I opened my eyes to the familiar crack in my Austin apartment ceiling. My phone buzzed: "Desert Bloom" Release Day. This was it: the day my life ended in a nightmare I'd already lived. Caleb, the Nashville star, would steal my song, ruin my reputation, and trigger a cascading tragedy that led to my parents' death and my own fall from Pennybacker Bridge. But I was here, alive, on that same morning. Panicked, I called my manager, Marcus, and demanded he pull my song immediately. It was too late. Two hours later, a news alert confirmed my horror: Caleb had released "Desert Bloom." It was my song, note for note. Desperate, I wrote an entirely new song offline, recording it on an old 4-track, a raw anthem of rage. Five days later, the headlines screamed: Caleb had released that song too. He wasn't just stealing my music; he was stealing my thoughts, pulling them directly from my mind. The despair was crushing, the violation absolute. How was this possible? My ex-girlfriend, Chloe, then called, inviting me to Caleb's victory party, feigning concern. This wasn't about saving face; it was a trap. But I agreed, for this time, I wasn't just surviving; I was going to Nashville not to beg, but to fight, to find out how deep this impossible betrayal ran, and unleash a force that could make them pay.

Introduction

I opened my eyes to the familiar crack in my Austin apartment ceiling.

My phone buzzed: "Desert Bloom" Release Day.

This was it: the day my life ended in a nightmare I'd already lived.

Caleb, the Nashville star, would steal my song, ruin my reputation, and trigger a cascading tragedy that led to my parents' death and my own fall from Pennybacker Bridge.

But I was here, alive, on that same morning.

Panicked, I called my manager, Marcus, and demanded he pull my song immediately.

It was too late.

Two hours later, a news alert confirmed my horror: Caleb had released "Desert Bloom."

It was my song, note for note.

Desperate, I wrote an entirely new song offline, recording it on an old 4-track, a raw anthem of rage.

Five days later, the headlines screamed: Caleb had released that song too.

He wasn't just stealing my music; he was stealing my thoughts, pulling them directly from my mind.

The despair was crushing, the violation absolute.

How was this possible?

My ex-girlfriend, Chloe, then called, inviting me to Caleb's victory party, feigning concern.

This wasn't about saving face; it was a trap.

But I agreed, for this time, I wasn't just surviving; I was going to Nashville not to beg, but to fight, to find out how deep this impossible betrayal ran, and unleash a force that could make them pay.

Two years after her marriage, Ximena lost consciousness in a pool of her own blood during a difficult childbirth. She forgot that her ex-husband was actually getting married to someone else that day. "Let's get a divorce, but the baby stays with me." His words before their divorce was finalized still lingered in her head. He wasn't there for her, but he wanted full custody of their child. Ximena would rather die than see her child call someone else mother. As a result, she gave up the ghost on the operating table with two babies left in her belly. But that wasn't the end for her... Years later, fate caused them to meet again. Ramon was a changed man this time. He wanted to keep her to himself even though she was already a mother of two children. When he found out about her wedding, he stormed into the venue and created a scene. "Ramon, I died once before, so I don't mind dying again. But this time, I want us to die together," she yelled, glaring at him with hurt in her eyes. Ximena thought he didn't love her and was happy that she was finally out of his life. But what she didn't know was that the news of her unexpected death had shattered his heart. For a long time, he cried alone due to the pain and agony. He always wished he could turn back the hands of time or see her beautiful face once again. The drama that came later became too much for Ximena. Her life was filled with twists and turns. Soon, she was torn between getting back with her ex-husband or moving on with her life. What would she choose?
