I married the man I had loved since my teenage years, believing that one day, he would love me too. But marriage taught me a painful lesson: being someone’s wife doesn’t mean you own their heart. Mateo gives me everything a wife could ask for, except the one thing I want most—his love. I thought patience would bring us closer. I thought my love would eventually become enough. Until one message made me question everything. Now, I’m trapped between the man I love and a truth I’m afraid to discover. What if the only way to make my husband love me is to fight for his heart against the woman who already owns it? The very reason that bound his mistress to him, I took away. It was the power and wealth I had given him. This shattered him. Heartbroken and ignorant of the reason for my actions, he saw it as betrayal. My intentions were simple: to break their bond and make him realize who truly loved him so he wouldn’t give his heart to the wrong woman. Though my approach was risky, it was worth it. However, one thing remained uncertain. Would he see beyond the betrayal he believed I had committed? Would he see my real intentions? Would he give me his heart instead of merely fulfilling his responsibilities as a husband? This was a journey of love I was riding on and determined to see through to the end.
