Hired Fiance Chapter 99
Emma's POV " What's wrong with you? How can you even think that you are not capable of loving? I will never regret marrying you. And if you do not agree, I will never marry. Tell me, do you think, I will be happy then? " He asked me, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. " Why?? Why can't you marry some nice girl, who could love you back? You deserve to be loved back, I am very frigid, never felt anything for anyone. " I was hell-bent to convince him." You are a very nice girl and I want to marry you." " But after we get married, you will expect me to... I mean... Please, Ryan, try and understand. I will not be able to reciprocate. You will never be happy. " I said looking into his eyes. " Don't make excuses, if you don't want to marry me, say that you don't want to directly. " I said as I was thoroughly irritated now. " I am not lying. " " No!! I have seen the way your body reacts to mine..." " No! I get uncomfortable. " " Ok, fine!! I would rather have a Frigid Bride

Emma's POV Flashback..." Emma, will you please marry me and make me the happiest man on this planet? " He asked. Tears welled up in my eyes as I nodded slowly. “Okay,” I whispered. “Okay, Ryan. I’ll marry you.”A smile broke across his face, the purest, happiest smile I had ever seen. And in that moment, I knew that, despite all my fears and doubts, this was the right decision. Because with Ryan, I felt something I had never felt before—a sense of belonging, of being truly seen and accepted for who I was.As he kissed me, softly and sweetly, I felt the first flicker of hope that maybe, just maybe, I wasn’t as broken as I thought. Maybe, with Ryan’s love, I could learn to love myself and, in turn, love him the way he deserved.My heart was in my throat. “Ryan, I’m scared,” I admitted.“I know,” he said, his thumb gently caressing my cheek. “But I’ll be here, every step of the way. You don’t have to do this alone.”And for the first time in a long time, I allowed myself to believe in

Emma's POV I could picture it already, the two of us standing under the bright lights of Las Vegas, the world melting away until it was just the two of us.“And Eva?” I asked quietly, my voice tinged with uncertainty. “What if she feels upset that we didn’t wait?”Ryan smiled, a soft, understanding smile that made my heart flutter. “We’ll tell her together, and I’m sure she’ll understand. She loves you, and she knows how much we mean to each other. This is our moment, Emma. Let’s not let it slip away. Say, yes, please! " I bit my lip, my mind racing, but deep down, I knew my answer. I loved him, wanted him. And for once in my life, I wanted to do something purely for myself, for my happiness.“Alright,” I whispered, my voice trembling with a mix of excitement and fear. “Let’s do it. Let’s go to Las Vegas and get married.”Ryan’s face lit up with a grin that made my stomach flip. He leaned, pressing a quick, passionate kiss to my lips. “You won’t regret this, Emma. I promise you.”"

Emma's POV Ryan stood at the altar, his eyes never leaving me as I walked towards him. I felt my heart swell as I saw the emotion in his gaze, the love that radiated from him like warmth from the sun. He was everything I had ever wanted and more.As we exchanged vows, the words seemed to come naturally, as if we had always known what to say.“Emma,” Ryan began, his voice steady but thick with emotion, “From the moment I met you, I knew you were different. You challenged me, pushed me, and made me a better man. I promise to love you every day, to support you, and to stand by your side no matter what life throws at us. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with you, making new memories, building our future together.”Tears welled up in my eyes as I said my vows, my voice trembling but clear. “Ryan, you’ve shown me what love really is. You’ve been patient with me, even when I was difficult, and you’ve loved me unconditionally. I promise to love you with all my heart, to be your part

Emma's POV The car ride was short, the neon lights of the Strip blurring past as we made our way to the hotel. It was a place we had chosen together, a blend of luxury and intimacy, somewhere we could begin our new life together away from prying eyes. The city outside was alive with energy, but inside the car, there was a different kind of electricity, one that crackled between us, unspoken yet undeniable.When we arrived at the hotel, Ryan helped me out of the car, his hand warm and reassuring in mine. The lobby was grand, with marble floors and glittering chandeliers, but all I could focus on was him. As we checked in, I felt a flutter in my chest, a mix of anticipation and nervousness. This was it—our first night as husband and wife. The thought sent a shiver down my spine, because of fear, not of excitement. I hope he doesn't get disappointed. What if he gets annoyed because I can't respond to him as he wanted? Everything was about to change, and I was not sure if I was ready

Emma's POV Ryan’s hands slid down my arms, his thumbs brushing lightly over my skin, sending a shiver through me. I was hyper-aware of every sensation, every touch, as though my body was teetering on the edge of something unknown and terrifying.“You’re shaking,” he observed, his voice tinged with concern. “Emma, please talk to me. What’s going on in that beautiful head of yours?”I hesitated, the words lodged in my throat, choking me. How could I tell him that I was afraid? That despite all the love I felt for him, I feared my body would betray me? I feared I wouldn’t be able to respond to him in the way he desired, in the way a wife should.Finally, I found my voice, though it was shaky and uncertain. “I—I’m just… scared, Ryan.”“Scared?” He tilted his head slightly, his brow furrowing. “Of what? Me? ”“Of… of disappointing you, I told you that I was... That I won’t be able to… to satisfy you.” I whispered, my eyes dropping to the floor, unable to meet his gaze. The words hung in

Emma's POV The kiss was achingly slow, each movement of his lips against mine deliberate and careful, as if...as if, he was exploring new territory, testing the waters before diving in.The world around us seemed to fade, the only reality that mattered was the connection between our lips. His hand moved from my cheek to the nape of my neck, his fingers tangling gently in my hair as he deepened the kiss, still slow, still so tender, but with a growing heat that made my heart race. There was no rush, no urgency, just the steady build of something powerful, something that set my entire body alight with a sensation I hadn’t allowed myself to feel before.I could feel his other hand resting on my waist, his thumb stroking small, soothing circles against my skin through the fabric of my dress. It was such a simple touch, yet it sent sparks of electricity through me, heightening every sensation. The kiss grew deeper, more insistent, but never demanding. He was coaxing me, guiding me with a

Emma's POV For a moment, he just looked at me, his eyes searching mine as if he was memorizing every detail. He smiled, that beautiful, boyish smile that I had fallen in love with, and kissed me again, this time softer, more tender, as if sealing the promise we had made to each other.I felt my knees weaken, my heart racing as I melted into him, my hands slipping up to tangle in his hair. The world around us disappeared once more, leaving only the two of us, bound together by something deeper than words or vows. This was love in its purest form, untainted by doubt or fear. It was the love I had always dreamed of but never thought I would find.When we finally pulled apart, we were both breathless, our foreheads resting together as we tried to catch our breath. His hands still held my face, his thumbs gently stroking my cheeks, and I knew, in that moment, that I was exactly where I was meant to be."Welcome to forever, Mrs.Taylor," he whispered, his voice rough with emotion, and I fel

Emma's POV The hours that followed blurred together—Ryan by my side, holding my hand, whispering words of encouragement. He whispered words of encouragement, his gaze full of love and strength, his fingers tracing soft circles over my skin, soothing me. His strength became my strength, his voice a lifeline. Every time I looked into his eyes, I felt anchored, loved, and understood in a way that words could never express.At last, the moment came. I heard the first wail, and as they placed her in my arms, I felt the first weight of her in my arms and a rush of love so deep, it was overwhelming, and my heart expanded in ways I hadn’t thought possible. Ryan was beside me, his eyes fixed on her with a look of absolute awe. He kissed my forehead, his voice thick with emotion. “She’s beautiful,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. His hand cradled her tiny head, and he looked at me, eyes filled with gratitude. “Thank you, Emma,” he whispered, leaning down to press a tender kiss to m
Hired Fiance Epilogue
Emma's POV One month had passed since our island escape, and coming back to the life we’d built here felt different now—lighter somehow as if love had settled into every corner of our home. Ryan had slipped into our family life effortlessly, filling each day with small acts of tenderness that wove us closer together. For the first time in so long, I felt whole.But nothing could have prepared me for the morning. I realized my life was about to change once again.The signs were subtle at first—just an unusual fatigue, a lingering wave of dizziness now and then. I brushed it off as the after-effects of our busy schedules. But soon the signs became clearer, and I found myself looking down at a positive pregnancy test, a swirl of emotions overwhelming me. I sat there, staring at it, joy and disbelief intermingling. I was going to have another baby.Ryan came home later that evening, his face lighting up as he saw me. He wrapped me in his arms, pressing a gentle kiss to my forehead. “Hey,
Hired Fiance Chapter 265
Emma's POV We headed back to our suite, but Ryan had one last surprise waiting for me. When we entered the room, the lights were dimmed, and the air was filled with the scent of jasmine and vanilla.A path of rose petals led to the bathroom, where a luxurious bubble bath had been drawn, candles flickering around the edges of the tub.“Ryan…” I gasped, turning to him with wide eyes. “Did you—?”He grinned, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing my cheek. “I figured after a day like today, you deserved a little pampering.”My heart swelled with love for this man, who knew exactly how to make every moment special. He led me to the tub, helping me slip into the warm, fragrant water before joining me. The bubbles rose around us, and I leaned back against his chest, closing my eyes as his hands massaged my shoulders.We sat in comfortable silence for a while, the only sound of the gentle lapping of the water and the soft flicker of the candles. It was peaceful, intimate, and everyth
Hired Fiance Chapter 264
Emma's POV After several hours in the sky, we began our descent, and I noticed a glimmer of turquoise below, almost like a hidden jewel nestled in a sea of endless blue. As we got closer, I could make out an island ringed with pristine beaches, the sunlight casting golden highlights across the sand. My heart skipped a beat as I took in the scene—the untouched beauty of white sand, palm trees swaying gently, the promise of secluded beaches.“This is…all yours?” I asked, a sense of disbelief coloring my words. It felt almost unreal.Ryan laughed softly, wrapping an arm around me. “Not just mine. Ours. Consider this our private retreat.The thought of it—an entire island, untouched and serene, where we could simply be together—sent a thrill through me. Once we landed, a small team greeted us, but they quickly disappeared after helping us settle in. It was just the two of us, alone in paradise.Ryan wrapped his arms around me from behind, pulling me close against him. I leaned into his c
Hired Fiance Chapter 263
Emma's POV Once we were certain that Daniel and Evan were safely behind bars, I felt like I could finally exhale. It was surreal to think that the shadows of their crimes—murder, kidnapping, so many lives shattered—were now confined, unable to reach us. The damage, though, still lingered, especially in Eva’s life.Daniel’s conviction allowed her to obtain a swift divorce and full custody of their son, Danny. But while she had her freedom, she deserved a chance at happiness too.Eva had been through unimaginable hardship, and now, with a young son, Danny, to care for, her life was far from settled. Thankfully, the charges against Daniel made it relatively easy for her to get a divorce and secure sole custody of Danny. Still, she was young and had lost much; it wasn’t right for her to face the future on her own.Ryan, in his characteristic way of looking after people, was the first to offer support. It was Ryan who first suggested a way to help her move forward. He introduced her to on
Hired Fiance Chapter 262
Ryan's POV As the officers secured him in handcuffs and began reading him his rights, I turned to Emma. She was still trembling, her arms wrapped tightly around herself as though trying to shield herself from the horrors she’d just endured. Her eyes, red and puffy from tears, met mine, and I saw a mix of relief and determination there.“Ryan,” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “There’s something you need to know.”I stepped closer, my hand brushing against hers in a gesture of comfort. “What is it?”She hesitated, glancing at James, who clung to my side, his small fingers gripping my shirt. I knelt, cupping his face gently.“It’s okay, buddy,” I murmured. “Everything’s going to be fine now.”I turned to one of the officers. “Can someone take my son outside? He doesn’t need to hear this.”An officer nodded, extending his hand toward James. “Hey, champ, why don’t you come with me? We’ve got some juice and snacks in the car.”James looked at me, uncertainty flickering in his wide
Hired Fiance Chapter 261
Ryan's POV With a swift kick, the door slammed open, the sound reverberating like a gunshot through the room. Evan spun around, startled but not surprised. He stood over Emma and James, both bound to chairs. My heart clenched as I took in their faces—pale but alive, their eyes widening in shock and relief at the sight of us.“Emma,” I murmured, my voice low but filled with urgency. “It’s alright. I’m here.”Relief seemed to flood through her, and she nearly collapsed in the chair as if she had been holding her breath, the tension finally breaking. But there was no time to rest. Evan was already recovering, his face twisted with rage.“You,” he spat, his voice dripping with hatred. “Always ruining everything.”“This ends now, Evan,” I said, “You’ve done enough.”Evan laughed, “Oh, you think you’re the hero now? After everything you took from me?”My jaw tightened, and my fists clenched at my sides. “I didn’t take anything from you, Evan. You did this to yourself.”Evan’s face twisted
Hired Fiance Chapter 260
Ryan's POV Just ahead, I saw tire marks in the mud, leading away from the area. I crouched down, examining them, my mind racing. I followed the impressions of the tires in the mud and was shocked by what I saw ahead.I saw a car, just like mine, with the same number.What the hell?He used this to make them think it was me, not him, so they’d believe him.I saw a candy wrapper lying there—a Swiss chocolate candy I’d bought for my son. I picked it up, frustration coursing through me, a flood of helplessness rising with it. I was used to solving problems with precision, but here, every step felt like I was grasping at shadows. Emma and James were out there somewhere—alone, scared, with that monster.Gritting my teeth, I swore I’d kill that man. For the first time in years, I felt powerless, as if everything I valued was slipping through my fingers.Finally, the team managed to pinpoint Emma’s phone’s last ping just outside an abandoned cottage—the perfect hiding place. A surge of deter
Hired Fiance Chapter 259
Ryan's POV Then, the final revelation, the one that sent a chill through my veins. “Evan doesn’t just want to ruin you, Ryan,” Daniel said, his eyes glinting with perverse satisfaction. “He wants to be you. He’s been planning this for months. Changing his look, studying you—down to your bloody mannerisms. He’s got a way out, a clean record. No one would question it if he walked right back into your life, because no one would know.”The room fell silent, his words hanging in the air, heavier than anything I’d imagined. Evan planned to kill us, to eliminate every trace of my existence, and then live as me—he’d done everything necessary to erase his old life and assume mine, seamlessly.The realization gripped me like a vice. Emma and James were in the hands of a man who was not only ruthless but methodical, who wouldn’t hesitate to kill them just to ensure his twisted plan played out perfectly. I could feel the rage, the cold, calculated fury that settled deep in my bones, overriding t
