Renting The Billionaire's Heart Fifty-One
LeonelI reeled from shock and felt like I'd taken a solid right hook to the jaw. My mind struggled to process the blow. It felt like all the air had been sucked out of my lungs, leaving me gasping for breath. The pain in my heart was staggering as I gazed at the photo of Miracle kissing her ex. This form of betrayal was raw and left me numb and empty. Miracle appeared to be the last person who would cheat, but humans continued to prove me wrong, demonstrating that trusting them was a fruitless endeavor. At this point, the only beings I could rely on were my loyal dog, Buddy, and perhaps Leana, who hadn't disappointed me yet.Calvin fucked my mom, Nadia cheated on me with a girl, Lenny would do anything to see my downfall, and now Miracle, whom I had stupidly fallen in love with, was secretly screwing her ex.My hand trembled as I tucked my phone into my pocket. "How could you?" I said, not recognizing the squeaky, quivering voice coming out of my own mouth. I swallowed hard and atte

MiracleTears blinded my eyes like raindrops falling onto a windowpane. Every time I blinked away the misty moisture, I was assaulted by another wave of fresh tears that threatened to spill over again. I could feel my lower lip quiver.What a cruel world I lived in...Leonel's car disappeared into the distance. The pain was overwhelming, and my heart pounded wildly against my rib cage as it fought to take control of my mind. All of my emotions rushed forth and threatened to drown me. Leonel's accusation was false, but he was right about my stupidity in keeping this to myself without even remembering that he was surrounded by enemies. If I had spoken up and told him about Drake's attempt to kiss me that same day, things wouldn't have spiraled out of control. He would have likely understood that someone might have put Drake up to it. I hated myself for keeping quiet and allowing the situation to escalate.Tears flowed down my face as Travis placed a comforting hand on my shoulder. It

MiracleMy lips curled in distaste, and a bitter taste filled my mouth as Dani and I stepped into the AZ lounge. Despite our exhaustion and heavy eyes, our hotel room felt uninviting. Dani was unfazed, carelessly dropping her bag on the floor as she walked in, while I reached out to flip the light switch. I scrunched up my face in response to the overwhelming stench and my nose wrinkled in disgust.Dani let out a gentle laugh at my reaction. "Can't handle sleeping in a neglected room. It's not your fault though; Leo Hamilton spoiled you rotten."“Stop,” I groaned and I threw her a tired look. Then I turned on the heater. At the very least, it was working.After the crazy plot twist last week, I headed to Dani's house and apologized profusely. She felt sorry for me and forgave me immediately. We were now in Alaska, planning to expose Drake.She collapsed on the bed while I looked out the window at the starry night sky. It was chilly as usual, and I wrapped my arms around myself, shut

Leonel A numb pain squeezed in my heart as I sat in lonely silence. There was nothing to be happy about. It didn't help that the night amplified the silence in my empty house.I was ashamed to say that I missed her. I missed her smell, her smile, the joy that bubbled in her laugh and shone in her eyes. Even her walk had a sunny cheerfulness.I missed Miracle so much that it hurt. My house felt cold and impersonal, and my bed was empty. She wasn't here to snuggle with me and make me feel like a king.That cursed picture of her kissing her ex flashed through my mind, and I felt a sharp tightness in my chest. She betrayed me beyond what words could explain. I was generally very meticulous, but now I didn't give a fuck about the maintenance of my room as bottles of alcohol surrounded my nightstand.This felt like a cruel joke. She cheated on me with someone I was a million times better than, unraveled every secret that we shared, and made me a mere laughing stock.My housekeeper's knock

MiracleI sat on the edge of my bed and fiddled with my phone, pondering the next line of action. That spoiled brat, Nadia Mohammad, must have some guts to ruin my relationship with Leonel.Did she think I was so daft that I would never find out? Not only was I angry, but I was ashamed on her behalf because she was going to end up embarrassing herself.My heart pounded away at this perceived wrong. Dani sprawled out comfortably on the bed, watching me with a smile on her face."Girl, you're becoming quite the nightcrawler, aren't you? Tell me the last time you had a good sleep."My head turned with a snap of my neck. “How can I sleep when all I want is to expose that bitch for paying Drake to make me look like a terrible person? Do you know how awful I felt when those pictures were released?”Dani sat up and stretched out her long legs on the bed. "Is that why you're all wound up? You should be relieved that we now know who's behind all of this.”I got up and began pacing back and for

MiracleWatching Dani gather her belongings formed a lump in my throat. I was going to miss her so damn much. I didn't plan to stay back, but I had nothing to do in LA. Dani hadn't left yet, but I felt so lonely."What's wrong, Mimi?" She laughed, teasing me. "I know you're going to miss me. I'll miss you too, but you're damn stubborn and I don't understand why you have refused to come back with me. We can rent a bigger apartment."My gaze dropped to the floor. "There are so many painful memories there. And maybe I need this isolation to clear my head and figure things out. It's not like I don't have stuff to do but my classes are online.”Dani crossed her arms and stared at me strangely. "I'm not comfortable with you staying back alone. Also, if you want to stay in Alaska, at least consider moving to another part of town far away from your aunt and that psychopath, Drake.""Of course, I'll start looking for a new place," I said flatly. "You go right ahead. I'll live vicariously throu

Leonel Gripping the steering wheel tightly, I felt a surge of anxiety and worry. It was a strange sensation, simultaneously feeling hot and cold. Leana had endured a series of grueling chemotherapy sessions, and now the moment of truth had arrived—the crucial MRI scan that would reveal if the treatment had been effective or not.My heart was consumed with worry. There were days of agonizing treatments for my sister and nights filled with pain. Leana, who used to be full of life and attended parties like no one's business, was now a mere shadow of herself. The harsh effects of the treatment had left her with a pack of bones, and she lost a significant amount of hair.I desperately wanted this last test to bring good news. Despite the hefty sum we had spent on the specialist hospital, cancer was a bastard and didn't care how much one had. It was a sickness that humbled the rich and made the poor beggars. Regardless, I hoped. My sweaty palms continued to drive until I got to the hospita

Miracle I stood behind the counter of my mini-mart, staring at the neatly stocked shelves. Dani shared this brilliant idea a month ago, and I was glad to have pursued it. I got locally sourced produce, household essentials, and snacks of all kinds, and I loved my business so much.Despite not relying on the income, I took pride in the business, and my services were exceptional. Also, it was just a stone's throw away from my home, so whenever I felt like it, I could leave. I also had an effective stockkeeper.There were lonely nights when I would cry myself to sleep, but I grew stronger by the day. I discovered that staying off social media was also a fast way to heal. I missed Leonel, but at the same time, I didn't want to hear anything about him.I headed to my designated study area, which had notebooks on my laptop, and waited for an upcoming lecture. I joined the class and listened, occasionally jotting down notes. My attention shifted when I glanced off and caught sight of my sal

MiracleI got out of the Uber and stood outside Leonel's house. Hot tears streamed down my face. They were tears of frustration, and I had to clamp my lips to imprison a sob. This was too much for me to handle and I had drawn the line. Aunt Suzanne's words and actions deeply hurt me.She was the only family member I had left in the world, yet she kept blaming me unjustly, refusing to see that I didn't mean any harm to her and her family. It was painful, like a stab in the wound, that the person I looked up to as a mother had turned against me.Leonel's car was parked outside. It was surprising that he was home. And annoying because I didn't want him to see me in such a vulnerable state. Leaning against the wall, I bit my lips, wondering how my life would have been if my mom hadn't died. I didn't even know who my father was.Was he alive?Although I had Leonel now, and I had Danny, Linda, Leana, and even Travis, who, by the way, had not bothered to call me ever since his dramatic accu

MiracleI raced through the stark white ICU unit in search of my cousin. It was surreal that I was doing this, and it made me realize that, truly, forgiveness was painful.Ariel was by herself, and I was her only family member nearby, so I set aside any animosity I felt towards her and made sure to be there. I found her room, which was sectioned off with privacy curtains surrounding each bed.The sight of her severely bruised face made me feel nauseous. She was encircled by various medical machines, including heart monitors, ventilators, IV poles, and more. The steady beep of the heart rate monitor reassured me that she was still alive. My legs felt weak, and I grabbed the bed's edge for stability. Nurses moved quietly, tending to the patients, while in the adjacent intensive care unit, Lenny and his family were present. The antiseptic scent of cleaning solution and hand sanitizer made my stomach churn with disgust. I had to swallow hard and increase the coolness of the air condition

LeonelMiracle and I climaxed together, perfectly giving, and taking. My body shuddered, blasted by bombs of pleasure. After cleaning my cock with her tongue and leaving me semi-hard and panting beside her, I fell back and smiled when she got up to clean herself in the bathroom.It was crazy the amount of peace I found with her. My problems were far from over, especially as my brother was smearing the name of the company and making us lose our reputation, yet I couldn't stop the surge of satisfaction that coursed through my veins now that I was going to be a dad. Following her shower, Miracle slipped into one of my comfortable T-shirts and snuggled back under the blankets, nestling her head against my shoulder in a cozy embrace."Is everything okay?" she mumbled sleepily. Her eyes were clouded in a sexual haze, and she batted her eyelashes while staring at me. "Yes, everything is perfect. We will figure this out together," I reassured her.I smiled down at her, brushing a lock of ha

MiracleThis was a situation for me. How could I not know that I had been pregnant for over a month? Everything came as a shock. I was so uncertain and confused, and I didn't even know what to think or how to react.How would Leonel react? Would he want it? I couldn’t see past his doubt for me.Dani watched me stare at the pregnancy strip. Her arms were folded while I bit the inside of my cheek, so lost in thought. I felt so trapped, and my mind began racing through possibilities. The thought of Leonel rejecting this pregnancy caused my breath to catch in my throat."Girl, don't tell me you're worried," Dani said, giving me the stink eye. “You should be happy. This is great news.”I ignored her and began pacing around the room—a habit of mine whenever I was upset or afraid of something. "He's not going to believe me," I kept repeating. "I swear to you, Dani, Leonel will not believe me.""Give me one reason why he won't," she sassed out, irritated by my actions. She knew I was being p

MiracleThe cool night air brushed against my skin as Leonel kissed me. Our tongues were alive with wet heat, and it felt like the world had gone dark around us. I was a mess of hotness, adrenaline, and desire when he pushed his tongue inside my mouth with a hunger that only I seemed able to inspire. He sucked on mine in slow, long strokes, and his hands caressed my body with possessive touches. It was like he was saying, “This is what you are to me, no matter how long we have been apart.”I wrapped myself tightly around him as his mouth trailed along my collarbone to the hollow of my throat.“My love," he whispered, his voice low and husky, "I've missed you so much."His words sent a shiver down my spine, not of cold but of desire. I turned to face him, and our eyes locked in the semi-darkness. "I've missed you too," I confessed, meaning every word.His lips crashed into mine again, this time more urgently than before. My breath came out short in my pants as I tasted the intoxicatin

MiracleI tossed and turned in bed, feeling a restlessness I hadn't experienced in a long time. My mind was flooded with thoughts, recalling the way Leonel frowned with icy anger and the strange way he treated me. His face was etched in my memory, sparking emotions that fired off my veins like thunder.Exhausted from my thoughts, I grabbed my phone and called Dani's number. She was on set, but I sought a diversion or perhaps some comfort."Hey girl!" Dani's voice came through. "How are you? How's it going with the Hamiltons? Any drama?""It depends on how you look at it, but Leonel lost his case." "Oh no!" Dani exclaimed. "That's tough. How did he react?" A gloomy frown spread across my face as I lay back. “Ironically, he didn't blame himself, but instead, he made me the scapegoat. He spoke to me like I was the source of all his problems.”"Fuck. Maybe he still blames you for not keeping your own part of the bargain; you know how it is.""And is that my fault?" I replied, pacing ba

LeonelMy chest caved in, and I stood frozen after the judge had made his pronouncement. I wasn't expecting anything different, but the reality of losing this case to Lenny was a slap in the face. My hand slid loosely onto my hair, which was badly in need of a haircut. I could feel my heartbeat in my throat, and my bleak thoughts kept recycling. Lenny was going to destroy the company. He was going to pull down everything my father had worked for. That was his real intention, and I had to stop him.All eyes were on me, so I had to remain composed. I couldn't wait to get out of the courtroom. I couldn't wait to pour out my anger on someone.My mom hurried towards me with sympathy in her emerald eyes. She widened her hands to hug me, but I held up mine to stop her and recoiled, wondering about the reason for the embrace. Of course, she had good intentions, but I didn't want comfort, not when this defeat stung like a bee. She dropped her outstretched arms with a sigh. "Leonel, sweetie."

MiracleLily and I spent some time together and even went out for lunch. After handing over the necessary documents and enough cash to keep the business afloat, I flew to Los Angeles that weekend. It was a morning flight, and Linda had already booked a first-class ticket for me. I sat near the window, staring at the clear skies with a few fluffy clouds. It was late spring, my favorite season of the year. The other passengers that flew first class were couples in their honeymoon phase. They were too mushy, and no, I wasn't jealous. Acting like I was the sole passenger, I became fully absorbed in my personal entertainment system.We arrived in the afternoon, and it was crazy how hot it was in LA. I got picked up by Linda's driver, a kind, middle-aged man. He tried to make conversation in the car, but my mind was elsewhere. I nodded politely in response to his questions about the weather and other small talk.Finally, we arrived at Linda's house, and I felt a restlessness in my body a

MiracleMemories of my cousin's betrayal blazed in my mind as I flipped the sign on my store to "closed". She had the audacity to show up at my store, asking for trouble. I didn't want to start feeling resentment towards anyone, especially family, but I couldn't help it - her presence ignited a fire of hatred within me.Shaking my head to clear my mind, I was putting my keys in my bag when my phone rang. I dug it out from the bottom of my bag, and the unknown number confused me. When I answered, the voice on the other end left me surprised."Miracle, it's Linda.”I took several gulps of air to compose myself before speaking. "Hi Linda," I said with a very light tone. "How did you get my number?”"Sorry, it took me a while to reach out. With everything that's happened, I wasn't sure what to believe at first. I hope you understand," Linda admitted. And although I had no hard feelings about her, she was free to think whatever she liked."Please tell me, Miracle, where are you?"I stepped
