Chapters

Chapter 2

To us, Nick was thoughtful, sweet, and ambitious.

He was perfect in every way, but Benedetta's question shattered my last flicker of denial.

"This is Nick's hub," I muttered, my voice heavy with realization, "and this woman is his mistress."

My hands shook as I pulled out my phone, ready to call him and demand answers. But before I could dial, Morgan's manicured hand shot out, snatching my phone.

"Calling for backup? Dream on." She dangled the phone mockingly before smashing it onto the concrete floor.

The screen shattered. Not satisfied, she ground her stiletto into the wreckage, reducing it to fragments.

My restraint snapped, rage boiling over, but Morgan reveled in it. "You're not just paying $500,000; you're going to grovel at my livestream, begging for forgiveness. Nobody messes with Morgan Lamb."

The name hit like a thunderbolt.

Weeks ago, I'd glimpsed a heart emoji with a "Mo" on Nick's lock screen. When I asked, he dismissed it as a client. Now the truth was undeniable.

Benedetta pieced it together that this was indeed Nick's new company and that the man Morgan spoke of was Nick.

Her face blanched, but she clung to hope. "I'm Nick Griffin's sister. Did you make a mistake? My brother has got a girlfriend, and that's Jennifer."

Morgan's hand lashed out, slapping Benedetta across the face. "You, his sister? Look at yourself, you pathetic nobody!"

Benedetta stumbled back, her head crashing against a table's sharp edge with a sickening thud.

My heart leaping to my throat, I rushed to her side. "Benedetta!"

Blood gushed from her scalp, streaking her pale face. She curled into a ball, clutching her head. Blood seeped through her fingers.

"Jennifer..." she whispered, her eyes unfocused. "My head hurts so much."

"Benedetta, hold on!" I cradled her, my voice breaking.

"Help... Help me," she murmured, her body convulsing.

With my phone gone, I fumbled for hers, finding it in her pocket. But before I could hit the dial button, Morgan ripped it away, waving it at her livestream. "Look, fam! They're pulling a fake injury stunt to scam us. What a joke!"

The crowd roared with laughter, pointing at us.

"Give it back!" I lunged, but the guards tackled me, slamming my face into the cold floor.

Pinned, I could only watch Benedetta's breathing grow fainter. Desperation crept in, and I screamed, "She is really Nick's sister. She just had brain surgery. She'll die without help!"

My pleas were lost in the livestream's cruel jeers.

Three days after my fiancé publicly dumped me for my stepsister, the Supreme Don issued a command that silenced the entire estate. I wasn't being cast aside. I was being sold to Damien Russo. The "Broken Don." A crippled, scarred monster rumored to have murdered his last two wives. My adoptive mother, Elena, didn't cry for me. She smirked. To her, I was finally being disposed of. She was so confident I was walking to my death that she decided to loot my corpse before I even left. She forged documents to steal my entire inheritance—my biological mother’s trust fund—to pay for my stepsister’s lavish wedding to my ex. "She won't need money where she's going," my stepsister laughed, wearing a dress bought with my stolen funds. They thought they were sending a lamb to the slaughter.

With my aunt’s help, I didn't just find the proof of their embezzlement; I found a weapon. I’m not running from the monster. I’m going to marry him. And when I hand him the evidence that the Herrera family stole from his bride, he won't be my executioner. He will be my vengeance.
