Beauty And The Prince[Checkmate, Mr Ex-Husband]
“I paid you! Why do you keep stalking me, then?” She burst out, while glancing at the door as if she was expecting someone to come in and save her. Not that she needed any saving though.
I placed both hands on the table, and leaned down towards her. “We fucked.” My lips curled.
Her face colored crimson. “It was a nightstand. Adults have one nightstands all the time. Moreover, I paid you-”
“I’m not other people, Inez Raymond,” I said, cutting off her words. “Let’s make a deal.”
Interest sparked within her eyes, yet she eyed me cautiously. “What deal?”
“That you'll agree to be my wife for three months. If you don't fall in love with me during that period, I'll let you be.”
She hesitated. “No sex?”
I smirked. “I can't promise that. So, what do you say?”
She took a deep breath. “Okay.”
***
In her drunken and broken hearted haze, Inez Raymond has a one nightstand with a stranger. She pays him off the next morning, and part ways with him. But then, he starts stalking her. When he forces her into a deal with him, she agrees. What she doesn't know is that the stranger was connected with her in ways she could never imagine. Nor was she aware that she was the only heiress of the most powerful family in Europe, second only to the Celvins. While she's determined not to fall in love with him within three months, he's determined to make her fall in love with him, to find out who made her lose her memory years ago, while helping her get revenge on her ex-husband.
Who will emerge champion, in their little game of chess?
