These Reckless Vows: The Billoniare’s Bride
🔞 Spicy 🔞“You're a long way from safe, Miss Allard,” he whispers, his fingers tracing the strap of my bra until I shiver. "If you want to turn around, I’d suggest you do so now.”
I stare up at him, watching as his dilated grey eyes dip to my cleavage.
“Where will I go, Mr. Sinclair?” I dare to ask, “Where can I go that you won’t find me?”
****
24 year old Ava Jade Allard has a few problems, but like most issues, there’s nothing a little money can't fix. So when Ava attends an art show to sell a few of her paintings to some of the richest, high-society members of New York, she’s sure she can kill two birds with one very rich stone.
In and out, just like she hoped.
But New York seems set on eating Ava whole, and as one mess leads to another, she finds herself in the arms of Billionaire Leonel Sinclair, a ruthless CEO who is still dealing with the consequences of a scandal he was entangled in 4 years ago.
Now more desperate than when she started, Ava reluctantly turns to this stone-cold, terrifying, but somehow insanely hot Billionaire to help her set right what was wronged 4 years ago, while somehow doing the same for him, and with one contract marriage, Ava signs away her single status, anonymity and possibly her soul.
Will this contract fix the manytraumatic wrongs of her past, or will Ava crumble under the weight of her grey-eyed, stoic CEO, whom she seems less and less able to keep her body and heart away from with each passing day?
What happens when Ava agrees to these reckless vows and emerges as the Billionaire’s Bride?

Chapter: BOOK TWO TEASER: These Fighting Desires16 Years Later Valentina Sinclair ~~~~ “I thought my parents loved me.” Willow and I lay shoulder-to-shoulder, simmering in our shared annoyance. “Same.” She responds, tilting her head to stare at me, “Do you think if I beg Aunt Ava enough she’d stop this from happening?” I scrunch my nose, thinking of what mum would say if Willow talked to her. “Willow, angel, this is such an amazing family tradition.” I mock my mum’s enthusiastic voice. Willow giggles, “And then uncle Leonel will join in, cause he’s always on aunt Ava’s side.” I lower my voice to try to get Dad’s deep tone. “Your mother wants the best for you, mi mundo, and so do I.” Willow covers her face with her red-gel fingers, her shoulders shaking from laughter. “Uncle Leonel will murder you if he finds out you were mocking him and your mum.” She breathes between chuckles. “Oh please. My parents would die before they ever punish me. They’re such softies.” It helps that I’m actually good. The straig

Chapter: Epilogue lllAva ~~~ Surprise, surprise, Leonel makes love to me in the car before we head to the office. I’m still coming down from the high of being eaten out when he swerves into the car park, looking at me with creased brows. “Are you okay?” He murmurs, resting one hand on my belly and the other on my cheek. These days, he’s been a little overbearing. But honestly? After Jaxon, I’ll take my overprotective husband any day. “I’m fine.” I assure him. We’re greeted at the door by my favourite receptionist, Fiona, and when she spots my small belly, I can see her mind reeling to ask if I’m pregnant or just overfed. “We’re expecting Fiona. You can ask.” Leonel’s husky voice says low enough to almost make me whimper. Fiona lights up, and I can’t help blushing as she squeals, “Oh, that’s wonderful Sinclairs! No wonder you haven’t been to the office in some time Mrs Sinclair. I’m overjoyed for you!” “Thank you, Fiona,” I say shyly, and Leonel squeezes my hand. Right then, the eleva

Chapter: Epilogue llAva ~~~ Leonel and I manage to pull ourselves out of bed, and after another fuck in the shower leaves my legs jellied, I actually consider hauling my pregnant ass back into bed. Sike. Now, my post-sex glow stares back at me from the mirror. I twist to admire my little belly in my pantsuit, loving the weight of my baby. I'm not the only one. Leonel wraps his big arms around me, soothing my stomach and whispering, “You get more beautiful every time I see you.” I scoff, “You mean I get bigger?” “Ava.” he warns, “don't do that. It's healthy weight, and you look good.” he nips my ear, “delicious even.” I stifle my moan. The last thing I want is for my sexy husband to seduce me into not going to the office. I intertwine our fingers and change the subject, “I have a feeling the baby’s a girl.” Leonel’s eyes glow, “a mini you? I'm so fucked.” I blush all the way to the dining room. Leonel insists on carrying me down the stairs, like he has every day since I showed him my

Chapter: Epilogue l3 YEARS LATER Leonel ~~~ “You’re going to be the death of me.” I grunt, sliding out of Ava just so I can push into her again. She moans, and the sound awakens every nerve in my body. “Leonel.” She whispers, still so sleepy. My favorite part of the day these days has been waking her up with my cock. But I’m careful, I have to be. I kiss her, moving my lips as gently as I’m driving into her. She whimpers that sweet noise that always almost makes me cum. “Oh fuck.” She says softly, then whines, “You can go harder.” “I don’t want to hurt you.” I grunt, even as it takes all my energy not to go rough. One bare breast peaks from beneath the covers, and I resist sucking that hardened pink nipple. She isn’t satisfied. I can tell from how she keeps arching up, telling me with her body that she needs more. I trail down her neck, hoping butterfly kisses make up for my softness. “Harder.” She pants. I kiss her nose, “No.” Frowning, she wraps her legs around my thrusti

Chapter: Sex, Suites, and Proposals (VI)Ava ~~~ The boat rocks beneath us, and a band plays their violins for Oliver and Evie take their proposal pictures. I feel good. Like, I got high for the first time good. Every time I glance to Leonel, my insides turn to jelly, and all I can imagine is him railing me again. Or… making love to me, if you feel like being poetic. “Are you okay?” He whispers, “are you… sore?” “Baby, if you ask me that fucking question one more time I might just break up with you.” He laughs, but it’s short and strained, “I just want you to be okay. I’ve never slept with a virgin before and I know the first time can be hard.” “First two times you mean.” I insist, reminding him we did it from the back right before we came here. The tips of his ears actually turn pink, “Ava, I’m serious.” I know, and that’s what’s so infuriating. How can anyone be serious at a time like this? We’re in Paris. All our threats are dead or backed off. Our friend’s are about to get engaged. Most impo

Chapter: Sex, Suites and Proposals (V)Leonel ~~~ God, I love this woman. Ava looks like an angel, curled into my chest as she snores softly. I rub my hand over her cheek, then through her hair. I don’t think I’ve told her how much I love this short look on her. Gently, I fix her bra, remembering how hungry I’d been when I yanked it down, then I peel myself away from her so I can run a shower. “No.” She protests, reaching for me, still half-asleep. I kiss her nose, chuckling, “I want to wash off.” “No,” she says again, then cracks open one beautiful green eye, “stay with me.” Well, there’s no arguing with that. I take my pants and boxers off entirely, throwing them to the ground where my t-shirt is, before snuggling under the covers with her. She sighs happily, wrapping her legs around my waist. She’s so magnificent. Everything about her makes me fall even more in love. It’s no wonder I came so fast. I can still hear her desperate moans, her passionate panting. The way she said my name, and don’t even ge

Désirer Mon Némésis Contractuel: La Fiancée du Milliardaire
« Vous êtes loin d'être en sécurité, Mademoiselle Allard », chuchote-t-il, ses doigts traçant la bretelle de mon soutien-gorge jusqu'à ce que je frissonne. « Si vous voulez faire demi-tour, je vous conseille de le faire dès maintenant. »
Je lève les yeux vers lui, regardant ses yeux gris aux pupilles dilatées plonger vers mon décolleté.
« Et où irais-je, Monsieur Sinclair ? » osé-je demander. « Où puis-je aller sans que vous ne me retrouviez ? »
À 24 ans, Ava Jade Allard accumule les ennuis. Mais comme pour la plupart des problèmes, il n'y a rien qu'un peu d'argent ne puisse régler. Alors, quand Ava se rend à une exposition d'art pour vendre quelques-unes de ses toiles à la haute société new-yorkaise, elle est certaine de pouvoir faire d'une pierre deux coups... et un coup très riche.
Entrer, vendre, et repartir. C'est tout ce qu'elle espérait.
Mais New York semble bien décidée à n'en faire qu'une bouchée. De fil en aiguille, un fiasco en entraînant un autre, elle se retrouve projetée dans les bras du milliardaire Leonel Sinclair, un PDG impitoyable qui panse encore les plaies d'un scandale survenu quatre ans plus tôt.
Plus désespérée que jamais, Ava se résigne à se tourner vers ce milliardaire glacial, terrifiant, mais affreusement sexy, pour l'aider à réparer les injustices du passé. Tout en faisant de même pour lui, elle sacrifie son célibat, son anonymat et peut-être même son âme en signant un contrat de mariage.
Ce contrat effacera-t-il les traumatismes de son passé, ou Ava finira-t-elle par se briser sous le poids de ce PDG stoïque aux yeux gris ? Un homme dont elle semble de moins en moins capable d'éloigner son corps et son cœur, les jours passant.
Que se passera-t-il lorsque Ava prononcera ces vœux imprudents pour devenir l'épouse du milliardaire ?

Et même si je brûle d'envie de parler de mon art, j'aurais tellement aimé le faire avec lui à mes côtés.Pourtant, c'est une opportunité phénoménale.

Je ne l'ai jamais connu très expressif, mais en cet instant, il se livre à moi sans armure, et tout son être me crie qu'il m'aime.J'entrouvre les lèvres pour répliquer, mais chaque mot du dictionnaire semble avoir déserté mon cerveau, et je me demande s'ils y reviendront un jour.Aucun homme, pas même James, ne m'avait jamais dit qu'il m'amait. Et jamais, en un million d'existences, je n'aurais imaginé que le premier serait Leonel Sinclair. Ce même Leonel Sinclair qui, en moins de six mois, m'a fait vibrer plus intensément que quiconque au cours de mes vingt-quatre années de vie.« Leonel, je… » commencé-je dans un murmure, avant de m'interrompre, incapable de formuler la moindre suite.« *Y te ves como todo lo que siempre he querido* », dit-il en espagnol, ses yeux plantés dans les miens à m'en brûler les rétines

La seconde d'après, je griffe le devant de sa robe. Je grogne en agrippant la dentelle à pleines mains.Je déchire le tissu dans toute sa longueur, désespéré de la sentir davantage, de la posséder, de m'enfoncer dans sa putain de chatte trempée.« Oh, putain », s'écrie-t-elle, me débarrassant de ma veste entre deux respirations saccadées.« Je suis désolé », marmonné-je déjà entre deux baisers, mais elle ne me regarde pas. « Ava, je suis tellement désolé, il y a une autre robe ici, je— »Elle lève enfin ses yeux vers moi, et son regard me flanque une décharge monumentale. « Ferme-la et embrasse-moi, Leonel.

Même si je crève d'envie de les bousculer pour rejoindre l'endroit où se tiennent Ava et Nicco, je me force à afficher mon sourire le plus crispé et déclare d’un ton que je ne qualifierais pas d'accueillant :« Je le lui fais envoyer. »James Ferguson, qui s’était frayé un chemin jusqu'au premier rang pour m'interroger sur le téléphone, se fige net en entendant le ton de ma voix.Je sais que je devrais me montrer d'une amabilité exemplaire avec lui, d’autant plus que mon attitude ce soir dictera ma réputation pour les jours à venir, mais je n’arrête pas de revoir Nicco penché vers Ava, les paupières mi-closes par le désir.Il n’y a pas à tortiller : il a envie d’elle.

Je regarde l'homme aux cheveux cendrés ouvrir grand la bouche et rouler des yeux avant de glisser entre les bras de mon garde du corps. James s'effondre sur le sol, dans une mare de sang qui s'étend. Il ne se relève pas. Je balance mon arme de côté alors que j'entends les hurlements affreux de Riggs. Il secoue les barreaux de sa cage jusqu'à ce que Kenzo s'avance vers lui de deux pas décidés. Un bruit sourd retentit — je sais que Kenzo vient d'assommer Riggs —, puis le donjon plonge dans un silence de mort. Un putain. De silence. De mort.Cette absence de bruit fait résonner la voix farouche d'Ava dans ma tête dix fois plus fort que d'habitude, me répétant de ne pas faire de mal à son ex, du moins pour le moment.Mon cœur se serre tandis que je contemple ce connard, immobile par terre.

And for the most part, it worked: I waited for her to see I was worth loving, and when we had our first kiss just outside her house, I knew I had finally gotten my wish.I waited for her to choose me, and over and over again she did. I was grateful. I was in love.And then, when the war happened, I waited for her to pick me again.This time, it wasn’t as easy as the other times. This time, she wanted to get away from me.So I can’t understand what it’s like, loving someone as deeply as I loved my Quinn and having that affection thrown in the mud.I was upset, to say the least.But not half as upset as when she died.It was an accident.

Chapter: Chapter 172: OliviaThe drive is long, but the silence is longer. I spend the first half of the way there darting my eyes out of the windows, afraid Nester would be running behind us with gleaming, angry eyes. But an hour in, with no sign of any other life except the five of us, I realize Nester/Principal Watson isn’t anywhere on our trail. I don’t know if that makes me feel better or worse. What I do know is that once the anxiety of that wears down, a completely different, overtaking stress hits me as I glance at my boys. By taking me away, they are taking away their opportunity to graduate. “We have to go back,” I state plainly. Axel barks a harsh laugh from the driver seat. “Good to see you’re no longer in pain.” “Axel, I’m serious.” He slows down for a second so he can stare at me. “So are we.” I let out an anxious huff, turning to Hunter in the passenger seat, “Get him to turn the car around.” “Not doing that,” Hunter says. It’s so simple, as if he isn’t leaving his parents behind. Ryker

So maybe it’s all three. Maybe it’s none of that. All I know is if we don’t get out of this school before Principal Watson finds out what just happened, he will mate you here and now.” My heart lurches as Talon cups my cheeks with his warm palms. Ryker appears beside me, his scent more smoke than vanilla. “I’ll kill him before I let him bite you.” His promise steadies me; they all do. It’s enough to give me a second to recalibrate and fucking think. I nod, heaving in a heavy breath. “Okay?” Talon confirms. “Okay, okay.” I’m breathless, but Talon kisses the top of my head regardless. He pulls me, allowing us to weave through the destroyed cafeteria as eyes either look at me intently or avoid me altogether. I’ve become the monster they all wanted me to be. The second Talon and I are out of the hall, we take

Chapter: Chapter 170: OliviaI explode. Magic flows out of my fingers, my eyes, my hair, my mouth as I scream. Everywhere is gold. I am gold. I don’t know how to stop or if I even can; all I know is that I’m magic and magic is me. “Olivia!” A warbled yell tries to break through to me, but as much as I try to reach it, I can’t. People around me fall to their knees, not speaking or moving. I can’t raise my head to stare at them because of the force of magic that’s weighing me down. I think I’m going to be crushed by my own power. “Olivia!” A voice calls again; deeper this time, more commanding. Axel. With all my might, I snap my head up and watch him blaze a path toward me. He’s lit up like a torch. His usually silver eyes bore into mine with as much gold as there is in the cafeteria. He falls to his knees in front of me, shouting, “Olivia, let go!” I can’t. Even if I wanted to, I can’t. Is this what I really am? What Nester wants to snatch and take as his own? Suddenly, my hand sears

Chapter: Chapter 169: OliviaI feel like I’ve been whipped. The boy’s spiteful eyes remain fixed on me. If this were any other day, any other situation, I would say he has pretty eyes: brown and rimmed green. But as they look at me, I feel electrified in the worst way possible. Axel leans over my shoulder, harsh words spilling out of his mouth, “The fuck did you just say to her?” Every eye in the hall is on us as the boy stands his ground, “You heard me, Parker.” Axel growls, a warning sound. “If I were you, boy, I would walk away.” If I were him, I’d walk away too. He must be less than half Axel’s height, and his scrawny build is enough to know who would win in a physical fight between the two. But the boy stands tall (as tall as he can be), holding the lapels of his blazer with pride. “If anyone is walking away, it’s the five of you,” he goes on confidently. “I used to look up to the CrestRidge pack; everyone did. But it’s clear frolicking with the human has messed you all up.” He leans closer, and a v

Chapter: Chapter 168: OliviaI make my way to the lunch hall as if nothing happened. But inside, my heart is pounding a million miles per second Nester has a way of getting in my head, that much is clear, but I know escaping him wouldn’t be as easy this time as it was before. Students dodge me as I pass by. Clearly, the idea that I murdered my dad is enough to make me public enemy number 1. Anger I’ve been struggling to keep down urges me to lunge at them and really give one of them something to be fucking afraid of. But I shake it off, walking faster. Something in me pulls me to that lunch room, and I just know when I get there I’ll find the four people left on earth capable of making me feel normal. Sure enough, as I burst through the lunch hall doors, the chatter stops, all eyes turn to me, but I immediately lock on my CrestRidge boys. My heart calms a little. They look at me with the same worry I feel, and I have no doubt that Nester has gotten to them as well. Ignoring the rest of the student bo
