"Sign the divorce papers, Nora." I didn't cry. I simply looked at the billionaire husband who had ignored me for three years and made one final demand. "One hundred days, Silas. Move back into my bedroom. Touch me like a man obsessed with his wife. On Day 101, I will sign the papers and walk away." Arrogant and certain, he agreed, assuming it was a desperate plea to use my body to win his heart back. He had no idea what he was walking into. By Day 20, the cold, untouchable CEO is rushing home just to pin me against our bedroom door. By Day 50, he’s pulling me into his lap, whispering breathless, desperate promises in the dark. He is addicted to the friction, using every searing kiss and heavy touch to forcefully brand me as his. He thinks the heated nights we share mean I am finally surrendering. He doesn't know the truth. I’m not using these 100 nights to fall back in love with him. I’m using his counterfeit passion to completely numb my heart. While my body responds to his fire, my soul is freezing over. On Day 100, Silas pours his soul into the most emotionally raw night of my life. He falls asleep holding me tight, entirely convinced his absolute worship has won me back forever. But on Day 101, he wakes up to cold sheets, an empty closet, and a signed contract. His money couldn't buy me. His touch couldn't keep me. Now, the billionaire who thought he was playing a game will burn his empire to the ground to find the wife who gave him her body, but vanished with her soul.

Chapter 1: The Countdown Begins

"You're aware he has a massive crush on you, right?" Jennifer pointed out, a mischievous grin on her face, as we entered her apartment building.

"Who?" I asked, feigning innocence and acting oblivious to whom she was referring to.

"William, obviously. That guy practically drools over you," she teased.

"As if!" I scoffed, brushing off the notion.

"Do you think we got the day off just because?"

"Yeah, because the CEO's daughter happens to be my best friend."

Jennifer and I worked together at Castle Tech, she was the daughter of the famous tech guru "Maxwell Coltmen" and the owner of the company.

You would think having such a rich father would make her an executive but her father had a theory about starting from the bottom, hence making her a junior marketing staff just like the rest of us.

"You know I don't get any privileges for that," she remarked as we got into the elevator, she was right, no one gave her any special treatment, and she was treated just like the rest of us.

"Well, whatever feelings William has, he should better throw it in the trash" I declared,

William was infamous for his perverted and misogynistic views. He often made derogatory comments, asserting that women weren't fit for leadership and should stay beneath him.

"He better!" Jennifer chuckled, she hated William as much as I did but found it funny to tease me about the way he behaved around me.

"Listen, please don't tease me about William and his silly crush in front of Jake, you know how jealous he gets" I pleaded, as the elevator rang, and the automated doors opened.

My boyfriend Jake and Jennifer were family friends, they lived in the same building their fathers co-owned.

Jake was possessive and jealous, he was the reason I never had male friends.

"Jake has no right to be jealous" Jennifer spat, getting out of the elevator, as I followed.

"Besides, I am not following you to his apartment today, I have to get ready for the party" she danced.

Jennifer and I were opposites, while she loved going to parties and hooking up with random strangers, I preferred to stay at home.

"I can't believe you are not attending the party" she said, stopping halfway through the hall, castle tech was having a masked app launch party, which was compulsory for all staff.

Knowing I had Jennifer by my side, I was an exception to such rules.

"I would rather spend my weekend with my boyfriend" I bragged, I knew how much she disliked my relationship with Jake but I was happy, and her opinion didn't matter.

"I think he's going to propose" I whispered,

"I saw a ring by his bedside the other day" I blushed at the thought of spending the rest of my life with him, he was perfect.

"And you are going to say yes?" Jennifer asked the disappointment on her face was evident.

"Of course"

"Listen Em, you know Jake is a horn dog right?? He sleeps with everything on a skirt" she tried to warn but I shook my head.

"That was his past" I corrected, Jake had told me all about his past and I was certain he had changed.

"Come on Em, I am his neighbour, he hasn't changed," she said, getting closer to me, to hold my hand but I took a step away from her.

"Please stop it Jen, I don't want to hear it, I know how unforgiving you are" I said, Jennifer was unforgiving, she judged everyone too quickly and she always had a hard time changing her mind about what she thought.

"Remember how you judged me too" I reminded her, when we first met she thought I was boring.

"Well I wasn't wrong, you are boring" she teased, chuckling at her joke.

"Please give Jake the same chance, he isn't the guy you knew in college or high school" I pleaded on my boyfriend's behalf, I wanted everyone to see Jake how I saw him, as an angel.

Jennifer sighed, she knew my mind was made up and I could see so was her's.

"if I marry him, I am sure you would love him for my sake" I grind at her and she nods smiling faintly.

"See you when I get back" she said walking ahead of me and going straight to her door, it was clear she was really not in support of it, but it was.

I nodded stopping at Jake's door, which was just a few steps opposite her's.

Jake had given me a key to his house as a show of how serious he was about me, I rarely used it but it felt nice knowing I could whenever I wanted to.

I had a romantic evening planned out for us, I was sure he was still at work, hence I planned to clean up and set up the place nicely.

I looked at the decorations I had in my bag, smiling as I envisioned the romantic setting

I was going to let him take my virginity today, I promised myself to stay a virgin until marriage, but Jake was worth it. He was kind and patient

He made me feel safe enough to lose my most prized possession. I was putting on a sexy red lingerie I got recently and I just couldn't wait to show him.

I pulled out the key card from my bag, swiped it at the door, a beep sound followed as the door opened.

I pushed open the door, walking in to find a messy house, there were clothes everywhere.

I bent over to pick up the clothes when I noticed a female dress.

Confused I stared keenly at the dress. "What is this," I thought, fighting off assumption.

Ignoring the dress and panties laying on the floor of the living room, I decided to walk further into the house, where the loud sound of a shaking headboard and loud moans filled the air.

I approached the source of the commotion, only to be confronted by a scene beyond shocking.

There lay my boyfriend Jake, unclothed and reclined, with Jennifer's sister astride him. My heart shattered at the spectacle, her impassioned moans mingling with the resounding smacks against her exposed skin.

In the midst of their intimate engagement, I became an unnoticed witness to the betrayal. As she taunted.

"I bet your boring girlfriend doesn't even know how to work you like this"

"No" he moaned, his agreement feeling like a knife stabbed through my chest.
