My Husband's Affair, My Anniversary Gift

"You'll be my wife on paper only. You'll have everything—except my heart. You'll never be Marina."

For five years, Lily lived as David's secret wife—his poised secretary by day, his invisible stand-in by night. Every cold touch reminded her she was just a replacement. Every whispered “Marina” cut deeper than the last.

Then his ex returned. And without hesitation, David cast Lily aside like she meant nothing.

So she did what she should have done years ago.

She signed the divorce papers.

She walked away.

But now, David couldn't escape her absence. Her silence burned him in ways Marina never could.

And suddenly, the man who swore he'd never love her was determined to get her back.

By any means necessary.

Even if it meant breaking her all over again.

She paid the price for loving him once.

Now, he'd pay for losing her forever.
