VENUS

The airport was quiet in that way only wealth could afford. No crowds. No boarding calls buzzing through loudspeakers. Just the low hum of engines and the soft echo of footsteps on polished floors. The kind of silence that wrapped around you like velvet. Private. Controlled. Powerful.

Aaron’s jet waited on the tarmac like it had nowhere else to be. Like the sky belonged to him.

Sabine was already there, sharp in her tailored blazer, phone pressed to her ear. Connor stood beside her, eyes fixed on her like she was the sun and he’d just noticed how warm she was. She spotted me the second I stepped out of the sleek black car, her smile bright and immediate.

Gianna stood near the stairs, the breeze catching her curls, oversized sunglasses hiding whatever wicked thoughts danced in her head. The last time I boarded one of Aaron’s jets, I was barely conscious, held upright b drowsiness. Rome felt like a lifetime ago.

I smiled at the memory.

Aaron moved beside me, one hand tucked into h

  • Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Boss    Chapter 95

    VENUSLondon had become a dream these past few days, wrapped in silk mornings, chaotic laughter, and the clink of teacups against delicate saucers. And it was a shame, really, that we’d be leaving in less than three days. Time moved too fast, too damn fast. I wouldn't say I wasn’t excited to see Aaron again, but something inside me whispered that the clock was ticking louder than usual.Speaking of him... he hadn’t texted me since this morning.I’d sent several messages. Nothing dramatic. Just small check-ins, a meme or two Gianna forced me to forward, a picture of Sabine looking like a Bond villain in oversized sunglasses. Normally, he’d have replied with a sarcastic comment, or a dry remark that secretly made me smile.But today? Silence.Sabine and Gianna tried to convince me he was just busy, some crisis with one of the subsidiaries, or maybe brooding over the Empire State Building like a modern-day Dracula but I had a nagging feeling. The kind that claws quietly at your spine unt

  • Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Boss    Chapter 94

    AARONThe silence in the office was short-lived.Not even an hour after Ashford left, and I was still standing at the window, staring out over the skyline, trying to process what he’d just said.Sister.He said Venus was his sister.My wife—contractual or not—was the missing sibling of a powerful man I didn’t trust, didn’t like, and now had to consider family by extension.“Jesus,” I muttered, pressing my palm to the glass.Below, the city carried on: traffic weaving through stone arteries, people bustling with purpose, unaware that the axis of my world had just cracked.Connor hadn’t said much after Ashford left. He stood with arms crossed, face unreadable—but I knew that look. It was the one he wore before a hostile takeover. The one he kept when people lied straight to his face in court. Calculating. Cold. Focused.“You believe him?” I asked, finally.Connor’s gaze flicked to mine. “I believe he believes it. Whether it’s true or not... that’s what we’ll find out.”DNA. Proof.Ashf

  • Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Boss    Chapter 93

    AARONThe silence in my office was rare and for once, welcome.No ringing phones. No back-to-back meetings. No crisis clawing at my attention. Just the distant hum of New York City outside, muffled by the thick glass of the penthouse windows. The world below was alive, pulsing and urgent, but in here, for a breath of a moment, it felt like time had stopped.I leaned back in my chair, phone in hand, scrolling through messages I had already read twice, maybe three times. It was ridiculous. Obsessive. But I didn’t care.The last message from Venus sat like warmth in my palm, buzzing under my skin.VENUS: We’re going fabric hunting again. Gianna nearly committed murder in front of a cashmere wall. It was glorious. Also: I didn’t buy anything today. Aren’t you proud? 😌Not that she ever spends my money. I saw the card I gave her laying on my table.ME: That depends. Did you at least threaten to?VENUS: Sabine nearly tackled a vendor over gold thread. I did my part by eating three macaron

  • Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Boss    Chapter 92

    VENUSLondon was… golden.Not in a literal sense—not like Aaron’s penthouse at sunset or the warm gleam of the necklace I still hadn’t taken off—but in a way that settled in your bones. The kind of golden that made you exhale deeper. Softer. Like the world had finally eased its grip on your throat.We’d spent the last few days in a whirlwind: fabric warehouses, artisan showrooms, networking events so polished they practically glowed. Gianna called it “social climbing with sequins.” Sabine called it “war prep.”I called it magic.Because for once… I wasn’t surviving.I was living.Even with the ever-present security detail trailing behind us, I didn’t mind. For the first time, they didn’t feel like shackles. They felt like protection. Like someone, somewhere, cared enough to keep me safe.Sabine’s brand wasn’t just an idea anymore. It was becoming something tangible. Real. Every fitting, every carefully chosen textile, every private preview, it all brought her vision closer to life. An

  • Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Boss    Chapter 91

    AARONThe city hummed beneath me, but all I could hear was the noise in my own head.That wasn’t normal.My mind usually operated like a machine structured, strategic and silent. But lately? It felt like a battlefield. Logic at war with emotion. Control strangling instinct. And always... her. Venus. Like a whisper beneath my skin I couldn’t shut off.I leaned against the glass wall of my office, the skyline stretching wide, lit like temptation. Below, Manhattan pulsed with its usual rhythm: cyclists cutting through lanes, overworked suits gripping coffee, eyes on their next meeting. To anyone else, it was just another Monday morning.To me, it felt like the first move in a war I hadn’t declared yet.My phone buzzed.I turned back to my desk. The contracts. The board memos. The risk reports. All neatly stacked chaos. But somewhere in the middle of it all, something darker was creeping in. Quiet. Steady. Like rot under gold.I wasn’t the type to ignore red flags.But Caroline, Richard,

  • Contract Marriage With My Billionaire Boss    Chapter 90

    VENUSLondon was loud in a different way.Not the car horns and rushed chaos of New York, the kind that wrapped around your throat and made it hard to breathe. No, this city hummed with old power. Stone walls and stories buried beneath centuries of cobblestones. It whispered instead of screamed.And somehow… that made it harder to drown things out.I stood barefoot on the balcony of the villa—Aaron’s villa, I’d found out earlier—and cradled a mug of something too sweet. The kind of drink Gianna made when she didn’t know what to say, just that you needed warmth.The robe I wore wasn’t mine. It was too soft, too expensive, too him. And the breeze that kissed my skin only made the silence feel more intrusive.Gianna had disappeared inside a few minutes ago, muttering about serums and sleep and “not pouting over your emotionally constipated billionaire.”I should’ve laughed.But I didn’t.Because I could still feel him.The press of Aaron’s fingers against the back of my neck.The slow, d
