LOGINBefore Skylar could even tell her husband she was pregnant, her marriage ended in betrayal. In one night, she lost everything she thought she had. A husband, a family, and the fragile future she was holding onto. Skylar Blackwood had once believed sacrifice was love. To save her father from prison, she agreed to marry into the powerful Blackwood family, giving up her final year of college and reshaping her entire life around a man who never truly loved her. Instead, she was discarded, humiliated, and broken in the very moment she needed him most. Then came the man she was never meant to meet. A ruthless billionaire known as the black sheep of the Blackwood family. He was feared, untouchable, and far more dangerous than the man she once called husband. He does not believe in mercy, nor in saving people. Yet somehow, Skylar becomes an exception he cannot ignore. And just when Skylar thinks she has finally escaped her past, her ex-husband returns, this time with regret in his eyes and greed behind his intentions, as he realizes the woman he discarded now belongs to a world he can never afford. Because her new husband doesn’t just protect her. He owns empires, controls wealth beyond imagination and gives her everything the man who once humiliated her could never reach. When betrayal burns everything to the ground, a dangerous obsession rises from the ashes, and two powerful brothers collide over a woman who refuses to be broken again.
View MoreSkylar I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me whole.My face burned with embarrassment as I stared at the tiny stain on the corner of the page."I..." The words died in my throat.Sebastian looked at the contract for another second before closing the folder."I'll have another copy printed."His face remained as unreadable as ever, as though nothing had happened.For some reason, that only made me feel worse.He looked at me again. "We leave in two hours. You should freshen up."He had already started turning away when his words finally registered."Two hours?" I blurted, scrambling off the bed. "I thought I had at least a few more hours."He paused at the door and glanced back over his shoulder. "No. The earlier, the better."Then he glanced at his watch. "And I don't like being late."Without another word, he walked out.The door clicked shut behind him. I stood there for another moment, trying to convince myself this was really happening.Then I made my way to the bathroom.
Skylar I walked beside Sebastian in silence, trying my best to match his long strides. The moment we stepped through the front doors, everything changed. Every servant inside immediately stopped what they were doing and bowed in unison. "Welcome home, Master." I blinked. Not a single person dared to lift their head until Sebastian had walked past. The entire mansion fell into complete silence. No one whispered. No one looked directly at him unless he acknowledged them first. For some reason, I found myself straightening my back too, intimidated by the cold authority that seemed to surround him. A young girl approached us with calm steps. She wore a neat black uniform, and her brown hair was tied into a neat bun. She stopped before Sebastian and bowed. "Welcome home, Master." Sebastian gave a small nod. "Louisa." "Yes, Master?" she answered respectfully. "Gather everyone." She curtsied slightly. "Immediately, Master." Without another word, she turned and began issuing q
Skylar The corner of his mouth lifted slightly.“Careful, Skylar, you just agreed without knowing what you’re really signing up for.”He held my gaze for another long second, then straightened his suit jacket.“A member of the staff will be here shortly to prepare you.”I frowned. “P-prepare me?”He was already walking toward the door. “You'll understand soon enough.”Before I could stop him or demand an explanation, the door clicked shut behind him.Silence swallowed the room. I stared at the closed door, half expecting him to come back and admit this had all been some elaborate joke.But he didn’t.I let out a slow, shaky breath and rubbed my temples, trying to ease the pounding in my head.Barely a minute later, three soft knocks sounded against the door.“Come in,” I called, my voice hesitant.The door opened to reveal a young woman who looked to be in her early twenties. She wore a neatly pressed black uniform with crisp white accents, her dark hair pulled into a sleek ponytail.
Skylar I stared at the man standing at the foot of the bed. Everything about him screamed danger. Expensive danger. There was something about the way he filled the space that made the room feel smaller than it actually was. He was a Blackwood. The realization sent a fresh wave of ice through my veins. Yet something about him felt different from the ones I had known. He seemed colder, far more dangerous. “You crashed into my car,” he said, his deep voice sweeping through the quiet room. My throat tightened. “It was an accident. I’m sorry, I—” “Accidents still carry a price.” His dark eyes held mine without mercy. “Twenty-five thousand dollars.” The number hit me like a punch to the gut. I had nothing left. No savings, no home, no future. Alex had made sure of that, stripping me bare before tossing me aside like yesterday’s trash. “I-I don’t have that kind of money,” I whispered, my voice barely staying steady. He didn’t look surprised. He leaned closer, his presence filling th
