The bread knife stuck in Jon doe's chest had an unusual pattern, I grabbed a camera from the nearest person and clicked a few pictures of the design "Email them to me." I said as I was handing the camera back to them. It looked ancient and rare, not the usual bread knives you'd find at our local stores here in Seattle. I looked up to find a detective watching my every move, it seemed that his one side of the face looked sunken in, similarly, you only see this in people who don't have teeth, which prompted me to look into his mouth, to find that all of his teeth had been pulled out. I sighed loudly and said, "well, here goes our identification route of checking dental records, this body was left in the hopes that no identification will be made!" Craning my neck to have a look at the coroner who had just arrived on the scene, I recalled working with her once before on another case when I first started as a rookie, Dr. Leslie Adams is an expert in her field and one of the most professional and efficient woman. She looked down at me and stated "Detective Rush you do know that the body you are looking at has been dead for more than 3 days, and also looks as if it was stored in a body freezer before being planted at this scene." I shook my head and realized that this is getting more intense by the second, "I hadn't realized so Doc, that's the reason we have you here, to help me solve the mystery "- I said whilst walking up to her, I held out my hand and gave her hand a firm handshake.

Chapter 1 PROLOGUE

It all started in the summer of 2018, with the mysterious disappearance of the two wealthiest men in Seattle.

As written by Seattle Daily, "An unidentified body was found in the apartment of the richest most eligible bachelors in Seattle, The Hudson brothers who at this point are presumed the main suspects in this investigation whose whereabouts are currently unknown.."

The blonde beauty sipped on her morning coffee while reading Seattle Daily, Downing the rest of her liquid drug in one huge gulp, she tied up her long blonde curls into a bun at the top of her head while sighing, two missing billionaires to find and a murder case to solve, just another day at the office.

It has been exactly 24 hours since Grayson and James Hudson have been missing and a dead body has been found in their penthouse. The circumstances around their suspicious sudden disappearance make it even more of a challenge to work on finding their spoiled asses, keeping all information on the down-low has been the biggest challenge thus far. The media are like hungry lions waiting to pounce on any small piece of information.

"Detective Rush, I'd like to have a word with you in my office" The Captain of the Seattle police department had been leaning on the side of my desk while giving me an indescribable look. I gave him a sharp nod and closed up my files which contain all of Hudson's information.

I knocked lightly on the door, making my presence known before stepping in through the semi-opened wooden door. The atmosphere of the office was tense and sat in the office was Captain Braugher along with Lieutenant Jackson. I greeted both of them, "Please have a seat, Jessica" said the Captain in an anxious voice, hearing the tone of his voice had me sitting faster than a blink of an eye.

I directed my attention to the huge whiteboard on the far left wall off the office and on it were pictures of the dead body in the Hudson brothers' apartment, along with pictures of the Hudson men and their staff. Those who were with the Hudson men last before their disappearance were circled blue which meant they will be called in first for questioning and they would be monitored on our radar 24/7, actually everyone who has ever associated themselves with the Hudson men in the last two weeks before their sudden disappearances is on our suspect list.

Everyone is considered a suspect until proven otherwise.

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.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

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.
