At his debut album party, I watched my boyfriend, Ethan White, on top of the world. His success, though, was built on my quiet sacrifices, my hidden connections as Amelia Sterling, heir to a Texas oil fortune. I'd given up everything to be "Amy," the girl who loved his music, not his money. But his slick new manager, Sophia Rivera, had other plans. She turned Ethan's triumph into my public execution. On the giant screen, my face flashed, doctored photos painting me as a manipulative, cheating schemer. "Gross Misconduct," read the bold red text next to my name as Ethan fired me, his eyes colder than I ever imagined. He accused me of using him, of having a "sugar daddy," pointing to a photo of me with my own father. Sophia smashed my phone and he locked me in our apartment, threatening to blacklist me from the industry, while she faked a pregnancy to solidify her place. My heart shattered into a million pieces. Every sacrifice, every hidden connection I pulled for him, twisted into a weapon. How could the man I loved, for whom I gave everything, betray me so cruelly, so publicly? Trapped and heartbroken, one last flicker of hope remained. A battered burner phone, tucked away, for emergencies. With trembling fingers, I called the only person strong enough to turn this nightmare around. "Dad," I choked out, revealing the truth of Amelia Sterling for the first time in years. Ethan White had just declared war on the wrong woman, and he had no idea what was coming.

Introduction

At his debut album party, I watched my boyfriend, Ethan White, on top of the world.

His success, though, was built on my quiet sacrifices, my hidden connections as Amelia Sterling, heir to a Texas oil fortune.

I'd given up everything to be "Amy," the girl who loved his music, not his money.

But his slick new manager, Sophia Rivera, had other plans.

She turned Ethan's triumph into my public execution.

On the giant screen, my face flashed, doctored photos painting me as a manipulative, cheating schemer.

"Gross Misconduct," read the bold red text next to my name as Ethan fired me, his eyes colder than I ever imagined.

He accused me of using him, of having a "sugar daddy," pointing to a photo of me with my own father.

Sophia smashed my phone and he locked me in our apartment, threatening to blacklist me from the industry, while she faked a pregnancy to solidify her place.

My heart shattered into a million pieces.

Every sacrifice, every hidden connection I pulled for him, twisted into a weapon.

How could the man I loved, for whom I gave everything, betray me so cruelly, so publicly?

Trapped and heartbroken, one last flicker of hope remained.

A battered burner phone, tucked away, for emergencies.

With trembling fingers, I called the only person strong enough to turn this nightmare around.

"Dad," I choked out, revealing the truth of Amelia Sterling for the first time in years.

Ethan White had just declared war on the wrong woman, and he had no idea what was coming.

The quarterly board meeting was standard, a high-stakes, productive morning for me, Scarlett King, CEO of King Global. My phone vibrated discreetly on the mahogany, a text from my oldest friend, Maria, flashing urgently across the screen. "Scarlett. Urgent. Check this link. I'm so sorry." The link opened an Instagram reel, and my blood ran ice cold. It was Desert Mirage, my champion Arabian stallion-a treasured legacy from my grandfather-terrified, his magnificent coat matted with cheap glitter. A woman, Tiffany Starr, brutally yanked his reins. Then, sickeningly, my husband Ethan's laugh echoed, encouraging her. The caption seared: "Ethan says I can handle anything! Even this rich bitch's pony." My hands clenched. When I called, Ethan sounded annoyed. "Scarlett? Tiffany was just having fun. He's just a horse." He hung up, dismissing me as "uptight" to someone nearby, the line going dead. "Just a horse." My horse. My legacy. He dismissed it. He dismissed me. He sided with her. This wasn't mere abuse; it was a public desecration of my soul's depth, my family's legacy. The humiliation was a raw, physical ache, hardening into cold, pure fury. This was more than betrayal; it was a declaration of war. I didn't scream, I didn't cry. My mind honed to laser focus. I buzzed Marcus, my head of security. "Tiffany Starr is at the Chateau Marmont. Remove her. Publicly. Serve a restraining order. Revoke all King Global studio access." They wanted a war. They would get one they'd regret.
