Falling For My Ex-husband's Trillionaire Brother
Before Skylar could even tell her husband she was pregnant, her marriage ended in betrayal.
In one night, she lost everything she thought she had. A husband, a family, and the fragile future she was holding onto. Skylar Blackwood had once believed sacrifice was love. To save her father from prison, she agreed to marry into the powerful Blackwood family, giving up her final year of college and reshaping her entire life around a man who never truly loved her.
Instead, she was discarded, humiliated, and broken in the very moment she needed him most.
Then came the man she was never meant to meet.
A ruthless billionaire known as the black sheep of the Blackwood family. He was feared, untouchable, and far more dangerous than the man she once called husband. He does not believe in mercy, nor in saving people. Yet somehow, Skylar becomes an exception he cannot ignore.
And just when Skylar thinks she has finally escaped her past, her ex-husband returns, this time with regret in his eyes and greed behind his intentions, as he realizes the woman he discarded now belongs to a world he can never afford.
Because her new husband doesn’t just protect her.
He owns empires, controls wealth beyond imagination and gives her everything the man who once humiliated her could never reach.
When betrayal burns everything to the ground, a dangerous obsession rises from the ashes, and two powerful brothers collide over a woman who refuses to be broken again.

Chapter: Chapter 6:Skylar The corner of his mouth lifted slightly.“Careful, Skylar, you just agreed without knowing what you’re really signing up for.”He held my gaze for another long second, then straightened his suit jacket.“A member of the staff will be here shortly to prepare you.”I frowned. “P-prepare me?”He was already walking toward the door. “You'll understand soon enough.”Before I could stop him or demand an explanation, the door clicked shut behind him.Silence swallowed the room. I stared at the closed door, half expecting him to come back and admit this had all been some elaborate joke.But he didn’t.I let out a slow, shaky breath and rubbed my temples, trying to ease the pounding in my head.Barely a minute later, three soft knocks sounded against the door.“Come in,” I called, my voice hesitant.The door opened to reveal a young woman who looked to be in her early twenties. She wore a neatly pressed black uniform with crisp white accents, her dark hair pulled into a sleek ponytail.

Chapter: Chapter 5:Skylar I stared at the man standing at the foot of the bed. Everything about him screamed danger. Expensive danger. There was something about the way he filled the space that made the room feel smaller than it actually was. He was a Blackwood. The realization sent a fresh wave of ice through my veins. Yet something about him felt different from the ones I had known. He seemed colder, far more dangerous. “You crashed into my car,” he said, his deep voice sweeping through the quiet room. My throat tightened. “It was an accident. I’m sorry, I—” “Accidents still carry a price.” His dark eyes held mine without mercy. “Twenty-five thousand dollars.” The number hit me like a punch to the gut. I had nothing left. No savings, no home, no future. Alex had made sure of that, stripping me bare before tossing me aside like yesterday’s trash. “I-I don’t have that kind of money,” I whispered, my voice barely staying steady. He didn’t look surprised. He leaned closer, his presence filling th

Chapter: Chapter 4:Skylar When my eyes fluttered open again, I let out a soft groan. I blinked slowly, trying to adjust to the dim lighting. The first thing I noticed was how unnaturally quiet the room was. No beeping machines, no rushed footsteps echoing down hallways, no sterile hospital smell. Instead, a rich and expensive scent lingered heavily in the air, polished wood mixed with something faintly cold and masculine, like expensive cologne layered over rain. My brows pulled together in confusion. This wasn’t the hospital. But it wasn’t my home either. I swallowed hard and forced myself to sit up slightly. That was when I realized I was wearing a soft silk robe that definitely wasn’t mine. My eyes widened. I looked around the room properly now. It was huge, luxurious in a way that felt almost suffocating. Soft lighting, dark elegant furniture, thick clean sheets that probably cost more than everything I owned. My heart started beating faster. Where was I? Just then, the door clicked open w

Chapter: Chapter 3: Skylar The lights were too bright. I squeezed my eyes shut the moment I opened them, but the sterile white glow burned through my eyelids anyway. A dull, steady ache pulsed behind my forehead. The sharp scent of antiseptic filled my nose with every breath. Hospital. The realization came slowly, like my mind was moving through thick fog. I tried to sit up, but the room tilted violently. A soft groan slipped from my lips. “Don’t move too quickly,” a gentle voice said. A nurse stood beside the bed, her expression careful and kind. An IV line tugged at the back of my hand. “What… happened?” I rasped, my throat painfully dry. “You were in a car accident. Mr. Blackwood brought you in. You’re stable now, but you need rest.” Mr. Blackwood. Alex? My fingers instinctively drifted to my stomach. A strange, heavy dread settled there. “Is my baby okay?” I whispered. The nurse went still. The silence stretched. “I’m sorry,” she said quietly. “The accident… W-we couldn’t save the preg

Chapter: Chapter 2:Skylar My mind rejected the image before my eyes could fully accept it. No. That wasn’t real. It couldn’t be. I shook my head slowly, one hand pressed against the car for support as the ground seemed to tilt beneath me. My breathing came shallow and ragged, each inhale burning in my throat. My heart pounded. Not Kate. Not the cousin who had hugged me just minutes ago inside the hall, laughing like we were still the girls who used to share secrets during family gatherings. The door clicked open. Alex stepped out, shirt hastily buttoned, hair disheveled. His eyes widened when they landed on me. “Skylar—” He muttered a curse under his breath and quickly shut the door behind him, as if that could erase what I had already seen. I couldn’t speak. My chest felt too tight, like something was crushing it from the inside. Tears stung my eyes, hot. “What are you doing out here?” he asked, voice edged with irritation as he adjusted his collar. The question was so absurd it almost made

Chapter: Chapter 1:Skylar The day I found out I was pregnant should have been one of the happiest days of my life. Instead, it became the beginning of the end of my marriage. I stood in front of the full-length mirror, turning slightly as the deep red dress hugged my body. It was elegant: sleeveless, with a soft flow at the hem that made me feel beautiful, confident, even a little bold. For once, I wanted to feel like the woman Alex had fallen in love with. “Alex?” I called softly. “Can you help me with the zipper?” He looked up from his phone, eyes flicking over me. For a brief second, the familiar warmth returned, the same look he used to give me when we were still new and hungry for each other. He set the phone down and walked over. His hands brushed my back as he slowly pulled the zipper up. Then he stopped. I watched his reflection. His jaw tightened. “You can’t wear this tonight, Skylar.” My stomach dipped. “Why not?” “It’s too much.” His voice was calm, but firm. “Too revealing. The way

Chapter: Chapter 44: I love you A few months passed after that.It had been heartbreaking for Maya but she forced herself to move on. She reminded herself again and again that she wasn’t a child anymore. She didn’t need answers that came too late. What she needed, she already had. Ethan. He took care of her in ways she didn’t even know she needed. He bought her gifts just to see her smile. He stayed with her when she cried, letting her wipe her tears and sometimes her snot on his expensive shirts without complaint. He held her through the nightmares, rubbed her back when she felt sick, and reminded her every single day that she wasn’t alone. He was her backbone. Her safe place.And much faster than she expected, she began to heal.Today, Ethan had gone to work.She didn’t know if it was the pregnancy mood swings or if she had simply grown too attached to her husband, but the moment he left, an emptiness settled in her chest. She felt restless. All she wanted was for him to be beside her, cuddling her in bed, patti

Chapter: Chapter 43: Rightful Heiress Rosaline swallowed hard, her voice trembling as she continued.“Yes… Mrs. Sterling is your mother,” she said.Maya shook her head violently, tears blurring her vision. “How?” she asked, her voice breaking. “How is that even possible?”Rosaline took a shaky breath. “Listen, Maya. Mrs. Sterling and I were best friends when we were young. We were inseparable. We struggled together, laughed together, dreamed together.” She laughed bitterly. “But then everything changed.”Everyone in the room was silent.“Mr. Sterling fell in love with her,” Rosaline continued. “He was rich, well-connected, powerful. Overnight, her life changed. She wore fine clothes, expensive shoes, lived in comfort. And I…” Her voice cracked. “I was still struggling with a leaking roof, empty cupboards. Nothing.”Maya felt Ethan’s hand tighten around hers.“I became jealous,” Rosaline whispered. “Jealous to the point that it poisoned me. Then… I got pregnant. I don’t even know who the father was. And fate made it worse.

Chapter: Chapter 42: In an instant Ethan was beyond shocked as he just stared at Maya’s face. The artist he had spent years admiring was no other than his wife. His mouth opened, but no words came out. He was beyond speechless. He was… stupefied.“Maya?” he finally whispered. “How?”Maya walked closer to him. “Well… it’s me. I’m M-Talento.”Ethan eased himself into a chair, still staring at her like she wasn't real. “How? Why didn’t you tell me? And why did you always cover your face?”Maya stepped closer. “Let me explain.”Ethan ran a hand through his hair. He didn’t know what to feel, whether to be upset that his wife had kept something so huge from him when she knew how much he admired M-Talento, or to simply stand in awe of how incredibly talented she was.“Maya, I don’t understand,” he said quietly. “What I know is that you grew up as a simple girl in the countryside. How are you a world-renowned artist who has earned billions?”Maya took a breath. “I was trained by an artist when I was fourteen. He taught me ever

Chapter: Chapter 41: M-Talento Screams filled the ballroom.People stood frozen in shock, hearts racing, eyes wide as they stared at Ethan who was standing on his feet, holding Maya tightly in his arms. Glass and crystal littered the floor around them.Xander, who had been standing nearby, ran a hand over his forehead, completely thrown off by the sequence of events.Silence fell for a brief second before a woman finally found her voice.“Mr. Ashford… you can walk?”Another man stepped forward, disbelief evident on his face. “You can walk? We're you just able to do it now, because of adrenaline?”Murmurs spread rapidly. “He can actually walk.” “I thought he was crippled.” “Was he pretending all along?”Phones were raised as people began to take pictures.Ethan’s jaw clenched. “Enough!” he yelled. “This is not about whether I can walk or not.”He tightened his hold on Maya, feeling how fast her heart was beating, and her fingers clutched at his neck.“I need an explanation,” he continued coldly, his eyes scanning th

Chapter: Chapter 40: 6th year anniversary It was the day of Ethan's company's 6th year anniversary, and a party was being held at a 5-star hotel, just for it. Sophia finished the last touches on Maya’s hair, stepping back to admire her work. Maya looked at her reflection again, she looked really pretty. She placed a hand lightly to her stomach, feeling nervous.“You’ll be fine,” Sophia said gently. “Mr. Ashford…” she smiled knowingly, “he won’t take his eyes off you.”Maya let out a small laugh, nodding. “I just hope everything goes smoothly.”“It will,” Sophia assured her.Meanwhile, still in the mansion, Nelly paced the bedroom. Her fingers were clenched at her sides.“Mom, is everything set?” she asked again.“Yes,” Mrs. Sterling replied calmly, lifting her glass and taking a slow sip. “I just spoke with him. He’s getting it done.”Nelly’s lips curled into a satisfied smile. “Good. Tonight has to be perfect.”Mrs. Sterling glanced at her daughter. “Remember, patience.

Chapter: Chapter 39: A new beginning “Maya… Maya…” Ethan murmured, panic rising in his chest as he held her in his arms and gently laid her down on the bed. Her eyelids fluttered, half-conscious, her belly heaving slightly as she struggled to open her eyes.“Hey… what’s wrong?” he asked, voice filled with worry.“I… I just feel… dizzy,” she whispered, her voice barely audible.“Are you okay? Wait, I’ll call the doctor right now,” Ethan said, fumbling for his phone.“Ethan…” Maya’s voice was so weak it barely came out.Ethan rushed, his heart hammering. He lifted the phone, his fingers trembling slightly. “Hello? Yes… yes, I want you here right now. Right now.” He ended the call and raced back to her side. “The doctor is on the way, okay? You’re going to be fine.”“I… I feel better now…” Maya murmured, her eyes half-closed.“No!” Ethan exclaimed. “You literally almost fainted. You were dizzy! The doctor has to come and check on you.”Maya didn’t argue. She barely had the strength, her body too weak to resist. Ethan stayed
