Marrying Mr. Greyson
“You are under arrest, Sienna Hopper for the murder of Jace Wright!”

“You said you were angry and went to his house with a bat, did you not? You trashed his apartment. Everything but him? And from the picture we received, his nose was broken. Now you said you didn’t touch him but you broke his nose. Do you mind explaining that to us?” My interrogator quirked a brow at me, the all-knowing look on his face and it said one word, culprit.
Fuck that looked bad. It was bad. “I want a lawyer,” I instantly said.

Sienna is a rash and impulsive girl but beneath the tough girl act is a heartbroken and abused girl. When her mother gets ill with cancer, with a bill worth a lifetime. With the heat of everything, her ass-cheating ex calls her once again and there, and then she snaps, storms over to his house, destroys everything, and lands a punch squarely on his face. When she retires home, an old wound opens and she ends up at the bar, just to drink away her sorrow but then she ends up in bed with the city’s most powerful, cold-hearted lawyer, Greyson. Just a one-night stand, she tells herself. Nothing more.
Until the next morning, when she’s arrested for her ex’s murder. And the only person willing to take her case? The same man she just slept with.
She can’t afford his fees, but he has a proposition: marry him, have his child, and he’ll defend her in court. Two things Sienna has vowed in life never to be, a wife and a mother.
But desperate time calls for desperate measures, isn’t that right, it’s just a marriage, and a child.

Chapter: They found the bodyChapter 7.Sienna’s povAfter the warning note, Greyson had gone full investigator mode. He and his team had been digging for evidence that proved I wasn’t guilty. That came out harder than I thought and today was the first day of trial.“What are we going to do?” asked Courtney, one of his firm’s associates. “Without the body found. We can't make a strong case.”Greyson wore a grey suite that clung to his frame perfectly. Molding and accentuating his broad shoulder, and body. His eyes, those sharp, controlled greys eyes remained focused. Determined.“We’ll do what they are doing. Place facts as we know them. We have no body. They have no body. It so depends on who tells the story better. That’s the secret of most trials.”I looked away from Courtney, remembering Jace. Blonde hair, blue eyes with piercings and tattoos. I hated him and I knew I said I was grateful he was dead, but I truly wish he wasn’t dead.Our relationship wasn’t the best. It was toxic, smoking, lots of drinking, an

Chapter: The Envelope Chapter 6:Sienna’s pov“Goodbye, I love each and every one of you. Even you, Amy,” I said hugging Beth. Amy, of course, wouldn’t give me a hug, we weren’t that close and both of us were always at loggerheads with each other.I hadn’t told them I would be standing trial. And just like I’d known, none of them knew where I was. I couldn’t blame them though. It was a normal thing for someone who did what I did. Strip dancing. What I told Beth was that I was moving in with a good friend of mine. It just felt weird explaining all the details of my relationship with Greyson, and more than that there was no way in hell I would introduce him as my husband-to-be just yet or anything in between. If it were possible I would love to leave this part of my life a secret till it was over. I didn’t want to get their hopes high for nothingWith my duffel bag of clothes, I slipped into the car waving one last goodbye to my siblings.“Ready?” he asked from the driver’s seat.I turned to him with a forc

Chapter: The CourtroomChapter 5: Greyson’s povI handed her the paper for her to sign. She stared at it, still contemplating, her eyes flickering from one line to the other as she bit her lips.“If you do not——““I’ll sign it. Pen,” she said, beckoning to me and when I arched a brow at her, she went for my bag. But I held up my hand and offered her the pen.“I’ll do it, this place is shit hell.” The pen scribbled across the paper, two places where her signature was needed. She lifted her head, “any other thing?”“Yes.” I retrieved the paper from my bag. “It gives me the right to be your attorney.”She tentatively peeked at the marriage contract form then the legal paper, then with a sigh she muttered, “well, you gotta get what you get, hmm?” Then signed as well.“So what now?”“I’ll motion for an emergency bail hearing.”“I don’t know what that is,” she mumbled.“You’ll know in due time. Give me a moment.” I said, already dialing my secretary’s number as I stepped. If we were to get in touch with a judge

Chapter: The man from my one-night stand Chapter 4:Sienna’s POV “I didn’t do anything! I didn’t kill Jace!” I yelled for what felt like an eternity but they didn’t listen to me. I was cuffed to the table, the prosecutor questioning me.“Did you see Jace Wright, Sienna?” He asked, he and his partner.“Yes, yes I did.” God, I was about to run insane. I couldn’t be locked up. “When was the last time you saw him?”“Yesterday,” I answered with a sprawled hand.“Good, now we are made to believe that Mr. Jace Wright is your ex——““A shitty one!” I chipped in. They nodded, “a shitty one you said, now miss sienna tell us, why did you visit your ex again?”“Because he kept calling my phone after I caught him fucking my friend. I walked out quietly but the asshole would not leave me alone. I blocked his line but he always found a way to get to me. Yesterday I learned that my mother was sick and then he called me the second time that evening. I was angry, so I took my father’s bat and went to his apartment…..”“Right, hold it right

Chapter: My one-way ticket out.Chapter 3:Greyson’s POV “This is the fifth publication in one month, don’t they have anything better?” My secretary threw the newspaper on the table as he walked into my office, all cladded in suits.I sighed and rubbed down on my temples. “What are we going to do, Greyson? With these things swarming the internet, we don’t have cases aside from some child juvie cases. We don’t have time on our side. It’s only a matter of time before we become lawyers in the murky waters of clients.”His fear was palpable, though I wouldn’t show it. Three months ago my identity had gone down into the drain. My name was on the cover of every news headline and print. Not in the manner I liked.One major case had sullied my reputation, said I was having an affair with the jury and that was how I won all the cases in town.It wasn’t my fault all the other attorneys were incompetent. Now when they saw an opportunity to bring me down, they swarmed around like bees.Based on the attorney's rule, I couldn’t

Chapter: I'm arrested for Jace’s death.Chapter 2:Sienna’s POV I knew I was my father’s daughter. An offspring from him. We were both short-tempered, dangerous, and reckless.When I learnt of this I tried earnestly to not be him, not work in his shadow, but sometimes my father’s spirit snapped into me and I lost every sense of reasoning.In a hot ball of fury, I’d thrashed Jace’s house, destroyed his gadgets, and landed a punch squarely to his face. “Why can’t you just leave me alone!” I’d yelled at him and he’d chased after me still.I was so angry at the world. All the fury from my father hitting me, taking my money, and using me every time as his punching bag rolled out without a stop. He lost a bet and vented it on me, got drunk, and vented on me. Why did I always get to be used like a rag, why? And Jace did that as well. With this anger searing inside of me, I’d destroyed Jace’s house with the bat. I had just wanted revenge, to get back at the world for once. If only I had known. After venting, I went back home, I

Chapter: An Art friend Chapter 5 Leilani’s pov I watched as his jaw tightened. I know that by now he must have seen my present, I’d moved him down to the 7th floor. “It looks like it,” he forced out a smile, his eyes traveled to Nicholas and he held back a snarl that was pulling by the corner of his lips. “Sorry about your office,” I let go Nicholas and pulled a very convincing apologetic gaze. “I know it’s hard, when I purchased the shares it was already on the market. I don’t mean any harm or malice towards you. I hope we will be able to work and commute together.” My voice was soft like velvet, and I made sure to maintain an eye level stare as well as ease. It was easier than I’d anticipated. The confidence came off easy the moment I allowed myself to slip into Daphne. The cool and soft side of me. “Just a moment,” Nicholas kissed me by the cheeks as he strutted away. When I turned back to Cormac he was glaring at him. “Mr. Bass.” I called his attention and he reverted his eyes back to me. Unexp

Chapter: She made him look like failure.Chapter 4: She made him look like failure.Cormac’s povI watched her stop, but not completely. She was hesitant by a step before she continued down the hallway, her acquaintance with him.“Sir,” my assistant, Luke, rushed to my side. “You have another appointment.”It was hard to tear my eyes from Leil…no, Daphne. I didn’t spend my life with her to mistake her for someone else because of three years apart. It was her.I was so sure of that, but as I stared down at her as she made her way to her car, a black Lamborghini truck, I could almost swear that it was a different person. Her grace, elegance and even aura was so different. Loss of memory wouldn’t alter that, would it?Daphne was more poise, graceful, like she was raised from birth to be an administrator, like she was brought up with money. Which was a stark contrast to the Leilani that I knew. Leilani was impulsive, little aura, but I loved her anyways, she was reckless and a people’s pleaser , a hard mix. It was why we’d plan

Chapter: He never made it to the wedding Chapter 3: 3 years laterLeilani’s POV “You got this, Leilani.” I shook my head, trying to veer off the anxiety that came with being back.It’s been three years since I stepped foot into New York City. The city where my heart and life was shattered beyond repair. However, now that I have returned I would take my rightful place and claim that which was mine. In tears and blood I would.My ride for the night sparkled before me and my brother who saved my ass three years ago stepped out from the black Porsche car and waved at me. “Welcome back, sister.” Coleus grinned at me.He opened the car door for me like a gentleman. “How does it feel to be back in the fucking best city in the world!” He hyped.Rolling my eyes I guided my three year old daughter into the car. “It is not the best city.” I corrected him. New York was beautiful, no doubt, filled with high life and parties but it wasn’t the best.“Yeah well, it’s in the list of the best cities.” He answered as he slipped into the dri

Chapter: Pregnant for the man that left me on the altar Chapter 2:Leilani’s POV The first thing I heard was the beeping of a sound. It continued repeatedly in a horizontal pattern that I was forced to peel my eyes open to snap the machine shut.Blinking, I was initially blinded by the brightness of the light. Was I in heaven? I thought. Was this what heaven looked like? That means the scriptures were correct. The beeping sound continued causing me to snap my neck to my side, I regretted the action almost immediately as pain shot throughout my body.As my eyes slowly adjusted to the room, the first thing I spotted was the white roof, the drips connected in my veins, the oxygen mask and a monitor beside me beeping.Where was I? I strained my eyes. Here definitely didn't look like the heaven I had heard of.The sound of the door creaking open made me widen my eyes as my neck could not move.A man I suspected to be the doctor walked in, “hello there,” he smiled, coming up to where I lay immobile on the small bed. I wanted to move but it wa

Stopping, my gaze filtered the room, my veil draped over my face as I saw my husband-to-be standing on the altar with a bride that wasn't me.What’s happening? I thought as I craned my neck to take a look around.My knees buckled. My eyes dashed around the ... .small crowd of people present, gawking at me and whispering in indistinct mumble. They were no friends from work, my teammates were nowhere to be found.Everything was out of place. It wasn’t at all what we had planned. The hall was spinning and I held the arm of a chair for support. I watched as Cormac smiled and lifted the veil over her head and this time I felt the oxygen sucked out of me.
