Revenge Was Her Final Vow

Synopsis: Diana, a twenty-nine year old brilliant young lady and a successful fashion designer. She was grateful she had been able to achieve everything she had without any support. But there was a void inside of her. She wanted to get married. She couldn't bear the fact of entering into the big chapter thirty without a life partner. She met David at a business conference meeting. He asked for her number. She hesitated thinking he wasn't going to stay like the others. She decided to give him a chance and went on a first date with him only to realise that he was serious and wanted to marry her. What Diana didn't know was that David was pretending all along. He was never interested in her as a person. During a public awards ceremony, David brings Eleanor, a celebrity who is his new business partner, onto the stage. He dedicates his award to her, claiming she was the "sole inspiration" for his success. Later that night, he tells Diana that he has already signed the divorce papers. His cold dismissal shatters her, but in the aftermath, a clear-headed determination sets in.

David Point of view

The document

I sighed deeply relieved that she had left the office. What was I thinking mixing up the document she was supposed to be working on?

I breathed deeply. She was so close to finding out.

I was glad she didn't find out. After seeing how desperate she wanted to get married.

I didn't hesitate to give her what she wanted.

Diana had been a faithful servant to me. Making sure all my business decisions are made with accuracy and ensuring that every deal I get is signed.

I scratched my head. I need a little bit of time to finalise everything and get rid of her.

She was too old for me. A thirty four year old woman.

I couldn't help coming home to her instead of my beautiful princess Eleanor.

To cope with staying with her I had to envision Diana as a maid. That way I wouldn't have to deal with the fact that she was living with me in the same house.

The thought of thinking about her saddened me so much that my face reddened like a tomato.

Eleanor walked into my office. She was wearing a red silky dress and packed her hair in a stylish bun just the way I like it.

She was my dream woman. A twenty-two year old college graduate and an aspiring model.

My true love. The woman I want to spend the rest of my life with.

She leaned over and brought down her dress to show her perky boobs.

My entire face lit up the moment she walked in.

Eleanor.

She moved like she owned the room-long legs, careless confidence, youth glowing off her skin like it was currency. Everything Diana no longer was.

"Did you miss me?" she asked, lips curving into that familiar, knowing smile.

"Of course I did," I murmured, my voice dropping instinctively.

She was my escape.

My reward.

The air that made suffocation bearable.

I didn't waste time. I cupped her face, smooth and warm beneath my palms, then pulled her closer by the waist. She fit perfectly there.

"What do you plan on getting me for my next birthday?" she asked, eyes sparkling with expectation.

I chuckled softly. God, I loved her audacity. Her hunger. She never pretended to be modest.

Instead of answering, I reached for the document Diana had stormed into my office with earlier. I handed it to Eleanor without ceremony.

She frowned. "What's this?" she asked, flipping through the pages carelessly.

"Take a proper look first, my love," I said, wrapping my arms around her from behind, my chin resting on her shoulder.

She huffed. "I was expecting a gold necklace... or maybe a trip to the Maldives."

I smiled to myself.

"This," I said calmly, "is your ticket to getting whatever you want. Necklace. Trips. Anything."

Her movements still.

"Really?" she breathed.

"Yes, babe." I kissed her softly, slow and deliberate.

She finally focused, eyes scanning the page-then widening.

Eleanor Williams.

C.E.O.

The fastest-rising fashion company in the country.

Her mouth fell open. "David... is this real?"

I stepped back, watching the disbelief bloom into excitement, then something sharper-ambition.

I dropped to one knee.

From my pocket, I pulled out a gold ring. Elegant. Expensive. Final.

"Eleanor," I said, voice steady, practiced, "will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?"

Her gasp was immediate. She didn't hesitate-not even for a second.

"Yes," she cried, already reaching for the ring. "Yes, I'll marry you!"

She laughed, breathless with triumph, then frowned suddenly. "What about... her?"

I scoffed.

"The old witch?" I said coldly. "I've wasted enough time."

I stood up, sliding the ring onto her finger.

"I'm divorcing her," I said simply. "Very soon."

Relief flooded her face. She threw her arms around my neck, kissing me deeply, possessively-like she had already won.

And she had.

Falling For The Most Hated Hollywood Girl

I was the adopted daughter of the wealthy Ruiz family, but the moment their true heir appeared, I was thrown away like trash. Not long after being kicked out, my adoptive father and uncle hired a hitman to stage a fatal car crash on Mulholland Drive. Pinned under an overturned Porsche with a shattered leg, I watched the hitman point a suppressed pistol between my eyes. "The Ruiz family sends their regards." Before this, my reputation had already been completely destroyed by a director, a pop idol, and a reality TV star, leaving me blacklisted and universally hated. My adoptive family didn't just want me ruined; they wanted me permanently silenced to tie up loose ends. The hitman pulled the trigger, and the original Alicia died in despair, tasting only rain and blood. Until her last breath, she didn't understand. Why did the family she loved treat her like a disposable object? Why did those three men maliciously frame her and turn the world against her? Opening my eyes again, the fear was gone, replaced by an ancient, cosmic indifference. I, the Arbiter, had taken over this deceased vessel. Moving faster than the human eye, I crushed the hitman's steel gun with my bare hand and turned his soul into dust. Looking at the memories of those who wronged this girl, I signed a contract for the very reality show they were starring in. Since I borrowed this body, taking out the trash is a required courtesy.

From Discarded Mate To Enemy's Gamma

For seven years, I was Alpha Zane’s Chosen Mate, suppressing my warrior instincts to be the docile, supportive partner he demanded. On our seventh anniversary, while I waited by a candlelit table, I accidentally overheard his mind-link with another woman. "Seven years is a habit, my dear, not love. She's docile, she'll understand." He told Seraphina, his new political ally, laughing as he dismissed my entire existence. I didn't scream or cry. I scraped the anniversary cake into the trash, drafted a formal rejection letter, and walked out of the packhouse. But Zane didn't even notice my departure. He was so consumed by his new lover that my rejection letter was treated as garbage and tossed into the incinerator. He paraded Seraphina around the pack, even handing my hard-earned strategic command over to her—a woman who knew absolutely nothing about war. When my loyal subordinates protested, he violently suppressed them, declaring my absence a "childish tantrum" and framing me as the bitter obstacle to his destined romance. He honestly thought I was just hiding in my room, waiting to beg for his charity and accept a humiliating demotion. He had no idea that I had already crossed the border into enemy territory. Tonight, I am attending his grand celebration. Not as the heartbroken mate he discarded, but as the newly appointed Gamma of his deadliest rival, the Sterling Pack.

The biopsy report slid across the cold metal desk, stamped with a brutal death sentence: advanced gastric cancer. Aretha had exactly ninety days left to live. It was her twenty-sixth birthday, but her phone only rang with a furious call from her husband, Anders. "Do you have any idea how much of a joke you made this family look like today? Post a public apology to Kelli right now." He had completely forgotten her birthday, only caring that she skipped her adopted sister's yacht party. When Aretha dragged her failing body back to the family estate, her biological mother slapped her across the face just for looking pale and embarrassing them in front of guests. Seeing Aretha wasn't submitting to the usual abuse, Kelli deliberately threw herself down the stairs, playing the innocent, depressed victim. Anders rushed in and shoved Aretha brutally against the wall to protect Kelli, while her biological father delivered his ultimate threat. "I am freezing your trust fund. Get on your knees and apologize to Kelli right now, or you won't see another dime." A massive, suffocating sense of absurdity washed over Aretha. She had spent six years lowering her head and begging for their approval, only to be treated like a disposable placeholder. Why should she spend her final days enduring this agonizing torture for people who didn't even care if she breathed? Aretha wiped the blood from her chin and laughed. She publicly severed all ties with her family, whipped the signed divorce papers directly at Anders's face, and walked out into the freezing storm—ready to fight for her own life.
