Chapter 1 Starting

The car indicator came on pointing to the right. It slowed down and then turned towards the parking area. He was smartly dressed and looking hot with a shaved beard. He looked far older than his age and the most eye-catching features were his shining dazzling eye and his low haircut. Walking majestically from his car, he entered the cottage. Lucy's stepmom greeted him warmly and asked Lucy to bring him a glass of water. He rejected it and told Lucy's stepmom he had already drunk coffee on his way. Lucy went inside wondering why the stranger was there.

She stood closer to the door to listen to what they were about to say. The stepmom started the conversation, she told the man(Master Elliot) about Lucy. She couldn't hear what they were saying again because they had gone deep into the conversation. Later, she got to know from her stepmom that she had arranged for her to go and stay with him forever. Lucy was shocked because she did not know the man and sad that she was leaving her dad. The next day, a posh car came for her to the mysterious place. She got into the car and they headed north to the place. A few hours later, the car stopped by a huge mansion with an electronic gate. They entered and she was welcomed by the warm and nice environment. The driver opened the door for her and she got down. She saw the man who came there yesterday. He escorted her to her room and told her she would be working as the new maid since the other one was sick. Lucy was given a new set of uniforms to put on to start work tomorrow. Early the next day, she woke up early and started cleaning around and cutting the edges of the grass. She prepared coffee for the master and later in the day was introduced to the rest of the workers. She became friends with the driver and the gatekeeper. She makes sweet and delicious cookies for them. The master(Elliot)began to develop some feelings for her. He loves the coffee she prepares and always asks for more. Lucy became used to certain things as the days went by. She was loved by all the workers

One night, Lucy was sending the master's evening meal. When she got there the door was open so she was wondering why it was left like that. She entered and found out that the master was shirtless with only boxers on. She quickly placed the food down apologized and asked to take her leave when the master asked her to wait. She was feeling unusual when he asked her to wait, the master asked her to sit down. She sat down with her head down feeling nervous. He asked her to look at him and don't call him master but his name is Elliot. a she got to know that he was the popular billionaire everyone was talking about in town. He was not married because he was glued to his work and always working nonstop. She asked him why he didn't take a break from work. He told her his fear when he stopped working all that he had worked for would be destroyed by his opponent the Kwartizs She now knows why he always works at night and has less sleep. He finished eating and she stood up to take the dishes when she tripped and fell on his legs. He caught her up and they were left staring at each other. Lucy quickly got up and apologized for that. He told her it was not his fault but his leg caused it. She left immediately to the kitchen to wash the dishes and go to her room. When she left, he was thinking about what just happened and he was thinking about Lucy till he fell asleep. Lucy kept thinking about what happened too and pondered over it till morning. She woke up late because of that and she was late for duties so she rushed to the kitchen to start. The driver came to call her, she was asked to come now by the master. She left quickly only for her to be shouted at by Elliot for not bringing his coffee on time. She tried explaining but he cut her off and sent her away to go and bring it quickly. She was disturbed by the master's sudden change in behavior did the coffee fast and sent it to him. Later in the day, the driver told her the master lost one of his huge contracts so he was sober. She now understands why he acted like that in the morning. An idea came to her to make some sweet cookies and go and comfort him. He was thinking about how to get that contract back when Lucy came inside. He asked her what she was doing in the office. Lucy placed the tray down on his table and told him how sad she felt when she heard about his situation. He was wondering why she would be sad when he even shouted at her in the morning but she was still acting nice to her. He immediately apologized for what he did in the morning. Lucy accepted it and offered him one of the cookies. He ate it and asked for more. He started telling her why and everything that had happened and Lucy suggested a way out to get the contract back. He was bumfuzzled at how she came about with a brilliant idea.

I died on a Tuesday. It wasn't a quick death. It was slow, cold, and meticulously planned by the man who called himself my father. I was twenty years old. He needed my kidney to save my sister. The spare part for the golden child. I remember the blinding lights of the operating theater, the sterile smell of betrayal, and the phantom pain of a surgeon's scalpel carving into my flesh while my screams echoed unheard. I remember looking through the observation glass and seeing him-my father, Giovanni Vitiello, the Don of the Chicago Outfit-watching me die with the same detached expression he used when signing a death warrant. He chose her. He always chose her. And then, I woke up. Not in heaven. Not in hell. But in my own bed, a year before my scheduled execution. My body was whole, unscarred. The timeline had reset, a glitch in the cruel matrix of my existence, giving me a second chance I never asked for. This time, when my father handed me a one-way ticket to London-an exile disguised as a severance package-I didn't cry. I didn't beg. My heart, once a bleeding wound, was now a block of ice. He didn't know he was talking to a ghost. He didn't know I had already lived through his ultimate betrayal. He also didn't know that six months ago, during the city's brutal territory wars, I was the one who saved his most valuable asset. In a secret safe house, I stitched up the wounds of a blinded soldier, a man whose life hung by a thread. He never saw my face. He only knew my voice, the scent of vanilla, and the steady touch of my hands. He called me Sette. Seven. For the seven stitches I put in his shoulder. That man was Dante Moretti. The Ruthless Capo. The man my sister, Isabella, is now set to marry. She stole my story. She claimed my actions, my voice, my scent. And Dante, the man who could spot a lie from a mile away, believed the beautiful deception because he wanted it to be true. He wanted the golden girl to be his savior, not the invisible sister who was only ever good for her spare parts. So I took the ticket. In my past life, I fought them, and they silenced me on an operating table. This time, I will let them have their perfect, gilded lie. I will go to London. I will disappear. I will let Seraphina Vitiello die on that plane. But I will not be a victim. This time, I will not be the lamb led to slaughter. This time, from the shadows of my exile, I will be the one holding the match. And I will wait, with the patience of the dead, to watch their entire world burn. Because a ghost has nothing to lose, and a queen of ashes has an empire to gain.

I watched my husband sign the papers that would end our marriage while he was busy texting the woman he actually loved. He didn't even glance at the header. He just scribbled the sharp, jagged signature that had signed death warrants for half of New York, tossed the file onto the passenger seat, and tapped his screen again. "Done," he said, his voice devoid of emotion. That was Dante Moretti. The Underboss. A man who could smell a lie from a mile away but couldn't see that his wife had just handed him an annulment decree disguised beneath a stack of mundane logistics reports. For three years, I scrubbed his blood out of his shirts. I saved his family's alliance when his ex, Sofia, ran off with a civilian. In return, he treated me like furniture. He left me in the rain to save Sofia from a broken nail. He left me alone on my birthday to drink champagne on a yacht with her. He even handed me a glass of whiskey—her favorite drink—forgetting that I despised the taste. I was merely a placeholder. A ghost in my own home. So, I stopped waiting. I burned our wedding portrait in the fireplace, left my platinum ring in the ashes, and boarded a one-way flight to San Francisco. I thought I was finally free. I thought I had escaped the cage. But I underestimated Dante. When he finally opened that file weeks later and realized he had signed away his wife without looking, the Reaper didn't accept defeat. He burned down the world to find me, obsessed with reclaiming the woman he had already thrown away.
