After My Divorce, My Ex Pursued Me

In the sixth year of my marriage to Stefan, I discovered I was pregnant, only to have the joy extinguished by the news of an ectopic pregnancy, forcing me to terminate it. On the morning of the miscarriage, I received a call from a woman. "Hi, could you please ask your husband to come home?" she said. "He's been lingering outside my place." I suddenly felt drained. When I handed the divorce papers to Stefan, he asked irritably, "Just over this small issue?" "Yes, just over this small issue." ... "It's just one phone call. Why are you making such a big deal out of it? And what can you even do after we split?" Stefan, falling back into his usual indifferent manner, asked with a mix of curiosity and disdain. I looked at his relaxed expression, realizing he didn't believe I would actually go through with the divorce. To him, it seemed like I was just throwing a tantrum in a new way.

"Hi, could you please ask your husband to come home?" she said. "He's been lingering outside my place."

I suddenly felt drained.

When I handed the divorce papers to Stefan, he asked irritably, "Just over this small issue?"

"Yes, just over this small issue."

...

"It's just one phone call. Why are you making such a big deal out of it? And what can you even do after we split?" Stefan, falling back into his usual indifferent manner, asked with a mix of curiosity and disdain.

I looked at his relaxed expression, realizing he didn't believe I would actually go through with the divorce. To him, it seemed like I was just throwing a tantrum in a new way.

"Stefan, I'm not being dramatic," I said, looking at him earnestly. "Let's get a divorce."

Stefan gazed at me for a moment, as if trying to gauge what I was trying to prove.

"Layne," he softened his tone, "I just had too much to drink yesterday. I went to her place just to ask her to join me for a coffee. If that upset you, I'm sorry. It won't happen again."

It was the first time Stefan had calmly explained himself to me, still thinking the divorce was solely about that phone call.

Last night, Stefan didn't come home.

I waited for him, dragging my post-surgery body through the night. Just as I was about to fall asleep, a call came from a stranger, a woman telling me Stefan was still outside her place.

Before I could call Stefan to confront him, my phone rang again.

"Miss, Stefan has left," she said, adding with a touch of contempt, "I just think you deserve better. When I had late-night snacks with him, I saw him cozying up to different women."

After hanging up, I didn't call Stefan to argue as I usually would. I just felt worn out.

Worn out from waiting, worn out from enduring.

Maybe losing this child was a sign that it was time to end this futile marriage.

I found out my husband of three years had cheated on me and his mistress is the one who told me-because he didn't have the balls to do it himself. I move out and get a new apartment, a job as a bartender, and try to move on with a broken heart. I wonder where it all went wrong, if I hadn't been enough for him, if I'd been stupid for marrying him in the first place. I'm at work one night when he walks inside-the most beautiful man I've ever seen. He sits at the bar and a forest fire burns between us. I was depressed the moment before he entered, but the second I look at his blue eyes, I forget the dumpster fire that my life has become. I invite him back to my place and it's the most passionate night of my life. I expect to never see him again. I just want him as an anti-depressant-but he wants me all to himself. I just got my heart ripped out of my chest so I want something easy and no-strings-attached, but he wants all the strings because he's hooked. I don't get much of a say in the matter, and that's not surprising when I learn why-because he's the Butcher. The crime lord of all crime lords, the boss that overshadows all of Paris, that makes everyone abide by his rules-or pay. And now I'm his.

After My Husband Humiliated Me, I Took His Empire

I walked into Charlie's office with the Hudson Yards contract clutched against my chest like a trophy. My heart hammered with excitement—three months of negotiations, countless sleepless nights, and finally, I'd closed the deal. A billion-dollar expansion that would cement our company's position as the premier real estate developer in Manhattan. "Charlie, it's done." I placed the signed contract on his mahogany desk, my hands trembling slightly. "They agreed to everything. The zoning variances, the timeline, even the sustainability clauses." He glanced up from his phone, that familiar smile spreading across his face. The one that used to make my stomach flutter back when we first met at Columbia. Now it just looked... practiced. "Excellent work, sweetheart." He opened his desk drawer, and I straightened my shoulders.

But when I went to surprise my boyfriend of three years, I found him kissing my spoiled adoptive sister, Tatum. They were celebrating their engagement to merge their powerful families. To keep me quiet, my adoptive mother, Eleanor, threatened to freeze my brother's medical trust fund unless I attended the party to play the supportive sister. Instead, I discovered Eleanor had been embezzling from my brother's life-saving fund to cover her own bad investments. The nightmare worsened when a drunken Ryder cornered me in my apartment stairwell. "Once I marry Tatum, Eleanor is giving me control of Liam's trust fund to buy out my father's board members."

For a decade, I suffered their abuse hoping for a shred of decency, only to realize they were plotting to leave my brother to die on the streets for corporate greed. Calling the police wouldn't stop these billionaires. I needed absolute power. Remembering the dark, predatory gaze of Jaren Jarvis—the ruthless billionaire who had watched me fight back at the party—I canceled my call to 911. If they wanted to destroy my only family, I was going to use the devil himself to crush theirs.
