Trapped As The Billionaire’s Surrogate Chapter 89: No Point
BLAZEI sat in my office, the afternoon sun filtering through the blinds, casting stripes of light across the mahogany desk.In my hands, I twisted a Rubik's Cube, my fingers moving almost on autopilot, the colors shifting and swirling as I tried to distract myself.But it wasn’t working.My mind kept drifting back to her.To the way she looked, so pale and fragile, lying in that hospital bed.To the way my heart stopped when Austin called me from her phone.I clenched my jaw, twisting the cube faster, more aggressively.The door swung open without warning, and I didn’t need to look up to know who it was.Jared.He leaned against the doorframe, his arms crossed, a smirk playing on his lips. “What’s got you thinking so hard today?”I rolled my eyes, not bothering to look at him. “Nothing.”Jared’s smirk widened as he stepped into the room, shutting the door behind him. “Yeah, sure. You? Thinking about nothing? Unlikely.” He dropped into the chair across from me, lounging comfortably as

BLAZEI stormed through the front door, my chest tight, my fists clenched.Kristen’s words were still ringing in my ears.Faith’s ex is at our doorstep.I moved fast, my heart pounding, my jaw tight with anger.I didn’t know what I was expecting.Maybe for Austin to be standing outside, lingering like some pathetic puppy waiting for her.But nothing could have prepared me for what I actually saw.The living room, bathed in the soft afternoon sunlight, was supposed to be quiet, serene, empty.Instead—I found them together.Faith was sitting on the couch, her head tilted back slightly as she laughed. Her eyes were bright, her shoulders relaxed, her smile…She looked happy.And sitting next to her, too damn close for my liking, was Austin.His eyes were fixed on her, his expression soft, warm. There was a tenderness in his gaze that made my stomach churn with jealousy.He was looking at her like she was his.I saw red.Before I even realized what I was doing, I was moving, my body actin

FAITHI sat on the couch, my legs curled up beneath me as I laughed, the sound light and genuine, echoing through the spacious living room. It felt good—really good—to laugh like this again. To feel… normal.Austin leaned back, his arm draped casually over the back of the couch, his eyes sparkling with amusement. “You remember that time we tried to bake cookies at my place?”I covered my mouth, stifling another laugh. “Oh my god. How could I forget? Your mom was ready to murder us.”Austin grinned, his teeth flashing. “In my defense, I didn’t know you were supposed to measure the flour.”I arched an eyebrow, giving him a playful shove. “You didn’t even use flour. You used powdered sugar, you idiot!”He threw his head back, laughing. “Yeah, yeah, whatever. All I know is, we created the sweetest disaster that kitchen has ever seen.”I smiled, my chest warming at the memory. “I think your mom is still finding bits of that dough in her cabinets.”Austin shook his head, chuckling. “Honestl

FAITHI glanced up and there he was. Blaze.Standing on the first-floor balcony, leaning casually against the railing, a cup of coffee in his hand. His eyes were locked on us, his gaze sharp, intense, unyielding.I narrowed my eyes at him, giving him a look that I hoped screamed, ‘Don’t you have work to do?’Blaze took a slow sip of his coffee, his eyes never leaving mine, his expression calm, composed, and annoyingly arrogant. ‘Nope. Not going anywhere.’I rolled my eyes. ‘Seriously?’ I knew he was jealous. That was obvious. But did he have to watch us like a hawk?Blaze’s eyes flicked to Austin for a second, his jaw tightening, his grip on the coffee cup firm, almost too tight. ‘Yes. I do.’I fought the urge to stick my tongue out at him. I mean, seriously, didn’t he have a company to run? A meeting to attend? Blaze’s lips curled into a faint smirk, his eyes glinting with amusement. ‘Nope. Watching you is way more fun.’I gave him a flat look. ‘You’re ridiculous.’He tilted his hea

FAITHI lay in bed, staring at the ceiling, the shadows shifting across the room as the moonlight filtered through the curtains. Sleep was a distant thought, completely out of reach, no matter how hard I tried to will it to come.My mind was too busy. Too loud. Too tangled in thoughts I didn’t want to confront.Blaze.His name floated through my mind, his face following right behind it. His intense eyes, his sharp jawline, his infuriating smirk that seemed to make my heart race for no good reason.I sighed, turning onto my side, hugging the pillow closer. What was I supposed to do with him?He liked me. He admitted that much. But of course, it had to be complicated. Because Blaze Weston didn’t do commitment. He didn’t do love. He didn’t do futures.All he wanted was… physical attraction. A casual relationship. A fling.I closed my eyes, my chest tightening. He liked me, but he didn’t want me. Not the way I wanted him to. Not the way I had dreamed about.And there was no future here. N

FAITHI made my way downstairs, and there Blaze was, waiting by the door, his arms crossed, his posture relaxed but commanding. His eyes flicked to me as I approached, a small smile playing on his lips.“Ready?” he asked, his voice calm, his eyes warm.I nodded, my chest tightening. “Yeah. Let’s go.”He turned and walked toward the garage, his strides long and purposeful. I followed behind, my heart racing with anticipation.When we reached the garage, Blaze paused, his hand hovering over the keys. “I’ll take the SUV. It’s more comfortable, and you’ll be warm.”I scrunched my nose, crossing my arms. “No. I want the convertible.”Blaze blinked, his eyes widening. “The convertible? At this hour?”I grinned, feeling a playful spark ignite within me. “Yeah. It’s more fun that way. Besides, I’ve never ridden in one before.”Blaze’s jaw tightened, his brows furrowing. “It’ll be windy. And cold. You’ll catch a cold.”I pouted, my eyes widening as I gave him my best pleading look. “Please? I

FAITHI stood by the window, my fingers grazing the cold glass as I stared outside, my mind miles away.Two weeks. It had been two weeks since that night. Two weeks since I saw him.My dad.I let out a slow breath, my chest tightening at the memory. He looked different—older, thinner, almost… broken.I shook my head, trying to push the thought away, but it clung to me, haunting me every night since then. I thought I could just forget about it, forget about him, forget about everything he did. But… I couldn’t.Not when he looked like that. Not when he looked like he had already lost everything.A small, bitter smile tugged at my lips. Serves him right. After everything he did to me, to my mom… he deserved to lose everything.But… even though I knew that, even though I felt that… I still couldn’t get him out of my head.Why? Why did I care? Why was I even thinking about him?I closed my eyes, leaning my forehead against the cold glass. I thought I hated him. I thought I never wanted to

FAITHBlaze blinked, clearly not expecting that. “What?”I sighed, turning back to the mirror, my shoulders slumping. “Look at me. I’ve gotten fatter.”A small chuckle escaped his lips, his eyes softening. “No, you have not.”I glared at him through the mirror, my lips turning downward. “Of course I’m fat. Look, I’m four months pregnant. Of course, I look bigger.”Blaze’s expression softened even more, his eyes glinting with amusement. “Yes, so what if you’re a little bigger? You’re still pretty.”I spun around, my arms flying to my hips as I glared at him. “Who said I’m not pretty? Did you just say I’m not pretty?”Blaze’s eyes widened, his mouth falling open. “What? No! That’s not what I meant.”I narrowed my eyes, my lips pressing together. “So you think I’m fat and ugly now?”Blaze looked like he was having a mini-heart attack. “No! I never said that!”I crossed my arms, lifting my chin. “Then why did you feel the need to tell me I’m still pretty? Huh? What, did you expect me to t

Trapped As The Billionaire’s Surrogate Chapter 118: Bound By Nothing
BLAZEI strode through the hallways of the estate, my mind still burning with the conversation I had just left behind. The tension in my body hadn't eased, and every step I took only fueled the frustration simmering in my chest.But right now, none of that mattered.I needed to see Faith.I stopped in front of her room, my fingers curling into a fist as I knocked against the wooden door. “Faith?” My voice was firm but not demanding.Silence.I frowned, waiting a few more seconds before knocking again, this time a little louder. “Faith, are you awake?”

BLAZEThe drive home was long, and my mind never settled. My fingers tapped against my thigh, my thoughts shifting between the past hour and what lay ahead.Faith.I needed to see her. To check on her. To remind myself that she was okay, that she was safe.But as soon as I stepped inside the house, a servant approached me, bowing his head slightly before speaking. “Sir, your grandfather has requested to see you.”I exhaled slowly, my jaw tightening.Of course.I wanted to go to Faith first. I wanted to see her face, to hear her voice, to know that she was doin

BLAZEI stopped in my tracks, my jaw tightening. Slowly, I turned to look at Jared, my frown deepening.“Of course, it was him,” I said, my voice clipped, cold. “Who else would it be?”Jared raised an eyebrow, tilting his head slightly. “Well… you have a long list of enemies, so you never know. It could be anyone.”I exhaled sharply, running a hand through my hair. He wasn’t wrong. Over the years, I had built up a solid list of people who would love nothing more than to see me suffer. Competitors in business, people I
Trapped As The Billionaire’s Surrogate Chapter 115: What if… not him?
BLAZEThe hallway was dark, the dim glow of the overhead lights barely casting enough illumination to cut through the shadows.My footsteps echoed against the cold, tiled floor, steady and unhurried. The air was thick, heavy, humming with tension, each step pulling me deeper into the darkness.I didn’t rush.I wanted to savor this moment.Jared was already waiting for me at the end of the corridor, his expression blank, his stance rigid. His hands were clasped behind his back, his jaw set, but I knew him well enough to catch the slight stiffness in his shoulders—the barely perceptible sign that he was on edge.Good.He should

FAITHJessica’s heels clicked sharply against the hospital floor as she marched toward me, her arms crossed, her face set in a deep scowl. Her usual pristine elegance was overshadowed by anger, her piercing gaze burning into me.I barely had time to process her words before she continued, her tone sharp, cutting.“You put yourself in danger—worse, you put the baby in danger! What kind of reckless, thoughtless behavior is that?” she snapped, her eyes blazing.I blinked, still dizzy, my mind struggling to keep up. “I… I didn’t—”“And for what?” she cut me off. “To go to some unknown restaurant? Without security? Without even
Trapped As The Billionaire’s Surrogate Chapter 113: What was I Thinking?
FAITHI woke up to the steady beeping of a monitor and the feeling of something cool pressed against my face. My body felt heavy, my limbs weak, my head pounding as though a thousand hammers were striking against it.I blinked against the harsh fluorescent light, my vision blurry, my throat raw and burning.Where was I?I tried to move, but something was strapped to my face—an oxygen mask. Panic stirred in my chest as I took a shallow, raspy breath, the memory of thick smoke and unbearable heat flashing in my mind.The fire.I inhaled too fast, coughing violently, my ribs aching with each sharp motion. A sharp pain shot through my chest, making me wince.A soft, familiar voice broke through the haze.“Take it easy, Miss. You’re in the hospital.”I turned my head slightly to see a doctor standing beside my bed, his expression calm but serious. He was flipping through a chart, his glasses slightly askew.Hospital.I was alive.I tried to speak, but my throat was too dry, too raw.The do

BLAZEThis was a setup. A fucking trap.For her.My chair scraped against the marble floors as I shot up, my heartbeat slamming against my ribs.Jared, who was still standing nearby, frowned. “Blaze? What’s wrong?”I didn’t answer. I was already moving.Jared cursed under his breath and followed. “Damn it, what’s going on?”I stormed out of the office, my mind spinning, panic clawing up my throat. “Faith—she’s in danger. Someone tricked her into going to La Vigna.”Jared’s face paled. &l

BLAZEI walked through the office halls, my shoes tapping against the polished marble floors. The buzz of employees surrounded me—keyboards clacking, hushed conversations, phones ringing.Everything was running as it should be. Efficient. Smooth. Controlled. Just the way I liked it.I nodded in acknowledgment as I passed by different departments, checking in on progress reports, offering a few words of encouragement where needed. It was a routine I had done countless times before, yet today, my mind was elsewhere.Faith.I had plans for tonight. Something simple, nothing extravagant—just something to make her happy. She had been through too much, and if I could bring he

FAITHI stood by the kitchen counter, absentmindedly stirring my tea as my mind replayed last night’s events. My chest felt warm, my heart fluttering, my lips still tingling from his kiss.Blaze.Just the thought of his name sent my pulse racing, my cheeks heating up. I closed my eyes, my fingers curling around the mug, the memory of his touch, his lips, his voice echoing in my mind. I could still feel his warmth, his strength, his presence…“Good morning!”I jolted, nearly spilling my tea as Kristen’s voice echoed through the kitchen. I looked up, my heart pounding, my face flushing as I met her curious gaze.
