She rushed towards the stairs, her feet pounded against the wooden floor, but she could hear him storming after her. His steps conveyed his intention towards her, they were rapid and deadly.

"Don't do anything stupid, Nia," he hissed. She was about to run down the stairs, but he snatched her arm, and jerked it roughly.

His grip was painful, his eyes were cold and menacing. What hurt her more wasn't even his physical abuse, but the fact that he wasn't even feeling sorry.

"You're pathetic," he spat, his lips curled in disdain.

“Don't act like this is some big shock. Maybe if you actually took care of yourself, I wouldn't have had to find satisfaction elsewhere."

"So instead of coming to me, your wife to talk about our problems, you created even a bigger problem by sleeping with my best friend. Is this what you're saying?" She shouted in his face, him trying to justify his act only set her off the edge more, and something in her snapped.

Before she could think, her hand flew up and slapped him across the face.

The slap echoed sharply in the air, and for some seconds, he was utterly frozen in shock. But then he recovered, and his hand came down hard against her cheek.

Pain radiated through her as she stumbled, her balance wavered. She reached out instinctively, trying to grab something — anything to steady herself. Her fingers brushed against him, but instead of holding her steady, he shoved her away with all his strength.

Her world rocked...

The stairs rushed up to meet her as she tumbled. Her body twisted and slammed against the edges. The pain was immediate. Each step sent a jolt of agony through her. By the time she hit the bottom, she could barely breathe.

"Nia!"

She blinked through the different levels of pain, her vision swimming as Ares, Michael's brother, appeared above her.

This wasn't what he imagined coming to see when he accepted Nia's dinner invitation. Ares had expected champagne glasses and the aroma of food since Nia had invited him over to celebrate with them, but she was lying there like a broken glass instead.

He dropped to his knees beside her, his hands hovered with uncertainty as if afraid to touch her. His dark eyes were stormy with anger, his jaw tight, an unusual look for him.

"What the hell happened here?" Ares demanded, his voice sliced through the air.

"What happened?" Michael's voice came from the top of the stairs, dripping with contempt.

He started descending slowly, his face twisted into an infuriating smirk. "Why don't you ask her?"

"Don't," she whispered, her voice barely audible.

He reached the bottom of the stairs, standing naked and unashamed, his sneer deepened. "Don't buy into her act, Ares. She's nothing but a manipulative little bit—"

"That's enough!" Ares thundered and Michael's smirk faded, then he crossed his arms over his chest.

"Don't act all innocent, little brother," Michael said, his tone mocking. "You think I didn't notice the way you two used to look at each other? Always so cozy like a couple of lovesick teenagers."

"That's enough," Ares said through gritted teeth and a clenched fist.

"I always knew she was a slut." He spat as he glared down at her. "Hiding under the fact that you were former classmates and waiting for the right moment to whore herself out. Isn't that right, Nia? Or you think I don't know you've been fucking my brother?"

"How dare you?" she whispered. Her voice shook as she managed to get up from the floor.

He sneered, "Oh, don't play the victim. Let's not forget how this marriage even started."

Ares stiffened beside her, and his gaze shifted between them. She swallowed hard because the reality of their love clawed its way up her memory, up to the surface.

"You think I've forgotten what you did?" she shouted.

“You drugged me. You forced me into this marriage with you! Just because you wanted to be Alpha after my parents were gone. You blackmailed me!" she continued, the words poured out, raw and painful.

Her fists trembled at her sides. “You didn't give me a choice. You trapped me!"

For just one second, his smirk faded. But it came back even stronger, colder. "And yet, here we are. You said 'I do', didn't you? What does it matter now, your sob story?"

"It matters!" she hissed, tears streamed down her face. "It matters because I would never have chosen this life. I would never have chosen you!"

"Well," he said, "you're free to leave. Go ahead, take him with you. It's what you've always wanted, isn't it?"

"Nia," Ares said softly. His hand brushed her arm. "Let's go."

She thwarted his hand away and moved closer to Michael, "I reject you, Michael Hanover," she said, her voice trembled but firm.

“You're not my mate, and you never will be again. And you'll regret this." But her chest tightened as she looked around the house—the house that had once been her parents.

A gift they had given her before they passed. They were unsure about the marriage but still gave her their blessing. They didn't know she had no choice at all. Michael had her right where he wanted.

He followed her gaze. "Regret? No, Nia. I regret marrying you, but I don't regret using you as my pawn. Now get out of my house. Both of you!"

    “We want you to be happy, Nia. You have our blessing always. May the moon goddess bless you and your marriage.” The memory of her parent’s words echoed in her mind, their warm voices used to fill her with hope and love. But she let out a bitter laugh, her feet dragged along the dusty road as the sun was starting to go down in the sky. The golden glow casted down on her, but it only deepened the ache in her chest. They just wanted her to be happy, they thought she would be fine. But here she was—broken…. Her chest felt so tight it hurt to breathe. She clenched her hand into a small fist and hit her chest slowly, trying to ease the tension that gathered there, while her other hand gripped her waist as if holding herself from falling apart. Hiccups tore through her throat as she sobbed. “Does everything have to revolve around you? You’re such a slut.” Michael’s wicked words played like broken cassette in her head. She let out a small humorless, tear-filled laugh, more bitter th

    “Wait,” she stammered, her voice trembled. “Who…” But the man silenced her with a deep kiss, his lips engulfed hers as though he’d done it a thousand times before. Her body reacted instinctively, heat pooled in her stomach, but her mind screamed confusion. Her gaze darted around the room, trying to take in her surroundings. She was in a lavish bedroom, the air heavy with the scent of candles and vanilla, rose petals scattered across the floor. Everything screamed intimacy but she had no idea how she got there—or who this man was. Then it dawned on her, this wasn’t her life, it wasn’t her body, it was her first mission. His fingers found a nipple, pinching it lightly between his thumb and forefinger. Nia gasped into the kiss, it felt thrilling yet foreign to her. He released her lips , and his mouth found her neck where he licked at the sensitive skin. “You taste divine, Rosetta,” he murmured against her skin, his voice was thick with desire. “so sweet, so tempting.” Who wa

    “Ahmmmm…” Nia could only moan in response, her body still on edge with the after math of her orgasm. She wanted to say something, to tell him hw incredible he made this body feel, her new body, but her mind was in a haze with pleasure to even form words. All she could do was lie there, panting softly as he continued to feast on her. And then, just when she thought she might lose her mind from the endless teasing, he finally stopped, and pulled her into a warm embrace, engulfing her whole body completely in his with a satisfied smirk. “Not yet, love,” he said, his voice still showed he wanted more. “We’re not done yet, it’s your turn.” Her hands moved swiftly as he guided her hands towards his cock, the heat of his body radiated underneath the bedcovers. His eyes never left her, his eyes held hers in an intense gaze, as if he wanted to get lost in them. With a deep breath, she wrapped her hands around this thick shaft, almost gasping at his hardened length. It should feel strange

    “Hi-hide, you need to hide now” she wrapped the bedspread around her naked body as she sprung up, rushed to Eros side to hide him by the bulky curtains. “No, I don’t want to hide anymore, Rosetta. Let’s get this…” “I swear to the goddamn universe that I will kick this door down, Rosetta!” the duke continued hitting the door. Eros and nia struggled as she pushed him further behind the curtain, gazing frantically between the shaky hinges of the door and Eros. “Please, just please hide” she pleaded in desperate whispers, fear was evident in her gaze, and Eros gave a slight nod in defeat. The door flung open with a loud crack, slamming against the wall, and Nia’s heart dropped. The Duke stood there, his eyes bloodshot and raging, his frame filled the doorway like darkness waiting to engulf her. “My lord…” she began shakily, clutching tightly the bed sheet around her shaky body. Before she could utter another word, his hand shot out, gripped her throat and shoved her back o

    Her hips moved voluntarily against his hand, her body begged for more despite how she fought to remain silent. She gave a shy nod, her cheeks heated up with both shyness and arousal. A playful smirk hung by the corner of his lips, his teeth grazed her nipple again as his fingers slipped between her clit.“So wet for me already,” he whispered, “I want you fuck you senseless my darling, Rose…” his tongue came out to lick her earlobe, she could feel his hardened cock tracing along her stomach. Nia could feel the walls around her pussy clench with need, his words were getting her soak that she’d soon be dripping on the sheets, yes she wanted him to fuck her to tears, she wanted to forget she had a shitty husband; she wanted to forget that she was Nia.She wanted to give herself away and give in to this new body, and this was her petty revenge, fucking the duke’s brother senseless while on punishment was the nicest thing the duke ever made happen to her.“Then fuck me, Eros.

    “You’re not the Rosetta I know,” Eros said, his voice low but sure, his eyes narrowed slightly as if he was trying to reveal her true self. Her heart seized in panic. Has he figured it out? Did I give something away? A thousand thoughts raced through her mind as she stared back at him, her lips parted as if to speak, but no words came. Before she could respond, he moved closer, his hand slid up her back to pull her against him. His lips brushed her ear, his breath warm and tempting. “I like it,” he murmured, his voice softer now. “This part of you, that craves me so badly, unlike before. I love it.” Nia’s body relaxed slightly, but her mind was still spinning. He doesn’t know. He just thinks…he thinks I’ve changed. Relief flooded her, but it was quickly overshadowed by guilt. She wasn’t Rosetta. She wasn’t the woman he thought he was falling for. Even though she was beginning to enjoy this newly found love the moon goddess has given to her, she couldn’t help but think she was

    “I couldn’t care less how she would feel,” his tone was cold, empty of any tenderness she was used to.“We just need to get our hands on the fortune, she’s a tiny problem.” The words rammed into her chest like a physical blow. She staggered back a step, her hand flew to her mouth to stifle the gasp that threatened to escape.“No…No… noo” she whispered, as her heart shattered into a million pieces. This can’t be real. He doesn’t mean it, Eros wouldn’t say that about me. Her mind raced as the weight of Eros words crushed her completely. The man who had whispered promises to her, who had begged her to stay with him forever, was now plotting with his brother against her. History was repeating itself, her best friend Zora killed her, and now Eros was being two faced, what if things changed and he poisons her instead. Hiccups threatened to tear through her as she struggled to hold her tears, she clenched her heart painfully as air got trapped in her lungs.For a moment, she thought she

    He crashed his lips on hers again, this time more needy, as his hands gripped her thighs, spreading them wider. She could feel the bulge in his trousers pressing against the entrance of her pussy, and an enthusiastic shiver ran through her.“Are you wet for me, my darling Rose?” he murmured against her neck, his teeth grazed the delicate skin there. She nodded, unable to form words as his fingers slipped beneath the lace of her panties, finding her dripping cunt. “goddd..” he groaned, his thumb rubbed circles around her clit as her two fingers plunged deep inside her. “Fuck, you’re so tight,” he growled, pumping his fingers faster, deeper. “E-Eros….” Nia cried out, her head fell back as pleasure swept over her. Her nails dug into his shoulders, drawing faint red lines in his skin.“Please,” she begged, her voice cracked with need. “I need you.” He didn’t hesitate, his bulge grew harder. In one swift action, he ripped her panties off, and tossed them aside before fumbling with

    “The Elysian Art event” The moment Nia stepped into the grand, dimly lit venue, she felt the weight of every eye on her. The gallery echoed with soft conversations, champagne glasses clinking, and the quiet admiration of art. Paintings and sculptures were arranged elegantly , their creators stood proudly beside them, eager to secure a wealthy buyer when the event starts. Her gaze moved across the room, taking in the familiar environment . From Sera’s scattered memories, she could recall this was Julien’s guilty pleasure—an exclusive art pop-up event that only the elite had access to. It was held every three months, always in a big secretive location, a gathering where art was not just admired but treated like a weapon—bought, claimed, and manipulated. And Julien thrived in it. He didn’t just collect art. He consumed it. Bought pieces from struggling or promising artists only to repaint them, to reshape them, to strip them of their identity but not to make them his own

    “Please, I can’t. it’s too much—” Julien’s response was a low, possessive growl, his pace quickened as if her plea only fueled him further. “You can take it,” he snarled, as he leaned over her, his lips brushed against her ear as he spoke. “You’ll take everything I give you, Sera. Because you’re mine. You belong to me.” His hips snapped forward, as he drove into her with a force that made her cry out, her nails dug into the edges of the counter. But it wasn’t enough for him. Not tonight. He needed to see her, to look into her eyes as he claimed her. With a swift, almost violent motion, he flipped her onto her back, her legs instinctively wrapped around his torso as he carried her with him, and pinned her against the wall. The impact knocked the breath from her lungs, but before she could even gasp, his cock buried inside her again, thrusting into her with an intensity that left her clawing at the wall for support. “Look at me,” Julien commanded, his voice dark and demandin

    Nia’s breath seized as his fingers teased her, circling her clit with a slow, maddening control. She moaned, the sound escaping her lips in a low, desperate whimper. Her hands clung to his shoulders, her nails digging into his skin as if she were afraid he might pull away. “Please,” she begged, her voice trembling. “Don’t stop.” Julien’s eyes darkened, his gaze locked on hers as he continued to toy with her. “I won’t,” he murmured, his voice a low, possessive growl. I’ll never stop, Sera. You’re mine. His words sent a shiver down her spine, a mix of fear and excitement coursing through her veins. She knew she should be scared, should push him away, but her body betrayed her, arching into his touch, craving more. Julien’s other hand moved to her waist, his fingers tightening around her as he leaned in, his lips brushing against her neck. “You’re so beautiful, he whispered, his breath hot against her skin. “I can’t get enough of you.

    Julien took a slow step forward, his right hand up in front of the gun in surrender as his voice dropped to a low whisper, “What if I make you a deal?” Miguel’s brow arched, and his grip on the gun shook. Eventually the sleek barrel dipped slightly, no longer aimed at Julien’s head. “I’m listening.” Julien exhaled, and stole a quick glance at Nia. “Let someone else replace her at the pop-up. I’ll double whatever you make.” A low chuckle rumbled from Miguel’s chest. “It seems your man here has money to squander,.” His eyes slid to Nia, his lips curled into a smirk. “But I’m not cheap, Julien.” Julien heaved, trying to gather his composure before his gaze landed on Miguel again . “What more do you want?” Miguel tapped the barrel of the gun against his temple pretending to think , his lips twitched then, his smile widened. “She shows up for the next one.” Julien’s hands instinctively balled into fists, Nia fingers dig into her palm, she could sense that it was taking every

    “J-julien” Nia’s breath came in ragged gasps as she rocked back and forth over the balcony railing, her spine bent at an unnatural angle. The pressure of Julien’s grip around her throat was unbearably, possessive, terrifyingly familiar.But she just got here, she couldn’t just die immediately? She knew she was failing her mission woefully, and if died right now then it makes things worse.She had only collected one energy so far, how would she bring Ares back if all she was doing is get carried away? Images flashed in her mind, Her head slammed against the stone —Seraphine’s laughter, her whispered confessions, her body pressed against Julien’s in love and war. She could see herself living all of Seraphine’s moments, And then the memory of falling—arms flailing, air rushing past her, the brutal snap of her skull against pavement.If she couldn’t get herself out of this mess, then it would happen again.But this time, she wasn’t Seraphine.She was Nia.And she was going to feel the

    Her vision blurred, her body felt weightless, free. Distantly, she heard the sharp crack of another gunshot, the bullet lodge in her chest again. “No!!!” Massimo shouted, in anger he brought out his gun and started shooting towards where the shot came from randomly, impulsively, in pain. His front door busted open and his men rushed in, they froze instinctively at the sight in front of them. His gaze darted back to her, with shaky hands pressing against her wound, warm blood pooled between his fingers as he tried to hold her together. “Bambina,” Massimo rasped, his voice breaking. “Stay with me.” Her lips parted, but no sound came. Instead blood spluttered from her mouth, her chest heaved slowly, her pulse was getting weaker and weaker. So this was how their story ends? She had thought they’d be more of Bonnie and Clyde, but the Romeo and Juliet ending wasn’t something she quite expected. “Stay with me, bambina,” he pleaded, his gaze held hers, pressing his forehead to

    Massimo’s voice was raw, His knees hit the floor with a dull thud, and for the first time, he looked… breakable. The predator, the monster, the man who ruled with an iron grip—he was kneeling before her like a sinner at the altar. “I owe you, bambina,” he rasped, his breath uneven. “I owe you for the life I stole, for the hatred you carry.” Nia’s hands trembled at her sides, she had never seen this side of him, wait why? Why all of a sudden, what did he owe? Was he actually feeling guilty for killing isabel’s parents. Her heart pounded like violent storm against her chest. This was the closest thing to remorse she had ever seen in his cold, ruthless eyes. But it confused her , one minute he wanted to blow her head off for her supposed betrayal, and now…. Her chest heaved as she took in his vulnerable state, tears hung at the corner of her eyes as she slowly knelt in front of him. She wanted to comfort him, but right now she had to be Isabel, Not Nia. “You didn’t just steal my
