I died on the day I was supposed to receive the Pack’s Distinguished Service Award. Three hours after I died, my parents, my brother, and my mate were just wrapping up the graduation party they’d thrown for my sister. While my sister, Ella, was posting a cozy family photo on Instagram, I was locked in our basement, using my tongue to swipe on my phone and call for help. The only person who answered was my mate, Ryan. All he said was, "Sophie, cut the drama. Ella's graduation party is important. Enough with the tantrums!" This was the ninety-ninth time they had let me down. And the last. I lay in a pool of my own blood, my lungs still. They thought I was just throwing a fit, hiding somewhere. That if they taught me a lesson, I’d come crawling back. But they didn't know. I was home the whole time. I was already dead.

On my birthday, one of my husband’s subordinates leaned close to him and whispered in Russian, “Sasha has a surprise prepared for you tonight.” My husband smiled at me as he finished cutting my cake. Then, in the same language, he replied, “She has quite a few tricks in bed. I’ll see her later. “Just don’t let Madam find out, or I’m afraid I’ll get thrown out.” Everyone around laughed and assured keep it quiet. None of them knew that I’d been fluent in multiple languages since I was a child. What they also didn’t know was that I’d found the hidden phone he kept in the false drawer, where all the filthy videos of him and Sasha were saved. I didn’t confront him. Instead, I contacted a few remaining connections in the Vegas and had them prepare a new identity for me. In three days, Claire Vega would no longer exist, and he would never have me again.

Three days before the long weekend, the Department of Labor called me. "We got an anonymous complaint saying your company is forcing employees to go on a holiday retreat..." I went still. Then I checked social media. Yep. There it was. An intern who'd started a month ago had shoved me onto the local trending page. [Greedy boss turns holiday weekend into mandatory company retreat. Employees are basically free entertainment.] [They say it's optional. Yeah, right. Who's brave enough to say no?] Thousands of comments rolled in, absolutely roasting me. Except our retreats had always been elite. Fully paid. No cheap corporate nonsense. This time, I was paying out of pocket. Seven days in the Maldives. Everything covered. A $2,000 travel stipend each. Senior employees could bring family. But apparently, a free luxury vacation was oppression now. Cool. I told the labor officer, "We'll fully cooperate." Then I dropped a notice in the company group chat. [Per Department of Labor guidance, the long weekend company retreat is canceled. Everyone should take the holiday off as usual.] [The travel stipends and retreat budget will be moved into this quarter's employee benefits reserve.] The second I hit send, something slammed into a desk outside my office.

In 1978 Chicago, Evelyn Hart—a woman with supernatural abilities—was rescued from pursuers by Adrian Moretti, the heir to the Moretti family; the two quickly fell in love. To stay by his side as his wife, she turned down the secret government "Oracle Project" and accepted medication to suppress her powers. Later, when the Moretti family doctor diagnosed two successive pregnancies as involving severe fetal deformities, she tearfully terminated both, blaming her own anomalous physiology. During an ambush on the family, she took a bullet meant for Adrian; while he survived, he suffered a spinal injury that left him wheelchair-bound. A subsequent surgery for a third "deformed fetus" rendered her permanently infertile. Faced with family humiliation, Adrian publicly banished the subordinate who had insulted her, placed the Moretti family ring on her finger, kissed her, and declared her the only *Donna* he recognized. Evelyn became convinced that he was willing to forgo an heir for her sake.She cared for the paralyzed Adrian for nearly fifty years, managing the family affairs and looking after Elena—the widow of Adrian’s late brother—and their "nephew," Nick. It was only after Adrian’s death that she learned the truth from a lawyer: the couple had never been legally married; Elena was the registered wife, and Nick was Adrian’s biological son. All real estate, trusts, insurance policies, and family shares belonged to that mother and son. Even more cruel was the revelation that the medical reports regarding her three "deformed fetuses" had been fabricated. Left without Moretti protection, the elderly Evelyn was targeted for assassination by an old enemy. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself back in the week shortly after Adrian’s paralysis—a time when she still had the chance to choose a different life.The Oracle Project reappeared, informing her that it would take seven days to create a new identity and arrange her extraction; during this time, she had to act a
