CHAPTER ONE

Alexia’s POVI stood outside my boss’s door with a look of shock on my face. My palms were sweating profusely as I clutched the summons letter in my hand. I took out a handkerchief from my purse and whipped my forehead in an attempt to clean my sweat and calm my nerves but none seemed to be working. My heart pounded against my ribs as I thought about the reason I was here in the first place. I couldn’t believe what was happening. I had been accused of embezzlement of company funds. Me? Of all people? The accusation was ludicrous. I had dedicated myself to the company and my boss for five years, working tirelessly and gaining merit from everyone including Ethan who was a very hard man to please. I was in my prime professionally. I woke up this morning hoping to have another fruitful day at the office when I was summoned by Ethan this morning to come to his office to give reasons why I had embezzled company funds. With that summon, everything I had worked for and built for the pas

CHAPTER TWO

Alexia’s POVI read the paper in the file and my eyes widened in shock. I looked up at Ethan who had a face devoid expression as he stared right back at me.“Wh….what is this?” I stuttered as I asked him.“What does it look like?” Ethan cocked his head to the side and replied to me. His expression slowly turned into one of amusement but I didn’t find anything amusing in this situation.I looked back at the file to make sure I wasn’t seeing things but the words were as clear as day and they weren’t an illusion.MARRIAGE CONTRACT BETWEEN ETHAN BLACKWOOD AND ALEXIA THOMPSONThe bold heading swarmed before my eyes. This couldn’t be real, a contracted marriage? How was this going to solve anything? What was Ethan playing at? Did he want to use my moment of weakness to finally get what he wanted from me? So many questions swirled around my head and my composure vanished.I continued reading and my eyes fell on the clauses on the contract.The contract outlined a series of clauses that made

CHAPTER THREE

Alexia’s POVA look of satisfaction crossed Ethan’s face as I signed the contract. I handed the contract papers back to him and he accepted the file and placed it on his desk carefully like it was some lottery ticket.“Good decision, Alexia. You won’t regret this.” Ethan said as he leaned back on his chair and steepled his fingers. “Now about these embezzlement charges. I believe in your innocence Alexia, there’s no way you could have done this, I have worked with you for years now and I don’t know you to be the materialistic type. Which is why I will have a discreet investigator look into your case. Someone who won’t raise any alarms within the company.”I sighed with relief. Ethan believed me and that was all that mattered. I believed with Ethan on my side, I could have a chance of clearing my name. “How will that clear my name?” I asked curious to know about Ethan’s plan.“Let’s just say there might be ....irregularities in the accounting department. Discrepancies that could cas

CHAPTER FOUR

Ethan’s POVA content smile spread across my face as Alexia left the room. This was it, I would finally get what was rightfully mine from my insufferable old man. The kind of rules that man set are just so damn hilarious. I mean I could understand the rules he set in place but why on earth would he include marriage as a necessity? I mean who does that these days? I had already proven to be a worthy heir to the company but he insisted I must settle down before I could think about inheriting the company as the new CEO.Marriage wasn’t an issue; even though I wasn’t feeling the idea of being with a single person for the rest of my life, if I had to get married out of necessity then I would.The real problem, however, was the ladies that flocked around me. All of them, the whole lot of them were a bunch of gold diggers heavily intent on spending my money. Unluckily for them, they end up falling in love with me and they expect a lifelong commitment after I’ve seen their true colours. Th

CHAPTER FIVE

Alexia’s POVOne week later I sat in the bridal suite surrounded by the soft glow of candles and the sweet scent of flowers. This was it, today was the day I would be married to Ethan. My pure white wedding dress hugged my curves in all the right places, it felt like it was tailored just for me. The lace details sparkled like diamonds against the ivory silk, and the veil cascaded down my back like a river of moonlight. It was simply an expensive work of art.I couldn’t believe he had sent this two days before the wedding. I had already decided to use my mother’s wedding gown when he sent this with a simple note that read: This would suit you perfectly. He wasn’t wrong, it wasn’t too tight and it wasn’t too loose. It was just perfect.I glanced at the mirror at my right to stare at my reflection. My makeup was applied with a light hand just as I requested. My red hair was styled in a chic low bun that showcased my bare neck.Tears misted over my eyes as I began to think about the c

CHAPTER SIX

Alexia's POV“I object to this wedding! Alexa is a fraud and she has bewitched Ethan” A beautiful brunette with the body of a model declared vehemently, eyes flashing with barely restrained rage as she walked to the front”I was shocked by her allegations since I am quite sure I have never met or spoken to her before. Turning away from the intruder, I met Ethan's gaze, quietly asking him to explain what in the world is going on here and why is there a stranger accusing me of being a fraud!“Alexia please calm down, I will handle this! Just give me a minute to seek this out” he whispered to me, and with a louder voice, “If you would excuse me for ten minutes Father, I would like to sort out this misunderstanding” he said addressing the Priest, who in turn nodded his understanding.“I should come with you”“That won't be necessary! You just wait here, I will be back before you know it” Without waiting for my response, he strode off to meet with the strange lady, who had been joined b

CHAPTER SEVEN

Ethan's POVThe reception party was in full swing, people dancing and everyone celebrating while I stood in a corner completely mesmerized by Alexia's beauty. I knew that gown would look perfect on her the moment the stylist I paid to get the dress, sent a picture to me. It hugged her beautiful curves in an addictive way and brought out her hair color.She was so engrossed in dancing with her brothers that it felt like she was the only one there, the way her body moved with reckless abandon. This is the first time I've seen her act so carefree. I wished I was the one dancing with her. I know the whole getting married to me so abruptly is still difficult to process, I practically gave the poor girl an ultimatum. Marriage or prison. I don't know what my mother and Lisa's plan was. Like why would they think it was smart to try and disrupt the wedding? I need to apologize to Alexia when we finally get some alone time.I get tired of watching her dance because I'd rather she dances with me

CHAPTER EIGHT

Alexia's POV The drive to the Blackwood mansion started quiet and depressing. I had a lot of doubts in my mind. From leaving my brothers alone to moving in with his family knowing how much they dislike me. I must look like an opportunistic gold-digger to them and I don't want to think about myself in that light.I thought it would continue being depressing but luckily for me Ethan noticed my mood and tried to cheer me up. I can't deny the fact that his method of cheering me up worked. I would say being a playboy made him have such a good way with words.Despite Ethan being a well-known playboy, I know he is a good person. I have worked with him for years and even though he has tried to flirt with me multiple times after I drew the line he stopped. He didn't become mean or anything, he just stopped trying to get me into his bed except for the occasional jokes he'd make. Now look at us, together. Married too but not in love. Never, Ethan and love can't be put in the same sentence.We f

CHAPTER NINE

Alexis's POVI wake up feeling slightly refreshed but still very much exhausted. I search for my phone and see it's still 4 am. I look at the other side of the bed where I can't help but notice Ethan's absence.I don't even think he slept here last night but I can't think of where else he would be. Out with his other women! That nagging voice screamed in my head. I shouldn't care what Ethan does with his life; the contract gave him that much liberty but I can't help but feel slightly annoyed. Like couldn't he wait one more day before trying to get away from me?I sigh in frustration. This is not the married life I dreamed for myself but then like earlier stated I had dreams and this is the hard cold reality.I drag myself from the bed to get into the ensuite bathroom. Perks of being married to a billionaire I suppose. I take a nice long relaxing shower that helps calm my nerves.After that, I feel much more refreshed and ready to take on whatever the day has for me. I walked out of th

CHAPTER TEN

One week later…Alexia’s POVIt’s been a week, and one thing I can say with full confidence is that I hate being married to Ethan. The funny part is Ethan isn’t even the real problem. The problem I have is his family. They find new ways to make me uncomfortable.Mr. Blackwood has barely said ten words to me which is at least better than his wife who never misses an opportunity to insult me. I think the highlight of it for me was the day I tried to do something nice and cook for the family. This woman spat in my food. I remember what she said like it happened just yesterday. That is because it did happen yesterday, silly. My inner voice mocks me.My mother-in-law said, “This is the biggest abomination I have ever tasted. Can you do anything useful at all?” her words stung more than I’d care to admit. Ethan had said absolutely nothing to defend me. His father remained silent while Mrs. Blackwood dropped insult after insult on me. I don’t know what I did wrong to this woman except for ma
