I knew something was absolutely amiss.

I could feel it.

But I could not point out just what.

Until the day before our flight back, I spotted it.

"Xandy..." I called out to him as discreetly as I could. We were at the beach, sunbathing. I had been reading work emails before Xander confiscated my phone and laid down on top of it. So I had nothing else to do than people-watch.

"Yes, baby?" He looked up from the book he had picked up from a souvenir store. I never knew he was into reading. Honestly, I found that so hot!

Obviously, I was never going to say that out loud because then the great Xander King would be insufferable.

"Someone is photographing us." I muttered, trying to not make it more obvious as I told him where to look.

"Let them." He murmured nonchalantly as he turned a page. "It's not like we are doing something illegal. All we are doing is enjoying the evening sun of Seychelles one last time. And that too, like any other couple on their honeymoon."

I sighed.

  • The Billionaire Playboy's Contract Wife    50. ~ R I V E R ~

    ||||"Can you please stop working?" I looked over at Xander, who was staring at me with all things dirty in his mind. I ignored him. I planned to ignore him the whole flight. And when we get back—sure, when we are back in the office, I won't be able to do that since I'm his PA at work. But at home, he was getting the silent treatment from me."Baby, you're being a little overdramatic right now," he said in his most saccharine voice ever.It was sweet enough that the air hostess, who frequently worked with his jet during his business trips, looked over at him as if he had grown two heads. I could not blame her. This new Xander was like a museum exhibit. Everyone was curious what was going on with him. Well, most people thought that I was what was going on with him. It was only I who knew what was actually happening.Xander looked over at the hostess and shrugged."Do you think asking your wife to... put on a dress of your choice is such a bad thing?""You don't need to answer that," I

    |||||I could get used to this. Incredible sex. Wonderful and stimulating conversation. And a fucking splendid view when I wake up. I had to give it to myself - I could not have chosen a better person to be my wife. Contract wife, yes. But if everything goes well, then I was willing to maybe extend the duration of the contract. As I watched her beautiful chest rise and fall, her features relaxed, sleeping a dreamless sleep, a little voice in me suggested that maybe I should tell her about the hidden clause in our contract - the hidden clause for my inheritance. A child. But I could not do that. I was at war with myself. Because if I revealed it to her and then she disagreed with having a baby with me, then everything would go downhill.I knew what I was doing was not right. And that I was more or less trapping her if I went and switched her birth control.But what she won't know wouldn't hurt her. Besides, I would give her the kind of life that no one else could ever give h

    ||||“Dave?” My stupid contract husband hissed as if i was in contact with one of his rivals or something. Xander was breathing down my neck as I stared at the ringing phone. “Why the fuck is he facetiming you?” He asked, his voice sounding so strained that I started getting flashbacks of his anger issues. “Well, I would not know unless I picked the call, now would I?” I rolled my eyes, muting the call and placing it back on the table with its face down. I turned to face him, narrowing my eyes at the over-possessive Alpha male with his taut facial muscles and flared nostrils. “Would you have preferred if I had picked the call?” “I would have preferred it if you took the call in front of me.” He said.All signs of the playful, flirty Xander were gone in the snap of a finger. It was almost frightening. “I don't plan to ever pick his calls.” I said with finality, squaring my shoulders as I stared forward at the silhouette of the waves lapping at the shore, trying to focus on its me

    |||||“I am starving! Let's get going!” I exclaimed as I stepped out into the poolside, stretching myself. River was on one of the loungers, typing away on her phone. She wore a simple teal sun dress with floral patterns and the frown on her face did not match with her look at all. “Are you working on our honeymoon?” I asked as I sauntered over to her, sitting right next to her, our knees bumping. “I am surprised workaholic Xander King has not checked his mails once since we got on that plane.” She murmured. I peered at what she was doing. I raised a brow. “Why are you cramming meetings into the week after we get back? Do you want to undo all the de-stressing that I did here?" I asked as I frowned at the endless back-to-back meetings that she filled my next two weeks with. "My job as your PA is to make sure that your work does not get affected in any way due to your personal engagements." She said mechanically, swiping to the mail app to go through whatever updates the departm

    |||||You know what's hotter than fucking your wife?Wanting to fuck her in the middle of a hiking trail because of that sexy ass of hers. The plan was to fuck her at the top but this woman was making it - me - harder by the minute."I'm tired." I complained, leaning against a tree and watching as she took the lead.She was dressed in those shorts that hugged her ass so perfectly that my mouth watered and I had to fight the urge to grab her and fuck her right there.I knew for a fact that River would probably knee me in the balls if I tried that right now. I was pretty sure she would do the same when I would try to do it at the top, but that was not going to stop me from trying.I didn't know whether she knew what I was planning when I proposed ditching the guide and was just playing along or if she was just used to facilitating every single whim of mine as my personal assistant.Whatever be the reason, I was going to make sure that her decision would be worth our while."Oh come on,
