Sweet Submission: Love Me, Mr. Billionaire
Skylar McLair’s world falls apart when her father is caught in a scandal that leaves him bankrupt and in a coma.
Just when she needs him most, her boyfriend Ethan turns cold and proposes to a wealthy heiress- claiming Skylar is no longer worthy to be his wife. Instead, he offers her something cruel: become his mistress, and he’ll save her family's status and reputation. After all, he is the heir to the powerful Buckman Corporation.
But fate steps in… wearing Cole Buckman’s name.
Cole, Ethan’s distant and mysterious stepbrother- and the true heir to the Buckman empire, comes into Skylar’s life through a contract marriage she never expected. To the world, he’s ruthless and unreadable. But to Skylar, he becomes something else entirely.
Every time she stumbles, he’s right there- steady hands catching her before she falls. And whenever trouble finds her, he shows up without fail, like he’s been watching over her all along.
She begins to think he’s simply a good man caught in the middle of a family war.
What she doesn’t see… is that Cole has been drawing her in from the very beginning.
Step by step.
And by the time Skylar realizes she’s fallen into his trap- one built not of lies, but of desire and something else…her heart may already be his.
As for Ethan?
Let’s just say… he never saw it coming.

Chapter: DriftColeI pulled into the driveway and slowly turned off the ignition. My fingers rested on the wheel for a while before I let go and leaned back against the seat. I heaved a deep sigh, my eyes heavy with exhaustion. The night had stretched out longer than I had planned. Too long, and draining.I reached into my jacket pocket, pulled out my phone, and dialed Xavier. He picked up on the second ring."Xavier," I said, voice low but sharp. "Any updates yet about the investigation?""No. Nothing concrete yet," Xavier replied. "We’re still tracing—"I scowled, running a hand down my face. "That’s not good enough. I need something by the end of the week. I don’t care what you have to do, just get me something! I want to wrap this up as soon as possible.""Understood."I hung up. I didn’t have the energy for more excuses. This investigation had dragged on far too long. I needed to be sure Amelia was safe—only then could I step away, let her live her life while I lived mine. That was the only wa

Chapter: Letting the Cat Out of the BagSkylarI woke up with a sharp pain in my stomach. At first, I didn’t move—I just lay there, my eyes still adjusting to the darkness around me. The pain was dull at first, but then it came again—this time sharper. I pressed a hand over my belly, trying to breathe through it.Ugh.I should’ve known this would happen. Skipping lunch and dinner wasn’t smart—especially not with my condition. The doctor had once explained clearly that women with gastritis need regular meals or their stomach reacts badly. I had ignored that. I was just too tired earlier and thought sleeping it off would be better.“Dang it,” I muttered under my breath.I slowly tried to sit upright, hoping that shifting positions might ease the ache. Maybe if I could just get to the medicine cabinet... I moved an inch.Wrong move.A sudden jolt of pain shot through me like lightning. I couldn't help it—I cried out.The sound must have woken Cole.He stirred beside me and then shot up, fully awake in an instant.“Skylar? What

Chapter: Blood and SmokeUnknown POV “Arrrgggghhhhhh!!!!!!!”The basement echoed with screams.Sharp, brutal, soul-wrenching screams.Each lash that landed sent a wet, snapping sound across the room, followed by a guttural cry for mercy. I could hear him begging, gasping, choking on pain as the thick whip split his back. The sour scent of blood clung thickly to the air, mixed with sweat and a faint stench of fear.And still, I kept walking. I slowly descended the iron stairs, and reached the final step and stepped into the dimly lit underground space.As soon as I entered, silence rippled through the room. Every man present—my men—lowered their heads."Boss."They all said it together, their voices unified in respect.A chair was dragged into the center, facing the tortured fool who hung from chains, suspended mid-air, his body a map of fresh welts and bruises. I sat down slowly, my suit neat and untouched by the filth around me. I pulled out my silver case, slid a cigar between my lips, and lit it with a fl

Chapter: Watching Him LeaveCole A few weeks had passed since the last meeting with the board concerning our Asia market expansion. And here I was again—sitting through another boardroom meeting, staring at a sleek screen filled with pie charts and projections about the expansion. The voices of the directors filled the room. “…We saw a six percent growth in the East Asian segment, particularly Korea and Malaysia,” someone said. I nodded faintly, pretending to follow. In truth, my mind was split. A part of me was present, listening, keeping a straight face… but another part—maybe the more restless part—was still circling the same thought I’d had for weeks: the man behind Eclipse Club. The real owner. The one who had bought Amelia and had been using her at Eclipse Club before I was able to finally rescue her. It was infuriating how he kept slipping through our fingers. Every direction we turned led to a dead end. It was as though he was made of smoke and shadows—untouchable. The club had been officially regi

Chapter: Scent of DoubtSkylar I stared at the screen in front of me in excitement. The last few lines of detail on the design were finally complete. After weeks of back-and-forth, long nights, and countless changes, I had finally reached the finish line. I leaned back in my chair and smiled to myself. This one had taken everything out of me. The colors, the layout, the typography—every single thing. I’d poured my heart into it, and now, looking at the final version, I felt proud. Really proud. I suddenly heard a knock on my office. “Skylar?” a familiar voice said. I turned. “Tara.” She stepped in, arms crossed loosely, a soft smile on her face. “How’s work going?” “Good,” I replied with a grin. “Actually, I just wrapped up the final touches on the design I’ve been working on.” I turned my laptop a bit, giving her a peek at the screen. Her eyes widened. “Wow, this is stunning. Skylar, you’re really doing something here.” She looked from the design to me, and said with an encouraging smile. “Keep

Chapter: A Gentle TugCole“We’re here,” I said, pulling the car to a smooth stop at the parking lot.Skylar turned toward me. “Thanks for the ride,” she said as she reached for the door handle.“Wait,” I said, leaning closer. “A kiss first. I need fuel to run today.”She chuckled, shaking her head in that amused way she often did when she thought I was being extra.“You’re unbelievable.”Still, she leaned toward me and pressed her lips against mine. But I caught her head gently, drawing her in deeper. Her scent filled my lungs, and her soft lips against mine made the world feel still for just a moment. When I let her go, she was breathless, a little flustered.“Have a great day,” I whispered, brushing a thumb over her cheek.She gave me a playful glare and opened the door. “You too, Mr. Fuel.”I watched her wave as she headed into her office building. My smile lingered until the glass doors swallowed her from view. The moment she disappeared, I frowned.I grabbed my phone and removed it from “Do Not Distu

Chapter: Where I BelongREGINA I made my way to Marcy’s room shortly after seeing Lionel. She looked so small lying there, her face pale but serene. Her hands rested on her swollen belly protectively, even in her sleep. My heart clenched at the sight of her. The sister I had thought I’d lost forever was here again, and despite everything we had endured, there was hope. Then I thought of the tragedy that had befallen her—of Silas and everything else. Victor had indeed taken more than we could imagine. “Marcy,” I whispered as I approached her bed. Her eyes fluttered open, groggy but quickly filling with recognition. “Regina?” she murmured, her voice hoarse. I nodded, tears already welling up. “It’s me.” She eased into a smile. “I just knew you could do it. I just knew you could. You’ve always been just too strong.” I laughed as I planted a kiss on her forehead. “How’s the b

Chapter: A New Dawn
LIONEL The first thing I noticed was the sterile smell of antiseptic. My body felt heavy, but the softness of the hospital bed was comforting. Slowly, I blinked my eyes open. Regina’s face came into focus. Her hair was slightly disheveled, dark circles shadowed her eyes, but she was the most beautiful sight I’d ever seen. Her hand rested on mine, her touch grounding me. “Lionel,” she whispered, her voice filled with relief and tenderness. Tears welled up in her eyes as she leaned closer. “You’re awake.” I managed a weak smile. “Hey…” Before I could say more, Grandpa appeared by her side, his face a mixture of concern and relief. Ryker and Gwen were there too, their expressions lighter than I’d seen in days. “You gave us quite the scare, kid,” Grandpa said, his gruff tone unable to mask the emotion in his voice. “Victor?” I rasped, the memories of the fight f

Chapter: ShowdownREGINA “No,” I whispered, cradling Lionel closer. His breathing was shallow, his usually vibrant eyes clouded with pain. Victor stood a few paces away, lowering his weapon with a chilling casualness. “You should've just cooperated with the plan, Regina.” He chuckled disdainfully. “You and that pathetic excuse of an alpha.” “Don’t you dare!” Marcy’s voice cut through the tension, and I turned just in time to see her charging at Victor. “Marcy, no!” I screamed, but it was too late. Victor swatted her away like she was nothing, sending her flying into the side of the truck. She hit the metal with a sickening thud, collapsing in a heap. My mouth dropped open, my scream coming uncontrollably. “Stay down, girl,” Victor sneered, turning his attention back to me. I froze, my arms tightening protectively around Lionel. Every instinct screamed at me to fight, but my b

Chapter: Let’s End ThisREGINA I and Marcy had been together in the room, waiting, when we heard the sounds of the war going on outside the building. Lionel was here. At first, a feeling of joy and assurance rushed to me, but almost immediately, a certain panic rushed through me when we had waited for quite long enough and Lionel was yet to show up. “Are you sure he’s still okay?” Marcy asked, the fear in her voice evident. “He is okay.” I replied with all certainty. “Nothing could happen to Lionel!” Then the men suddenly stormed in, barking orders. Marcy and I rose hastily and followed the men down the corridors, all the way to the back of the warehouse. Soon, we were out in the dark and there was nothing but the dim lights of the moon to guide us through. I could still hear the faint buzz of war on the other far end of the building. Axel led the group of Victor’s men, his expression unreadable, but

Chapter: Final ConfrontationLIONEL His taunting words drove me mad, but I refused to give him the satisfaction of seeing me fall apart. I clenched my jaw, focusing on my breathing as I adjusted my stance, preparing for the next round. But Victor wasn’t done. He was playing with me, like a predator toying with its prey. He danced just out of reach, circling me, his every movement calculated, precise. “You know, Lionel,” he began. “I’ve always admired your strength. But strength doesn’t mean anything when it’s built on lies. Your so-called ‘perfect love’ with Regina? It’s a joke. You’re both weak, just like your parents were. Too sentimental. Too tied down by your pathetic little bond.” His words struck harder than any blow he could throw, reminding me of all the mistakes I’d made, of all the things I’d failed to protect. The past kept clawing at me, refusing to let go. I roared in fury, charging toward him once more, but this time, I cou

Chapter: AmbushLIONEL All I needed was a location and just that, Arturo had provided. Another site, another holding of Victor’s. Even if it meant going to a hundred locations this same night, as long as I was not dead, I was going to set my eyes on Regina and there was nothing that could be done to change that. As we drew closer to the warehouse where Regina was supposedly held, we knew better than to just storm our way in. We needed to maintain a low profile. The warehouse loomed ahead, its corrugated metal walls dull and rusted under the dim glow of the moonlight. A faint chill ran down my spine as I scanned the perimeter. This was the place. I could feel it in my gut. Regina was inside, and I wasn’t leaving without her. Ryker crouched beside me, his face set in grim determination. Arturo and his men from the Eric Circle pack fanned out behind us, their movements silent and purposeful. Each of them carried
