My-Ex Watches Me Marry His Rival

For three long years, I loved only one man — my silent protector, Xander Thorne.

I gave him everything: my trust, my secrets… and one night, my body.

But when morning came, so did his betrayal.

"Don't pretend it meant something, Athena. You were never that innocent."

He threw me out. Broken. Humiliated. With nothing but his cruelty ringing through the hollow corridors of the compound like a gunshot that never stopped echoing.

Worse?

He belonged to her.

Jessica Valcruz. My stepsister. The golden girl with a crown of lies and a heart carved from black ice.
