CHRISTIAN POV

The numbers on the screen blurred into nothing. Voices droned around me, but all I could hear was the sound of my own thoughts hammering against my skull.

Whatever Elizabeth was hiding from me was eating me alive. I couldn’t think. Couldn’t breathe. Every time I looked at her, I saw it—the flicker in her eyes, the hesitation in her touch, the way she guarded her words as if every sentence carried a secret.

it was clawing at my mind, shredding my concentration until I couldn’t breathe without the question burning in my chest.

“Mr. Reed?” One of the executives cleared his throat, hesitating as though he’d already repeated himself twice. “Should we move forward with—”

“I asked for projections, not excuses,” I cut in sharply, but even I could hear it—the edge in my voice wasn’t business. It was personal. My men exchanged uneasy glances. They knew my focus wasn’t in the room.

    ELIZABETH POV I flopped onto the couch, hugging a pillow to my chest, staring at nothing in particular. My chest felt like it was carrying a secret too big for me, and the words just slipped out before I could stop them. “I think I’m in love with him,” I murmured into the empty air, my voice half-dreamy, half-panicked. Nana, who was folding laundry at the armchair across from me, didn’t even blink. She arched a brow like she’d been expecting this moment for weeks. “You think?” she said dryly. “Or you’re in love with him?” Heat rushed to my cheeks. “Why would you say that, Nana? You can’t even read my mind!” I snapped, even though she practically could sometimes. She scoffed, shaking her head as she set down a neatly folded shirt. “Elizabeth, please. Two weeks ago, I practically saw you touching yourself on—” “Stop, Nana!” I bolted upright, covering my ears as embarrassment stabbed through me. “Ugh, you’re not helping.” I cut her off before she could remind me how utte

  • Claimed by the billionaire    Tessa

    Christian POV She lied. I wanted to believe her. But there was something in the way her body stiffened when I asked, something too fast in her smile, too smooth in the way she said I was with Tessa. Elizabeth Harper couldn’t lie to save her life. And that’s how I found myself standing outside Tessa’s apartment the next day, my hand heavy against the door as I knocked. The moment Tessa opened the door, her face drained of color. Then she forced a nervous smile. “Please, I don’t want to lose my job again, Mr. Reed,” she blurted out, half-joking, half-pleading. “That depends,” I said evenly, my gaze pinning her in place. “If you tell me the truth. Was Elizabeth with you three days ago?” Her lips parted, her hand tightening on the doorframe. “Yes,” she said quickly. “We hung out, lost track of time. I swear I told her to go home before it got late, but she refused.” I studied her closely. I know a liar when I see one. I’ve dealt with too many of them—boardrooms, inves

  • Claimed by the billionaire    Home

    Elizabeth POV The moment I saw the car pull through the gates, my heart nearly leapt out of my chest. He was back. something inside me snapped. I didn’t think—I just ran. I didn’t even wait for the driver to stop before I flung open the door and ran outside, my feet bare against the cold stone steps. I didn’t care. My chest ached with how much I missed him, with how long the nights had stretched without him. “Christian!” His name tore from me the second I saw him, tall and sharp against the fading evening light. He looked like power wrapped in black—impossibly untouchable, impossibly mine. And then I was in his arms. His arms weren’t around me at first, but mine wrapped tight around his waist, desperate, clinging, as if I could hold him here forever. God, I’d missed him. Missed him so much it felt like my chest had been hollow these past few days, my breaths cut short without him near. And when he finally did pull me against him, his hand pressing into the sma

    CHRISTIAN POV And of course, the bastard was no one other than Adrian Lockwood. When I turned, Adrian Lockwood was cutting through the room, shoulders squared, his jaw locked like he wanted to break something. Preferably me. The audacity almost made me laugh. “Adrian.” My voice came out flat, bored, like I’d just spotted a stain on my suit. “Didn’t expect to see you here. Didn’t realize you had enough time on your hands to attend functions. Shouldn’t you be busy fighting that underage sex scandal case?” A muscle in his jaw jumped, and his grip tightened on the champagne flute like he might shatter it. all his life, Adrian Lockwood had only one obsession—me. Bringing me down, watching me crack. He wanted nothing more than to sit in that courtroom and stand as my father’s witness. To see me bleed. But I never gave him the chance. I cut him off at the knees before he could even open his mouth. Schemed, like I always did. And I won. Once, Adrian strutted through these roo

    CHRISTIAN POV If hell had a waiting room, it would look exactly like this: chandeliers too bright, champagne too warm, and people pretending they cared about “causes” while keeping one eye on their investments. “Smile, sir,” Daniel murmured at my side, his voice low enough to avoid the photographers. I shot him a look. “You flew across the ocean just to remind me I have teeth?” He smirked. “You did say you’d rather drag me here than Elizabeth. I’m honored.” He wasn’t wrong. If Elizabeth were here, she’d hate every second of this, the fake pleasantries, the staged speeches, the empty promises. The only part she tolerated was when I pulled her into the bathroom or some shadowed hallway and buried my dick inside her until she couldn’t remember where she was. At least then, the night served a purpose. Tonight, though? I was stuck with Daniel. Not nearly as satisfying. I moved through the crowd, shaking hands, nodding at faces I half remembered. A senator. A hedge fund sh
