The Blind Billionaire's Heart
From nurse to bride, Elara Jones never imagined her life would take such a dramatic turn. Desperate to escape her crushing debt, she accepts a job as the live-in nurse for Xander Blackbourne:, a billionaire CEO left blind and bitter after a tragic accident. But when Xander’s brother proposes a shocking solution to stabilize the family empire—a contract marriage—Elara finds herself trading her scrubs for a wedding ring.
Xander is used to being in control, but his blindness has left him vulnerable and angry. The last thing he wants is a marriage of convenience, especially to the stubborn nurse who refuses to coddle him. Yet, as the two are forced to navigate their new reality, the lines between duty and desire begin to blur.
In a world of opulence and power, Elara and Xander must confront their deepest fears and insecurities. Can a marriage built on necessity transform into something real, or will their pride and pasts keep them from finding love in the most unexpected place?

Chapter: 013Elara KingsThings had changed after the wedding.There were the subtle changes, like how the maids now attended to me instead of treating me as their equal.They would not even look me in the eye anymore, ensuring to keep their eye level below mine when I regarded them—although I did not miss the intensity of their glares when they thought I was not looking. As well as their whispers.There was something odd about it, like a bad joke that I was being left out of.A secret that everybody else knows except for me.And my husband?Xander detested me more than ever before.“What are you doing here?” he grunted as I stepped into the balcony that overlooked the city.Somehow, he always knew when I neared him without speaking a word.“To bring your medicine, I’m still your nurse remember?”His silence was all I needed to know that he was not amused, but since when did I care about that anyway.I moved closer to hand him his pills when he spoke.“You don’t know how it feels, do you?”Before

Chapter: 012Elara KingsThe wedding had been settled, along with the arrangements—none of which I took part in.A day was set, a venue was fixed, and even my dress was picked out—although I had to get measured for that one. Otherwise, I stayed out of everything else. That was my last show of pride.I would not help prepare for a wedding that I was forced to be a part of.That did not stall the progress, however, and the days seemed to pass by more quickly than I expected.Now, as I stood before the large full-length mirrors in the hotel room, examining myself in the wedding dress, I knew there was no way I would be getting out of this.“Fucking Blackbourne brothers.”The door creaked open behind me, accompanied by a voice to grab my attention.“Miss, the ceremony is starting.”My eyes narrowed into a sharp glare at the planner as she approached me, stopping in her tracks immediately.It didn’t take a genius to realize that I was displeased with the wedding.But I took a deep breath, swallowing my

Chapter: 011Elara Kings“I will get married to you,” I announced in a tight voice, forcefully holding myself from tearing up and blinking vigorously.No, I was not going to give Cassian the pleasure of seeing my tears, he was not going to see the effect that his words had on me.But that seemed to be futile as I was already giving in to his demands now, wasn’t it?He gave a satisfactory nod in return,“It is decided then, you will get married in a week and Elara will represent you at the company until you recover,” he declared with a final tone.My skin prickled as Xander sat on his chair with his face forward, giving away no expression whatsoever.The atmosphere in the room was sickening, and I could not handle it any longer.“Is that all?” I cut in sharply.He turned his gaze to me with a measured look before nodding his head, just once.One imperceptible nod was enough for me, it was all I needed to storm out of the room.The walk back to my room was a struggle as rage bubbled within me and I

Chapter: 010Xander Blackbourne“What are you talking about?”I had been lying in my room, staring into nothing but darkness and the endless void in my head, when the maid came to inform me that Cassian had arrived.I immediately located my wheelchair beside the bed and instructed the maid to wheel me down.On the way, I couldn’t help but wonder why Cassian hadn’t come straight up to see me like he usually did. If not for me, then what exactly was he here for?But just as the chair slowed to a stop around the corner, I heard his voice—his words snatching my attention instantly.“...marry my brother…”“Xander, you’re here,” he said, his tone shifting drastically from the one he had used with whoever else was in the room.“What are you talking about? What’s going on? And who are you talking to?” I asked, firing off questions without pause.At that moment, I was painfully reminded of how incapable my disability had made me feel.There was a pause, followed by the sound of feet shuffling across the fl

Chapter: 009Normally, I would make use of this opportunity to gloat, to even tease him a bit for trying to act tough earlier, but I could not bring myself to.Maybe it was the pained tone he used or the obvious embarrassment in his expression. Either way, I made my way back to his form on the bed, gazing down at him with an amused smile.“You want me to… scratch your itch?”His jaw ticked for a moment as he paused, but then he spoke, looking visibly pained to say the words:“Yes.”I nodded to myself before moving to the bedside table where I had prepared something for this exact situation. Of course, I had expected the cast to itch at one time or another, so I had been expecting this moment.I grabbed the cool anti-itch spray before moving back to him, sitting in a comfortable position where I could easily access the cast.But as soon as I touched it, he visibly flinched away from me. “What are you doing?” he spat in alarm.I rolled my eyes at his reaction. “The cast is itchy, or is it not?” I

Chapter: 008“How do you put up with him?” I asked with a distasteful expression, staring at the cook as I stood across from her at the countertop. The older woman was the only person that seemed interesting enough to engage in conversation with, among the house staff. She did not shake at the mention of the ‘master’ like the rest of the maids. For some reason, she looked… saddened at my question. “It’s what I get paid to do,” she answered shortly. I gave her a blank gaze, sensing that there was something more to it. With her skills, I’m sure that she could work anywhere else if she wanted. “Mr. Xander has not always been so…” “Infuriating?” I quickly supplied with raised eyebrows. She shook her head, pursing her lips. “I have worked in this house for a few years and he has not always been like this. He used to be much more considerate, but quiet. He never spoke to the staff except when he was making a request, always polite and kept to himself even after Mr. Blackborne’s death, but every
