Cassian’s POV:

The report I had been expecting came in just after sunrise. The very first thing that alerted me to the fact that something was wrong was when the report did not come from Naeris, or from someone higher placed in the company. No, I had woken up this morning, checked my phone and immediately frowned.

The report I had gotten was from someone so lower placed in the company that I had even forgotten the fact that they existed.

And that was why I was shocked when I read the message. S

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   THE MESSAGE

    CASSIAN'S POV The phone line beeped for a second before Sylas answered.“Hello.” “Hey brother.” I moved away from the spot where I stood. “Miss me?”“Cassian.” His voice turned icy.“No need to sound so grumpy, it’ll make you age fast…”“You have Vera, don't you?” He cut me off.I exhaled deeply. “You're boring, I can't even have one straight conversation with you.”“Do you have my wife?!” His voice echoed through the cell line.“Hang on a second.” I walked over to the far end of the room where Vera had been tied up.On my signal, Sarah tore off the clothe tied to her mouth.“It's your husband,” i whispered, moving the phone closer to her ear.“Babe?” She called in a cracked voice.“Vera, are you alright? Did they hurt you?” “I…”I didn't give her time to speak before pulling the phone back. “Time up.”“Cassian, you're going too far this time.” Sylas grunted.“Am I?” I turned towards the window with a smirk. “I'm the one you have issues with, why drag my wife into it?” His anger

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   WHERE'S MY WIFE

    SYLA’S POV “Boss, we've set a new trail, we should be able to get to his new location soon.” Elias said over the phone.I mumbled in reply before hanging up the call.Cassian had fooled me. He had purposely set such a stupid trap and I fell into it blindly.It should've struck me the moment they got his location without much struggle, he wasn't dumb to get caught so easily.I gritted my teeth in anger as I stared outside the car window. This would be the last time I would let him get away with anything.I headed straight to my bedroom when I got home. I had to keep Vera updated on what happened, I needed to make new plans to ensure her safety because Cassian was getting more cunning by the minute.“Babe.” I called, heading down the stairs again. She wasn't in the bedroom, nor had she come to acknowledge my return. “Vera.” I called, hurrying into the kitchen. She still wasn't there.I dialed her number on my phone, and only then did I realise that she had left me a few missed calls

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   SECOND ABDUCTION

    VERA’S POVA lump formed in my throat as the men approached the car. At that moment, every instinct screamed at me to run, to find a way out of this goddamn situation. But I failed to move even a muscle.“Sarah..” I turned to her again, but before I could say a word, the men yanked out of the car aggressively and dragged towards the warehouse.“Help!” I screamed, desperately trying to wriggle myself from their grip. “Somebody help me!” “Shut your hole.” Sarah snapped behind me.I didn't listen to her, I had no intentions to. I kept screaming my lungs out, even though I observed that the area was isolated.The men hurled me into a dark room. I ran behind them as soon as they did, and because I had a slim figure, I was able to slip out and past them.“Hey!” The men pursued me from behind while I ran with every ounce of energy in my body.I had mapped the area when they first dragged me past, even though I had been screaming.There was an open exit at the fence area, if I could get o

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   THE TRAITOR

    Vera's POVI woke up that morning with no idea the word had already gone out to begin."Where's Marta?"The maid who usually brought my tea at ten sharp was nowhere in the kitchen, and neither was the second girl who normally trailed behind her. I stood in the doorway with my robe still tied loose at the waist, looking at an empty counter where a tray should have been sitting."She was let go, ma'am." One of the newer guards, a man I didn't recognize, answered without quite meeting my eyes. "Reassignment, I believe.""Reassigned where?"He didn't answer that one. He just gave a small nod and walked off toward the east hallway, leaving me standing there with a question I couldn't shake loose.I told myself it didn't mean anything. Staff came and went, especially with Sylas tightening security every other week since Cassian showed his face again. But Marta had been with the estate longer than I had. She wasn't the kind of person you reassigned without warning.I tried Sylas's phone for

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   CASSIAN'S LAST MOVE

    Cassian's POVWord of the raid reached me before Sylas had even finished counting the guns he'd found."Have they found the factory yet?"I asked it without looking up from the whiskey I was pouring, that was because I already knew the answer. My phone buzzed against the counter, a single text from a man I paid too well to ever be late with an update popped up."They're inside, nothing is there."I smiled and took a sip.Sylas was a lot of things. Ruthless and smart, in the way rich men are smart when other people do the actual thinking for them. But predictable, that was the word for it. Predictable in a way that made all of this almost too easy to carry out.He'd spent weeks chasing a building I hadn't set foot in since I bled a hole through it on purpose. Torn wiring, forged shipping logs, and a laptop left open with just enough on it to send him into a panic. I built that factory to be found. I built it to be believed.My father used to say I never finished anything. Funny, consid

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   THE EMPTY FACTORY

    Sylas' POV"Vault 7 is locked down," Lance said through the radio, his voice sharp against the static. "But boss, whoever got in has already got out."I didn't answer him right away, my eyes were fixed on the laptop which was still glowing on the desk in front of me, the email about the vault burning itself into my memory. Cassian hadn't just walked into my company, he had walked into the one place I had never told him existed before."Keep the sweep going," I finally said. "I want every room in this building checked before we leave.""Copy that."I left the office and moved down the corridor with Marcus and two others behind me, my flashlight cutting through the dark in sharp, restless arcs. The deeper we went, the more the place started to feel less like an abandoned building and more like a nest someone had only just crawled out of.We found the first room behind a stack of rusted shelving that didn't match the rest of the factory. Marcus noticed it before I did, the way the shelf

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   BROTHER-IN-LAW

    The very first thing I felt when I woke up was pain, not confusion or even fear, just pain. The pain was so overwhelming that it felt like my entire body had been dragged through broken, jagged glass.A groan tore from my throat before I could stop it. I tried to open my eyes, but it hurt, even my

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   GETTING KIDNAPPED

    The moment I realized that we were being shot at, the world shattered,“Hold on,” Joe screamed, his voice cut through my thoughts as he jerked the car towards the left.Another gunshot rang through the air. This time, it was louder and far closer. I even felt the car shoulder the moment the bullet

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   WE NEED TO TALK

    Hours later, when I finally left the boardroom, I felt different. I was no longer overwhelmed or intimidated when I stared at the executives. I had given out a final speech and the room had emptied immediately after.The tension still clung tightly to the air, and no one dared to challenge me again

  • The Billionaire’s Contract Bride   MY WORD IS LAW

    “I’m Vera Gold,” I said clearly and deliberately, “Your new CEO.”Silence descended around us. This was not the kid that lingered politely, this was the kind that cracked something open.For a moment, no one moved or even reacted to my words. Then, screams filled the lot.“That’s impossible.” The s
