Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 51: ECHOES OF THE STORM
The space inside the Maybach fell into a frozen silence, completely cut off from the chaos and frenzied camera flashes fading behind them. The car glided smoothly through the misty city night, heading straight toward the penthouse.Alma kept her eyes glued to the blurred streaks of streetlights receding outside the window. She dug her fingers tightly into the premium leather seat, her nails sinking in until her knuckles turned white. The filthy mud slung from that reporter's mouth earlier, along with the words "about to die," still pierced her ears like sharp thorns. Her shoulders trembled slightly; her hospitalized father had been dragged in as a tool to humiliate and attack her in public.The crisp, cold scent of cedarwood from the man beside her drifted into her every breath, enveloping her in a way that was both familiar and overwhelming."Why are you sitting so far away from me? Afraid I'll eat you alive?" Aiden broke the silence with a lazy, deep tone. Leaning back against the s

"Tonight, the camera she secretly installed will record every shred of evidence proving that Edna proactively drugged and offered herself to a complete stranger. Trying to use that to blacken Power Group's name? She dug her own grave."With that, Aiden raised an eyebrow at Alma, the corner of his lips curving into an arrogant smirk. Alma bit her lip, the coldness from her palms seeming to spread quickly into her veins. She secretly shuddered at the ruthlessness and the profound foresight of the man before her. He was not just neutralizing a threat; he was turning Edna into a pathetic laughingstock in a farce of her own directing. From beginning to end, Conal and Edna were merely chess pieces dancing in the palm of his hand.Noticing her unusual silence, Aiden straightened his posture, his deep, dark eyes narrowing slightly to study her. Decisively thrusting one hand into his trousers pocket, he dropped his voice to a thick, raspy baritone:"What is the meaning of that look? Do you fin
Bound By The CEO's Deal Chapter 49: The Puppeteer Behind the Velvet Curtain
Aiden’s deep, muffled shout pierced the narrow space, slamming into the iron door before gradually dissipating, swallowed by the smooth jazz music drifting through the cracked door of room 2026 just next door. His chest heaved, his scorching breath fanning straight across Alma’s pale face. The intense pressure of his scrutinizing gaze left her borderline breathless.Alma turned her face away, her lips pressed firmly together. She stubbornly weaponized her silence to withstand the wrath of the man before her, covertly trying to read whether he had betrayed the agreement between them."Alma, look at me." Aiden’s long fingers dug into her shoulders, forcing her to face his dark eyes, which had narrowed dangerously. "You knew about it since yesterday, kept it to yourself, and then sneaked out here in the dead of night... Do you really think I would break my word for a woman like Edna? Do you have no trust in me at all?""Trust?" Alma’s cornered pride finally erupted. She snapped her head
Bound By The CEO's Deal Chapter 48: Possession in the Shadows
The thick darkness of the emergency exit swallowed Alma whole. The pungent stench of leather mixed with heavy cigarette smoke besieged her senses. Alma thrashed frantically, scraping her boot heels hard against the cement floor, desperate to wrench herself free from the ironclad embrace pinning her body down. Her breath was stifled beneath a massive palm, causing her vision to blur.In her panic, her five fingers slipped quickly into her coat pocket, brushing against the cold metal hilt of a small dagger. Without a moment's hesitation, Alma whipped the knife out and stabbed blindly backward.But just as the sharp blade carved a chilling arc through the air, a low, familiar sigh brushed past her ear:"Calm down, Alma. It’s me."The voice shot through her spine like an electric current, instantly freezing her entire body. The knife stopped dead in its tracks, a mere few centimeters from her opponent's chest. The heat radiating from the sturdy chest behind pressed flush against her back,
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 47: THE TRAP BEHIND THE DOOR
The man’s powerful heartbeat drummed steadily from behind, casting a wave of warm heat against Alma’s slender back. She lay perfectly still, her chest tightening as she held her breath until a sharp throb pulsed in her temples. Suddenly, the firm chest pressed against her back shifted. Aiden’s long eyelashes flickered, and his deep, dark eyes opened.The moment consciousness flooded back, Aiden’s pupils contracted. He realized his arm was wrapped fully around Alma’s waist, pulling her so tightly into his embrace that their bathrobes were tangled together. The bolster pillow meant to divide their boundaries since last night had been tossed to the foot of the bed at some point. The primal urge of possession that came with lingering sleep made him instinctively tighten his grip for a fleeting second. The scent of dew-kissed wildflowers from her hair drifted into his nose, sinking deep into his mind.How long had it been since he last slept this deeply? His agonizing condition and the rel

"Alma!"A sharp snap of fingers right in front of her face yanked Alma back to reality. She flinched, her pupils dilating. Aiden was already standing right there, leaning in slightly, his deep, dark eyes locked onto her as he let out a frustrated sigh."Where did your mind wander off to? I’m standing right here, and you have the nerve to ignore me and think about someone else? Did you even hear a single word I said?"Alma’s heart skipped a beat. She forced her facial muscles to relax, squeezing out a faint smile as she nodded."I heard you. The wind is just freezing out here; it made me a little dizzy. I know what kind of person Edna is. I’m not thinking about her anymore. I trust you."Before his piercing gaze could dissect her expression, Alma quickly changed the subject. "But what about Conal? He wants me to steal the European project bidding proposal tonight."Aiden’s brow furrowed, a flash of pure disgust crossing his face. “Just ignore him. A piece of trash like that isn't worth
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 5: THE SURVIVAL GAME
Once again, the room fell into a bone-chilling silence. Just as Alma managed to catch enough breath to speak, Aiden—still with his back to her—spoke first, his cold voice cutting off any chance of her finding her words.“I’ve changed my mind.”Aiden turned around slowly. He brushed past her as if s
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 4: A SILENT PROPOSAL
The private office of the head of the Power Group on the 88th floor was submerged in a silence so heavy it felt suffocating. Aiden stood there, his tall silhouette obscuring the dying rays of the setting sun as they flickered against the floor-to-ceiling glass walls. After a long moment, he slowly

Aiden averted his gaze from the blue signal on the dashboard and tossed his phone onto the oak desk in frustration. The dull thud echoed through the silent room, marking the final snapping point of his patience. He sank into the high-end leather chair, taking a deep breath to suppress the searing p
Bound By The CEO's Deal CHAPTER 2: The Unexpected Variable
For the past week, New York had felt to Aiden like a chessboard where he was slowly losing his final pawns. He had been working relentlessly—not to close a trillion-dollar merger, but to hunt for a "worthy" woman. Someone to shoulder the heavy burden of bearing an heir to the Power Group empire bef
