Wife’s Bitter Revenge Against Neglectful CEO Husband

Teela married King Heavenly because she loved him, but life in the Heavenly household was anything but euphoric. Lettie, her hard-as-nails mother-in-law, treats her like an unpaid servant. The family treats her like an outsider. King treats her like a shadow, transparent and forgettable. When Lettie presses Teela to prove her value to the family or get out, Teela has a decision to make. But she’s not leaving without a fight. King Heavenly rules Heavenly Industries with an iron fist, but he leaves his home life to his mother to manage, and that includes the management of his boring little wife. Teela has never complained. She’s never done anything interesting, for that matter. She’s just one more responsibility in a long line of responsibilities that King shoulders on a daily basis, and that is exactly how he treats her — as a responsibility that he’s delegated to his mother. Suddenly Teela steps out of the shadows and into a fight with him and his whole family, and King is baffled by the ruthless actions of his now daring wife. He’d always heard that vengeance is a dish best served cold, but Teela is coming in hot!

Leaving The Well Water

Ash welcomed me back to the table with an attempt at a full-on-the-lips kiss. I turned my head at the last minute. I ended up with slobber on my cheek instead, but Ash didn't seem to care. I probably wasn't the only one who had ever attempted to avoid his advances.

I let everyone return to the routine of drinking, telling stories, and wandering off in pairs to dance. It was close to the end of the evening when I tried again.

"Ash, are you sure you can't introduce me to your boss? I have a good job. I can pay the money back."

"Why put yourself in debt when you've got a good-looking man like me willing to take care of you if you'll take care of me?"

I would never consider Ash good-looking. Not ugly, true. Maybe plain, forgettable, a face in the crowd.

"I know, and I love that you want to take care of me, but after that asshole ex, I'd feel better with some pocket money, you know, just in case."
