Axel Lysander is a business tycoon who is generally known as the cold hearted billionaire. He never interacts with women except on a professional basis. He is arrogant and mean to everyone, and does not care about how people feel. He has never fallen in love in his life. The first day his heart races is the day he meets Claire McLennie at the airport. When this fearless young woman awakens in him feelings he does not even know exists, he knows he has to keep her close. Claire McLennie carries a lot of baggage. Her past is one big mess she is trying to run away from. Running takes her halfway across the world, all the way to New York and into the hands of Axel Lysander, the cold hearted billionaire. Their first meeting is the beginning of a chain of events that will rock her world. She has no idea the effect she has on the business tycoon, and he is bent on letting her know just how much she affects him. Claire wishes nothing more than to start a new life, and falling in love with a cold hearted billionaire is not an option. When the deep, dark secrets of her past come to light, when the whole world seems to be against her, when her life is turned upside down a second time, will he stand by her side? Or will he join the world and watch her burn?

CHAPTER 1

Claire was having a wardrobe battle with her best friend. "It's a special day!" Danielle pulled a bunch of clothes out of their shared wardrobe and added them to the tall pile on the bed. "Don't go dressing like the poor kid from an almost non-existent town." Claire sighed. "But I am a poor kid from an almost non-existent town, D." Danielle threw up her hands in exasperation. "Okay, here's what we are going to do." She picked up a sleeveless blouse, a pair of corporate trousers and a blazer. "You are going to look like an accomplished young lady who has gotten her degree and is now on her way to work at the conglomerate of all companies, Lyn Corporation." "Fine. Let's have it your way." She collected the clothes and headed for the bathroom. "I don't feel it though." "What?" Claire paused, her hand on the doorknob. "I don't feel like an accomplished lady. I feel like a terrified little girl running away from a monster." She entered the bathroom and pulled the door shut. Turning ...

CHAPTER 2
Axel Lysander was not a man who liked to yield. Neither was he a man who appreciated things not going according to plan. He was many things, but patient. Except when conducting delicate business, that is.Today had not been a good day. The Creek Falls committee meeting had not turned out well. Sudden demands that had not been previously expressed were suddenly brought to the table. All he wanted to do was open a branch of his company in the small and useless town, which would have given them a lot of benefits. Maybe even more benefits than they deserved. Axel could now see why the town never really grew. Each time they were presented with a once in a lifetime opportunity, all the townspeople committee members could think about was getting as much as they could from their prospective developer. They didn't care what they lost, those greedy people. Axel had heard stories about their lack of foresight, but he had seen it in all of them today. The whole lot were idiots. The last thing t

CHAPTER 3
Claire simply could not get over the way the rich guy looked. She sat at the back of the plane, by the aisle, staring at his profile. She should have been thinking about what made him suddenly change his mind and let her take the flight, but she didn't want to. She couldn't.She had sent a quick text to Danielle and had gotten an even quicker reply. Her friend must have been so worried that she stayed by the phone. She assured her that she would get on the flight and will call as soon as she landed. She could not wait to tell Danielle everything.Danielle was an amazing listener, and an even better support system. She always talked about anything on her mind, and Danielle would break every bit down and classify them. She basically sorted her thoughts, like one would the laundry.The announcement to put on seatbelts came over the speakers overhead and Claire settled in for the long flight. It would take them about sixteen hours to reach New York, and Claire was not looking forward to t

CHAPTER 4
Lisa knew she looked downright evil, but she couldn't bring herself to care. How could Claire wiggle her way into Axel's heart so quickly, when she had been trying so hard for years? She knew the moment he pulled up her profile that his cold heart had taken a solid punch. The cracks in his icy nature were very obvious. He even invited her to join them for lunch!Anger had made her leave the compartment earlier. She needed a good plan, and fast. She could not let a nobody like her take Axel away from her. Finding out about her basic information was easy. Claire McLennie was born and bred right there in Creek Falls. Her profile was not so interesting in Lisa's point of view.She had never travelled out, and all the schools she attended were public schools. Her file was inaccessible. Lisa thought that was odd and called her investigator."What do you mean, you can't access it?""It's exactly as I said." Lisa tried opening the file again with her phone. "It's asking for an encryption key.

CHAPTER 5
Axel knew Donald was baiting him again, but he couldn't bring himself to care. Her question had stumped him. Granted, all she had done since he had met her was surprise him. He had not been paying any attention to what Lisa was telling him. All he heard was her voice as she reacted to Donald's teases. She even teased him right back! Lisa was right. He had changed. He had never enjoyed female company. Now, all he wanted was for their banter not to end. He sat back in his seat and let Donald work his magic. Donald was more than a friend to him. They had been together through thick and thin. Anyone who could pass Donald's "like" test was one step closer to being Axel's acquaintance. He completely trusted his judgement, and apparently Donald was quite taken by Claire. It was not easy for Donald to trust anyone. His background made sure of that. Yet, Claire had snuck past all the walls of hate that injustice had built in his heart. She had snuck past all of Axel's defenses too, and so eas

CHAPTER 6
Claire didn't know why Axel took her side. No matter how much she thought about it, she always arrived at the same conclusion. He had nothing to gain from defending her. In fact, he stood to lose. Afterall, Claire did not want an enemy like Lisa. She was simply too vicious.Claire was happy she would not be around her anymore. After this flight, she hoped to never see Lisa ever again. She would miss Donald, but well, that was life. As for Axel…she grudgingly had to admit that an hour of lunch with him had made her feel that maybe there was more to him than the arrogance he projected.She also felt it would be good to stay away from him. He was starting to affect her in ways she didn't even want to dream about. If she ever thought about it, all she saw in the end was disaster. She couldn't wait to get off the plane, get settled, and start her life, away from these people who were way higher than her social class.She couldn't sleep again, so she resorted to staring out the window for t

CHAPTER 7
Claire completely forgot about the near death experience as soon as she stepped foot in her apartment. Tears quickly filled her eyes as she looked around at what she could call hers."You've out done yourself this time, D." She had been willing to settle for a rundown apartment in the slums of New York, but Danielle was not hearing of it. She refused to take any money from her friend, so Danielle made her work her backside off to save enough money for the down payment on the apartment.Danielle insisted on paying the rest, asking Claire to return the money if she so wished once she started earning. Now, Claire was glad Danielle had insisted. From the plush sofas to the rugs on the floor and the marbled counters, it was obvious just how fortunate Claire was. It was not big or grand, but it was more than enough.The bedroom had an inbuilt walk-in closet, so Claire threw her carry-on bag inside, jumped on the bed, picked up the pillow and screamed into it. She took her phone from her po

CHAPTER 8
Lisa could not believe her ears. Was he so shameless to openly confess his feelings for Claire right in front of her? Donald gave her a satisfied smirk."You shouldn't have bought the dress." He leaned in and whispered. "Stop trying so hard."Lisa gave him a bored look. "I don't know what you're talking about."Donald gave her a knowing smile. "Sure."Axel cleared his throat quietly again and they were forced to cease their bickering."I'm open to ideas."Lisa smiled and placed a hand over Axel's on the table. "That's something you need to figure out for yourself, Ax. It's your first time in love and a wonderful moment. You should learn by yourself."Axel pulled his hand out from under hers and turned to look at Donald. Donald shrugged."You're asking the wrong guy, Axel. I've never been in any serious relationship."Axel sat back in his chair and moved it slowly to the left and right."I guess I'll have to do this on my own then." He stopped moving the chair when he was directly facin

CHAPTER 9
"What do you mean, your subject got away?"The person on the other end of the line stuttered. "Someone came in a car and drove her away.""Are you proud of yourself? I gave you just one job, to ruin her clothes so she will be late. That way, she is going to miss the interview. How difficult was that?""I'm sorry ma'am.""Oh, you will be, if that bitch gets the job!" Lisa yelled and disconnected the call.She sat in her car, heaving. Why was nothing going her way? At this rate, she would just have to do the job alone. She spied Axel's car turning into the parking lot and hurried out of her car to meet him. He nodded to her in greeting as he emerged from the driver's seat.Lisa looked around. "Where is Donald?""He said he had something to take care of.""And he didn't mention where he went off to?"Axel shook his head. "Why?"Lisa gave a delicate shrug. "It's an important day today. Surely he can't let anything go wrong. He has to be here to supervise most of the events."Axel bent in

CHAPTER 10
After Axel had left her at the car park, Lisa had gone to check if Claire had arrived at the interview hall. Sure enough, there she sat at the waiting room, talking to someone on the phone. Lisa moved over quickly to the other side to get a better view, but Claire must have seen her and stopped saying whatever she had planned to.Lisa stood in the hallway for a while, just breathing. She needed to control herself if she was going to get any of this done. When she was sure she would not suddenly lash out, she adjusted her outfit and walked in. She kept her head down, using one part of her hair to cover her face."Hello. Are you here for the interview?" She asked, staring down at her phone.She held her breath, praying Claire did not recognize her."Lisa?" Claire squinted at her. "What are you doing here?" Damn! Lisa thought, how did she recognize her so quickly? She brushed her hair back and looked up. She contemplated telling Claire that she owned the company, but decided against it.
