"I didn't think you would show up with...popsicles," my husband says, his voice laced with subtle excitement. I can tell he's very, very happy to see me.

I cover the distance between us, set my bag on his desk, and round the chair to his side.

"Just wanted to surprise you." I slide onto his lap without asking, my legs draped sideways across his thighs, my arm looping loosely around his neck. He exhales like he's been holding his breath and wraps one arm around my waist, the o

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   080: On Purpose

    EDEN The bedroom is soft with morning light, golden stripes slipping through the half-closed blinds and painting lazy lines across the sheets. I awaken slowly with a groan. Hayden is still here in bed with me. His head is tucked under my chin, one arm slung heavily across my waist, the other curled beneath my pillow. His lashes are dark against his cheeks, but the circles under his eyes are more pronounced. He looks exhausted even in his sleep. The sun has crept higher, sunlight shining directly across my husband's face now. Yet, he doesn't stir. I glance at the digital clock on his nightstand, my eyes going wide. 10:54 a.m. I bite my lip, torn. Part of me wants to let him keep sleeping. He needs it so badly I can feel it in the way his body is limp against mine and heavy with a bone-deep fatigue. But the other part is screaming that he's already several hours late for work. I stare at his face. God, he's beautiful. Even while he's wrecked. Even with sh

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   079: All The Way

    EDEN "Dylan is the weak link. Rachel is careful, patient, and almost invisible. Dylan is sloppy, emotional and obsessed. If we break him, he'll give us Rachel on a silver platter. We'll get proof that he works with her." Hayden's arms tense around me. "No." I twist in his lap until I'm facing him fully. His hands automatically settle on my waist. "Hayden—" "I know exactly what you're thinking. I'm not letting that psycho anywhere near you again." His voice hardens. "Not alone. Not even for a second. I saw the way you looked when I found you in that theatre. You were shaking. You were sick. You were—" He stops. Hayden brushes my hair away from my face gently. "I can't do that again. I can't stand there and watch him put his hands on you and make you cry." His eyes are so bright. "I'll go," he says. "I'll meet him. I'll record it. I'll get him to confess. I'll—" "No." I cup his face with both hands. "You can't. He hates you more than he hates me. The second

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   078: Partners In Revenge

    EDEN Hayden pats me down like I'm made of glass and might shatter if he misses a crack. "Eden—baby—did he hurt you?" His voice is wrecked, like he's been screaming for hours. "Are you hurt? Did he touch you? Tell me where. Tell me what he did. I need to know—" I can't speak yet. My throat is raw from crying, from vomiting, and from holding back screams I didn't want Dylan to hear. I just shake my head against his chest. He exhales and pulls me closer. "You’re safe," he whispers. "You're okay.” I'm not okay. I can still hear Hayden's sobs from the video echoing in my skull. I can still feel Dylan's fingers stroking my hair while he called my husband pathetic. But Hayden is here. He’s real. I manage to lift my head just enough to look at him. His face is pale, with dark circles under his eyes. He looks completely burned out. "Take me home, Wolfie," I whisper. His eyes close for half a second in relief. Then he scoops me up in bridal style without strain.

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   077: Cry Me A River

    TW: This chapter contains mentions of assault, abuse and gore. EDEN The theatre is unnaturally quiet when I push through the heavy double doors. The entire place is empty. Except for him. Dylan is standing in the middle of the aisle, halfway down, his hands in the pockets of his dark jeans. He's wearing a black button-down rolled to the elbows, his hair pushed back, looking like he just stepped out of a cologne ad. In reality, he's in the middle of a blackmail scheme. When he sees me, he smiles. It's the same smile that used to make my stomach flip back in high school. Now it makes bile rise in my throat. He walks towards me with easy confidence, like we're only just meeting for a real date. "You came," he says softly. "I wasn't sure you would." I don't answer. I just stand there, clutching my phone so hard that the edges bite into my palm. My other hand is already fumbling for the recorder app. I've got it open, my thumb hovering over record. Dylan notices.

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   076: Half Dead

    HAYDEN The city lights blur as I cut through traffic. My knuckles are white on the wheel, and the speedometer is kissing 85 in a 50 zone. I don't care. The Aston's V12 is screaming, but all I hear is the blood pounding in my ears. I should have checked the messages sooner. I should have fucking checked. Three unknown numbers messaged me earlier. I saw the first one pop up while I was still in the elevator leaving the office, and I stupidly dismissed it as spam. The second came while I was on the phone with security. I ignored it again. The third arrived when I was already in the car, the tires squealing out of the garage. I didn't open any of them. I should have. The fourth message—the one I finally tapped open at a red light—nearly made me vomit on the leather. It was from Rachel. It read: ‘Come to the Hudson Yards Hotel. Room 4709. Alone. No security. No Eden. No cops. If you're not here in thirty minutes, I start with Astrid. She's already bleeding. You ca

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   075: This Game

    EDEN The little Italian place Ava loves is tucked between a dry cleaner and a nail salon. Fairy lights have been strung across the ceiling, there are red-checkered tablecloths, and there's a warm buttery smell that usually makes my mouth water. Tonight it just makes my stomach twist tighter. We're in the back corner booth, the one Ava always requests because it's "cozy and private." She's already ordered the truffle ravioli for both of us without asking, plus a bottle of Chianti which she's now pouring like it's water. She slides my glass towards me and leans forward on her elbows, her sunglasses pushed up into her hair, studying me like I'm a puzzle she's determined to solve. "Okay," she says. "Spill. You've been doing that thing where you stare at your phone like it personally insulted your mother. And don't give me the 'work thing' again. You're not even employed right now." I force out a laugh. It comes out hollow. "I'm fine, Ava. Really." She doesn't buy i

    EDEN I'm perched on the couch scrolling through possible interior decoration inspiration for my million-dollar idea. I resigned from my job at the restaurant. I've been an assistant chef for the longest time, but that's really not what I want to do. The door opens. I don't have to lo

    EDEN The amusement park is loud and alive. I chose this one on purpose. Hayden hates the Ferris wheel. Always has, even back in high school. I remember a lot of things I wish I could forget. We left the island for this visit. The numbing cream I’d applied earlier still works. Yay, no m

    HAYDEN "Because I can't stop wanting you.” The words tumble out of me before I can cage them. Her eyes widen with shock, fury, and something softer. "I never wanted the contract," I snarl, stepping closer until her back hits the wall. "But the second your father made that offer, I
