I Drugged His First Love and Put Her in His Bed Instead of Me

by Aiden Wilson

I've lived this night before—the charity gala where Marcus Trent, the man I've loved in secret for five years, will be drugged by his enemies and wake up in scandal. Last time, I threw myself into his bed to save him, and he married me out of obligation, only to hate me for the next decade until our bitter end. This time, I'm doing the smart thing: I'm putting his first love, the perfect Olivia Chen, in that bed instead. He'll get his fairy tale, I'll walk away with my dignity intact, and everyone wins. So why does my chest feel like it's caving in as I watch the clock tick toward midnight?
