Ivy’s POV

Asher groaned. “Remind me again, Janine. What are you doing in here?” He stood with his hands on his hips.

I grinned in amusement, watching the exchange between Asher and Janine. She was wearing the hottest silver dress, paired with matching shoes that made her legs look endless. Her hair and makeup were perfectly done, making her look like a supermodel.

She lightly shoved him aside. “Move away, ogre. I’m here to see my sister.”

Asher raised an eyebrow. “Oh, you two are close like that?”

I chuckled at his expression.

“Yes, we are. Are you jealous?” she asked, scooting closer to me on the bed. “Ivy, you need to get out of bed. We need to go out. Now.”

“What?” His eyes flew open. “No way! My wife and I were having such a cute moment together.”

It was true. The day after my wild strip show for Asher, I had to endure his teasing all day, but the days that followed drew us closer. It was like the energy between us shifted, and we suddenly fell into step with it. We ate breakfast

    Ivy’s POVWe were giggling like two teenage girls as we slid into the limo. The moment I held Janine’s hand while we rushed out of the house together, I knew this was exactly what I needed. Besides Taylor, I didn’t really have other strong female friendships.I had built my whole life around her, so when she was gone, I didn’t have any other friends. I didn’t realize how much I had missed it until today. The driver started the engine, and the bodyguards in the car ahead of us pulled into motion.“So,” I turned to her with a raised brow, “where are we actually going?”“A club,” Janine said with a sly smile, stretching her legs out. “Obviously.”I laughed, shaking my head. “Of course, it’s a club. Why didn’t I guess?”“You’ve been cooped up too long. It’s time to remind you what fun feels like,” she teased, nudging my shoulder.We made light small talk as the city lights zipped past the tinted windows.After a while, Janine turned to me with a mischievous glint in her eye. “You and my b

    Janine’s POVI wore a long face as I watched Ivy leave. Maybe I shouldn’t have called her out. I should have left her in the comfort of her home, with Asher, instead of pulling her away only for her to leave immediately.I meant what I said about planning a trip for us girls together, and the gears in my head were already turning sharply, making plans.Luca cupped my cheek. “Hey,” his voice was a deep whisper.I broke into a wide smile as I turned to stare into those beautiful eyes. All this time had passed, yet I was still acting like a girl in high school with a massive crush on the school’s football captain. I still needed someone to tag along with me to deal with him, hence why I dragged Ivy here. I stifled a blush and averted my gaze. “Hey.”“We’re finally alone...” he trailed off, his emerald green eyes boring into mine.I bit the inner corner of my mouth, a small smirk creeping up on my lips as I answered in a low whisper, “Yes, we are…”Technically, we weren’t.

    Ivy’s POVThe unexpected contact made me moan out loud, “Oh...” I visibly shuddered, breaking our kiss.“Fuck, flower. You’re dripping wet...” he muttered in a hoarse voice. His fingers pushed my lacy panties to the side, parting my smooth folds with ease.I gripped his arm, “Asher...” I breathed. The pleasure that coursed through my body just by that simple touch was crazy. I bit down on my lower lip to stifle my moans.It was crazy how my body was reacting. I told myself it was because I was wound up from being celibate for months now. Deep down, I knew it was more than that. I knew it was because it was Asher, his hands touching me. I could lie to him, but I couldn’t lie to myself.He was the reason why my body was reacting in this manner. I lowered my gaze, but then his other hand gripped my chin and lifted it so he could look into my eyes.“Look at me, Ivy,” he whispered. “I don’t want you to look away at any point. I want to stare into your eyes when I touch you and when I fuck

    Asher’s POVShe obeyed, just as she did with every one of my other instructions, and I dipped my head back down to her pussy.The moment I got a taste of her, I knew I would never get enough of her. She tasted so good, even better than I imagined.She spread her legs wider, opening herself to me. “Fuck,” I muttered.Ivy was like a sweet drug; I would never get tired of tasting her. I thrust my tongue into her, and she moved her hips to meet my thrusts. She clenched the sheets and let out a guttural moan as I worked her nub.I loved hearing her moan; it was like sweet music to my ears. I would eat her out every morning just to hear her sweetly cry out in pleasure.I flicked her clit with my tongue and suckled lightly on it. She shut her eyes and threw her head backwards. “Oh, fuck me Asher!”I grunted in pleasure. I loved how she called out my name. I gripped her thigh in each hand, spreading her legs further, and continued to eat her out. I was staring right at her as I did.I wanted

    Ivy’s POV“There are no other women," he cut in. “And Kat was simply a ploy to get you into my bed.”My eyes grew wide and my mouth hung open. Ploy? What did he mean by that? “What?”He sighed and looked at me apologetically. “Kat’s job was to make you jealous so you would...” he shrugged. “Well, we would have sex...”I hit him on the arm. “Why would you lie about that?”“Oww!” He exclaimed, feigning pain. “Of course, it wasn’t my intention to hurt you. It was a small white lie to get you to put down all your defenses and give in to me. It was clear that you wanted this and yet you were holding back, for some reason.”I couldn’t even deny that he was right. I was holding back, pretending I didn’t want him. Also, the method was effective. I was driven more by jealousy the night I gave him that strip show. Technically, it had worked.“I was holding back because of the women. I didn’t want to have to compete for your love or your affection.” I swallowed and held his gaze. “I couldn’t bea

    Asher’s POVStacy had an apologetic look on her face as I walked up to her that morning. “Stacy?”“Good morning, Mr. Sterling,” she responded in a small voice and lowered her gaze.I got closer. “What is it?” I asked, my eyes searching her face for answers.“I’m sorry. I told him to wait for you, but he just barged into the office. He—”I didn’t wait to hear the rest of the sentence. My face was set in a deep frown as I burst into my office. There was only one person who would do that and throw her into a panic like this. I saw him sitting in my chair like he owned the place. What an annoying start to my day!“Asher,” he drawled, his voice laced with mock cheer as he twirled the chair around. “Thought I’d drop by,” he shrugged. “You know, have a small chat with my little brother. To my disappointment, you weren’t in.”I was still standing in the doorway, unmoving, my arms folded across my chest. “You’re in my seat, Marcus.”His lips slowly curled into a smirk. “I’ve grown quite used t

    Taylor’s POVI sashayed through the hallway of Sterling Winery, surrounded by four bodyguards. I didn’t want to be here in the first place, and the last thing I needed was people gushing over me. I mean, they could, but from a distance.My bodyguards cleared the path of curious employees as I walked through. I stopped at the reception desk and flashed the bright-eyed lady one of my killer smiles. “Hello—” I stole a quick glance at the name tag on the table, “Valerie. Where’s Asher’s office?”It took her a moment to come to. She closed her mouth and bowed her head. “I’m sorry. Do you have an appointment?”“Well, technically, no…”“I’m afraid you have to have an appointment with Mr. Sterling before you can see him.”I sighed and folded my arms across my chest. “Do you know who I am, Valerie?”“Of course,” she stuttered. “You’re Taylor Martin!” she declared in admiration. “Everyone, I mean, everyone knows you!”I grinned. “You said it yourself, so do I still need an appointment?” I was a

    Asher’s POVThere was a lump in my throat, my mouth turned dry, and beads of perspiration formed on my forehead despite the chill air conditioning. An internal battle raged inside of me. I couldn’t believe the images before me.No matter how much I squinted my eyes to look and tried to picture someone else’s face, I knew I was the naked man in those pictures.I gritted my teeth and stole a glance at Taylor. The expression on her face remained unchanged. She looked like the unbothered person who had strutted into my office just moments earlier. She didn’t feel any of the discomfort I was feeling - no signs of nervousness, nothing but that darned smile on her face.“What are these?” My voice had dropped an octave, my hands trembling as I held the pictures.She glanced at my hands and then back at me. “They are exactly what you think they are, Asher...”I glanced at the pictures again. Taylor was there, naked, with me. There was one of her on top of me. In all of them, I looked like a co

    Asher’s POVThe house was quiet.For the first time in weeks, there were no urgent phone calls, no reporters swarming outside, no meetings looming over my head. The chaos had finally settled, leaving behind a strange stillness that I wasn’t sure how to process.I stood in the dimly lit kitchen, staring at the untouched glass of whiskey on the counter. I had poured it out of habit, but I didn’t want it. I wasn’t sure what I wanted.Footsteps echoed softly from the hallway, and I turned just as Ivy stepped into the kitchen. She wore one of my sweatshirts, the sleeves swallowing her hands as she rubbed her arms. Her dark hair was pulled into a loose ponytail, strands falling around her face.“You’re still up,” she said, her voice quiet.I nodded. “Couldn’t sleep.”She hesitated, then leaned against the counter across from me. “Me neither.”For a moment, neither of us spoke. The silence between us wasn’t uncomfortable, but it was heavy. So much had happened. Too much. And now that everyth

    Janine’s POVThe sun had already dipped below the horizon by the time I left the office. My shoulders ached from sitting at my desk all day, staring at numbers that refused to make sense. The vineyard was quiet, the workers gone, but the weight of responsibility hadn’t left with them. It followed me everywhere, sinking into my bones.I barely noticed Luca waiting outside until he spoke.“Come with me.”I blinked, startled. He leaned casually against his car, hands in his pockets, watching me with that unreadable expression he wore when he was up to something.I exhaled, rubbing my temples. “Luca, I have so much to”He shook his head. “Not tonight.”I frowned. “What do you mean, not tonight?”He straightened, stepping closer. “I mean you’re taking a break.”I huffed a laugh, exhausted. “I don’t have time for a break.”“You don’t have time not to,” he countered. “You’ve been running yourself into the ground, Janine. I see it. Everyone sees it.”I opened my mouth to argue, but nothing ca

    Asher’s POV The chair beneath me is stiff, and the air in the office feels heavier than before. It’s been a week since Marcus’s funeral, but his absence still echoes through every inch of this place. I should be used to this by now. I should have settled into my role, into this office, into the life that was never meant to be mine. But I haven’t.I press my fingers to my temples, willing the headache away. The day has been nothing but meetings, numbers, and decisions I don’t feel qualified to make. Every time someone calls me Mr. Sterling, I feel like they’re talking to a ghost.The knock on the door is soft, but it cuts through the silence like a blade.“Asher?” Ivy’s voice is warm, a tether pulling me back before I get lost in my thoughts again.I exhale, forcing myself to sit up straighter. “Come in.”She steps inside, the scent of her perfume a familiar comfort. She doesn’t look at the paperwork on my desk or the unread messages on my screen. She looks at me, really looks at me,

    Asher’s POV The cameras flashed like lightning, the constant clicks filling the air as journalists jostled for position. A long table stretched before us, microphones lined up, waiting to catch every word. Janine and I sat in the center, facing the crowd, our names and titles displayed on small plaques in front of us.Sterling Industries was no longer Marcus’s. It was mine now.I adjusted my suit jacket, my fingers tightening around the edge of the table. The murmurs in the room died down as the moderator stepped up to the podium, tapping the mic to test the sound.“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming,” he began. “Today, we address the transition of leadership at Sterling Industries following the tragic loss of Marcus Sterling. His younger brother, Asher Sterling, will now take over as CEO, while Janine Sterling will assume leadership at Sterling Winery.”I felt Janine stiffen beside me. I didn’t look at her, but I knew what she was thinking—this wasn’t supposed to be her role

  • Dumped the Scumbag, Now I'm Married to a Billionaire   Blazer

    Janine’s POVI ran my fingers over the fabric of my blazer, adjusting the sleeves as I stood at the edge of the vineyard. The morning air was crisp, carrying the scent of damp earth and fresh leaves. It should have been comforting. This was Marcus’s place, the heart of everything he had built. But instead of feeling connected to him, I felt like an outsider trespassing on something sacred.I took a slow breath and stepped forward, my heels sinking slightly into the soil. I had walked these rows a hundred times before, but never like this. Never as the person responsible for keeping it all together. Marcus had made it look easy, but now that it was my turn, I felt like I was holding something too fragile, something that could shatter in my hands if I wasn’t careful.As I made my way deeper into the vineyard, I spotted a few of the workers tending to the vines. They moved with practiced ease, their hands working through the leaves, trimming, inspecting, ensuring everything was as it sh

  • Dumped the Scumbag, Now I'm Married to a Billionaire   Marcus

    Janine's POV I stood in front of my closet, staring at the rows of clothes that suddenly felt meaningless.What did someone wear to bury a brother?My fingers trailed over the fabrics, stopping at a simple black dress. It wasn’t fancy, wasn’t dramatic, just… appropriate. Marcus would have liked that. He always appreciated simplicity, things that were neat and put together.I pulled it off the hanger, holding it against myself in the mirror.It was ridiculous, but part of me wanted to hear his voice one more time, some teasing comment about how I was overthinking this, how I should just wear whatever made me feel comfortable. He never cared about appearances as much as people assumed he did.I squeezed my eyes shut.Marcus.My perfect, impossible, frustrating brother.My mind drifted back, grasping at the memories that felt both too close and impossibly far away.I remembered the time I got into my first real argument with Asher. I was furious, pacing in my room, ranting about how in

    Asher’s POV I stared at the suit laid out on the bed.Black. Crisp. Perfectly pressed.Marcus would’ve approved. He was always the one who looked flawless, the one who knew exactly what to wear, what to say, how to carry himself. I was the mess, the one who never quite fit into the image of a Sterling.And yet, here I was.I sat on the edge of the bed, gripping the fabric between my fingers. The funeral was in a few hours. People were already gathering. I needed to get dressed.But I couldn’t move.It felt wrong. Putting this suit on, walking into that ceremony, standing in front of a coffin that held my brother’s body.I should have been the one in there.I swallowed hard, pushing the thought away. Ivy would be here soon. She wouldn’t let me sit here and spiral.With a deep breath, I forced myself up, moving on autopilot as I changed. The tie was the hardest part. My fingers fumbled with it, frustration boiling over as I tried to get the knot right.“Dammit,” I muttered under my bre

    Asher’s POVThe news was everywhere.Every time I turned on the TV, there it was. Every time I scrolled through my phone, there was another headline. It wasn’t just about Marcus anymore. It was about Sterling Industries, about the board, about the future of the company.“Sterling Industries Faces Uncertain Future After CEO’s Tragic Death.”“Who Will Inherit Marcus Sterling’s Empire?”“With Marcus Gone, Can Asher Sterling Step Up?”I wanted to smash the screen every time I saw my name in those headlines. As if I wasn’t already drowning in grief, they wanted to throw expectations on my shoulders, shove a legacy into my hands like I was supposed to carry it without stumbling.I wasn’t Marcus. I never would be.The funeral preparations were already in motion, but none of it felt real. The calls, the arrangements, the condolences, they blurred together in a haze of exhaustion and pain. The house was filled with people coming and going, making decisions about flowers and speeches and seatin

    Ivy’s POVThe steam still clung to my skin as I stepped out of the shower, wrapping a towel around myself. The bathroom mirror was fogged over, the edges beginning to clear just enough to reflect a blurred version of me. I reached out, dragging my fingers across the glass, watching as my reflection sharpened. My hair dripped down my back, water trailing over my bare shoulders, but I didn’t move to dry it.I just stood there, staring at myself.My eyes looked hollow, the dark circles beneath them more pronounced than usual. I looked tired. I felt tired.My chest ached with the weight of everything, pressing down on me like something physical, something heavy. Marcus was gone. Asher was slipping away. And I didn’t know how to stop any of it.I turned away from the mirror, walking slowly back into the bedroom. The sheets on the bed were untouched, the pillows still fluffed, undisturbed. I had barely slept the past few nights, and it wasn’t just because of Marcus. It was Asher.He hadn’t
