LOGINElena never planned on marrying a stranger, especially not someone engaged to her sister. But when her sister disappears days before the wedding, Elena is forced into an arrangement she never agreed to, with a man she knew nothing about. Nathaniel Sinclair, billionaire heir with his dreamy looks and charming attitude is just as unenthusiastic about the situation as she is. Their marriage begins with distance, awkward silences and the quiet understanding that neither of them asked for this. But as days turn into weeks and forced proximity becomes a regular thing, Elena starts to wonder: what happens when two people trapped in an arrangement begin to fall for each other? It was never meant to be love. But love has a way of rewriting the rules.

The covers slipped down, revealing my bare legs, but I didn't care."Are you okay? Still feeling sick?" he asked.I shrugged, resting my head against his chest. My eyes caught the tiny ink lettering etched there and a smile spread across my face."I still can't believe you got my name tattooed." I teased, making him chuckle. "Beats the Mrs. Doub
Hazel walked up to me, a sheepish look on her face. I smiled down at her. “Is there anything you need, young lady?”She opened her palm to reveal a piece of wrapped candy. It looked similar to the ones I’d stuffed into the piñata earlier. The kids had gone crazy cracking it open, poor thing was probably in shambles somewhere on the lawn.I furrowed my brows. “You want me to open that for you?”She shook her head, grinning. “I kept it for you. Take it.”I chuckled, taking the candy from her damp fingers and slipping it into my pocket. “Thank you, Hazel.”She nodded, clearly pleased with herself before she skipped off, probably to rejoin the other kids.I watched her go, then turned to head toward the front porch. Debbie was there with a little boy, busy giving him a face painting. “Um, what exactly are you painting?” I asked, settling down beside her.She grimaced. “Spider-Man. Isn’t it obvious?”I looked at the boy’s face. The paint was so smudged I couldn’t tell where the webbing sta
I shot the pretty lady at the counter a smile as she handed me my card back. “Thank you so much.” I said, slipping it into my purse before I reached out for the medium-sized cake box she had set carefully on the counter. Inside lay a vanilla sponge cake with neat frosting letters spelling out 'Happy Birthday Adeline' on the surface. I was relieved that I had finally secured it in time for this afternoon’s party.I’d chosen this cute bakery tucked inside the city mall to make Adeline's birthday cake and I’d initially been worried that my order wouldn't be ready in time for the party. Thankfully they'd called me that morning to come pick it up and now I could finally cross it off my list. Beside me, Hazel stood quietly, her gaze fixed on the bustling crowd outside the bakery’s glass doors. “Are you okay, Hazel? Do you need me to carry you?” She pouted dramatically at me, shaking her head with vigor. I laughed at her reaction, grateful she wasn’t tired yet because carrying her al
We had dinner at six o’clock, not five. Roast beef with stir‑fried vegetables that I'd helped myself to more than everyone else. The food was good, better than I'd expected. And accompanied with the heavy silence in the dining room, I could enjoy it in peace. But the silence didn't last long though.“It’s been a while since we all had dinner together like this.” Dad said, reaching for his glass of water. He stared at us, almost expectanly, waiting for someone to respond. No one said a word. He continued. “Especially with Eleanor disappearing on us, dinners like this didn’t feel quite complete.”Eleanor let out an amused snort. “Didn’t think my absence would matter so much.”“Of course it did.” he said. “Your mother and I missed you dearly.”Eleanor and I exchanged a look across the table, the kind of look that said 'what the heck is going on here?' Our confusion mirrored each other’s perfectly.Mum cleared her throat, setting her fork down carefully, her gaze locked on her husband.
My face lit with a smile the moment I spotted the familiar figure waiting for us at the front steps as we pulled into the driveway and stepped out of the car.Daria’s face mirrored my excitement as she stepped forward, arms wide open. Her hug was warm and inviting. And I'd admit I did linger abit l
"You need help getting out?" Hazel shook her head firmly, her little hands already reaching for the door handle. With a determined tug, she pushed it open and stepped out of the car on her own. I couldn’t help but smile at her determination. Daria had been quite adamant about Hazel walking on
I fiddled with my hands on my lap, my fingers tapping against each other nervously. The silence inside the car felt heavier with each passing second.I wondered if I should just get out of my car, go into the building and check up on her myself. What was keeping her? Why was she taking so long?But
“Do you think she’s going to come?”I must have asked the same question ten times that day. My voice carried more nerves than I intended. Kaylor rolled her eyes so hard I thought they might get stuck.“You called her, didn’t you?” she asked flatly.I nodded, fiddling with my phone.“Then she’ll co
