Roman’s POV

After breakfast, I gave my assistant; Harper, instructions to gather everyone in the conference room for a pre-shoot meeting.

Sitting on the center chair at the table, I listened and observed quietly to Harper’s prep talk. This was about to be our biggest marketing campaign since three years ago, and I wasn’t going to let it flop even the slightest bit.

“This campaign is all about blending luxury with an effortless sense of escape.” Harper began, gesturing to the large, polished screen that displayed a mood board filled with vibrant images of sun-kissed cliffs, sleek yachts, hot models, and luxurious villas.

“Think high-end, but relaxed. Sophistication with a touch of wanderlust. We want people to look at this and dream about escaping to the high life that Montgomery represents.”

My gaze shifted to Sienna who was seated close to an aggressively gum-chewing red haired model. Unlike the model, Sienna was seated calmly, her attention carried away by Harper.

    Sienna’s POV“Good morning, from Ibiza, where dreams become reality. I am here with the Montgomery Holdings, capturing an exclusive first look of their game changing rebrand. Luxury, freedom and power? It’s all here!”I walked past the media woman who was covering the event, my eye’s literally everywhere and my head on fire. There was just so much going on that I needed to keep keen eyes on.And even thought it felt overwhelming in a way, I loved it here. And I planned to make it my biggest comeback yet.My eyes caught the stylist fumbling restlessly with a model’s scarf. Catching on to the flaw, I hurried over to her.“No, no, no, Leila.” I called out, once I reached them. I had learned her name earlier for the sake of work familiarly. “The scarf isn't flowing right. Angle it to the left. It needs to look effortless, not forced.”Leila nodded and her assistant adjusted the scarf. I gave Leila an approving smile before heading to check on the photographer who was crouched behind the l

  • Chased by my Billionaire Ex-Husband    A Moment In the Yacht

    Sienna As I stepped onto the pristine deck of the yacht, a small smile crossed my lips. The scene in front of me felt like something out of a movie. The soft clink of champagne glasses as the models mingled with the Montogomery team, the upbeat lounge music blending with the sound of the waves lapping against the hull, it all felt too good to be true.For a moment, I felt anxious and my fingers reached for the fabric of my beach dress. Was I really supposed to be here? I mean, I deserved to, right? I was the campaign manager after all. Wasn’t I?But why was I still feeling like some imposter?“Care for a drink, Miss?” A server approached me, pulling me out of my thoughts. On his hand was a tray of champagne and there was a small polite smile on his face. “Yes, please.” I returned his smile and picked a champagne from his tray, grateful for something to occupy my nervous hand.Once the server was one, I took a small sip from my drink and my eyes scanned the crowd, hoping I would catc

    Sienna’s POV“Move the reflector to the right. We need more light on her face. No shadows under the jawline.” I pointed to the camera man as I stood by the monitors, my eyes flicking between the screen and the model. Nodding, the camera crew adjusted the reflector while the model continued to pose as the camera resumed clicking in rapid succession.Once they were done with that shoot, the crew hurried to the other end of the set where props were arranged around a white chaise lounge. It was the last day of the shoot and just like every good thing, I couldn’t believe that it had come to an end. Suddenly, three days of work seemed like only a day. I felt a small sense of sadness cross my heart as I watched the crew. I had only met them here, yet I was sure I would miss each and everyone of them dearly.I turned as my eyes took in the Ibiza beach again but I felt my heart leap suddenly as my eyes met with Roman’s. He was seated crossed-leg and under a shaded canopy with Harper standin

    Sienna’s POVI pushed open the door to my suite, rainwater still clinging on my hair. Taking off my damp clothes, I immediately stepped into the steaming shower. Once I was done, I wrapped myself in a fluffy robe and tied my damp hair into a loose bun. Just as I rounded up my makeup and started working on styling my hair, a soft knock came on the door.“Give me a second!” I announced from inside the room, then gave my face one last touch before padding over to the door.Opening it, I found a smiling housekeeper holding a black velvety package tied with a silver ribbon.“This just arrived for you, Miss.” She said warmly before handing over the package, alongside a small envelope. “Thank you.” I replied, reciprocating her smile as I took the package from her, then shut the door after she walked away. I stared down at the package in curiosity as I set the package on the bed. I wasn’t expecting any package from anyone, neither did I order anything from any store. Could it be a wrong pa

    Sienna’s POVAfter Harper left me to join his friend, I stood from the bar stool, swaying slightly as the alcohol pulsed through my system. I needed to pee and my bladder screamed at me to find the bathroom immediately.Gripping the edge of the counter for balance, I staggered toward the hallway, the noise from the party fading behind me as I navigated the dimly lit corridor. Suddenly, a presence stepped out from the shadows, blocking my path and almost causing me to jump off my skin in panic. I squinted my eyes past my drunk blurry vision to see that it was no other person than Sabrina. I huffed in frustration."Well, look who’s had one too many.” She flashed me a venomous smile as she scanned my body from head to toe, her arms crossed. Her nice girl facade was replaced with a bittered, mean girl demeanor now. Her true colors that only I got to see."What do you want, Sabrina?" I asked, blinking to focus my vision as my words slurred just a little. Sabrina’s smirk turned into a

    Sienna’s POV Pressing the sleek brass doorbell of Candice’s luxury apartment, I stepped back and waited for the door to be answered. As soon as our return flight from Ibiza touched the soil of New York City, I had dropped my things at my place and boarded a taxi here without any delays, anticipating to see Livvy. To hug her, see her warm smile again, and tell her how much I haf missed her.Less than a minute later, the door was pushed open from the inside and Candice’s cheerful face greeted me.“Omg! It’s you, Sienna!” She squealed in delight before throwing her arms around my neck in an embrace. I chuckled softly at her contagious happiness. “Mommy! You’re back!” A small voice came from behind Candice and she stepped aside, giving way for me to see Livvy running towards me, a plush teddy bear in her hand.“Sweetie!” My heart warmed instantly and I crouched to the ground, spreading out my arms to catch her in a hug just on time. Even though it had only been three days, it felt as

    Sienna’s POV“Kiss me. Kiss me, please.”The ghost of my plea from the campaign’s after-party fell on my ears as I stared at Roman’s tall, black-clad figure waiting for me by my doorsteps.“Fuck.” I cursed in my head. Why was he here? Did it have something to do with the after party?Embarrassed by my drunken plea of the night before, I had spent all morning before our return trying my best to have as minimal contact with Roman as possible.My heart beat raced and I dug my fingers subconsciously into my now palms. Did I maybe blurt out something else last night? About him being my ex husband or perhaps about Livvy being his daughter?God, please! Let it not be either of the options. The thought alone was horrifying. I tensed as he walked up to Livvy and I with a small smile gracing his face, meant to ease my mind. But it didn’t. Instead, it worsened my state of unrest. My grip on Livvy’s hand tightened and I pulled her closer to me protectively.“Mommy. Who is that man?” She asked m

Blake.” Ms. Helen returned my wave with a smile, which carried a subtle hint of confusion. “You look and sound really cheerful today. What’s the good news?”“Oh.” I laughed again, waving her off. “It’s just that the weather feels like today. I have a feeling we’re going to have a wonderful day today. Anyway, have a great day, Ms. Helen.”I waved at her again as I walked away and Ms. Helen chuckled good-naturedly, waving me back.As I strode down the hallway, my thoughts drifted back to Roman and the spicy event of last night. It felt like one of the dreams I had always had during these past years. Those dreams of when he would slip under the covers beside me and make sweet love to me.And

    Roman’s POVLying her back on the bed, I kept my eyes locked to hers in a hungry stare that mirrored hers. Then, I knelt before her and proceeded to strip off my shirt. My cock was hard as fuck. Harder than ever. And as much I couldn’t wait to fuck the daylight out of her, I wanted to savor every moment. Knowing how unpredictable Sienna could be, I knew that opportunities like this were rare. Yet, there was something hot and thrilling about the chase —the uncertainty only added to my attraction to her.I claimed her lips once more, my fingers quickly released the buttons of her corporate shirt. Her soft moan hummed against my mouth as my fingertips grazed her bare skin. Smirking, I deepened the kiss, my hands drifting down to her skirt, which I slid off, leaving her in lacy black lingerie. Then, I pulled back, my gaze raking over her. Seeing her half naked in front of me did so many things to my head and body that I couldn’t explain. The evidence of my desire lay in my swollen and

    Sienna’s POVBy the time I finished fixing the campaign file, the office was almost empty. Everyone else had already gone home except for me.I made sure to complete everything and send a copy to Ethan’s email before leaving. I couldn’t afford to make him any angrier with me than he already was. Once I was done, I cleared my desk, shut down my computer, and grabbed my handbag. Exiting the company building, I stepped outside, letting out a deep breath as the cool night air brushed against my skin.The streets were quieter now and the usual New York city rush had wind down. I stood by the curb, waiting for a cab when a sleek black SUV slowed down in front of me.The tinted window rolled down, revealing Roman’s ever-handsome face.“Need a lift, sweetheart?”His voice was teasing and his lips were curved into that signature smirk of his.I couldn’t help the small smile that tugged at my lips. A faint blush crept up my cheeks at his cheeky line, but I kept my posture firm and crossed my a

    Sienna’s POV“Honey, about the funds you promised for my charity…” Sabrina said to Roman, dabbing her lips with a napkin. “You said you’d send it this week. My team and I are visiting orphanages this weekend to distribute donations.”We were all seated at the dining table, having breakfast. Livvy and Riley were dressed in their school uniforms, ready to leave after eating. I was also preparing to head to work. I couldn’t wait to escape this awkward meal.And it made me wonder how much longer I would have to endure mornings like this while I lived here momentarily.“I’ll wire the money to your account when I get to the office.” Roman replied flatly, taking a bite of his food.“Here.” Livvy’s gentle voice came from beside me. She picked up the juice jug and leaned toward Riley’s cup. “Let me fill it for you.”I was just about to smile at her thoughtfulness when Riley’s cold response caught me by surprise.“I don’t need your help. I can do it myself.” Riley shoved Livvy’s hand away a lit

    Sabrina’s POVA sly smirk tugged at my lips as I watched Sienna step out of Roman’s car with her daughter. The housekeepers rushed to grab their bags and get them inside the mansion. Julian also stepped out to help them.Pathetic.From the balcony, I sipped my champagne, my fingers tightening around the glass as I watched Riley run out of the house, squealing with joy as she hugged Livvy. The sight of their happiness made my stomach twist —not with jealousy, but with amusement.If only Sienna knew what she was walking into. If only she had the slightest clue.I almost felt bad for her. Almost.But what truly made me laugh inside was how confident they were —Sienna and Julian. They thought they had everything figured out, thought they were so clever enough to outsmart me. Fools.I knew everything. All of their plans, everyso-called secret they shared in hushed voices when they thought no one was listening. I was always ten steps ahead. Did they really think I would leave myself ope

    Sienna’s POV“Sienna?” Candice’s voice pulled me from my stunned silence. I blinked, struggling to gather my composure.“Uh… sorry.” I muttered, my voice now uneven as I forced myself to focus. Candice’s face held a hint of concern, but before she could ask anything, I stood and extended my hand toward Julian, forcing a polite smile.“Nice to meet you, Julian.”He took my hand as he mirrored the same forced smile.“Candice has told me so much about you.” I added.“Same here.” He replied. His voice was calm, but his eyes never left mine.Our handshake lingered a second too long until Candice’s cheerful voice shattered the tension.“Now that my two favorite people are finally meeting, I think this calls for a celebration! I have this amazing old wine Ethan brought me from his last trip to Italy. Who’s in?!”“That sounds like a great idea.” I replied, watching as she bounced happily out of the kitchen.The moment she disappeared, my expression hardened. I turned sharply to Julian and my

    Sienna’s POV“You and Roman Montgomery were what?!”Candice nearly choked on her coffee, sputtering it out in shock. She barely missed me. Sitting across from me at the kitchen table in her apartment, she stared at me with wide eyes, trying to process what I had just told her.I had laid everything out —the past Roman and I shared, how we ended up here, our secret affair, Sabrina’s deceit, and Roman’s recent invitation for Livvy and me to move in with him and Sabrina for safety. At least until the person behind my attack was caught.As expected, Candice was absolutely floored.“This feels like an actual soap opera.” She shook her head in disbelief. “Like something straight out of a novel. I never thought things like this happened in real life.”I let out a small, resigned smile. “Well, it’s happening in mine.”Her expression darkened. “And Roman still doesn’t know you’re his real wife?”I shook my head, swallowing the ache in my chest. “No. He still thinks my look-alike bitch of a s

    Sienna’s POV I didn’t leave the hospital all because that psychopath Sabrina was there. And she had asked the doctors not to let me into Roman’s hospital room either because apparently, I was a ‘threat’. And so, I sat and waited at the waiting area. I couldn’t leave without seeing Roman. At least, to confirm the doctor’s words that he was fine. Plus, I didn’t trust Sabrina with Roman. That bitch was capable of anything. As I waited, I eventually dozed off on the bench. I wasn’t sure how long I had been asleep when I suddenly felt something light and feathery brushing against my face. I jolted awake in panic, my breath hitching, stopping as I was greeted by beautiful and concerned forest green eyes, his fingers caressing my face. “Roman.” I whispered, my voice light with relief. Without thinking, I jumped to my feet and pulled him into a tight hug. A wave of emotions crashed over me, making my eyes misty. “Ouch.” He grunted, followed by a low chuckle. Realizing I was pres

    Sienna’s POV“No!" I screamed as the man shoved Roman off him and used the opportunity to bolt for the door, escaping. My heart pounded as rushed to Roman and dropped to my knees beside him. He was lying there and groaning in pain with blood pooled beneath him, and the sight made my own blood run cold. My hands trembled as I hovered over his wound, unsure of what to do.“You're hurt.” I choked out, my voice shaking. Roman’s face had gone pale and his breathing was uneven. Yet, somehow, he wasn’t panicking. How could he be so calm with a wound this deep?!Instead, he gave me a weak smirk and said, "You're welcome, by the way."“Not funny.” I snapped through my tears. Pressing my hands against his wound, I tried to slow the bleeding. My other fingers fumbled as I grabbed my phone from the bed and quickly dialed 911.The call was answered after a few rings. "911, what’s your emergency?""Please, I need help!" I sobbed. "A man broke into my home and attacked me. He stabbed someone and

His lips were warm against mine, moving softly, but I remained frozen in shock, my heart pounding in my chest.As he kissed me, Candice’s words echoed in my mind.“I think my brother likes you.”My eyes widened even more. Did he…? Was Candice right? Did he actually like me?Snapping out of my daze, I quickly pulled away, stepping back as my face heated. Ethan looked just as stunned and his expression was unreadable, as if he couldn’t believe what he had just done.“I should go,” I said hurriedly, hearing my own unsteady voice.Ethan let out a breath, running a hand through his hair. “Sienna, I…”“Just drive me home.” I cut in, regretting my sharp tone the moment the words left my lips. He was still my boss, and no matter what had just happened, I had no right to speak to him like that. But my mind was a jumbled mess, and right now, I just needed to get away.To my relief, he didn’t seem upset. He hesita
