Trapped To The Billionaire Devil
“Why are you like this, Axel?” she asked in a low voice, her tone slightly breaking. “Why won't you just leave me alone?”
For a moment, something inside me stirred. I reached out slowly and placed my fingers under her chin, lifting her face.
She tried to look away, but I wouldn’t let her. Tears pooled in her eyes, but she bit her lower lip stubbornly, trying to keep them from falling.
But that tiny act of defiance… God, it did something to me. I wanted to pull her closer, to claim her, to make her mine and never let anyone else touch her.
“One year,” I said finally.
She frowned. “What?”
“I want you,” I said clearly. “For one year, you’ll be my woman. In exchange, I’ll take care of you, your needs, your family’s protection, your brother’s freedom. Everything.”
***
After catching her scumbag boyfriend in bed with her coworker, Olivia Brooks did what any heartbroken woman might… she drowned her sorrows at a club.
One too many drinks later, she ended up in the arms of a dangerously handsome stranger. What she didn’t know was that the man she mistook for a gigolo was Axel Reynolds, a ruthless billionaire with a taste for control.
Olivia tried to move on and bury the memory of that reckless night… until fate delivered a cruel twist. Axel Reynolds wasn’t just anyone—he was her step sister’s soon-to-be husband.
Now, trapped between guilt and desire, Olivia wants to hide the truth. But Axel has already found her, and the devil never lets go of what he claims.

Chapter: The Choice She MadeAxelA few days later...I heard the sharp, furious voice coming from inside before I even got to the door."...How can you even say that, Olivia?!"I slowed my steps as I approached the hospital ward."...After everything he's done to you!"Another voice answered, much quieter."Ella, please..."Without wasting another second, I pushed the door open, and the room fell silent.Olivia sat propped up against the hospital bed, dressed in simple clothes instead of a hospital gown, her overnight bag resting beside the bed. Though the color had returned to her face over the past few days, she still looked fragile.Standing beside her was Ella.The moment Olivia saw me, she instinctively straightened, her eyes settling on mine.Ella turned. The instant our gazes met, anger flashed across her face. Her eyes blazed with undisguised fury, sharp enough to make it seem like she wanted to tear me apart with her bare hands.She planted both hands on her hips and laughed bitterly."You actually have

"I told you I was taking the day off.""I'm sorry, Sir," Derek apologized immediately. "I just received urgent news, and I had to inform you."I pinched the bridge of my nose."Couldn't this 'urgent news' wait until tomorrow?"A brief silence stretched between us before he answered. "I'm afraid not, Sir.""What is it?""I just received word that Miss Olivia has been admitted to the hospital."I frowned. "The hospital? Is she sick? What happened?"Derek hesitated. "It's worse than that. She... she attempted to harm herself."Everything inside me froze. "What?""She's currently hospitalized."What the hell?! Olivia tried to take her own life?"Send me the address.

Olivia Mrs. Jackson calmly looked at me again. There was no anger, hatred, or cold glare in her expression… just sadness.An overwhelming sadness that had hollowed her eyes.She slowly turned back toward Liam.Neither of us spoke.I hesitated before finally taking a careful step into the room, then another, and another, until I stood beside his bed.The sight before me shattered what little strength I had left.Liam lay perfectly still.His eyes remained closed peacefully, almost as if he were simply taking an afternoon nap.If not for the oxygen tube resting beneath his nose, the IV lines disappearing beneath the blankets, and the heart monitor beside him producing its steady, rhythmic beeps… I could have convinced myself he was merely sleeping.His complexion looked too pale, and his lips lacked their usual warmth.Seeing someone who had once smiled so brightly… who had always been

Others stepped out with relieved, happy smiles, embracing their loved ones. There were also those whose faces were streaked with tears, their shoulders slumped beneath the weight of heartbreaking news.I simply stood there.My feet refused to move.The breeze brushed against my face, carrying the sharp scent of disinfectant that escaped every time the hospital doors opened. I stared at the building for what felt like forever, watching strangers continue with their lives while mine felt like it had long since stopped.I drew in a shaky breath.No… I wasn't going to cry anymore.Today, I didn't care if Liam's parents threw me out again. I didn't care if they yelled at me, humiliated me, or blamed me for everything that had happened.After all, I deserved it

"I believe it's time we accelerate our expansion strategy into Europe and North America. Preliminary studies indicate strong investment opportunities, especially in the technology and healthcare sectors."A few board members nodded thoughtfully as he continued with his presentation.Just then, the conference room doors suddenly swung open, and Derek hurried inside.Ignoring the curious stares around the room, he walked straight toward me. His face was unusually grim.He leaned down and whispered just loudly enough for only me to hear."Sir...

My eyes wandered over her without shame before I could stop myself.Her perfectly fitted nurse's uniform did her plenty of favors, hugging her generous curves in all the right places. Now this was the kind of nurse a man didn't mind being treated by. A grin tugged at my lips. She was gorgeous.Maybe this hospital stay wasn't so bad after all. If she was going to be the one taking care of me from now on, I certainly wouldn't mind extending my stay a little longer. The view alone was worth it."You know..." I said, flashing what I knew was my most irresistible smile. It had been more than enough to captivate Jenny, so I had no reason to think it wouldn't work on this nurse too."You're quite beautiful."

Becoming The Billionaire's Fake Wife
“All this time, I was just a mere substitute to you? A replacement for someone you lost?”
“It’s not that simple, Sheila. I—”
“Don’t! I trusted you. Every embrace, every word, the heartfelt feelings—it was all for her, wasn’t it? Did you ever love me, Andrew? Did you ever feel something for me? Tell me!”
“Sheila, I……Sorry……”
*********************
Sheila found out her boyfriend cheated on her and then lost her . Just when she thought things couldn't get worse, she realizes how naive she still was. Her father and stepmother, her so-called family, forced her to marry a stranger, and treated her like a bargain item at a mall sale.
On the other hand, Andrew's father tried to pressure him into an engagement by threatening his inheritance. Andrew felt a sense of powerlessness as well as amusement, as he didn't care about the inheritance; he had already made a name for himself as a successful and feared business magnate.
But when he saw Sheila's smiling face, Andrew's blood froze for a moment, and his eyes were filled with shock, doubt, nostalgia, and a hint of tenderness that he hadn't even noticed. He thought that maybe this was a chance given to him by fate, and this time he had to grab it no matter what, but he didn't know how the decision he made at this moment would change his life.

The three men cursed, stumbling back, clearly irritated."Hey, you! Get out of here with that light!" one of them yelled. I didn’t waste a second. With all the desperation I felt in my chest, I screamed, "Help! Please, help me!"The car’s headlights were so bright, I couldn’t see the driver at all—just the silhouette of someone sitting behind the wheel. The men looked at each other, muttering curses before taking a few steps back, clearly annoyed but not ready to give up.I could barely breathe in the tense silence, but I was just so relieved that they were backing off. It was a small victory, but it was enough to make me feel a flicker of hope. I had to get away—get to safety before they changed their minds.Then the c

One of them, Lily, Rachael's best friend, stepped forward and slapped Carla hard across the face. “Enough, Carla! Stop acting like this is Rachel’s fault!

The crash of the glass milkshake I was holding hitting the floor echoed like thunder. I stood frozen, staring at the mess. The thick, sticky liquid spread across the floor, and I could feel my heart sink.Who the hell had spilled water here?!“Phoebe!” My boss’s sharp voice cut through the air like a knife. He was fuming, his face red with frustration. “What the hell is wrong with you? How many times do I have to tell you to be careful?”I opened my mouth to apologize, but he was already shaking his head in disgust.“Get the mop and clean this up, now! I don't want to hear any of your silly excuses,” He ordered. His tone was harsher than usual, and I could feel the heat rising in my cheeks.These past weeks had been nothing short of a nightmare.

"Sheila," Mom began, her voice gentle yet curious, "I've noticed Andrew dropping you off quite often lately. Are you two back together?" A warm blush immediately crept up my cheeks. I paused, folding a shirt, and then replied, "We're just taking things slowly, Mom. One step at a time." She looked at me with a knowing smile, her eyes twinkling with mischief. "I see," she said, her tone teasing. "Well, if you're really sure about giving Andrew another chance, then I give you my blessings." I felt a surge of happiness and gratitude. I walked over to her, enveloping her in a tight hug. "Thank you, Mom. You've always stood by me, and I can't express how much that means to me." She pulled back slightly, holding my hands i

I had been buried in work, the weight of the business constantly hanging over my head. As I sat in my office, typing away on my laptop, a sharp knock on the door interrupted my concentration. Before I could respond, the door swung open, and my parents entered. My secretary rushed in after them, looking flustered. It was obvious she had tried to stop them, but they were having none of it.

As soon as the plane’s door opened, the cold rush of air hit us, and I could see the flashing lights of police cars waiting on the tarmac. They were already here, prepared for whatever would unfold next. As we began to step off the plane, the sound of raised voices reached us. Turning around, I saw Andrew's guards holding Anna back, their grip firm as she struggled against them. "Please, I just need to talk to her!" Anna cried out desperately, her voice trembling. "I promise I don't mean any harm!"Andrew’s expression darkened as he stepped forward. “Take her away,” he ordered, his tone cold and unyielding. “I don’t want to see her again.” “No!

Rows of chairs were filled with men and women from different walks of life—doctors, nurses, hospital administrators, dignitaries, and men of wealth and influence who had flown in from across countries. Suddenly, the MC, a tall man in a black suit with a broad smile, walked to the podium. The murmurs in the room quieted as he tapped the microphone once. “Ladies and gentlemen,” his voice rang clearly across the hall, “It is my honor to announce the award for the Best Surgeon of the Year —an award that recognizes excellence, dedication, and a heart that never gives up in the service of humanity. And this year’s award goes to…” He paused dramatically, smiling at the crowd. “Dr. Emma Morgan!” The room erupted with applause, cheers, and whistles.

She reached for her daughter’s hand, tears pooling in her eyes. “No, sweetheart. This isn’t make-believe. I’m so sorry for not telling you earlier. David is your real father.”David took a hesitant step forward. He knelt down so he could look Claire straight in the eyes. His hands trembled as he gently held hers.“I know I’ve missed so much,” he said softly, his voice breaking with emotion. “Your first steps, your first words… six years of your life I’ll never get back. That’s my biggest regret. I should have been here from the very beginning. But if you’ll let me, I promise from today, I’ll never leave your side again.

It was transformed into the world of Moana, Claire’s favorite cartoon character.Bright turquoise drapes hung like ocean waves across the ceiling, and seashell decorations sparkled under the lights. A giant backdrop of Moana standing bravely by the sea was set against the wall behind the cake table. Balloons in blue, white, and coral pink floated everywhere, and paper palm trees stood in the corners, giving the hall the feeling of an island paradise.Claire entered the hall dressed in a stunning gown that instantly stole everyone’s attention. It was a soft sky-blue dress with sparkly patterns that shimmered like the sea. A sash tied at her waist with a little seashell brooch made her look like a real princ

"The house is beautiful, and everyone has been very welcoming. I'm actually getting Benjamin ready. We have to head to the hospital for his next doctor's appointment."There was a brief pause.Then Damien sighed."Nyssa... are you absolutely certain you don't need me over there?"I closed my eyes.Here we go again."I mean it," he continued before I could respond.

Blood stained his split lip, and one side of his face was swollen and bruised. Scratches covered his neck, while fresh cuts showed beneath the torn sleeve of his shirt. Despite the cold room, sweat rolled down his face.Two detectives stood across from him. One leaned both hands on the table, his expression cold."Tell us the truth."The other tossed a stack of photographs onto the table."The vehicle, the surveillance footage, the witness statements... We already know what happened. So tell us who hired you."The man merely lowered his head, breathing heavily.My hands slowly curled into fists inside my coat pockets.

It felt like if I stayed still enough, maybe the world would stop expecting me to continue living in it.“I’ve finished dressing your stitches, Mrs. Black,” Nurse Grace said gently. Her voice sounded far away, like it was coming from underwater.I didn’t look at her, didn’t care about the stitches or the pain coming from my abdomen. Everything just felt shallow.“Mrs. Black…” she sighed. “You need to take heart. I know this is very difficult, but—”She kept speaking, but her voice gradually faded to the point where I couldn’t hear her anymore.My eyes stayed fixed on the window.Something inside me had gone quiet.It felt like something vital had been ripped out of me so completely that even pain had no place left to attach itself.Maybe it was my reason to live.
