Chapter 1 The heartbreak

Katherine stormed down the sidewalk, her long, dark hair whipping behind her like a furious entity. The crisp afternoon air did little to calm her racing thoughts. She had been suspecting her boyfriend, James, for weeks, and she had decided to give him a surprise visit. Her heart sank with every step toward his apartment, she just hope it's not as she thought.

At 20, Katherine was a vibrant university student, balancing classes and a part-time job. Her relationship with James had seemed perfect – or so she thought. They had met in their sophomore year, bonding over late-night pizza and study sessions. But lately, James was always laughing over the phone, and if she asked he would say "it's just one of my old friends". Katherine was not ready to ignore the red flags and today seemed to be the day to find out.

She reached his apartment complex and took a deep breath before knocking on the door. The sound of muffled laughter and music drifted through the wood. Her anxiety spiked. She knocked again, harder this time.

The door swung open, revealing James disheveled appearance. He was just with a duvet and he was sweating profusely. His eyes widened as his eyes met with Katherine's. Behind him, a half-naked girl, blonde and curvy, scrambled to cover herself on the bed.

Katherine's world crumbled. Her eyes locked onto the girl, then back to her boyfriend guilty face.

"Who is she?" She asked, her voice trembling.

Katherine stuttered, "Babe, it's not –"

"Don't lie!" She interrupted, her voice rising. "I can see for myself."

The blonde girl, now wrapped in a towel, slunk away, disappearing into the bathroom. James attempted to grasp Katherine's arm, but she slapped his hand away.

"Don't touch me with those filthy hands!", She yelled. "How could you, James?" Her tears threatened to fall. "How could you do this to me, was I not enough?"

James expression suddenly turned cold. "You're overreacting, Katherine, It meant nothing."

"Really?", She muttered and began to walk away angrily. She took her steps slowly, hoping he would call out to her but he didn't. Her heart shattered into a million pieces and she ran in tears to God knows where.

Hours passed in a blur as Katherine wandered the streets, numb and tear-stained. Eventually, she found herself at the entrance of a local bar with the name, "drown your sorrows away".

Katherine pushed open the door and slid onto a stool.

"What can I get you?" the bartender asked, eyeing her tear-swollen face.

"Whiskey. Make it a double," she replied, her voice cracking.

As the liquor burned down her throat, she felt her emotions unravel. She ordered another, and another, losing count. The room began to spin.

A gentle voice whispered in her ear, "Hey, you okay?".

Katherine turned to face a stranger – tall, dark-haired, and with a nice polo blouse. His concern seemed genuine.

"I'm fine," she said, waving her hand.

The stranger smiled and sat beside her. "Let's get you another drink" he said and smiled.

She didn't resist. She finds him alluring but she wasn't gonna get carried away by looks anymore. Once bitten twice shy!

"So what in the hell is a damsel like you doing out here?", He started a conversation.

"Just here to drown my sorrows away", she said and he smiled .

"Well, I can help you with that. What about you follow me while I show exactly where to drown your sorrows?", He smirked. Katherine looked at him doubtfully but eventually stood up to follow him.

"This way please", he said as he led her through the passage.

They got to a VIP door and he urged her to go in. "Why should I go in?", She questioned.

"The best way to drown your sorrow is a night stand. It's just to take your mind off things". Katherine didn't think much about this. She just wanted to forget everything and so she pushed the door opened, walked in and the door was shut behind.

A hand grabbed her waist and kissed her hungrily. She didn't know who it was and she didn't care, all she wanted was a distraction and she's getting it.

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."

For seventeen years, I was the crown jewel of the Kensington empire, the perfect daughter groomed for a royal future. Then, a cream-colored envelope landed in my lap, bearing a gold crest and a truth that turned my world into ice. The DNA test result was a cold, hard zero percent-I wasn't a Kensington. Before the ink could even dry, my parents invited my replacement, a girl named Alleen, into the drawing room and treated me like a trespasser in my own home. My mother, who once hosted galas in my honor, wouldn't even look me in the eye as she stroked Alleen's arm, whispering that she was finally "safe." My father handed me a one-million-dollar check-a mere tip for a billionaire-and told me to leave immediately to avoid tanking the company's stock price. "You're a thief! You lived my life, you spent my money, and you don't get to keep the loot!" Alleen shrieked, trying to claw the designer jacket off my shoulders while my "parents" watched with clinical detachment. I was dumped on a gritty sidewalk in Queens with nothing but three trunks and the address of a struggling laborer I was now supposed to call "Dad." I traded a marble mansion for a crumbling walk-up where the air smelled of exhaust and my new bedroom was a literal storage closet. My biological family thought I was a broken princess, and the Kensingtons thought they had successfully erased me with a payoff and a non-disclosure agreement. They had no idea that while I was hauling trunks up four flights of stairs, my secret media empire was already preparing to move against them. As I sat on a thin mattress in the dark, I opened my encrypted laptop and sent a single command that would cost my former father ten million dollars by breakfast. They thought they were throwing me to the wolves, but they forgot one thing: I'm the one who leads the pack.
