**Nadia**

The door opened and Lisette walked straight in like she owned the place. She took one look at me standing in the living room with my untouched coffee and her face tightened with worry.

"Nadia, what the hell is happening to you?" she asked, voice sharp but full of real concern.

I set the cup down slowly. "Nothing. I am fine."

"You are not fine." She dropped her bag on the couch and stepped closer. "You are different. Quieter. Like you are slowly disappearing into him. He is consumin

  • MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE   Chapter 60: Caged Fury

    **Nadia**Dominic gave the order that morning. Full lockdown. No leaving the penthouse without armed escort. Every exit covered. Every movement tracked. I stood in the living room and felt the walls press in. My skin crawled with the need to move. To breathe fresh air. To step outside without eyes on me.Dominic watched me from across the room. His face stayed hard. Unapologetic. He crossed his arms and waited for the fight he knew was coming.I paced the floor. My bare feet slapped against the cool tiles. The frustration built fast in my chest. I had fought for my power with him. It felt like chains all over again."I am not a prisoner," I said. My voice came out sharp.Dominic did not flinch. "You are if it keeps you alive."The words landed heavy. I stopped pacing. Heat rushed through me. Not fear. Not tears. Raw anger mixed with the deep ache of being trapped again. I had grown. I had set boundaries that made him kneel. But Garrett's photo through the window had changed everythin

  • MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE   Chapter 59: Eyes In The Glass

    **Nadia**A knock sounded at the penthouse door early that morning.I opened my eyes slowly. Dominic was already up and moving. His body tensed beside me before the second knock came. He pulled on pants fast and headed to the door. I sat up in bed. The sheets felt cool against my bare skin.Raffael stood in the hallway with a plain brown package in his hands. His face looked tight. No smile. No greeting. He handed it over without a word.Dominic took the package. His fingers closed around it hard. He shut the door and locked it. Then he walked back to the bedroom. I watched him. His shoulders stayed rigid.He set the package on the bed between us. Plain wrapping. No return address. Just our names printed in black marker.I reached for it first. My fingers brushed the paper. It felt ordinary. Harmless. But something in the air shifted. Dominic watched me close. His eyes stayed dark.I tore the wrapping open. Inside was a single photo. Glossy. Recent.My own face stared back at me. I la

    **Nadia**My phone buzzed hard on the nightstand and ripped me out of sleep.I grabbed it fast. Dominic's arm stayed heavy across my waist. His skin felt warm against mine. The screen lit up with notification after notification. I opened the first post and my stomach dropped.Garrett stared back from the photo. His eyes were red and wild. His tie hung loose. He stood outside his old office building like everything had been taken from him. The caption hit me straight in the chest. "Fired. Broke. Ruined. All because of that gold digging bitch Nadia who sank her claws into Dominic Marcello. She destroyed my life."I sat up quick. The sheets slid down my bare legs. Dominic woke right away. His hand found my thigh and squeezed."Show me," he said. His voice sounded rough from sleep.I handed him the phone. More posts loaded fast. Comments poured in under Garrett's rant. People called me every ugly name. They said I deserved payback. Death threats mixed with the hate. Sharp words promised

  • MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE   Chapter 57: Secret Flames

    **Nadia**My eyes caught it the second we walked into the bridal suite.Lisette and Raffael stood too close again. Her shoulder brushed his arm while she reached for a swatch of fabric. He leaned down to whisper something, lips near her ear, fingers grazing the small of her back for one beat too long. They didn't announce anything. They didn't hold hands or kiss in front of us. They were just suddenly always slightly too close, like the wedding planning had pushed them into so many tight corners that pretending finally broke.I felt a soft warmth bloom in my chest. I said nothing. I just smiled, turning back to the mirror as the seamstress pinned my hem.Dominic stood across the room, arms crossed, watching the chaos of dresses and samples with his usual calm. His gaze flicked to me, checking like he always did now. I met his eyes for a second and let my smile stay.Lisette glanced at me in the reflection. Her cheeks flushed quick and guilty. She stepped half an inch away from Raffa

  • MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE   Chapter 56: The Real Weadding

    **Nadia**I stood in the soft morning light of the penthouse, my fingers still tingling from where they'd traced Dominic's jaw the night before. The air between us felt charged, heavy with everything we'd rebuilt after my day of deliberate distance. He watched me now, his dark eyes locked on mine as I pulled the gray sweater over my head, letting it drop to the floor. No barriers today. Just us."We married drunk in Vegas for revenge," I said, my voice steady even as my heart hammered against my ribs. The words hung there, simple and raw. I wanted him to feel the weight of them, the way they had shaped everything between us from the start. "I want a real wedding. For us."Dominic froze. His hand, which had been reaching for my waist, stilled mid-air. Those sharp features that usually commanded every room softened in shock, his brows drawing together as if he couldn't quite process what I'd just said. He sat up straighter on the edge of the bed, the sheet pooling around his hips, exp

  • MARRIED TO THE DEVIL BILLIONAIRE FOR REVENGE   Chapter 55: The Cost Of Absence

    **Nadia**I waited until the morning light had fully claimed the penthouse before I began.I dressed in silence, choosing a soft gray sweater and black trousers that covered every inch of skin Dominic usually demanded access to. No silk robe left teasingly open at the thigh. No bare shoulder brushing his chest as I passed. I moved through the kitchen like a woman who had simply woken up alone: pouring coffee, checking my tablet, answering a single work email with the calm precision of someone whose world had not tilted on its axis.He felt the absence immediately.At first it was subtle. The way I stepped just out of reach when he entered the kitchen. The way my fingers didn’t graze his wrist when I set his coffee down. I watched him tell himself it was coincidence. He was still half-asleep, still adjusting to the new rhythm we had found after the contract reset.By midday the absence had teeth.He found me in the living room, curled on the wide sectional with my laptop. When he sat

    **Nadia**I stood in Dominic’s office, heart still racing from the long day. The door clicked shut behind me with a soft final sound. He had waited until the entire floor emptied. Now it was just us, the city lights glowing through the large windows, the wide desk between us like a line we were ab

    My phone lit up with a message from a mutual friend. Priya wanted to meet. Alone. Coffee shop near the park. I stared at the screen for a long moment. Part of me wanted to delete it. Another part, the stronger part I had grown into, decided to go. I needed to face this.I walked into the coffee sh

    I woke up to the sound of Dominic’s phone buzzing nonstop on the nightstand. He reached for it without opening his eyes, but the moment he saw the screen, his body went still.

    My phone buzzed on the kitchen counter while I poured coffee. I picked it up without thinking. Another email from Garrett. The subject line read "I still love you."
