The contract
Owned by three billionaires /Kayla paige
"Two days?" My voice cracks, barely above a whisper. I stare at Mr. Peterson, my landlord, whose weathered face looks more tired than angry."Two days, Ashley," he repeats firmly. "Two years of unpaid rent. I've been patient, but the bank's breathing down my neck."My hands start to shake. The small, dusty apartment around me suddenly feels like it's closing in. At twenty-four, I've known hardship my entire life. Being an orphan meant learning to survive on my own, but this—this feels like rock bottom."Where will I go?" The words slip out before I can stop them. My entire life flashed in an instant from my parents I lost five years ago , who left me with nothing but a faded photograph and a locket.Mr. Peterson's expression softens slightly. We both know I have nowhere to turn. No family, just me and my only shelter."Please give me more time," I begged but my pleas fell on deaf ears. He drops the eviction notice on my coffee table. The paper looks official, with bold letters and sc

My heart races as I stare at those three names.Mr. Grayson watches me, his eyes sharp and calculating. "You have to choose now," he says flatly. "We don't have all the time in the world."I take a deep breath. How do you pick a husband you've never met? I look down at the brief descriptions next to each name:Liam Grayson: 28. CEO of Grayson Tech. Eldest triplet.Lucas Grayson: 28. International Business Development. Second triplet.Logan Grayson: 28. Head of Grayson Investments. Youngest triplet.My finger hovers between the names.Liam Grayson. Something about his name feels solid. Reliable."I choose Liam," I hear myself say, my voice small in this massive room.Mr. Grayson's eyebrow rises slightly. "Interesting choice," he says, pulling out another document. "Sign here."My hand shakes as I take the pen. One signature to completely change my life.Mr. Grayson makes a quick call. "Maria, prepare for our new family member."A woman in her fifties arrives shortly after, her crisp un

Logan guides me through the elegant hallways, and my heart nearly stops when I see Sarah sitting in one of the mansion's lavish sitting rooms. She jumps up the moment she sees me, tears already forming in her eyes."Ashley!" She runs toward me, pulling me into a tight hug. "I couldn't wait until tomorrow. I had to see you!"I break down in her arms, all the emotions of this crazy day finally spilling over. "Sarah, I'm not supposed to see you anymore. It was in the contract—I just found out.""That's why you need to thank Logan," Sarah says, pulling back to look at me. "He's the one who let me in when the guards tried to turn me away. He said you needed a friend right now."I turn to Logan in surprise. His usual playful smile has been replaced by something more serious. "Everyone needs someone in their corner," he says softly. "Especially in this family. But we can't stay long – dinner's about to be served, and there's a lot we need to discuss.""Thank you," I whisper to him, meaning i

My heart nearly stopped when I saw the three people standing. Relief flooded through me as I recognized Logan and Lucas, both wearing their signature mischievous grins. They called out "Just kidding!" in unison, their laughter echoing through the cathedral.That's when I noticed the third person – a woman so breathtakingly beautiful she looked like she'd stepped off a magazine cover. Long dark hair framed perfect features, and her designer dress hugged every curve. I felt Liam tense beside me as his eyes met hers, his entire body going rigid.The beautiful woman joined in their laughter, gracefully taking her seat again. But I didn't miss the way her eyes lingered on Liam, or the way his jaw clenched before he forced his attention back to the ceremony.The priest cleared his throat, clearly trying to restore order to the proceedings. "You may now kiss the bride," he announced.My stomach filled with butterflies. This was it – my first kiss, and it would be in front of hundreds of peop

Hearing Liam's voice immediately sent a shiver down my spine. I couldn't believe I was almost tricked by Lucas. Still lost in my thoughts, I barely noticed when Liam walked past me and grabbed Lucas by the collar of his shirt. "How dare you come into my room and try to deceive my wife?" Liam shouted. Lucas laughed out loud. "Come on, Liam. It's just a contract marriage to close a deal. Stop making it look so real. Besides, we’re indoors—no paparazzi are watching you." Liam felt a sharp pain in his heart as those words left Lucas's mouth. But he quickly overcame it and said angrily, "I don't care what you believe, Lucas. Ashley chose me. Ashley is married to me. Whether it’s a contract marriage or not, legally—on paper—she’s my wife. So in no—" Lucas cut him short with another annoying laugh. "Oh, Liam, you're claiming her now? Like you love her?" He laughed again, mocking him. "Hah! Liam, she isn’t really your wife, and I have just as much right to her as you do. She just ha

The morning sunlight streamed through my window, its warm rays gently caressing my face. I pulled the duvet over my eyes, longing to capture a few more moments of sleep. The soft golden light mingled with my thoughts—uncertain and jumbled—as I tried to prepare for the day ahead.A sharp, persistent knocking soon interrupted the silence. “Knock, knock,” came the sound again. Reluctantly, I realized that my laziness could no longer keep me in bed. Ignoring the knock for a moment had its cost when the maid’s familiar voice rang out from the corridor. “Mrs. Ashley, you’re starting your wife duties today at the office. Mr. Liam is already getting ready,” she announced in her calm, measured tone. A curse bubbled up within me. “Shit!” I thought, and with a force I didn’t know I possessed, I leapt from my bed. I hurried to the door, flung it open, and made my way to the bathroom for a quick, refreshing shower. After my bath, I found my clothes, shoes, and carefully arranged accessor
