The Convict Heiress: Marrying The Billionaire
The heavy thud of the release stamp was the only goodbye I got from the warden after five years in federal prison. I stepped out into the blinding sun, expecting the same flash of paparazzi bulbs that had seen me dragged away in handcuffs, but there was only a single black limousine idling on the shoulder of the road. Inside sat my mother and sister, clutching champagne and looking at my frayed coat with pure disgust. They didn't offer a welcome home; instead, they tossed a thick legal document onto the table and told me I was dead to the city. "Gavin and I are getting engaged," my sister Mia sneered, flicking a credit card at me like I was a stray dog. "He doesn't need a convict ex-fiancée hanging around." Even after I saved their lives from an armed kidnapping attempt by ramming the attackers off the road, they rewarded me by leaving me stranded in the dirt. When I finally ran into Gavin, the man who had framed me, he pinned me against a wall and threatened to send me back to a cell if I ever dared to show my face at their wedding. They had stolen my biotech research, ruined my name, and let me rot for half a decade while they lived off my brilliance. They thought they had broken me, leaving me with nothing but an expired chapstick and a few old photos in a plastic bag. What they didn't know was that I had spent those five years becoming "Dr. X," a shadow consultant with five hundred million dollars in crypto and a secret that would bring the city to its knees. I wasn't just a victim anymore; I was a weapon, and I was pregnant with the heir they thought they had erased. I walked into the Melton estate and made an offer to the most powerful man in New York. "I'll save your grandfather's life," I told Horatio Melton, staring him down. "But the price is your last name. I'm taking back what's mine, and I'm starting with the man who thinks he's marrying my sister."I took a deep breath and looked down the middle of the aisle, I saw her. She's the one I've been waiting for. She's the one I've been hoping to come back for.
I still remember what she told me 5 years ago before I left Vampire High.
She once said "you know 5 years from now, let's meet again, we're two for each other"
It was 5 years ago today and I saw her walking in the middle of the aisle, wearing her white gown and holding the wedding flowers, she stop walking when the man in front of her held his hand and guide her to face the priest.
My tears flowed. I wiped it immediately while looking at her.
She's getting married to my best friend.
I turned back to them and start to walk slowly.
She's deceit, she's deceit. She said after 5 years we will meet again and we will be for each other. Now we see each other but she is already with someone else.
I stopped walking and looked back in their direction.
I'm seeing her Happy now with her husband.
"Congratulations ..... Mon Amour ......" With that my tears flowed again.
I walked back to my car and when I got on I hit the steering wheel and then cried.
I waited for almost 5 years for her, I waited 5 fucking years to be with her again but now .... She's getting married to my best friend.
"I hope you are happy now .... Lit Tallulah Fuertez."

Von POV
"Sorry, I'm late," Van said reluctantly and sat in his chair next to me. Our brother looked at him so I remained silent. That asshole bastard is not in the mood today.
"What happened to your face?" Fin asked.
"A stranger came and punched my face." He replied. I began to eat quietly while listening to them.
"What? Why didn't you call me right away?" Fin asked again.
"As if you care?" Van replied so I look at him.
"What is happening to you Van?" Creed asked. Van didn't answer so I answered.
"He's not in the mood," I said so they looked at me.
"Why, what happened?" Dad asked. Van didn't answer again so I answered again.
"Ugh ... his date with Aphrodite was ruined," I replied. They all looked at Van.
"What?" Leona asked.
"And then, there's a stranger who came here and punched his face," I added then drank wine.
"The fuck?" Leana asked wrinkled.
"Let's forget about that." Said, papa.
I just quietly ate while Dad talked to Fin and Clementine, They said that Clementine was about to give birth so that gave excitement to all of us. Until we got to know Creed. They said that Rizden was pregnant so we were even more excited because someone would add to the Vaughn Clan.
Until the conversation between Leona and Leana ended.
"I think I'm going to have a boyfriend soon," Leana said.
"Who's the lucky guy?" Dad asked.
"He's a merman dad," Leona said so papa looked at Leana.
"Really? A merman?" Papa asked.
"Did I think witches and mermaids would fight?" Van interjected.
