A dying wish has never been ignored, especially one for a second chance. ***** You know what's worse than death? Having the ones you trust the most, betray, forsake, and in the end kill you. All for money. In the past, Anna was labeled as boring, improper, incompetent and was killed by her very own husband and sister without a shred of remorse. Fortunately, the universe granted her a second chance and she was reborn four years in the past when she was unmarried, only this time with the knowledge of the future and the determination to get the revenge she deserves. And when her paths crossed with the rich, bastard and illegally gorgeous, Caspian Riordan who wasn’t just the emperor of the business world but also a stepping stone to her, she snatched him without a second thought. Everyone’s attention flocked toward him, all girls desired to be his, not Anna, not with the signature smirk he passed her every single time. At least, not until he became a stepping stone to her destination. “I’ll cut to the chase. How about, Mr. Riordan, you marry me instead of my sister.” But what happens when this man turns out to be the fantasy she never thought would become real?
View MoreFOURTEEN MONTHS LATER! The hall erupted in a loud thunder of applause as Wendy kissed her newly wedded husband, more like devoured his face. Anna was sure her clap and scream were the loudest as the priest pronounced the new couple, husband and wife. She hooted and applauded and made all the noises with Dali, Mia, and a few of their friends. They were all dressed in purple bridesmaid dresses, white heels, and a white butterfly hair clip on their heads. Well, it was all her idea. She’d practically planned the wedding. Wendy’s wedding came as a shock to everyone. Just months ago, she’d introduced them to Tory, and now, he was her husband. Their romance has caught everyone off guard and their sudden decision to tie the knot left no time to waste. Anna had single-handedly planned the wedding and she was the reason Wendy had chosen the pretty wedding dress that she wore. It literally made her look like a fairy tale princess. It was a dream wedding according to Wendy. Her big day. On A
Jason flipped the backpack and let the items in it scatter on the floor, the sound sending chills down Anna’s spine. She gasped as her eyes trailed from the thick white rope to sharp knives and then to a gas mask that lay limply on the floor. “What are you trying to do, Jason? Don’t you dare…”“Shut the fuck up.” He stormed toward her, bent to her size, and gripped her chin so hard that she heard the sound of her bones cracking and she let out a sharp cry. “I’m the one who has the upper hand here. I’m the one who should speak and not you, you fucking cunt.”“Ahh,” she cried when he gripped her chin tighter and forced her to gaze at him, tears beginning to stream down her cheek.“You think you can ruin my life and get away with it? You fucking ruined everyone’s lives and if it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have killed Elle!”Anna froze. Her eyes widened, Jason’s words echoing in her ears over and over again. She shook her head in denial as tears burst from her eyes. She didn’t want to b
“Fuck, is she dead?” Jason gasped as he stepped toward Elle and checked her pulse with his fingers. He froze and returned his gaze to the blonde. “She’s dead. Oh, fuck.” He clasped his hands around his mouth and rose from the floor, his eyes staring at the blonde in shock. “She was carrying my baby, Lia.”Lia rushed to his side in desperation and wrapped her hands around his arms. She didn’t carry the panic that Jason did. “Jason, if it's a baby that you want, I can give you one. Just forget about her, after all, she gave us a lot of trouble. It’s good riddance.”“What do I say to my mother? She spent a lot on the wedding and now, her daughter-in-law and grand baby are dead.” His legs trembled tremendously. “We’ll tell everyone that she slipped. She slipped while bathing. Wait..” their eyes widened at the sound of siren from outside. “Is that the police?”“Police? Who called them? Do you think it’s for us?”“Babe, do something.” Jason pushed the girl aside, threw his shirt and trous
The house was usually noisy. If they weren’t fighting, they were cooking foods that made her stomach churn and if not that, they were waiting for her with their hands on their hands on their hips. Fucking pathetic family! Now that she knew she might not live longer after birthing her baby, it was her turn to make their lives a living hell. As for her mother-in-law, she would make sure that the woman died way before her. Poisoning her tea wasn’t a bad idea, right? After all, she dared to hit her several times, forced her to stop eating much, and called her all sorts of names. She deserved to die. Elle held onto the paper tighter coupled with the small pack of poison that she’d bought on her way to the house and she stepped deeper into the house. It was only after she got to the room that she shared with Jason did she realized that indeed, there was no one at home. She dumped her bag on the floor and took exhausted steps that led her to the bed. She slumped on it, her breathing rough
For the rest of the day, Anna watched Caspian walk and other times took a tour of his office and the company and after the close of day, they both made their way out of the company hand in hand. “How about my car?” She asked when he opened the front passenger’s side of his favorite white Rolls Royce for her, the one that she’d stolen on the first day they met in this life. “I’ll ask someone to get it home.” Shrugging, Anna slipped into the car and he closed the door after her and walked around to get to the driver’s side. Just as the car began to move through the road, she felt a bile rise up her throat. Her hands immediately flew to her chest. Caspian cocked his head to the side, worry laced in his voice as he spoke. “What is wrong?”“I…I think I’m going to puke.” She brought a hand around her mouth and gestured with her hand that he stopped the car. The car immediately swerved to the side and stopped. “Puke, why?”She didn’t bother to answer him and opened the door and threw he
“The couple are hilarious as fuck,” Dali laughed with Anna as they both jumped into the car. “Did you see their faces? They looked like they were forced to get married.” Anna started the car and drove out of the wedding premises, her laughter all the while not dying down. “They were clearly forced.” It was clear as day. “And that gift, she’s going to be shocked as hell when she finds out.” It was her intention to get Elle to find out that the husband she just married was a stank ass useless bastard who couldn’t keep his dick in check. She’d only asked someone to trail the both of them a few days ago and to her surprise- not really a surprise though, he came back with pictures and videos of Jason’s infidelity which she printed out, boxed, and tied as a gift to Elle. What kind of man would cheat on the day before his wedding to a girl half as beautiful as his wife-to-be? Anna wasn’t going to act like it wasn’t disgusting to her like Elle was ugly or unattractive. She had a beauty th
When Anna was told that someone had to steal her ill fate for her to live longer, she didn’t think that she wouldn’t do a single work to get the person to steal her fate. All she had to do was push them together and fold her hands to watch the drama unfold before her eyes. It was the best part of the whole traveling back in time and revenge schemes. To sit back and witness the very people who’d caused her so much pain in the past steal her evil fate from her. It was, in its own way, a form of justice. Today, she watched as Elle took the part, walking down the aisle of the same hall where she’d gotten married to Jason in the past. Not only was her dress and jewelry identical, the hall too, its decorations and everything seemed identical. The man too.She sat at the back of the hall and her eyes burned with unshed tears as she watched the newlywed couple say their vows and pledge to love each other reluctantly. She knew the truth. Each word was a lie, a carefully constructed facade.
“The food,” Anna whined, holding his head away when their kiss became even more intense. She said that yet her legs wrapped around his waist, pulling him further into her to feel the hard rod that poked her. “The food can wait. I’ll reheat it after this.”He wound his hands on her ass and lift her up from the table. He pressed her against himself and caught her lips in his again as he began to lead them both to their bedroom. A kick from him sent the door opening as he got there and he gently dropped her on her feet. “You have five seconds to get to the bed before I lose my shit.” He began taking off his tie and kicking his shoes off his feet. Instantly, Anna nodded and hurried to the bed. But before she could get to the end, he caught up to her and threw her on the bed before getting in after her, looming over her. With his hands, he tugged off the top of her jumpsuit until the material bunched up on her waist. “No bra?” He raised a brow, his eyes on her perky red nipples that sto
Anna had never driven as fast as she did today in her entire life. She didn’t realize that her desire to see her husband was so strong until she got into her car and began the journey to their house. She sped past the cars on the road, realizing for the first time that she was at least a bit of an expert in driving. In a few minutes, she arrived at their private garage at the apartment building, parking her car amongst the others. She noticed that Caspian’s collection of cars had increased over the past few weeks. Her man was crazy about getting new cars every now and then. She wasted no time in throwing herself out of the car and raced into the building, to the elevator. Soon, she got to the door of their penthouse and swiped her card to open it. “Why is everywhere so dark?” A smile stretched on her lips when she opened the door only to be welcomed by darkness. Well, she hadn’t expected it. She felt something on her feet at the first step that she took and bending a bit to the f
“Jason? Elle?” Anna’s lips trembled as she watched her husband and his mistress, her very own sister scramble to grab their bathrobes, trying to hide their nakedness as their eyes fell on her “How could you two?” She wanted to believe that she was imagining things, that it was her mind playing games with her but the look on their faces crashed the truth of the situation over her. Elle’s fingers hurriedly tied the robe around her body and smothered her disheveled hair. “An…Anna,” she called, her eyes filled with tears. “I’m sorry.” “Sorry?” “Sister, please...” “Fucking say something.” Anna’s rage took over, her legs trembling. She needed someone to tell her it was a prank. She needed someone to tell her anything, just anything even if it was a lie. It was her baby shower/gender reveal party and she’d come in search of her husband only to hear them speak about their ploy against her in the bathroom. Elle stepped forward, wiping the fake tears from her cheeks. “Since y
