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!

Wife’s Bitter Revenge Against Neglectful CEO Husband

Wyla dropped Alec and me off at his car, which he left parked near the club. Alec unlocked the doors and held my door open for me. All I could do was stare into the interior of the car.

Was this a mistake? Realistically, nothing had changed other than we missed each other. Alec had mistrusted me, and I hadn't done anything worth changing his mind.

If I went back to him, wouldn't it be the same? Sure, we might be okay for a while, but those thoughts would always niggle in the back of his head.

Was there a cure for jealousy and mistrust? Or was it that you trusted someone implicitly or didn't? People worked these issues out all the time, didn't they?

I hoped so. I loved Alec and wanted to be with him. I didn't want to live in a house made of eggshells, forever worried that I might smile at another man too long or that a friendly conversation might be interpreted as flirting.

Alone with Alec
