Pampered by My Ex's Cousin - Chapter 782 - 774: She’s Your Young Aunt (Part Two)

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé.Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?Wrong.One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.Enter him.Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.And now, he’s not letting me go.

A famous actress slicing through monsters with flawless five-star choreography…A singer nuking mobs with long-range fire magic…A cold businesswoman trying to buy the entire monster hunter academy……and me—a dead-tired office worker who just wanted to log in and breathe.

The most successful businessman of his time, who started from being a homeless orphan, died indignantly because of being plotted against by his most trusted aid, his own brother.

Rune was just an ordinary man from Earth — until fate threw him into Ninth Dawn, a world of swords and magic. Reborn in the frail body of a child cursed with an F-rank Divine Blessing, Rune’s new life was nothing but suffering.Branded with false accusations of rape and murder, he was captured by the Seraphic Order of the Black Veil (SBV). Brutally tortured and executed for crimes he never committed, his story should have ended there.But death wasn’t the end.Time rewound. Rune opened his eyes once again to the moment of his first reincarnation.This time, he vowed vengeance.Guided by Nexar, the Warlord’s System, Rune carved his path through blood and fire. He conquered territories, raised armies, and earned the fearsome title:The First Warlord of the Dawn.Yet even warlords fall. At the peak of his conquest, Rune was struck down by the hand of the Demon Lord — the true shadow looming over the world.And then… he returned once more.Back to the very beginning.But now, something had changed.The system reincarnated with him.Only, it wasn’t the same.Nexar had awakened anew as:Nexar, the Warlord’s Carnal System.With vengeance burning in his heart and a twisted new system at his side, Rune is ready to defy fate itself.War, blood, lust, and conquest — his dawn has only just begun.
