Isabella only wanted revenge. Her family had been devastated by the strong billionaire Xander Blackwood's father, and he was going to pay. Her strategy, however, takes an unexpected turn when she is caught up in a tornado of secrets, deceit, and a marriage contract she did not expect. Xander is cold, calculating, and motivated by ambition. He regards Isabella as nothing more than a pawn in a bargain that will strengthen his kingdom. He doesn't expect the fire in her eyes or the spark that sparks whenever they're together. Their marriage was supposed to be a facade, but behind closed doors, a new game is being played. As they engage in a battle of wills, their ice shell begins to melt. Anger becomes to attraction, and neither can deny the tremendous chemistry that binds them together. But, just as they start to doubt the line between love and vengeance, a web of terrible secrets begins to emerge. The past returns to haunt them, threatening to destroy everything they've built—both professionally and in their fragile relationship. In a world of power and deception, Isabella and Xander must decide whether their marriage is a game or if something more serious has taken root. Will revenge pull them apart, or will genuine love be enough to keep them together?

Chapter 1

The ballroom glowed magnificently, the chandeliers throwing golden light over marble flooring and gorgeously clad VIPs. Conversations hummed like bees, with the occasional clink of champagne glasses. Isabella Monroe took a slow, measured breath, her gaze sweeping across the room. She didn't belong here anymore, but no one knew.Her black silk gown clung to her like a second skin, the type of clothing that drew attention while leaving much to the imagination. It was deliberate. Every aspect, from her outfit to her diamond earrings, was part of a meticulously planned illusion. Tonight, she was not the orphaned daughter of a bankrupt billionaire. Tonight, she embodied power.She surveyed the room, looking for the one man who mattered.Xander Blackwood. Even his name was enough to start a fire in her chest. The son of the man who had stolen everything from her. She would now annihilate this man."Miss Monroe, you look stunning tonight."Isabella recognised Gerald Palmer, a top executive a

Chapter 2

Against the skyline, the Blackwood Corporation towered like a shining steel and glass stronghold. Xander Blackwood's stronghold on the city was evident from the street below, where it appeared unbreakable. Isabella saw the building as the stronghold she would enter, but to most, it represented his accomplishment. She would take him down from within its confines.With a fleeting glimpse of herself reflected in the glass, Isabella stood in front of the enormous revolving doors. She smoothed down the lapels of her blazer and adjusted it before entering. With the gentle buzz of activity in the background, the refreshing lobby air hit her like a wave.She felt as though she was travelling over a chessboard with each step she made in the direction of the lift. She would take a serious step today. She was having a negotiation with a top executive at Xander, one that would, if it went well, integrate her into the organisation. Once inside, she would work it out from the inside out.Her though

Chapter 3

A world different from the chilly, lavish hallways of Blackwood Corporation was Isabella's flat. It was a sleek, uncomplicated room with a minimalist décor and a long, panoramic view of the city, hidden away on a quiet street. This was how she liked it. Less personal attachments are preferable. Like her, everything in this place was planned and useful.She lowered herself onto the couch, letting go of her heels and feeling her body relax. It had gone better than she had anticipated for the meeting at Blackwood. She had established herself solidly in their world and laid the foundation. Still, she couldn't shake the unanticipated presence of Xander Blackwood.He had been observing her all along, his eyes calculating and razor sharp, like a predator sizing up its prey. It was disconcerting. She had anticipated interacting with his lieutenants and avoiding him as much as possible. However, it appeared that the rules had altered. Things got more tricky because Xander was more involved tha

Chapter 4

Isabella positioned herself in front of her bedroom's full-length mirror, her gown's smooth, silky fabric flowing down her body like liquid midnight. She fiddled with the neckline, her fingers grazing the fine embroidery at the corners. This wasn't just any old dress. It was armour, carefully selected to leave a lasting impression, to disappear into the environment she was going to enter, to stand out just enough to let everyone know she was a formidable opponent.Though Isabella had anticipated this moment, the invitation had only arrived a day and a half ago. Someone like her wouldn't be allowed to go unnoticed by Xander Blackwood. He was interested in getting a close-up look at her, testing her, and maybe even trying to figure out any secrets he suspected she was hiding.That was not something she could let happen.The annual gala served as a showcase for the corporation's strength and influence, and it was a Blackwood tradition. It would be attended by everyone who was anybody. Th

Chapter 5

Warm light filled Isabella's penthouse as morning sunshine filtered through the curtains. With a cup of coffee in hand, she sat by the bay window thinking back on the gala the night before. It seemed like the event went nicely. Xander Blackwood was present as Isabella maintained her ground while mingling with the wealthy and influential elite. Still, she felt uneasy about their indisputable bond. Xander was passionate and mysterious, unlike anyone she had ever met. He could get beyond her barriers in a way that others could not, therefore his influence carried a danger. Her thoughts were interrupted as her phone buzzed on the table. When she saw his name, Xander Blackwood, she momentarily froze. She reluctantly clicked on the message. Xander: Today's lunch. Only us. The location is your choice. I'm going to wait. She gave him a stern look, which was typical of Xander. Still, there was something fascinating about his candour. "Just the two of us." This was no ordinary busines

Chapter 6

The sound of the city buzzed around Isabella as she sat in her penthouse, staring out at the skyline. The lunch with Xander had left her more unsettled than ever. A marriage contract? It was absurd. And yet, the offer lingered in her mind like a tempting whisper, coaxing her to consider what could be gained—and what might be lost.Isabella had always been methodical, precise in her plans. But Xander had thrown her off balance, introducing an element she hadn’t accounted for: him. There was something about his proposition that went beyond business. It was as though he saw her not just as a rival but as an equal, someone worthy of standing by his side in a world where few dared to challenge him.She clenched her jaw, her mind racing as she weighed the possibilities. A marriage contract could give her access to Xander’s world, to his power, his resources. It would bring her closer to everything she needed to achieve her ultimate goal: revenge. But it could also make her vulnerable, expos

Chapter 7

Isabella stood at her apartment window, the city lights a blur as she read through the contract for the third time. Each word on the page seemed heavier, and each clause was more binding. This wasn’t just a business deal but a merger of lives. Every decision, every move she made, now revolved around one choice: signing this contract with Xander Blackwood.It was simple legally but complex in every other sense. The terms were clear—a marriage meant to stabilize their respective empires, a calculated union to ward off their rivals. Yet she knew Xander’s motives went deeper than that. He wasn’t just after a business arrangement; he wanted control. And the one thing Isabella despised was being controlled.Her phone buzzed, his name lighting up the screen. Without hesitating, she answered.“Isabella,” his voice, cool and steady, filled her ear. “Have you decided?”She took a deep breath, gripping the document. “Yes, I have.”“And?”“I’ll do it. But there are conditions.”A pause, then a lo

Chapter 8

As Isabella exited the limousine with her arm wrapped in Xander's, the night was filled with camera flashes and curious whispers. The crowd's shout and the paparazzi's dazzling lights welcomed them, anxious to document every moment of the new power couple's first public appearance.With his palm lightly pressing on her lower back, Xander muttered, "Smile." "We are the centre of attention tonight."With a beautiful smile that had been on countless magazine covers in her previous life, Isabella raised her chin. However, the stakes were bigger this time. The city's elite circles were already hearing the rumours that followed their abrupt marriage: why had they been married so soon? What did they have to conceal?Isabella felt as though a hundred eyes were watching them as they made their way to the enormous ballroom's entrance, each one attempting to solve the riddle of their union. Even though she had planned for this, she couldn't help but feel a peculiar mixture of excitement and appr

Chapter 9

Isabella entered Xander's office, her heels clicking on the smooth marble floor as the early sun streamed through the towering windows. She had been used to the power emanating from every nook and cranny of his world—the luxury, the whispered transactions, the quiet but obvious tension in every place they shared. Today, however, felt different.Xander stood beside his desk, gazing out at the city skyline with his back to her. He appeared to be in a deep state of meditation or even preparing for an impending conflict because of his stiff posture and clinched hands behind him."You desired for me to be here?" Isabella questioned, her voice firm despite the buzz of nervousness beneath it."I have a meeting today," Xander replied in a stern, low voice without turning around. I want you to be there.Isabella had long since ceased anticipating those, so it wasn't a request. She raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms. "Another business transaction?"Xander turned to her at last and replied,

Chapter 10

Isabella perched on the side of the bed, the kiss still fresh on her lips causing her thoughts to spin. She was shook by Xander's touch and his passion. A business arrangement was no longer at issue. It had evolved into something more sinister and intricate than she could have ever imagined.However, Xander continued to conceal something. And she needed to know exactly what she was up against if she was going to make it in his world.Determined to learn more, she took out her phone. She had been used to figuring out Xander's business transactions during the previous two weeks, but it was time to go deeper—into his background and personal life.Her investigation sent her down a rabbit hole of sounds and rumours, tales about Xander Blackwood that were rarely shared out loud but were circulating in the business community. She came upon stories detailing his quick ascent to prominence and the mergers and acquisitions that had turned him into a notorious figure in the field. However, there
