The Billionaire's Secret Baby.
One night. One mistake. One child he never knew existed.
I never planned for him to find out.
Five years ago, I gave him one night. A one, reckless encounter with the man who destroyed my heart before he ever completely held it.
Then I vanished pregnant, alone, and determined to shield my kid from his brutal world.
But fate is harsh. Now, standing in his billion-dollar boardroom with his steel-grey eyes focused upon me, I feel it, the spark of recognition, the wrath, the incredulity.
And my secret is ready to erupt.
She believed she could keep my child from me.
Anna Carter, the woman I’ve tried to forget is back, and she’s hiding something far more deadly than her curves or her lies.
My son.
The heir I never knew existed.
The single person who could ruin the empire I built… or the only one who could save my dark, twisted soul.
And I will stop at nothing to claim them both.
But nothing is simple.
My adversaries are closing in.
Her past is worse than I thought.
The lady I believed betrayed me is involved in secrets that might doom us all.
I want her submission, her love, her forgiveness.
She wants to keep our son safe from me.
Neither of us can have it all.
When betrayal strikes from within my world and her life is threatened, we’re thrown into a hazardous. game of deception, seduction, and deadly truths.
Will we survive the conflict between us… or will her ultimate secret ruin all I’ve ever loved?

Chapter: Chapter 52. Beneath The Steel Mask.
The door swung open without a knock. Alex stepped in, the very face Anna had ached to see. But his eyes were cold and unreadable, already stripping her bare. Anna’s chest caved as the desperate plea tore from her lips “Alex, please… they’re going to kill Maya.” Her hand fumbled for the phone on the bed, trembling as she reached to play the voice note. But before she could press the screen, his voice cut clean through her panic. “I heard voices earlier” Alex’s voice was calm, but edged with steel. “Care to explain?” The question wasn’t curiosity, more like an accusation. Her blood spiked, temper flaring hot enough to scorch her fear. “Why not ask your whore for an assistant?” The words snapped out sharper than she intended, brittled with rage. “For a heartbeat, silence reigned. His face hardly moved, but the slight curl of his mouth wasn’t a smile; it was a predator’s smirk, lingering just long enough to savor her flinch. “Jealous, Anna?” His voice dropped low and deliberate, each

Chapter: Chapter 51: The Third wheel.“What is she doing here by this time? With him” The word slipped out, broken. Denial rushed to her rescue, frantic and useless. Maybe she’s just working late. Maybe this is business.But she knew better, the hour was too late, and his posture too unguarded. Alex’s head tilted slightly toward Lucia, his face shadowed softer than it had been with her. And Lucia 's shoulders leaned in, voice hushed, her hand hovering too close to his arm. Through the thin wood, Anna caught fragments:“…you can’t trust her with this, Alex.”He didn’t correct her or shut her down. He only murmured something low, too soft for Anna to catch and that silence shattered her more than any denial could have healed.“…she’s already a liability. She’ll slow you down.” Lucia’s voice pressed.Each word cut clean through her, like shards of glass lodged beneath her skin.Her body flared hot, and then collapsed into ice. Gary’s voice slithered back, cruelly and precisely: Men like Knight don’t fall to enemies, they fal

Chapter: Chapter 50. Stripped.Anna’s tears came hot and relentless, spilling past her trembling hands as though her body no longer knew how to contain them. Her chest ached with the violent rise and fall of her breath, every sob tearing her thinner, and hollower. She didn’t know which wound hurt more: the terror of Alex throwing her out again with no one to catch her fall, or the exposure of Gary’s betrayal, slicing away the one ally she thought she had left. Maybe it was Maya’s face flashing in her mind, still in captivity because of her, or worse, it was the sound of Gary’s voice curling around her son’s name.Her whole body shook with the weight of it. She felt naked, stripped and broken to marrow.“That’s very callous, Gary,” she had mummured, her voice shredded with tears.But now the silence was worse. Twenty minutes had crawled by since the call ended, and Alex hadn’t spoken a word. He just stood there immovable, and dangerous. His face was unreadable, his eyes shadowed in thought. The silence pressed on he

Chapter: Chapter 49. Letting Go.Gary Wolfe had once been a ghost in the system, an operative who wore both the FBI and CIA badges at different points in his career. He walked away from federal corridors of power to run his own investigations. He is independent, untouchable, and loyal only to the truth he dug up. Truth, however, had a price, and Gary worked only for those who could afford his strange fees.Almost never seen in his true form, he favored disguises: sometimes a middle-aged woman in a thrift-store coat, other times a nurse with tired eyes, a church matron clutching rosary beads, a street vendor hawking roasted nuts on a corner on the rare occasion he appeared as himself, it was always in shadows, his presence fleeting, like a rumor given shape. Those who had crossed his path said the same thing: “You don’t find Gary! Gary finds you.”Yet for all his masks, Gary himself had none. He was a man without attachments, not in college or in the Bureau, even in the hollow years when whiskey was next to none to hi

Chapter: Chapter 48. Revenge in Ashes.Anna had thought she was in control. The file had landed at her door like a curse, and for one fierce moment she’d believed it was her weapon. A weapon to make Alexander Knight choke on the same grief he had forced down her throat, night after night, for those hollow two months he kept Noah from her. But now, standing in his office, she felt her chest cave in. The secret she had clung to, the very one meant to ruin him, was seconds from being exposed to the man it was meant to destroy. Alex stood by the window, broad shoulders etched against Manhattan’s evening glow. The city pulsed with golden lights and restless shadows, but his silence was sharper than any blade. When he finally turned, the weight of his stare pinned Anna to the floor. “What else are you hiding?” His voice cracked through the stillness. Then, louder, and merciless: “Answer me!” The vibration of his tone rattled through her bones. Anna’s gaze skittered to the desk, the rug, the bookshelves anywhere else but his
