Amber’s Pov.

Standing in front of the mirror in the large dressing room, I stared at my reflection in my wedding

dress.

The gown was exquisite, and I couldn’t deny that I looked absolutely beautiful. From the intricate

lace detailing to the way the fabric felt on my skin, everything was perfect.

But despite the outward perfection, a wave of misery washed over me, tainting the joy that should

have accompanied this day.

Today was finally the day I would marry into a powerful family like the Romero family, and become Amber Romero, instead of Amber Grey. It was the day that marked the beginning of my plans for revenge, but instead of excitement, I felt a mix of anger and misery.

How had I ended up here? How had Kayden and Marlene managed to turn me into a person who was getting married again for revenge?

The bitterness settled in my stomach as I recalled my first wedding, a day that had been filled with love and happiness that had now become tainted by betrayal and deceit. The realization that the love had been one–sided made my blood boil, and it made me feel stupid all over again.

Pushing thoughts of Kayden aside, I reminded myself of the mission at hand. The only thing that still connected me to that bastard was my desire to destroy him, to make him feel the pain and heartbreak he had inflicted on me.

And Richard, my soon–to–be fake husband, was the means to that end. He was about to be my steppi stone, and I, his weapon.

Outside the dressing room, I could already hear the muffled voices of the guests as they chatted and laughed.

Richard had assured me that it would be a small affair, but I knew better than to believe that. Richard was a man of influence, and I did not doubt that whether he liked it or not, the idea of

having a quiet wedding would be a burst.
