"I'm so sorry for leading you down that path and leaving you in the cold arms of death. Would you ever let your heart accept me again?" Rick pleaded.

His words made no difference, because as far as I was concerned, he and everyone involved in making my life a living hell must pay dearly.

"Emma, please, for the sake of this innocent child, forgive me," he crouched low, his hands clasped together in agony.

"That can't be possible, not when all three children are ours," Jack's voice loomed from behind.

Our eyes turned to him, masked in confusion.


*****

Emma was betrayed by her husband on their anniversary. He accused her of infidelity and left her in the cold arms of death.

Six years later, she returns as Catherine Moore, completely stripped of her memories. The betrayal from six years ago had left her with amnesia.

As fate would have it, she meets with Rick. Not only does he become involved in her life again, but Jack Brown, her high school crush, also returns, even as she lives as Catherine Moore.

Amid a flood of twists and turns, what will Emma do when she finally regains her memories?

Will she choose revenge, love, or let fate take its course?

ECHOES OF BETRAYAL

The loud noise of music rumbled through my eardrums like a sickening stench, almost deafening.

I winced and rolled to the other end of the bed.

A sharp, cutting pain shot through my head. Strong. Pulsating.

Slowly, I opened my eyes, letting them adjust to the red light simmering through the room.

How did I get here? What is this…

"Argh." A gasp escaped my lips as the words began to form in my thoughts.

I slowly sat up, rubbing my face with both hands.

They landed on the ruined cake, the scattered bottles of wine on the floor, the blaring music, and the blinding shimmer of light.

I never knew I ruined all these in frustration last night, after countless calls and messages that never got a reply.

A strong force suddenly pulled at my head. Stronger than before. It echoed painfully. My head throbbed in agony.
