Betrayed. Abandoned. And Avenged with Triumph. When I married Damian Carter, I believed in forever. In loyalty. In love that withstands time, success, and hardship. I was the woman who stood beside him when he was nothing, who helped him build his empire, who sacrificed everything so he could become the man he always wanted to be. And when he finally got there—when he was rich, powerful, untouchable—he threw me away like last night’s mistake. He didn’t just cheat. He rewrote our story, twisting the truth until I was nothing more than a pathetic, useless wife clinging to his fortune. The world believed him. My own family doubted me. I lost everything. But they were all wrong about me. I didn’t break. I didn’t shatter. I rebuilt. With the help of a man who saw me for who I really was, I built my own empire. I exposed Damian’s secrets, stripped away his power, and took back everything they said I never could. And when he came crawling back, whispering apologies, asking for another chance—his voice trembling with regret—I simply smiled. Because I wasn’t that woman anymore. And more than that, I had finally found a man who never needed to lose me to understand my worth.

Once a Fool, Now a Queen Aurora Sinclair’s POV ⸻ A Celebration Turned to Ruin The champagne bottle was chilled, the crystal flutes gleamed under the soft golden lights of the suite, and the scent of roses—his favorite, white and delicate—filled the air. I had spent weeks planning this. Five years of marriage deserved a celebration, especially after everything we had been through. Damian had been distant lately, stressed, he said. Work was demanding. His company was expanding, and his attention was being pulled in every direction. I understood. I had always understood. So tonight, I wanted to remind him. Of us. Of what we had built together. The concierge had handed me the key with a knowing smile, assuming I was another woman surprising her husband in the most romantic way possible. He had no idea how right—and how devastatingly wrong—he was. The suite do...

Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻The World Takes His SideThe rain hadn’t stopped when I found myself outside Celeste’s apartment, drenched and shaking.She pulled me in without a word, wrapping a thick blanket around my shoulders. I must have looked like a ghost—hollow, broken, nothing like the woman I had been just hours ago.But Celeste wasn’t one for empty sympathy. She sat across from me, arms crossed, her dark eyes sharp. “You need to check your phone.”I had ignored it all night. It was buried deep in my bag, vibrating incessantly.Now, with unsteady hands, I pulled it out.And the world collapsed all over again.BREAKING NEWS: DAMIAN CARTER FILES FOR DIVORCE—AURORA SINCLAIR’S FALL FROM GRACEINSIDERS REVEAL: AURORA CARTER NEVER CONTRIBUTED TO HER HUSBAND’S SUCCESSTHE TROPHY WIFE WHO NEVER EARNED HER CROWNThe headlines screamed at me, each one crueler than t

Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻The flash drive sat in the palm of my hand, a deceptively ordinary object carrying the weight of something far more dangerous.I plugged it into Celeste’s laptop, my breath tight in my throat.And then I saw it.Spreadsheets of transactions that didn’t add up. Wire transfers moving through shell companies with vague, meaningless names. Large sums disappearing and reappearing in accounts overseas.It was clear: Damian had been laundering money.I clenched my jaw, scrolling through pages of evidence. Every email, every manipulated invoice—it was all there, hidden in plain sight.A cold, bitter laugh escaped me.For years, Damian had called me useless. A liability. A gold digger who contributed nothing.But I had built him. I had stood by his side, supported him, helped him make decisions that propelled his company forward.And now? Now

Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻I didn’t blink. Didn’t look away.Killian Wolfe wasn’t a man who made casual offers.If he was here, speaking to me like this, it meant he had already calculated his risks. He had already decided I was useful.The question was—useful for what?I set my empty glass down and met his gaze. “Who are you, Killian?”He smirked, slow and deliberate, as if I had just asked a foolish question.“You already know,” he said simply.His confidence was maddening, but he wasn’t wrong.Killian Wolfe was a name spoken in hushed tones in the corridors of power. An investor whose touch turned businesses into gold, whose partnerships were as rare as they were deadly.And he was Damian’s rival.Which made him dangerous to me.I leaned back, folding my arms. “Why are you here?”His fingers tapped lazily against his glass. “Becau

Chapter 5
Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻I had never been one to hesitate.But as I stared at my phone, Killian’s number glowing on the screen, my fingers hovered over the call button.I knew what this meant.Accepting his offer wasn’t just about revenge. It was about power. About stepping into an arena where men like Damian and Killian thrived—and proving I could do the same.And I would.With or without Killian Wolfe.I pressed dial.He picked up on the second ring. “Aurora.”No pretense. No small talk.“I’ll do it,” I said. “But on my terms.”Silence. Then a low chuckle. “I was hoping you’d say that.”Of course he was.Killian never made an offer he wasn’t certain would be accepted.I tightened my grip on the phone. “I don’t want to be your pawn, Killian. If we do this, we do it as equals.”Another pause. This one longer.

Once a Fool, Now a Queen Aurora Sinclair’s POV ⸻ The second I stepped into the ballroom, silence rippled through the crowd like a shockwave. Eyes turned. Conversations stuttered. And then—Damian saw me. I caught the flicker of surprise in his expression before he masked it with that smug indifference I once mistook for charm. Too late. He had already given himself away. I descended the marble staircase, the slit of my black satin gown parting just enough to command attention but never to beg for it. Every detail had been calculated—my posture, my walk, the deep crimson of my lips. I wasn’t here to blend in. I was here to make him remember. Killian had warned me. Make them doubt their version of you. And judging by the way Damian’s jaw tensed, I was succeeding. Celeste, standin

Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻I should’ve known Damian wouldn’t take my victory at the gala lightly.Powerful men like him didn’t lose. They retaliated.The first sign came the next morning.Celeste called me, her tone sharp. “Aurora, something’s wrong.”I sat up in bed, my stomach twisting. “What happened?”“I reached out to a few investors who seemed interested last night. Every single one of them suddenly pulled back.”I inhaled sharply. “Damian.”“Of course it’s Damian,” she muttered. “He’s making calls, using every connection he has to shut doors in your face.”I clenched my jaw. I should’ve expected this.Damian never played fair.And now, he was making sure I knew it.⸻I met Killian that evening in his penthouse office, the city lights casting long shadows over the room.He leaned against his desk, watching me with

Chapter 8
Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻I wasn’t going to destroy Damian by becoming him.I was going to destroy him by being smarter.And that meant playing the long game.I scrolled through my contacts, my fingers hesitating over a name I hadn’t spoken in years. Eleanor Hawthorne.She was a legend in the business world. Ruthless. Unyielding. And once upon a time, she had been Damian’s mentor—until he betrayed her to take over her company’s biggest deal.If anyone had a reason to hate him as much as I did, it was Eleanor.I took a breath and hit call.The line rang once. Twice. Then—“Aurora Sinclair,” a voice purred on the other end. “Didn’t think I’d ever hear from you.”“I think we have something in common,” I said smoothly. “A certain man who thinks he’s untouchable.”There was a beat of silence. Then, a low chuckle. “I’m listening.”⸻Elean

Chapter 9
Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻If I was going to take Damian down, I needed to know exactly where his power came from. And more importantly—who was keeping him on top.I spent the next week doing what I should have done years ago. I dissected every piece of Damian’s empire. His investors, his legal team, the men who owed him favors and the ones who feared him too much to speak against him.I wasn’t alone in this.Celeste had a gift for uncovering skeletons people thought were safely buried. She spent days combing through financial records, real estate holdings, and offshore accounts.And then, one night, she called me.“I found something,” she said, her voice edged with excitement. “Something big.”Within the hour, we were sitting in her apartment, a thick folder spread across her coffee table.“What am I looking at?” I asked, flipping through the documents.“Shell compani

Once a Fool, Now a QueenAurora Sinclair’s POV⸻The invitation came in the form of a single black card, embossed with gold lettering.The Augustine ClubExclusive Investor’s Circle | By Invitation OnlyI didn’t need to ask how Killian had gotten me in. I knew what kind of doors he could open with a mere whisper of his name. But the real question was—why?I found him waiting in the hotel lounge, dressed in a perfectly tailored charcoal suit, the crisp lines emphasizing his broad shoulders and the raw confidence he carried so effortlessly.“You clean up well,” I said, sliding into the seat across from him.Killian smirked, sipping his whiskey. “And you look like you’re ready to conquer an empire.”I was. The fitted black dress hugged my curves, the diamond drop earrings adding just enough edge to make me look expensive—untouchable.Because tonight, I wasn’t Damian Sinclair’s ex-wife. I was A
