Just when Carla believes she has lost everything, she is saved by Henry Wordsworth, heir to TJX Fashion Company. With Henry's help, she embarks on a quest for revenge, determined to take down everyone who wronged her. But what happens when she discovers that the parents of her newfound love, Henry, are the ones behind her parents' deaths?

Chapter 1 Prologue

As she slowly walked through the garden filled with beautiful red roses and hibiscus flowers, the breeze gently blew against her face, making the strands of her curled hair drift against her smooth skin. She was putting on a short white dress, which accentuated her figure. The dress was decorated with pearls and stones, which shone under the sunlight.

She slowly shut her eyelids to inhale the fresh air, which somehow consoled her troubled and restless mind. She smiled although deep down in her, she knew she wasn't happy.

She couldn't get herself to be happy until she gets her revenge on them; on the people who repaid her kindness with evil. The ones who took her children away from her and made life a living hell for her. The thought of those sinners made her eyes flung open. She clenched her fists in frustration and gritted her teeth to show her hatred for them.

She remembered how happy she was some years back before Carlos and Charles came into her life and turned it into a garden of bitterness. She remembered when Charles jilted her and how Carlos had come through for her. She had thought Carlos was going to heal the pain the demon Charles had caused her, not knowing that Carlos was the King of Demons. Although she loathed them, she still felt grateful towards them. She felt the need to thank them for killing the old her and bringing out the devil in her.

She proceeded to walk away from the garden into her gigantic living room. The living room exuded luxury with velvet sofas, a marble coffee table, and a crystal chandelier casting a warm glow. Large windows with silk curtains and a Persian rug completed the rich, elegant feel. In the living room, apart from the paintings, a large portrait hung on the wall. It was the wedding portrait of her and a man. The man she saw as nothing more than her revenge pawn. The man she never thought she would fall in love with. Looking at the portrait, she smiled.

She sat on a mini sofa after which she called out for one of the maids to serve her juice. Picking up the glass of juice, she took a sip as her eyes ravaged through some pictures she was holding. Her eyes blazed with fire as she looked at the pictures and a wave of rage washed over her. Just then, a tall figure dressed in a black suit walked in. She noticed the presence of the figure, but she didn't lift her head up to acknowledge his presence.

The figure bowed his head to pay her respect after which she gestured for him to rise. Putting down the pictures on the table near her, she raised her head as she placed her right leg on top the left and folded her arms.

"Spill." she commanded, her voice firm and stern.

"According to your directive Ma'am, I was able to gather some information. I looked into Mr. Clinton's death as you had instructed, and it wasn't an accident as it was claimed. It was a murder in disguise of one. Charles actually pushed him to his death" John, the tall figure man, who turned out to be her bodyguard and undercover agent said.

Hearing what John said, she clicked her tongue and burst out into laughter.

"Just as I had thought. A demon can never stop acting as one" she said aloud as she smirked with her arms still folded.

"What about Carlos? Did you get anything on him?" she queried as she faced the man, and her smile slowly faded away.

"Yes Ma'am, I did. He is having an affair with his secretary, and they have a two years old son together" he calmly replied.

"Wow!!! This is going to be more interesting than I had thought. I can't wait to have fun" she said as she slowly rose to her feet, with a devilish smile on her face.

She picked up two pictures with different women out of the stack she was holding earlier. She held one in her right hand and the other in her left hand. With her eyes fixed on the picture on her right hand, she said with a satisfying smile on her face "I can't wait to see the expression on your face, when you find out your darling husband killed you father".

"As for you dear sis, what are you going to do about your husband's mistress and her child? Will you accept them like I accepted you and your child 5 years ago or will you do otherwise? Can't wait for the real fun to begin!!!" she said as she turned her head to look at the picture in her left hand. She chuckled loudly and she laughed so hard that she began to tear up.

Finally, she stopped laughing and her once smiley face turned cold. It was so cold that it could make a hot plate of food cold. She vented her anger on the pictures she was holding by squeezing them. With a determined and unwavering look on her face, she said, "Dear Sinners, be ready for your judgement. Carla is back and the time of your reckoning has come!". She burst into uncontrollable laughter, which echoed in the room.

Contract With The Devil: Love In Shackles

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.

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.

Phoenix Rising: The Scarred Heiress's Revenge

I lived as the "scarred ghost" of the Stephens penthouse, a wife kept in the shadows because my facial burns offended my billionaire husband’s aesthetic. For years, I endured Kason’s coldness and my family's abuse, a submissive puppet who believed she had nowhere else to go. The end came with a blue folder tossed onto my silk sheets. Kason’s mistress was back, and he wanted me out by sunset, offering a five-million-dollar "silence fee" to go hide my face in the countryside. The betrayal cut deep when I discovered my father had already traded my divorce for a corporate bailout. My step-sister mocked my "trashy" appearance at a high-end boutique, while the sales staff treated me like a common thief. At home, my father threatened to cut off my mother's life-saving medicine unless I crawled back to Kason to beg for a better deal. I was the girl who took the blame for a fire she didn't start, the wife who worshipped a man who never looked her in the eye, and the daughter used as a human bargaining chip. I was supposed to be broken, penniless, and desperate. But the woman who stood up wasn't the weak Elease Finch anymore; she was Phoenix, a tactical predator with a $500 million secret. I signed the divorce papers without a single tear, walked past my stunned husband, and wiped the Finch family's bank accounts clean with a few taps on my phone. "Your money is dirty," I told Kason with a cold smile. "I prefer clean hands." The cage is open, the hunt has begun, and I’m starting with the people who thought a scar made me weak.
