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!

In the Void

My mouth was dry. It felt like my throat would glue shut if I didn't hydrate and soon. I crawled toward the water while fanning my hands across the floor as I closed in to where I thought the supplies were left.

The dark, the music, and the cold still pounded at me. I had no idea how long I'd been left in the dark. It felt like a long time. It could have been minutes.

My hands hit a water bottle. It toppled into the other bottles. Down went more bottles. I heard them rolling across the floor, but I managed to save two.

My fingers were numb from the cold. I struggled to open the bottle. I finally broke down and used my teeth to unscrew the cap.

The water was cold and welcoming. I fought back the urge to gulp it down because I knew I'd regret it if did. When I judged I'd finished half the bottle, I recapped the bottle.
