I Married A Billionaire, Who Wanted Revenge!!! 31. A cold reminder...
ALEXANDER The suite became apparent to me before she was aware. Through the glass, I saw her, and even from a distance I could feel the tension repelling from her. Tensed and distracted, She stood by the window like she owned the storm, yet clearly caught in its pull.I stepped inside, knocking the door once. Immediately, silence wrapped us into a thick and hot sheet that felt impossible to navigate.“You’re late,” she snapped, her voice came sharper, yet betraying something else — relief, maybe, or the tiniest spark of hope?“And I had asked you not to go out alone.” I said, making her turn to face me. She wanted to say something, at least her slightly parted lips hinted that, but then, she didn’t, instead, she frowned. “I was bored.” She muttered. “I only went out for a bit of air.”I honestly wanted to snap, but that face—that bloody sad, innocent face stopped me. So—“You’ve managed without me,” I replied, my tone falling casual. But my eyes tracked her every movement sharply,

ALEXANDER The door closed behind me with a quiet click, and the echo of her voice lingered longer than it should have.Tempest… The name settled on my chest like a weight I hadn’t expected, even though I had given her this name, dragging the calm I prided myself on into a current of heat and calculation. I told myself it was a strategy. That every heartbeat she forced from me was a piece of a perfect plan. But the truth… the truth is always louder than the lies we tell ourselves…The city lay before me, a sparkling and boundless expanse. The skyline was mine to command, to manipulate, to bend it however I wanted, and yet, for the first time in a long while, my gaze kept flickering back to her. Elowen… I could almost see her— hands trembling over that damned phone, eyes wide with that blend of fear and desire that always unhinged me. Over the years, I had built walls, rules, and systems — yet she somehow found a way to pierce them without even informing me…I slid into the passenge

ELOWEN I f**king hated the shiver that ran down my spine just with those words of his. “Don’t start.” I hissed, but it sounded more like a purr than a warning. He tilted his head, studying me with that same patient intensity that could peel away every wall I built. “Start what?”“This,” I snapped. “This… whatever you think you’re doing.”He smiled, it was slow and deliberate. “You mean, pretending?”I stared at him. Caught back and stupid. He reached out again, his fingers grazing the collar of my robe. “And here I thought you wanted to keep pretending.” “Stop—” My breath caught in my throat.He did stop — but only to step closer, close enough that I could see the faint shadow of stubble along his jaw, smell the clean, dark scent of him. His voice dropped, all teasing gone. “Relax, Elowen. I’m not going to touch you.”“Good,” I said, except my voice betrayed me. It came out as a lie which I definitely did not want.“Unless,” he added quietly, “you ask me to.”And damn! For a mome

ELOWEN When I woke up the next morning, the initial sight that greeted me was not the sunlight, but rather his presence… Alexander Veyrek, he was still there.He sat by the window, legs crossed, his sleeves rolled up to his forearms, he was speaking into his phone in that low, unhurried voice that could make even a death threat sound like a promise. The early light spilled across his face, outlining the strong edge of his jaw, and glistening softly on his stubble. There was a calm arrogance in the way he leaned back…I blinked, what the hell is wrong with me!?My brain is still trying to reconcile the sight of him — the same man who had practically moved into my hotel suite without permission, acting like he owned the place.Well, technically he does own it, but I am focusing on the room, okay? For now, it's mine! “…No, shift the numbers by noon. If the press asks, say it was a joint decision,” he commanded someone over the call, gaining my sole attention. His tone was precise, ras

ELOWEN I stood there stunned, staring right at the phone screen. It was a text from Adrian. My fingers trembled as I swiped the text and as soon as I did, my breath left my lungs.For a moment, I couldn’t move, my world just tilted. A message with an image attached. It's a photo — me and Alexander at the gala, his hand at my back, our eyes locked. Underneath it, Adrian’s message:‘You can play pretend all you want, darling. But you’ll always be mine.’ My stomach twisted at those words. Initially, they might sound romantic, but they're not. It felt more like a threat, a warning. The air around me turned heavy, and I exhaled a sharp breath. “Something wrong?” Alexander asked quietly, his eyes watching me intently. I tried to hide the screen, but his gaze was too sharp — he noticed instantly. In two strides, he was in front of me. I didn’t resist when he took the phone gently from my hand.His eyes scanned the text. The change in his expression was subtle. A tightening around the

ELOWEN The silence was the loudest thing in the room after Alexander disappeared into the night. And I, like a useless piece of sh*t, stood frozen by the balcony doors, fingers still clutching the edge of the curtain where he had vanished. The city lights glittered far below in the distance, while my heartbeat pounded like a warning in my ears. ‘Mine.’—That word, that damned word had rolled out from his tongue as though it's the biggest truth of life, and it still hadn’t left me. It echoed in the hollow of my idiotic brain, mocking the very air I breathed. Damn you Veyrek! I dragged a shaky breath and forced myself to move, pacing the length of the suite. He said someone was watching. Maybe Adrian’s man, or probably we're just paranoid. Either way, he had vanished into the dark like some assassin while I stood here, trembling between fear and fury. I poured myself a glass of water, my hands trembling so much the liquid sloshed over the rim. My throat was too dry to sw
