"I didn't marry a man. I married a balance sheet. And today, I'm finally closing the account."
Seven years. That's how long I played the perfect wife to Cillian Vane-Blackwood—the "Clockwork King" of Manhattan. I was the silent genius behind his most iconic designs, the woman who polished his public image until it shone like cold steel. I thought we were a team.
I was a fool.
When I discovered Cillian had leveraged my private patents to fund a secret empire—forging my signature to do it—I didn't cry. I didn't pack a bag and leave quietly. I triggered the "Moral Dissolution" clause in our ironclad prenup. A clause that gives me his company, his penthouse, and ninety days to watch him suffer.
The Rules of the Audit:
- Rule #1: We live together. He stays in the guest wing; I take the master suite.
- Rule #2: We work together. I am the CEO; he is my "consultant."
- Rule #3: No forgiveness. No matter how much he begs, how much he grovels, or how deep his secrets go.
But trapped in the glass Monolith we built together, the friction between us is reaching a breaking point. Every late-night confrontation in the workshop leaves me breathless. Every cold command in the boardroom hides a desperate, primal hunger. Cillian is determined to prove he didn't just steal my work—he built it for me.
He wants his life back. He wants me back. But in a world where time is a weapon, I'm the one holding the clock. And his time is officially up.
