The deal

The last thing Savannah Harper wanted to do was beg a man like Dominic Wolfe for Help. But here she was, standing outside the towering glass building of Wolfe Enterprises, holding her battered purse like a shield. Her heart was racing as she stared at the reflection of the city skyline in the doors. Somewhere inside that skyscraper, the man who could save her family or destroy what remained of it waited for her. Her hands shook a little as she wiped the sweat off her palms against her dress. This wasn't just her last chance; it was her only one. If that failed, creditors would come knocking within days. Her mother, who had worked her fingers to the bone since her father's death, would lose the bakery and the home that came with it. Savannah could already envision the repossession notices taped to the windows, the shame in her mother's eyes as their world crumbled. But even more than that, she was afraid of the man she was about to face. Dominic Wolfe wasn't just a billionaire; he

A stranger's wife

She sat amidst this grand guest room Dominic gave to her, staring at these really fancy decorations: cream paint covering the walls with the slight streak of gold, an enormous bed smothered by satin-white sheets that were definitely too nice for her body. A crystal overhead poured its warm light down at the room. It's all beautiful, but way over-the-top. Her hands fluttered nervously in her lap, a storm of emotions swirling inside her. She hadn't spoken much with Dominic since their wedding. After exchanging vows, he had told her to get comfortable and then gone into his office. She hadn't expected him to be romantic, but their coldness hurt. Her mind was filled with questions. What had she done? What kind of man had she married? Could she really live like this? Every choice she had made in the last week felt desperate. She thought of her mother, whose warm smile was now replaced by worry. Creditors were after them, threatening to take their home and ruin her father's legacy. Savan

a bold intrusion

The day had been quiet for Savannah. Too quiet. The sprawling mansion seemed so big and empty. Every step she took seemed to echo down the hall as a reminder of her loneliness.The staff was polite but distant, sticking to their tasks without too much interaction. She'd spent the morning in the library again, though the comfort she found in the room the day before might have been just a figment of her imagination.She had made it to the lounge by early afternoon: a cozy, formal room of plush cream-colored furniture and large windows that let in the sunlight. She tried to read but her mind kept drifting back to Dominic.The conversation that had taken place in the library last night had left her a little disturbed. For one brief moment, she almost felt she saw a glimmer of a human being behind the cold and calculated facade. But it had vanished as fast as it came, leaving her with a lot of questions.The sound of a car pulling up outside broke into her thoughts. She peered out the wind

The breaking point

Savannah woke up to the sound of soft knocking on her door. She rubbed her eyes, still puffy from crying the night before. The room was dim, the heavy curtains blocking out most of the morning sunlight. “Come in,” she said, her voice hoarse. One of the maids entered quietly, carrying a tray with breakfast. The smell of fresh coffee and warm croissants filled the room, but Savannah’s stomach churned. She had no appetite. “Good morning, Mrs. Wolfe,” the maid said, placing the tray on a small table by the window. Savannah forced a small smile. “Thank you.” The maid hesitated before leaving, glancing at Savannah as if she wanted to say something. “Are you alright, ma’am? You seem... tired.” Savannah shook her head. “I’m fine. Thank you.” The maid nodded and left, closing the door softly behind her. Savannah stared at the untouched breakfast, her mind racing. The events of the previous day played on a loop in her head. Dominic’s coldness, Sophia’s smugness—it all made her feel so s
