Olivia Morgan stood at the deserted runway, her one-way ticket to Milan clutched in her hand, leaving behind a cold penthouse and a husband who should have known why. Her best friend Emily' s call confirmed her escape, urging her not to look back. But back at the penthouse, her husband, Ethan Carter, a man defined by power, was handed divorce papers by his assistant, Sophia, just as he was about to rush to the airport to stop Olivia. Furious but dismissive, he signed them without a glance, certain it was a bluff to grab his attention, and tossed his primary credit card to Sophia, telling her to "handle it." Sophia's triumphant smirk, masked by feigned concern, was lost on him as he sped off, determined to win Olivia back, unaware his assistant had just texted Olivia' s lawyer: "He signed. It's done." Olivia, seeing her lawyer' s confirmation, felt the last flicker of hope die. This cold, swift dismissal, rather than a fight or negotiation, brought a strange, quiet peace. But this peace was short-lived. Olivia returned to the penthouse for legal reasons, only to find Ethan flaunting Sophia, who openly taunted Olivia. When Sophia dramatically faked an injury to frame Olivia, Ethan, without question, lashed out, publicly humiliating Olivia, culminating in a brutal, public assault. Imprisoned by Ethan in a windowless "discipline room," Olivia faced escalating cruelty, including the withholding of her vital heart medication, as Ethan, blinded by Sophia' s manipulation, refused to believe his wife' s innocence, his acts leading to devastating physical and emotional injuries. How could the man who promised to protect her become this monster, and why did he so readily believe every lie Sophia spun against her, transforming from a loving husband into a tormentor? Then, Sophia' s malicious charade of "poisoning" at her own birthday party, another attempt to frame Olivia, led to Ethan's ultimate, brutal public attack on Olivia, witnessed by guests and his own grandfather, forcing Olivia to confront the final, crushing truth: there was no going back, and she had to fight for her life-and her freedom-away from him.

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.
