“It’s not a drastic step. You’re witty, fun to be with, and the se* is mind-blowing. So why not? It’s the only way to keep our moms happy, right?” I gave him a nervous smile, hoping he wouldn’t see through me. Yes, I was nervous. Who wouldn’t be when asked such a direct question?

It was the only convincing answer I could come up with.

“Are you sure you aren’t in love with me?” he chuckled.

“Aren’t you overreacting now? Why would I be in love with you?” I scoffed, although I wasn’t so sure now. Was this love? No, I didn’t think so.

He smiled, loving my reaction. “Just joking, Daniella.” He drove through the gates of an iconic architectural masterpiece in Manhattan's most sought-after residential neighborhood. The name engraved on the entranceway of the luxurious condominium read Elysium Hudson Towers! With a private porte-cochère and a landscaped garden complex spanning five towers, this place was grander than the one he took me to a few days back.

  • A Deal With The Devil   Book 2: Chapter Fifty-Two – To Santorini 

    Daniella “I wish we didn’t have to go back to the university for our final assessment. I want to get married and live here with all of you,” said Elena with a pout. She was the youngest among us, with a month left to graduate. I smiled at her enthusiasm. “It’s just a month, right? Study hard and you’ll sail through.”She grinned at me, bursting with excitement. “One month is so long! When is your wedding, Dani? I don’t want to miss it.” “When we return from Greece. It’ll be a quiet church wedding.” Julia nodded. “Yes, Aunt Sarah is unwell. It’s necessary to get her treated first.” “Yes. Once she heals completely, we’ll have a lavish celebration.” Drake ushered us out. “Brynne is here with Lucien. Don’t you want to meet her?”We trooped into Drake’s mom’s apartment to enjoy a lavish dinner with all. Brynne introduced the children, Leonardo, Lucas, and Liliana, who had accepted her as their biological mom. “Now, it finally looks like we’re going to a destination wedding!” said Br

  • A Deal With The Devil   Book 2: Chapter Fifty-One – In Love? 

    Drake“When did you promise my mom? How do I know nothing about this?” I knew the answer before she could say it. Was it at the Hudson Valley Club? Maybe that explained the change in her attitude towards me. She gave me a hesitant look and turned away. “On Brynne’s wedding day, when I met your mom for the first time. She didn’t want you to know about it.”I frowned and turned to face her. “Why did you make fake promises? You could have turned her down.” She looked upset. “I couldn’t turn her down. Why would I make fake promises? Not everyone is like you.” She stormed away from the terrace to the great room. I rushed after her. Once inside, I grabbed her hand to stop her from fleeing. “We don’t need your pity. I’ll explain it to Mom.” I searched her face desperately. Why couldn’t she tell me why she agreed to be with me forever? I wanted her confession. Why couldn’t she tell me she liked me? Was it such a difficult thing to do? If she didn’t care, why else would she want to marry m

  • A Deal With The Devil   Book 2: Chapter Forty-Nine - Then Marry Me?

    Daniella Drake bought me a gorgeous blue dress and many others for the wedding. It was to compensate for staying away from me for so long. I bought him a matching pale blue dress shirt. We could coordinate later when we went out on a date. He treated me to an exotic dinner at the most sought-after restaurant in the mall. It was a lavish treat, and we returned home, loaded with shopping bags and sweet memories of our date. Drake followed me to my apartment even after my goodnight wishes. “What? Aren’t you going home?” I gaped at the guy, although my heart skipped a beat. My body reacted at the thought of picking up where we had left off.“No. I’m staying the night. We’ll go to my house tomorrow.” His eyes sparkled with desire, and I knew he was more excited than I was.I smacked my forehead, having forgotten to inform my mom about my plans. “Shit! I forgot to tell mom. Wait, I’ll talk to her.” I rushed out to inform Mom before she retired for the night. Apparently, Mom knew since t

  • A Deal With The Devil   Book 2: Chapter Forty-Eight – Missed You More

    Daniella Brynne called me the next evening to thank me for my help. She had cleared all her misunderstandings with Lucien and started afresh. “I’m so happy for you, Brynne. You deserve all the happiness in the world.” Brynne chuckled lightly. “Thanks, girl. So do you. When are you two getting hitched?” I didn’t want to burden her with my sob story over the phone now. Maybe later, when I met her, I could talk to her. “I’m heading to Greece next week. We’ll decide everything after that. I’ll update you.” I lay down, staring at the ceiling for a while. Despite the exhaustion, I couldn’t get a wink of sleep. Drake hadn’t called me even once since I returned from Hudson Valley. Was his mom unwell? I felt guilty for not taking an update. Picking up the phone, I stared at his number for a few minutes. Why did I miss him so much? Why did I wait for his call every second, only to be met with disappointment? It was obvious, he didn’t miss me. Maybe he would call me when he had to meet hi

  • A Deal With The Devil   Book 2: Chapter Forty-Seven – What About Me And Julia? 

    DaniellaAs I pulled on my clothes, I was in a strange dilemma. How could I tell him about my discussion with his mom? She had extracted a promise from me: I had promised her I would never leave him. What if I told him about my decision to stick to my promise? Would he mock me? I wasn’t dying to marry him, but I couldn’t turn his mom down. I had to give her my word. And Daniella Pierce never backed out of a promise. “I’m confused, Drake. I can’t hurt your mom. If you can’t marry me, then stop this charade right away before things go too far.” The magic was lost. He sighed in defeat and pulled on his clothes. “Things have gone out of my hands, Daniella. I can’t stop without hurting her.” He couldn’t meet my eyes and lay down on his side with a frown on his face. “Then?” I waited for him to spell it out. Was it such a difficult thing to do?He shrugged and closed his eyes. “Then nothing. Go to sleep. We can decide after the Greece trip.” “I can’t face her again if we aren’t gettin
