But there was none. “You can’t… you can’t do this to me,” he choked out, but the officer just chuckled, straightening up. “Goodbye, Victor,” the police officer said, his tone filled with finality. “May you feel every second of wha

The Billionaire Substitute Wife
“Do you know why he married you?”
Her smile was cruel, her blind eyes staring straight through me. “Because you’re wearing my eyes and he promised to protect them.”
My breath caught, but she wasn’t done. She leaned closer, as she whispered in my ears
“Face it, Olivia. You’re nothing but my replacement.”
Leonard always seemed like the perfect husband, until she woke from her five-year coma and shattered my world with the truth.
He married me for my eyes. Eyes that once belonged to her. I should have known his overprotectiveness wasn’t love, it was guilt. And now, with a life growing inside me, I realized I wasn’t just a substitute wife. I was a placeholder in a story that was never mine to begin with.
Shattered and pregnant, I disappeared, leaving behind the man who never truly saw me and a secret he never knew existed.
Years later, I return. No longer his fragile, obedient wife, but a woman with a new name, a hidden son, and a plan to ruin the billionaire who broke me.
But in a game where love and vengeance collide, the most dangerous twist isn’t my fury it’s the fire that never died between us.
He made me a substitute. Now, I’ll make him suffer.

Chapter: Chapter 26: Morning DramaOlivia’s POVMy body still ached, a slow, deep throb between my thighs, marking every place Leonard had claimed me. I shifted slightly, feeling the soreness in my muscles, the overwhelming presence of him still lingering on my skin.A low hum rumbled beside me.“Morning, my beautiful wife. I know you had a good night's rest ,” Leonard murmured, his voice thick with sleep and satisfaction.I tried to slip out from under his arm, but he moved faster, gripping my waist and pulling me back against him. His bare chest pressed against my back, solid and warm.“Where do you think you’re going?” he murmured against my ear. His lips barely grazed my skin, his breath sending shivers down my spine.I swallowed hard, refusing to react. “Away from you.”He chuckled, deep and rich. “That’s cute, sweetheart.”I shoved at his arm, but he barely budged, only tightening his hold around me.“You weren’t saying that last night,” he teased, his fingers trailing up my thigh beneath the sheets. “In fact, if

Chapter: Chapter 25: A Husband TouchOlivia’s POVDamn. It had been so long since I allowed him to touch me, not because I didn’t want to, but because of everything that had been going on in our lives. But now… now I couldn’t hold back anymore.Oh, I missed his touch. His lips on my skin. The way he worshipped my body like he was born to ruin me.Yes, I knew I was pregnant, but I also knew Leonard wasn’t rough, even though I have not told him about the child yet.. I knew everything would be fine. I stood there, bare, vulnerable, my heart hammering against my ribs as he devoured me with his eyes. His jaw flexed, his entire body wound tight like a predator about to pounce.His voice came low and filled with hunger. “Come here.”I swallowed hard, but I obeyed. My feet moved before my mind could process it, and then, God, I was in his arms, his strong, warm hands gripping my waist, pulling me flush against him.A sharp breath left me as his lips ghosted over the shell of my ear. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for thi

Chapter: Chapter 24: I Saved My FatherOlivia’s Point of ViewLeonard’s fingers moved swiftly over his phone as he recalled the number. I could barely breathe as the call connected. My hands trembled, my chest rising and falling in shallow, uneven breaths.A gruff voice answered almost immediately. “Time’s ticking, Leonard Crawford, What’s it gonna be?”I felt the air leave my lungs. My knees nearly buckled, and before I could stop myself, a broken sob ripped from my throat.“No! Please,” I begged, gripping the edge of Leonard’s sleeve. My voice was raw, desperate. “Don’t kill him! I will do anything. Please!”Leonard didn’t even glance at me. His jaw flexed, his grip on the phone tight, but his voice….oh God, his voice….was pure steel. It was terrifying, cold and sharp all at once. “Enough with the threats,” he said, his tone unwavering. “I’ll pay off the debt.”I gasped, my lips parting as I looked at him, wide-eyed. Just like that. He said it like it was nothing. Like one million dollars meant nothing to him.Silenc

Chapter: Chapter 23: Save My FatherOlivia’s Point of View“How? How in God’s name are you owing someone one million dollars?” My voice cracked as I clutched the phone, my hands shaking so violently I could barely hold it. My entire body was trembling, my heart hammering against my ribs like it was trying to escape. “Father… how? What did you do with that much money?”I was already sinking, my knees giving out as I collapsed onto the floor. My breathing was shallow, my vision blurred. A million dollars. It wasn’t a small debt. It wasn’t something I could fix with my savings, or even a miracle. It was too much. Too damn much.My father’s broken sobs filled the line. “Olivia… my daughter… please, forgive me,” he choked out. “I….I used the money for gambling.”I froze. My fingers tightened around the phone as nausea surged in my stomach. No. No, this can’t be real.“What?!” My voice shot up, raw and strangled.“I just…..I just thought I could win more.” His breath was uneven, each word coming out like it hurt. “I never

Chapter: Chapter 22: Please Don’t Hurt HimOlivia’s Point of ViewI took a shaky breath, my chest rising and falling as I stared up at my husband, the man I had loved for so long, the man I had given everything to.And yet, I had nothing left. I lifted my hands, cupping his face gently, my fingers trembling against his skin. My vision blurred with unshed tears, my throat tightening as I looked into his eyes.“Oh, my dear Leonard. My dear husband.” My voice was barely above a whisper, heavy with pain. “How much I love you. But I can’t anymore. I am doing this. I am done, Leonard.”His breath hitched, his hands tightening around my wrists, holding me in place, as if he could stop me from leaving. As if I wasn’t already gone.“Can’t you see it?” My voice wavered as I searched his face, begging him to understand. “The love you show her? It’s in your actions, Leonard. It’s always been there.”He shook his head quickly, his grip firm, but I continued.“If we were both at gunpoint, you would pick her. I know it. Your actions have al

Olivia.” I ran a hand down my face, my patience hanging by a thread. “What on earth is wrong with you both? What the hell is going on here?”It was always something. If I left them alone for even a second, it was like they couldn’t breathe without wanting to rip each other apart.Before Olivia could speak, Elena moved first.As if on cue.Her small hands clutched my shirt, trembling slightly, her head ducked, tears falling like she had just been through a war.“Oh, Leo, you’re here,” she whispered, her voice breaking as she sniffled.I sighed. Here we go.“I didn’t mean to upset her,” she continued, stammering, her voice soft, weak, delicate.She burrowed herself into my chest, shaking slightly as I instinctively brought a hand up to stroke her hair.“I was just….” she sniffled, her fingers curling into

Chapter: A Game Played RightHis eyes, hooded and unreadable, were pinned on her like she was something to be studied, dissected, and devoured all at once. Sky could feel it-his gaze-a slow caress over her skin, setting off a shiver that had nothing to do with the cold.She tilted her head back, gripping the stem of her wine glass a little tighter than necessary, as if it was the only thing tethering her to reality. "How did you meet my brother?"Such a simple inquiry. Innocent, even. But it wasn't.Her lips parted slightly, her breath coming in shallow waves as she stared at the words scrawled in the chest. It should have been easy to answer, but the truth held too many jagged edges. She wasn't ready to open up. Not to Elijah. Not to a man she barely knew-a man she had literally spewed her drink on hours ago.But there was something about him. Something that pulled at her in a way she couldn't quite name.Her throat bobbed as she swallowed, her fingers tracing the rim of her glass.Elijah, meanwhile, had not st

Chapter: Away From HimSkye's heart pounded against her ribcage, her breath coming in fast, uneven gasps as she clutched Elijah's hand, her fingers squeezing him like a lifeline. The thrill of their escape still coursed through her veins, adrenaline pumping wildly, making her skin feel electric."I can't believe we escaped the guards!" she burst out, her voice breathless yet laced with excitement, her chest rising and falling rapidly as she struggled to catch her breath. Elijah, on the other hand, stood beside her, a slow, knowing smirk curling his lips as he observed her reaction. He was calm-too calm, like this was just another night for him. His dark, hooded eyes studied her intently, flickering with amusement as he leaned against the nearest wall, hands tucked casually into his pockets. The contrast between them was stark-Skye, wild with exhilaration, and Elijah, exuding an almost predatory ease."Did you see my face when I thought the guards would catch us?" she stammered between her laughter, wiping

Chapter: He Would Kill Anyone That Touches HerXavier paced like a caged beast, his movements restless, agitated. His fingers repeatedly tangled in his dark hair, first smoothing it back, then gripping at the strands as though the act would steady his rage. His jaw was clenched so tightly it ached, his tongue pressing against the roof of his mouth in an effort to contain the storm brewing within him. His entire body was taut with tension, muscles coiled like a predator ready to pounce.His sharp blue eyes-cold and calculating-remained locked on the restroom door. What the fuck was taking her so long? His gut twisted with unease, an unfamiliar and unwelcome sensation that only served to further stoke his fury. She wouldn't dare try anything stupid... would she? The thought made his chest tighten.He wanted to storm in there, to slam the door open and drag her out if necessary. But Xavier knew better. That wouldn't be the smart move. He needed to keep his composure-or at least what was left of it. He ran a hand down his face, exhal

Chapter: She Met His Twin Brother Skye reached the restroom, shoving the door open with trembling hands. Her breath came in ragged gasps as she stumbled toward the sink, clutching its edge for support. She met her reflection in the mirror, her face pale, her mascara smudged from the tears she hadn't even realized were falling. Her carefully arranged hair now hung in disarray, framing her tear-streaked cheeks.The quiet sobs she had been holding back finally broke free, shaking her body as she leaned over the sink. "This was supposed to be my day," she whispered bitterly to herself, her voice breaking. "My wedding day."Skye leaned against the restroom sink, her body trembling as her sobs quieted. She wiped at her face, smearing the tears that had already ruined her carefully applied makeup. All she wanted was to leave this nightmare behind, to slip out of her wedding gown and crawl into bed, where the weight of Xavier's fury and the humiliating scene from the ballroom couldn't reach her. Her exhaustion pressed down

Chapter: A Scene In The Wedding Reception She took a deep breath, her nails biting into her palms as she tried to center herself. Not here. Not now. If they wanted her to break, they would have to try harder. Skye was no stranger to being underestimated, and she wasn't about to let them win-not tonight, not ever.Her gaze wandered back to Xavier, who was watching her from across the room. His expression was unreadable, but his piercing blue eyes bore into her like a storm waiting to be unleashed. Had he heard any of it? Did he even care? She doubted it.Straightening her shoulders, she grabbed another glass of champagne from a passing waiter and downed it in one fluid motion. She welcomed the burn as the liquid slid down her throat, using it as fuel to fortify her crumbling walls. If this was her new reality, then so be it.But one thing was certain: she wasn't going to be a passive pawn in their cruel games. They wanted a fight? She'd give them a fight. She tilted her head back, the fifth glass of champagne slipping past her

Chapter: The Deal With The Devil"She's stunning," one woman admitted begrudgingly, but her compliment was overshadowed by venom. "But can you believe she's marrying Xavier Colleen? "What could she possibly see in him?""Oh, come on," another chimed in, leaning closer to her gossip partner. "You haven't heard the real story? She left her fiancé-someone just as rich, if not richer-for him. I mean, Xavier is a catch, sure, but everyone knows how he treats his women. Rumor has it, she couldn't resist his... well, you know." She giggled, her tone dripping with malice. "Bet she's addicted to him already."The words stabbed at Skye like needles, but she didn't falter. Her jaw clenched imperceptibly, and she kept her gaze locked forward, refusing to give them the satisfaction of seeing her react. Let them talk. Let them have their pathetic little gossip. She was no stranger to it-her life had been a spectacle ever since she agreed to this arrangement. But the raw, personal nature of their whispers still burned. How the he
