Chapter: CONTROLSLOANE’S POINT OF VIEW.I tossed for the tenth time in Lucien’s bed, while clutching his hoodie to my chest. Ever since my boyfriend had sped off on his Harley, I’d tried not to overthink or spiral down the deep hole of fear. I tried my best to believe he was okay….that Killian would not get a one-up on him, and cause him harm. I hated that I couldn’t put a call through to him. I was too scared that if I did, it would distract him and ultimately cause Lucien harm.Dread settled in my bones as I inhaled his scent in a bid to comfort myself. I didn’t know what this building was, but I trusted that it was a safe space since my boyfriend was in it a couple of hours ago.The night sky felt like there was a wolf birthing, as the full moon hung in the sky. The thunder raged against the black canvas, startling me to sit up in bed. I shuddered, a shiver coursing through me as I peeled off the sheets. Slipping my feet into the soft pink bunny slippers I’d found, I made my way out of the room.T

Chapter: HIS LIGHT.ACE'S POINT OF VIEW.I smiled against her hair and pulled away slowly so I could continue with what I was saying. I knew she wouldn’t turn me away; she wasn’t like Micheala….I remembered the girl I thought I loved back in middle school, and her reaction when I told her about it. She proceeded to vomit on my shoes and tell the rest of our classmates that I was a damaged boy.Valerian pulled me out of that school the moment he found out about it, not even considering the principal’s offer to have the kids who bullied me expelled. I still remember what my mother looked like. Although the memory was jarring, I could picture her face as clearly as eight-year-old me would remember. Her hair always looked as dark as the night sky, and would be oiled with something that had jasmine in it.She always had on really heavy, cakey makeup. No matter the time of day, her face would be contorted with different colours to conceal how hideous she looked underneath. I remembered how her laugh sounds,

Chapter: A CONFESSION.ACE’S POINT OF VIEW.The air around us felt suddenly still as our laughter died.I could feel the nerves on the back of my neck spiking as I stared at Amara. Dressed in my hoodie, which stopped mid-thigh, I could not help but think. My mind reverted to her parents, to the love they shared that was so powerful, it found them years later.I never believed in love, especially because it was never a possibility with the kind of home I came from… it was that hell hole that could ever be called a home.I swallowed the dry feeling in my throat and faced the peppers frying in the cooker. I needed something to distract me, so I wouldn’t see the look of disgust in her eyes from what I was about to tell her. ‘But what if she decides to leave you… What will you do then?’ my subconscious whispered, and the thought of it struck a feeling of panic through me. I don’t know if I’d be able to survive that. Amara showed me a future I never thought I would see… a future I never thought possible. “I’m s

Chapter: LOVE MAKES US FOOLS.AMARA’S POINT OF VIEW.He looked down at me with a smirk before bending so he could capture my lips in a soft kiss. If there was anything I knew about Ace, it was how much he enjoyed kissing me. The guy just cannot get enough of my lips, and who am I to deny him?I kissed him back with as much passion and….well, love, smiling against his lips, as he grabbed my ass, before smacking it. I gasped at the hot contact against my flesh, and Ace took that chance to insert his tongue into my mouth. The moment our tongues connected, he groaned into my mouth and kissed with even more passion. I followed his lead, letting him pull me further into the daze he always keeps me in. A few minutes later, he pulled away from me, choosing to feast on my neck instead, as he kissed my neck and shoulders with equal passion as earlier. “Ace.” I giggled at the ticklish feel of his slight stubble prickling against my neck. “That tickles.”“Hmm, baby.” He groaned, the sound deep and guttural. “I missed you.”

Chapter: SO...WHAT NEXT?AMARA'S POINT OF VIEW.I let out a breath of relief as the tension in my spine disappeared into thin air. Slurping on my mango smoothie, I mused on the events of yesterday.If trauma had a smell, mine would be burnt toast and mangoes. I sat on the counter in one of Ace’s many hoodies, sighing at the delectable taste of the smoothie I cajoled him into making for me.The door clicked open, forcing me out of the daze I was in. I didn’t have to look up to know it was him; the air changed whenever Ace walked into a room. Less oxygen, more heat….or maybe that effect was something only I experienced.“You look like someone who just watched a horror film,” he said, voice dripping with lazy amusement, his lips pulled in his signature smirk as he walked over to me. His sweat pants hung lazily on his hips, his upper body bare so his properly chiselled abs were on display before me. “Or accidentally walked in on one.”I groaned, dropping my face into my palms. “Don’t. You. Dare. Speak. Of it.”Ac

Chapter: WHAT THE HELL, PARENTS?!AMARA’S POINT OF VIEW.“Amara.” My mother gasps in shock, her face contorting in horror; the complete opposite of the blissful one that she had earlier, much to my horror.Someone please tell me there’s bleach for the mind, so I can scrub this from my memory box immediately. Scratch that, what I need is something I can take to wipe my memory.Someone please!“Amara, turn around.” My dad gasps, and frankly, he didn’t have to tell me, because I turned around the second my mother confirmed my horror.My mom and dad were in bed…together….doing the thing Ace and I do very often. “My parents were doing the thing, Ace and I do. Which—fine, karma, I deserved that. But somewhere under the horror and the desperate need to bleach my eyeballs, there was this… spark. Like maybe the universe was finally setting something right, just in the most traumatising way possible.”What the fuck?!“Please, someone explain what the hell I just saw?” I said, my hands rubbing at my eyes like the frantic motion

EX-CONVICT TO TRILLIONAIRE WIFE 18+
Five years ago, Summer Rodriguez was framed for a murder she didn’t commit—betrayed by her mother, abandoned by the world, and stabbed in the back by the one person she trusted most: her twin sister.
Five years later. She’s out.
And she’s coming for everything stolen from her.
Sophia has it all: freedom, wealth, family love… and a fiancé who is as irresistible as he is haunted. Kirill Volkov, a Russian trillionaire scarred by childhood trauma and the death of his older brother—the very brother killed in the hit-and-run caused by Summer’s family—lives with obsessive compulsions and a mind that sometimes forgets recent events, and sometimes people's faces.
Except Summer's for reasons he doesn't understand.
Additionally, love is a danger his body refuses to accept: every time feelings resembling love surface, his body rebels, sending him to the brink of collapse and often to the hospital.
When Summer confronts him at the altar disguised as Sophia, he doesn’t stop her. Instead, he pulls her close and declares, “She’s my wife.”
What begins as a calculated act of revenge ignites a dangerous, intoxicating game of desire, obsession, and secrets. Because when the woman who was stolen seeks to reclaim everything—and everyone—she’s ever wanted, nothing will ever be the same.

Chapter: THE DEVIL IN A SUIT.THE DEVIL IN A SUIT.SUMMER’S POINT OF VIEW.I wanted to tell her she was wrong…but everything she said felt true…..I’d heard these things all my life, and for some reason, even though I liked to act stronger than I knew I was deep down, I wanted to prove her wrong; to, for once in my life, grow a damn spine and talk back to the mirror image who has bullied me since we turned eight. My most painful memory of Sophia forcing me to suffer the consequences of her actions five years ago was our tenth birthday. When my father was still alive, he would get both of the machine presents because we were twins.The present for that year was a box of chocolates. We weren’t rich, so he could never really afford anything expensive, but we made do with what we had. Out of jealousy and childish rage, Sophia declared war on me because she thought the box of chocolates I got was bigger than hers.Even though we literally got the same thing,Little me offered a compromise; that we’d share… but Sophia w

Chapter: VENOM,....I BITE BACK.SUMMER’S POINT OF VIEW.The moment we stepped into the grandiose hall, the air shifted. I tried to stop the shudder threatening to escape me, but I failed. Kirill’s palm rested on my lower back, softly but firmly guiding me through with each step. Everyone’s eyes were glued to us as we walked to the centre of the room for the dance. “They’re watching; don’t falter; kotyonok.” He whispered, and despite myself, I nodded with a small smile tugging at my lips. I wasn’t a dancer, but I don’t think anyone would see it, because he compensated generously for me. I wish I could say the look of admiration laced with envy from the women surrounding us was a good thing…But I knew it wasn’t. They wanted the marble tiles to split open and swallow me so they could each have a turn at Kirill. But he barely spared them a glance, not even as the blonde-haired beauty adjacent to me flashed her breasts shamelessly at him. All he did was look straight at me. A few minutes later, the dance was over, a

Chapter: SIREN...TETHERING OFF HIS DESIRE,KIRILL’S POINT OF VIEW.The second I laid eyes on her, my breath hitched. Summer, my wife, looked like a weapon sent from hell to fuck me over. The dress I’d unwittingly picked hugged her body just right, dipping perfectly. The colour red popped off her skin just right, forcing the desire I’d painstakingly stifled earlier back up my throat. I wanted to peel it off her body and worship her just right. “Turn around,” I whispered, placing my hands in my pockets to keep from touching her, because I knew that if I did….I would lose any semblance of control. I’d taken to spending a lot of time in the gym or the shower; either fisting my cock angrily and stroking it until I roared her name as I came, or taking out my frustration on the treadmill, or the dumbbells. She smiled softly, obeying my command, and the moment she turned, I knew in that moment that if I survived the night without touching her the way I really wanted to, it would be nothing short of a miracle. The dress on her was n

Chapter: THE MASQURADE OF SIN.SUMMER’S POINT OF VIEW.Days later, it felt like absolutely nothing had happened. The moment Kirill and I got inside, in less than five minutes, each publication and video slandering my name was wiped off the internet. It reminded me of when commoners would hide in their little huts because they feared the king was rumoured to be on his way.I’d searched for anything else yesterday, just to see if anything else had suddenly propped up, because I knew the king of person Sophia was, especially when I had something she wanted but couldn’t get. She was insufferable. But to my surprise, there was nothing. Not a post, a tweet, or even a comment….it was like she had gone completely silent.That should have made me feel some semblance of peace, but it didn’t. Years of living with Sophia had taught me one thing: silence was never a good thing.I wrapped the cloud-like towel around my wet body, my feet practically sinking into the soft carpet as I grabbed a bottle of the ten-thousand-dollar lot

I wished my earlier words to my young wife were a lie; that the fact that I would help her would be nothing but a fantasy.But it wasn’t.The moment I saw the publications and the headlines, I could taste the blood in my mouth. What made it worse was the video Sophia made… that was the final nail in the fucking coffin.There was a plan; a simple plan. Marry one of the Rodriguez sisters; flip the entire family from inside out; get revenge for my older brother….But I couldn’t feel more fucking conflicted.I should blame the woman inside my bedroom; the very siren being who evoked dead feelings inside me, making me want to have sex for the first time in years again. The second I saw the sheen of tears in her eyes, I had to restrain the thoughts of war in my mind. The noise from the mob outside grew with each minute, but I wasn’t fazed. I

I smiled nervously and cleared my throat to break the ice. “What am I to do?”For a moment, he didn’t say a word; all he did was stare at me. “You said you wanted to fight like a Volkov… well, there's one thing you must know. You’re going to have to be as ruthless as possible.”I nodded, filled with determination. “I don’t care; Sophia didn’t care about me, so why should I?” “Good.” He whispered, caressing my cheeks slightly. The contact made me shudder.All of a sudden, he whipped his phone out and spoke into it after a few clicks. “Release the feed, Mikhail.” He commanded.I furrowed my brows in confusion….”What feed?”“I have a video the world would love to see about your sister.” He replied monotonously and pushed his phone back into his pocket. “What video? And how did you get it?”“I told

Chapter: 56.AURELIA'S POINT OF VIEW.I walked down the east wing hallway barefoot, sighing in content as my feet made contact with the cold marble tiles as I moved. The mansion felt silent; on most days, it usually was, but for some reason, the silence today had an eerie feel. The rain had finally stopped, but in its wake, it left grey skies which looked like they would release more rain on the earth in no time. I made my way to the kitchen, intent on satisfying my cravings. Levi was working in his office, so I was pretty much left to my own company for some time. I held my romance novel in my hands as I opened the refrigerator.So far, the novel did an excellent job at keeping me entertained, especia;;y with its plot twists. The author did her big one with the book. Because for some reason.

It was pouring like the world would not get rain after some time today, and for some reason, I welcomed it.The storm would be a good excuse to have Aurelia in the house for as long as possible. If he brother or grandfather needed to visit her, they could come over. The wind howled in bursts and rattled branches against the stone walls. Somewhere beyond the front gates, the old iron hinges were complaining in a low, rhythmic screech as they fought against the force of the rain and the wind.But I knew they would not succumb; I only made use of the best materials in my house. And the moment Matthew's threats came up, I had my decorators put up a gate

Chapter: 54.LEVI'S POINT OF VIEW.The text blinked up at me from the corner of my monitor, its sharp white letters slicing through the darkened room like a knife. It felt like someone had taken a knife and stabbed through my heart, using the words that stared back at me.The words replayed in my mind like a broken clock, like a horror movie, like a horrible song, you could not get out of your mind.You think you can protect yourself from me? I’m coming for you, and all you’ve got very soon. You’ll pay, little bro, you will pay dearly for all you’ve done. Keep her safe for as long as you can, because when I come, you and your connections will not be enough to save her from me.My pulse didn’t just spike, it dropped, as a cold weight settled in my chest, dragging my heartbeat down with it.Was my heart even still beating?

Corbert asked, and I had finally had enough of seeing his face on my screen."Well, there are the eye witness accounts of her sucking you off last week, just before you promised her, 'I'll make sure that bastard and his cunt get ripped to shreds at the council meeting' after she made you come." He started coughing, his face growing redder with embarrassment, as the hairs on his head stood straight like antennas."Mr Vale! I will not tolerate any lies against my person at this meeting! Do you have any idea of who the hell I am?" He yelled, looking like he had to fight himself with restraint so he wouldn't leap through the screen to lunge at me."Yes, I have proof." At that, he pur

He quickly turned it off, shutting its sounds and plunging the bathroom into silence again."It's time," I whispered.Walking to the counter felt scary, like every step was lava and I was melting, burning with each move of my legs.I picked the strip and turned it around, ready to face the truth even if it would feel like a sledgehammer.And j

The anesthesia administered to me had me asleep for long hours as the doctors on the plane worked on getting the bullet out of my thigh.Now, just eight months later, I am here, heavily pregnant, and attending my mother's wedding to the true love of her life, Daniel."Mom, are you ready?"

I imagine he shot another person."No problem, father in law" My response must show my lack of suprise. I had a feeling his feelings towards my wife were far from the way an uncle would love. He looks like someone ready to lay down his life for my wife if necessary, and for that, he has my respect."We are headed your way now, Dominic." Aurora says, "Do not move in on him until we show up.
