~Katia~

The reef sat a short boat ride from the villa, close enough that the staff dropped us off and left without waiting, trusting we would signal when we wanted to be collected again.

Julian had brought the masks and fins himself, refusing the offer of an instructor or a guide, which did not surprise me by this point in the trip. He preferred to do things himself when he could, the same way he had cut the fruit for breakfast with his own hands rather than letting the staff arrange it, the sa

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    He is not your husband

    KatiaThe smell of coffee turned my stomach the moment I stepped into the kitchen, which made no sense at all, since I had been drinking the same brand every morning for the better part of a decade.I stood at the counter and stared at the machine like it had personally betrayed me, then gave up and poured myself a glass of water instead, holding it against my lips longer than I drank from it, waiting for the wave behind my ribs to settle before it climbed any higher.This was the third morning in a row.I told myself it was the flight back from the Maldives. Recycled air, pressurized cabins, and the kind of low-grade nausea that came from sitting in a metal tube for fourteen hours and pretending it was relaxing because the water below happened to be turquoise. I told myself it was the wine at dinner the night before, even though I had barely finished half a glass before pushing the rest away, the smell of it suddenly wrong in a way I could not name.I told myself a lot of things that

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    Not About Katia

    ~Jude~I stepped out of the Obsidian Lounge into the cold night air and walked half a block before I trusted my hands enough to pull out my phone.The street was mostly empty at this hour, just the occasional taxi sliding past and a doorman two buildings down stamping his feet against the cold. I leaned against the stone facade of a closed boutique and tried to slow my breathing before I dialed, because I did not want him to hear anything in my voice that he could use against me later.I dialed the number from memory. I had never saved it under a name, never trusted a phone enough to leave a trace of who he actually was, not after everything he had told me about the kind of people who might come looking if this arrangement ever unraveled in the wrong direction.It picked up on the second ring."Talk to me," the voice said."Windsor is not making this easy," I said, keeping my voice low, my eyes scanning the street out of habit more than necessity. "I think he might have a clue. About

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    Nice Dick

    JulianThe Obsidian Lounge smelled of leather and bourbon. This wasn’t a place people came to be seen; it was a spot for those who already owned enough of the world to skip the audience. Low lighting left dark shadows across the black stone bar top, where the amber liquid in our glasses reflected the overhead fixtures.I sat back, my hand resting loosely around a glass of neat Macallan 25, watching Wolfe try to fit himself into the scenery. He vibrated with a restless, hungry energy that the elite of Manhattan spent lifetimes learning to hide. He was a man trying to colonize a room that had been settled long before his ancestors learned to read a ledger."You’ve been quiet tonight, Windsor," Jude said, leaning a forearm against the bar. He swirled his ice, the clink of crystal against glass. "A bit detached for a man who just spent three days on a private island with my wife.""I am never detached, Jude," I replied, my voice level. "I am simply observant."He let out a dry, humorless

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    The Other Hand

    ~Julian~Martha opened the first box like a woman unwrapping something she had been promised in a dream for years and had stopped believing would actually arrive.Inside sat a crystal decanter set, hand-cut, the kind of thing that belonged in a museum case more than a liquor cabinet, and she made a small, delighted sound that David echoed a moment later when his own box revealed a set of cufflinks I recognized immediately as a brand that did not produce anything under five figures.Delia's box held a bracelet.I watched her open it with the same careful expression she had been wearing all evening, turning the thin gold chain over in her fingers, murmuring something polite and entirely hollow in Jude's direction. She did not look at me while she said it. I did not need her to. I understood exactly what this gift was costing her, watching a man she had no real claim to perform generosity in a room where she had spent two years receiving nothing at all from the man whose name she actuall

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    Have I Ever

    ~Katia~The boxes sat unopened on the low table near the window for most of dinner, a kind of silent centerpiece nobody seemed willing to address directly until the main course had been cleared and the wine had loosened something in the room.It was David, surprisingly, who brought it back up."So," he said, gesturing vaguely toward the boxes with his glass, "are we opening those tonight or saving the suspense?""After dessert," Martha said quickly, the way a woman protected a moment she had been planning all day.Delia set her fork down with more force than the gesture required."I still want to know," she said, her voice carrying just enough edge to make David glance at her, "what Julian brought."The table went quiet.Martha's eyes moved to Julian with the same bright, expectant interest she had shown at the front door, as though she believed enough silence might still produce a different answer than the one he had already given her."I told your mother already," Julian said, setti

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    No Gifts

    ~Katia~Jude drove us to the Kensington house himself, which felt like a small thing until I realized it was deliberate, a quiet signal he was sending without saying a word about it. A husband drove his wife to her parents' house. He did not have a driver do it for him.I had spent most of the ride looking out the window rather than at him.When we pulled up the long gravel drive, two black cars from his own fleet were already parked near the entrance, and a small group of his people were unloading something from the back of the second vehicle. Boxes, wrapped in heavy cream paper with a ribbon that matched too precisely to be anything but professionally arranged. I counted four of them before we even reached the door, each one large enough that it took two people to carry."What is all this?" I said."A gesture," Jude said. "Your parents have never properly received me as family. I intend to correct that tonight."Julian and Delia arrived almost directly behind us, their car pulling i

    ~Katia~My thighs were screaming.Every step I took down the polished concrete corridor of the IG Technologies executive floor was a reminder of the violent, relentless way Julian had claimed me against the mahogany desk yesterday afternoon. My hips were bruised, the skin on my waist carried the da

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    Desk-Side Territorial Reclamation

    ~Julian~My blood was boiling.The walk from the media wall to the private executive offices at the back of the exhibition hall was a blur of cold, sharp rage. Marcus was handling the security team and the press, but I didn't care about the press. I didn't care about Tessa Sterling, and I certainly

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband    The Claim (The Kiss)

    ~Katia~The media wall was positioned near the exit to the VIP terrace, a massive step-and-repeat branded with the IG Technologies and WEG logos.The press was a wall of noise—the rapid clicking of shutter lenses, the bright, blinding flash of bulbs, and the shouting of names from journalists despe

  • My Accidental Billionaire Husband     The Ruined Seduction

    ~Delia~She was in a cage.The thought was a warm, sweet hum in my blood. For eighteen months, Katia had been a shadow over my life, a constant, irritating presence that drew my husband's attention away from where it belonged. But today, the law had finally caught up with her. The pristine, untouch
