The former fiancée appeared at the charity auction like she still owned the place.

Her name was Victoria Lang. Tall, blonde, the kind of polished beauty that looked expensive even in photographs. She had been engaged to Sebastian for eleven months before the relationship ended in a very public, very cold statement from Vale Industries. Nora had read the old articles the night after she signed the contract. She had not expected the woman to walk into the ballroom wearing red

  • Screwed Into Forever [Forbidden Collection]   BOOK 20 : The Devil You Invite: Chapter 1: The Man Who Never Smiles

    Elena Marlow’s heels clicked too loudly against the marble floor of the private elevator. She hated that sound. It made her feel small, announced, like she was already performing for whatever cameras watched this building. The air smelled of expensive wood polish and something colder underneath—old money and newer blood.She had rehearsed the words on the drive over. Keep it short. Keep it hard. Don’t beg.The elevator opened onto a floor that felt more like a private club than an office. Dim lighting. A single long corridor. At the end of it, a door stood open.Rafael Andrade did not rise when she walked in.He sat behind a desk of black stone, sleeves rolled to the forearms, watching her the way a man watches a storm he already knows the path of. Dark hair pushed back. Mouth set in a line that looked permanent. The rumors said he never smiled. Looking at him now, Elena believed every one of them.“Miss Marlow.” His voice was low, almost conversational. “You’re late.”“Traffic.” She

  • Screwed Into Forever [Forbidden Collection]   10: No Expiration

    **Chapter 10: No Expiration**Nora left the city three days later.She packed one suitcase, closed out the stipend account, and transferred every remaining cent Sebastian had given her into a separate fund for her mother’s continued care. Then she boarded a train north with no destination beyond *away*. The security detail followed as far as the station. After that she was alone.The first week was silence and bad coffee and the particular ache of missing someone she was not supposed to have wanted. She found a short-term sublet above a bookstore in a town small enough that no one cared about Vale Industries. She took a temporary job cataloguing inventory because it required nothing from her except accuracy. At night she lay awake and replayed the way Sebastian had said *please* like it cost him something.She did not contact him. He did not contact her.On the nineteenth day the corporate story broke the way he had promised it would. Hos

    The call came at 6:14 a.m.Sebastian answered on the second ring, voice already alert. Nora watched him from the bed, sheet pulled over her bare chest, as the color drained from his face. He listened for a long time without speaking. When he finally hung up he sat on the edge of the mattress with his back to her, elbows on his knees.“They leaked the contract,” he said.Nora sat up. “What?”“Someone sent the original agreement to three board members and a journalist. The version with the payment terms. The duration. The clause about no emotional entanglement.” His voice was flat. “They’re spinning it as proof that I’m unstable enough to buy a relationship. The vote has been moved up. Seventy-two hours.”She processed that in silence. The contract she had signed in his office. The one that made her look like a paid escort and him like a man who couldn’t get a woman any other way.“Victoria,” she said.“Almost ce

  • Screwed Into Forever [Forbidden Collection]   8: Chosen

    Sebastian’s apartment was nothing like she expected.Nora had imagined glass and steel and furniture chosen by someone paid to make wealth look effortless. Instead the penthouse felt lived-in. Low lighting. Books left open on the coffee table. A half-finished glass of water on the kitchen counter. The city glittered beyond the windows, but the space itself was quiet.He had brought her here after the auction without asking. She had not objected.The door closed behind them. Sebastian shrugged off his jacket and looked at her for a long moment, something unguarded moving through his expression.“I meant what I said,” he told her. “I’m done pretending.”Nora set her clutch on the entry table. Her body still hummed from the bathroom, from the way he had fucked her like a claim and then looked at her like she mattered. “The contract—”“Can burn for all I care.” He stepped closer. “I want you here because you want to be here

She had been engaged to Sebastian for eleven months before the relationship ended in a very public, very cold statement from Vale Industries. Nora had read the old articles the night after she signed the contract. She had not expected the woman to walk into the ballroom wearing red and smile like she knew exactly where to press.Sebastian’s hand tightened on Nora’s waist the second Victoria approached.“Sebastian,” Victoria said, voice warm enough to be a performance. “You look well. And this must be the new arrangement.” Her eyes moved over Nora with deliberate assessment. “She’s pretty. Temporary suits you.”Nora felt the insult land cleanly. She kept her expression neutral because that was what the contract required. No public disagreements.

  • Screwed Into Forever [Forbidden Collection]   6: After

    Nora woke up alone on the couch with a blanket over her and the dull, satisfying ache between her legs that meant the night before had not been a fever dream.Sebastian had cleaned her up. That part she remembered in fragments—warm washcloth, quiet instructions to stay still, the press of his mouth against her temple before he told her to sleep. She did not remember him leaving.There was a glass of water on the coffee table and a folded note in his handwriting.*Car will pick you up at six. Event is black-tie. Wear the green dress. No underwear.**—S*No greeting. No apology. No mention of the way he had fucked her against the door until she came so hard she saw white.Nora stared at the note until the words blurred. Then she got up, showered, and tried to pretend her body didn’t still feel claimed.She spent the day failing at normal things. Emails went unanswered. She burned toast. Every time she sat down sh
