Raine had a second chance at life when she was reborn as a wealthy heiress. She had a plan: to save the man of her dreams from his tragic fate and make him hers. She proposed to him with a bold offer. "Marry me. You can escape from your stalker and have a virgin bride. It’s not bad, isn’t it?" She vowed to protect him and avenge his previous death. She didn't mind being in a fake marriage, or so she thought. But he was not the prince charming she imagined. He was a seductive temptation that she couldn't resist. "I'm not the sweet candy you think I am, honey. No, I'm not…" Would she be able to break free from his thorny embrace? He was intrigued by the first woman who dared to ask him to marry her with such a serious expression. Kai was a famous star, and women adored his charisma and beauty. He agreed to her proposal and planned to use this innocent heiress for his own purposes. No strings attached. But he was tempted. His wife was too enticing to resist. "You walked into my trap, Raine. Don't blame me if I can't get enough of you." Could they find love in their web of lies? What secrets was Kai hiding from her? Would Raine's love be able to heal Kai's wounds? Could their contract marriage turn into a real romance?
View MoreRaine's POVI think Demi sent someone to watch our backs. If she thinks that I’m stupid, I won’t suspect her. She’s wrong. There’s no way that I’ll let her do as she wishes.I’ll show her who I am as well. "It means that she’s aware that Emma was your stalker," I replied.I might be checking my emails, but part of my eye was staring at this woman. Demi laugh. "Your keen senses will only bring you trouble, Missy," she says.I gave my phone to my husband. I didn’t lock it yet. "Here," I stated."Can I check it out?" he asks. I nodded."No problem. You’ll only see your nude pictures there," I tease.His cheeks turn red. He really checks my gallery. I laugh. "Honey, those are for my eyes only. There’s no way I’ll take one. Na-ah," I said, moving my index finger from left to right."Ahem!" Demi coughs.I look at her and smirk. "Oh, you’re
Kai's POVI just took a four-hour nap and asked George to drive us home at exactly four in the morning. I just arrived, and I can’t help but watch my wife as she sleeps cutely."I got in here ten minutes ago. I really want to see you, so... here I am," I replied. She rolled her eyes and pinched my cheeks."Welcome home, Kai…" she says, smiling widely."I’m home, honey," I replied.She grabbed my wrist and pulled me up. I lost my balance and landed on her. I was about to roll over when she wraps her hands and legs around me."You are better than a bolster or a pillow," she says. She even sniffs me like a puppy.I rolled over and am now on top. I pat her butte and unwrap her legs and arms around me. "Go to sleep. I’ll make us something for breakfast. I’ll wake you up later," she says. I shake my head and wrap my hands around her."Stay here with me. Let’s grab some brunch outs
Raine's POVI know where he's coming from. We both remember my health history, and he’s afraid that I'll have the same illness here.I do feel the same way, and that’s the reason why I’ll be using Raine's money to make sure I'll have a longer life and be with Kai until my hair turns gray.I stand up and notice that I don’t have any IVs on me. I guess the nurses notice it and take it off themselves. I went to him and sat beside him. I wrap my quilt around him. I look at his laptop."Look who is overexerting himself."I closed his laptop and put it back in his bag. I look at my husband’s sleeping face. I chuckled. "You are indeed a celebrity, my love. You're too beautiful for me," I murmur.I raise my hand and touch his hair. He's pouting a little when he is sleeping soundly. I guess he stayed too late last night, and he just got his proper sleep.I better speak with the nurses. I was about
Kai's POVI was running down the hallway after the nurse told me which room it was. Macey told me that Raine was admitted to the hospital, and it horrified me.I opened the door and looked at the bed. "Raine! Are you okay?!" I ask. I held her hand and noticed how pale she was. She smiled."Don't worry. I'm fine. They said it’s just stress and fatigue. I'm also having a hard time with my sleeping habits," she reported.I look at Macey. She nods and seems to agree with what her boss says. I hope that they’re not lying to me."You need to take a breath. I will take care of the things you need to know for next week. I have no appointments or photoshoots for that week. You must rest properly, understand?" I remarked. She laughed but nodded. I’m glad she didn’t argue with my suggestion.A nurse came in and checked her vital signs. "Nurse, I want to suggest an overall check-up for my wife. I have to make sure that she’s not ill or whatever it is," I said.She nods and looks away. I know she
Raine's POVI gasped and got up in bed. I groan when everything turns black. This is a consequence of waking up in the middle of the night. I look at the man beside me."Ugh. What the heck? I dozed off completely!" I whimper. I heard my husband moan.He opens his eyes and looks at me with such sexy glances. "I apologize if I ended up sleeping last night. I was just tired and stressed from all the reports that I received from the technical team," I explained.Kai raised his hand and caressed my cheek. "It's okay, love. We still have so many nights and days to make love with one another," he says. That made me blush.How inconsiderate I was! "I will make it up for you tonight, I promise, my love," I whispered. He shook his head and smiled."Just take the rest that you deserve. You are my partner, not my sexual pet. Hugging and kissing you will be enough for me, Raine," he whispered. That melts my heart.I knew from the very start that my husband was considerate and loving. "Let's have a
Kai's POVI guess she is indeed planning to cause a stir in our lives. I’m sure my evil stepmother was aware that the child of the couple she killed was my wife, her stepson.I look at Raine. "Answer her. Don’t worry about me. Put it in the speakerphone. I want to hear her voice," Raine says. I nodded and followed her instructions. I swipe the answer button and wait for 3 seconds."Hello? I thought you had died already," I stated.All we heard was her wicked laughter. I showed this woman what kind of hatred my parallel self had for her. "Why? Do you really think I died with your dad? Oh, please," he stated. My jaw clenched.My dad and mother died together because they got back together after my dad divorced Demi, my evil stepmother.They only got married for three years, but those years were nothing but hell for me. I’m just glad that my cousin’s dad wakes my father from his stupid slumber. He finally saw Demi’s true colors."I wish you were. You deserve to die early, but I guess the
Raine's POVI saw how confused Kai was. I laugh. I just want to tease him but there’s another meaning for it."I love you so much that I can sacrifice any luck in my life in order to love you in every dimension," he replied.I was surprised by what he said. He said those words with a straightforward expression on his face.He cupped my face and lifted it up a little. He gives me a sweet kiss. "I will always find you, no matter where you are, Raine. No matter what surname you’ll be using, I promise you that," Kai added.My heart sank because of joy. I can’t believe he answered my question flawlessly. I smiled. I wrap my hands around his neck. I softly brush his nape, where the end of his hair lies.I kissed him several times until he claimed it was a torrid one. I moan and respond to his kiss wildly. I love him and that is an inevitable truth.No matter where we are, I’ll only love a single man. That’s Kai Montefalcon. We both laughed because of our cheesiness after that long kiss. We
Raine's POVI told Macey that I wanted to see my husband after she gave me a certain clue that I didn’t expect. Macey says that a woman is the one who sent his dad to kill my parents.She also gives me a clue. Her dad saw a tattoo on the woman’s right boob. He says that she’s wearing a bra that exposes her boobs and when she bends over while giving the payment to Macey’s dad, he sees a certain tattoo.I suddenly remember that Kai in our world had a stepmother who caused his downfall as well. "What kind of scary truth is that?" Kai says. I tap my right side, telling him to take a seat beside me. He was confused but followed my order."Remember your evil stepmother, Demi? She has a tattoo on her right boob, am I correct? What kind of tattoo is that again?"His face turned sour when he heard Demi’s name. His jaw clenched. My husband really hates her. "Why did you remember her? I was relieved she’s not around in this world."I sighed and decided to tell him what Macey told me. "She said t
Kai's POVI jump off the couch after my cousin locks the door to my dressing room. I have a 30-minute break for my mini-concert and fan meeting. It's already day 3 and as soon as my last show ends tomorrow, I'll run home."If you can only see your face, you’re fucking in love, dude. I never thought I'd see you as restless as this," George teases. I take off my coat and sigh."Four days was fucking long. How can she feel at ease while I’m missing her so much?" I commented. He burst into laughter.I glared at my cousin and he cleared his throat, stopping himself from laughing. Damn! "You're not in love yet and that’s the reason why you’re clueless about these feelings. I’ll laugh at you when you do. I’ll make sure of that," I remarked.His eyes dilated and he suddenly stood up from sitting on the couch. Wait a second! He is staring behind me. Don’t tell me Emma stalked me here?! That woman!A slender arm and a familiar scent register in my head. A soft kiss landed on my cheek. "I guess
Raine's POV As I gaze at the picture in front of me, a sinking feeling hits me. My heart shatters as I realize that the man in the portrait, my beloved idol and actor, has taken his own life due to a scandal. Tears stream down my cheeks uncontrollably. I walk away, not stopping until I reach the road, oblivious to the honking car as I cross. My vision blurs from the tears, and I wonder if he truly ended his own life or if he had no one to support him during his darkest moments. "I returned home with the intention of repaying you for your kindness, but I never imagined that you would unjustly lose your life because of that scandal. Aahhh!" I scream in sadness because of the fact that he's gone. I worked hard to prove myself worthy of his assistance, but just as I was about to express how he had changed my life, his death affects me in overwhelming sadness. I stop in my tracks and clench my teeth. It's all because of that woman! It's her fault! I don't care about her deceitful lies
