LOGINFive years ago, Elena lost everything. Betrayed by her fiancé and her own sister, abandoned by her father, and shattered by her mother’s death, she made one desperate decision… a night with a stranger for ten million dollars. By morning, he was gone. And so was the life she once knew. Now, Elena is back. Stronger, Colder, and with a secret, her four-year-old son. But fate is dicy. Because the man she once spent the night with is none other than Dominic West, the ruthless billionaire who now stands at the top of the city. And worse… She unknowingly walks straight into his world. When Elena takes a job as a nanny in Dominic’s mansion, she never expects the dangerous pull between them. Or the secrets that lies in their encounter.
View MoreElena’s POVThe moment the elderly man stepped toward Lucas, my entire body reacted on instinct.I immediately pulled my son gently behind me, my fingers tightening protectively around his small shoulders as my pulse quickened inside my chest.I did not know these people, I did not understand their family dynamics. And after spending years protecting Lucas from unnecessary attention, judgment, and cruel remarks, my first reaction had been to shield him immediately.Especially in a room filled with wealthy strangers staring at us. But to my surprise, the old man did not look irritated, or offended.If anything, his entire face softened with warmth the closer he got to Lucas.“Well now! Who do we have here?” he muttered slowly, his sharp eyes fixed completely on my son. Lucas peeked out from behind me curiously, his little fingers clutching the side of my dress, and Dominic stepped forward calmly beside us.“Grandfather, this is Lucas,” he explained.“Lucas?” the elderly man repeated
Dominic’s POVI stood near the bottom of the staircase with one hand tucked into my pocket while checking the time on my wristwatch again.Grandfather had already called me twice within the last thirty minutes. That alone told me tonight was going to be exhausting.I already knew Mabel must have gone to complain to him again. There was no other reason he would suddenly insist on a family dinner with that much urgency.A quiet sigh escaped my lips as I loosened the cuff of my sleeve slightly.The mansion remained unusually peaceful tonight.Mrs. Clara and the maids moved quietly through the hallways preparing dinner trays for the staff while soft piano music drifted faintly from the speakers downstairs.But my attention was elsewhere entirely.Upstairs!More specifically inside Elena’s room.The realization alone irritated me slightly.I had spent the entire day at work trying unsuccessfully to stop thinking about her.The way she spoke calmly, the way Nora responded to her, and the wa
Mabel’s POVThe following morning, I stood in front of the mirror adjusting the diamond earrings hanging from my ears while my mind replayed everything that happened the previous night over and over again.The humiliation still burned beneath my skin.Dominic had rejected me again. Not only that, he had done it so coldly, like my touch disgusted him. Like I was some stranger forcing myself into his space instead of the woman who had been engaged to him for the past five years.My fingers tightened around the edge of the vanity table as anger crawled through my chest.At first, I tolerated Dominic’s emotional distance because it did not matter much to me. I still had the mansion, the wealth, the influence, and the West family name attached to me. As long as I remained by Dominic’s side, everybody treated me like royalty, but now Elena had returned.And everything suddenly felt threatened.The way Dominic looked at her unsettled me deeply, and the way he defended her irritated me eve
Mabel’s POVThe moment I stepped fully into the living room, my eyes immediately landed on Dominic and Elena standing far too close to each other again.The sight alone made my chest tighten painfully.Lucas stood beside Elena while Dominic still held Nora comfortably in his arms, and somehow the four of them looked disturbingly natural together like a family.My fingers curled tightly beside me as unease crept deeper into my chest.At first, I thought Elena’s return was nothing more than an inconvenience. A temporary problem I could easily control the same way I always controlled everything around me.But now…Things were beginning to change too quickly. Dominic was paying attention to her, and that very dangerous.The closer he got to Elena, the higher the chances of him eventually discovering the truth about that night five years ago.My breathing became uneven at the thought.For years, I had survived because Dominic lacked solid proof. He suspected things sometimes, but suspicion
Elena’s POVI stood at the center of the busy airport with my eyes scanning the crowd as people hustled past me, dragging luggage, and talking loudly. “Mom,” A small hand tugged at me and called softly, pointing at one of the large TV screens hanging above the baggage claim.He looked up at me wit
Dominic's POVMy eyes opened to the most hammering headache I have ever felt in my entire existence. My head throbbed, and I forced myself to sit up as I searched for my phone. The morning sun pierced through the black curtains, and the car honks from the road echoed through the room. What the he
Elena's POVThe night breeze pierced through my naked body as it blew through the hotel room curtain. His bare hands brushed through my skin in the most erotic way, sending jolts of electricity through my body.“Aaahh!” I moaned loudly as his wet lips sucked the nape of my neck arousing in me desir
Elena's POV.“What have you done? What… What did you do to me?” My voice came out weak and shaky with sweat dripping down my body. My head throbbed with a bad ache as my body shivered uncontrollably.The smugness on my best friend's face, Stella blurred into my vision along the blue light flickering
