Sylvia demanded, eyeing Ava as she approached the statue with the deathly inscription. Rose glanced around, trying to make sense of the shadowy figure near the door. "Guys, I don't think we're meant to touch that," Emily warned. "I think something is trapped in there." "Oh, that? I might have pushed it slightly, by mistake," Ava replied meekly.

She thought she was happily married - until she was diagnosed with terminal stomach cancer. Then came the truth: her "devoted" husband Lucien had been poisoning her for years, all to avenge a dead lover. On her deathbed, Calliope made a vow: If life gave her one more chance, she'd rewrite every ending-starting with his. Now reborn seven years earlier, she tears off the wedding dress and walks away from Lucien's lies. To protect her family and reclaim her stolen legacy, Calliope proposes a marriage of convenience to Conrad: a cold, enigmatic firefighter with more power-and more secrets-than anyone realizes. But Lucien is also reborn. And just as cruel. But this time, she's not the naïve bride. She's a tech genius. A business queen. A woman with nothing to lose. And Conrad? He's not just fire and steel-he's the weapon she never knew she needed. They're not here to survive. They're here to win.

Rain-slick alleys. Neon reflections bouncing off puddles like broken promises. The city never sleeps not because it wants to, but because it doesn’t dare. Most people walk these streets on autopilot. Not me. For me, every corner hums with life, every shadow whispers something I probably shouldn’t hear. Misfortune seems to follow me, like a loyal dog with terrible timing. It started with a disappearance. A man, a shadow, gone before I could blink. And then… someone was watching. Always watching. Curiosity tugged at me like a leash I couldn’t escape. What seemed like a coincidence twisted into something darker, something stitched into the veins of this city. The deeper I followed, the more tangled it all became. Lies. Secrets. Shadows that move when you’re not looking. Every step forward made survival a gamble: know when to pull, know when to cut loose. This is a city that punishes the curious. And I… I was far too curious.

Valcroy and Erik had been thrust into a journey neither had asked for, but both had been forced to endure. What began as a desperate escape from the Frostborne household unraveled into a quest that crossed realms and defied comprehension.
