The velvet red dress they’ve chosen clings to my body like a second skin. It’s high slit gives the dress a sexy look. Pearls adorn my neck, shining in the light. I complete the look with a pair of velvet gloves. "Perfect," one of the stylists murmurs, stepping back to admire their handiwork.I glance at my reflection and feel confident. Tonight, I am every inch the woman I need to be.I smile at my reflection. I won the merger and this auction is the perfect opportunity to celebrate.When I’m done getting dressed, I grab my purse and walk down the staircase. As I move, I hear the faint murmur of Alexander’s voice. He’s on his phone. The sound of my heels grab his attention.When his eyes lift to meet mine, the world seems to slow.Our gazes lock, and it’s as if nothing else exists in this moment. His blue eyes hold mine.

MIA'S POVThe room is filled with excitement as the auctioneer taps the gavel, signaling the start of the auction. I clasp Alexander’s hand tightly. I'm so excited that I practically hop. He leans in close, whispering in my ear. “Relax, Mia,” he says with a chuckle. “It’s just an auction.”I smile at him "I can't help it" Across the room, I can feel Julia’s eyes on me. She glares at me so hard that I can feel it without even looking at her. I don’t have to look to know she’s watching.But, of course, I do look. I meet her gaze head-on, and for a moment, we’re locked. None of us is willing to back down. She arches her brow and if she has something to prove, she turns her attention to Eric.Eric.She wraps herself over him. Her arm slides possessively around his shoulders. Then, just to drive the point home, she presses her lips to his in a kiss.I laugh softly but Alexander hesrs it. “What’s so funny?” he asks. “Nothing,” I reply, but my gaze goes back to Eric. He’s stiff as a boa

ALEXANDER’S POVThe moment I see her smile, it feels like the world stands still. Mia looks radiant and it’s not just because of the soft golden light in the gallery. She’s holding the painting close. Her cheeks are flushed with excitement as she turns to me.“You bought it!” she exclaims.I nod. I can’t stop the smile that’s on my lips. “Of course, I did. It’s beautiful. Just like you.”She laughs. Before I know it, she’s wrapping her arms around me, again then she leans up to place a kiss on my cheek.“Thank you, Alexander,” she says “This means so much to me.”I shrug, playing it cool, but inside, it feels like I’m floating. “If it makes you happy, it’s worth it”It really is. I’d buy you a hundred more if it meant seeing that smile again.She pulls away and excuses herself, saying something about needing to use the bathroom.As she disappears down the hallway, I make my way to the bar. I need something to calm the emotions inside me. This wasn’t part of the plan. I’d convinced mys

ALEXANDER’S POVThe office feels suffocating. There’s a literal mountain of files on my desk. I lean back in my chair, massaging my temples, when Lily, my secretary, walks in. She’s wearing a blouse that’s unbuttoned just enough to make her intentions obvious, and as she bends down to place a file on my desk, her cleavage is practically on display.I roll my eyes. This isn’t the first time she’s pulled something like this.“Is there anything else you need, Mr. Alex?” she asks.“No” I say.She drops a file on the floor ‘accidentally’. She bends so that her ass faces me. Her skirt is lifted up and I can see her panties. At this point, I’m not even angry, I’m just irritated.She gets up and clears her throat “You’re sure there’s nothing you need, sir?”Without even looking up, I reply “No. And you’re fired.”There’s a stunned silence before she stammers, “W-what?”I finally meet her wide-eyed gaze “You heard me. Get out.”She hesitates for a moment. Her mouth opens and closes as if searc

MIA’S POVI find myself in a dark place. It’s so dark that I can’t tell where I am. All I know is that the darkness stretches out for what feels like an eternity. It’s all I can see and feel.I look forward and that’s when my eyes land on him – James.I see him here in front of me. His mouth is tied so only muffled sounds come out from his lips. Blood pours out from his wounds, pooling beneath him. His eyes plead with me for help. I scream his name, trying to reach him, but I’m rooted to the spot, helpless. I can’t move, no matter how much I try to. The scene gets even more terrifying as his body goes limp. Instantly, the light fades from his eyes.I wake up with a loud scream and my body trembling. My whole body is drenched in sweat. My chest heaves up and down heavily. My heart is pounding as if it’s trying to escape my ribs. Before I can process anything, the door bursts open, and Alexander comes in with a gun in his hand.“Mia! What happened? Are you okay?” he demands, scanning th

JULIA’S POVI sit at my desk, tapping a pen against the wood as I scroll through my phone for the hundredth time. Eric’s messages are dry. It seems like he doesn’t want to talk to me and he finds every excuse not to come home almost every night. I’ve tried to make plans, to reach out, but it’s like he’s avoiding me. He’s slipping away, and I can’t help but suspect the reason: Mia.The thought makes my jaw tighten. Ever since that damn auction, Eric’s been different. I remember the way he looked at Mia that night, like she was some rare piece of art he couldn’t take his eyes off. It’s nauseating. I’ve done everything—played every card but somehow, she’s still a threat.I grab my phone and try James again. It goes straight to voicemail, just like every other time. The last conversation we had replays in my mind. I had used the family angle, trying to sway him to betray Mia and make plans but he’d stood firm. James had refused to turn against Mia, claiming he wouldn’t betray her no matte

MIA’S POVThe office is silent except for the ticking of the clock. It’s late—later than I’d intended to stay, but throwing myself into work has become second nature. Numbers blur together on my screen, but I keep going.James’ face comes up in my memory like a ghost. He’s just away on a work trip, I remind myself for the hundredth time. That’s all it is. Yet, the ache in my chest refuses to fade. There’s a nagging feeling. I feel doubtful about it but I push it away.And then there’s Alexander. My chest tightens at the thought of him. Alexander, with his charm and those eyes that see right through me. He makes my heart race, but he’s made it clear what he wants: no strings, no promises, just… sex. I know I love him. But loving Alexander is like reaching for smoke. It hurts, and yet I can’t seem to stop.A sharp knock on the door startles me, pulling me from my thoughts.

MIA'S POV"You are pregnant."The words hit me like a wave. To say I'm shocked is an understatement. I blink, trying to grasp the words, trying to make sense of what the doctor just said. My heart starts to race, and for a second, I think maybe I imagined it."I'm pregnant?" I whisper.My hand moves to my stomach, resting there, where a tiny life now exists."Yes," the doctor confirms with a warm smile. "Congratulations, Mia."Tears fill my eyes, but this time, they’re from happiness—pure, overwhelming happiness.I’m pregnant.It feels like a dream, like all the pain and doubt I’ve been carrying for months has been lifted. After all the waiting, the hoping, the endless frustration—this is the moment I’ve been praying for."Thank you! Thank you so much!" I say.I grab the report from his hands, clutching it tightly, as if it’s the most precious thing in the world—because right now, it is. I nearly fly out of the doctor’s office. As I make my way through the hospital hallways, a smile s

ERIC’S POVThe boardroom is suffocating. My suit feels too tight. The air feels too thick, as if the very walls are closing in on me. I shift in my seat, trying to stay composed, though every muscle in my body is tense. I’ve prepared for this day for months but now that it’s here, my mind is racing. The stakes have never been higher.I steal a glance at Mia who’s seated across from me at the other end of the table. She’s calm, collected and I can’t help but admire the way she carries herself. Even now, in the midst of the final deliberations, she doesn’t seem bothered.Mrs Altridge stands up to make an announcement. This is it. The moment we’ve been waiting for“First of all, we want to thank both of you for your incredible presentations” she says “Both of you have shown what true dedication looks like. The level of expertise and effort you’ve put into this project shows how committed you are.”I nod along but all I can think of is Mia. She doesn’t show any signs of nervousness.“And
