Between Love and Revenge: Return of the real Heiress! Chapter 1 The night everything changed

"Tell me to stop"he whispered slowly in her ear

"I don't want you to"Ava muttered closing her eyes for a moment, letting the subtle scent wrap around her like a secret only they shared, igniting a thrill that made her heart race beneath the chaos of the night.

The journey started when she stepped out of the cab, her heels clicking against the sleek pavement of the Fontainebleau Hotel. Palm trees shimmered under golden lights, and the low sound of bass could already be heard pulsing through the night air. Her dress was different and daring, nothing like the old version of herself.Tonight, she wasn't the grieving girl with a broken past. Tonight, she was someone else.

She walked into LIV like she belonged there, letting the neon lights and smell of expensive perfume wrap around her. Bodies moved with hypnotic rhythm under the neon light and the DJ's beat made the floor feel alive.

She went to the barman to get her own shot and drank it

"One more please"

The bar man raised his eyesbrow, scanning her from head to toe,she caught his reaction and scoffed.

"What,do I look like a minor?"

He handed her another glass,she dranked it at one go and smirk before leaving for the party floor and started dancing.

Dancing to let go of the old her.

Dancing to the let go of her grief.

She was here to forget her memories.

It was her last night in a city where no one knew her name. No vengeance.No pain.No past.

Just the music and the fire in her veins

"You running from something?"a velvet-smooth voice whispered behind her.

She turned to look at the owner of the voice that sounded like melody and there in front of her is a tall guy looking dark and dangerous in a way that pulled her like gravity. His gaze met hers, steady, unreadable.A silent dare.

"Someone," she corrected.Then, with a smirk

"And you?"

He didn't answer. He just offered her his hand.

She took it as she stared back at him.

His gaze,he have this look that ignited something dangerous in her.

Ava's breath caught in her throat. For a moment, the music faded.The crowd disappeared.All that existed were those dangerous eyes, and the way they melted her with just one look.

She was already burning and he hadn't even said a word.

"You don't belong here," he said, voice low and smooth, barely audible over the music.

She smirked. "And you do?"

"I make places like this dangerous," he replied, eyes dropping to her lips.

It didn't sound like just a line but like a warning and it only made her want him more.

The beat of the music pounded around them, but her heartbeat was louder.

And then he leaned in.His lips hovered,not touching hers yet.

He gave her a second to pull away but she didn't.

He took it as go ahead and kissed her,their lips met like heat and hunger. A slow burn turned wild in seconds. His hand cradled the back of her neck, pulling her in, deepening the kiss. Her fingers curled into his shirt like she needed something to hold on to.

His lips tasted like drugs and Ava had never felt more alive.

The kiss deepened, turned hungrier, like they were both trying to forget something or remember what it was like to feel wanted.

He pulled back slightly, his forehead resting against hers. His breath was so warm.

"Tell me to stop," he whispered in his trembling voice.

Ava's eyes fluttered open, locking with his. "I don't want to."

That was all it took.

They stumbled out of the club as they found their way into the hotel elevator, kissing deeply like their life depends on it.At this point,Ava was so drunk.She was so down for what is going to happen next.

The hotel door clicked shut behind them.Ava didn't have time to think.He was already pulling her toward him again, his mouth crashing onto herslike he had been waiting for this since the moment their eyes met.

Her hands roamed up his chest, feeling the firm muscle under his shirt, while his fingers gripped her waist like he was afraid she will disappear.

He kissed her like she was his last breath.

They stumbled back, hitting the edge of the bed. Jace's hands were at the hem of her dress, with his eyes asking a silent question.She nodded.He removed her dress carefully and stare at her goddess like body

"Wow" he exclaimed softly, scanning her body.

Ava didn't look away. She wanted him to see all of her.

He pulled his shirt over his head and threw it aside.Her hands found the warm skin of his back as he leaned in again, mouth on her collarbone,trailing kisses down her neck, slowly but so erotic.

Every touch was electric.Ava didn't know when she started moaning which only turned him on the more.

They sank into the bed together, lips and limbs tangled. His hands explored her curves like he was memorizing her goddess like body hungrily.

Ava gasped as he pressed against her, every nerve on fire.

Their rhythm started from slow to faster, deeper, a breathless dance of need and emotion. Moans melted into kisses with her fingers clenched into the sheets.With their eyes locked as if they were both silently admitting something neither of them dared to say aloud.

Ava must admit this is the best sexual experience she've ever gone through with this very stranger going in and out of her and moaning softly.

When they finally collapsed beside each other,silence settled around them but being the inquisitive type,Ava decided to ask this very question that has been on her mind.

"What's your name?"

He chuckled softly after keeping quiet for minutes and cleared his throat while staring deep into her eyes.

"I'm Jace" he whispered.

Ava went silent,she felt it was unnecessary to ask him questions in the first place.

Without saying anything to his reply,she nodded her head and slept off.

The next morning

The sunlight streamed through the hotel curtains, casting a soft golden glow across the bed.

Ava stirred, her body aching in a sweet way. For a second,she forgot where she was.The silk sheets weren't hers. The air smelled faintly of his cologne and something addictive she couldn't name.She turned slowly.

The space beside her was empty.No note and no goodbye.

Just a memory burned into her skin on the way he touched her, the way he kissed her like he meant it.Like they were more than strangers.

Ava sat up, pulling the sheets around her. Her heart twisted unexpectedly. She hadn't planned to care. It was just a one-night escape. A distraction before the storm she was about to walk into.

She stood, picked up her clothes from the floor, and dressed in silence.

She reached the door, hesitated for one last look at the bed. Her lips curved in a sad smile.

"Goodbye Jace."

Then she left, heels clicking down the hallway, carrying with her only the memory of a man she never meant to meet .

Shearwater

I was four months pregnant, weighing over two hundred pounds, and my heart was failing from experimental treatments forced on me as a child. My doctor looked at me with clinical detachment and told me I was in a death sentence: if I kept the baby, I would die, and if I tried to remove it, I would die. Desperate for a lifeline, I called my father, Francis Acosta, to tell him I was sick and pregnant. I expected a father's love, but all I got was a cold, sharp blade of a voice. "Then do it quietly," he said. "Don't embarrass Candi. Her debutante ball is coming up." He didn't just reject me; he erased me. My trust fund was frozen, and I was told I was no longer an Acosta. My fiancé, Auston, had already discarded me, calling me a "bloated whale" while he looked for a thinner, wealthier replacement. I left New York on a Greyhound bus, weeping into a bag of chips, a broken woman the world considered a mistake. I couldn't understand how my own father could tell me to die "quietly" just to save face for a party. I didn't know why I had been a lab rat for my family’s pharmaceutical ambitions, or how they could sleep at night while I was left to rot in the gray drizzle of the city. Five years later, the doors of JFK International Airport slid open. I stepped onto the marble floor in red-soled stilettos, my body lean, lethal, and carved from years of blood and sweat. I wasn't the "whale" anymore; I was a ghost coming back to haunt them. With my daughter by my side and a medical reputation that terrified the global elite, I was ready to dismantle the Acosta empire piece by piece. "Tell Francis to wash his neck," I whispered to the skyline. "I'm home."

The heavy iron gates of the Wilderness Correction Camp groaned as they released me after three years of state-sponsored hell. I stood on the dirt road, clutching a plastic bag that held my entire life, waiting for the family that claimed they sent me there for "rehab." My brother, Brady, picked me up in a luxury SUV only to throw me out onto a deserted highway in the middle of a brewing storm. He told me I was a "public relations nightmare" and that the rain might finally wash the "stink" of the camp off me. He drove away, leaving me to limp miles through the mud on a snapped ankle. When I finally dragged myself to our family estate, my mother didn't offer a hug; she gasped in horror because my muddy clothes were ruining her Italian marble. They didn't give me my old room back. Instead, they banished me to a moldy gardener’s shack and hired a "babysitter" to make sure I didn't embarrass them further. My sister, Kaleigh, stood there in white cashmere, pretending to cry while clinging to her fiancé, Ambrose—the man who had once been mine. They all treated me like a volatile junkie, refusing to acknowledge that Kaleigh was the one who planted the drugs in my bag three years ago. They wanted to believe I was broken so they wouldn't have to feel guilty about the "wellness retreat" that was actually a torture chamber. I sat in the dark of that shed, feeling the cooling gel on the cigarette burns that covered my arms, and realized they had made a fatal mistake. They thought they had erased me, but I had returned with a roadmap of scars and a hidden satellite phone. At dinner, I didn't beg for their love. I simply rolled up my sleeves and showed them the price of their silence. As the wine spilled and the lies crumbled, I sent a single text to the only person I trusted: "I'm in. Let them simmer." The hunt was finally on.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.

I went to the City Clerk’s office for a routine copy of my marriage license to finalize a trust fund audit. I expected a simple piece of paper, but the clerk’s pitying look told me my entire life was a lie. "The license was never finalized, Ms. Oliver. In the eyes of the state, you are single." The three-hundred-guest wedding at the Plaza and the Vogue features meant nothing. My husband, Gray Cooley, had intentionally filed the documents with a "procedural defect" so he could discard me without a legal divorce. Moments later, an iCloud invite titled "Our Little Secret" popped up on my screen. It was a photo of my best friend, Brylee, holding a positive pregnancy test at our Hamptons estate. Gray’s text to her was the final blow: "Happy anniversary, babe. This baby is the best gift. Once the trust unlocks today, we’re done with the charade." I soon discovered they were even stealing my career, reassigning my architectural masterpiece to Brylee while preparing my eviction notice. Gray's mother called me a "barren mule" in a leaked recording, mocking the infertility I suffered after saving Gray’s life in a construction accident. I wasn't a wife; I was a three-year placeholder used to secure his inheritance. How could the man I bled for treat me like a disposable prop? How could my best friend carry his child while pretending to comfort me through my darkest moments? The betrayal burned until it turned into a cold, hard stone of fury. I didn't cry. Instead, I walked into the penthouse of the Barretts, the Cooleys' most powerful rivals. I signed a marriage contract with Kane Barrett, the man the tabloids called the "Beast of Wall Street." "I want a wedding," I told his father, my voice steady and lethal. "Bigger than the one I had with Gray." If they wanted me gone, they would have to watch me become the woman who owns their world.
