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!

Loving Alec

"I'm easy?" Alec asked.

"Yeah. You're easy to talk to. Easy to get to know. Definitely easy on the eyes."

"Let's see if you think I'm easy once we reach the top."

"Deal, but I'm out of ideas where to go from here."

Alec pointed out a couple of likely options, but I lacked the reach of my six-foot-plus mountaineer companion.

"Okay," Alec said. "It looks like its time to use the ropes and gear to climb. Hold here and here."

He showed me how to use the ropes and the gadget at my waist to lift myself up as I walked up the precipice until I reached the next blue chalk mark.

I thought I saw the perfect set up to resume my climb the old-fashioned way, and frankly, I felt safer pressed against the wall than hanging out in the air on ropes, and both options were strenuous.

I walked my feet over to the indentions where I intended to get a toe hold. The left foot slipped right in, but I'd misjudged the distance to the second spot.
