Prologue
The wind roared around me, cold and merciless, as I stood at the edge of the rooftop. Below, the city stretched endlessly—lights flickering like dying fireflies. My heart pounded, each beat a reminder of the betrayal that had led me here.
Everything was gone. My father’s empire—stolen. My marriage—a lie. My love—a beautifully crafted illusion.
Behind me, a slow clap echoed.
"You should’ve read the fine print, darling."
Nivaan’s voice was laced with amusement, as if my destruction was nothing more than entertainment to him.
I turned slightly, my tear-streaked face meeting his cold, victorious smirk. Rage boiled in my veins, but it was swallowed by something deeper. Emptiness.
I stepped forward. Then another.
The world blurred as I let go.
For the first time in years… I felt free.
And as I plunged into the abyss, the last thing I heard was his laughter—before everything faded to black. 🖤
