CEO's Only Wife She needs a man
She needs a man.The best person is to have $150,000 left over to share.Carina Scodelario stared at the small bonfire she burned herself in the middle of her living room floor and wondered if she had completely lost her mind. The piece of paper in her hand contained all the qualities she dreamed her soulmate would have. Loyalty. Intelligence. Sense of humor. A strong sense of family and love for animals. And a solid income.Most of her ingredients are being boiled. A hair from a family member – her brother is still angry. A combination of aromatic herbs – will probably give him a gentle personality. And a small bar for... uhm, she hoped it wouldn't deliver what she feared.Taking a deep breath, she threw the list into the silver bucket and watched it burn. She felt like an idiot casting a love spell, but she had no other choice and so little to lose. As the owner of a philosophy bookstore in trendy New York City, she allowed herself to accept the fact that it was ironic. It is like s
CEO's Only Wife I think I found her
Carina gritted her teeth. Why is she always criticized for her choice of New York's football team? "The Mets have their own heart and personality, and I need a man who can root out lowliness. I won't sleep with a Yankees fan.""You're desperate. I'm giving up," Anna said. "Number two: love of books, art and poetry." She paused to think about it, then shrugged. "I accept. Three: believe in monogamy. Very important on the list. Number four: want children." She looked up. "How many kids?"Carina smiled at the thought. "I want three. But that's for the two of you to decide. Should I specifically put how many people on the list?""No, Mother Earth will make it right." Anna continued. "Number of years: knowing how to communicate with a woman. A very good thing. I get sick of reading about Venus and Mars. I've read the entire series and still haven't found a reason. Number six: love animals." She groaned. "It's as bad as the Mets!"(Venus and Mars: There is a very famous book called Men are
CEO's Only Wife Tell me what you're looking for in this marriage?"
Eric glanced around, satisfied with the results. His personal conference room always provides a business atmosphere, with the bouquets of fresh flowers that his secretary has placed in the center of the table showing a connection to his personal style, Among the elegant wine racks, the cherry wood surfaces shine with leather seats. The contract was already written, next to an elegant silver tea tray, coffee, and cakes. Formal, friendly – something that is reflected in the tunes of their marriage.He ignored the hole in his gut as he thought about meeting Carina Scodelario one more time. He wondered what she was like growing up. The stories his sister shared with him were portraits of an impulsive and reckless woman. He hesitated at first about Anna's offer – Carina didn't fit the image he needed. Unforgettable memories of a free-spirited child with an undulating ponytail always disturbed his thoughts, even though he knew she owned a respectable bookstore. He still thought she was An
CEO's Only Wife Are you sleeping with her?
He leaned closer to her, examining her. "Damn big money. Gambling debts huh?"An invisible wall fell between them. "No.""Or shop for a family?"Anger flared in her eyes. "They're none of your business. Part of the deal is that you can't ask me about the money or how I intend to use it.""Hmmm, is there anything else?""Where do we live?""My home.""I'm not giving up my apartment. I'll pay the rent as usual."Surprise shot through him. "As my wife, you will need a proper wardrobe. You will receive an allowance and be able to use my costume staff.""I'll wear what I want, when I want, and pay my own damn way."He fought against a smile. He almost enjoyed mind games, just like he did in the old days. "You will be the mistress of my business relationships. I have a lot of contractual arrangements in the works, so you have to show off to the other wives.""I can handle keeping my elbows off the table and smiling at their stupid jokes. But I need to be free to run my own business and enjo
CEO's Only Wife So we make a deal
Eric stared at the woman standing in front of him and tried to swallow. Her deep voice even conjures up fantasies of fire, demanding and ... full of rumbling. He let out a curse and took another sip of coffee, trying to buy time. Her whole attitude screams sex. The innocence of the past has been burned away and left to be a completely woman with purely female needs. He wondered what kind of man would satisfy those needs. He wondered how her plump breasts would feel in his hands, or what those lips would taste like under his. He wondered what she was wearing under that tight red dress."Eric?""Hmmm?""Did you hear me?""Yes. Sex. I promise you'll never find yourself in an awkward situation.""So, you're telling me you still intend to sleep with Gabriella?""Gabriella and I are in a relationship.""But I won't marry her."Tension enveloped the air around them. He took a few steps away, desperate. "It's not that kind of relationship.""Hmmm, that's interesting. So you're saying that I c
CEO's Only Wife Fish
Carina was perplexed by the silence that fell between them in the black BMW. Her future husband also seemed uncomfortable, and he chose to focus his energy on his MP3 player. She tried not to wince when he finally chose to play Mozart's music. He really likes music without words. She almost shivered again when she thought of sharing the same place with him. In. Near the. A year. "Do you have any of the Black Eyed Peas?" He looked confused by the question. "To eat?" She suppressed a groan. "I would pick a few more classic discs. Like Sinatra, Bennett, Martin." He remained silent. "Eagles? Beatles? Just shout if those names sound familiar."His shoulders stiffened. "I know who they are. Do you like Beethoven?" "Forget it." They went back to silence over the piano music. Carina knew they were both stressed as the distance to her parents' house shortened. Playing the loving couple is not going to be easy when they can't even have a two-minute conversation. She decided to try again
CEO's Only Wife Welcome to the family
She was about to open her mouth but his warning glance told her the conversation was over. Wonderful. She just accepted his rude words. Carina pointed to the street sign. "This is the entrance to my parents' house."Eric ran into the lane surrounding the house and turned off the engine. Both are researching a white Victorian house. From the outside, the warm, welcoming structure radiates from the classical stone pillars to the graceful porch that surrounds it. The weeping willows surrounded the edge of the sloping lawn almost forming a protective barrier. Large windows with closed black doors dot the front of the house. Now the darkness has obscured the signs of neglect due to financial hardship. It had covered the peeling white paint on the pillars, the cracked steps at the top of the porch, the faded old roof. She let out a sigh as her childhood home appeared around her as a consolation. "Are you ready?" he asked.She glanced at him. His face was cold, his eyes distant. He looked
CEO's Only Wife Your mother is coming in
Can you get out of this? Casting a love spell to meet an unknown, faceless man with some money spent to bail out her family was one thing. But the reappearance of the fleshly Eric Swann is another story. If her parents suspected she had made a bargain marriage to save the house, they would never have forgiven her. Or for themselves. With steady monthly medical bills coming from her father's heart condition, family pride would make them refuse any financial help from others. Knowing their daughter sacrificed her integrity to rescue them would break their hearts.Eric looked at her with a strange expression on his face, as if trying to determine something. Her fingers clenched to avoid reaching out to touch him. "Are you okay?" she asked. "I'm fine. Let's go inside." She watched him go inside and tried not to feel hurt by his brief words. He had warned her that he didn't like large families. She shouldn't be childish thinking that his actions were only aimed at her.She lifted the han

CEO's Only Wife I have to go
It's just a feeling, but I've been feeling it for a while. Someone is following me. I contacted Kudo, and he seriously sent some scouts to see if I was in danger. He was supposed to see me in a few days, in the name of investigating a fake case. During that time, he wanted me to behave normally. He didn't want my stalker to find out I knew.Kudo said he had heard several reports of people targeting Raymond's allies. Raymond has been missing for over a year and his government is not happy about it. They think the FBI has something to do with his disappearance. Of course they have no proof. Kudo didn't seem too upset about that, though. The culprit is clearly an unknown person. He freed eighteen women from sexual slavery.When I first heard the news, I immediately thought it might be Eric, and my heart felt like it was being squeezed by someone. Kudo didn't say it, but I think he might as well suspect Eric. It showed in the way he asked if I was likely to know who the person was or if s
CEO's Only Wife Justice
Johnny sits across from former Miss Yena Ruiz. She looks terrible. Her long dark hair was pulled back from her face and pulled into a messy bun. She has dark circles under her eyes and doesn't eat much either. The lack of food kept her in the hospital for another 72 hours, but they couldn't keep her once she decided she wanted to leave. Agent Sloan was also in the room. The revelations of the case were hard to swallow for her, too, and Johnny wished there was some way to comfort her without misleading her into thinking he was seducing her. She went to his room after visiting Yena at the hospital, and learned about his last conversation with Yena. They discussed the case for a while, but then she wanted to talk about the night they had sex, and he had to tell her frankly that it was just a one-night stand. She called him a coward. He called her even worse. “Is this the last piece of paper?” Anne Caliph asked. “Yes,” Johnny said. “Once you step out of this room, you will be Anne Cali
CEO's Only Wife Shot
“Why don't you let me decide for myself what is right? I want to stay with you.” I said choked. My heart rate increased, and I couldn't hold back the tears anymore. You're giving me a chance to go back home, back to my life, back to what I said I wanted - but all I can think about is, it doesn't matter if That means I'll never see you again. He tightened his grip on the steering wheel and pressed his forehead against it, “You don't know what you want, Nana, and what you want, you're just brainwashed into wanting them.” I immediately inhaled, trying to protest; He raised his hand to stop me. “I've been doing this for a long time - manipulating people to my liking. That's why I think I love you. Because you broke me and then put me back together and made me believe it. This is not an accident. Once you've left everything behind…you'll see that." I could barely see him through the mist of tears clouding my vision. Eric believed what he said. I could hear it in his voice – but he was w
CEO's Only Wife Because…this is the right thing to do
I was just unbuttoning my shirt when it happened. There was a huge explosion and something hit me right in the face. I reached up to touch my cheek. The breath left me in a heartbeat. Eric was above me, screaming, but I couldn't hear what he was saying. Looks like I didn't hear anything. My head ached. I bumped it to the floor when Eric lunged at me. Bricks flew everywhere. “Nana!” Eric shouted as he shook me. It pierced the silence in my head. BOOM! Another flood of rubble flew towards us. Eric lay on top, covering my face with his hands while burying his head near my shoulder. There's someone out there shooting at us. My eyes drifted to the door and I could see huge holes in what used to be wood. We rolled to the back of the bed. My whole body was shaking and I had no idea what was going on. Eric was pushing me and I cried out in pain. “Get in the tub!” He shouted. Then he pushed me again. I managed to get up on my hands and knees. Crawling towards the bathroom, I squirmed in
CEO's Only Wife Take care
The mansion is very quiet, strangely quiet. No Felipe. No Celia. No Raymond. Eric didn't answer and I didn't ask any questions.It was very hot outside, even though it was only early morning. I realized I hadn't stepped outside in a long time, under the bright sun. I am wearing clothes. I was…free. My footsteps stopped when that realization hit. FREE!“The truck isn't far, keep going,” Eric said coldly.I felt myself choking, an excited laugh escaping my lips, “Where are we going?” I said with tears of joy in my eyes."Please don't ask. Just go with me.”I looked at him, the pain on his face was so intense. Now is not the time to argue with you. Whatever he was doing, it seemed like a big deal. It will change everything between the two of us, but he is begging me to go with him, and when the man you love asks you to go with him – you will.We walked less than a mile, but I was amazed at the overall scale of Felipe's mansion. Whatever his business is, it's probably making a profit. We
CEO's Only Wife Don't look at me
Fear aside, I parted my lips and let his tongue invade my mouth. He groaned as I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him down on top of me. I tug on his dirty shirt and he pulls away from the kiss just long enough to pull it over his head. Sand and blood, I'm sure, fell on my face, but I just wiped them off with the back of my hand and continued to kiss Eric. His hands were everywhere at once, touching my hair, pulling me close, squeezing my breasts. His pillow hill slid between my knees, pushing them apart. I opened my legs and let Eric's lower belly press against me. I can feel his masculinity, confined in his jeans, pressing against his inner thighs. As we pounced on each other, a part of his wild personality seeped into me and before I knew it, I pushed him aside. He grabbed my shirt and let out a sound I understood to be a warning. “Yours, Eric. I promise," I said. I grabbed the hem of my shirt and pulled it over my head, exposing my breasts to Eric. His mouth came in, causi
CEO's Only Wife Stiff and dry
Eric has been gone for hours. I sat on the floor, next to his gun, waiting for something to happen, anything. So many times I thought about leaving the room and looking for him, but still tried to convince myself to give up the idea. Eric told him to wait. So I wait.A sense of dread began to rise as I saw light seeping through the curtains. The sun was rising and Eric hadn't come back yet. I wonder if Celia will return, but I doubt it will. The bridge between us has been completely burned down. The only consolation was knowing that she would keep Felipe from harming me.Suddenly, there was a very loud thud at the door, and then another hour. My heart almost jumped in my throat, but then I remembered Eric said he'd knock twice. I reached for the gun, just in case.I watched the revolving door handle and when the door swung open I could barely absorb what I was seeing. Eric stood in the doorway. His body was covered in mud. Blood stains everywhere.“Eric?” I managed to whisper, but sti
CEO's Only Wife There will be no trial
“There will be no trial,” Kudo said. He started walking again, a fist resting on the back of his neck. “I know how it is. I don't want to believe it, but I know. I've been arguing with my boss for the past few hours. There will be…” Kudo seemed very flustered. “There will be a lot of arrest warrants, I'm sure. Those who are auctioned will no doubt be taken to a shelter, but… no justice will be served. Not the kind that those victims deserve.” "How can that be?" I sobbed. “How could you let that happen?” “Raymond is a senior officer in the Pakistani Army, Nana. His government will not allow a scandal to get out. They agreed to let our government take part in the raid on the condition that they keep their men out of the way. When the chaos is over, it's up to them to decide who's present and who's not, that's how international political organizations work." I felt like someone had just hit me in the chest with a heavy wooden stick. For the second time in my life, I understood Eric's
CEO's Only Wife Are you sick?
“Are you sick?” Eric whispered. His blond brows furrowed nervously. I've never seen him like this. He looks so happy and peaceful. I reached up and stroked his beautiful face. "I am fine." He wiped my eyes, "Then why are you crying?" "I don't know," I replied and continued to run my hand over his face. "I think I'm just happy." He smiled, "Strange reaction to happiness, but that's okay." He bent down and licked away one of my tears. I squirmed, “What are you doing?” I laugh. "I'm curious," he whispered seriously. "About what?" “Will happy tears taste the same as sad tears?” he replied. His words made me cry harder. I can't control them. I am overwhelmed by everything. "And?" I managed to ask. "I think they're sweeter," he replied, kissing me, "but maybe it's just your face." We burst out laughing. I heard voices. I sat up in bed. For a few seconds, I forgot where I was. The room is very small. There are bars on the window frames. The bed wasn't Eric's. “I can't come back
