JADE

The metallic sound of the lock turning rang through the empty living room like a gunshot.

I stood frozen in the hallway, staring at the closed door of the master bedroom. My heart was pounding wildly against my ribs, not from fear, but from a surge of pure, unfiltered fury.

She locked me out.

In my own damn penthouse.

"Unbelievable," I muttered under my breath, dragging a hand through my dark hair, shoving the fallen strands out of my eyes. "Unfucking believable."

    JADEThe metallic sound of the lock turning rang through the empty living room like a gunshot.I stood frozen in the hallway, staring at the closed door of the master bedroom. My heart was pounding wildly against my ribs, not from fear, but from a surge of pure, unfiltered fury.She locked me out.In my own damn penthouse."Unbelievable," I muttered under my breath, dragging a hand through my dark hair, shoving the fallen strands out of my eyes. "Unfucking believable."I turned around, pacing back and forth across the concrete living room floor like a caged panther. I had spent my entire life around women who bent over backward just to get a second glance from me. Models, heiresses, street girls, they all laughed at my jokes, tolerated my temper, and lined up for a chance to be in my bed.And then comes Madison O’Connell.A twenty year old girl who looked at me like I was something sticky she had just stepped on in the street. A girl who had the nerve to stand in my kitchen, in a dres

    MADISONThe private elevator hummed as it shot upward to the penthouse suite of the Grand Neil Tower. The silence inside the glass cab was thick, heavy, and suffocating.I stood in the corner, holding the heavy train of my ivory satin gown over my arm. Beside me, Jade stood with his hands shoved deep into his trousers pockets, his bow tie undone and dangling around his unbuttoned collar. He hadn't spoken a single word to me during the endless two hour reception, nor during the silent limousine ride from the venue. He had simply drank his scotch, ignored the high society well wishers, and stared out the tinted window like a man being dragged to an execution.A soft chime signaled our arrival, and the brass accented doors slid open to reveal a sprawling, minimalist penthouse.It was a masterpiece of cold, modern architecture: polished charcoal grey concrete floors, floor to ceiling glass walls showcasing the glittering skyline, and dark leather furniture that looked more like sculpted a

    MADISONThe cathedral was suffocatingly quiet, save for the low, haunting chords of the pipe organ echoing off the gothic stone arches.White lilies acres of them, cut fresh from private greenhouses lined the aisle, their sweet, heavy scent mixing with the stale odor of centuries-old stone and candle wax. Hundreds of high society eyes were locked on me: corrupt politicians, corporate raiders, tech moguls, and gossip columnists, all dressed in tailored black tie, watching the tragic sacrifice of the O’Connell family’s golden child.My mother adjusted my lace veil one last time before stepping back into her pew. Her face was serene, a picture of maternal pride, but her hand had gripped my forearm seconds earlier with a silent, bruising warning: Smile. Don't embarrass us.My dress was a masterwork of haute couture, heavy ivory satin trailing six feet behind me, delicate lace sleeves covering my arms, and a tight, boned corset that made every breath feel like a victory over suffocation. I

    JADEThe obsidian glass doors of the Neil Tower penthouse suite slammed shut behind me with a heavy, pressurized thud, cutting off the muted roar of the city fifty floors below.My father didn't even bother turning around from the floor to ceiling windows overlooking the skyline. He stood with a crystal tumbler of scotch resting lightly in his grip, looking like a king evaluating an empire he had built on broken bones and hostile takeovers."You're twenty minutes late, Jade," Julian Neil said, his voice smooth, deep, and devoid of any paternal warmth."I was busy," I growled, stepping into the dim, minimalist room. My knuckles were still raw and grease-stained from the garage, my leather jacket smelling of high octane fuel and damp night air. I tossed my car keys onto the glass coffee table, where they landed with a loud, metallic clatter. "Tell me Vance was joking. Tell me you didn't actually sell my life to Marcus O’Connell."My father took a slow sip of his drink before finally tur

    JADEThe roar of the 800-horsepower V8 engine vibrated through my spine as I slammed the gearshift forward, sending the matte-black Nissan GT-R drifting sideways around the sharp hairpin turn of the abandoned industrial docks. Smoke spewed from the rear tires, the screech of rubber against concrete echoing into the damp night air.I straightened the wheel, stomping on the accelerator as I crossed the makeshift finish line, beating the red Supra behind me by three full car lengths.The crowd of street racers, gamblers, and half-naked party girls went wild, their cheers swallowed by the heavy bass thumping from the speakers mounted on the bed of a nearby pickup truck. I threw the car into park, killed the engine, and kicked the driver’s side door open."Another twenty grand in the bag, Neil!" my mechanic, Marcus, shouted over the music, tossing me a cold bottle of beer as I stepped out into the night air.I caught it with one hand, taking a deep swig, the cold alcohol burning down my th

  • Sold to Jade Neil   Chapter One

    MADISONThe grand clock in the foyer of the O’Connell estate struck six, its heavy bronze pendulum swinging with a slow, agonizing precision. To anyone else, the house was a masterpiece of classic architecture, soaring ceilings draped in Venetian crystal chandeliers, marble floors polished to a mirror shine, and gilded archways that whispered of centuries of unyielding wealth.To me, it was simply a very expensive cage."Hold still, Madison," my mother’s voice snapped, sharp and cold as a winter draft.She stood behind me in the grand dressing room, her tailored silk dress immaculate, adjusting the off-the-shoulder neckline of my midnight-blue silk gown. Her manicured fingers were stiff as she smoothed down an invisible wrinkle over my collarbone."Tonight is not the night for your quiet rebellions," she continued, her reflection meeting mine in the gilded mirror. Her eyes, the same icy blue as my own, held no warmth. "You are twenty today. You are no longer a girl to be sheltered in
