BOUND BY BETRAYAL, MARRIED TO THE COLD CEO
SYNOPSIS.
Mylar’s life changed the day she lost her mother. After her father remarried, the once loved daughter became nothing more than a burden in her own home.
Pregnant and desperate to hold onto the future she was promised, Mylar runs to the man she loves—only to catch him with another woman. Heartbroken, she flees and nearly gets hit by a car owned by the last man she would ever want in her life: Zayn Delle. Cold, wealthy, and impossible to please.
Trying to start over, Mylar leaves for the neighboring city and takes a job in a powerful company, only to discover Zayn is her new boss. When family pressure forces him to find a wife, Zayn offers her a contract marriage that could solve both their problems.
But living as husband and wife soon becomes more complicated than either of them expected. With jealous rivals, family secrets, hidden truths, and a past that refuses to stay buried, Mylar is drawn deeper into a world she never belonged to—and into the arms of a man she was never meant to love.
When betrayal returns in the most shocking way, Mylar must decide if love is worth risking everything for.

Chapter: DENIED AND DISCARDED“Marco, meet my friend, Mylar,” Suzy said, gesturing her hand toward me.I froze. My bag slipped from my fingers and dropped to the floor with a hard thud.Suzy looked at me, then at the bag, her brows furrowed in confusion. Marco said nothing. He just stood there staring back at me like he’d seen something impossible.He never expected this.Neither did I.But slowly, everything started making sense.“Marco?” I stammered, taking a slow step forward.“Wait… what’s going on here?” Suzy asked sharply. “You know him?”“Remember when I told you about my boyfriend… the one I called for help and he ditched me?” I said, my voice trembling.“Yes… so?”“He’s the one.” I pointed at him. “The boyfriend. And the father of my unborn baby.”Suzy turned to him so fast. “What? Marco?”“That’s not true, babe,” he said immediately. “I have never seen this woman before. How could you even believe that?”A bitter laugh almost escaped me.“You’ve never met me?” I said, stepping closer, brushing past Suzy

Chapter: THE SAFE PLACE WAS A LIEI was trapped in my own head, feeling lost and shattered.But that didn’t mean I was going to break. Marco might have let me down, but I refused to let him ruin me too. I had to find a way out, no matter how ugly it got.The sky above looked swollen with rain, thick clouds pressing low like they were waiting to burst. I let out a long breath, hard enough for loose strands of hair to blow across my face.I raked my hair rough and looked around the unfamiliar street, trying to think straight. That was when I remembered it.The necklace.Marco bought it for me on our first date. Real diamonds, expensive enough to make anyone stare twice. Even now, tucked away in my bag, it still carried the weight of that night—his smile, the way he clasped it around my neck, how stupidly loved I had felt.My chest tightened.It was the last thing I wanted to part with. But memories could not feed me, and love sure as hell could not shelter me. If I wanted to survive, something had to go.I opened my bag

Chapter: HE HUNG UP ON MEI sat in the car, trying not to admit what I had just done—left my home… for people who didn’t even feel like family anymore. But there was no point pretending. I already did it.We were halfway gone when a car sped past us.My heart skipped. That was Dad’s car.“Sir! Please turn back—catch up with that car,” I said quickly, twisting in my seat to look behind us, hoping it hadn’t gone too far.“Why would I do that, ma’am? I can’t,” the driver replied, his tone firm, almost rehearsed. “The mistress ordered me to drop you at the city’s main bus stop. I’m not to turn back.”Of course.Aunt Juli and Natalie had planned this well. They wanted me gone, properly gone. No room to come back, no chance to explain.I leaned back slowly, my chest tightening. It was too late now. Going back wasn’t even an option anymore. And the worst part? I didn’t even know where I was going. I barely had money on me.How had I never pushed harder to know where Marco lived?People always said I was too nonchalan

Chapter: THROWN OUT AT DAWNIt was already morning. The thick clouds from last night had cleared, leaving the sky bright and clean... almost too peaceful.I stretched slowly, feeling the stiffness leave my body bit by bit. A soft warmth settled inside me, not enough to make me whole, but enough to make me smile anyway. My hand drifted to my stomach. For a second, I felt the tiniest flutter, like the little life inside me could somehow feel my mood.Then a loud bang shook my door.“Open up!”I sighed. Aunt Juli.“I’m coming, just a minute,” I called, dragging myself off the bed.I opened the door and found her standing there, dressed neatly as always, face cold enough to freeze water. She looked past me into the room like even breathing near me annoyed her.“Good morning, Aunt Juli,” I said, still half yawning.She ignored it. “Get dressed. You’re leaving this morning.”Then she turned to walk away.For a second, I just stood there blinking.Was she serious?“Wait... what?” I hurried after her. “I know I said I’d

Chapter: I LET THEM THINK THEY WONThe clouds outside were thick and dark, swallowing every trace of light, and somehow the sitting room felt the same—tight, heavy, hard to breathe in.Dad and Aunt Juli stood in front of me like I had committed some unforgivable crime, like I no longer belonged under that roof.And Natalie... she stayed near the corner, quiet and polished, wearing that innocent face she always used when people were watching. Head lowered, lips soft. But I saw it—the tiny twitch at the edge of her mouth. That hidden smirk.She was enjoying every second of this.“Do you even have any shame?” Dad barked, dragging both hands through his hair. “For this family? For yourself?”“Dad, I’m sorry... I didn’t mean for it to happen. It was an accident—”The lie came out smoothly. Too smoothly.Because I knew exactly what I was doing.And I didn’t regret it.“Shut up, you useless girl!”The slap came fast and sharp. My head jerked sideways, stars flashing across my eyes. Heat exploded across my cheek. I didn’t need
