Chapter: MY WOMAN MYRA'S POVThe next evening, a private courier arrived at our suite carrying two large garment bags along with a velvet box. I received the package and thanked the courier before shutting the door. Jade had left an hour ago, saying he had some private matters to handle.I took the bags to the bedroom and opened them to find a stunning red silk dress with delicate pearls around the sleeves and a pair of matching strappy heels. Inside the velvet box lay a diamond pendant necklace and matching earrings. A small smile tugged at the corner of my lips. Jade remembered that red was my favorite color.I set the gown aside and went to do my makeup, having already gotten my hair styled at the salon earlier in the day. By seven o'clock, I stood in front of the full-length mirror, adjusting the delicate straps of the dress. The rich red shade made my skin glow, and the tailor-made fit hugged every curve perfectly without feeling restrictive at all.I swept my hair up into a soft, elegant up

Chapter: MY MANMYRA'S P. O. V"Mr. Dantrix has a very thorough presentation prepared for you today,” Brandon added smoothly from beside us.“I’m sure he does,” Vance murmured, his eyes lingering on my face before he gestured toward the seating area. “Please, take a seat.”Throughout the first hour of the briefing, Jade was in total command of the room. He spoke with absolute authority, breaking down complex drone-jamming algorithms and armored prototype specs with effortless brilliance. The officers leaned forward, completely captivated. Even I was impressed, unable to hold back a small smile whenever his gaze swept in my direction.'That was my man right there.'Yet every time Jade turned toward the projection screen, I could feel Colonel Vance’s eyes tracking me. When I reached out to make a note on my tablet, Vance leaned slightly closer across the table.“So, Myra,” Vance interrupted smoothly during a brief pause in Jade’s speech, resting his forearms on the glass table. “Does working for a m

Chapter: ACCEPTING USMYRA'S POVWhen my eyes opened the next morning, the soft sunlight was filtering through the slightly drawn curtains of the suite. I tried to move, but I was pinned in place. It took me a second to realize why, Jade's arm was wrapped securely around my waist, his broad chest pressed firmly against my back. The quiet, steady rise and fall of his breathing brushed warm air against the nape of my neck. I swallowed softly, my heart fluttering as I lay there frozen. I didn't want any sudden movement to wake him because, frankly, I was enjoying the warmth of his skin pressed against mine. It had been a long time since I had craved a man's touch this much.Jade suddenly shifted behind me, his arm tightening around my waist for a brief second before his breathing changed. Slowly, his hand eased off my hip. I let out a soft yawn.“Morning, Myra,” he mumbled, his deep morning voice sending a slight shiver down my spine.“Good morning,” I replied, quickly turning around to face him while pull

Chapter: ONE BED MYRA'S P.O.VAs though realizing that I was a bit uncomfortable, Jade cleared his throat loudly. “I'll... take the rest of my calls out in the living area to give you space.”He turned quickly and walked through the wide archway, leaving me alone in the bedroom.I dried my body off properly, applied my lotion, changed into a pair of comfortable cotton pajamas, and crawled onto the massive king-sized bed. The moment my head hit the soft pillows, I drifted straight into a deep, dreamless sleep.When my eyes fluttered open, the room was almost black save for the soft city lights filtering through the curtains and the side lanp. I sat up slowly, feeling a bit disoriented. Checking the small clock on the bedside drawer, I realized hours had passed it was nearly nine in the evening.Crap. I really over slept.I swung my legs over the side of the bed, smoothed down my clothes, and padded barefoot into the open living area.Jade was sitting at the sleek glass desk, the blue glow of a lapt

Chapter: MOTION SICKNESS MYRA'S POVI had my things packed and ready for our trip. By 8:00, Jade sent a driver to come pick me up from my place and took me straight to the airport, where he already was with Brandon.The thought of getting on that plane was already giving me a serious headache. Literally five hours of torture waiting for me was I got on board.Shortly after my arrival, we boarded his private jet. The smooth leather seats and spacious cabin were luxurious, but no amount of luxury could save me from my hatred of flying. An hour into our cross-country flight to Washington, D.C., my stomach violently turned, a wave of severe dizziness hitting me like a freight train.“Myra? You look pale,” Jade noted, his voice laced with concern as he set his tablet aside.“I'm fine,” I managed to choke out, clutching the armrests until my knuckles turned white. “I just... I need a second.”I scrambled out of my seat and hurried down the narrow aisle to the lavatory, locking the door just in time to empty the

Chapter: THE MEETING PT 3JADE'S POVThe heavy-set man immediately stepped forward with a sleek aluminum briefcase in his right hand. He looked far more like a hired bodyguard than an ordinary assistant, and without saying a single word, he placed the briefcase onto the center of the table and unlatched the locks.Vincent reached inside, pulled out a thick folder, and slid it directly across the white tablecloth toward me.“I'm looking to move out a large shipment by next week,” he said, steepling his fingers in front of his chest.I picked up the folder, opened the front flap, and let my eyes move over the long list of goods typed inside. There were several types of heavy firearms and military-style weapons explicitly listed, including C7 rifles and other high-caliber armaments that were clearly not intended for ordinary civilian use.I slowly closed the file halfway, keeping my thumb resting inside the crease, and looked straight across at him.“I always thought you were primarily involved in importing,” I

Trapped By Desire: Falling For A Heartless Billionaire
He was her only escape… or so she thought.
[{EXCERPT}]
"MARRY ME!" Alana shouted just as he reached the door.
Roman stopped mid-step.
Slowly, he turned, amusement flickering in his cold eyes before a low, cruel laugh slipped past his lips.
“Seems you’ve finally lost all sense,” he said when the laughter faded.
He stepped closer, his towering frame swallowing the space between them as she tilted her head to meet his gaze.
“What makes you think you can make such a bold request, Alana?” he murmured, his cold fingers brushing against her lips.
A shiver ran through her, stealing her voice for a moment. Then she straightened, her fists tightening at her sides.
“Because I’ll be the best wife you could possibly ask for,” she said, forcing confidence into her tone as a small smile curved her lips.
Roman tilted his head, a dark smirk forming.
“Is that so?” he whispered, his hand slipping beneath her dress as she gasped.

Chapter: HUNTING THE SILENCER"...earlier today, high-profile defendant Stephanie Gates was fatally struck by a single gunshot wound outside the Manhattan Federal Courthouse," the news anchor announced from the wall-mounted flat screen. "Authorities have confirmed the victim died instantly on the scene..."Roman picked up the remote from the coffee table and clicked the red button, muting the screen instantly.The penthouse living room was heavy with silence. Ryan sat on the leather sofa opposite him, running a hand through his hair with a heavy sigh. Nearby, Erin stood by the window, a thick manila folder tucked beneath his arm."Shit," Ryan muttered, shaking his head as he looked up at Roman. "I still can't believe she's dead. Just like that. How is Alana holding up?""She's finally asleep," Roman replied, his voice low and devoid of warmth. "I had my doctor come over an hour ago and administered a mild sedative. Her nerves were completely shot."Roman turned his cold gaze toward his assistant. "Erin. What do

Chapter: BLOOD ON THE STEPSAlana sat in the back of the SUV, her hands trembling violently as broken sobs and whimpers tore through her throat. Everything her mother had just revealed, including the arranged kidnapping, the suppressed memories, and what Roy had done to her, hit her all at once like a heavy, crushing weight, making her feel like she needed to throw up and just vanish all at once"I feel so filthy right now," Alana sobbed, burying her face into Roman's chest, her heavy tears soaking straight through the fabric of his dark shirt. "Really , really filthy, Roman."Roman's knuckles turned white as his fists clenched so tightly his muscles strained. A profound, nauseating disgust churned in his gut at the thought of Roy. The urge to destroy the man tore through his chest, but he kept his voice steady as he held his wife securely in his arms."Listen to me, Alana," Roman murmured, pressing his lips firmly against her hair. "You are not filthy. You didn't do anything wrong. The only filthy creature he

Chapter: IT WASN'T A NIGHTMAREAlana rolled her eyes at her mother's weak display of affection. Without saying a word, she pulled out one of the metal chairs. The heavy iron legs scraped harshly against the concrete floor as she sat down."How have you been doing?" Stephanie asked, her voice raspy as she took the seat opposite her.Alana met her gaze, her expression completely flat. "Fine. Better than I’ve ever been, actually."Stephanie winced at the sharp tone, lowering her eyes for a brief second before looking back up. "I know what you think of me, Alana. I know you think I'm a terrible human being. But I'm not. A terrible mother? Yes. I know how I treated you, and I won't pretend I was good to you. But I am not a monster. I’ve always loved you, in my own way.""What did you actually call me here for, Stephanie?" Alana interrupted, her voice devoid of any warmth. "I didn't come to listen to your sudden change of heart."Stephanie let out a long, shuddering sigh, rubbing her knuckles together. "I cut a deal with

Chapter: PERSUASIVEAlana tilted her head back against the cold tile, her eyes fluttering shut as his thumb maintained its relentless pace."Not a chance," she gasped, her hands coming up to grip his broad shoulders as her knees weakened.Without warning, Roman slid his index and middle fingers deep inside her. Alana let out a soft breath, her inner walls instantly gripping his hand. He began a slow, rhythmic pump, sliding deep into her tight heat while his thumb kept up a steady pressure against her clit."Think about it, Alana," Roman coaxed, nudging her legs wider apart with his thigh to give himself a better angle. "Stephanie is running out of time. She knows how this trail is going to turn out and it's not going to work in her favour.""Roman, stop," Alana groaned, her throat arched back as the coils in her stomach pulled tight. "I don't... I don't want to sit there and listen to her beg or make excuses.""It's not about her excuses," Roman whispered, curling his fingers internally against her sweet

Chapter: THIS DETERMINEDCHAPTER 120 : THIS DETERMINED That same night, Roman had their bags packed and ready as they boarded their private flight back to New York. During the flight, Alana could not stop worrying about Gage. She could only hope he was okay. If it were not for him, she would probably be dead by now. He had risked his life to save her, and the thought of something happening to him because of her made her chest tighten painfully. Her fingers clenched together as she sat beside Roman, guilt eating at her from the inside. She would never be able to forgive herself if anything happened to him. It had been her idea to go out and get something to eat. If she had never suggested it, maybe Gage would not be in the hospital right now, hurt. By the time they arrived at the penthouse, exhaustion had settled heavily over her. The moment the elevator doors opened, Alana stepped out and headed straight toward the bedroom. All she wanted was to sleep. Roman noticed how sullen his wife was, but he did

Chapter: HIT AND RUNThe vehicle didn't slow down for a second; it swerved violently around the curb, hit the gas, and sped off into the dark city streets."Gage!" Alana screamed, scrambling up from the pavement, her knees scraped and bleeding.Carl was already sprinting across the asphalt, dropping to his knees beside Gage's motionless body. "Gage! Stay down, don't move!"Gage let out a ragged, painful groan, his face pale as he clutched at his right ribs. "Damn it... that hurt...""Shut up," Carl barked, his voice cracking with a sudden, raw panic that completely stripped away all his usual chill composure. His hands hovered over Gage's shoulder, trembling slightly as he checked for heavy bleeding. "Just stay still. Don't you dare try to move."Carl whipped out his phone with his left hand, his fingers flying across the screen as he dialed 911. "There's been a hit and run on 4th and Elm! And there's someone hurt. Send an ambulance right now!""Carl..." Gage gritted out, a weak, tight grin attempting to
