The passing days felt like a blur, with Adrian’s shadow haunting every word and fleeting gaze. But it wasn’t just the threat of him that weighed on me anymore.it was the constant battle of trusting Jake, of trying to make sense of his actions. I’m scared to find out more truths about the man i signed a contract with.

Our relationship had become a careful dance, a fragile agreement resting on pieces of the truth. He shielded me as best he could, but there was always something guarded in his gaze, holding me back.

Even so, it didn’t stop him from being there when I needed him most. The late-night meetings, the hours of security monitoring, the constant reassurance.he was reliable, protective. And yet, there was this invisible wall between us.

I couldn’t help but wonder if that wall was there for my safety or his own.

Today, I decided to take matters into my own hands. Jake had warned me against doing anything reckless, but the only way to truly understand what we were up against wa

  • A night with the twin billionaire    No Turning Back

    I sat motionless on the couch, my heart still racing from the scene that had just unfolded. Jake had just announced—out of nowhere—that we were having a grand wedding. A real one. Not just a legal contract signed in private, but an elaborate event in front of everyone who mattered in high society. I exhaled sharply, rubbing my palms together . Jake was up to something, that much was obvious. He wasn’t the type to make a move without a calculated reason. But what was it? Was it just to prove Liam wrong? Or was there something deeper at play? I heard footsteps descending the stairs. Jake reappeared, sleeves still rolled up, looking completely unbothered as if he hadn’t just dropped a bombshell that turned my world upside down. “You’re thinking too hard,” he said, smirking. I glared at him. “You just announced our wedding, Jake.” “And?” He shrugged, casually taking a seat across from me. “We’re already married. What’s the big deal?” “The big deal?” I repeated in disbelief.

  • A night with the twin billionaire    A Grand Illusion

    Days went by and we were at peace at least for this period.I woke up the next day to the soft rays of sunlight coming through the curtains, casting a golden glow across the room. It had been a while since I started sleeping in Jake’s room, though we still had separate beds. Yet, no matter how much space was between us, something about this arrangement felt… different. I sat up slowly, rubbing the sleep from my eyes, when a soft knock came at the door. “Come in,” I called, still stretching and yawning.Jake stepped inside, dressed in a white shirt with the top buttons undone, his sleeves rolled up just enough to reveal his forearms. He looked effortlessly put together, but there was something else in his expression—I couldn’t read or place it . “Morning,” he greeted casually, heading toward the closet. “Morning,” I mumbled. I studied him suspiciously. “Why do I feel like you’re up to something?” Jake smirked. “Because I am.” I opened my mouth to ask what, but a familiar v

  • A night with the twin billionaire    Getting closer

    The warmth of Jake’s hand in mine sent a strange sense of calm through me. It felt so safe and real. Not like an act or something forced, but natural as if this was where I was meant to be. Jake exhaled slowly, his grip tightening just slightly before he let go, his fingers lingering for a second longer than necessary. He ran a hand through his hair, sighing. “You should get some sleep,” he said, his voice softer now. I bit my lip. “You too.” He gave a small tired smiles and then nodded his head . “I will. Eventually.He stood up, but before he could turn to leave, I found myself speaking again. “Jake?” He stopped, looking down at me. I hesitated. “Do you really think they will come after me again?” His expression darkened slightly, but he crouched down beside me, resting his arms on his knees. “I don’t know. But I’m not taking any risks.” There was something about the way he said it, it felt so certain, so protective that it made my heart skip a beat. I swallowed. “

    Just calm down and relax Sophy, it might not be so serious. Lia said with a smile on her face. The ride home from the hospital was quiet. My mind kept replaying Jake’s words “We need to talk”.I couldn’t shake the voice out of my head. I kept thinking of it while biting my finger nails.Lia glanced at me from the passenger seat, noticing my silence. "Are you okay?" I nodded, but my stomach churned with uncertainty. "Yeah, just wondering what Jake wants to talk about." She smirked. "Maybe he wants another kiss." I shot her a look. "Lia." "What? Just saying!" She laughed. "Look, don’t overthink it. You said things are different between you two, right? Maybe he just wants to talk about the two of you since you haven’t said anything much since the kiss.Maybe. But something about his tone made me think otherwise. When we pulled up to the mansion, I exhaled, preparing myself for whatever was coming. "I’ll see you later?" Lia nodded. "Text me, okay? And if he proposes for real,

    Can I have a hug Li…before I could complete my word she gave me a tight hug which made me feel like I was revived once again.Uhuum… “Lia what would you love to take? I’m sorry I didn’t bother to offer you anything” I said while letting out a sigh.I gave her some ice tea for the warm weather.. hey babe won’t you spill it? How was your birthday celebration? Lia asked to I know I was supposed to be with you for your birthday but Jake called and said he would love to handle it all, and I later got busy at work…it’s like the universe knew my boss would ask for my help and made Jake take over the birthday. So tell me how was it?I smiled.. well it was pretty great I said trying to hide how happy I felt but Lia caught on. Tell me babe what happened between you guys..you’re blushing.“We kissed” I said before she could go any further with her long talks. You did what? Did you just say kiss?
