(Samantha’s POV)

There’s a certain art to betrayal.

The trick is to always stay one step ahead, to make people think they’re the ones pulling the strings while you tighten the noose around their necks. That’s what I’d done with James and Armando, manipulating them both while feeding Ferro just enough information to keep him hungry.

But the thing about playing with fire is that it burns.

And tonight, I was about to get scorched.

The meeting was supposed to be routine—another dark, smoky room filled with Ferro’s cronies, another exchange of information that would leave me just a little richer and a little closer to untangling myself from this mess.

But the moment I stepped into the room, I knew something was wrong.

Ferro was already seated at the head of the table, his sharp suit impeccable, his cold eyes gleaming with something dangerously close to amusement. Beside him, James leaned back in his chair, his arms crossed and his expression unreadable.

“Gentlemen,” I said smoothly, stridi

  • Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy   The Face of the Enemy

    Olivia’s POV There was a numbness in my chest that I couldn’t shake. Not anger. Not fear. Just… disbelief. Luciana. Alive. Breathing. And standing beside the man who had ruined everything. I stared at the paused frame on my phone — her face frozen mid-smile. The same dimple on her left cheek. The same haunting eyes. But it wasn’t the Luciana I knew. This one looked… colder. Sharper. Almost unrecognizable beneath that smirk. I sat on the edge of the bed, my palms damp, my thoughts spiraling. She was supposed to be dead. And now, she was the enemy. I didn’t know what was real anymore — but I had to find out. No more waiting. No more trusting. No more falling for half-truths and unfinished confessions. I needed answers, and I would get them — even if it broke me. I stood, grabbed my coat, and turned just as the door swung open. Armando. His eyes locked onto mine instantly — like he’d already known what I was about to do. “Where are you going?” he asked, voic

  • Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy   Shattered trust

    Dual POV — Olivia & Armando Olivia’s POV I don’t know what betrayal feels like anymore. Is it rage? Numbness? The slow erosion of everything you believed in? Or is it the quiet voice in your head that whispers, “Of course. You should’ve known.” I stood in the hallway, arms crossed, the silence of the safehouse stretching around me like a storm about to break. I hadn’t told him yet. I wasn’t even sure how to. Dominic was asleep upstairs, sedated. Matteo was gone — allegedly running “errands.” But I wasn’t stupid. Not anymore. Not after all the lies. Not after Ferro. Not after Celeste. I held the flash drive in my hand — the one Celeste said was left behind by someone “who had been feeding Ferro all along.” And as soon as I plugged it into the laptop and watched the surveillance clips play… I saw him. In the shadows. Slipping a package to an unmarked courier near the shipping docks. Matteo. My stomach turned. I felt sick. Cold. Like everything I’d

  • Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy   The Domino effect

    Ferro’s POV ⸻ Control is not taken. It’s given—willingly, foolishly, by people who mistake trust for safety. I watched the city blink beneath me from the glass wall of my penthouse, one hand tucked into the pocket of my tailored slacks, the other swirling aged whiskey in a cut crystal glass. The sky was bruised with the last tint of twilight, and the world below moved like ants—clueless, obedient, disposable. They thought they’d won. They thought the heist was a victory. That pulling Dominic from my clutches and uncovering Project Vortex meant they’d stolen the crown. But I hadn’t built my empire on arrogance. I built it on patience. On anticipation. And this? This was the start of their undoing. Behind me, a wall-sized screen flickered to life. A forged news feed I’d curated to perfection played on a loop—slick visuals, carefully designed graphics, a solemn anchorwoman with the right touch of concern in her voice. “Breaking Report: Documents surface linking

  • Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy   The Heist

    Dual POV — Olivia & ArmandoOlivia’s POVThe night reeked of gasoline and gunpowder.I crouched low behind the rusted shell of a burnt-out car, my chest rising and falling with shallow, nervous breaths. From here, the compound looked like a fortress wrapped in shadow — cold walls, steel gates, motion-activated lights that scanned the field like a predator’s eye.Dominic was somewhere inside.Alive.Hopefully.I clutched the detonator tighter in my gloved hand, the edges of it biting into my palm. I could hear Armando’s voice in my earpiece — low, steady, commanding.“Three guards to the south. You’ll have a five-second window after I draw their fire. On my mark.”This was crazy.But what wasn’t, lately?Everything in my life had spiraled. Love. Betrayal. War. And now I was risking my neck to pull Dominic out of Ferro’s jaws, with the one man I couldn’t trust — but somehow couldn’t stop wanting either.“Mark,” Armando’s voice cut in sharply.I moved.I bolted across the open ground, he

  • Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy   Hearts Under Siege

    Olivia’s POV⸻I couldn’t sleep.The air felt too thick. The silence too loud. And my thoughts — they were a battlefield. One half of me wanted to run as far away from Armando as possible. The other? It wanted to crawl back into his arms and melt there, consequences be damned.I hated him.And I craved him.My body was a traitor. My heart? A mess.And yet… when I walked past his room that night, I paused. The door was slightly open. A sliver of golden light spilled out, warm and tempting.I didn’t mean to look in. I swear I didn’t. But something in me — something curious, desperate, starving — peeked.He was standing shirtless near the window, the light of the moon tracing the lines of his body.God.Every time I saw him like that, I forgot how to breathe. Broad shoulders. Sculpted chest. Those scars — a brutal history painted on perfect skin. His muscles flexed as he rolled his neck, and all I could think was: Why does he have to look like that?Why does he have to ruin me like this?

  • Betrayed By The Billionaire Playboy   The Hackers dilemma

    Dominic’s POV They say you get used to pain. That eventually, it numbs you — that if you’re beaten enough, your body learns to stop reacting. They’re wrong. Pain never gets easier. It just changes. It morphs into this twisted, crawling thing that lives under your skin, reminding you with every heartbeat that you’re not dead… yet. My wrists were raw. The ropes bit into my skin like they had teeth. Blood had dried on the side of my face, crusted and flaking. One of my eyes was swollen shut — Ferro’s men had done a fine job reminding me how breakable the human body could be. But my mind? That was mine. That was still standing. Barely. The door creaked open, slow and theatrical, like a scene from a movie I never auditioned for. And there he was — Ferro. Clean. Calm. Wearing that smug expression that made me want to lunge at him and bury my fists into his face, even if it cost me everything. He didn’t speak right away. Just walked in with his usual predator grace, the ki
