Chapter One

I never meant to find it. A small, unassuming notebook, buried deep inside a drawer I had no reason to open. But now, with its weight in my hands, I hesitated.“This wasn’t mine to read.” the thoughts rushed into my head, yet, something told me… I had to.Five years had come and gone, yet I remained stuck in place, watching life move forward without me. Seasons changed, people grew, but I stayed behind—held captive by a memory that refused to fade. You were always there, lingering in the quiet moments, in the spaces between my thoughts. I still felt you, like a whisper against my skin, like a ghost I couldn’t let go of.Standing by your grave, the truth pressed down on me like an unbearable weight. You were gone. Not missing, not away—just… gone. My fingers traced over the cold letters of your name, the only part of you left in this world. I set down a handful of blue tulips, my silent way of saying what my heart screamed every day. I still love you. I always will.David had never spo

Chapter Two

David didn’t stay long at the dining table. I wasn’t expecting him to. Everyone knew David Smith was a busy man.The moment his plate was empty, he stood up, brushing his hand against his perfectly pressed slacks as if he were wiping away any remaining crumbs of obligation toward me. “If you need to go out, the drivers are available. Just let them know,” he said, his voice carrying that same indifferent tone from earlier, as though I was just another business deal that needed occasional check-ins.I didn’t respond. Not because I didn’t have words, but because there was no point. What would I say? Thank you for your generosity, dear husband, for allowing me, your not-wife, to use your many cars?I focused on the pancakes still on my plate as he walked out, his expensive leather shoes making no sound against the polished floors.The moment the door clicked shut behind him, I exhaled, a slow, steady breath I hadn’t even realized I was holding.The house was silent again, swallowing me wh

Chapter Three

The silence in the room felt heavier than before. I wiped my face quickly as if erasing the tears would also erase the frustration twisting inside me. David had come and gone in seconds, barely acknowledging my presence. Again.I sank back onto the couch, gripping the edge of my dress. What was I even expecting? A conversation? A sign that he actually saw me?The air felt thick with unsaid words, and I knew if I sat in this silence any longer, it would swallow me whole. Pushing myself up, I took a deep breath, forcing steadiness into my steps as I made my way to my room.“At least in my own room, I can find some peace,” I thought, the ache in my chest deepening. If my supposed husband didn’t care, then what was the point of hoping for more? I pulled the covers over me, curling into myself as the weight of loneliness settled in. The moment my head touched the pillow, sleep claimed me, offering the only escape I had left.*******************“Hello, madam… madam, hello…”The voice echoe

Chapter Four

"You’ll never be her."The words resounded in my head like a curse, slicing deeper with every repetition. I wasn’t sure if it was the wind that made me shiver or the truth that had finally sunk in. My fingers trembled as I pushed through the mansion’s heavy doors, my heart pounding so loudly it drowned out everything else.David was still at the graveyard, kneeling and still grieving. But not for me. “Why would he?” The demon in my head talked again. “You guys literally just met, and you know the marriage was just to save yourself.”“I fucking know…I do, but not to the extent that I will never matter to him. He will never really see me.” I responded loudly to my demon as a bitter laugh bubbled up my throat, but I swallowed it down. I wouldn’t cry. Not here. Not now.I needed to leave.Gripping my phone, I scrolled to the only person I could trust—Ella."Where are you?"I hit send, my pulse racing as I made my way toward the garage. If David could lose himself in his past, then I had e

Chapter Five

The music pounded like a second pulse under the floor, heavy, messy, loud. Strobe lights flickered across bodies that didn’t care who watched. Glasses clinked. People laughed. Drinks spilled. But all of that disappeared the second I saw him leaning on the bar like he owned the damn building. He looked the same and worse. Arrogant. Surrounded by loud, shallow men who laughed too hard at nothing. His eyes found me in seconds. And then, that smirk. That slow, venom-coated smirk that always came before something vile.“Oh, look who it is,” he said, his voice loud enough to cut clean through the music, which made heads turn. “The famous slut… now rocking the ring of the city’s biggest whoremaster.”The air snapped. Like something had broken in it. His voice reached farther than it should have. People paused. Even the guys who harassed me earlier looked up.I didn’t flinch. Not my face. Not my body. I kept walking like I hadn’t heard a thing. I reached for Ella’s hand without a word.“Let’s
