June’s Pov

I sat at the table with Blue, my hands still shaking from everything I had just poured out. The bar felt too bright now, too full of eyes that kept glancing our way. I kept my head down, hoping no one was recording. Blue stared at me like she was seeing a ghost.

“So you really don’t remember who took you after the shooting?” she asked quietly.

“No,” I whispered. “Everything after the gunshot is just darkness. Then I woke up in the hospital and everyone was calling me Chloe.”

    June's PovI stood there, heart hammering against my ribs like it wanted to escape, my hand still frozen on the door handle. *What the actual fuck?*“Oh my God, I’m so sorry,” I blurted out, my voice cracking. “I didn’t— I didn'tknow you were here, I just— fuck, I’m sorry!”The guy on top of Blue whipped his head around, eyes wide. Blue, completely unbothered and still wrapped around him, groaned in frustration.I was about to leave when Blue suddenly said, “Stop,” she said, pushing at his chest lightly. “Why are you leaving? Babe, stay.”The guy— I swear the universe has a sick sense of humor— muttered, “Why wouldn’t she leave? We have to continue, sweetie.”Blue rolled her eyes dramatically. “Get off? Nigga, what the fuck? Get off. Someone just saw us fucking and you still want to continue? That’s like really creepy. Please leave right this instant.”He blinked, clearly confused as hell. “What the fuck? Why are you— what? Y’all are crazy.”I was trying so hard not to look down at th

    June’s PovI froze in the garden, my heart slamming against my ribs. Leo stood a few feet away, watching me with a mix of amusement and confusion. I had been practicing Chloe’s voice out loud like a fool, trying to copy her confident tone, her sharp little laughs. Now he had heard everything.“I am so sorry,” he said quickly, raising his hands. “I didn’t mean to scare you. Are you okay?”I pressed a hand to my chest, trying to calm my breathing. “Yeah. I am fine. Just… startled.”He took a slow step closer, eyes gentle but curious. “Can I sit?”There was an empty chair opposite mine. I nodded. “Sure.”Leo sat down, resting his arms on his knees. For a moment he just looked at me, really looked, like he was trying to solve a puzzle. The silence stretched until it felt heavy.“No offense,” he said finally, voice low, “but why were you talking to yourself like that? Mimicking your own voice? It looked like you were practicing lines or something.”I laughed nervously, the sound too high.

    June’s PovAfter what happened between me and the new guy I saw, I decided to sleep more. After a few minutes I woke up and was lost in thoughts.A soft knock on the door pulled me out of my thoughts. I sat up quickly, heart jumping. Was it Nikolai again? I wrapped a robe around myself and opened the door.Mrs. McCoy stood there, Nikolai’s mother, smiling gently. “Good morning, Chloe. Can I come in for a moment?”“Sure,” I said, stepping aside. I ran my fingers through my messy hair, trying to smooth it down. “Pardon my hair. I just woke up.”She waved her hand as she stepped inside. “It is okay, dear. No need to apologize.” She sat on the edge of the bed and patted the spot beside her. “Come sit with me.”I sat down, pulling the robe tighter around myself. My body still felt sore from the night before. Everything felt heavy.Mrs. McCoy took my hand in hers. Her touch was warm, almost motherly. “I just wanted to thank you personally for what you did yesterday. Nikolai told me the deal

  • Swapped: His Dead Wife's Revenge   Chapter 19

    Nikolai’s PovI walked back into the house, jaw tight, anger still burning under my skin. Chloe never stopped finding new ways to test me. That scene at the bar could have been all over the news if I had not handled it quickly. Thank God I kissed her in front of everyone. It looked romantic. The kind of thing people expect from a new husband. But inside I was furious. She had gone there after telling me she was visiting her father. Who knew what she was really doing before I arrived.I went to my study and tried to push it out of my mind. I sat down and started scrolling through emails, answering what I could. Work had always been the one thing that made sense. Numbers did not lie. Deals did not betray you.My phone rang. It was Mr. Hayes, Chloe’s father.I picked up. “Good evening, sir.”“Nikolai,” he said, voice warm but businesslike. “I have good news. I have decided to finalize the deal we discussed. All the papers are ready on my end. We can move forward with the partnership.”I

You’re sure it was him?”“I will never forget his face,” I said, my voice cracking. “He was the last thing I saw before I thought I was dying. And now I’m married to him. In her body.”Blue looked around quickly, then stood up. “I need a drink. Stay right here. I’ll be back in a second.”She walked toward the bar. I tried to smile to myself, but it felt broken. For the first time in days I had someone who believed me. Someone who knew the real

  • Swapped: His Dead Wife's Revenge   Chapter 17

    June’s PovI stepped into the bar and the world shifted around me. The place was quiet, dimly lit, with soft music playing in the background. For one second I felt like I could breathe. Then the hostess looked up, her eyes widened, and she smiled like she had just seen a movie star.“Mrs. McCoy,” she said warmly. “Welcome. It is so good to see you.”Mrs. McCoy. The name hit me like a slap. I was Mrs. McCoy now. Nikolai’s wife. Chloe’s name on my body. I forced a small smile and nodded, but inside my stomach twisted. People at nearby tables turned their heads. Phones came out. Whispers started. Oh my God, it’s Chloe McCoy. She’s here. Look at her.I had forgotten. Completely forgotten that in this body I was famous. A model with millions of followers. Everyone knew my face. I wanted to turn around and run back to the car, but the hostess was already leading me to a quiet corner booth that felt private enough. Still, I could feel eyes on me. Every step, every breath, someone was watchin
