Mag-log inElowen Renshaw thought she had it all– a future with a man she sacrificed everything for. But betrayal struck her when her groom chose her half sister over her under the guise of a dying wish. Humiliated and broken, she made a vow never to be the victim again. Not until Ryan Sylvarn came into play with a proposal—"Marry me Gattina. Give Owen a taste of his medicine.” Ryan was a renowned playboy notorious for his acts, more still he was best friends with her ex. ……. "You knew I was drunk yet you still took advantage of me knowing I'm your best friend's fiancée." "Oh that." He carelessly dismissed it and dropped the file he was holding on the bed beside me. "I thought he's marrying your sister, why keep the title?” ……… Will Elowen and Ryan be able to stay within the terms of their contract marriage?

The words of the priest trailed as I lifted my eyes to Ryan's through the veil over my face, my eyes holding his in a lovestruck gaze, my lips threatening to betray the intensity of the gaze with a smile.It was finally here, a day long over due had finally come.One that had only been as an imagination to me, the only difference was that the dream starred a different groom, one that was not my destined half nor my significant other."I now pronounce you man and wife!" The little crowd of friends and family erupted in cheers, my hand instinctively reaching for Ryan's arm, locking him in place as we walked through the flowers descending from the sky.The reception hall was filled with the scent of lilies and laughter as I scanned my eyes over everything and everyone in t
ELOWEN"Has he been found?" I asked, pacing around the room, my head spinning from the events from the last past days."No ma'am." The police officer replied, clearing his throat slightly."Where could he be?" Ryan asked, slamming a hand down on the desk angrily."We have tried locating him for the past few weeks, his phone has been switched off, his house was confiscated, his company was completely brought down and no trace has been seen of him ever since." He explained, passing me a stack of documents.I paced back and forth in the small office of the commissioner, the sound of my heels clicking against the floor echoing like a clock counting down the seconds of my sanity. "A man doesn't just vanish into thin air when the entire city is looking for him!" The officer didn't flinch, he just sighed and leaned back in his chair, gesturing to the scattered stationary on his desk. He reached out and passed me a stack of documents that were clipped together, and I took them with shaking
OWEN"I'm coming!" I dragged my form off the ground, my legs feeling like lead, unable to effectively move them from the dinning room to the front door."Who is it?" I asked through the door, looking through the peep hole but there was no one behind it."What the fuck?" I cussed, walking back to the dinning room when I heard the ring again.I paused, turning around almost immediately. "Who the hell is that?!" I yelled, hauling the glass cup in my hand at the direction of the door."Mr Hill?!" Liam's voice came from behind the door, to my surprise."Liam?" "What are you doing here?" I called out to him as I headed for the door.I pulled the door open and grabbed Liam by the front of his shirt, dragging him inside with a strength I didn't know I still had, the paranoia was starting to eat me alive. I looked sideways into the street to make sure no one was following him, then I slammed the door shut and engaged every lock with a series of panic filled clicks. Liam stood in the middle
ELOWEN"Do you want her body cremated as well?" The doctor gestured for Lilith's water lodged body in a body suit."Mrs Hill had wanted an immediate cremation for Mrs. Elora as well." I paused, "How much was left to clear the bill for her hospital bills?" Ryan asked, putting an arm around me, his fingers slowly pulling me into him."This is the bill accumulated." He pulled out a piece of paper, handing it to Ryan."Can I wire it immediately?" He asked, letting go of me to collect the piece of paper from the doctor."Sure, come with me." The doctor said, turning to leave, gesturing for his office."Do you want to come along?" He asked, raising his hands to his shoulders. I nodded slightly, flashing him a toothless smile."I'm fine." I sniffed, wiping my face with my palm."I want him in jail, I want him gone completely." I said, my voice laced with bitterness and anger.Owen has broken the final straw, he had taken a lot from me, I wasn't going to let him get away with it, not with Li
RYAN"What do you want, Owen?" I asked as I stepped out to the balcony, looking down at him lowered to the ground."I'll hear him speak," I waved my hand to the security and they let him go reluctantly."You have five minutes." I said, taking slow steps down the stairs towards him."You were my bes
ELOWEN"You'd have to look beyond your heart and forgive her one way or another, Gattina." Ryan said, his voice low and laced with concern.Maybe he was right. Lilith had hurt me beyond words could heal but she was showing an effort to make things right."She's really remorseful and I'm sure she fe
RYAN "What do you mean it's not possible for me to pull out my investment?" I asked, my tone coming as a surprise to me."I'm only saying, if you were your investment back, the whole business crumbles as well and I thought..." Marcus trailed, his voice going low and gradually quiet."Do I look lik
OWEN"Is there nothing we can do?" I asked frantically, my face dripping with sweat and my hands trembling from the failure I had feared for many years coming to pass."I'm afraid not, sir." Liam said quickly, his eyes stuck on the screen before him."What do you mean you're afraid not?" I asked, a
