Damian's phone buzzed on the window counter, breaking the couple's embrace. He grabbed the phone and swiped the screen to answer the incoming call. "Hello?" His voice lowered, almost a growl.

Chloe watched as his expression shifted, the color draining from his face. His eyes, sharp and bright moments before, dulled with each word spoken on the other end. His free hand trembled as he paced the room.

"What?" His voice cracked, barely above a whisper. He stopped in his tracks, eyes wide, staring at the window beyond the room.

The call ended, and Damian stood motionless, the phone still pressed to his ear as if he had been turned to stone. Slowly, he lowered his hand, his grip on the phone slackening until it almost slipped from his fingers. His shoulders sagged, and he stared at Chloe, his face ghostly pale, eyes hollow.

A chill ran down Chloe's spine when she saw his reaction. "What happened?" she asked, already fearing the worst.

"My mother is dead."

"You're joking, right?!" Chloe blin

  • The Billionaire's Brutal Seduction   Chapter 53: Intimate Possession

    Chloe’s eyes swept over the sprawl of dresses, heels, and bags, landing on a sheer lace minidress. She paired it with stilettos that would make her legs appear to go on forever and a sleek Chanel bag that exuded understated power.Damian’s fingers glided along Chloe’s arm, his words a low growl. “Wear the dress bare. No bra. No panties.”She recalled The Church and the women there—silk stockings, soft feathers, rhinestone-encrusted heels, and bare, shiny breasts, round and full. She bit her lip, nodding at the thrill of going bare for him under that teasing dress. He took the velvet box from her, unlocked it, and removed the diamond-studded collar. His fierce gaze locked on hers as he fastened it around her neck. “Perfect,” he growled, lips grazing her throat, nipping and sucking.Chloe stroked his hard shoulders as she looked up at him. “Dami, I love you.”“I love you too, babe. With every damn piece of my heart.”Chloe smoothed her dress, her fingers trailing over the delicate lace

  • The Billionaire's Brutal Seduction   Chapter 52: Her Dom, Her Desire

    Chloe slung her leather jacket over a chair, her eyes sweeping the living room. “Whoa. Did a Chanel store get drunk and throw up in here?”Lisa froze beside her, gawking at the sprawl of designer handbags, stilettos, and dresses that screamed rent money amid a sea of white roses. Diva bounded over, tail whipping, knocking a vase to the floor with a crash before pawing Lisa’s thigh. “Well, damn,” she said, dusting off her leopard print pantsuit. “I shouldn’t be surprised, but all this…”Vivianne’s voice sailed across the air, phone glued to her ear. “No, the Scott Foundation gala’s next month. Fisher’s Catering should be locked in. No? Fix it.” She paced, Louboutins clicking against marble, her free hand on her hip.A familiar velvet box with a unique lock rested on the coffee table next to a monogrammed leather clutch. Chloe picked it up, heart skipping a beat at the memory of the diamond-studded collar inside.“Chanel, Prada, LV, and Hermès?” Lisa’s lash extensions fluttered, coffee

    Damian swiped the call. “Vivianne, what’s up?”“Good morning, Mister Scott. I’ve cleared your schedule for the next few days so you can attend your mother’s funeral tomorrow. Your father set it for the morning. Any specific instructions?Damian’s jaw tightened. “Thanks, Viv. Push my meeting with Vera and Gemma Rochefort to tomorrow afternoon. Both need to be there to wrap up old business. Also, send me the documents I flagged last week.”“Got it, sir. One more thing, will you be attending Grant Rochefort’s funeral today?”“No,” Damian replied. “Send her a card and flowers. I’m prioritizing my own matters. Get me Vera’s paperwork for our meeting with Gemma.”“I’m onto it.”Damian ended the call and turned to Chloe, the lines between his brows softening. “We’re meeting Dad soon to see my mother’s body.”Chloe nodded, gently stroking his arm.***The couple strode toward the end of the hospital morgue’s hallway, where Alistair and Nick waited under the fluorescent lights’ sterile glow.

  • The Billionaire's Brutal Seduction   Chapter 50: Daddy's Dirty Rules

    Sunlight spilled through the gauzy curtains, painting the bedroom in soft gold. Damian reached for Chloe, his fingers grazing empty silk sheets, cool where her warmth should’ve been. Her side still held the faint scent of her Dior perfume. He slid from the bed, muscles flexing as he tugged a black robe over his sculpted frame.The mansion’s silence pressed him as he padded through the hallways, the only sound being the heating system’s faint hum. He wandered through the living room, where Diva slept on her plush bed, her ears pricking slightly.His frown eased into a smile when he heard water splashing as he approached the indoor pool in the other wing. He paused at the glass doors. Chloe glided through the water, her naked body an erotic sight, dark hair streaming like ink. Light from the floor-to-ceiling windows caught the curve of her shoulder, which glistened with water droplets.Damian’s breath hitched, and a hot desire burned within him. His robe hit the tile with a soft thud. H

  • The Billionaire's Brutal Seduction   Chapter 48: A Mother's Sins

    Damian and Chloe stood before a grand three-story mansion, its imposing presence magnified by the sprawling tennis court and swimming pool, which glistened under the afternoon sun. Nestled in one of Lester Harbor's most affluent neighborhoods, the colossal estate exuded an air of arrogance over the other houses.Damian stepped forward, his hand steady as he inserted the key into the thick, intricately carved Balinese teak door. It creaked when he pushed it open, the sound echoing through the vast entryway—a haunting reminder of his sad past."Welcome to what used to be my mother's house," he said, his tone friendly yet laced with a hint of sarcasm. He smiled wryly and gestured for Chloe to step inside.Her eyes widened as she walked through the gold-trimmed Art Deco hallway, her breath catching at the sight of the enormous living room. Hand-crafted furniture, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a glass staircase spiraling to the second floor's lofty heights reflected Saira Quinn's extravaga
