Chapter 1 Whispering Darkness

The small town of Ravenwood lay nestled in the heart of a dense forest, its streets cloaked in an eerie silence. Emily Collins, a seventeen-year-old with a wild mane of red hair and piercing green eyes, had always felt a strange connection to the shadows that danced along the town's edges. As if drawn by an unseen force, she found herself inexorably drawn towards the secrets that lurked within the dark alleys and abandoned houses.

One fateful night, while wandering through the desolate streets, Emily's path crossed with Adrian Blackwood, a mysterious figure who exuded an air of danger. His dark eyes seemed to hold untold secrets, and his presence sent shivers down her spine. Yet, in spite of her apprehension, Emily was drawn to him like a moth to a flame.

Their encounters became more frequent, and their conversations were filled with a mix of fascination and trepidation. Adrian spoke of a world beyond the ordinary, a realm of darkness and desire that he claimed was his domain. Emily found herself captivated by his tales, the allure of the forbidden pulling her deeper into his world

Elodie took a deep breath and knocked, the sound echoing in the quiet corridor. A moment of silence passed, broken only by the pounding of her heart. Finally, the door snicked open, revealing a surprised Dashiell. 'Can't you see the Do Not Disturb sign? We don't want-' His initial frown quickly morphed into confusion at the sight of his wife. 'What are you doing here?' he demanded. 'Your girlfriend invited me,' Elodie replied, her voice laced with icy calm. She tried to peer past him, but his broad frame blocked the view. A saccharine voice chimed in from within the room. 'Elodie? Oh dear, we didn't mean for you to find out this way. It's just that-' Elodie cut her short. 'Oh please, Selene. Spare me the fake apologies. You wouldn't have sent me all those texts if you didn't want me to know.' Dashiell shifted uncomfortably, his face a mask of annoyance. 'What texts?' Elodie stepped past him, taking in the luxurious suite with a sardonic smile. The king-sized bed, the scattered rose petals, the lingering scent of sex – it all painted a vivid picture of their betrayal. She looked up at Dashiell, her gaze unwavering. 'I want a divorce.' ****** Dashiell lived a life of luxury, surrounded by the best things money could buy. But when a car accident left him vulnerable, he met Elodie, a seemingly ordinary woman who nursed him back to health. Mistaking her for just another employee, Dashiell entered into a loveless marriage with her solely for convenience. However, fate had a different script in store. Elodie, the 'ordinary nurse,' held a secret more precious than any diamond: she was the sole heiress to Northstar, a vast and powerful enterprise. Unaware of her true identity, Dashiell cast her aside when his ex-girlfriend returned, leaving Elodie humiliated. But Elodie was not one to be easily broken. She shed the facade of the meek nurse, reclaiming her rightful inheritance and stepping into the role of Northstar's CEO. Now, the woman Dashiell discarded was the one holding the reins of power. As Elodie thrives in her new role, Dashiell is consumed by regret. He finally sees Elodie for the extraordinary woman she truly is, realising the depth of his mistake. But will his remorse be enough to win back the heart he so carelessly discarded?
