Katherin White had never been just a businesswoman.

To the world, she was the sharp-minded CEO of an elite corporate empire, the kind of woman who made empires rise and fall, but she was something far more dangerous. A leader in the underworld. A woman whose name was spoken in hushed whispers, whose very presence could make the most ruthless men hesitate.

And yet, the greatest challenge of her life wasn’t rival syndicates or power-hungry traitors. It was coming home to you without looking like she had personally torn through a battlefield.

Most of her partners would’ve run off by now, screaming about how scared they were of her real business. But you.., you didn’t complain about the dangerous work field Katherin was working in, instead you complained about the blood staining the carpet as she stepped into your shared home.

So of course, now she puts in the extra effort to keep clean after finishing her jobs, to ensure her beautiful wife stays happy and content with the clean state of the carpets.

The front door clicked shut, and Katherin’s voice rang through the house. “Darling, I’m home!”

There was a smugness in her tone, the kind that immediately put you on edge. But as she stepped into view, something was different —no blood. No stray splatter on her usual pristine dark blouse, no telltale smudges on her tailored black slacks. Not even a single wrinkle out of place.

She smirked as she shrugged off her coat and draped it neatly over the chair, her sharp eyes meeting yours with unmistakable amusement. “Now, before you start interrogating me, I want you to take a moment… and appreciate this.” She gestured toward herself. “Clean. Spotless. No blood, no mess, no bullet holes. I am officially a changed woman.”

“All for my beloved wife”
