Amelia's POV

He turned to Darcy, "Get the fuck out of here, we need privacy."

Darcy looked at me, with a raised eyebrow. I gestured for her to leave.

Darcy and Samantha never really liked Damian, and they didn't try to hide it. They were nice to him just because I begged them to. She closed the door behind her.

"My lawyer called me today. Your lawyer sent him the signed documents today, and I've been an acting manager for just one year. Why did you deceive me?" His nostrils flared.

"I should be asking you that same question. Why did you deceive me, Damian?" I stood up from my seat.

He stopped in front of my desk, "I'll ask again. Why the fuck did you deceive me?"

We maintained eye contact.

"Deceive? I didn't do that. I just made a decision. It's my company after all. I choose who to hire, and who to fire. Enjoy your one-year contract, Mr Hades. It may not be renewed." I sat down, and picked up my pen to continue working.

"I would like you to get out of my office, I need to work." My lips were in a tight smile.

He was about to say something when someone opened my door. It was Ivy, my younger sister, and Damian's fiancé.

Could this day get any worse?!

"Hi Sissy. Hi baby…" she shrieked. She was wearing a white shirt and a short blue skirt, with a pair of black heels. Her blonde hair was tied up in a ponytail.

She walked towards my desk with a half smile on her face. She dropped her black birkin bag on my table, and wrapped her arms around Damian's neck, drawing circles with her fingers.

Damian let out a low moan, as he wrapped his arms round my sister's waist.

I looked at them in utter shock and disbelief. What sick game were they playing? My blood boiled.

Well, if they wanted to give me a show, I might as well watch them.

I laid back on my seat, crossed my arms, and watched as they continued.

"I've missed you so much Baby," she whispered.

"After the good sex that we had last night, I'm hungry for more. I hope we can explore more positions today." Damian leaned in and captured her lips in a kiss.

I clenched, and clenched my fist in annoyance.

"You don't do well in bed though," I muttered. A chuckle left my lips.

Damian turned to me, "You weren't good in bed, don't blame me for your inability to have good sex." He chuckled.

Ivy spread her fingers on Damian's hair, showcasing the ring I picked for my engagement.

I was enraged, but I couldn't care less.

My parents started this. They had always given Ivy everything she wanted, even if it meant I got uncomfortable for her to be comfortable. I wouldn't be surprised that they knew about this from the beginning, and encouraged her. She always wanted to be in the spotlight, and throw me off anytime, anywhere. My parents always supported her.

She pulled Damian into another kiss.

That was it. I had enough of this nonsense.

I knocked on my desk twice, "Leave my office now, before I call the security."

They looked at me, with a smirk on their faces. Then they detached from each other.

Ivy arranged her clothes, and picked her bag from my table.

"I came because I didn't see you at my engagement party yesterday, after the stunt you pulled." She snorted. "You're my older sister, and I expected a gift from you. What happened? Was the event not to your liking?" She feigned concern.

"I had other important things to do. I couldn't stay, but I'll get you something." I smiled.

Darcy knocked twice, before she opened the door. She walked towards me in a hurry, "The new executive that bought major shares recently is here for the meeting. He came alone. Should I ask him to come in?" She whispered in my ear.

I nodded.

"If you would excuse me, I have a meeting right now." I stood up.

I looked up as the man walked into my office.

This day actually got worse.

A pair of beautiful hazel eyes stared at me.

The guy who made me feel alive yesterday, and screamed his name till I almost forgot mine.

He was wearing a custom-made corporate wear set from Ahava Royale, the most luxurious corporate wear brand.

I did some background research on that company when I was buying shares last year.

His navy blue shirt matched with his blue blazers, and his pair of black pants. His hair was styled perfectly, he had a small smile on his face.

It was Asher. He was the new executive.

Damian froze, he clenched and clenched his fingers. Something he did whenever he was tense.

"Uncle Asher?" Damian looked between him and me.

Asher is Damian's uncle?

"It's been awhile since I saw you, Damian." Asher smiled, but it didn't reach his eyes. It was more like a forced smile.

I discreetly looked at the file in front of me. I hadn't gone through his file yet. I was going through the things we were meant to discuss.

Asher Sinclair. CEO and founder of Home.

"Mr Sinclair, welcome to Genesis holding company. Please have your seat." I gestured to him to sit on one of the couches.

"Mom and dad want you to be at the family dinner next weekend. It's dad's birthday, and we're going to be talking about my wedding. The date's been set." Ivy walked out with Damian following behind her.

"Have a nice day, Damian. I'll see you soon," Asher said.

"Yes sir. Have a great day too," Damian smiled, and closed the door behind him.

I took a deep breath before I walked to my table and took the documents I wanted to talk about.

My hands were sweating, as I remembered clips of last night. How he fumbled with my breast, and thrust inside of me.

I snapped out of it, trying to concentrate on arranging the documents on the glass table that separated us. I noticed he hadn't said a word. I looked up at him, he was staring at me.

I looked away quickly, my eyes were everywhere but on him. I could feel the heat rising from my neck.

"Thank you very much, Mr Sinclair, for trusting my company and investing five billion dollars. I'll be explaining different shares, and how we—"

"Why did you leave like that?" He cut me off.

"I saw the cash you dropped when I woke up this morning. Who was it for?" He smirked.

"Mr Sinclair —" I started.

"It's Asher. You were screaming it all night, so I highly doubt that you forgot the name."

"We're talking about business right now. Personal matters can be discussed later," I said.

He stood up, and sat beside me. He leaned in, his hand cupped my cheek as he caressed my face.

"Well, you're my business," he traced kisses on my neck.

As much as I wanted to pull away, I found myself leaning to his touch, with my fingers in his hair.

This was a sin, and I was willing to commit it.

  • My Ex Fiancé wants be back, but my contract husband owns me   Author’s Note

    To my lovely readers, I don't even know where to begin. How do I put into words what you mean to me? How do I thank you for something as priceless as your time, your attention, your heart? You picked up this book. You gave Amelia and Asher a chance. You stayed with them through every twist, every turn, every heartbreaking moment and every breathless kiss — all the way to the very last page. That means more to me than you will ever know. Every late night I spent writing, every scene I rewrote, every moment I doubted myself — you made it all worth it. There were days I wondered if my words mattered, if anyone would care about these characters the way I did. And then you showed up. You laughed with them. You cried with them. You got frustrated with them. You rooted for them. You loved them. And in doing so, you became a part of their story. You became a part of mine. Writing is a lonely journey sometimes. It's just you, a blank screen, and the voices in your head. But you? You made

  • My Ex Fiancé wants be back, but my contract husband owns me   Chapter Hundred and Forty Two(Final Chapter)

    Amelia's POVTwo Years Later.....The back porch smelled like cut grass and jasmine. It was the same porch. The same wooden swing with the chipped white paint. The same string lights Asher’s dad had put up years ago and never took down. The same night air that used to feel like it was holding its breath. Only this time there was no audience. No cameras. No whispering relatives. No performance. Just us. Eleanor was asleep inside in her bassinet. She’d been fussy all afternoon because she was teething, and now she’d finally crashed in my arms and let Asher carry her in like she weighed nothing. He came back out with two mugs of tea. Chamomile. He remembered I couldn’t have coffee anymore when I was nursing. “Here,” he said, handing me one. I took it. Our fingers brushed. He sat next to me on the swing and pulled me in. His arm went around my shoulders, and his other hand settled on my stomach. Not a crash. Not an accident. We’d talked about it for months. In the kitchen at 2

  • My Ex Fiancé wants be back, but my contract husband owns me   Chapter Hundred and Forty One

    Amelia's POV The house was quiet when we got back. Not the bad kind of quiet. The kind that comes after a storm. Sam was on the couch with a blanket around her shoulders. There was a bandage on her wrist. Ivy was in the kitchen chair, holding an ice pack to the back of her head. Mom was hovering with tea that no one was drinking. The second Ivy saw me she stood up. Too fast. Wobbled. “Amelia,” she said. I ran to her. We hugged. Hard. She was shaking. “You came,” she whispered into my hair. “You actually came.”“I told you I would,” I said. Sam pulled me into the hug too. She smelled like hospital soap and baby. “You’re okay?” she asked. “I’m okay,” I said. “Are you?”She nodded. Then she looked at my stomach. My hand went there automatically. “I’m pregnant,” I said. The words felt new in my mouth. “Like, two weeks.”Sam gasped. Ivy’s eyes went wide. Then they both started crying and laughing at the same time. “Oh my God,” Sam said. “A baby cousin for our boy.”Ivy wiped h

    Amelia's POV 11:58 a.m. The Sinclair warehouse on 8th and Merrow looked exactly like what it was: abandoned. Broken windows. Rusted doors. Weeds growing through the cracks in the concrete. My hands were on the wheel but I couldn’t feel them. The wire under my shirt itched. The bag on the passenger seat was heavy. Cash. Passport. New identity. And me. I was terrified. Not for me. For the baby. For Ivy. For Sam. I took a breath. Then another. “Bluebird,” I whispered into the mic. “I’m here.”Asher’s voice came back immediately in my earpiece. “I see you. We’re in position. Two blocks out. You’re not alone.”I got out of the car. The bag felt like it weighed a hundred pounds. The door to the warehouse was half open. It groaned when I pushed it. Inside was dark. Dust in the air. The smell of old oil and metal. “Damien?” I called out. My voice echoed. “Damien, it’s me.”No answer. I waited. One minute. Two. Five. My heart was pounding so hard I could feel it in my throat.

    Amelia's POV “I’ll do it,” I said into the phone. My voice didn’t shake. I was proud of that. There was a pause on the other end. I could hear Damien breathing. “Good girl,” he said. “Noon. Don’t be late.”And then he hung up. The silence after was worse than his voice. Asher was already shaking his head. “No. Absolutely not.”“We have to,” I said. “It’s too dangerous,” Ethan said. He was pacing again. “He’s unstable. He could kill you the second you walk in.”Priya looked at me, then at Asher. “It’s also the only way we catch him,” she said carefully. “If you go, we follow. We get Ivy and Sam out. We end this.”The front door opened. Jordan and Darcy. They came in fast, out of breath. Darcy’s eyes went straight to me. “What happened?” Jordan asked. Asher filled them in. Everything. The call. The demands. Sam. Ivy. Noon. When he finished, no one spoke for a minute. “I’m going,” I said again. “I have to.”“Amelia—” Asher started. “I’m pregnant,” I said. The room went stil

    Amelia's POV The phone rang at 1:17 a.m. I was half-asleep. Asher was asleep next to me, his arm draped over my waist, his hand resting right over where the baby was. *Scarlett.* My stomach dropped before I even answered. “Hello?” My voice came out hoarse. “Amelia.” Mom’s voice was shaking. Not crying yet. That worse kind. The kind right before. “It’s Damien.”The room went cold. “What?”“He was here,” she said. The words were tumbling out now. “He broke in. He took Ivy. I tried to stop him. The security— they were too late. He has her. He hit her head, Amelia. She’s knocked out. He drove off with her.”I sat straight up. The blanket fell off me. “Where are you? Are you okay? Is anyone hurt?”“I’m okay,” she said, but she wasn’t. I could hear it. “The police are here. Dashaun. Priya. Ethan just got here too.”I was already out of bed. “I’m coming. I’m coming right now.”“Amelia—”I hung up. Asher was already sitting up. “What happened?”“Damien,” I said, pulling on clothes wi
