The knock on Lena’s apartment door felt louder than it had any right to be, like the world itself was watching me. My hands trembled slightly as I pressed the buzzer, the TMZ notification on my phone burning a hole in my palm.

“Billionaire Noah Thorne’s Mystery Fiancée?”

it screamed. My reflection in the elevator mirrors a messy ponytail, dark circles under my hazel eyes, and a panic-stricken expression.

looked like someone I didn’t even know.

When Lena swung the door open, she froze for a second, taking in my shabby appearance. “Scarlett! You look… insane. And why are you trending?” Her brown curls bounced as she ushered me inside.

I collapsed onto her sofa, my bag dropping to the floor with a thud.

“It’s… complicated,” I admitted, rubbing my temples.

“Noah Thorne, yes, the Noah Thorne you've heard about… he wants me to marry him. He gave me a contract for a one year court marriage, everything legal. I wouldn't have accepted it but my family, my dad just had a heart attack. Every

  • DEBT OF DESIRE    Chapter 28: Becoming The Sexy Female Boss

    I couldn't sleep well. I tossed and rolled on the bed with nervousness.Plus my phone won’t stop buzzing because of Emails, notifications, messages and mentions.Apparently, mandatory means panic at LinCorp.I sit up in bed with my hair a mess, brain still half asleep, and scroll hrough the chaos. The ladies asking about dress codes while the techies asked about Event logistics or whatever it means. Security confirmations and PR teams asking for photos. Assistants booking fittings. I obviously walked into a new world I had to struggle to navigate. It would be a cute story if Noah could help but I don't even want it, we may be close but it doesn't erase everything. All this for a party I asked for.Noah is already dressed when I step into the kitchen. Crisp shirt and calm expression Like any other morning“You could’ve warned me,” I say, pouring coffee aggressively.“I did,” he replies. “Last night.”“i said party, not corporate circus.”He takes a sip of his own coffee. “Same thi

  • DEBT OF DESIRE    Chapter 27: Spending His Money

    I don’t knock.I just walk straight into Noah’s office like I own the place because apparently, today, I actually own my billionaire husband. He's bought me a building for my company start up, provided the funds for my party and also for shopping. And before I forget, the iPhone too.If I was a random lady I would believe that he loved me. He looks up from his desk, tie loosened, sleeves rolled up, that same unreadable expression on his face. The one that makes it impossible to tell whether he’s thinking about stock prices, murder, or me.“Did you mean it?”He blinks once. “Mean what?”I close the door behind me and cross my arms. “Don’t do that. You know exactly what I’m talking about.”He leans back in his chair, studying me like I’m a complicated equation. “i can't tell what you're feeling if you're upset or not, are you upset?”“No,” I say quickly. “I’m curious because there’s a difference.”A pause.Then he exhales slowly. “Scarlett—”“You said you couldn’t let me think there wa

  • DEBT OF DESIRE    Chapter 26: Playing My Billionaire Husband

    Not surprising, Noah cooked a hearty meal and I enjoyed it. After eating, I took the drugs like the doctor prescribed and soon Noah called me to his office.I went promptly and I was blown away by what he said:“I've acquired the building. What you need is an assistant, someone to put out ads, handle interviews and hire the best minds for your project”“Thanks Noah, that wasn't hard after all. How much did everything cost” I asked wanting to know more.“I'm not sure I should tell you but it's worth $10 million dollars. Everything has been paid for, we'll go check it out tomorrow morning” he said smugly “I guess being a maltreated billionaire's wife has it's perks too”“I already apologised Scarlett, no need to rub it in deep”“Why are you flaring up. That's your guilty conscience speaking there. Anyways, I'll just go tell my parents the news, we'll have a party to celebrate this big win in my life and it'll be the best thing ever”“No way I don't have any money to support that, parti

  • DEBT OF DESIRE    Chapter 25: Controlling My Billionaire Husband

    SCARLETT'S POV After leaving the hospital, the drive home was quiet except for mom saying how happy she was that I was safe now. When we arrived at the penthouse, or blackwood tower as Noah preferred calling it, my parents were wowed by it's beauty. I was happy they were happy but unhappy that I had come back here. “I just want to escape and leave everything behind” I thought to myself. Mom cooked for me and even attempted to feed me. The next hour she pushed dad on his wheelchair and the left blackwood tower. I was left alone with the man that almost killed me because of something petty. Not sure I could ever forgive him for it, thank heavens we were not really married. And he wasn't even at the hospital when I woke up. He doesn't have to love me but he doesn't also need to be wicked to me. He walked in saying how late he's going to the office today. Now I would tell him my rules, make it clear I wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for my dad's hospital bills. “Look Noah, you can

  • DEBT OF DESIRE    Chapter 24: Devil In A Suit

    NOAH'S POV:I was taking her apart bit by bit, showing her that she should not disrespect me for any reason. I was satisfied already with the results I've gotten so far, and I offered her a glass of water“Here, have a drink” I said. But she wasn't moving, and then she fell slowly to the ground. I was surprised and the only thing I could think of was what I had done to her and how I wouldn't forgive myself if anything happened to her. Her dad already has a health problem.I screamed “Wayne! Wayne! Get the car!” I turned to her “Scarlett, Scarlett wake up” I tapped her as roughly as her supple skin could allow.I lifted her on my arms and carried her outside. I put her in the backseat while Wayne drove as fast as he could. “Scarlett, please wake up,” I tried to wake her up again. “Faster Wayne, drive faster!!”12 minutes later I was rushing her through the nurses and I put her in a little bed. And rowed it on its wheels to the operating room. “Nurse what's happening to my wife”
