Bye-bye Trash! Hello Queen! novel Chapter 1

The day Natalie Sanders died was Christmas' Eve. Snow was falling, and the night sky was ablaze with fireworks.

It was also the day she was kidnapped alongside her husband’s mistress, Joanna Scott.

Her four brothers and her husband chose to save Joanna.

And so, the man she loved most pushed her from the top of a building, sending her and the child in her womb plunging to their deaths.

As her soul drifted from her broken body, she looked down at the wreckage of herself and laughed. The family she had dedicated her life to protecting had all wanted her dead.

On the first day of her captivity, her brother Jerome, desperate to save Joanna, had let the kidnappers destroy her beautiful face.

On the second day, to keep Joanna alive, he had them break both of her hands.

On the third day, for Joanna’s sake, he had them inject her with an agonizing poison.

On the fourth day, to ensure Joanna's survival, he had them shatter her legs.

She had been four months pregnant.

Just when the pain was at its most unbearable, they had arrived. And the man she adored, in his rush to save Joanna, shoved her off the ledge.

She died mangled beyond recognition, but in that final moment, she felt a sense of peace. She was finally free.

But her soul could not move on. For decades, it drifted among her so-called loved ones, a silent witness to all their fates. It wasn’t until the day Sebastian Griffith finally died that she felt the weight of her resentment lift, allowing her to leave in peace.

Her spirit had wandered for what felt like an eternity, unable to reincarnate, and she never knew why. But now, she wanted to see what else the afterlife held. With Sebastian gone, her grudge had finally settled.

Natalie took one last look at Sebastian’s photograph, then turned and walked toward the villa’s entrance without a shred of regret. As she reached the doorway, a brilliant white light flared before her. A jolt of joy shot through her. Sebastian had been the anchor tying her soul to this world, and now she was truly free.

But in the next second, a powerful force yanked her back.

“Ah!” Natalie screamed, clawing at the air but finding nothing to hold on to.
