I, Chloe Kessler, heiress to a global hotel empire, was living incognito, sorting spreadsheets in a Charlotte marketing job. My boring, "normal" life and even my boyfriend, Marky, were part of this deliberate attempt to "learn the real world." Then came the shocking dinner. Marky dumped me, blurting out he' d gotten my co-worker, Jess, pregnant, and they were getting engaged. His subtle perfume? It reeked of Jess' s sickly sweet scent. But the real humiliation hit days later. Marky and Jess, his heavily pregnant fiancée clinging to his arm, cornered me publicly at my favorite coffee shop. Their outrageous demand? Reimbursement for Marky's every dating expense – an actual invoice for their infidelity, delivered with my betrayer's sickeningly sweet smile. My mind reeled. They had betrayed me, now they were trying to extort me for their affair. The sheer audacity, the unbelievable nerve of these two, was stunning. Did they truly not realize who they were messing with? My fury mixed with volcanic amusement. Enough was enough. Their greed was the final straw. I pulled out my sleek, black Amex Centurion Card and dialed my family' s top lawyer. It was time to pull back the curtain on my "normal" life and unleash the full force of a Kessler. And to appease my demanding father, I was about to propose a fake marriage to the last man I ever expected: my family' s fiercest rival.

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.
