This is Book 3 of Billionaire series, it's a short Billionaire romance, The love story ofAaron Knight and Eternity Granger.This is a standalone novel.**************Eternity povSlowly and reluctantly, I uncover my face. I blink, close my eyes, and blink again. Streaks of sunlight penetrate the window and blind me. I sit up, drag my feet off the bed, and rub my knuckles into my eyes. I stretch my arms above my head and yawn.I live in my apartment in New York. Of course, I am 21 years old and I didn't live with my parents.My bedroom is small compared to the living room of my apartment, but I can still fit everything I need into it. I have a bed right in the middle of my squarish room, which takes up quite a bit of space, but I like it that way. You may find me laying there reading a book in the natural light coming through my window, which is my main source of light. The storage is great because it is hidden away above my wardrobe, which is built into the wall, although most of my
Seconds passed and I didn't feel any pain again. I cleared my eyes and my muscles got stiff.I noticed I was hovering over a man.He had tousled dark black hair, which was thick and lustrous. His eyes were a hypnotic deep crystal blue.Flecks of silvery light performed ballets throughout. His face was strong and defined, his features moulded from granite. He had dark eyebrows, which sloped downwards in a serious expression. His lips had drawn into a hard line across his face. His perfect lips are ripe for kissing. When our eyes meet each other, I feel time stop. Everything pauses, just him and me.The crystal blue colour swirled into an Atlantic blue as he gazed at me. I could feel myself becoming hypnotised by the changing colors.I could see wind-stirred waves in his eyes. If one were brave enough to enter their depths, all else would blur, and you'd fall so deeply in love that you'd choose to stay there, no matter what. Of that, I'm completely sure."What the hell, girl, if you don'
I felt dizzy while feeling my rushing adrenaline.I got a job at The Knight Industries as a Quotes and Add Designer in the Marketing and Advertising Department of The Knight Industries.I got an email from the company, Knight Industries, about my job acceptance. They are one of the best and biggest industries in the whole USA.It's mostly impossible to get a job there. I heard they hire the best of the best.Well, I have always been good at my studies from my childhood with great grades, but there are some dark memories as well. I shook my head. I don't want to think about it now, I thought.I have been searching since this morning in my wardrobe for what to wear. Normally I don't put so much effort into my clothing, but I have to give a good impression on my first day of work. It is, after all, The Knight Industries.Finally, after thinking and searching for so long, I found the perfect clothes.I put on a white blouse, a black fitted pencil skirt, and white heels. I applied only lip
Eternity's povAfter 2 weeksIt's been two weeks since I started working here at Knights Empire Industry.I must say, I enjoyed my work here. I mean, everyone is so friendly here with me except that arrogant Aaron Knight, owner, and CEO of the Knights empire.Avery, the receptionist whom I met on the first day, also ended up being my good friend.So, now I have a really interesting and amazing workplace.Well, before coming, I always buy coffee.One for Mrs. Elle Clark and receptionist Avery and, of course, for me, it's become my daily routineEternity's outfitI am wearing a black dress reaching below my thigh and wearing a white jacket above it with black boots. I tied my long brown hair into a ponytail.I was just getting away from Starbucks, grabbing a packet that contained three cups of coffee.Before I could make it towards the skyscraper of the Knight Empire,A man in a black hoodie. His face is covered with a cap of his black hoodie.He handed me a brown folder and said, "Keep
Eternity's povI glanced at her, and her face lacked the glimmer that every girl's face has at her wedding; her hopes had been destroyed. I looked at me.I'm wearing a lovely lace off-shoulder bridal gown. But my eyes are still swollen from sobbing all night. I used a lot of bb cream, concealer, and foundation to mask my tired face, but I still look like a crying mess.Since childhood, I've had a lot of wedding fantasies, as my maternal grandma used to say.Marriage isn't something you wear on your finger or sign on a piece of paper. It should be relished rather than endured. It's the coming together of two hearts that beat as one, each willing to make sacrifices for the happiness and well-being of the other. Marriage is so lovely that it would be a blooming rose in the natural world, with its dazzling petals permitted to unfold in the warm sunlight. Maybe that's why we offer roses to the people we care about and include them in our holy couplings so frequently. Marriage is a gift we
When we arrived to Knight's estate, I gasped as I saw the most magnificent huge mansion I had ever seen in my life.Knight's Estate was a large estate in one of Yorkshire's most picturesque areas.After all, it's Aaron Knight's lavender-scented mansion. The aroma brings out the delicate purple tone of the walls, which in the early light reminds me of spring forget-me-nots. I never wanted to live in a large house, preferring instead to live in a cosy and inviting environment. It's the ideal place for needs, as well as what many people dream about.But I'll miss my old place.It's my "cottage," as I like to refer to it. The old was a stage for my new works, fresh paintings daubed on beautiful squares of canvass, in the sky, adorned with everything rustic. Until you give it your personality, leave your stamp, and communicate what is essential to you, space is simply space.But I have to wait for this marriage contract to expire, and until then, I have to live with him; just thinking abou
I drew back from the pink duvet as I opened my eyes. I expose my face slowly and cautiously. I blink twice, then close my eyes and blink once more. I am blinded by rays of sunshine that pass through the window. I get out of bed, drag my feet out, and rub my knuckles into my eyes. I yawn with my arms stretched over my head. My legs hang over the off-white carpet, and I keep an eye on them.It's not my room, I turned around.Oh, my so-called marriage to jerk Aaron Knight comes flooding back. At my husband's home, here is my new room.It was 8:50 p. m. when I was studying, according to the digital clock on the wall.I slept too much.I remind myself that my maternal grandmother is an ideal wife, and she always tells me that when I get married, I must grow into an ideal wife for my husband, but I never imagined that my life would turn into a farce and that one day I would be married to the devil, Aaron Knight, who doesn't care about people but is obsessed with his business and his wealth.
Through my room's wide glass window, rays of sunlight splashed across my face. My sluggish eyes slowly opened.My pulse is beating, and my mind is blank, even though my eyes are open. It's as if an adrenaline hypodermic has been injected into my carotid artery. My respiration rate begins to stabilise as I struggle into the absolute blackness.I struggled out of bed and made my way to the restroom. When I glanced in the mirror, I saw a mess; my eyes were swollen from sobbing all night.My skin hasn't changed colour.Soo, I'm not sure why Aaron's anger so deeply broke my heart.I've never wished him harm, and I've always favoured him, but I imagine he won't believe me. He'll always regard me as a traitor.But who was that strange individual who handed me the packet with confidential corporate information that day, and why me?What relationship does he have with Aaron?I have a lot of unanswered questions in my head right now. I have no idea what to look for, how to gain Aaron's trust, c

I cleared my eyes, oppressive pain passed through my grit and bone, I recognized that I am again linked with metal Handcuffs, so many men are defending this chamber where they put me from insideI don't realize how long I am here but I guess it's newer than twelve hoursThen my mind reached back to my Aaron, my husband my existence, my soul, my heartDid he learn where I am, I am feeling so fragile now I didn't even eat anything for three days; I thought to have a beautiful and peaceful life with him, carrying his kids.I don't think so, I can be alive much now, I just wish to see a love of my life, my soul, my husband Aaron before dying"Don't worry beautiful your husband will never get a know where are you because, our boss kept you in very, very far away and dangerous abandoned island," Man of That bastard fabian bark to meMy hands are arching to slap his not go good ugly face and kill him"I know my Aaron will come here for me and kill fabian and arrogance of fabian will be burne
I adjust my eyes open and noticed; I am in some dark, isolated place they cuff my hand with metal chains and the same to my legsI heard the sound of waves like I am near some island or sea shoresideSuddenly the door of that dark room opened"You are awake darling," I heard a man's voiceI looked up to see who he was it was an unfamiliar voice but looked so dangerousI can't be able to see him because of the dark in the roomHe chuckled "want to see me," He sneered and order his men to open the windows of the room, when they opened windows, icy breeze wind and smell of fresh seawater waves through me like, I am at some seaside or on IslandI closed my eyes when they contacted sunlight directly; I felt the empty feeling in my stomach I looked up who he was. He was a man seems in his mid-sixties and he has forest green eyes and an ugly scar behind his eyes"So, finally you saw my darling," He asked me and comes near me. He lifted his hand to touch me but, I quickly jerked backward"Don
"You didn't attract from me," He said to smirk while coming towards me I started going backward, soon I bumped into a wall of the kitchen he cage me between his arms his eyes are on my lips, I blushed so hard feeling his intense gaze over me and the next thing he does is very surprisingNext moment he pressed his lips over mineI quickly grabbed the hem of his shirt in a halt with a small gasp, he is kissing me His lips brushed mine. Not innocent, like a tease, but hot, fiery, passionate, and demanding. I want to pull away before I lose myself, but I can't seem to...In this minty moment, my senses have been seduced and I can no longer think straight. "Eternity," he whispers slowly, prolonging each letter as if to savor them. I arched my head back closing my eyes, when his hand reaches my thighs and he clutched my waist so tightly, my heart fluttering at his voice as I clasp my hands on either side of his shoulders and gripped his shoulders. Never before has my name ever felt so wonder
When I saw a shooting star, I quickly gripped the hem of my shirt, I am wearing simple pyjama pants with a shirt, and I have felt that familiar sensation since childhood whenever I saw a shooting star, my insides always felt so light with a strange feeling that everything is going to be alright soon, even though I don't know why, but somewhere I am feeling that soon everything is going to be just fine, I quickly closed my eyes and joined my hands and started making a wish to star."God', I hope that I will soon be able to show my innocence to Aaron so that his hatred for me will disappear; I'm not sure what will happen after that, but I can't stand his hatred,"!!My eyes were closed and I was slowly regressing; I don't know when I bumped into someone, but I gasped as I felt it. As I was ready to fall because of a sudden chill (dread), someone seized me and wrapped his arms around my waist possessively.I slowly opened my eyes and saw the most stunning set of crystal blue deep eyes sta
"Oof!" I yelled.Arron abruptly halted and turned around, his gaze falling on my wounded leg, and he jogged towards me."What happened, are you all right?" he inquired, frowning and lightly rubbing my hurt leg."I slipped off so my leg," I explained to him, gulping and closing my eyes as I winced from the pain in my ankle. A small amount of blood is also on the way."Seriously, girl, why are you so clumsy and silly, huh, you can't even look after yourself?" With wrinkled brows and a straight gaze into my eyes, he remarked, shaking his head.I scowled and let out a little gasp as I looked at him. "It's not my fault, what can I do if I fall by accident, you're acting as if I did it on purpose," I said to him.As my shoulders slumped back, he checked my leg again, rubbing it tenderly, and I closed my eyes, biting my lips and swallowing the anguish in my leg."I'll take you inside your room," I split my lips slightly tasting his scent as he cradled me in his arms, my head resting on his
I noticed that man who was quite helpful, He's the same age as Aaron and is dressed in an Armani suit. With black hair and sea-blue eyes, he is rather attractive, but not as much as Aaron."Thank you," I said earnestly, my eyes crinkling."Anything for a gorgeous lady," he remarked with a grin."Well, my name is Issac Raccio, and I am the CEO of Raccio Communications and Limited Cooperation," he says. He smiled as he spoke to me."Oh, my name is Eternity Grang......, Um Knight," I said.He took my hand in his and kissed it."So, you're Aaron Knight's wife," he said, maintaining eye contact with me.I nodded and shifted my gaze to the way.He spoke to me while squirming and said, "Your name is genuinely very charming, beautiful name of the beautiful lady.""Thank you again for your kindness," I told him, noting that it was thoughtful of him to give me with tissue so quickly; otherwise, a chocolate stain would ruin my beautiful gown, which would be quite uncomfortable.He had said to
Wow, Eter, you are very stunning.Olivia chirped, her fingers splayed and one palm covering her eyes, beaming as if she saw Lilly Collins in front of her.I'm dressed to the nines.The crimson fuchsia high-low dress is cut vertically at the hemline, making it short in some places and long in others. The sheath prom gown clings to the body and conceals nothing.It clung to my body like a second skin.It's stunning.I don't know much about cosmetics or getting ready, so I asked Olivia to help me pick out a dress and apply my makeup for today's banquet party, which I'll be attending with Aaron."Wow, Eternity, you are looking so gorgeous," Amy exclaimed as she entered the room." Aaron is really lucky to have a gorgeous wife like you darling.""Thank you," I replied as I examined myself in the mirror as Olivia styled my beautiful brown hair."Look," Amy said, pointing to a pair of stunning diamond earrings. "Mr. Knight said you have to wear this to the party."I took the box from her and
I consciously opened my eyes from my slumber while lying in my bed, and I felt a soft quilt about my waist.I'm not sure how I ended up on the bed; I vividly remember passing asleep on my room's floor.Then I wiped my eyes, and the first thing I noticed was Aaron sitting on my bed, watching at me with concerned filled eyes. This was the first time I noticed he was concerned about me, and I sat up on my bed, knowing he was the one who placed Oilment and medicinal bandage on my wound."It doesn't hurt much," I told him, expecting to see a glimpse of hope in his eyes that he cares about me.My heart is rushing so quickly as I feel his deep gaze over me, halt at my lips, then my breasts, then return to my eyes."I know you care about me," I told him with a smile.That sweet expression in his eyes transformed back to a cold and harsh one when he understood what I was saying."No, I don't care about you; I only did this because I'm the only one who can damage you; no one else can." He mumbl
