تسجيل الدخولOne night in Vegas is all it takes for Madison and Ethan to tie the knot, after an unplanned night filled with fun and laughter; their whole life becomes entwined. Madison has no idea what she’s getting herself involved with but can Ethan say the same? Ethan’s mum comes up with the brilliant idea; they should fake their relationship for six months, enough for Ethan to get the reigns of Maverick enterprises while Madison gets paid to cater for hers and her mum’s medical fee. Will the world realize it’s all pretense? Will Ethan’s father and the board members see that they’re being played? Will it work out for both Ethan and Madison as they planned or will emotions get involved?

Why are my mornings always like this? Why can’t I ever sleep peacefully?,
It feel like my brain contents were being ran through a meat grinder. Graphic? I know. I can feel the bright presence of the sun rays on my face, I must have forgotten to pull down the blinds yesterday, did I mention that my head was killing me? My demonic phone must think it’s at an audition with this enthusiastic performance it’s giving…Oh God, why won’t it shut up!!!
If I can get my sadistic phone and put it on silent, maybe I can get in another thirty minutes of sleep, I contemplated. Deciding to do just that I began to feel around for it…space, space, space, silky sheet, is that a feet?!! My eyes snap shot open, and immediately closed back;uhh, my head hurts… wait, did I just see a feet, curious I slowly peeped through an eye. Why am I staring at a feet?, those can’t be mine right?, I was never good at gymnastics and there’s no way my feet could be that close to my face, not to talk of how big they look right now.
Sitting up in bed- a big, soft, pillowy, silken sheeted bed, I came to certain realizations…
One, my bed is definitely not this big, couldn’t afford it even if I wanted one.
Two, silk sheets? I most definitely wouldn’t use an equivalent to my monthly rent on sheets.
Three, those are definitely not my feet, I can feel mine all the way down there, not to talk of the muscular back and the head full of hair I’m staring at just about now.
What the hell is going on here??!, Did I become a kidnapper over night??! No, there’s no way my 5’3 self would be able to drag not to talk of carry his at least 6’0, muscular self, wow…, those muscles look inviting.
Snap out of it Maddie!!! I began to actively search for my phone while trying not to wake the muscular work of art. Well of course, my phone had to be under the bed. Switching it on, I immediately saw the long list of messages, I have always been on the introverted side which left me having a total of one friend so why did this many people suddenly decide to take an interest in me.
I posted??
I posted!!!
I, Madison Beene, actually posted on my I*******m story, was someone impersonating me, was I dared? The only way to get answers was to go through the posts
Getting up to my feet, I realized I was wearing the long, red dinner dress Harper, my one and only friend persuaded me to buy for my sister’s wedding last year. Well, at least this proves nothing happened between I and the barefooted, muscular stranger.
Locating the bathroom, I dashed towards it, once in, I locked the door and sat at the edge of the incredibly white, gigantic tub that could fit minimum of five people- the stranger must be rich then.
Switching back on my phone, i searched for the first post and clicked on it only to see myself lick the stranger’s face, albeit it looked a little sexy…arrgh, I knew my crazy thoughts would possess me one day, I just never realized it would be this early, I was still three years away from thirty for God’s sake, I can’t believe I actually licked a stranger’s face and posted it for the world to see. Face palming, I moved on to the next, in this post I was in a jewelry store, I could only hope I didn’t rob anybody. The stranger then came into view, it looked like we were drunk, and picking out rings?? We were picking rings, I got him a simple gold band while he got me a round-cut diamond nestled in a platinum band. We both looked excited to be there, he then brought out a black card, I’ve only seen those once before in my life and it was by mistake, he paid. I exhaled the breath I didn’t know I was holding; we did not rob anyone, he paid.
Curious, I looked at my ring finger, lo and behold, there lies the ring. A fiery orb of light caught on the solitaire and its facets flashed like mirrors as I moved my hand. Dumbfounded, I clicked on the next post on my phone, just as I was already starting to piece together we were now at a chapel where we got married and kissed. Only I would get married and not remember anything even the kiss of my dreams which I must say looked so enticing right about now.
Scrolling further through my phone I saw comments and posts I was tagged in;
MOST ELIGIBLE BACHELOR OFF THE MARKET?
What’d they mean by most eligible, I mean he was handsome but “mostly eligible?”
CEO OF MAVERICK ENTERPRISES TIES THE KNOT.
Of course I couldn’t marry someone a little less influential, I had to marry a celebrity.
PLOY OR TRUE LOVE??!
Who in their right mind would have a wedding with the love of their life in Vegas? Oh My God, I’m going to be dragged so hard I’ll loose all my hair, I lamented, my anxiety was starting to creep in right about now.
BILLIONAIRE’S HEIR SECRET WEDDING?
Could it be called secret though if it was all over the internet?
Scrolling through the comments I could see that the dragging already even started, with the ladies calling me all sort of names, gold digger, slut, dwarf, and apparently it looked like I was going through mid-life crisis. What does it even mean to say someone was going through mid-life crisis? Have I always looked that way? Do I look it now? Probably, cause I was about to start hyperventilating right about now.
Suddenly, I heard foot steps coming towards the bathroom, a soft knock, then a deep, groggy voice, say, “Wife, are you in there?”
Madison’s POVWe stepped out into the hands of reporters, flashing lights and cameras were everywhere with various questions being thrown about…“Miss, Miss, is this a whirlwind romance or a well planned business merger?”“Should we be expecting a baby soon?”“How’s the family taking the news - are they trilled or suspicious?”“Madison would you say you’re in this just to better your lifestyle?” Tom and some other body guards I didn’t notice before were trying to clear a path for us to walk, at this point I was stuck to Ethan’s body like a magnet as I tried to steal a little out of the confidence he propelled off. Ethan stopped shortly to address the multitude “ A press conference will be held and all your questions will be answered guys, have a nice day.” We finally made it to where three SUV’s were packing and I was gently moved towards the one in the middle while the guards got in the other two. “To the airport,” Ethan instructed the driver.I relaxed back against the comfy leat
Mellisa’s POV I remember, I can remember everything!! It felt like I was underwater for so long only to finally surface, I was pacing on the tiled floor, my mind was racing and I couldn’t stay on one thought for more than a few seconds. “I got married!!” I laughed maniacally in my head for a few seconds, “I got married to a billionaire!!” This is why I should never be left alone with alcohol, infact why would anyone in their right senses tell me to let loose and have fun!! “I need to call my boss, right after I’m done panicking.” “Hey, relax” the deep, soft voice of Ethan said to my right. “Relax? Relax?? How are you so relaxed right now? Uggh, my head is killing me.” “I’ll get you some water and pain relief,” he said heading towards the door, after speaking to someone shortly there he returned back. “Who was that?” I asked. “ My bodyguard, Tom”Yes, of course he had a bodyguard, he’s the heir to the billion dollar company, Maverick Enterprises. No wonder, I’m being called names, o
Ethan’s POV We stepped into a fairly filled bar and sat on a aisle close to the bartender, who looked like he’s had a long night. Noticing us as we sat at the aisle he began approaching us, “Evening Sir, Miss, what can I get you both?” He asked. I turned towards Mellisa, “I know just the perfect drink, may I?” It didn’t look like she in any way trusted my judgment. “Just give it a trial, if you don’t finish it you get to dare me to do anything” Upon hearing that her eyes began to sparkle; she smiled then nodded. “Two Ardbeg scotches please,” I told the waiter. For someone that looked stressed he was quite fast with his services, I watched Mellisa take her first sip and turned to face me, “ Did you mean to serve me sadness in a martini glass.” I placed my right hand on my heart faking a wounded expression, “That’s a two hundred year old scotch.” “So it’s dead to social and emotional cues?” I couldn’t help myself, I burst into laughter with tears threatening to fall out of my eyes.

Madison’s POV“Wife, are you in there?”the voice said. Well, there goes my plan of trying to act like room service stocking up the bathroom, which now that I think about it, would not have worked considering the sparkly dress and all. My heart started pounding and I could feel my throat closing up, I’m going to throw up. What do I do? What do I do? I need to get it together, my mother did not raise a coward.Rising from the edge of the tub, I followed the breathing technique I use when situations like these arise, and it does more than you can imagine. I stay out of the spotlight and keep to myself yet, here I am!! I was starting to get worked up again… deep breath in,hold for five seconds, deep breath out and repeat. Now that it doesn’t feel like I’m going to die of an heart attack like my granny, Alicia, I took the few steps needed towards the door and unlocked it, inhaling another breath for confidence boost, I let the door open and stepped out. It all makes sense now…well not e
