A GAME OF LIES
It started with one scandalous kiss caught on camera.
She expected damage control not to be declared the girlfriend of the billionaire who ruined her life.
He’s cold, calculating, and her ex’s powerful cousin.
They agree to fake it for four months for money, for revenge, for survival.
She became the fake girlfriend of the billionaire who ruined her life.
He’s ruthless. She’s vengeful. Four months. One deal. No feeling
But soon, the lies cut deep… and neither of them can tell if the obsession is still pretend.
Amira Santis, a sharp-tongued investigative journalist, ruins billionaire Montez De Vitalio’s company with one exposé. In return, he blacklists her. Her career is over. But after an odd encounter when photos of Montez sharing a kiss with her in a hotel gets out, he has no option but to announce her as his lover to the public.
Now with them both in a compromising situation, Amira takes his offer to pretend to be his girlfriend in the eyes of the public for a period of four months in exchange that he pays her and gets back at her cheating ex, who also happened to be his cousin but Amira is not the same girl he once destroyed. She has secrets of her own. And Montez? He didn’t plan on falling for the one woman who swore to ruin him.
Their lies ignite an obsession neither can control, and soon, love and war become indistinguishable.

Chapter: CHAPTER 7- BURY YOU ALIVE Amira couldn’t tell for how long she had been unconscious, but the next time her eyelids flew open, she realized, much to her surprise, that instead of waking up in a cold, dark, stinking cell where most kidnappers kept their victims, she was lying back in the soft leather seat of an… airplane? As she tried to grasp her head around the situation, the door opened and in walked the devilish tycoon holding a bottle of water. He had his black sleeves rolled to his elbows, giving a good glance of his tattoos inked into both arms and all the way up his neck. Her eyes narrowed in rage. She should have known it was him. Montez De Vitalio. All six foot seven of him. Only he would pull such a stunt as this. “What’s the heck is going on?” she growled, pushing the soft mattress away from her. An action she instantly regretted. That fabric was pretty comfortable. “Why have you kidnapped me?” “Kidnap you? Now, don’t be delusional.” A

Chapter: CHAPTER 6- TAKEN BY DANGER “Do we have a deal, Miss Santis?” The offer caused an awful ringing in Amira’s ears. This man must be so full of himself he’d lost his damn mind! “Wh-what are you saying?” she squeaked loudly, taking an unconscious step back in horror. “Let’s not act like kids here. It’s really simple.” He crossed both arms, pinning his gaze on her distraught-looking face. “You call that simple?” “It is, unless you choose to make a fuss. Just four months.” He shrugged. “All the time we need to convince the world that I didn’t take advantage of you and you weren’t some cheap slut that very night. You move in with me, pretend to be my girlfriend and after four months we pretend a break up.” “I’m not a slut!” Her fists clenched, fuming. How dare he use such a term with her? “You did kiss me after all,” he said, ever so smoothly. “You trapped me, you scum!” “Seemed to me l

Chapter: CHAPTER 5- BRANDED HIS LOVER “Miss Santis! Miss Santis! Just a statement please!” The sound of Amira’s name being screamed nonstop from her front porch had become a sick alarm clock. “What the hell is going on?” she muttered under her breath. She took out her phone, scrolling through the media for any latest information. Her stomach twisted as a picture of them surfaced. His hand grasped onto her hair as his lips crushed hungrily against hers in that dimly lit VIP suite at the hotel. That damned night. She had been doing her rounds as usual. Changing the suites’ linens. She had no idea the occupant of the VIP suite had returned but it was already too late. The bathroom door came open and there he was. The one man she hated to death. Montez De Vitalio. Half-naked, dripping, and barefooted. Along with that goddamned arrogance that still clung to him like an expensive cologne even though he was drunk. She could still r

Chapter: CHAPTER 4- MY WOMAN By the next morning, the events of the previous night were already forgotten. He didn’t even spare the moment a second’s thought. To him, it was a mistake that never happened. Enzo had arrived to inform him that the car was waiting to take them to the airport so they could return in time for the press conference the next day. “Is something wrong, Montez?” Enzo addressed him informally as they both got settled into the backseat of the car. Aside from being his PA, Enzo was a friend Montez could trust. But Montez’s mind kept slipping back to last night. The way he had claimed her lips with such reckless abandon. Screw it! He felt like beating himself to a pulp. Might just hire someone to do the damn job for him. Why couldn’t it be someone else? Anyone but her! “Nothing,” he responded, uncurling his fisted hands as he tried to relax, but his furrowed brows gave him away all the same. “You don’t look o

Chapter: CHAPTER 3- JUST ONE KISS “Those fucking bastards!” Montez De Vitalio spat through gritted teeth, slamming the door behind him with a force that echoed like a slap. Enzo Ricci, his PA and long-time friend, hastened his steps to keep up with him. Montez’s jaw flexed, hand curling into fists. The sharp click of his custom Italian shoes reverberated across the marble floor as he sprinted toward the valet. Fury rolled off his shoulders in waves. Three deals rejected! In the space of one goddamn week and all because of her. Every investor he spoke with had opted out of their business dealings, citing his recent involvement in court with that pesky little journalist. It was infuriating. Outside, his bodyguard held the door to the backseat open, and Montez slid into the black Lamborghini Aventador, the leather interior welcoming him like a lover who demanded no explanations. Enzo joined him a moment later, clicking his seatbelt ever cautiously, as alw

Chapter: CHAPTER 2- A FALL FROM GRACE Eyes wide in shock, Amira stared at the grotesque scene unfolding before her. Bianca whimpered and buried her face in the pillow like her shame mattered now, but Nathan? That son of a bitch didn’t stop. He looked at Amira while still fucking her best friend, annoyed rather than shocked. “NATHAN!” Amira choked out, her voice cracking as she clutched painfully at her purse. That was when he finally pulled out of Bianca and stood like she was the one interrupting his evening, leaving his shaft dangling like the pendulum on Big Ben. “What the fuck are you doing here, Amira?” he snapped, grabbing a towel and wrapping it around his waist. “I—what? You told me to come home,” she whispered, mascara already mixing with her tears. He scoffed. “Too bad you got the message early. Now leave.” She blinked, taking a shaky step back as Bianca smirked in triumph. “Leave?” Her heart cracked open. How
