Emma

“Your joy is contagious today, ma’am.” Tatiana, one of our househelps remarked with a small smile on her face as we set the table. Eleanor and Isla were back from Paris and had just informed me that they were on their way to the mansion now.

With Tatiana’s help, I had prepared their favorites to welcome them. I was more than excited to have them over. Especially Isla.

“I know, right?” I chuckled softly as I briefly lifted my gaze to Tatiana before returning my attention back to the table again. “I can’t help it. My cousin and daught…”

I froze, catching myself instantl as the word threatened to slip out of my mouth. Getting myself together again, I pasted a smile on my face and continued.

“My cousin and little sister are back from Paris and will be coming over to visit me. I’ve missed them so much.”

“I know exactly how you feel.” Tatiana folded the napkins in neat triangles and arranged them neatly on the table. “That’s how I feel whenever my son comes to visit for the holidays.”

  • Playing the Billionaire’s Contract Game   Beauty and the Beast

    Emma"What the fuck is this?" I hissed, rising to my feet and facing him. My voice was sharp and shaky with rising anger. The file shook in my grasp, evidence of the truth I desperately wanted to be wrong about.Zane didn’t flinch. He stood there in the doorway, his expression still unreadable. Stone cold, devoid of any emotion. As if my world hadn’t just shattered at his feet.A desperate part of me clung to the hope that I had misunderstood. That somehow, this was all a mistake."You shouldn’t have come in here.” He said in a calm and controlled voice, like he wasn’t watching me fall apart right in front of him.I let out a bitter laugh, a tear slipping down my cheek. "Did you plan a fake wedding?" My voice cracked, raw with disbelief.Zane’s gaze flickered to the file for a brief second before meeting mine again. His jaw tensed, his hesitation confirming the worst before he even said the words."Yes."The world tilted beneath my feet. A strangled gasp left my lips as my stomach tw

  • Playing the Billionaire’s Contract Game   Married to the Devil Himself

    EmmaI woke up in the middle of the night, my throat dry and aching for water. I already knew why —I was still recovering from all the sex of last night. After all that crazy sexual passion, it was a miracle I could even stand.Slowly, I blinked my eyes open, my gaze landing on Zane’s sleeping form beside me. His arms were wrapped around me tightly, as if even in sleep, he was making sure I wouldn’t disappear. His face was peaceful, his strong features softened in the dim light. For a moment, he didn’t look like the ruthless mafia boss he was. Just a man lost in deep sleep.A small smile tugged at my lips as I studied him. He was breathtaking, almost unreal. Without thinking, I reached out and my fingers traced the sharp lines of his face. His straight nose, his sculpted cheekbones, the defined curve of his lips. He was perfect. If the devil had a face, it would be Zane’s.He stirred slightly under my touch, but instead of waking, he only pulled me closer, his grip tightening around

    Zane By the time I got home, Emma still wasn’t back.Frowning, I headed straight to my room, undressed, and stepped into the shower. As the hot water streamed down my body, I pushed my hair back, my mind consumed by a single thought. Emma.It was late. Too late. Where the hell was she? I had expected her to be home by now. My jaw tightened as an unsettling thought crossed my mind. Could she be with that bastard, Asher Dominguez?They have been spending more time together lately. Getting closer.My teeth clenched. I was already in a standoff with his father. Asher would be a fool to get under my skin too.Maybe I should get rid of him —take him down along with his father.But he was just a civilian.I let out a frustrated groan, gripping the back of my neck. As long as he wasn’t involved in his father’s business, I had no reason to touch him. He may have come from a mafia family, but he had cut ties with them and built his own name in the business world.No. I would find something i

  • Playing the Billionaire’s Contract Game   Failed Mission

    ZaneAfter leaving Emma’s dessert bar, I drove straight to my second mansion —the one I used for my ‘business’ dealings. Now that Emma was living with me as my wife, I didn’t want her anywhere near the dark, brutal side of my world. She was too pure for that.As soon as I arrived, Miguel was already waiting at the entrance. Without a word, he turned and walked beside me into the house. He led me to the foyer, where my men were gathered. They greeted me as I sat down, their expressions tense.I glanced at my wristwatch, growing impatient. I didn’t want to be here —not tonight. I should be at home, waiting for Emma and the little ‘surprise’ she had planned for me.“Don Carlos is stepping out of line, boss.” One of my men finally spoke, breaking the silence.I lifted my gaze to meet them. I had expected this conversation the moment Miguel called me here, but that didn’t stop the anger from bubbling up again. I forced myself to keep it contained.“Did you fail to stop the delivery?” My vo

  • Playing the Billionaire’s Contract Game   Free Tasting

    EmmaDetermined to boost my dessert bar’s popularity, I decided to try a marketing tip I had seen on the internet the next day. First, I created an Instagram account and started posting pictures of our desserts. They were pictures of beautifully plated pastries, creamy cheesecakes, and chocolate-drizzled delights. To make things more fun and engaging, Eleanor and I took a few selfies, making goofy, silly, and cute faces while holding some of the desserts.Under each post, we added hashtags to increase visibility. #SweetIndulgence #BestDessertsInTown #MadeWithLove #FreeTastingTodayThen, to attract foot traffic, we printed out colorful flyers and planned to distribute them to passersby, inviting them in for a free tasting in the bar. From what I had read, my launch event had been a grand affair, mostly catering to elites. But I wanted to make sure everyday people —the kind who might become my most loyal customers— also got to experience my desserts.So, while I waited inside, hopin

    EmmaOh my God.Walking in on Asher and Rachel in such an intimate position was the last thing I ever expected to see tonight. Or ever.I had accepted Asher’s invitation not just because we had made up, but because I needed a break from Zane’s jealousy and the cold treatment he had been giving me since the charity event.Only to walk in on this.“Emma.” Asher called my name, his voice heavy with shock. He quickly pushed Rachel away and fumbled to fasten his belt as he shoved his cock back into his trousers.Rachel’s head snapped toward me, her face frozen in surprise and her lips slightly parted.“I… um…” I stammered, struggling to decide how to react. Asher wasn’t my boyfriend anymore, neither was he my husband. So, I had no right to be upset. But seeing my best friend on her knees with her mouth around his cock, giving him one hungry blow job was impossible to wipe off my memories. And somehow, it upset me slightly, no matter how I tried to deny it. Forcing a small smile, I clear
