"That's not very gentlemanly Mr Montclair" I whispered into his ear.
He rips my dress only to find me bare underneath.
" A gentleman man is far from what you need right now" he replied spanking my bare pussy.

But in a marriage built on transactions, secrets begin to surface.
Killian Montclair may not be as indifferent to Jade as he claims.
In a world where loyalty is bought and hearts are negotiated, Jade must decide:
Will she remain bound by contract…

Chapter: AdamChapter thirty six Killian ’s POVI knew she heard.I didn’t need to see her.Didn’t need to step into the hallway or check the shadows to confirm it.I just knew.Because the moment Caleb said his name,The air shifted.His name always did something to me, I could also see the regret in Caleb's eyes. Jade wasn’t careless.She didn’t linger where she wasn’t supposed to.But she listened, observed and noticed.And tonight,She heard something she wasn’t meant to.“Not yet,” I had said.And I meant it.Because the moment she found out about Adam,Everything would change.She would see me differently and I didn't want that. Not yet. Caleb leaned back against the chair, watching me with that familiar look.The one that said he wasn’t going to let this go.“You’re delaying the inevitable,” he said calmly.“I’m managing timing.”“You’re avoiding it.”I exhaled slowly.“I’m choosing when she finds out.”Caleb scoffed lightly.“You really think you’ll control that?”“Yes.”Because I had c

Chapter: Serious UncleChapter thirty five Jade’s POVThe house felt different tonight.Not quiet like before.Just full.Occupied.Alive in a way it hadn’t been when it was only Killian and me pretending we understood what this arrangement was supposed to be.Now Aurelia was here.Her small shoes near the staircase.Her voice echoing from somewhere down the hall.Her presence filling the space with something warm and unfamiliar.I had just finished setting the plates on the kitchen island when I heard small footsteps running toward me.“Mama!”I looked up just in time to catch Aurelia hugging my waist.I still wasn’t used to it.That word.Every time she said it, something inside me shifted slightly.Something soft.Something dangerous.I remember how she ran to hug me when Killian and I had returned from work together. He said I was always welcome to the office until I was ready to do me. “Slow down,” I said gently, brushing her hair back.“Daddy said Uncle Caleb is coming.”“Did he?”She nodded seriou

Chapter: YouChapter thirty four Jade’s POVThe word still echoed in my head.Mama.I stared at my reflection in the mirror, fingers brushing lightly over my face like I was trying to recognize the person looking back at me.Nothing had changed and yet,Everything felt different.“Jade?”His voice came from behind me.Low.Careful.I met his gaze through the mirror.Killian stood by the door, his expression unreadable as always, but there was something else there tonight.Something quieter.Less guarded.“She’s asleep,” he said.I nodded slowly.“Okay.”Silence stretched between us.Not awkward.Just, I don't, full?“You didn’t have to say yes.”My eyes flickered to his.“I know.”“Then why did you?”I hesitated.Because I didn’t have a simple answer.“She looked like she needed it,” I said finally.His gaze didn’t leave mine.“She has me.”“And?” I asked softly. “Is that always enough?”That question did something.I saw it.The slight shift.The way his jaw tightened just a little.But he didn’

Chapter: MamaChapter thirty threeJade’s POVI didn’t expect to be nervous.It wasn’t like this was new.I had already met Aurelia.Spent time with her.Laughed with her.But this felt… different.Maybe it was because she was moving in and not visiting.Not temporary.Permanent.Or maybe it was because of what that meant.For Killian .For me.For whatever this was supposed to be.The car ride was quiet.Not uncomfortable.Just quiet. Killian drove, one hand steady on the wheel, the other resting loosely near the gear.Calm.Composed.Like always.I glanced at him once.Then quickly looked away.“You’re overthinking.”I blinked.“Do you ever get tired of saying that?”“No.”I huffed softly.“Good to know.”He paused Then,“She already likes you.”I turned slightly.“What?”“Aurelia,” he said simply. “She likes you.”My chest tightened.“That doesn’t mean,”“I know what it means,” he cut in calmly.And somehow,That didn’t make it better.We pulled into the driveway of his mother’s house shortly

Chapter: Work with meChapter thirty two Jade’s POVI didn’t realize how bored I was until the silence started getting to me again.It had only been a day.One day in that house without anything to do, nowhere to go, no one to talk to and I already felt like I was losing my mind.I needed to get back to work. I was sprawled across the couch, flipping through channels I wasn’t even watching when my phone rang.Killian .My heart did that annoying little thing again.I picked up on the second ring.“Hello?”“You sound bored.”I sat up immediately.“I am not bored.”“You are.”I frowned.“You don’t know that.”“I do.”Something about the certainty in his voice made me roll my eyes, even though a small part of me was….relieved.“I was going to suggest you come by the office,” he continued. “Or pick up Aurelia. She’s supposed to move in today.”My expression softened slightly at her name.But then….“I’ll come to the office,” I said quickly.A small pause.“You’re sure?”“Yes,” I replied, standing already. “W

Chapter: Like itChapter thirty one Jade’s POVI didn’t know what to do with myself.Why did ask Killian that question yesterday Something had shifted.And I didn’t like that I couldn’t name it.The house was quiet when I stepped out of the room.Too quiet.The kind of quiet that made everything feel louder, my thoughts, my heartbeat, the echo of every moment I was trying not to overthink.I made my way downstairs slowly, holding onto the railing like I needed something solid.Something real.Because nothing about my life felt stable anymore.“Careful.”His voice came from behind me.I froze slightly before turning.Killian stood a few steps behind me, already dressed, his sleeves rolled just enough to expose his wrists, his watch catching the light.He looked normal and composed.Like last night hadn’t happened.“I'm fine,” I said.He didn’t look convinced.“You almost slipped.”“I said I’m fine.” I didn't even know why I was suddenly being like this, I had no right to demand an answer from him.
