THE BILLIONAIRE'S SURROGATE: HIS HOUND CHOOSES ME
Ethan Vance, the sole heir to the Vance Empire, had been in a coma for months following an accident that nearly took his life. In order to preserve their bloodline, the Vances had come up with a desperate backup plan: a surrogate who could carry a new heir.
But finding a volunteer wasn't the issue.
The real problem lay in the chamber itself... the billionaire's monstrous guard dog beside his unconscious body, viciously attacking anyone who dared to step near the bed.
Consequently, the Vances sent a ruthless mandate to every prominent family in the state: provide an eligible female candidate who could tame the beast and carry the heir, or face complete financial ruin.
My father, eager to please them and rid himself of an unwanted daughter, threw my name straight into the candidate box.
But Ken, my boyfriend, was supposed to save me from becoming a surrogate candidate.
The plan was simple:“ELENA STEWART, wait for me in your late mother’s old cupboard. I’ll knock, and we’ll be out before anyone notices.”
I waited for him with hope, only to find him in my stepsister’s arms...with one shocking revelation: he was the very monster who had submitted my name to the Vances.
Worn down by the betrayal, I couldn't fight back.
I was dragged away with the expectation that I would be devoured by the beast.
Now, my fate is sealed inside the Vance mansion, where a bloodthirsty dog has sent every other woman running in fear—or carried out in a stretcher.
But somehow, I'm the only one it chooses.
I thought surviving the trial was my happy ending. Until I discovered the secret that could either consume me… or make me

Chapter: CHAPTER 27: SHES INNOCENT!Her eyes darkened, a venomous rage flashing across her features. Mrs. Vance lunged forward, grabbing my wrist in a vicious grip and spinning me around to face her directly."Who do you think you are to defy my orders?" she hissed, her voice vibrating with malice."I'm Elena Stewart," I said, holding her gaze with unyielding steel. "I may not have everything, but that doesn't mean you get to order me around like a servant. First, you framed me for attacking your son, even though you found me unconscious on the exact same floor. Then, you went ahead and—""Don't you dare talk back to me!"I let out a cold chuckle. "You asked me a question, and I answered it. Why cause a massive fuss over the truth?"Her breath caught in her throat. The sheer shock of my defiance made her chest heave. I guessed absolutely no one in her entire life had ever spoken to the matriarch of the Vance estate in that manner.I glanced down at her hand constricting my wrist. In a fraction of a second, I snapped my

Chapter: CHAPTER 26: GO AHEAD, DO YOUR WORST.Elena's POV"Let go of me!" I yelled, thrashing against them. But their grips were like iron cuffs around my wrists.They dragged me out of the room, hauling me down a grand, sprawling corridor I didn't even know existed. The moment we stepped into the open air, the brilliant morning sun struck my eyes. I gasped, frantically trying to shield my face from the blinding light with my shoulder.As they continued dragging me, we passed several groups of maids. The moment they saw me, they covered their mouths, whispering in low tones that made my stomach drop."I actually feel bad for her. She's about to become a sacrificial lamb.""I heard even her own father disowned her and left.""Well, that's what she gets for trying to frame the matriarch for her own son's attack."I swallowed hard, fear twisting in my throat.A sacrificial lamb? What do they mean? Were they taking me to an execution?When we finally turned into a wing of the estate I actually recognized, the entire area was buzzing

Chapter: CHAPTER 25: THE PROMISE I BELIEVED.Elena's POVMuffled voices drifted over me like a distant, chaotic argument. I rolled over on the small mattress, my eyelids sewn shut by a heavy, exhaustion. Every time I tried to force them open, they felt too heavy to obey.Then, a subtle, intoxicating scent brushed past my nose.Rich cedar and moss.It was a scent I would recognize anywhere. It was Ethan's.My eyes snapped open, my heart hammering against my ribs with wild, desperate expectation. But as my vision cleared, the crushing reality set in. The room was empty. There was no one there.I closed my eyes again, a bitter ache blooming in my chest. What was I thinking? Even if he were awake, why would someone like Ethan ever think of visiting me in a place like this?But as the fog in my brain began to lift, a sudden realization hit me. How had I ended up on the bed? The last thing I remembered was a cold, brutal needle sinking into my neck.I tried to sit up, but a fierce throb in my head forced me back down. I buried my face

Chapter: CHAPTER 24: I WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU.I stood up, my throat tight and my pulse hammering. My gaze remained locked on the door, bracing myself for whatever was about to walk through it.If Dan had truly gone to my mother, I was ready to face the consequences. I just had to make sure none of the fallout hit Elena.Suddenly, the door burst open. Dan entered first, panting and sweating heavily as if he had just run a marathon. He was clutching a leather medical bag to his chest as though his very life depended on it.My eyes followed him as he staggered toward me, still catching his breath. Then my gaze shifted past his shoulder to the doorway. A shadow loomed in the hall, bending down briefly to examine the unconscious men scattered across the floor.Before I could fully process the sight, the family doctor stepped into the room.My eyes widened. What is he doing here?I nearly screamed the question aloud. As the doctor walked further into the dim light, his own eyes widened when he noticed my bare chest and the damp shirt i

She didn't move, didn't breathe, didn't say a word.When I lifted her head, her body slumped into my arms, drained of life. My heart skipped a violent beat. I looked up at Dan, utterly lost, panic clawing at my chest."She's not responding," I stuttered, my voice cracking. "Dan, what do we do?""We need to leave this place. Right now," Dan said coldly.My breath caught. I stared at him, my eyes widening in disbelief. For as long as I could remember, I thought I was the cold-hearted one. But hearing him say those words made me realize how wrong I was."Leave?" I nearly screamed. "Leave her like this? Look at her condition!"Dan just nodded, his eyes darting past my head toward the door."That sleeping spray can only keep those men out for a while. We need to leave before—""You're insane! I am not leaving her like this!""If we don't leave right now, we're going to get caught," Dan

Chapter: CHAPTER 22: I WILL PROTECT YOU. Chapter 22As they advanced, their faces grew tight and daring, weapons drawn and ready.I held my breath, one eye shut, anticipating the worst. Where was Dan’s Plan B?"Seems you need to be taught a lesson," the leader sneered, raising a heavy steel rod.In a flash, Dan dipped his right hand into his pocket while clamping his left hand firmly over his nose. He whipped out a small canister of sleeping spray.I bit my lip so hard that I almost tasted blood. Was this Plan B?Before I could shout a warning, Dan moved. In a wild, spinning twist, he unleashed the sleeping spray directly into their faces, one after the other.Within seconds, the corridor vanished beneath a thick mist. The sharp, chemical scent hit me, and I quickly covered my face.When the mist finally cleared, the men were strewn across the floor, snoring like felled trees. Only one man remained standing.Dan.I stepped out of my hiding place, my heart still hammering against my ribs. A proud smile stretched across Dan's

Chapter: CHAPTER 17: THE MEETING IIELENA'S POVThe atmosphere stiffened around me."No, I'm seeing this wrong... It can't be him!" I muttered, trying to convince myself that it wasn't him. But the moment he walked toward me, my breath froze.Well-defined cheekbones, broad chest, dark curly hair...It's him!I took a step back. My pulse hammered in my throat as questions crashed into each other."Ma'am, are you all right?" the hostess asked after noticing my hesitation and restlessness.I turned, my eyes burning.My mistake was coming here alone. I should have allowed Cleo to tag along. At least she knew what to do at times like this... unlike this stupid question.I slowly looked away from her and returned my gaze to the center of attention."Welcome, Mrs. Adams E. We formally welcome you to LA," his voice boomed as he gave a slight bow.My heart skipped a beat.My legs shook for no reason. I staggered backward, and before I could blink, my foot slipped.I found myself falling down the stairs toward the ground."Mrs. A

Chapter: CHAPTER 16: THE MEETING.ETHAN'S POVThe morning sun rays from the glass hit my eyes, causing me to jolt awake.My eyes opened slightly. No matter how hard I tried, they didn't open fully. I slowly reached out for my phone and used it as my mirror.My breath froze when I saw how swollen my eyes were... but I wouldn't blame them. I slept with tears in my eyes and liquor on my hands.I pushed my phone out and slowly gazed at the floor.My head spun the moment I saw the countless numbers of liquor bottles on the floor. Never in my lifetime had I drunk this much."One, two, three, four, five, fifteen..." I lost count and instantly gave up. I slowly reached for the newly opened one. I didn't bother reaching for a glass before pouring its contents into my mouth.My jaw tightened at the slap it came with... Is it just the wine's slap or the sting that's piercing my heart?Elena is gone. Why's she still after me? Maybe it's payback, considering the fact that I didn't treat her with kindness while she was here... but

I spun around, my hands mid-air with my glass slightly raised."They remain yours," Cleo replied with a proud smile.Mrs. Adams stared, with a hint of confusion and something like admiration in her eyes.I needed no one to tell me that her head would probably be filled with questions already.Just as expected, she voiced it out."What's happening?" she asked with genuine confusion and curiosity."Well, this is what I meant by killing two birds with one stone." I giggled, but her eyes still held confusion.I released a deep sigh, that one you draw when someone refuses to get your point. Slowly, her wrinkled eyes grew bigger and bigger, as if she was recollecting data and reconnecting them together."You're a badass! You paid her a billion for the shares in her possession, and she was fined a billion dollars for violating the marriage law. The money was paid to your account, and in the end, you now own the shares and the money!?" She rapped through her breath.I nodded

Chapter: CHAPTER 14: THE WEDDING SURPRISE IIEMMA'S POVMy hands shook against my mouth. My legs gave way the moment I heard those words."Emma Armstrong, you are hereby ordered to pay a billion dollars in compensation for the damages caused by your actions. Failure to do so may result in a prison sentence."The next second, everything went blank. I found myself falling into darkness, and the last words I heard were the exclamation, "Someone has fainted!"By the time I opened my eyelids again, I was no longer in the midst of the crowd. Instead, I was seated inside a car.I tilted my head sideways and looked up, only to find Mom staring intensely outside the window. On the other side was Dad, looking somehow exhausted.My gaze slowly went down to my dress. I was still in my wedding dress, with my flowers still intact in my hands.Was it a dream?"Mom..." My voice came out low, so low that I could barely hear myself."I had a crazy dream that my wedding with Ethan got interrupted by Avon, the marriage law prosecutor... He said I w

Avon questioned firmly.She gave a curt nod like someone trying to deny an allegation after being caught red-handed."She died while trying to escape with Ethan's money. Everyone knows," she let out a dry and nervous laugh."Lies!" One of the reporters stepped forward with his mic stretched toward Emma's mouth. "We know nothing about it. She was only declared dead without us seeing her corpse.""Yes," another stepped forward."How did you know she died?"Another emerged."How did you know she wanted to escape with Mr. Ethan's money?"In less than a blink of an eye, reporters cornered her, throwing questions at her.Tiny beads of sweat formed on her forehead as she stared from one face to another.When Cleo suggested I pay reporters to instigate the plan,

My voice blew the entering trumpet because it really needed to."This wedding cannot take place," the voice stated again, but this time it came with the face that held it.Cameras turned.Eyes wrinkled into frowns the moment they faced the person behind the voice as he stepped forward into the hall fully.Murmurs began."Isn't that Prosecutor Avon, the highest law...?""What is he doing here?""Could it be that this marriage is against the law?"The camera left Avon and landed on Emma's face.Her face was all flushed out with something like fear and confusion.Without anyone telling me what's on her mind, I already knew she must be asking, "What's happening?"A smug smile appeared at the corner of my lips.Five years. It took me five good years to come up with this plan.Let's see how it goes.Avon walked slowly to the almost newlyweds, each step
