Married to the Heir The silent Treatment
Sienna had spent the past few months in the Lancaster estate surrounded by wealth, power, and constant scrutiny. But tonight, for the first time, she had never felt more alone.The house was silent.Damien hadn’t come after her.Not when she left their bedroom. Not when she spent the entire day avoiding him. Not when she refused to join him for dinner, instead opting to stay locked in one of the guest rooms.Nothing.Not a single word.And that silence was louder than any argument they could have had.Sienna curled up on the plush armchair by the window, staring out at the city lights beyond the estate walls.She hated this.She hated the way her chest ached every time she thought about last night—the look in Damien’s eyes, the cold detachment in his voice, the way he had hesitated before believing her.She had trusted him.And he had let her down.Again.A soft knock at the door made her stiffen.Her pulse jumped, her breath catching in her throat. Damien?For a brief, foolish moment

The Lancaster estate felt different in the days that followed.Sienna no longer sought out Damien. She no longer tried to get him to talk, to see her. Instead, she did exactly what Isabelle had told her to do—she let him figure it out on his own.And the silence between them stretched.At first, she thought it would be unbearable. That the distance would drive her mad.But surprisingly, it wasn’t.Because for the first time since stepping into this world, she wasn’t the one chasing.She wasn’t the one proving herself.Damien, however?He was struggling.She saw it in the way his eyes lingered on her when he thought she wasn’t looking. In the way his fingers twitched, like he wanted to reach for her but held himself back. In the way his jaw clenched whenever she walked past him without a word.But he didn’t break.And neither did she.At least, not until everything came crashing down.It started at the charity gala.Sienna should have known something was off the moment she stepped into

Sienna didn’t remember leaving the gala.One moment, she was standing in front of Damien, heart splintering as he hesitated—again. The next, she was in the backseat of a car, staring blankly out the window as the city lights blurred past.Isabelle had been the one to pull her out of there.She had grabbed Sienna’s arm, whispered something about not giving the press any more to feed on, and led her straight to the waiting town car.Now, back at the Lancaster estate, the weight of everything pressed down on her like a crushing force.The scandal.The betrayal.The fact that Damien had looked at her and hesitated.Again.Sienna clenched her fists, pacing the length of the bedroom she and Damien shared.She had told herself she wouldn’t fight for him anymore.That she wouldn’t keep proving herself to someone who refused to believe in her.But this?This wasn’t just about Damien.This was about her name. Her reputation. Her life.And she refused to let Richard, Evelyn, or Ethan control tha

The video went live at exactly noon.Sienna sat in the Lancaster media office, staring directly into the camera as her voice rang steady through the live broadcast.“My name is Sienna Monroe, and I’m here to set the record straight.”No PR team spinning the narrative. No reporters twisting her words. Just her—facing the world on her own terms.She recounted the truth, laying it all out.Yes, Ethan had shown up at the gala. No, she hadn’t invited him. And no—she wasn’t having an affair. The so-called evidence was nothing more than a carefully manipulated setup, designed to destroy her reputation.And she made sure the world knew exactly who had the most to gain from it.“People like Richard Lancaster thrive on control,” she said, her voice unwavering. “And when they can’t control someone, they try to ruin them instead.”A calculated risk.Calling out Richard directly was dangerous. But if she was going down, she wasn’t going quietly.By the time she finished speaking, the internet was

Damien Lancaster stepped into the dimly lit bar, rolling his shoulders as he took in the scent of whiskey and faint traces of cigarette smoke. Here, in this rundown place on the outskirts of the city, no one knew who he was. No one cared. And that was exactly what he wanted.He wasn’t Damien Lancaster, heir to the billion-dollar Lancaster empire. The cold, powerful family that built their fortune through ruthless business tactics, controlling the industry and everyone in their orbit. Tonight, he was just another guy, blending into the crowd, free from his father’s overbearing expectations and the weight of his last name.Dressed in a worn leather jacket, a black t-shirt, and jeans, Damien took a seat at the bar and ordered a whiskey. The bartender slid him a glass, and he took a slow sip, the burn grounding him in the present. That was when he saw her.Across the room, Sienna Brooks laughed, her warm brown eyes sparkling under the neon lights. Her wavy chestnut hair cascaded down her

Sienna groaned as the first rays of sunlight peeked through the curtains, stabbing at her closed eyelids like tiny daggers. Her head pounded—a reminder of the drinks she had downed the night before. She rolled over, sighing as she buried her face in the pillow, hoping for just a few more minutes of sleep.But then she felt it.The steady rise and fall of a chest beside her. The warmth of a body. The unfamiliar scent of expensive cologne mixed with whiskey.Her eyes snapped open.Lying next to her, tangled in the sheets, was Damien.Sienna’s heart nearly stopped. Flashes of the previous night came rushing back—the teasing, the way his deep blue eyes had locked onto hers, the way his lips had claimed hers without hesitation. The way she had wanted him, needed him, and how she had let herself get lost in the moment.Her gaze dropped to her bare shoulder, the sheet barely covering her.“Oh my God,” she whispered.As if sensing her panic, Damien stirred beside her. His arm, which had been

Damien gritted his teeth as he stepped out of his car, his father’s voice still ringing in his ears.“You’re a disgrace, Damien. Running around like a common nobody instead of handling your responsibilities. You will marry who I tell you to marry, and you will not embarrass this family.”The anger pulsed through him, hot and consuming. His father had spent his entire life trying to mold him into the perfect Lancaster heir, but Damien refused to be a puppet. He didn’t want the polished, obedient socialite his father had chosen for him. He wanted to live his life.His grip tightened around his phone before shoving it into his pocket. He needed a distraction. Something—anything—to shake off the rage crawling beneath his skin.Without thinking, he pushed open the door to a small diner. The bell above the entrance chimed, the scent of fresh coffee and sizzling bacon wrapping around him. He barely noticed.Then his eyes landed on her.Sienna.The tension in his shoulders loosened as he watc

Sienna hadn’t expected to see him again.The man from that reckless night—the stranger whose name she hadn’t even known until this moment—was now sitting in her diner, looking at her like he had been expecting her all along.Damien Lancaster.She barely had time to process it before he smirked, his gaze locked onto her as if he had all the time in the world.“Mint chocolate chip,” he murmured, his voice carrying over the low hum of the diner.Her stomach flipped. He remembered.Sienna’s grip tightened around the notepad in her hand. “So, you do know how to introduce yourself properly,” she said, trying to sound unaffected. “Would’ve been useful the first time.”Damien leaned back in the booth, the very picture of effortless confidence. “Would it have changed anything?”She flushed, knowing the answer was no. That night had been impulsive, wild—a break from reality she hadn’t allowed herself in years.But now, reality was here, and it was staring at her in the form of Damien Lancaster.

Married to the Heir The Breaking point
By the time evening arrived, Sienna felt like she was walking through a minefield.The day had dragged on in agonizing silence, every moment stretching unbearably long as she waited for the inevitable explosion. She had no idea if Damien had seen the photos yet—if Richard or Evelyn had placed them in his hands, twisting the narrative before she even had a chance to explain.But she felt it coming.The storm.And she knew when it hit, there would be no stopping it.She paced in their bedroom, the dim glow of the bedside lamp casting long shadows along the walls. The air felt thick, suffocating. Her nerves buzzed with anxiety, but she refused to let herself break down.She had made a decision this morning.She wasn’t running.And no matter how much Richard and Evelyn wanted her gone, she wasn’t leaving.A sharp knock on the door made her pulse jump.And then—Damien.He stepped inside, his presence like a force of nature, dark and overpowering. He was still in his suit from the day’s mee
Married to the Heir Betrayal from Within
The Lancaster estate was unnervingly quiet the next morning.Sienna sat at the grand breakfast table, absently stirring her coffee as her mind replayed the events of last night. Damien’s words, his touch, the way he had let her in for the first time—it all still lingered in her chest, warm and confusing.He had admitted that she wasn’t just a business deal anymore.That she mattered to him.And even though he hadn’t said the words outright, she could feel the shift between them.But now, in the cold light of morning, reality came crashing back.The scandal.The whispers.And worst of all—the fact that Richard Lancaster was still waiting for her to fail.Sienna exhaled, setting her coffee down with a soft clink. She needed to stay focused. She couldn’t afford to get distracted by Damien—not when there were still people in this house who wanted her gone.As if summoned by the thought, a voice broke the silence.“You certainly seem comfortable here.”Sienna looked up, her stomach twistin
Married to the Heir A Night of Truths
The car ride back to the Lancaster estate was thick with silence.Damien sat beside Sienna in the backseat, his posture tense, his hands resting on his thighs as if he were barely restraining himself. His jaw was tight, his gaze fixed on the darkened streets passing by the tinted windows.Sienna, still reeling from the confrontation with Ethan, stole a glance at him.He hadn’t spoken since they left the gala.Not after he had nearly choked her ex in front of a crowd of reporters.Not after he had grabbed her hand and all but dragged her to the car, ignoring every prying eye on them.The silence stretched, heavy and suffocating.She hated it.“You didn’t have to do that,” she finally said, her voice quiet but firm.Damien’s fingers twitched, but he didn’t look at her. “Yes, I did.”Sienna swallowed hard. “You almost lost control, Damien. You don’t think Ethan’s going to use that against us?”His lips pressed into a thin line. “Let him.”Sienna let out a sharp breath. “Damien.”Finally,
Married to the Heir Damien’s Jealousy
The rest of the night was a blur of forced conversations and polite smiles. Sienna moved through the crowd with practiced ease, pretending she wasn’t suffocating under the weight of the night’s events. Richard had tried to humiliate her, to expose her weaknesses in front of the media, but she had refused to break. Still, she knew the battle was far from over. “Impressive performance,” a deep voice murmured beside her. Sienna turned, finding herself face to face with a man she didn’t recognize. He was tall and sharply dressed, with the kind of easy confidence that only came from old money. His green eyes glimmered with amusement as he raised his glass toward her. “You really put Richard in his place,” he continued, smirking. “I have to say, I didn’t expect that.” Sienna arched a brow. “And you are?” He chuckled, extending a hand. “Julian Rothschild. A distant relative of your husband’s. Unfortunately.” Sienna hesitated before shaking his hand. “Ah, so you’re the infamous wife
Married to the Heir The Unexpected Rescue
Sienna had spent the past few weeks navigating Lancaster politics, but nothing about this world felt any easier. The weight of the scandal still lingered, whispers following her everywhere she went. And now, with Richard’s veiled threats hanging over her, the tension had only gotten worse. Tonight was supposed to be a rare moment of escape. The charity gala was being held at one of the city’s most prestigious venues—a grand ballroom adorned with gold chandeliers and crystal centerpieces. It was the kind of event where appearances mattered more than substance, where the elite gathered under the guise of generosity while secretly competing to outshine one another. Sienna had expected the usual—cold glances from the Lancaster circle, reporters subtly prying for gossip, Damien maintaining that carefully crafted distance between them. What she hadn’t expected… was Julian Rothschild. “Sienna.” She turned at the sound of his voice, finding him leaning casually against the bar, a knowin
