His Contract Mistress Tangled Desires
Aria woke with a start, her heart pounding. The silk sheets were twisted around her bare legs, and the lingering heat of Ethan’s body still clung to her skin. The night before had been a blur of desperate kisses and overwhelming pleasure, the kind that left her body sore and her soul conflicted.But he wasn’t in bed now.She sat up, brushing her tangled hair back, her eyes searching the dimly lit penthouse. The city lights streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting shadows across the room. She heard muffled voices—low, sharp, and male—coming from the living room.Aria’s stomach tightened. Ethan wasn’t alone.She quickly slipped into one of his shirts, buttoning only the middle buttons, and padded barefoot across the cool marble floor. The voices grew clearer.“…you think you can keep her hidden?” a voice she recognized hissed. Damon.Her heart froze. Ethan’s rival.“You’re overstepping,” Ethan replied, his tone cold and lethal. “Stay away from her, Damon. She’s none of you
His Contract Mistress The First Strike
The morning paper hit Ethan’s desk before dawn, its headline screaming across the glossy front page.“BLACKWOOD EXPOSED: BILLIONAIRE CEO’S DARK DESIRES REVEALED”Aria froze as she read the words, her blood running cold. Beneath the headline were blurred, grainy images—Ethan bound, half-naked, the rival’s body tangled with his. They weren’t as graphic as the photos sent privately, but they were enough to feed the tabloids, enough to stir whispers that would ripple through Wall Street like poison.Her hands shook as she whispered, “Oh my God… Ethan.”But Ethan’s face was unreadable. He tossed the paper onto the desk and leaned back in his chair, his jaw tight, his eyes like ice.“She’s made her move,” he said flatly. “And now it’s my turn.”The FalloutBy noon, the scandal was everywhere. Stock tickers crawled with drops in Blackwood International shares. Investors pulled out of deals. Board members demanded explanations.And through it all, Ethan stood tall, cold, commanding. But Aria
His Contract Mistress An Alliance of Shadows
The city glittered below Ethan’s penthouse, skyscrapers stabbing into the night sky. But inside, the air was heavy with tension.Aria curled against Ethan’s chest, tracing idle patterns across his skin. She wanted to believe his vow from the night before—that they could face the rival together. But the ache in her chest lingered, a shadow she couldn’t shake.“What if she finds more?” she whispered, almost afraid to break the silence.Ethan’s hand stilled in her hair. “Then I’ll destroy it. I don’t care how many ghosts she digs up, Aria. My past can’t touch me anymore.”But even as he spoke, his jaw was tight, his body coiled like a predator bracing for attack.The Rival’s MoveAt that very moment, across town, the rival sat in a dimly lit bar, her crimson lips curving into a satisfied smile.Opposite her sat a man in his late thirties, sharp suit, sharper eyes. His presence radiated danger—the kind of man who thrived in the shadows of New York’s business underworld.“Ethan Blackwood t
His Contract Mistress The Past Resurfaces
The night after Ethan had silenced her doubts with his body, Aria thought maybe, just maybe, she could breathe again. His words, his touch, his ruthless devotion—they had been enough to banish the rival’s poison, at least for a little while.But peace never lasted long in Ethan Blackwood’s world.The DeliveryThe next morning, a sleek black envelope arrived at their penthouse. No name, no return address.Ethan’s jaw clenched the second he saw it. He didn’t even need to open it to know where it came from.“Stay behind me,” he ordered Aria as he tore the flap.Inside were glossy photographs. Ethan. Younger. Shirtless. On a bed with the rival—bound, blindfolded, his wrists tied above his head. The angles were explicit, humiliating, undeniable.Aria’s stomach twisted, her breath catching in her throat. She tried to look away, but the images were already seared into her memory.The rival’s voice echoed in her head: Did he tell you about us? About what he made me do?Ethan crushed the photo
His Contract Mistress The Rival’s Game
The morning after the gala, Aria woke wrapped in Ethan’s arms, her wrists still tingling from the silk restraints, her body aching from the relentless passion he’d poured into her. For a fleeting moment, she felt invincible—untouchable.But that feeling shattered the second she unlocked her phone.Dozens of messages lit up her screen. Whispers. Photos. Headlines.Her heart dropped as she read the first one.“Billionaire CEO Ethan Black Seen in Heated Kiss at Gala—Who is the Mysterious Woman on His Arm?”Beneath the headline was a picture. Her. Aria.Her face was partially shadowed, but her identity wasn’t completely hidden. The rival had made sure of that.The ThreatBy the time she arrived at Ethan’s office later that day, Aria was shaking. She tossed the phone onto his desk.“She’s trying to destroy me,” she whispered. “She’s leaking things. She wants the world to know who I am—so they can tear me apart.”Ethan leaned back in his chair, calm but dangerous, like a predator in control
His Contract Mistress The Public Challenge
The gala shimmered with chandeliers, crystal glasses, and the hum of the city’s elite. Ethan’s arm rested securely around Aria’s waist as they entered the grand ballroom.She wore a sleek black gown that clung to every curve, her hair swept up to reveal the elegant line of her neck. Ethan had chosen the dress himself, and though she’d wanted to resist, she couldn’t deny the heat in his eyes when he looked at her.“You’ll stay close,” he murmured against her ear, voice smooth but edged with command. “Tonight, you’re mine. No wandering. No doubts.”Aria swallowed hard and nodded. The crowd of strangers was overwhelming, but Ethan’s presence grounded her—dominant, protective, intoxicating.For a moment, she felt untouchable.Until she saw her.The Rival’s EntranceThe rival swept into the gala like she owned it. Her crimson dress glittered beneath the lights, hugging every dangerous curve. She spotted Ethan instantly, her smile curling like a blade.Aria’s chest tightened.“Don’t,” Ethan
