.

A hand shot out.

It wrapped around her wrist with the speed of a striking snake. The grip was iron-clad. Painful.

Ivy gasped, freezing in place.

Slowly, the man on the bed lowered his arm from his face.

He opened his eyes.

They were black. Pitch black. There was no sleep in them. No confusion. He looked like he had been awake for hours, watching her, waiting for her to move.

Bruno Fitzpatrick pulled himself up. The muscles in his shoulders flexed as he leaned back against the headboard. He looked at Ivy. He didn't look at her face. He looked at her naked shoulders, the marks on her neck, the terror in her eyes.

A slow, cruel smile spread across his lips.

My husband, the ruthless Don of the Parks family, made his choice. When his mistress burst in screaming that her son was sick, Jackson didn't hesitate. He left me—his wife who had just been poisoned—pinned against the wall to die, rushing to comfort a child who wasn't even his blood. That night, "Elena Parks" died in a fiery car crash. I spent years rebuilding myself in France, hidden by Hamilton Nixon, a man who loved me in the shadows. I finally found peace. I finally felt free. But Jackson found out the truth. He discovered the boy was another man's son and that his mistress had been drugging him. Instead of letting me go, his grief turned into a terrifying obsession. He hunted me down, kidnapped me, and dragged me back to the estate that had been my prison. I woke up tied to our marriage bed with silk ribbons. "I'm building a garden," he whispered maniacally, stroking my hair as I struggled against the bonds. "Just like you wanted. We're going to be happy." He thought kidnapping was a grand romantic gesture. He thought he could erase the abuse with a fresh coat of paint and forced proximity. But he underestimated me. And he underestimated Hamilton. After a violent rescue, I rose from the ashes not as his wife, but as a titan of industry. Six months later, Jackson stormed the stage at my global summit. He knelt before me on live television, holding a ten-carat pink diamond, thinking he could buy my forgiveness. "I'm ready to take you back," he announced to the world. I looked at the man who had destroyed me, then at Hamilton, the man who had saved me. I grabbed Hamilton's lapels and kissed him in front of millions. "There is no 'us', Jackson," I told him into the microphone, watching his world shatter. "You are just haunting a graveyard."

The wooden box hidden in the back of my husband's desk wasn't a gift for me. Inside sat a diamond ring far more expensive than my own, engraved with a single name: *Else*. Else was the woman Derek swore was just his sister. That night, feigning sleep, I heard him laughing on the phone with his best friend. "Don't worry," Derek said, his voice cold and bored. "The bet is almost over. She was just a placeholder until Else came back. Once the assets are transferred, we auction her off to the highest bidder." My world shattered in a heartbeat. I wasn't his wife; I was an asset. A warm body he planned to sell like used furniture. But the betrayal didn't stop at infidelity. When Else returned, she caused a car crash that left me bleeding out on a gurney. I grabbed Derek’s hand, screaming for him to save our unborn baby. He didn't even look at me. He looked at the doctor and pointed at Else. "Save her," he commanded. "I don't care about the baby." I woke up in a sterile room, childless and hollow, only to discover the final horror: they were dosing me with an "Obedience Serum" to ensure I wouldn't fight back during the sale. Derek thought I was broken. He thought I was stupid enough to board the plane he booked, straight into the hands of his buyers. But when his security team stormed the aircraft, my seat was empty. By the time he realized I was gone, I was already thousands of miles away in Paris, watching his empire burn to the ground from a safe distance. He wanted to sell a victim. Instead, he unleashed a survivor.

I stood at my mother’s open grave in the freezing rain, my heels sinking into the mud. The space beside me was empty. My husband, Hilliard Holloway, had promised to cherish me in bad times, but apparently, burying my mother didn't fit into his busy schedule. While the priest’s voice droned on, a news alert lit up my phone. It was a livestream of the Metropolitan Charity Gala. There was Hilliard, looking impeccable in a custom tuxedo, with his ex-girlfriend Charla English draped over his arm. The headline read: "Holloway & English: A Power Couple Reunited?" When he finally returned to our penthouse at 2 AM, he didn't come alone—he brought Charla with him. He claimed she’d had a "medical emergency" at the gala and couldn't be left alone. I found a Tiffany diamond necklace on our coffee table meant for her birthday, and a smudge of her signature red lipstick on his collar. When I confronted him, he simply told me to stop being "hysterical" and "acting like a child." He had no idea I was seven months pregnant with his child. He thought so little of my grief that he didn't even bother to craft a convincing lie, laughing with his mistress in our home while I sat in the dark with a shattered heart and a secret life growing inside me. "He doesn't deserve us," I whispered to the darkness. I didn't scream or beg. I simply left a folder on his desk containing signed divorce papers and a forged medical report for a terminated pregnancy. I disappeared into the night, letting him believe he had successfully killed his own legacy through his neglect. Five years later, Hilliard walked into "The Vault," the city's most exclusive underground auction, looking for a broker to manage his estate. He didn't recognize me behind my Venetian mask, but he couldn't ignore the neon pink graffiti on his armored Maybach that read "DEADBEAT." He had no clue that the three brilliant triplets currently hacking his security system were the very children he thought had been erased years ago. This time, I wasn't just a wife in the way; I was the one holding all the cards.

I lay paralyzed on stiff white sheets, a prisoner in my own skin, listening to the rain lash against the window like nails on a coffin. My father, Elmore Franco, didn't even look at my face as he checked his clipboard. He just listened to the steady, monotonous beep of the heart monitor-the only thing proving I was still alive. Without a hint of remorse, he pulled a pen from his pocket and signed the Do Not Resuscitate order. My stepmother, Ophelia, stepped out from behind him, wearing my favorite pearl necklace and smelling of cloying perfume. She leaned close to my ear to whisper the truth that turned my blood to ice. "It was the tea, darling. Just like your mother. A slow, tasteless poison." She chuckled as she revealed that my fiancé, Bryce, had a two-year-old son with my sister, Daniela. My inheritance had been funding their secret life for years, and now that the money was secure, I was an inconvenience they were finally scrubbing away. As my father yanked the power cord from the wall, the beeping died, and the darkness swallowed me whole. I was being murdered by my own flesh and blood, used as a bank account until I was no longer needed. I died in that sterile room, drowning in the realization that every person I ever loved was a monster who had been waiting for me to take my last breath. Then, I gasped. I woke up in a luxury hotel suite surrounded by silk sheets, five years in the past-the very morning of my wedding. Next to me lay Basile Delgado, the "Wolf of Wall Street" and my family's most dangerous enemy. In my first life, I ran from this room in a panic and lost everything. This time, I looked at the man who would eventually destroy my father's empire and decided to join him. "I'm not leaving, Basile. Marry me. Right now. Today."

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.
