AIDEN'S POV

Jeffrey King, my father choked on his fancy fish eggs. The next day, he decided to fix my problem by putting me on a plane and taking me to Norway, where he had a visit planned at one of Royal Pipelines’ oil drilling sites.

Maria, the Norwegian woman who took away my virginity, was in her early thirties, about a head taller than my teenage self, and looked completely confused when I almost threw up on her lap. I didn’t want to lose it, not that young, not to a stranger, and definitely not in a fancy brothel on a side street . But doing things to make my father happy wasn’t new to me.

It was just another normal day in the King household, where my father held power over me like a reward to make me do what he wanted.

Stand straight.

Don’t use bad words.

Don’t spell anything wrong, fall off a horse, eat with bad manners, or look my father in the eye.

So, I put on a condom and did what was expected of me. When I walked out of the room, my father patted my ba

  • The Merciless Billionaire's Contract Marriage    Chapter 12: Cards On The Table

    AIDEN'S POV She ignored Henry, Micheal, and Devon, showing more courage than all three of them. Petar stood beside her, protective as ever. Aurora lifted her chin, refusing to back down. Soaking wet and close to falling sick, she still looked breathtaking and in that moment, I finally understood why I always chose to focus on her older sister when we were in the same room. Annabelle didn’t shake me or completely take over my thoughts. Neither did she make me feel anything real. She was just another woman who was confident, loud, always demanding attention but Aurora was different. She is Honest and Real. “Your offer.” Her voice was smooth and sweet. “I accept it.” She accepted.I wanted to break something. No, not just something, everything. I wanted to bring my whole mansion down to the ground. Because the deal she was accepting? It was no longer on the table. Her cheeks turned red, but she didn’t move, standing her ground despite the puddle of water forming at her feet.

    AURORA'S POV He was marrying someone else. I was really late. I showed up near midnight, looking and feeling like trash. And he didn’t even look at me. What did I expect? You thought he saw you as more than just someone to carry his baby. But that was my first and last mistake about Aiden King. I walked from my bike to my apartment, stomping on puddles on purpose. It was late, raining hard, and my windbreaker was ripped from the long ride back and forth from Back Bay. My fingers and toes were numb. Maybe they had fallen off, and I just hadn’t noticed. Not like it would matter when Peter and Kenneth finally cut me up and fed me to the crows. Wherever you are, Thomas, I hope you suffer twice as much as me. I opened the front door to my building, I mean Annabelle’s building. I had no home, I reminded myself. It was dark, cold, and smelled like mold. I took a step toward the stairs when something hit my face hard. My cheek burned so much that my eyes filled with tears. A loud noise

    AIDEN'S POV "Employee pay in the oil and gas industry is going up, and we’ve come up with a great plan to keep our best employees and attract new talent to Royal Pipelines…" My mind wandered as my HR director, Keith, gave one of the dullest speeches I had ever heard in my long business career. Across from me, Henry was on his phone, probably renewing his Pornhub Premium subscription. Devon sat beside me, playing his part as the head of compliance by frowning at his phone and ignoring the foreign calls going straight to voicemail. He was supposed to inherit a dukedom in a few years if he ever went back to England. But he refused to step foot there. I tapped my pen against the table, staring out the window. Three days had passed since Aurora showed up at my door and accepted my offer. Three days where I had time to think about how a storm had really shut down most of Boston’s public transportation that day. Three days where I completely forgot Nina Pierce existed. Three days

Aiden: You mean my schedule is clear because you used your few brain cells to fix it. That’s what I PAY YOU FOR. Casey: Yes, sir. What should I do about the engagement ring? Aiden: Send Ms. Pierce a big check and an apology note. I’m not marrying her. Casey: OMG, really? Casey: Sorry, I mean, is the spot still open, sir? ;) Casey: I would make a great wife. I can cook, fish, and babysat a lot of kids. I also know… other things.One day I'll really have to fire my useless assistants but for now I have other pressing matters to take care of. I got out of the elevator, my shoes tapping on the marble floor. Through the big window, I saw the black SUV waiting outside, with the freezing snowstorm behind it then I got in the back seat and told the driver Aurora’s work address. Casey: Never mind. Sorry. That was wrong of me. If you’re not marrying Ms. Pie

    AIDEN'S POV Now that I looked closer, her lower lip was swollen, her cheek was bruised, and even with heavy makeup, I could see a dark bruise around her left eye. She turned her head away, tilting it down to hide the damage. “It’s nothing. None of your business, anyway.” The loan shark had stopped making threats and moved on to actions. My pulse picked up. I cracked my knuckles. I wasn’t sure why her injuries bothered me so much. She was alive and mostly fine. But the thought of someone laying a hand on her…hurting her… “You have ten minutes to finish up and meet me outside. You should know by now, I don’t like waiting.” I turned and walked back to the Escalade, already regretting this marriage. No painkiller in the world could save me from the headache Aurora was about to bring into my life. She showed up minutes later, wrapped in a cheap coat with two holes in it. I opened the back door for her. She climbed in, and I followed. “Drive around,” I told my c

    AIDEN'S POV I wasn’t used to being drawn to a particular person. Honestly, I wasn’t even sure if I could want a woman. And if I could, I was certain it would come with problems I wouldn’t enjoy. Aurora took another small puff of the cigar, then passed it back to me. Our fingers brushed. A jolt of electricity shot up my spine in a sensation I could only describe as both horrible and pleasant. I wanted to kiss her and kick her out of the car. Preferably at the same time but for the sake of my legal team, I did neither. “What else would this marriage include?” She looked down and licked her lip. "You will go with me to events, help at my charity, and play your part as a dutiful wife.” “Hmm.” She sank into the seat, stretching like a spoiled cat against the leather. “Anything else?” “You’ll sign a strict NDA and an ironclad prenup. But as long as we’re married, you’ll be well taken care of.” “What if you leave me for someone else?” I could barely handle the idea of one marr

    AIDEN'S POV Aiden. Only my friends and family call me by my first name. By friends , I mean All two of them. “The only reason I like you more than Nina is because if something happened to you, the women in my life would be upset. And the one thing I hate more than people are emotional people.” “I don’t care what reason you tell yourself for marrying me,” Aurora said flatly. “If we get married, we’ll be equals. At least, you’ll pretend we are.” I cracked my knuckles one by one. She was pissing me off. That was a feeling, and I didn’t do emotions. “Let me be clear.” I smiled, but it didn’t reach my eyes. “I’m not staying celibate for weeks or even days.” “You won’t have to. You’ll have a wife.” Her face was so red I thought she might explode right there in my car. That would be a pain to clean, not to mention hard to explain. “No.” My muscles tensed under my suit. “No, what?” “I won’t sleep with you.” “Why not?” “Because I don’t want to.” “Why?”

    AURORA'S POV The next day, Devon, Aiden's lawyer and friend knocked on my apartment door, looking like trouble in a sharp navy blue suit and a fresh haircut. Meanwhile, I was standing there in a six year old Walmart dress, worn out shoes, and a discounted windbreaker from the Salvation Army. “Mr. Devon?” I mumbled, hugging the door frame and stifling a yawn. He walked right past me, stepping into the tiny studio apartment. Annabelle was still asleep in our shared bed, wearing nothing but a thin red nightgown, one bronzed leg tossed over the blanket. He stopped, taking in the view. “And who is this goddess?” “That would be my sister, Mr. Zeus. Now, if you could kindly stop staring at her legs” Devon turned back to me, sighing, and shoved a thick stack of paperwork against my chest. Like Aiden, he had the ability to make the air shift around him. But while Aiden made me want to fall apart in his arms, Devon gave off a different energy. Something more mysterious. “I fille

    AURORA'S POV Annabelle’s eyes went straight to my half-open shoulder bag hanging from my seat. A drawing from one of my students, Riley, for Greta Reynolds was peeking out. It had her name on it with flowers and hearts.“Does he know you still see Thomas’s grandmother every week?” Annabelle asked.“He found out yesterday,” I said, cutting a meatball with my plastic fork.“Yikes,” my sister winced. “How did you tell him?”“I didn’t. Someone else did.”“Who?” Ariella’s blue eyes went wide.I wasn’t sure, but it wasn’t hard to guess that it was Herold Landon or his wife who told Aiden. I shrugged. “Not sure. But it’s out now. He told me to stop seeing her.”“Ugh, he has no right to tell you what to do,” Annabelle said, clearly forgetting her promise to stop badmouthing my husband after losing a poker game. “Your marriage has a big price, but being a feminist isn’t one of them.”“I refused,” I said calmly.Ariella rubbed my arm. “At least you tried.”“And succeeded,” I added, taking ano

    AURORA'S POV The next day, I stayed in the teachers’ lounge during lunch, holding my leftover sandwich . I kept moving from one foot to the other, feeling like a kid who got in trouble. My butt still hurt, but the pain Aiden left inside me hurt even more. Sex with Aiden wasn’t just good. It was amazing. Powerful. Like nothing I’d ever felt before. But the way he quickly pulled away and acted like nothing happened made me dizzy. Not because I wanted cuddles and sweet talk but because the way he changed so fast from warm to cold shocked me. The strong feelings I had for him scared me, and wanting to keep him safe made me feel sick. Not just sick. Crazy. Wrong. I never gave up my values for Thomas. Now I understood why Aiden paid for sex. It wasn’t just because he liked strange things. It was because he lost control when he was with someone. He came alive, he cursed, he stopped holding back. He dropped the careful mask he always wore, like a snake losing its old skin leaving him exp

    AIDEN'S POV "Gladly. You’re excused. Have been for the six minutes since we finished," I said, waving her away. Her breasts looked amazing, especially when she suddenly stood up. They were full and shaped like pears, with pink nipples that looked like tiny diamond studs. My wife picked up her dress from the floor and put it back on, shaking her head. “Petar will call the driver for you,” I said, putting the cigar between my lips and texting my estate manager while she shoved her feet into those awful Manolo Blahnik heels that always gave her blisters. “Screw you, Aiden.” “Sure. How about tomorrow? I’m free at lunch. If that doesn’t work, you’ll have to wait until I get home around nine-thirty.” She didn’t answer. Just turned around and marched toward the door. She stopped at the door, her hand on the wall, and looked back at me over her thin shoulder. “I’m just like you, you know.” “Highly doubt it,” I said, not looking up from my phone and already replying to an email from m

    AIDEN'S POV I was trying to push her to her limit, hoping she’d give up, agree to the IVF, and leave me alone. But she did what I told her. She played with her pussy by touching, pulling, and holding her full breasts. The older man looked up from his roses and froze, staring up at our window. Aurora Knight was supposed to be good, polite and innocent but she was wild and dirty, just like me. That made her dangerous for me. Like a drug I couldn’t quit. “That’s it,” I whispered into her ear, moving harder inside her as goosebumps covered her skin. “Open your legs and rub yourself on my window. Show the neighbor what your husband does to you, my sweet, beautiful slut.” I thought this would finally break her. That she couldn’t and wouldn’t, but she surprisingly did. She opened her thighs and touched herself as I kept thrusting from behind. The man didn’t move. He stood there, staring at my wife rubbing herself on the glass while I fucked her hard from behind. Her clit pressed again

    AIDEN'S POV It felt nice. “Now show me why you moved far away from your exes. What kind of wild things did you do with them?” I asked. Then without waiting for an answer, Aurora grabbed my hand and dragged me to the hallway, looked around and waited for me to lead the way to my bedroom. I did even though I knew she snooped around my house when I wasn’t home. I saw it on the cameras when Petar gave her a tour. I closed the door and locked it, just to be sure. She stood in front of me, slowly sliding off her dress and letting it fall to the floor like soft snow then grabbed my hand and placed it gently on the front of her pale neck. "Is this what you like?" she asked. Her chest moved fast with her quick breaths, and her eyes were full of excitement. "You did this that day… that time…” The day I threw her out, screaming. “Or…” She moved my hand down her body to her backside and slid it between her cheeks. “Maybe this? I don’t mind doing things with you, Aiden. I’ll do anything, a

  • The Merciless Billionaire's Contract Marriage    Chapter 57: Please, Fuck Me Harder

    AIDEN'S POV She moved closer to me without waiting, soft and ready. Perfect. I had never met someone so easy to touch, yet so hard to control. We were pressed against each other. Her sweet, flowery smell filled my nose. “Seen your Aunt Tia lately?” I asked, touching her cheek with my hand. She took a shaky breath, her whole body shaking from just that small touch. I wondered if she reacted like this with her ex-husband. Did she shake like this when she was with the man she had picked?. The man I had sent her back to. “Yeah… I did,” she said, her voice unsure. “I think it was… Tuesday?” She couldn’t think clearly. And, sadly, neither could I. I lowered my head as she lifted hers. Her lips opened for me. I kissed her, pressing my knee between her legs. Her body pressed tighter against mine. She let out a small sound and pushed her chest to mine, rubbing against me like she needed more. My tongue played with hers as I held her face and kissed her deeper then moved my mouth down

    AIDEN'S POV She turned pale under her makeup and stepped back, almost falling. I reached out, grabbed her arm, and helped her stand. And still maintained the polite smile on my face to onlookers. "That’s what I thought. If you tell anyone that my wife visited her old grandmother in law, I’ll make sure everyone in America finds out your husband cheats on you. Have a good night, Mrs. Landon." "Aurora will sleep at my house tonight. No need to stop at her apartment," I told my driver as we got into the back of the car. Aurora took off her high heels with a happy sigh then leaned her head against the cool leather seat, too tired to talk about what just happened. She had danced with every important man at the party tonight. She was passed from one man to another, like a shiny toy. Everyone wanted to see the woman who had won over The Villain. Since most people had stopped trying to talk to me, Flower Girl was the next best thing. "Looks like you’re starting to like me," she said,

    AIDEN'S POV If Aurora felt weird, she didn’t show it. She put her hand in Herold’s. I had to try really hard not to jump in and pull her away from him.It was just a dance. And maybe it was good practice because one day, I’d have to see her with someone else. That would happen in a few years, after she gave me kids and finally gave up on me and my cold heart.We’d end up like my parents. Polite strangers, staying together only because of deals, shared stuff, and what people expected.Now I was stuck alone with horse faced Morgana and her annoying twins. Morgana leaned on the bar with a sly smile and lipstick that didn’t look right.“She’s sweet,” she said.“She’s fine,” I answered.I should have looked away from Aurora in Herold’s arms, but I couldn’t. Watching them made me feel strange. My head started to hurt. Mrs. Landon’s eyes lit up with interest.“That’s not a great thing to say about a wife you can’t stop staring at. How’s married life so far?”I looked at her face. No wonder

  • The Merciless Billionaire's Contract Marriage    Chapter 54: May I Have This Dance Mrs King?

    AIDEN'S POV One reason I really liked Aurora was because she had very good manners. She stood up, gave a friendly smile, and held out her hand to my enemy, even though she didn’t have to. “Aurora King. Nice to meet you.” “Herold Landon, and this is my wife, Morgana. I think you’ve already met my sons, Tinder and Tree.” “They made quite an entrance.” Aurora laughed and gently brushed Tinder’s wet hair out of his face. Don’t touch his kid. “I’m bored. Can you play with me, princess?” Tinder pulled on my wife’s dress, still wet from the champagne he made her spill. I wasn’t jealous of a five-year-old. I really wasn’t. Even if the way my wife looked at him made me annoyed. “This place is boring, huh?”. She then winked at him like they shared a secret. “ So, let’s go find something fun and exciting to do.” “No, thank you. We still need to say hi to some people.” Morgana pulled her kids closer. She was having a hard time keeping them still. She looked plain, especially next to my
