The guard gave a slight nod. “Yes, sir.”

Back at Riverville Prime Residence, Jennifer was busy sorting through a pile of custom jewelry laid out in front of her–all sized to her exact measurements–when the message came through.

Eugene had been more than generous. Private appointments with top designers, trunk shows brought directly to the house. She hadn’t hesitated, picking out the pieces she thought were best.

They’d look perfect on her.

Eugene was who he was. The richest man in the world. Once they were married, she’d make sure everyone knew. Let the world see who’d actually landed him.

And everything that belonged to him would belong to her.

Her phone buzzed. She glanced at the screen, and her expression hardened. She deleted the message fast and tossed the phone aside.

Once she had Eugene–once she had his protection–who else would she need to answer to?

Who could touch her then?

Master?

What even was he?

Speed things up? There were three days left until the wedding. Three days. Couldn’t he wait that long?

Bitch. She hated her.

Thinking about that man–that cold, empty presence–her gaze turned even darker.

She still didn’t know exactly who Vincent was. But one thing she knew for sure: the man was obsessed with Chloe.

Loved her. Couldn’t have her.

A man like that–he could move mountains if he wanted. Why didn’t he just take her? A woman like Chloe deserved exactly that. Break her down, and where could she run?

Honestly, Jennifer had nothing but contempt for Vincent.

If you’re waiting for Chloe to fall in love with you? Try another lifetime.

Pathetic. If you want something, you take it. Ruthless. That’s how you win. Feelings? Please. Childish

She heard footsteps. Her expression shifted instantly, the venom draining from her face, replaced by something soft and open. By the time Eugene pushed open the bedroom door, she was ready

“You’re back.” She gave him a gentle smile, playing Chloe perfectly, and crossed the room toward him

Bam PP PP.

Eugene made a quiet wound in response. He set an elegant box on the cable

“See if you like in Robert helped pick it out. It’s from my mother–the wants you to be happy

Jennifer glanced at the box, barely looking at it. She didn’t reach for it. Instead, the stepped closer to Eugene, looked up at him, and softened her voice. “Eugene are you nerwet

He looked back at her. “Why?”

“I don’t know. I suddenly am” She let a faint blush creep into her cheeks ‘Getting married. I always thought it was just something people did. But now, thinking about marrying you becoming your wife… She paused. I’m a little nervous

Eugene watched her. Listened. His face gave nothing away.

“Eugene, she said softly, moving even cover, reaching for his hand. “Can you tell me you love me again?”

The moment her fingers touched his, his gaze dropped. He looked at her hand wrapped around his

Pale. Soft. Holding on. It took everything he had not to shove her awaj.

“Chloe,” he said, slow and deliberate. I love you. Only you

He looked at her–but through her. Like he was saying it to someone else.

Chloe, I love you.

Jennifer’s heart sang. She was Chloe now. From now on, she’d replace everything about her.

Everything Chloe had would be hers.

Chloe was dead. The one standing here now–she was the real one. And no one would ever take her

A flush of color warmed her cheeks. Her grip on his hand tightened.

“Eugene, she breathed, soft and sweet. “Can you hold me?”

He reached out. Drew her in. But his hands stayed light. Careful. They never really touched her.
