The first thing I felt was the cold marble against my cheek. Then, the sharp, metallic smell of my own blood. My husband, Ryan Scott, stood over me, his face twisted with hateful satisfaction as I drew my last breath on the execution platform. He blamed me for something I didn't do, for the deaths of a woman and her son he was obsessed with. My powerful family, once my shield, was destroyed; my father, executed. I woke with a gasp in my New York penthouse, the sun streaming through the windows – it was today, the day it all began again. My chief of staff called, panicked, about Ryan' s public protest demanding the release of an immigrant woman and her son, accused spies. In my first life, I begged Ryan to stop, used my family' s influence to deport them, and they were executed by their home country, sealing my fate. Ryan' s love turned to a decade of simmering hatred that ended with my own brutal execution. But this time, as he stormed into our bedroom, accusing me, I knew he remembered it all too, yet learned nothing. He tried to humiliate me, then bombed our penthouse to erase me from his twisted new timeline. I barely escaped, only to see him planning a full-blown coup, foreign mercenaries at his side, ready to burn Washington to the ground. Why was he doing this? Why was he still so blind, so obsessed with a foreign national, willing to betray everything for her? And why was I the only one who remembered the true depths of his depravity? Not this time. I called his uncle, activated a secret family pact, and set in motion a battle for the fate of our nation, determined to ensure the history I knew would never repeat itself.

Introduction

The first thing I felt was the cold marble against my cheek.

Then, the sharp, metallic smell of my own blood.

My husband, Ryan Scott, stood over me, his face twisted with hateful satisfaction as I drew my last breath on the execution platform.

He blamed me for something I didn't do, for the deaths of a woman and her son he was obsessed with.

My powerful family, once my shield, was destroyed; my father, executed.

I woke with a gasp in my New York penthouse, the sun streaming through the windows – it was today, the day it all began again.

My chief of staff called, panicked, about Ryan' s public protest demanding the release of an immigrant woman and her son, accused spies.

In my first life, I begged Ryan to stop, used my family' s influence to deport them, and they were executed by their home country, sealing my fate.

Ryan' s love turned to a decade of simmering hatred that ended with my own brutal execution.

But this time, as he stormed into our bedroom, accusing me, I knew he remembered it all too, yet learned nothing.

He tried to humiliate me, then bombed our penthouse to erase me from his twisted new timeline.

I barely escaped, only to see him planning a full-blown coup, foreign mercenaries at his side, ready to burn Washington to the ground.

Why was he doing this?

Why was he still so blind, so obsessed with a foreign national, willing to betray everything for her?

And why was I the only one who remembered the true depths of his depravity?

Not this time.

I called his uncle, activated a secret family pact, and set in motion a battle for the fate of our nation, determined to ensure the history I knew would never repeat itself.

My world revolved around Jax Harding, my older brother's captivating rockstar friend. From sixteen, I adored him; at eighteen, I clung to his casual promise: "When you're 22, maybe I'll settle down." That offhand comment became my life's beacon, guiding every choice, meticulously planning my twenty-second birthday as our destiny. But on that pivotal day in a Lower East Side bar, clutching my gift, my dream exploded. I overheard Jax' s cold voice: "Can't believe Savvy's showing up. She' s still hung up on that stupid thing I said." Then the crushing plot: "We' re gonna tell Savvy I' m engaged to Chloe, maybe even hint she' s pregnant. That should scare her off." My gift, my future, slipped from my numb fingers. I fled into the cold New York rain, devastated by betrayal. Later, Jax introduced Chloe as his "fiancée" while his bandmates mocked my "adorable crush"-he did nothing. As an art installation fell, he saved Chloe, abandoning me to severe injury. In the hospital, he came for "damage control," then shockingly shoved me into a fountain, leaving me to bleed, calling me a "jealous psycho." How could the man I loved, who once saved me, become this cruel and publicly humiliate me? Why was my devotion seen as an annoyance to be brutally extinguished with lies and assault? Was I just a problem, my loyalty met with hatred? I would not be his victim. Injured and betrayed, I made an unshakeable vow: I was done. I blocked his number and everyone connected to him, severing ties. This was not an escape; this was my rebirth. Florence awaited, a new life on my terms, unburdened by broken promises.
