The Neglected Wife's Secret: Genius Designer Aria

I was engaged to Atticus George, the youngest king of Wall Street. For ten years, his family raised me, and everyone in Manhattan envied my upcoming fairytale wedding. But just days before we were supposed to register at City Hall, I overheard him talking to his best friend. "She's a sunk cost. It's a long-term investment that yields no real excitement, but the cost of replacing the partner at this stage is too high." To him, our marriage was just a cold business transaction to unlock his family trust. Things got worse when I was falsely accused of assault and taken to the police precinct. Atticus showed up, but not to bail me out. He was there to protect the accuser's sister, Celena—the pregnant widow of his late best friend. When paparazzi suddenly swarmed the lobby, Atticus panicked. To shield Celena from the flashing cameras, he violently shoved me out of the way. I crashed hard into an iron bench, tearing my arm open. Bleeding and gasping for air, I watched him carry a fainting Celena to his car, completely ignoring my existence. At the hospital, he even signed her emergency admission forms as her "family." For ten years, I had poured my entire heart into loving him. I didn't understand how the boy who once promised to protect me could give all his desperate tenderness to another woman while leaving me bleeding on the floor. When he abandoned me yet again in the middle of the night just because she called crying, my heart finally died. I packed my bags and left a single note on his desk. "The contract is terminated." Then, I walked out of his estate and into the freezing rain.

I was the lowest Omega in the pack, yet bound by the Moon Goddess as the fated mate to our supreme Alpha, Silas. But he despised me, giving all his love and protection to a Beta named Selene and her sister Chloe. When a Rogue broke into my cramped dorm room and pressed a burning silver blade to my neck, I used our Mind-Link to beg Silas for help. Instead of saving me, he thought I was faking it to get his attention. "Go ahead and die. It would be a favor to this pack," he snapped, before brutally severing our mate bond. The Rogue slit my throat. I became a ghost, tethered to my own corpse. Hours later, Silas stood right outside my door. But he deliberately shut off his wolf's sense of smell to avoid my stench, completely missing the thick metallic scent of my blood. He walked away to buy a diamond necklace for Chloe. I floated there, watching my blood pool on the cold concrete. For years, I had endured their bullying and his coldness, just hoping for a single crumb of his affection. We were fated mates, yet he let me be butchered without a second thought. Now that I am truly dead, I watch as the truth finally comes to light. I watch the great Alpha lose his mind, destroy the women he once favored, and jump off a cliff just to find me. But as my soul fades into the wind, I feel absolutely nothing.

Liana was the adopted heiress of the Pruitt family, engaged to Austin Carlisle. But her perfect life shattered the day the family's biological daughter, Serena, finally returned. On that exact morning, Liana woke up in a hotel room after being drugged, only to realize she had accidentally slept with Julian Carlisle—the ruthless Wall Street titan and her fiancé's terrifying uncle. To make matters worse, she rear-ended his custom Rolls-Royce in the pouring rain just hours later. That night at the family banquet, her adoptive parents publicly stripped her of her engagement, handing Austin over to Serena. Austin mocked her as a worthless charity case. When Liana returned home, she found her room destroyed, her belongings shoved into cardboard boxes to make way for the "true" heiress. "Get out of my house! And don't you ever come back!" Her family froze her trust fund, kicked her out into the thunderstorm, and severed all ties. She had spent years trying to be the perfect daughter, only to be discarded like garbage the second the real one appeared. And as if her life wasn't ruined enough, a courier delivered a seven-figure repair bill from Julian Carlisle for his damaged car. It was an astronomical debt meant to completely crush her and strip away her last illusion of survival. Staring at the invoice with nothing left to her name, the polished facade of the obedient heiress finally died. Liana wiped her tears and gripped the paper tight. "I'm going to earn every single cent of this money with my own two hands, and I'm going to throw it right back in that bastard's face!"

I was five months pregnant and the top underground surgeon for the Chicago mafia. On Christmas Eve, I was called in to perform an off-the-books C-section on a VIP patient. But through the operating room glass, I saw my mafia boss husband, Julian. He wasn't there for me. He was slamming his fists against the door, screaming in desperation for the bleeding mistress on my table. "I swear on my life I will marry you, Lyla. Just hold on." I delivered his illegitimate son while he completely ignored my existence, kissing her knuckles with a reverence I thought was mine alone. The nightmare didn't end there. When I returned to our cold penthouse, I had my prenatal vitamins tested. They were laced with black-market hormones designed to cause severe fetal deformities and force a late-term miscarriage. Julian, the man who once took a bullet for me and swore a blood oath to protect me, had been secretly poisoning our unborn child. His entire family had been covering up his four-year affair, praising the mistress while using me as a convenient shield. How could the fiercely protective husband I loved be the very monster plotting to destroy me from the inside out? The last shred of my affection for the Capo instantly turned to ash. I calmly booked a discreet termination, drafted ironclad annulment papers, and walked out to build my own empire. ---

I stood alone in the grand lobby of City Hall. It was exactly noon, and my marriage reservation had officially expired. My fiancé, Caleb, didn't show up. Instead, my best friend sent me a video of him at a high-end Manhattan club. He was wearing his tailored wedding suit, pushing a massive five-tier birthday cake for his sister, Isla. When I rushed to the VIP booth to confront him, Caleb wasn't apologetic at all. He instinctively shielded Isla behind his body while his wealthy friends laughed at me. "Are you done throwing a tantrum? Did you really have to come here and humiliate her on her birthday?" Isla leaned into his chest, fake-crying and begging me not to be mad. Caleb glared at me, warning me that if I walked out the door today, I should never come back to beg him. Looking at the man I was supposed to marry, I felt completely disgusted. For three years, he had canceled our anniversaries and dinners every time Isla had a headache or felt lonely. He genuinely believed his blatant favoritism was justified, leaving me to look like the villain. I realized I had just wasted my youth on a dog. I pulled off my diamond ring, smashed it hard into the top of the expensive cake, and walked away. Just as I left the club, my phone rang. It was Julian Blackwood, Caleb's ruthless, billionaire older brother. "Since you planned on getting married today, you might as well change the groom," his deep voice said. "Become his sister-in-law, and make him bow his head to you." I clenched my ID card and walked straight toward his Rolls-Royce.
