Remarried For Revenge

“Revenge!” That was the only thing on her mind when her husband cheated on her with her step-sister. Evangeline Midnight Star vowed to take revenge on her husband and her sister after her husband threw her away like a broken toy that was not needed anymore. But for that, she had to be strong again. She had to bare her claws and fight until she was strong enough to protect herself. And for that, she was ready to deal with the devil. Damien Alancaster, the devil of the empire, the beast of the north, the demon who drinks blood. He was the only one who could save her. But who would save her from him? “We are only in a contractual marriage. I want to keep things professional.” She took a step back, looking for the papers they had signed that fateful night. He smirked, taking a step closer and leaning on her back, kissing her ears when she shivered, “Since the contract papers are gone, there is no more contract left, but only marriage. Right, darling?” note; the cover is designed by dixerqua, a fellow author form webnovel.

A Wicked Man

"You should help Elene. She is your sister. As an elder sister, you should be kind to her." Evan's brow furrowed as she felt the change in mood. 

The gentle and kind Harold returned. Her eyes instinctively went to the door. There was no one. But when she looked at him again, he was snickering. His fingers moved to her lower lip and he rubbed it hard making her gasp.

"You know she is so sweet." she felt sick inside and moved to vomit when he finally let her go. 

The next moment the door opened and Elene entered the room. She looked in a better mood. Though she still glared at him, there was a smile on her face while her hands were behind her back as if she was hiding something.

Evangeline finally understood. He knew she was listening while hiding. She had thought it would be easier, but the man was more sinister than she could ever have thought. A new type of fear started to crawl in her heart. She had informed Damien that she would handle their divorce. But would he really let her go just because she wanted to?

"I went to look for food but the kitchen was closed after lunch and they would only prepare food for dinner now." Elene smiled sweetly with her glimmering eyes, "I have to beg them for this loaf of bread." She showed her hands finally and there was a load of hard bread with white molds started to grow around the corners.

Harold looked at her amused. And for once, Evan understood. He was using both of them against each other for getting power. She had given him the position of marques and though her lands were still in her name, he held authority over every deal and Elene had given her, her properties, her lands. 

For once, she did not care about the molded bread but her life.

"Elene, you are a fool and so am i." she gritted her teeth making Harold's eyes flickered. "You do not know that Harold is using both of us to gain more power. I will explain to you once we reach the palace. Come with me, Elene." 

He looked at Elene with excitement as if he was anticipating her reply instead of fearing it.

"Tsk! I knew that you were acting sick to avoid your doom. When it did not work, you have come down to such a cheap trick. You know about us, don't you?" Elene threw the loaf of bread on the ground and gritted her teeth.

"You know what, Evangeline.. For my whole life I have lived under your shadow. I was the father's daughter too but he never loved me and cared for me. All he did was "Evangeline is so perfect. Evangeline is kind and thoughtful, Evangeline is so great, she would take my place.

As if my mother and I did not exist. My mother tried to be a good mother to you, she cared for you and made sure you never feel alone. But father only has eyes for you. Why did he give birth to me then? I will not ask why he married my mother.. It was to make sure that you have a perfect family, a mother to show you love and concern.

He had used my mother but i.. I was useless to him. A mistake that he regretted. Do you think I do not know that.." her chest heaved with anger as she looked at stunned Evangeline with hatred and contempt but there was a hint of longing in her eyes.

"But now, Harold has chosen me. He loves me and not you. I have lived under your shadow for seventeen years. You can not bear to do it for a week? Tsk tsk! Your excuses are a waste on me." Evan looked at her horrified and then at Harold who was hardly able to control his laughter as if sisters were providing him with the best entertainment show.

When their eyes met, he snickered at her and then went to Elene.

"There, you do not need to be so angry. I have told you, I will take care of you and love you forever. You are the one I choose." Elene melted in his arms. She hugged him as if her life was depending on it.

Her watery eyes haunted Evan for a second and she closed her eyes.

"Elene.."

"That is it! You are going there and accept that you have done this intentionally or your life would be hell and so as those whom you love. Do you think we will not be able to find Daisy? We will make sure that she suffers too." Elene warned in a cold voice when Harold rubbed her arms as if he was giving her strength but now she knew better.

He was using both of them to gain everything that belonged to them.

"I will accept that it is my mistake. Then what? Will you be able to work here? Will you be able to teach piano or painting to all the aspiring students? They will find out about Elene. Sooner or later they will realize that you are not that perfect, not that skillful and then the truth will be realized.

You will be in a bigger mess by then, Elene." Evan pleaded, not for Elene but for them. For their family, for justice but Elene could never believe any word coming from Evan.

The woman had spent a decade only taking care of herself and her lands. She never cared for Elene. Why would she start now when she knew that her husband had abandoned her and chosen Elene.

So, even when her heart trembled on those words, she ignored them.

"You think I do not know piano or painting? I have perfect skills to teach those novice students. I only want you to get rid of Soliene for me."
