Married to my Cold BILLIONAIRE Boss

Married to my Cold BILLIONAIRE Boss

"See how pretty you are when ur not talking" He said as he thrusted himself into my mouth. Three months before her wedding, Dianne Carter walks into her bedroom… and finds her fiancé in bed with another woman. In one moment, her perfect life shatters. With nowhere to run and nothing left to hold onto, she never expects salvation to come from the last man she would ever trust—her cold, ruthless billionaire boss, Alexander Blackwood. He doesn’t believe in love. He believes in control. And he needs a wife. Bound by a six-month contract marriage to secure custody of his young daughter, Dianne is thrown into a world of power, wealth, and danger—where nothing is as simple as it seems. But living with Alexander is a risk she never prepared for. The way he protects her. The way he watches her. The way his control begins to slip whenever she’s close… This was never supposed to become real. Just as their fake marriage starts to feel dangerously genuine, Dianne’s past comes back with a vengeance—and this time, it’s not just her heart at risk. Because in a world of ruthless enemies and hidden betrayals, loving Alexander Blackwood might cost her everything… …and he may be forced to choose who lives and who dies.

Chapter: CHAPTER 6: The Gala.
The car smelled like leather and Alexander's silence.I sat with my knees pressed together, watching the city blur into gold through tinted glass. The dress he'd chosen was red, silk that moved when I breathed, cut lower than anything I'd owned. I kept wanting to cover my chest with my palm. I kept stopping myself."Stop fidgeting." Alexander didn't look up from his phone. "Your hand has moved twelve times in two minutes.""I'm adjusting the strap.""You're performing nervousness." He finally looked at me. The blue eyes caught the streetlights, cold and assessing. "Rachel will look for that. She'll see the strap adjustment, the hand at your throat, the way you keep checking your reflection in the windows." He paused. "She'll know you're uncertain. And she'll use it.""I'm not uncertain." I turned to face him. "I'm realistic. I don't belong here.""You belong where I put you." He returned to his phone, thumb moving. "That's the only reality that matters tonight."The car stopped. Valet

Chapter: CHAPTER 5: The Performance.
The penthouse smelled like coffee and expectation.I stood in the elevator, watching numbers climb, and practiced breathing. The dress Alexander had sent fit perfectly, navy, modest, the kind of thing a wife wore to breakfast with her husband's daughter. Not the silk from the night before. Not my wrinkled blouse from the airport. Something new, purchased without my input, designed for a role I hadn't rehearsed.The doors opened. I stepped into a space that wasn't an office and wasn't entirely home. Open kitchen, living area, windows showing morning over a city I still didn't recognize. And Alexander at the stove, wearing gray, sleeves rolled, focused on something burning in a pan with the intensity he usually reserved for acquisitions.He didn't look up. "You're late.""I'm exactly on time."Now he looked. His eyes moved from my face to my shoulders to the dress, assessing, finding fault in ways I couldn't predict. "The shoes. Change them."I looked down. Heels I'd selected, comfortab

Chapter: CHAPTER 4: The Replacement.
"Dianne," she said. "May I come in?"I didn't move. My hand was still wrapped in blue thread from the rabbit I'd never fixed."I know what you're thinking," she continued. "You're thinking this is dramatic." She tilted her head. "But I didn't come for drama. I came to tell you three things. Then I'll leave."I should have walked away. Should have called security, called Marcus, called the man who'd warned me not to expect explanations.I opened the door.She entered without waiting for invitation. Heels silent on carpet, rubber soles, expensive, designed for this. She moved through the living room, touched the lilies, wrinkled her nose. "He still does this. The research. The inventory." She turned. "I used to think it meant he cared."She settled on the couch. The same couch where I'd sat with thread in my hand. She belonged there in a way I never would."First," she said, holding up one finger. "You're not special. You're scheduled. Each wife gets a different wound to heal. I got his

Chapter: CHAPTER 3: The Tower.
"Yes"I accepted the contract.---The car stopped. I didn't move.Blackwood Tower rose through the windshield, seventy floors of glass and steel that bent the light wrong. The driver opened my door. Humidity hit like a wet hand, August in New York, pressing my blouse to my spine.Alexander hadn't spoken since the airport. He sat on his side of the seat, blue eyes on his phone, thumb moving in patterns that suggested he was deleting more than he was writing."Sixty-fifth floor," he said, not looking up. "Marcus has the key. I have meetings.""That's it?"Now he looked. The blue eyes were winter again, the color of depths that didn't forgive. "You signed. I delivered. What more do you want?"I got out. The car pulled away before I'd found my balance on the sidewalk, leaving me with one bag, yesterday's clothes, and a contract that turned me into someone I didn't recognize.The lobby swallowed me. Marble, security, a desk where three men watched without appearing to. I walked to the ele

Chapter: CHAPTER 2: The Choice.
The airport smelled like coffee and anxiety. I moved through it without seeing, security, gate, the endless corridor of shops selling things no one needed at 5 AM. My body performed the motions while my mind circled the same thought: I left. I actually left.The gate agent scanned my phone. "Flight 1847 to New York. Seat 12B."I found it. Economy, last row, window. The seatbelt clicked with a sound that felt final. I stared at the tarmac, gray and wet with dawn, and waited for the tears to come.They didn't.Instead: numbness. A strange, floating sensation, like the ground had dropped away but I hadn't started falling yet. I thought of David waking up. Finding me gone. The cake still on the floor, chocolate seeping into the wood grain. Would he clean it? Would Samantha? Would they stay in our bed, laughing about how dramatic I'd been?The plane filled around me. Businessmen with laptops. A family with a crying toddler. No one looked twice at the woman in yesterday's blouse, no makeup,

Chapter: CHAPTER 1: Betrayal.
You know that saying."Happily Ever After"Yeah....It never fucking happens!---[AT THE BAKERY]The woman in the gray coat didn't wait in line.I noticed her immediately, shoulders back, chin lifted, sunglasses pushed into blonde hair that cost more than my monthly rent. She didn't check the menu. Didn't fidget. Just radiated the particular impatience of people who'd never been told no."Next," the cashier called.The woman didn't move. A man appeared beside her, dark suit, earpiece, the kind of presence that announced itself without sound. He spoke too quietly for me to catch. Whatever he said worked. The cashier's face changed, nervous now, reaching for a box prepared behind the counter.She shifted my own cake box, chocolate ganache, David's favorite, three days' wait for this surprise, and watched the woman take her order without thanks. As she turned, her phone rang. She answered: "Tell Blackwood I'll handle it."She didn't acknowledge anyone was there but herself.She didn't lo
