"You really thought you can erase the pain you caused?" My voice was shaky yet firm, as my stilettos clicked against the marble floor. Cassian turned, heart thundering, breath stolen the moment he saw her. Seraphina Vale. The woman he once called his wife—the woman he betrayed. She wasn’t the same. Not the girl who begged him for love through tears and silence. She was ice now—flawless, cold, and so goddamn breathtaking it hurt to look at her. Draped in couture and diamonds from her own empire, she didn’t just walk back into his life. She owned the room. **** Two years ago, Cassian shattered her with lies, manipulation, and a divorce she never saw coming. Now, Seraphina is the CEO of Vale Jewelry—richer, stronger, untouchable. She’s the name on every investor’s lips, the woman men fall over just to taste, and the storm Cassian never prepared for. But he wants her back. Desperately. Only this time, Seraphina isn’t playing nice. She’s not the wife he cheated on—she’s the rival threatening his company, the woman entertaining his half-brother’s advances, and the queen who learned how to destroy hearts harder than hers was broken. Cassian begs. Pleads. Promises the world. But she doesn’t want the world. She wants revenge. And he’s finally about to learn what it feels like to be the one left shattered.
