Chapter 1 Samantha

Chapter 1: Samantha

My name is Samantha Valdez. I was born on October 3, 1330. My parents were good people. I do not know anything about my grandparents because my parents did not talk about them very much. I never questioned my parents about my grandparents. I have a sister named Sara and a brother named Henry. My family is really close, but we have to go through some hard times. I have been in love with a boy named Matthew Romanov. Matthew has a cousin named Nicholas, but Nicholas lived in England. We live in Italy. I want to marry Matthew when I turn eighteen. The black death killed my parents. Sara, Henry, and I went to live with foster parents. Our foster parents' names were George and Sally Wilson. Matthew visits a lot. George and Sally allow Matthew to visit. George and Sally did not have any children. Matthew came to visit me. "Hello Samantha, How are you doing?" Matthew asks. "I am doing good," I answered. "How are you doing?" I ask. "I am doing good. I just miss you," Matthew replied. "I miss you too," I replied. "I got a gift for you," Matthew replied. "What is it?" I ask. Matthew got a beautiful diamond ring out. I could not believe how beautiful the ring was. "Samantha, I love you and I always have. I was wondering when we turn eighteen will you marry me?" Matthew asks. "Yes, I will," I replied happily. Matthew puts the ring on my finger. I was so happy. Matthew and I rush to see Sara and Henry. We told them we were getting married when we turned eighteen years old. Sara and Henry were happy for Matthew and me. The next day I was picking some flowers when I saw a handsome man looking at me. I asked who he was, but he disappeared. I was wondering who that man was, but I try not to worry about it. I did not tell Matthew or anyone else about the man. Matthew was working so he can have enough money when we get married. Sara was hoping she could get married when she was eighteen years old. The Wilson's were trying to find a husband for Sara. They already found a wife for Henry. The woman Henry was going to marry was Claudia Wilson. Claudia was the niece of George and Sally Wilson. Matthew's parents invited me to a party. Matthew's mom got me a dress to wear to the party. Matthew's parents were very rich people. A lot of people came to the party. I saw Nicholas and his girlfriend Crystal. Crystal was very beautiful. Sara was hoping that a boy would ask her to dance, but no one did. I felt bad for my sister. I did tell Sara that she was young and once she was older, she would have a lot of boys chasing after her. Matthew walks me home. I saw the same man looking at us. I did not know what that man wanted. I just ignored him. Matthew kisses me goodnight. I told Sara about the man I saw in the garden. I told her that I think that man is following me, but I did not know why. "Have you told George and Sally?" Sara asks. "No, I do not think they will believe me," I explained. "You need to tell Matthew," Sara suggests.

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."

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.

Today is October 14th, my birthday. I returned to New York after months away, dragging my suitcase through the biting wind, but the VIP pickup zone where my husband’s Maybach usually idled was empty. When I finally let myself into our Upper East Side penthouse, I didn’t find a cake or a "welcome home" banner. Instead, I found my husband, Caden, kneeling on the floor, helping our five-year-old daughter wrap a massive gift for my half-sister, Adalynn. Caden didn’t even look up when I walked in; he was too busy laughing with the girl who had already stolen my father’s legacy and was now moving in on my family. "Auntie Addie is a million times better than Mommy," my daughter Elara chirped, clutching a plush toy Caden had once forbidden me from buying for her. "Mommy is mean," she whispered loudly, while Caden just smirked, calling me a "drill sergeant" before whisking her off to Adalynn’s party without a second glance. Later that night, I saw a video Adalynn posted online where my husband and child laughed while mocking my "sensitive" nature, treating me like an inconvenient ghost in my own home. I had spent five years researching nutrition for Elara’s health and managing every detail of Caden’s empire, only to be discarded the moment I wasn't in the room. How could the man who set his safe combination to my birthday completely forget I even existed? The realization didn't break me; it turned me into ice. I didn't scream or beg for an explanation. I simply walked into the study, pulled out the divorce papers I’d drafted months ago, and took a black marker to the terms. I crossed out the alimony, the mansion, and even the custody clause—if they wanted a life without me, I would give them exactly what they asked for. I left my four-carat diamond ring on the console table and walked out into the rain with nothing but a heavily encrypted hard drive. The submissive Mrs. Holloway was gone, and "Ghost," the most lethal architect in the tech world, was finally back online to take back everything they thought I’d forgotten.
