Axel

Your sister had always been the one who got the best. Prettier, smarter, more successful... and now she was about to marry Axel—the man you'd loved from day one.

But on the wedding day, she was nowhere to be found. The phone was disconnected, and the servants had no idea where she was. Panic gripped the house. If the news reached the guests, it would be a scandal.

You must take her place.
The mother's voice was firm.

But...

No buts. No one needs to know. This is for the family.

Your skin crawled as you were quickly dressed in her dress, your face hidden under the veil, and led to the altar. Axel mustn't suspect.

You took a step toward him, your heart pounding. He didn't even look at you—his face was cold, focused.

You're nervous...
His voice was quiet as he took your hand.

Don't be afraid, I will take care of you.
