Flash Marriage With My Ex's Brother The Challenge
*****************CHAPTER 117~Acer's POV~The club was dimly lit, the kind of place where the lights were low, the music was expensive, and the drinks even more so. Perfect for unwinding, or scheming—whichever came first, just like how Kelvin loved to call it.I slid into the leather booth, where Kelvin and David were already halfway through their drinks. Kelvin raised his glass in greeting, and David nodded.“About time,” Kelvin muttered. “We were starting to think you got lost in the city.”“I don’t get lost,” I said, grinning as I grabbed the drink waiting for me. “I just take scenic routes.”David smirked. “You always had a way with dramatic entrances.”I leaned back, sipping the whiskey. It was smooth. Just how I liked it.We talked shop for a bit—business, upcoming deals, the usual power-play conversation. Then Kelvin pulled out his phone, flicked to a picture, and slid it across the table toward me.“By the way, David’s been losing sleep over this one,” he said, half-laughing.

*****************CHAPTER 119~Kaia’s POV~Walking into Apex Global that morning felt like slipping into a familiar suit of armour.The moment I stepped through the revolving doors, the crisp chill of the air conditioning clung to me hard. I had barely slept, but I dressed sharply—black fitted trousers, a white blouse, a blazer, and heels that clicked purposefully against the marble floors.No more hesitation. No more distractions.I was here to work.As I approached the executive wing, Blaze’s secretary stood up from her desk, her hands folded professionally.“Good morning, Mrs. Black,” she greeted with a small nod. “Mr. Black is in his office… but there’s someone inside waiting for you.”I arched a brow. “Waiting for me?”She nodded. “Yes. He said it’s important.”“Right.” I adjusted my blazer and walked up to the double doors.I knocked once before pushing them open.Blaze stood near the windows, hands in his pockets, staring out like he was too focused on anything but the tension

**************CHAPTER 1My head throbbed, each beat matching the slow, pulsing ache behind my eyes as I squinted against the morning light pouring into the hotel room. I reached for my phone, hoping to check the time, but froze at the sight of an unread message. Blinking, I rubbed my temples, half afraid of what awaited me."Congratulations on your marriage. Here's your wedding picture. Happy married life!"My heart skipped, and I bolted upright, instantly regretting the movement as nausea washed over me. With trembling fingers, I opened the attachment. There it was—a photo of me and a tall man, his face shadowed, holding a marriage certificate. I was laughing, eyes slightly glazed, looking deliriously happy, even if I could barely recognize myself."This has to be a mistake."Panic rushed through me as the events of last night trickled back—the music, the drinks, the stranger who seemed to understand my every unspoken word, the wild thrill of something forbidden, something I sho

**************CHAPTER 2I swear I did not understand him. What did he feel like? We were both doing this for our selfish gain. Why did it seem like I had just dug my grave?I shook my head, tossing the thought to the back of my mind as I drove home. My eyes flickered to the card on my dashboard before focusing on the road. I arrived at my parents' house, ready to tell them the news, when my father's cold voice made me stop. "She did what? Kaia broke the marriage?"I inhaled. I should have expected this. Shawn would make a fuss trying to use my parents to control me. Stepping into the living room, I met my parents, both dressed for the occasion. My dad had his phone pressed to his ear, clearly in a conversation with that cheat."Dad." He froze, ending the call and turning to look at me. My eyes glanced around, taking in the sight of my mother seated opposite him, watching with a worried expression on her face, "Mum, I can't marry a jerk. I know he is well to do, but he is a cheat."

**************CHAPTER 3While my mind played around my new surname, Blaze's estate came into view. It was breathtaking. Every inch of it was grand and meticulously designed. A butler led me through the vast, silent halls until I found myself in a lustrous living room, and there he was, standing with his usual stoic expression. My heart skipped, but I forced myself to act calm. He did not say anything more than a welcome after I greeted him before leading me into a private study.I sank into the leather chair across from him, feeling the pressure in the air. He slid a thick stack of papers across the desk. "This is the contract," he explained calmly. "The essentials are straightforward. For now, we'll present ourselves as a couple to our immediate families and a few close friends. No one else needs to know."I frowned, staring at the words in front of me. "Then why even bother with the marriage? Wasn't the whole point to keep people off our backs in the first place?"I know I sounde

**************CHAPTER 4~Kaia's Pov~For a second, I couldn't believe it. Termination? I opened the email and read the brief, cold message from HR. Effective immediately, my employment was terminated.Shock, confusion, and then anger hit all at once. It didn't take three guesses to know who was behind this. Shawn. His revenge for me left him, a way to punish me for not playing along. I could practically hear Shawn's smug laughter behind it, but instead of feeling defeated, I just felt… angry. So typically stupid.But I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of watching me fall. Setting the phone down, I took a deep breath. I'd wanted to leave that job anyway; all he'd done was speed up the process. My mind raced with possibilities. I knew exactly what my next move was going to be.I set my jaw and fetched my laptop from my bag, the only belongings I picked from my parents' house. Thankfully, I had spent a night there before my bachelorette to tend to some pressing work and left it the

**************CHAPTER 5~Kaia’s POV~By the following day, I had nearly forgotten about Shawn’s antics. Since we planned the wedding for Sunday, normal life began shortly after.Until now, I have not bothered to switch on my phone and have allowed myself some well-deserved rest while my brain has been replaying Shawn's betrayal. One might have found this stupid, seeing as I was straining my brain with pain and hurt but the truth was, I needed to remind myself why men were scum.I switched on my phone as an influx of messages came through but I ignored them, placing my phone on the table. I knew I owed people like my two best friends an explanation but now was not the time. I had lost a job and needed a new one ASAP. Six months may be long but it would be over quickly. I needed to secure a prosperous future for myself.I was still waiting to hear back from the companies I’d applied to when my phone buzzed with an email notification. Skimming the message, my eyes widened. It was an

**************CHAPTER 6~Kaia’s POV~He sat there, impossibly relaxed, his sharp suit tailored to perfection. That infuriating smirk tugged at his lips as if he’d been expecting this exact reaction. My bag slipped from my fingers, landing with a thud that echoed.The door open and the HR rep’s head popped in; her expression tinged with nervous energy when she darted her gaze frm me to Blaze. “I’ll just, uh, leave you two to it,” she stammered before retreating like she’d seen a ghost.I stood motionless, my heart pounding against my chest. My mind raced, disbelief and fury sparking desires within me. Of all the people I could’ve imagined behind that desk, why did it have to be him? Finally, I managed to croak, “You’re the CEO?”His smirk deepened. “Surprise.”I could feel my blood boiling. “You didn’t think to tell me?”“Would it have made a difference?” His calm, almost amused tone made me want to scream.“Yes! It would have,” I shot back, squaring my shoulders. “I came here as H

*****************CHAPTER 116~Kaia’s POV~Ever since our little scandal situation with Crystal, I was glad Blaze wasn’t running to Shyne just yet. Even though he got angry with me, it was understandable, yet things still felt so shaky.My mind thought back to the vacation house we stayed at and how Snow was planning something about getting me pregnant. I shook my head, not wanting to think of it and focus on my drive back home.I hadn't spoken to David since then and I know he wanted to hear from me. I did not wish to play a game and dance in anybody’s hands anymore. Back home, I dropped onto the bed, still slightly damp from my workout. The silence in the room wrapped around me like a blanket I didn’t ask for.My phone buzzed. It was a message from the office.The meeting is scheduled for tomorrow, 9:30 AM, with Kayne Kyle and Kaia Black.Great.I stared at the screen for a long time, then tossed the phone on the bed.Why did it feel like I was being thrown into a fire that Blaze

*****************CHAPTER 115~Kaia’s POV~I was halfway through reviewing the quarterly reports when a knock came at the door."Come in," I said without looking up.My secretary stepped in, holding a sleek folder in her hands. "Ma’am, I wanted to inform you of a new assignment."I raised a brow, finally glancing up. She looked... hesitant. That immediately put me on edge.She placed the folder gently on my desk. "Effective today, you’ve been assigned to lead the negotiations on the Apex Global energy expansion project."I blinked. "Wait. What?""Kayne Kyle will be the lead from the investment firm’s side. You’ll be working directly with him over the next several weeks to secure the partnership terms."My mind froze for a second. Kayne Kyle? The same man from Draven’s files? This was… sigh."Does Blaze know about this?" I asked carefully, keeping my voice calm even as my pulse picked up.She nodded. "Yes, ma'am. He was at the meeting this morning when the announcement was made. His fa

*****************CHAPTER 113~Blaze’s POV~The morning came too damn fast.After what happened last night in the second parlour with Kaia, I didn’t sleep. I just couldn’t. All the while my mind kept replaying her words. They were stuck to me like a thorn—“You seem incapable of love.”I wasn’t even sure if I was angry, heartbroken, or just numb.But before I could make sense of it, I got a call from the office.Emergency board meeting. No warning prior but then again, it was my company, shig like this happened especially with my father as the Chairman.I left without seeing Kaia. Didn’t say goodbye. Didn’t even look toward her door when I passed it.She was probably still asleep… or pretending to be.By the time I got to Apex Global, the city was already moving like it had no time for heartbreak.As soon as I got in, the conference room buzzed with tension. I sat at the head, flipping through the project files, trying to stay focused, but my mind was scattered. My team filed in one b

*****************CHAPTER 113~Kaia’s POV~The city lights flickered in the distance as we pulled up to Blaze’s house. I didn’t say a word. Neither did he.I just wanted to be alone.Once inside, I headed straight for my room and let the silence swallow me. The hot bath I took was meant to relax me, but even with the steam and lavender-scented soaps, my thoughts wouldn’t settle. Still, I emerged feeling lighter. Not better, but… lighter.I slipped into a simple blue off-shoulder gown, the fabric soft against my skin. It cinched at the waist with a thin strap and fell just past my knees. My hair was damp, tumbling down my back, and for once, I didn’t bother taming it.I had one more thing to do before I could let this day go—I needed to check in on Blaze’s grandmother. The way I left… it wasn’t right.I needed to apologise and explain my sudden departure. She deserved that, at least.I walked softly through the hallway and stopped outside her room. My hand hovered over the door before

*****************CHAPTER 112~Kaia’s POV~I didn’t sleep that night. Not really. I lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, the waves crashing in the background like a metronome counting down to goodbye.Morning came too fast.I got up, showered, packed my suitcase, and took one long look at the view from the villa window. It was beautiful.But beauty didn’t mean peace.I zipped my bag and stepped out into the living room.Blaze was already there. He looked tired, like he hadn’t slept either. He stood when he saw me. “Kaia.”I didn’t give him a chance to speak.“This isn’t working,” I stated rather firmly, more so than I felt, so he did not try to sway me. “I need to go back.”To my surprise, Blaze didn’t argue. Didn’t ask me to stay. He just nodded once. “As you wish.” Even though I did not wish for it, the silence and stoic face he gave hurt the most.“Okay. See you later.”***************~Blaze’s POV~I watched Kaia walk away, her suitcase wheels rolling across the floor without wait
Flash Marriage With My Ex's Brother Vacation Gone Wrong
*****************CHAPTER 111~Kaia’s POV~I stormed into the bathroom and shut the door—not too hard, but enough to make a point. My fingers gripped the edge of the sink as I stared into the mirror. My reflection didn’t look as calm as I wanted to feel. I took a few deep breaths, trying to push back the swirl of emotions crawling under my skin.How was this even happening?Everything felt so sudden. One second, we were still untangling our mess, and the next, we were being shipped off to some luxury villa like we were on a second honeymoon. Not like we had one in the first place. Grandma meant well, but… this wasn’t how healing worked—not for me or us.I splashed water on my face and stood there, letting the cold sting pull me back to earth.When I finally walked out, Blaze was on the couch in the living room, his shirt sleeves rolled up, fingers sliding across his iPad as he scrolled. The villa was silent except for the gentle hum of the AC and the occasional rustle of palm leaves

*****************CHAPTER 107~Kaia’s POV~We arrived at the vacation suite later in the night. I stood outside the private villa, arms crossed tight over my chest. The soft breeze from the ocean did nothing to calm the irritation bubbling inside me."This is ridiculous," I muttered.Blaze sighed beside me, rubbing his temple like he was the one being ambushed. "I didn’t plan this.""Sure you didn’t," I snapped, dragging my suitcase across the smooth stone floor and inside before I said something I’d regret.The villa was stupidly perfect. Warm lights. Floor-to-ceiling windows that framed the beach like a painting. A giant bed with silky sheets that screamed honeymoon. There was even a jacuzzi out on the terrace, already bubbling like it had been expecting us.I didn’t care. I stomped in anyway.Blaze shut the door behind us and loosened his tie, eyes trailing after me as I flung my bag onto the bed and started unpacking. A little more violently than necessary. Okay, a lot more if I
