Elara Dawn

Veronica Murray and Cullen Dennis have been married for seven years. She gave up a brilliant career in tech to be his perfect wife, smiling through his coldness, convinced her devotion could one day melt his heart. But that dream shatters. His heart was never hers to win; it has always belonged to another woman.

On her birthday, she flies to surprise him and their daughter, Sabrina, only to find them celebrating with his true love, leaving Veronica completely alone. Her spirit finally breaks. She isn’t even hurt anymore when Sabrina wants the other woman to be her mother. Veronica leaves a signed divorce agreement on his desk and walks away, cutting Cullen and Sabrina from her life without a backward glance. All that’s left is to wait for the final decree.

After abandoning her broken family, the tech prodigy reawakens, quickly building an empire and stunning everyone who ever looked down on her. Veronica waits for her freedom, but the divorce certificate never comes. Instead, Cullen, the man who never came home, starts showing up at her door, clinging to her. When he finally learns she wants a divorce, his legendary composure shatters. He slams her against a wall, his voice a dangerous murmur. “A divorce? In your dreams.”

The lounge area was relatively quiet, with only a few guests scattered around the elegantly arranged seating. Veronica and Whitney had retreated here to escape the crowded main hall, seeking a moment of respite from the evening's social whirlwind. Just as Whitney opened her mouth to continue their conversation, voices drifted over from behind a decorative pillar adorned with cascading orchids.


"Maverick, you seem quite fascinated by Cullen's woman tonight." The voice belonged to someone Veronica didn't recognize, but the tone carried the casual arrogance typical of their social circle.


"Fascinated might be too strong a word," came Maverick's familiar voice in response. "But I'll admit she's caught my attention."
