SELENE

I stayed quiet even after Adrien stepped out of the room. The door clicked behind him, soft but heavy, like it left a weight in the air instead of taking one with it. I didn’t answer him, not a word, not a nod. He spoke, I stayed still. That was how things worked between us now.

  • Married To The Cruel Billionaire    Chapter 91

    LEO I arrived earlier than usual that morning. Not because anyone asked me to. Not because I had to. I just woke up already alert, already dressed, already aware that something had shifted overnight and I didn’t want to be late to it. The parking lot was almost empty when I pulled in. A few executive cars. A couple of staff. Quiet, clean, controlled. Then I saw Adrien’s car. It was already moving. Backing out of its spot, smooth and slow like always. Same black car he’d driven for years. Same one everyone associated with him. I stayed still in my own car and watched it pass in front of me. He didn’t look my way. Maybe he didn’t see me. Maybe he did and chose not to. Either way, he drove out of the lot without hesitation. No pause. No second glance. Just… gone. I sat there for a few seconds longer than I needed to. This was supposed to be gradual. That had always been the plan in my head. Slow. Subtle. A few projects here and there. More meetings. More presence. Time. I d

    ********Luzzaru’s office was loud and busy as usual.Three monitors on his main desk. Two more mounted on the wall. One tablet propped beside his keyboard. Clips looping. Headlines refreshing. Numbers ticking up and down in real time.He leaned back in his chair, phone in one hand, coffee in the other, smiling at something one of his editors had just sent him.“Run it again,” he said into his headset. “The angle where he turns his head. That one gets reactions.”A voice replied through his ear. “We already cut three versions.”“Cut four,” Luzzaru said. “People like options.”He sipped his coffee, eyes still on the main screen. Selene’s face froze mid-frame. A still from the club video. The one everyone knew now.“God, this thing’s gold,” he muttered.His phone buzzed on the desk.He glanced at it, annoyed at the interruption. Unknown number. Private line.He answered anyway.“Luzzaru speaking.”The voice on the other end was calm. Flat. Not rushed.“Good afternoon, Mr. Luzzaru. My na

    SELENEI woke up with my head pounding.Not a soft ache. Not the kind you could ignore. This was sharp, heavy, like someone had been knocking on the inside of my skull all night and forgot to stop.I groaned and turned my face into the pillow.Bad idea.The room spun instantly, slow and dizzy, like

    SELENEI couldn’t believe he just dumped that whole “company board luncheon” thing on me like it was nothing. One second I was dozing off peacefully with my magazine, and the next, Adrien was in my room talking about buttons, kisses, and acting like we were the world’s happiest couple.A luncheon?

    SELENEI turned fully, my breath catching for a second because my brain needed a moment to process what I was seeing.“Olivia…?” The name felt strange on my tongue. I hadn’t said it out loud in a long time. “What are you doing here?”It came out sharper than I meant, but I didn’t care. Shock does t

    SELENEThe words hit me like someone slapped me across the face.How did it feel to have Adrien inside me?I didn’t even realize I’d stopped breathing until my throat burned. I stared at the woman through the mirror, trying to process if I heard correctly or if my mind was just playing tricks on me
