My parents and brother were heroes, decorated with Medals of Freedom and a Medal of Honor for their profound sacrifice to this country. After their deaths, all my sister Isabella and I had was each other, and the fragile hope that she'd find happiness with her seemingly dependable fiancé, Ryan. But that hope shattered when a frantic call sent me to the ER: Isabella was brutally beaten, Ryan claiming she "fell," though the doctor confirmed blunt force trauma. The real horror began when Ryan's wealthy mistress, Victoria Jenkins, confronted me, admitting she was Isabella's attacker and gloating about her power. Ryan, the man who swore to protect Isabella, utterly betrayed her, backing Victoria's "accident" lie and accepting her family's blood money to dismiss the assault. The system failed us: police ignored my pleas, lawyers found their hands tied, and Victoria, untouchable because of her family's influence, literally threw money onto Isabella's bruised hospital bed, mocking her. Then came the kidnapping, the beating, the chilling blackmail: Victoria flaunted a vile video of Isabella and forced Ryan to confess an even darker secret-he'd previously pushed Isabella, causing a devastating miscarriage years ago. My sister's spirit broke, extinguishing the last flicker of hope in her eyes, leaving me rage-filled and desperate for true justice in a system that seemed utterly rigged. How could the ideals my family died for be so easily trampled by the corrupt and powerful? But as I looked at our heroes' medals, a cold, unyielding resolve ignited within me; Victoria thought she'd won, but she gravely underestimated a sister with nothing left to lose. We wouldn't disappear. We would make ourselves impossible to ignore, demanding this country live up to the sacrifices made for its freedom.

Introduction

My parents and brother were heroes, decorated with Medals of Freedom and a Medal of Honor for their profound sacrifice to this country.

After their deaths, all my sister Isabella and I had was each other, and the fragile hope that she'd find happiness with her seemingly dependable fiancé, Ryan.

But that hope shattered when a frantic call sent me to the ER: Isabella was brutally beaten, Ryan claiming she "fell," though the doctor confirmed blunt force trauma.

The real horror began when Ryan's wealthy mistress, Victoria Jenkins, confronted me, admitting she was Isabella's attacker and gloating about her power.

Ryan, the man who swore to protect Isabella, utterly betrayed her, backing Victoria's "accident" lie and accepting her family's blood money to dismiss the assault.

The system failed us: police ignored my pleas, lawyers found their hands tied, and Victoria, untouchable because of her family's influence, literally threw money onto Isabella's bruised hospital bed, mocking her.

Then came the kidnapping, the beating, the chilling blackmail: Victoria flaunted a vile video of Isabella and forced Ryan to confess an even darker secret-he'd previously pushed Isabella, causing a devastating miscarriage years ago.

My sister's spirit broke, extinguishing the last flicker of hope in her eyes, leaving me rage-filled and desperate for true justice in a system that seemed utterly rigged.

How could the ideals my family died for be so easily trampled by the corrupt and powerful?

But as I looked at our heroes' medals, a cold, unyielding resolve ignited within me; Victoria thought she'd won, but she gravely underestimated a sister with nothing left to lose.

We wouldn't disappear.

We would make ourselves impossible to ignore, demanding this country live up to the sacrifices made for its freedom.

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.
