Reborn To Swap Husbands With My Sister

The sensation of falling wasn't like flying; it was heavy, violent, and smelled of burning flesh. Above us, on the crumbling balcony of the Sears manor, Duke Cato Sears turned his back, shielding his cousin Bianca from the smoke as he walked away, leaving my sister Blossom and me to drop into the abyss. As the darkness slammed shut like an iron door, I realized my entire life had been a cruel script written by the people I called family. In my first life, I was the sacrificial lamb of the Dawson manor, sold to a man who eventually watched me die without blinking. My sister Blossom had pushed me into Cato's arms to avoid his rumors, only to laugh when the fire finally consumed us both. My father had measured my value like a piece of livestock, and my step-grandmother didn't even acknowledge my existence while I was being led to the slaughter. I died in that fire, feeling the heat scorch my skin and the weight of a hatred so potent it tasted like bile. I spent twenty years being the weak, manipulated shadow of a girl, only to end up as nothing more than a phantom scorch mark on a "hero's" estate. I couldn't understand why my own blood treated my life like a game they could discard. The injustice of it all burned hotter than the flames that took my last breath. Then, I sat up, sucking in air that tasted of lavender and air conditioning, not smoke. I was back in my bedroom, three days before the engagement ball that ruined my life. Blossom stood at the door, her "sweet" mask slipping as she tried to manipulate me into the Duke's path again. She thought she was the only one who had come back, but she didn't realize that this time, I was going to let her have exactly what she wanted: the Duke, the bankruptcy, and the living hell that awaited her in that house.

Chapter 4

The headline the next morning was brutal.

DUKE TAKES A DIP: A WET AND WILD NIGHT AT SEARS MANOR.

The photo was even worse. Blossom looked like a drowned rat, her mouth open in a scream, while Cato looked at Bianca with undeniable tenderness.

Garrick Dawson threw the newspaper onto the mahogany desk. It landed with a slap that made Andria jump.

"Disgraceful," he spat. "Absolutely disgraceful."

Blossom sat on the sofa, her eyes puffy from crying. "It wasn't my fault! Andria pushed me!"

"I was ten feet away getting a towel," Andria said quietly from the corner. "The cameras saw everything, Blossom."

Garrick ignored them. "The Sears family lawyers called. They want to contain this. They're offering a marriage to silence the rumors about Bianca."

Blossom sat up straight. "He wants to marry me?"

"He has to marry one of you," Garrick said, rubbing his temples. "To show that the Dawson family is still in good standing. But he's requested... specifically..."

"Me," Blossom finished, a smug smile breaking through her tears. "He saved me. He held me."

Actually, he saved Bianca, but Andria didn't correct her.

"Yes," Garrick said. "He's agreed to marry you, Blossom. Which leaves us with a problem."

He turned his cold eyes to Andria. "The Royal engagement. We can't cancel it. It would be treason. Fortunately for us, the Palace's protocol for such matters is swift; they have a contingency for everything. They only need a bride, not a specific one."

"So?" Blossom said, waving her hand. "Let Andria do it. She's useless anyway. She can go nurse the dying Prince."

Andria lowered her head, hiding her expression. "But Daddy... Cato was my fiancé."

"Plans change," Garrick said sharply. "You will marry Prince Cameron. It's a higher title, Andria. You should be grateful."

"He's sick," Andria whispered, injecting a tremor into her voice. "Everyone says he won't last the winter."

"Then you'll be a rich widow," Blossom sneered. "Stop being selfish. I'm doing this for the family. I'm sacrificing myself to handle the scandal."

Andria took a deep breath. It was time.

"If I do this," she said, looking up at Garrick. "If I am to marry the Prince... I cannot go to the Palace empty-handed. It would be an insult to the Crown and reflect poorly on us. The Royal Family expects a bride with a dowry befitting her new station. Therefore, I must have control of Mom's dowry. All of it. The trust fund, the properties, the jewelry. It's not a request, Daddy. It's a political necessity."

Garrick narrowed his eyes. "That's a fortune, Andria."

"And the Crown expects nothing less," Andria said, her voice gaining strength. "If I arrive with insufficient assets, they'll think the Dawson family is cheap. They'll think you don't respect them. Is that a risk you're willing to take?"

She saw the hesitation in his face. He cared about money, but he cared about his reputation more.

"Give it to her, Daddy," Blossom urged. "Who cares? Once I'm Duchess Sears, I'll have access to the Sears fortune. That's worth ten times Mom's dowry."

Oh, you poor, stupid girl. The Sears fortune was gone. Cato was drowning in debt.

Garrick sighed. He pulled a file from his drawer. "Fine. Sign the papers. You take the dowry, you take the Prince, and you leave this house."

Andria walked to the desk. She picked up the heavy fountain pen.

She signed her name. Andria Dawson.

With that signature, she stripped her father of his liquid assets and handed her sister a lifetime of misery.

"Done," Andria said.

She walked out of the study. She went upstairs to her room.

Her phone buzzed in her pocket.

She pulled it out. A text from an unknown number.

"Deal accepted. See you at the altar. - C.K."

Andria stared at the screen. Cameron Kaufman.

He had been watching. He knew about the swap. He wanted the swap.

She typed back: "I hope you like black velvet."

She hit send.

I was the "crazy girl" my family sent to a survivalist commune in Utah to rot. Four years later, I returned to Manhattan with a titanium USB drive and a heart full of ice, ready to blackmail the one man who could burn my family to the ground. But I underestimated how much they hated me. My fiancé, Preston, was already laundering money through my inheritance and sleeping with my replacement. He didn't even flinch when I showed him the evidence of his crimes. Instead, he grabbed me by the shoulders, smashed my phone, and shoved me out of his moving Lincoln into a midnight storm. I hit the wet pavement hard, my knees scraping against the asphalt as I watched him drive away, laughing about how I was a "dirt-poor exile" that nobody wanted. Within minutes, my credit cards were flagged as stolen and my father’s lawyers were drafting a statement calling me mentally unstable. I was left shivering in a puddle of oily sludge, wearing a ruined Chanel suit, with no money, no home, and no one to hear me scream. I couldn't understand how they could be so cruel. I was their flesh and blood, yet they treated me like a broken toy to be discarded in the trash. I was a "distressed asset" in a city that only valued gold. That’s when a black armored SUV pulled to the curb. King Wagner—the ruthless shark of Wall Street and Preston’s own uncle—looked at my muddy face with cold, calculating eyes. He didn't offer me pity; he offered me a leash. "You belong to me now," he whispered, pulling me into the dry warmth of his car. By the next morning, he had announced our engagement to the world, turning me into the very weapon that would slit my family's throat.

No Longer Your Spare Part: The Luna's Revenge

7.6

The drill's whine was the only thing in my world, vibrating through my skull and drowning out my own screams. I was strapped to a cold metal table, paralyzed by wolfsbane, while surgeons bored into my hip bone to siphon my essence. "Just a little more," the surgeon muttered. "Isabella needs the boost for the wedding photos." They weren't saving my sister's life. They were harvesting my marrow just to make her skin glow for a picture. I looked at the observation window, begging with my eyes. Dante, the Alpha I had dragged from the jaws of death, stood there. He wasn't looking at me. He was holding Isabella's hand. He didn't know I was the one who healed him. He believed her lies. "Take it all if you have to," Dante's voice drifted through our fading mate bond. "Don't let her fade." The drill punched through. My heart stuttered and stopped. I died on that table, a hollowed-out husk used to feed my sister's vanity. "Seraphina! Are you deaf?" A sharp voice snapped me back into existence. I gasped, clutching my hip. No blood. No drill. No pain. I looked at the calendar on my father's desk. I was alive. And I had exactly one year before the surgery that killed me. I looked at my trembling hands and felt the ancient anger of my White Wolf stirring. I wasn't going to be the sacrifice this time. I was going to be the arsonist.
