HAYDEN

Juliet left twenty minutes ago, promising to call the lawyers and start damage control. Biscuit is curled in a tight golden ball at the foot of the couch, his ears twitching every time Eden shifts.

She's lying on her side under the throw blanket, her knees drawn up, with one hand tucked under her cheek. Her face is pale, her lips pressed thin against the headache she won't admit is getting worse. She ate half the sandwich I made her, mostly to stop me hovering, then said her

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   102: Homecoming [Epilogue]

    EDEN Hayden is asleep beside me, sprawled on his back, one arm flung across the pillows, the other resting loosely over his stomach. His chest rises and falls in the deep, even rhythm that only comes after exhaustion has finally won. The lines around his eyes are softer in sleep, the tension he still carries in his jaw during the day melting away. For a moment I'm reminded of how many versions of him I've known: the boy who broke me before he understood the cost, the stranger who came back carrying guilt and obsession, and now this one who's now completely mine. I shift carefully so I don't wake him, propping myself on one elbow. My fingers find their way to his hair, threading through the dark strands slowly, gently. Looking at him doesn't hurt anymore. That realization settles in my chest like a stone shaped by years of river water. It used to ache every time I remembered the photos, the signature, and the bet. The way I stood at his father's gate in the rain, nin

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   101: This Life

    HAYDEN The smell of vanilla cake and fresh-cut roses fills the air. Sunlight pours through the floor-to-ceiling windows, turning the living room gold. Balloons in soft pink and cream bob against the ceiling. A small crowd of people murmurs in the background. Eden's parents are laughing with my mother over coffee, a couple of Eden's new friends from the academy are taking photos, and my sister’s there too. And so are Chloe and Reegan, who’s back from school for the holidays. Then there’s a group of regulars who frequent my wife’s cake boutique. The soft clink of glasses fills the air. Nora is one today. One year of midnight feeds that somehow became my favourite hours, of her gummy smile that still stops my heart every time. Right now, though, she's not smiling. She's in full meltdown on the rug in the middle of the room, her face red, her little fists pounding the floor, screaming her lungs out. The cake, which is perfectly frosted with one fat candle still unlit, s

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   100: Peace Like No Other

    EDEN My baby bump at eight months feels like I’m carrying a watermelon strapped to my front with a duct tape. Every step I take is a negotiation with gravity. My own center of gravity has officially betrayed me, my lower back is staging a permanent protest, and the baby has decided that my bladder is her personal trampoline. I'm sweaty, swollen, and somehow still horny as hell, which is deeply unfair. Hayden is across from me in black sweatpants hanging dangerously low on his hips, and no shirt. No. Shirt. He's doing pull-ups on the bar. Every rep makes the muscles in his back and arms ripple, showcasing his shoulders, lats, biceps, and the deep V that disappears into those sweatpants. His hair is damp from the warm-up run we did earlier, sticking to his forehead in dark strands. He looks... obscene. Something about therapy, regular sleep, actual meals, and the crushing weight of revenge finally lifting off his shoulders has apparently turned my husband into

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   099: Let Him Grieve

    EDEN My beloved is standing near the vanity now, one hand braced against the wood. His shoulders are rigid, the muscles in his back coiled tight. My heart starts beating faster as I watch him. "Hayden." He inhales slowly. I slide off the bed and walk towards him, my bare feet silent on the floor. When I reach him, I stop a step away, close enough to see the way his throat moves when he swallows hard. "Please," I whisper. "Don't lie to me again." He squeezes his eyes shut. Then his shoulders sag. “Yes." For a second I don't move. I think that part of me hoped I was wrong. That I'd misread the tension in his voice earlier. That the dark suspicion curling in my chest was just fear talking. But it wasn't. I let out a slow breath. "Where?" He rubs a hand over his face. "One of my properties." "How long?" "Seven days." My stomach drops. "Hayden..." He finally looks at me then. And the expression on his face almost shatters me. There's no anger there.

  • Married To My Billionaire Nemesis   098: Failure

    TW: Mentions of blood and gore. If you’re squeamish, skip the flashback. HAYDEN For a second, my brain nearly does exactly what it has been trained to do for years. Lie. "No," I almost say. The word rises to the back of my throat automatically, the same way I've lied to investors, reporters, board members, and enemies a thousand times before. But this is Eden. And she's looking at me like she already knows. My back is still to her but I can feel her eyes on me. I haven't moved since she asked the question. Behind my ribs, my heart starts beating harder, like a fist against bone. If I turn around, I'll have to look at her face. And if I look at her face, I might see the disappointment and the fear. I drag a hand through my hair and stare at the wall. Say no. It would be easy. Rachel Gregory is a ghost to the rest of the world right now. Interpol is looking for her in Geneva. Authorities think she's slipping between safe houses and burner phones. Nobody knows
