Love after Marriage

Sienna Carter is a small-town girl just trying to survive in the big city. Working long shifts at a diner, she never imagined that one reckless night would change her life forever. When she wakes up after a one-night stand with a mysterious stranger, she assumes she’ll never see him again. But fate has other plans. Damien Lancaster is the rebellious heir to one of the most powerful families in high society. Tired of his father’s control, he’s been living under the radar, pretending to be just another regular guy. But when a heated argument with his father pushes him too far, he makes a rash decision—to marry Sienna, the woman who unknowingly captured his attention. What starts as a petty act of defiance soon spirals into something neither of them expected. Thrust into a world of wealth, deception, and ruthless power plays, Sienna struggles to find her place. Damien fights his growing feelings for the wife he never planned to keep. And his family? They’ll do anything to tear her down. But when tragedy strikes and Sienna proves her worth by saving Damien’s younger sister, the tides begin to turn. What started as a marriage of convenience slowly becomes something real. And as secrets unravel and betrayals surface, Damien must decide—will he fight for the woman who changed his life, or will he let his family’s twisted legacy destroy their chance at happiness? A story of love, defiance, and redemption, Married to the Heir is a gripping romance filled with passion, power struggles, and a heroine who refuses to back down

Chapter 1

A Night to Forget

京都の社交界の誰もが知っていた。私が佐藤慶太のイヌだということを。

10年間彼にべったりくっついていた女のイヌだと。

でも私は気にしなかった。

人を愛し、その人にべったりくっつくことが間違いだろうか？

間違いではない。

私の佐藤慶太への執着を、彼も知っていた。

彼は私に諦めさせようと、わざと彼女を連れてきたりもした。

結果、佐藤慶太がいない隙に、私はその女性にお金を渡して佐藤慶太から離れるよう頼んだ。

しかしその女性は私に告げた。佐藤慶太の側には使い切れないほどのお金があると。このちっぽけな金額など眼中にないと。

最後には、階段から転げ落ちるという茶番劇が演じられた。

佐藤慶太もちょうどその場面を目撃した。

彼は私が精神分裂症だという理由で、私をリハビリ施設に送り込んだ。

リハビリ施設を出てから3年が経っていた。

外に出るとすぐ、一台のアウディが停まっているのが目に入った。

とても場違いな光景だった。

私はちらっと見ただけで、すぐに顔を伏せて立ち去ろうとした。

車から降りてきた人が私を呼び止めた。

佐藤慶太だった。

彼は3年前よりも大人びていた。

でも私はちらっと見ただけだった。

先生が言っていた。人をじっと見つめるのは失礼だと。

特に、好きな人を。

そう、3年経って、私は完全に洗脳されていた。

彼が車に乗るよう言うと、私は素直に従った。

おとなしく後部座席に座り、自分のズボンの裾を見つめ、身動きひとつしなかった。

佐藤慶太が隣に座ると、熱い視線を感じた。

車内の雰囲気はとても微妙だった。

私は息をするのもおっくうだった。

でも、それでも咳き込んでしまった。

昔からの持病だ。

車は佐藤家の実家に停まった。

彼のおばあさんがここに住んでいる。

もし間違いでなければ、今日は佐藤のおばあさんの80歳の誕生日だ。

佐藤慶太が私を迎えに来た理由が何となくわかった。

「佐藤さん……佐藤さん、私、プレゼントを持ってきていません。」私は佐藤慶太の背中を見て、少し躊躇した後、結局彼を呼び止めた。

佐藤慶太が振り返った瞬間、私の心臓はドキドキと高鳴り、慌てて顔を伏せた。

よくわかっていた。心臓の鼓動が早くなったのは、ときめいたからではなく、恐怖からだということを。

いつからだろう、私の度胸がなくなってしまったのは。

誰かに見られるだけで怖くなる。

その夜は悪夢を見てしまうほどで、たくさんの目に見つめられる夢を見る。

「ついてこい。」佐藤慶太は私の言葉を無視し、ただついてくるように言った。

相変わらず冷たかった。というか、彼は私にだけこんなに冷たいのだ。

私は小走りでやっと彼についていけた。

「まあ、帰ってきたのね。早く入りなさい。」

佐藤のおばあさんが門口で待っていた。

佐藤のおばあさんは子供っぽくて、私にとても優しい。

彼女は私が佐藤慶太を追いかけることを応援してくれたり、こっそり佐藤慶太の居場所を教えてくれたりした。

私は彼女の側に行き、「おばあさま」と呼びかけた。

「まあ、急によそよそしくなって。おばあさんを恨んでいるの？」佐藤のおばあさんは私の頭を撫で、慈愛に満ちた表情を浮かべた。

私は彼女に首を横に振り、そんなことはないと伝えた。

どうして彼女を恨むことができようか。

3年前、彼女が死をもって脅さなければ、私はきっと刑務所に入っていただろう。

ここのリハビリ施設は、外の世界には「教育施設」という建前で設立されているのだ。

A Night to Forget
Damien Lancaster stepped into the dimly lit bar, rolling his shoulders as he took in the scent of whiskey and faint traces of cigarette smoke. Here, in this rundown place on the outskirts of the city, no one knew who he was. No one cared. And that was exactly what he wanted.He wasn’t Damien Lancaster, heir to the billion-dollar Lancaster empire. The cold, powerful family that built their fortune through ruthless business tactics, controlling the industry and everyone in their orbit. Tonight, he was just another guy, blending into the crowd, free from his father’s overbearing expectations and the weight of his last name.Dressed in a worn leather jacket, a black t-shirt, and jeans, Damien took a seat at the bar and ordered a whiskey. The bartender slid him a glass, and he took a slow sip, the burn grounding him in the present. That was when he saw her.Across the room, Sienna Brooks laughed, her warm brown eyes sparkling under the neon lights. Her wavy chestnut hair cascaded down her

The Morning after
Sienna groaned as the first rays of sunlight peeked through the curtains, stabbing at her closed eyelids like tiny daggers. Her head pounded—a reminder of the drinks she had downed the night before. She rolled over, sighing as she buried her face in the pillow, hoping for just a few more minutes of sleep.But then she felt it.The steady rise and fall of a chest beside her. The warmth of a body. The unfamiliar scent of expensive cologne mixed with whiskey.Her eyes snapped open.Lying next to her, tangled in the sheets, was Damien.Sienna’s heart nearly stopped. Flashes of the previous night came rushing back—the teasing, the way his deep blue eyes had locked onto hers, the way his lips had claimed hers without hesitation. The way she had wanted him, needed him, and how she had let herself get lost in the moment.Her gaze dropped to her bare shoulder, the sheet barely covering her.“Oh my God,” she whispered.As if sensing her panic, Damien stirred beside her. His arm, which had been

An unexpected encounter
Damien gritted his teeth as he stepped out of his car, his father’s voice still ringing in his ears.“You’re a disgrace, Damien. Running around like a common nobody instead of handling your responsibilities. You will marry who I tell you to marry, and you will not embarrass this family.”The anger pulsed through him, hot and consuming. His father had spent his entire life trying to mold him into the perfect Lancaster heir, but Damien refused to be a puppet. He didn’t want the polished, obedient socialite his father had chosen for him. He wanted to live his life.His grip tightened around his phone before shoving it into his pocket. He needed a distraction. Something—anything—to shake off the rage crawling beneath his skin.Without thinking, he pushed open the door to a small diner. The bell above the entrance chimed, the scent of fresh coffee and sizzling bacon wrapping around him. He barely noticed.Then his eyes landed on her.Sienna.The tension in his shoulders loosened as he watc

The Proposition
Sienna hadn’t expected to see him again.The man from that reckless night—the stranger whose name she hadn’t even known until this moment—was now sitting in her diner, looking at her like he had been expecting her all along.Damien Lancaster.She barely had time to process it before he smirked, his gaze locked onto her as if he had all the time in the world.“Mint chocolate chip,” he murmured, his voice carrying over the low hum of the diner.Her stomach flipped. He remembered.Sienna’s grip tightened around the notepad in her hand. “So, you do know how to introduce yourself properly,” she said, trying to sound unaffected. “Would’ve been useful the first time.”Damien leaned back in the booth, the very picture of effortless confidence. “Would it have changed anything?”She flushed, knowing the answer was no. That night had been impulsive, wild—a break from reality she hadn’t allowed herself in years.But now, reality was here, and it was staring at her in the form of Damien Lancaster.

A Deal with the Devil
Sienna wasn’t sure how long she sat there, staring at Damien like he had grown two heads.Five million dollars.That was the price of marrying him.It was the kind of money that could erase every hardship she had ever known. The kind of money that could pull her out of the endless cycle of struggling, working late shifts at the diner, and worrying about bills.And all she had to do was put on a ring and pretend to love a man who—if she was being honest—was dangerously easy to want.Still, the words refused to leave her mouth.Damien was patient. Too patient. Like he already knew what her answer would be. Like he was waiting for her to accept what they both knew—she didn’t have a better option.Finally, she found her voice.“You’re out of your mind,” she muttered, shaking her head.His smirk widened slightly. “So I’ve been told.”“This is insane,” she continued. “You don’t even know me.”“I know enough,” Damien countered smoothly. “I know you’re independent, stubborn, and a hell of a l

Married in Secret
Sienna sat stiffly on the leather couch in Damien’s penthouse, her hands clasped tightly in her lap. The city skyline stretched behind her through floor-to-ceiling windows, glittering under the night sky, but she barely noticed. Across from her, Damien leaned against the sleek marble counter, a glass of whiskey in hand. He looked perfectly at ease, like he hadn’t just thrown a bomb into her life by proposing a marriage that wasn’t really a marriage. A contract. A deal. And yet, the weight of it settled on her shoulders like a burden she wasn’t sure she could carry. “You’re overthinking,” Damien said, watching her carefully. Sienna shot him a glare. “Excuse me if I don’t make life-altering decisions in five minutes.” His lips twitched in amusement, but he didn’t argue. Instead, he set down his glass, reached into the inside pocket of his suit jacket, and pulled out a folder. Sienna stared at it warily. “What’s that?” “The contract.” Of course, he already had it pr

The Billionaires Web
Sienna had expected luxury, but this? This was something else entirely. The penthouse wasn’t just expensive—it was ridiculous. Everything was sleek, modern, and massive. The open floor plan stretched endlessly, floor-to-ceiling windows showcasing the city skyline, while the marble floors gleamed under soft lighting. Her entire apartment could fit into Damien’s living room. Hell, her entire building could probably fit in here. She tried not to look impressed as she stood just inside the doorway, gripping the strap of her bag. “Welcome home,” Damien said, strolling inside like this was completely normal. Sienna arched a brow. “You say that like I have a choice.” “You did have a choice,” he reminded her, shrugging off his watch and setting it on the entry table. “And you signed a contract, remember?” She muttered something under her breath. Damien chuckled as he walked toward the bar in the corner of the room, pouring himself a drink. “Relax, sweetheart. I don’t bite.” Sienna

Meeting the Family
The tension in the dining room was suffocating. Sienna could feel the weight of Victoria Lancaster’s glare like a knife pressed to her throat. Damien’s mother sat regally at the head of the table, her pristine white dress untouched by a single wrinkle, as if even her clothing refused to betray weakness. Alexander Lancaster, Damien’s father, was just as unreadable. His expression remained cold, his presence commanding—like a king surveying an unworthy subject. Isabelle, Damien’s younger sister, leaned against the table with an amused smirk, clearly entertained by the entire show. And Damien? Damien was too relaxed, twirling the stem of his wine glass between his fingers, watching the exchange as if it were a game. But Sienna wasn’t playing. Not today. “Then I guess it’s a good thing I’m not asking for acceptance.” Victoria’s expression didn’t change, but Sienna didn’t miss the slight tensing of her jaw. Isabelle’s smirk widened. Damien chuckled under his breath.

Unspoken Ties
Sienna wasn’t sure when it started. That feeling. That strange, unsettling awareness of Damien Lancaster. It wasn’t just about the deal anymore. It wasn’t just about pretending. Because when she woke up in his penthouse the morning after meeting his family, her first thought wasn’t about the money, or the contract, or even his mother’s judgmental glare. It was about him. And that? That was dangerous. — She found Damien in the kitchen, dressed casually in a white t-shirt and dark sweatpants, hair slightly tousled. It was unfair how good he looked. He glanced up as she entered. “Morning, Mrs. Lancaster,” he greeted, sipping his coffee. Sienna rolled her eyes, grabbing a mug from the cabinet. “Still not used to hearing that.” “You better get used to it,” he smirked. “You’ve got a whole year left.” A year. Right. She tried to ignore the way her stomach twisted at the thought. They sat in comfortable silence, the smell of coffee filling the space. For a moment, it felt

The First Society Event
Sienna had survived her first meeting with the Lancaster family. Barely. Victoria’s sharp tongue, Alexander’s cold disapproval, and Celeste’s barely contained amusement had all been exhausting. But now? Now, she was walking into something even worse. A high-society gala. Damien had barely given her any warning before dropping the bomb that they were expected to attend one of the most exclusive events of the year. And she? She had no idea how to survive it. — The dress arrived at the penthouse that afternoon. A deep red, floor-length gown with an open back and a slit that climbed up her thigh. Sienna stared at it. Then at the designer heels. Then at the absurdly expensive jewelry. “This is too much,” she muttered. Damien leaned against the doorway, watching her. “It’s what’s expected.” She turned to him, crossing her arms. “You mean this world expects me to dress like a trophy wife?” His lips curled. “You are my wife.” “For a year,” she shot back. “Let’s not forget t
