Our entire family consists of international mercenaries, and I married Emily, the commander who was my perfect match.
But on our wedding day, a group of rebels stormed into the mercenary chapel, and all hell broke loose.
Emily, however, immediately pushed me away and protected her childhood sweetheart as they escaped.
I was pinned down by the rebel leader in front of the statue, repeatedly violated in front of all the captives, my limbs completely destroyed.
The next day, I was thrown in front of the tent, naked and covered in blood.
My twin sister fell to her knees, sobbing, and with trembling hands carried me into the medical pod, begging the medic to save me.
But in my hazy state, I overheard my sister and Emily coldly conspiring:
"That group of fake rebels is all dead now. No one will know you let them humiliate my sister."
"I'll help you keep it secret, but I only ask one thing: be good to David."
"Back then, he risked his life to save us, getting poisoned in the rainforest. Now he's carrying your child at the risk of his own life..."
Emily gripped my sister's shoulder, her voice low:
"Don't worry. Asher is done for. Now everyone believes he's unfit to be my husband. I'll take good care of David."As for Asher, we'll ensure his safety for life, but he must never threaten David's position."
So, the man I deeply loved and the sister I trusted most only saw me as a stepping stone for David's path.
If that's the case, I don't want this mercenary group anymore!

Love Like Ashes, Turning to Emptiness

"He's already dead, why go and throw your life away too?"


David clung to her arm, crying his eyes out: "Asher hates me so much, if he finds out I'm alive, he'll definitely come back to finish me off."


Emily looked at him in disbelief, her voice shaking.


"David, does he really hold such a deep grudge against you?"


David froze for a moment, a flicker of panic flashing in his eyes.


"Of course! Why else would I have nearly been killed so many times? It's all because he's jealous of me and wants to harm me."


"But thankfully, you and Sarah have always been there to save me."


As he spoke, he deliberately let go of Emily's arm and retreated to the side.


"Maybe Asher isn't dead after all. He's so cunning, he might be hiding somewhere, waiting for us to leave before coming back to hurt me."


"Emily, my stomach hurts so bad. It might be a side effect from the last time I was poisoned. Will you stay with me?"
