The Comatose Heir's Unwanted Wife

The humid Southern air always brought back the dread. Today was the day-the day the two proposals would arrive, sealing my fate.

My sister, Sabrina, burst in, her eyes manic, declaring she' d marry Brian Hughes, the charming mechanic, and I would marry Andrew Lester, the comatose heir.

This wasn't how it happened before. In my first life, Sabrina scheme her way into marrying Andrew, condemning me to Brian' s terrifying abuse – the beatings, the broken bones, the eventual fire she set to kill me because she thought my brokenness was a form of happiness.

Now, reincarnated, she remembers only Brian' s public devotion, oblivious to the monster beneath. She wanted my nightmare.

As a wave of dizzying relief washed over me, I realized… my tormentor, the man who destroyed me, was her desperate prize.

My mother, always favoring Sabrina, quickly agreed. They thought they were pushing me into a living widowhood, a quiet misery.

They had no idea they were finally setting me free.
