Chapters

Chapter 1

Rain fell across the city, drenching the streets and turning the wet streets to shine brightly revealing its beautiful lights.

Adrian Blackwell hardly noticed. His mind was filled with a lot of things he didn't have time for ,contracts, deadlines, people who had looked him down but even a mind like his couldn't prepare him for the battle that struck that night.

He was halfway to his car when a shadow moved too fast for him to catch. A sharp pain plunged in his side, and before he could react, a man pulled at him.

"Hey, step back." Adrian shouted, fighting to break free.

The man twisted his arm, and pain came up.

Adrian jammed his teeth. "You picked the wrong guy." He threw a punch, but another attacker came from behind.

Then a voice ,clear, commanding, cutting through the chaos,

"Back"

Adrian blinked, shocked.

She appeared out of nowhere, rain wetting her hair to her face. The lady moved with impossible precision, each move deliberate and calculated. She hit one attacker with a fast kick, then hit at the other, sending him flying.

Adrian could barely catch a glimpse of her face.

But he saw she had a small body stature, focused movements, and a shining necklace around her neck. Her face remained partially hidden due to the wet hair and also the scarf tied around her face.

"Are you okay?" she shouted, her voice calm but firm.

"Yeah," he gasped, breaking free from the second attacker. "Thanks but who are you?"

She didn't answer. She only moved, helping just long enough to give him space.

Adrian landed a kick that sent the second attacker sliding across the wet grounds , but before he could even catch his breath, she was gone,disappearing into the rain soaked night.

Adrian's gaze dropped to the ground.

There, lying on the ground, was the shining necklace she wore on her neck.

He bent down, cleaning off the rain drops and studying it.

Tiny writings, Beautiful design, something familiar about it he couldn't just place. He put it into his coat pocket.

"Wait," he called after her, but the street swallowed his words.

Her presence remained in his chest, a pull he didn't understand. Something about her ,the way she moved, her voice, that necklace pushed at him, demanding attention.

By the time he reached his car, the feelings had reduced slightly, leaving a strange, almost obsessive curiosity in its place.

"Who was she? Why had she saved him? And why did it feel like the night itself had changed because of her?" Those were questions racing in his mind. He entered his car and drove off still feeling pain.

Driving through the city, every shadow seemed suspicious, even passers by.

He didn't know her name,didn't even know her face,but he would find her. Somehow.

Hours later, back in his apartment, the rain had slowed to a drizzle, leaving mist forming around the buildings.

Adrian leaned against the balcony railing, the necklace still in his hand.

He traced the tiny writings, feeling the heaviness of it.

"What are you hiding?" he whispered, almost to himself. "Who are you?"

The phone buzzed on the table, dragging him out of his thoughts.

A message from Ethan, his younger brother.

"You okay? You sound like something exploded in your head."

Adrian typed back quickly, still looking at the necklace.

"I'm fine. Just something happened tonight. Someone saved me."

Ethan's reply came almost instantly,

"Saved you? who?"

"I don't know," Adrian replied , his hand moving over the screen. "I didn't even see her face."

Ethan's text made him laugh slightly despite the tension,

"Of course you didn't. You would probably punch the mystery girl in the face if she got in your way."

Adrian chuckled softly, shaking his head. "Maybe, or maybe she would kick me across the street."

The thought made him pause. She was indeed strong, precise, and fearless. And then she disappeared,just like that.

He sank into his chair, the city lights pouring long shadows across the room.

Sleep tried to come, but his mind refused to rest. Every detail of the night played in his head,the rain, the attackers, her movements, that necklace.

He opened the window slightly, letting the mist come in.

"Who are you?" he asked again, whispering into the night. The question felt more than curiosity now.

It felt urgent, necessary. He didn't know why, but he knew this was the start of something that would change everything.

His thoughts wandered to the past.

Henry Rodriguez. The man,whom he was told killed his father,shaping him into the ruthless man he had become.

And now, he couldn't stop the feeling that this woman, this stranger, was tied to it all somehow.

A soft knock at the door startled him. Ethan, ever the unexpected visitor, stepped in, shaking off the rain. "You are still awake?"

Adrian held up the necklace. "Can you explain this?"

Ethan frowned, peering at it. "Looks expensive but no. Can't explain who left it in the street during a rainstorm."

Adrian's eyes moved. "Someone did this intentionally. That attack wasn't just a mistake, and she was there like she was supposed to be there."

Ethan raised an eyebrow. "You are obsessed already, huh?"

Adrian laughed, tension still filled in his chest. "Obsessed" is one word for it. I need to know who she is,why she saved me and what she wants."

"You think she is dangerous?" Ethan asked.

Adrian paused. "Not in the way you are thinking. Dangerous ,yes. But not the kind you can fight off. She is dangerous because I can't stop thinking about her."

Ethan shook his head, a smile forming at his lips. "Classic Adrian. Always chasing the impossible."

Adrian didn't answer. His mind was already racing ahead ,back to the street, back to the rain, back to the flash of her movement, the curve of her shoulders, the shine of that necklace.

He didn't know her name nor her face. Didn't even know if he would ever see her again. But he knew one thing with absolute certainty,she had changed the course of his life in a single night.

And somewhere, in the misty streets of Manhattan, a story had begun ,one he was determined to follow, no matter the cost.

I sacrificed my career as a violinist to save my fiancé, Graham, in a car crash that shattered my hand. For five years, I endured the pain and supported his political ambitions, believing in the future we planned to build around an old, historic theater. That future ended when I overheard him with his campaign manager, Kassidy. He was selling our theater to fund his campaign, dismissing my sacrifice as a mere "distraction." He called me a "drowned rat" one day, then posted a picture with Kassidy the next, captioned "#PowerCouple." He denied me money for a new physical therapy treatment, claiming the budget was tight, only to buy her an "exquisite" gift. He called her his "best asset." I was just a liability. My sacrifice wasn't an act of love to him; it was a "choice" I made that he now held over my head. So on the night of his career-defining gala, when he thought I was at home waiting for him, I prepared my own opening night. At the very theater he tried to steal from me.

If you and I cannot escape the sea of sin

Chapter 1 I’ve always loved dogs, so when I was a child, Grandfather placed a leash in my hand. He told me the boy technically my uncle, Anthony, would be my pet. From that day on, I learned to swing the whip. Laughing, I lashed him until he bled, all the while respectfully calling him Uncle. Later, the dog broke its chains and turned on its master. In public, I remained the unassailable heiress of the Jessica empire. In private, late at night, he would grip my throat, force me to my knees, and demand to know when I’d give him a child. I took it all in silence. Until the day I learned I was pregnant—and overheard him soothing his long-lost first love. “Marry me,” he said. “I’ll deal with Jessica so she won’t be in your way.” My fingers found the scar on my arm. No heartbreak, just the quiet tally of a countdown. When the seventh mark appeared, I would be free of him for good. --- My drifting consciousness snapped back as Anthony’s ragged breathing slowly eased. We clung to each other like any ordinary couple, limbs tangled. A flicker of warmth stirred in my chest. I opened my mouth to speak, but a sharp ringtone cut me off. Anthony snatched up his phone. Seeing the caller ID, he pulled out of me at once and answered, his voice softening. “Grace, what’s wrong?” Grace—Anthony’s long-lost first love, the girl who’d saved his life years ago. The woman he’d spent tens of millions wooing with flowers, yachts, and starlit villas. The one he’d proposed to ten times. Ice water poured over me, washing away every lingering trace of pleasure. I stayed silent. I swallowed the words that had almost spilled out in the heat of the moment— *I’m almost a month along.* “Anthony,” Grace’s wounded voice came through the speaker, “you went to see Jessica again, didn’t you?” His body still carried the heat of desire, but his eyes turned cold as they flicked toward me. Gently, he soothed her: “She’s just a bitch. If you don’t like it, I won’t touch her again.” Whatever Grace said next, Anthony didn’t bother lowering his voice as he headed for the bathroom. “Be good. Just say you’ll marry me, and I’ll deal with Jessica immediately. I won’t let her be an eyesore for you.” My heart plummeted. Ignoring the ache in my back and legs, I slid out of bed, wiped the sticky wetness from my skin, and curled up on the rug at the foot of the bed. I dragged the blanket over my naked body, trying to steal back a little warmth. A memory surfaced: eight years ago, after Anthony had tried to run from the Jessica family and been dragged back by Grandfather. Night after night, he’d slept curled on the floor of my room like a dog, utterly still. Back then, everyone thought my betrayal and torment had broken his spirit for good. No one knew that, under my deliberate cover, Anthony had been quietly trading stocks, investing, building a company—becoming Kingsport’s mysterious rising star. Years later, when Grandfather suffered a stroke and lay dying, with the Anthony's Group thrown into turmoil, Anthony finally struck. He nearly tore the family empire apart. In the end, it was me who saved the crumbling dynasty—kneeling on the floor, handing over every share of the Anthony's Group left to me in Grandfather’s will, then crawling into his bed. That day was my twentieth birthday. “Go shower. You can sleep in the bed tonight.” Anthony’s voice pulled me from the edge of sleep. His handsome features still held a trace of the tenderness he’d just shown the woman he loved. “Grace agreed to marry me. You’ll have to start calling her Mrs Jessica, Jessica.” A faint smile touched his lips—the first lively expression he’d shown me in a long time. It reminded me of eight years ago, when we’d fled the Jessica house hand in hand, betraying the world for our love. He’d grinned and shouted, “From today on, Jessica belongs to Anthony!” But now, even in our most intimate moments, he looked at me with nothing but hatred and impatience. That tenderness, that love—none of it was mine anymore. My throat tightened. I swallowed hard before answering evenly, “Congratulations.” Dazed, I walked into the bathroom and pulled up Gregory’s number. **Me:** Begin the plan. Gather the materials for submission. His reply came instantly. **Gregory:** Understood, Boss. I put my phone away and let scalding water pour over my skin. A cold, heavy ache settled in my chest, but beneath it bloomed a fierce, swelling hope. Six years and eleven months. I was finally close. This monstrous house, built on sin and cruelty—I would watch it crumble to dust with my own eyes. My fingers traced the six scars on my right arm, each one raised and distinct. I closed my stinging eyes. Just one more month. Once the seventh year was complete, once the seventh mark appeared, I could end this. I could leave for good.
