I Loved You Once, I’ll Destroy You Twice

“100 million. Take the money, leave the country within a week, and never come near my grandson again.”

In my old life, I would’ve cried, begged, screamed that I loved Austin Livingston and wasn’t after his money. But that girl is dead. Literally.

Austin killed me with his own hands. A drunken rage, a gun, and a name on his lips that wasn’t mine. I died watching the man I loved whisper another woman’s name.

But when I opened my eyes again, I was back. Back before the betrayal. Back to the night his grandmother slid a check across the table, expecting me to break.
