The Billionaire's Hidden Baby
One secret contract. Two rival brothers. A truth that could destroy them all.
By day, I am Jade Sinclair: the flawless, untouchable Chief Secretary to billionaire CEO Lucian Ashford. By night, I am bound to his bed by a ruthless compliance contract—the only thing keeping my sick mother alive.
But the rules of our forbidden game just shattered. I’m pregnant.
With Lucian’s powerful family forcing him into a political marriage, his dangerous, unpredictable twin brother, Sebastian, offers me a deadly way out. Cornered, I accept his hand, only to uncover a devastating truth: the Ashford family didn't rescue me years ago—they orchestrated my father's murder.
When Lucian violently crashes my wedding to reclaim me, my desperate escape ends in a nightmare. Now, trapped in a high-stakes war between twin titans and imprisoned on a remote island, I am no longer just fighting for my survival. I am fighting for my unborn child.
To clear my father's name and tear down a corrupt empire, will I have to destroy the only man I've ever loved?

Chapter: Chapter 5: The Serpent in the GardenThe heavy oak door of the CEO suite clicked shut, but it did nothing to muffle theroar of blood in Jade’s ears. She stood with her back to the wood, her tablet pressedagainst her chest as if it could shield the life growing inside her. Outside, the silenceof the executive floor had been replaced by a palpable, vibrating tension between thetwo brothers.Lucian didn’t look at her. He strode toward his desk, his movements jerky, his handstrembling with a rage he couldn’t quite contain. He threw himself into his leather chairand stared at the door she had just walked through.“He touched you,” Lucian whispered, his voice dangerously low.“He’s your brother, Lucian,” Jade replied, her voice shaky. “He was just”“He was hunting,” Lucian snapped, finally meeting her eyes. His obsidian gaze waswild, stripped of its usual corporate coldness. “Sebastian doesn’t ‘acquaint’ himselfwith people, Jade. He dissects them. He saw something in you. He saw the way youwere holding yourself.”Jade

Chapter: Chapter 4: The Golden BirdThe morning sun didn’t bring warmth; it just exposed the cracks.Jade sat at her executive desk by seven o’clock, her fingers flying across the mechanical keyboard with frantic speed. She had spent the last two hours processing international logistics memos, but her eyes kept darting to the closed mahogany doors of Lucian’s inner office.Her body ached. Last night, Lucian had been a man possessed, taking her with a rough, desperate hunger that felt less like passion and more like a man trying to claim ownership before a storm. He had left her apartment at dawn without a word, leaving only a stack of crisp hundred-dollar bills on her nightstand the “extra cost” she had demanded.It felt like blood money.“Jade, I need the Stirling harbor diagnostics,” a voice demanded.She flinched, her hand instinctively flattening over her lower abdomen.Lucian stood in the doorway. He was pristine, wrapped in a fresh navy three-piece suit that made last night look like a hallucination. But his eyes

Chapter: Chapter 3: The Ghost of the PastThe drive to her apartment was a blur of neon lights and a hollow, aching dread. The two pink lines on the pregnancy test seemed to burn right through her blazer pocket. Jade always dealt in facts, data, and hard logistics. But there was no spreadsheet that could prepare her for this.She entered her small, minimalist apartment and didn’t even turn on the lights. She simply leaned against the door, letting the darkness swallow her as her mind flashed back to the day her life ruined itself.Four years ago, the rain at the cemetery was a biting, freezing sleet. Jade, barely twenty-one in a threadbare black coat, stood shivering as they buried her father. They called his death an accident a tragic mishap on a slick road.But the aftermath was a cold, calculated execution of her family’s dignity.After the funeral, a predatory bank collector cornered Jade in her own home, demanding immediate payment for debts her father supposedly owed. When the man’s hands wandered where they didn’t belo

Chapter: Chapter 2: The Gilded CageThe silence in the hotel suite was thick enough to choke her. Lucian stood frozen, his eyes locked on the plastic test in his hand."Did you take the pills, Jade?" his voice dropped to a low, dangerous vibration.Jade forced herself to look him dead in the eye. She refused to flinch like a submissive secretary. "I have never missed a dose. Every morning, like clockwork. I don't leave things to chance.""And yet, here we are," Lucian countered, stepping right into her space. The overwhelming scent of his damp skin and expensive soap crowded her senses. He held the test up between them. "Logic says there's a variable. Did you forget? One night of too much wine? One morning where you were in too much of a rush?"Jade’s mind raced. The grueling hours, the exhausting double-duty as his Chief Secretary by day and his midnight solace by night. Three weeks ago, her mother’s lawyer had phoned with a crisis right as her alarm went off. Had she reached for the blister pack, or had she reached fo

Chapter: Chapter 1: The Weight of SilenceThe pregnancy test felt like a burning iron against Jade’s thigh. She kept it hidden deep inside her skirt pocket, her hand trembling against the plastic.Outside the CEO’s office, the morning rush of the Ashford Group was in full swing. But inside, Jade could barely breathe.One month. She was thirty-two days late.Jade smoothed her blazer and forced her face into a mask of total indifference. She was the Chief Secretary. She never missed a deadline, never ruined a suit, and she certainly never forgot her birth control.Yet, as she stood in the middle of the empty office, memories of that rain-slicked night three weeks ago flooded her mind. The night her boss had crossed the line. The night he had completely ruined her.“Jade? The car is waiting for the CEO,” a junior assistant called out, peeking through the door.“He’s already at the hotel,” Jade said. Her voice was steady and sharp, completely hiding the panic roaring in her ears. “I’m taking his clothes to him now. Make sure the

Chapter: Chapter 3SAGEThe journey was long, but I managed to fall asleep.The driver woke me up when we were five minutes away.As you came onto the land and a small town, there were rows of houses on one side with children playing nearby. I looked through the window and was in awe of the pack grounds. They were not what I ever imagined for a pack of warriors.I could feel eyes on the cab as we drove in, but I ignored them. It was up to my mother to announce who I was, not me.I looked through the windscreen and saw a massive building, which had to be the pack house.I knew it would be massive, but it looked like a castle.The cab pulled up outside, and I looked up the steps to have a better look as I looked up. I spotted the front door open and out walked my mother with Alpha Bradley.I sighed.Here goes nothing.I knew I would have to pull my big girl pants up and be the bigger person, but this would be weird whatever happened.I opened the door and climbed out.I moved toward the steps but stopped

I’m just putting all the equipment away.”“Okay,” he said, “Could you come to the office? I need to talk to you.”Before I could even answer him, my father closed the mind link.I looked back at my friends, who were eyeing me.“What’s up?” asked Jayden.I sighed.“My father wants me to go to the office,” I said.Jayden frowned.“He does know that he is the Alpha, right,” he said, making me arch my eyebrows up at him.Jayden shook his head.“Dude, I don’t mean anything by it,” he said, walking over to me
