For several days, Phoebe shut herself inside her home.

A sudden and overwhelming cold had hit her like a tidal wave, worse than she had expected, lingering stubbornly without any sign of improvement.

Even wrapped in layers of thick blankets, she still felt the cold seeping into her from every direction, leaving her shivering uncontrollably.

After taking her medication, she dragged her weary body back into bed, hoping that sleep might ease her discomfort and dispel the heavy weight pressing on her heart.

Just as she was about to drift off, a gentle knock came at the door, followed by Hermosa's soft voice from outside. "Phoebe, Gavin is here."

"Mom, I'm not feeling well. I'm lying down," Phoebe responded weakly.

Gavin had been coming over every day, but she had no desire to see him right now. She was still upset about the way he had abandoned her that day.

"Phoebe, Gavin has come several times already. Stop being stubborn. If there's something on your mind, talk it out with him properly

Hi Ako it oh, I just started a book called A Secretive Deal with my Billionaire Boss. So far it’s good, it’s funny the ML is also named Alexander who is also a dominant guy & the FL is an average girl trying to pay medical bills for her mom. A few similarities to this book but a ton of steamy scenes

    After lunch, Ryan and Anila exchanged a glance, instantly understanding each other.Ryan stood up, patted Gavin's shoulder, and said with a smile, "We're going out for a walk. You two should have a good chat."Anila also smiled and chimed in, "Yes, take this chance to talk things through."With that, the two turned and walked out, thoughtfully closing the door behind them.Phoebe naturally understood her parents' intention. She sat quietly in her chair, watching them leave. The room instantly fell silent, leaving only her and Gavin. A subtle tension and awkwardness filled the air.Phoebe slowly stood up, her gaze unfocused, and walked straight to the dining table, beginning to clear the dishes. Her movements were gentle yet somewhat mechanical, as if trying to bury her emotions in the act of tidying up."I'll help you."Gavin stood up as well, quickly stepping to her side. His voice was filled with care and warmth, his eyes never leaving her for even a second.Phoebe nodded slightly w

    Phoebe's heart clenched suddenly. After a brief moment of panic, she quickly regained her composure, bit her lower lip, and said firmly, "I don't want to see you."With that, she hurriedly hung up the phone. Her hands trembled slightly, and her mind descended into chaos.Slowly, Phoebe unzipped the back of her wedding dress, her movements sluggish and heavy. The dress slipped to the floor like a withering flower. Mechanically, she took a nightgown from the wardrobe, changed into it, and collapsed onto the bed, trying to erase the waves of turmoil that phone call had stirred in her heart.She kept telling herself: Sleep. Tomorrow, I need to be the most beautiful bride.But her thoughts refused to obey.What does he want?After all this time, he had vanished without a trace, not a single word from him.

    At that moment, she felt her nightgown being gently slipped off, a chill instantly washing over her. Then, her undergarments were undone, and she instinctively shivered.Soon after, she felt a cold, hard body press down on her, causing her heart to race uncontrollably.Her mind was in disarray, unable to comprehend why she felt the urge to respond. This unfamiliar sensation should have repulsed her, yet she found herself unable to control her own body."Phoebe, I want you," a magnetic voice whispered in her ear. It was so familiar, only that man could be so blunt."Phoebe, feel it, isn't it hard?" As he spoke, her hand was guided by a warm, large hand, slowly moving downward.When she touched that hard object, Phoebe's body trembled uncontrollably."Do you know how much I need you?" The familiar voice continued to murmur in her ear, laced with temptation.Simultaneously, a pair of hands began to roam over her snow-white body, each tou

    Tonight, Alexander was unusually patient. Unlike his usual urgency, he took his time, gently touching Phoebe's body, each touch seemingly imbued with a bewitching magic.At first, Phoebe was filled with tension, rejection, anger, and resistance. Her body was taut, every nerve stretched like a bowstring, ready to snap at any further move from Alexander.However, as time passed, an indescribable pleasure began to creep in, wave after wave, gradually overwhelming her. Under this onslaught, her mind went blank, and the defenses of her rationality crumbled under the erosion of pleasure.In this matter, Phoebe deeply understood that she was never a match for Alexander.He was like a master manipulator of emotions and desires, able to control her at will, while she had no power to resist, only to struggle in this vortex."Darling, do you want it?" Alexander's voice was like a beast's roar from hell, rough yet filled with temptation."No," Phoebe wh

As a result, the ceremony was far more understated than originally planned.Phoebe stood quietly at the entrance of the church, her delicate veil gently draping over her face. Clad in a magnificent wedding gown, she looked like a princess straight out of a fairy tale—pure, beautiful, and ethereal.Yet, beneath this seemingly perfect façade, her heart churned with turmoil, waves of emotion crashing uncontrollably within her.A distinct, masculine scent drifted through the air, pulling her from her trance. She instinctively forced a stiff smile.The wedding proceeded smoothly, without any unexpected interruptions—just as Phoebe had anticipated.

Every so often, he glanced up at the tightly shut emergency room doors, then down at his watch, muttering under his breath, praying for time to pass more quickly.At last, the emergency room light switched off, and the doors slowly opened. The doctor wheeled Phoebe out.Ryan and Anila immediately rushed forward."Doctor, how is she?"

    The office clock struck five. For the third time, Phoebe glanced down the empty hallway.She clutched her phone, scrolling through her contacts again and again. Five missed calls, no one in the office, and his phone still lying quietly in the drawer—where on earth had he gone?Her reflection in the glass window revealed a furrowed brow. They had clearly agreed to leave at four. Even if something urgent came up, he should've at least found a way to let her know.When the six o'clock dismissal bell rang, Phoebe finally grabbed her bag. In the rearview mirror, the neon sign of the kindergarten glowed vividly against the twilight.The car phone suddenly rang. The unfamiliar number made her hand tremble slightly."Phoebe."That familiar voice made her heart settle—only to twist a moment later. "You're at the hospital? Are you hurt?""It's Hermosa. Acute appendicitis,"he said, hospital announcements echoing faintly in the

    The morning passed in a slow, steady rhythm, the hours slipping by almost unnoticed.By the time Phoebe returned to the office after lunch, the clock on the wall pointed to half past two.Alexander's lingering kiss still burned on her lips, leaving her ears warm and flushed. She instinctively smoothed her slightly tousled hair, and when her fingers brushed against her heated earlobe, a soft smile tugged at her lips.In the break room, the moment the hot water hit the tea leaves, a delicate fragrance wafted through the air.Phoebe cupped the warm mug in her hands, and through the rising steam, she could almost see him again—his fingers laced tightly with hers, confidently leading her through the office in full view of everyone.He never hid their relationship. That unabashed affection of his… it made even her tea taste sweet.When only a few unfurled leaves remained at the bottom of her cup, Phoebe rubbed her slightly sore eyes.

    The next morning."Mom, are we going to Grandma and Grandpa's tonight?" Amy clung to the edge of the table, her eyes sparkling with excitement.Phoebe nearly dropped the plate in her hand. "Hmm?" She was sure she hadn't said anything about that to the kids."Uncle said so," Amy replied confidently, swinging her legs under the chair.Phoebe glanced out the window at the man polishing the car in the driveway. Her fingers tightened unconsciously around the plate. She'd thought he was just talking offhandedly—but he actually meant it? A wave of warmth rose in her chest, only to be washed over by a ripple of unease. Would her parents even be friendly to him? Her mother hadn't said much during their last phone call, but the sigh she'd heard through the receiver still echoed in her ears."Mom?" Amy tugged at her sleeve.Phoebe crouched down and gently smoothed her daughter's crooked collar. "Of course we're going.""Yay!" Jeremy jumped up from his chair with a loud clatter of utensils. "I ha

    Alexander's deep voice rumbled against her ear, and Phoebe could no longer hold back the tears welling in her eyes. Warm drops slid down her cheeks as she stood on tiptoe and clung tightly to his neck, burying her tear-streaked face into the crook of his shoulder. Her slender shoulders trembled uncontrollably.Those three words were far too heavy—so heavy, they made her chest ache.He immediately wrapped his arms around her, gently stroking her back with the flat of his palm. Suddenly, Phoebe clenched her fists and began pounding his chest, each hit harder than the last."You bastard..." she sobbed into his shoulder. "You've made me cry so many times..."Yet even so, hearing his confession now, all those scars seemed to vanish into insignificance. Love was ridiculous like that—no matter how deeply wounded, the heart still surrendered without hesitation."Say it again," she whispered, lifting her tear-soaked face, her nose bright red.Alexander chuckled lowly and brushed her damp cheek

    "Mom, you don't have a boyfriend, and Uncle is such a good guy. Can't he be your boyfriend? Can't he be our dad?""Yeah, Mom, just think about it!"Phoebe kept her expression neutral. This wasn't something that could be decided so easily.She wasn't about to let him off that easily. Especially after what Hermosa said earlier… What exactly did she mean by those words? And that look of surprise on her face—what was that about?Every time she thought about it, a heavy pressure settled on her chest. It felt like they were hiding something from her.She told herself not to overthink it. But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't stop the wild guesses running through her mind.Maybe... maybe it was time to ask.And he owed her a real explanation."Mom?"Her thoughts snapped back to the present. The kids were looking up at her with hopeful eyes. They really cared about her love life, it seemed. And clearly, they liked Alexander a lot.Of course she knew what they were trying to do. But a

    Phoebe's fingertips trembled slightly as she stared blankly at Hermosa's pale face. That name always pricked at her memory like a needle—Melissa's curly hair, the unopened photo frame in Alexander's study—all flashing before her eyes now."What a coincidence. Running into you here," Hermosa said, her face still drained of color.Phoebe forced a smile. "Yeah, what a... coincidence."She quickly added, "What are you doing here?""My stomach was acting up, so I came to get something for it. You?""Oh, me? I..." Phoebe's throat tightened. Instinctively, she crushed the box of birth control pills hidden behind her back. She only realized where Hermosa's gaze had landed when it was too late. Embarrassed, she moved her hand behind her again. "I was just buying... medicine."As Hermosa turned to leave, the hem of her trench coat brushed past Phoebe's wrist, sending a chill straight to her bones. Hermosa suddenly paused. Under the harsh fluorescent lights, her profile looked almost transparent

    When Alexander stepped into the bathroom, he found Phoebe resting peacefully in the bathtub, eyes closed. A soft flush still lingered on her cheeks, a trace of pleasure not yet fully faded. Her face looked like a ripe peach, pink and dewy, waiting to be picked.He walked over quietly. She must have heard him—her thick lashes fluttered as if she wanted to open her eyes. But she was too exhausted, not even a finger moved.Alexander chuckled softly, gazing at her delicate face. He'd really worn her out today.He reached down and gently stroked her silky cheek. He'd intended to call her for dinner, but looking at her now, sleep seemed more fitting.Scooping her out of the water, her smooth skin against him made his body stir again—but he held himself back.He dried her carefully, then laid her on the bed. The marks he'd left on her body filled him with a certain pride, but as he inspected the swollen red tenderness between her thighs, a pang of guilt twisted in his chest. He'd been a litt

    The sound of running water from the bathroom came to an abrupt stop. Less than three minutes later, Alexander stepped out, a towel slung low around his waist, his damp hair dripping, sun glinting off his bronze skin."Do I have a good body?" he asked with a cocky arch of his brow, the towel hanging precariously low, revealing the sharp V-lines at his hips.Phoebe turned away, stubborn as ever. "Male models look better."His expression instantly darkened. The towel slipped to the floor, and he didn't seem to notice—or care.Phoebe's eyes widened, her pupils dilating as the sight in front of her hit like a punch to the gut. That bastard. He was doing it on purpose—always flaunting his raw, masculine power right in front of her like a predator marking territory."Have you tried one?" he asked, closing the distance between them. The sharp scent of cedarwood from his body wash filled her nose."They're all online!" she stammered, stumbling backward until her lower back hit the nightstand.

    He wanted all of her—completely—until she melted beneath him like snow in spring.Tears still clung to Phoebe's lashes, her flushed cheeks pressed against the sofa armrest. She heard his husky laugh fall from above."Tired?"A muffled sound escaped her throat. She didn't bother answering such a pointless question. It felt like her bones had been taken apart and reassembled—dull pain laced with an electric numbness that left a tremor with every breath.She thought back to the wildfire burning in his eyes, the near-manic hunger in his touch. He didn't seem like a man who'd gone five years without a woman—more like someone hell-bent on satisfying a lifetime of cravings in a single day."Get up..."She pushed weakly at his arm, her limbs as soft as cotton, but before she could finish, he pinned her wrist against the couch. The scent of sweat and cedar clung to him, invading her senses as she tilted her head back, only to be caught in the lingering embers in his gaze."One more time," he m
