LOGINHe left her at the altar. She survived it. Then she walked into his office." She stood at the altar in her wedding dress and waited. He never came. Daven did not just leave Sofia Wren on their wedding day. He left her with no home, no job, and a secret that could destroy everything her father had ever built. And the worst part? Her best friend Elena was right there beside him the whole time. Just when Sofia has nothing left, she walks into the office of Ethan Voss — cold, powerful, and completely unavoidable. He offers her a deal. Appear at his side for three months and he will protect her family and expose everyone who used her. It is just a contract. Nothing real. Except the more time Sofia spends in Ethan’s world, the harder it becomes to remember that. And when Daven finally sees what he threw away, it is already too late. Some men leave. Others show you exactly what you were worth all along.
View MoreThe SecretI got home shaken.I couldn’t sleep that night. I was staring at the ceiling with two messages still open on my phone screen. One was from Daven. The other was from an unknown number.The message from the number said: Do not meet Daven alone. He is not the one you should be afraid of now. I read these words over and over until they did not make sense anymore.I was wondering who was sending these messages. First it was one number, now another. Someone who knew about Ethan, someone who knew about the dinner that night. Someone who had been close enough to watch everything and was still hiding.I typed a message back to the number. I asked: Who are you?I waited for three minutes. Then I got a response: Someone who made the mistake of trusting the person too. We will talk soon, Not yet. Stay close to Voss.. Sofia do not tell Ethan about these messages.I put my phone face down on the bed. I was supposed to tell Ethan everything. Now I had a secret from him. I had signed a co
Let Them WatchThree days after I signed Ethans contract I moved out of Davens apartment.Chloe helped me pack like she said she would. We did it fast. Didn't talk much. I packed two bags of clothes, a box of books and a few things from the kitchen that were mine before he moved in. I left the rest. I didn't want anything that he had touched.My Aunt Rita's spare room became mine. It was small. The bed was too soft and the walls were thin.. It was all mine.Ethan's team had been in touch with me ever since. Claire sent me instructions, schedules and things I needed to know before my official appearance with Ethan. I read everything carefully. Said very little. I was good at being quiet and doing exactly what I was told. I have been doing it my whole life.On Thursday morning Claire called."There is dinner tonight. Mr Voss needs you to be there by seven. A car will come at six thirty.""Tonight?" I said. "That is. I don't have anything to wear to a dinner like that."There was a pause
The DealClaire took me to the floor and knocked on the double doors.Then she stepped aside. I walked in by myself.The man behind the desk did not look up away. He was reading something with one hand on the desk completely still. When he finally looked up his eyes went straight to my face. Stayed there. He did not smile. He did not stand up."Sit down Ms Wren."I sat down.Close he was harder to figure out than I thought. Not cold, exactly. More like a man who had decided a time ago that showing what he was thinking was a waste of time."I am sorry about your wedding " he said. Then he said, "I will not waste your time. You already know about the document. What you do not know yet is how far this goes."He turned a folder around. Pushed it across the desk.It was bank records. Eighteen months of money transfers. Money was moving between accounts. I saw Davens name on the one. Elenas name was on the second.Then I saw the name.My hand stopped moving on the page.It was someone I had
The Stranger With AnswersI barely slept.I spent the night at Aunt Ritas place on her couch because I could not go back to my apartment. I knew Elena would probably be there by morning moving her things in and making herself at home in the life I had built over the three years.Aunt Rita did not ask me questions. She just looked at me standing at her door with a bag of clothes I had grabbed from Chloes car. She just opened the door wider. Said come in. I loved her for that.I could not sleep. Thought about the message I got. About the papers. About my signature on a document I had never seen before.By eight thirty I was already outside the coffee shop on Birch Street. I almost did not go in. I stood outside for a minute telling myself this was a bad idea. I thought about all the surprises I had in the twenty four hours and I did not need any more.Then I thought about Elenas voice. I remembered what she said: “By the time she figures it out it will be too late”. That made me go insi
