Sylas’ POV

“We have found her.”

For a second, the world stopped, then, it snapped back into motion all at once as I realized what his words meant.

“Where?” I demanded, already moving towards him.

The guard didn’t waste time. “At the end of the street leading to the estate. We found her just outside the gates.”

The first emotion I felt was relief. It was sharp and immediate. But anger followed soon after,

Cassian. Of course, he would bring her back like that. This was a message and a warning.

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   READY TO WAGE WAR

    Sylas' POV:"Boss, we found him."The words echoed through the phone. And for a moment, I didn't move, breathe or think.Beside me, Vera must have heard him through the phone, because she had gone completely still.“What did you say?” I asked, as I felt my pulse begin to hammer hard against my ribs.It had taken months of chasing shadows, of dodging attacks and kidnappings. Months of watching Cassian smiling as he tried to take me down, and now, I had finally got him."Boss?" The commander's voice pulled me back. “I said, we have found him.”I sat up in bed immediately, and every single trace of exhaustion in my body vanished completely."Listen to me carefully." I started, my mind already spinning as I thought about what next I needed to do. “You are not to engage,” I ordered, my voice colder than I intended."Sir?" the commander’s tone was confused,"Do not engage," I repeated, “And do not let Cassian or any of his men know that they have been found.”The moment I said that, the com

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   FINALLY FOUND!

    Sylas' POVWith a frown on my face, I took out my phone and glanced down at the screen. It was a call from one of my field commanders. My frown deepened as I answered,"What is it?" I hissed,"Boss." His voice was low and urgent enough that I immediately knew that he had important news for me. "We've got movement," he continued before I could ask more.I straightened, and Vera stared at me with raised brows."What kind of movement?" I asked, a hint of hope rising within me,"Just like you ordered, we have been tracking around the area Cassian was last found in,”My grip tightened around the phone as I cut him off before he went off on a last tirade, "And?" I hissed, “What did you find?”"We have started tracking a couple of guys that we know are very close to Cassian,” he started, “I just called to tell you that we were getting very close.”For the first time all evening, something close to satisfaction began to stir up within me. The news was not enough to brighten my day. Vera had d

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   THE CALL!

    Sylas' POVIt took a long time for me to finish up, so by the time I left Gold Corp, night had already begun to settle slowly over the city. So, when I finally stepped out of the company doors, most people would have already gone home hours ago.But I wasn’t like most people. After all, most people didn’t have a murderous brother who was out to get them and destroy their entire empire.With a frown on my face, I loosened my tie as I walked up to the open back door of my car and stepped in. The moment I sat down and all the exhaustion left my body.All day, I had been thinking about Cassian, and even now, I could still see his smug face sitting across from my desk. I could even still hear his voice, and remember the arrogance in his tone.My jaw tightened, but at least now, I had hope. Because I had finally found a trail leading straight to him. And when I found him, all of this would end.One way or another, I was going to get rid of him.I spent the entire ride home in silence. Even

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   WE HAVE HIM

    Sylas' POV:The moment the office door shut behind Cassian, my smile disappeared off my face, and so did every trace of satisfaction that I had felt.Now that Cassian was gone, I could actually think and process all that had just happened in the last few minutes. The reality of it all hit me at once, and I realized just how close I had come to death.My brother had walked into my company, walked right into my office, sat in my chair, and somehow, he had managed to do all of that with a straight face. And it wasn’t because he was strong. No, it was because my security had either failed, or had betrayed me.Either scenario was enough for me to go nuclear.My jaw tightened as my grip on the gun tightened. With a frown on my face, I looked down and stared at the gun for a couple of seconds before gently laying it down, then, with that same focused gaze, I reached for my phone and dialed a cell.The phone rang once before immediately connecting."Boss?" A man’s voice filled the room,"Cass

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   THE G*N

    Sylas' POV:For the second time in less than ten minutes, my brother had managed to surprise me. A gun? Since when did Cassian carry a gun on his body? He had never been one who liked to get his hands dirty.I knew how hard it had been for my father to teach Cas how to use a gun. The fact that Cassian would even bring a gun with him was enough of a shock to stop me in my tracks.The shock only lasted a moment before it was wiped off my a boiling rage that began to rise up within me. How dare he? How dare Cassian pull a gun on me inside my own office? In my company and in my city?For a split second, I stared at the weapon pointed directly at my chest with rage in my eyes. Years of dealing with Cassian had taught me one thing: you were never supposed to react the way he expected you to.If you did that, then you were going to fall into his hands. So, instead of panicking, I just crossed my arms, looked up and stared right in his eyes as I slowly straightened my suit,"So, Cas, is this

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   THE GUN

    Sylas' POVThe morning was great. I had woken up earlier with Vera in my hands and a smile on my face, and I just knew it was going to get even better.Well, I was wrong.I could sense that something was wrong when I had walked into the top floor, but I had been far too lost reminiscing about Vera to care about it. So, when I had walked into my office and spotted Cassian sitting in my chair, I had genuinely thought I was either seeing a ghost or having a hallucination.Because, quite frankly, those things made more sense than Cassian actually being in my office.He sat in my chair with an extravagant bearing and a warm smile on his face, as though he actually owned the place. I didn’t know what to think or feel as I came to terms with the fact that he was actually, finally in front of me.This was the man who had spent years turning himself into a cancer for everything our family had built over the years, the man who had kidnapped my wife and tried to tear my life apart.And yet, here

    Sylas’ POVI frowned as I drove my car into the factory. The warehouse and its surroundings smelled like rust, smoke, and blood.It was a scent I did not like, but it was also a scent I respected. Because it meant nobody here was pretending to be civilized. We all knew who we were, and that meant n

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   DINNER WITH THE ENEMY

    I had no plans of having dinner outside, and I also did not have any plans of saying yes if I had been asked. And it wasn’t because I did not like Naeris. No, it was the opposite. Over the past couple of days, Naeris had slipped naturally into my routine and life. I am used to her now, and I could

    Naeris’ POVNaeris has had a lot of experience over the years. Hell, she had infiltrated far harder companies than this. She had infiltrated government offices, security firms and even law firms.

    Naeris’ POVWhen Naeris had been given the job to be a corporate spy, she had expected the executive she was supposed to be monitoring, Vera Gold, to be stupid.
