THE DNA TEST CAME BACK POSITIVE. THEN HE BURIED IT.
They say a broken heart is the ultimate betrayal. They lied. The ultimate betrayal is when the man who swore you were his secret weakness discovers he has a child-
and chooses his goddamn power marriage anyway.
Ethan Blackwood doesn't just own the tech world; he owns the moment, the future, and every woman who crosses his path. I was supposed to be the quiet, intelligent fling. The forbidden heat behind the mahogany doors of Blackwood Tower. He promised me stolen nights. He promised me forever in whispers.
Then the pressure hit. The strategic merger. The political fiancée-ice queen Victoria Hale, who offers status and control, not love.
He cut me out like a cancerous growth. Clean. Cold. Ruthless.
He never asked if I was pregnant.
THE TRUTH IS A BOMB READY TO DETONATE.
If you've ever been discarded for ambition, if you've ever watched the man you love choose money over your soul, you know this feeling: a sickening rage that demands retribution.
I disappeared into the dust, trading skyscrapers for coastal obscurity, determined to protect my unborn daughter, Grace, from the monster who created her.
But fate-that wicked bastard-intervenes with a single, devastating photograph. A resemblance too strong to ignore. Ethan launches his private investigation. He demands the DNA test. He gets the proof.
And in the most calculated, gut-punching move imaginable, he pays his fixer to bury the evidence and walks down the aisle with another woman.
He didn't just abandon me.
He hid his own baby.
That's the kind of betrayal you don't just forgive. That's the kind of betrayal that makes you crave the spectacular, public implosion of a billion-dollar empire.
THIS IS YOUR INVITATION TO WATCH HIM BURN.
