“I do.” Kendra’s voice was soft, and the look on her face spoke a billion words. She was incredibly nervous, and honestly, I couldn’t blame her. She was getting married to a guy she barely knew.

“I now pronounce you husband and wife,” the officiant declared. “You may now kiss the bride.”

I gently pulled Kendra toward me. She closed her eyes, preparing herself for the kiss. I placed my hand on the small of her back and closed my eyes the moment my lips met hers.

I thought our kiss would be more of a brush, but as our lips met, I realized that I didn’t want to let go. She tasted so good, like her lips were made to be kissed by no one else but me.

When she moved away from me, her cheeks looked more pink, causing me to smirk. She looked adorable when she blushed.

Our reception was a blur. I danced with Kendra three times, and she spent most of the evening dancing with her best friends. I think their presence made the entire day easier for her.

I wasn’t surprised when I found o

  • The Billionaire’s Devious Wife   Chapter Twenty: Declan

    One look at my wife made me forget how to breathe properly. Tonight, she was dressed in a sparkling indigo dress that would never look that good on any woman but her.“You’re dressed in my favorite color,” I commented with a smile, silently admiring every inch of her body. Kendra Davenport was a masterpiece.“I didn’t notice I was wearing your favorite color,” she smirked, walking over to me. She had a tie in her hands that matched the color of her dress.“You were planning to surprise me, right?” I chuckled as she wrapped the tie around my neck and started tying it.When I asked about the color of her dress a few days ago to match my tie with it, she told me she was going to get it for me. I asked her last night if she had gotten it for me, and she told me I was only going to see it right before we left the house.“Do you like the surprise?” She was so close to me, and all I wanted was to kiss her plump lips. I had been craving them like crazy ever since we kissed on the couch almost

  • The Billionaire’s Devious Wife   Chapter Nineteen: Kendra

    My heart threatened to burst. No one had cared about me like that since Mom’s death. The Davenports hadn’t left me on my own ever since I had the surgery.When I woke up at the hospital yesterday, I found Declan, Lana, and Meryl with me in the room. Their presence took away all the fear I had in my heart.Mom died in the OR when I was young, and since then, I absolutely despised hospitals. I knew that she was terminally ill, and the surgery wasn’t the main cause of her death, but that didn’t stop me from hating hospitals.“I promise I’m fine. You don’t need to mess up your schedule for me,” I tried to convince Meryl not to stay to take care of me, but she wasn’t having it.“I’m not messing up anything. Stop worrying, and just rest,” she said as Declan helped me lie down on the couch.“Can you just focus on recovery and nothing else? Nobody is bothered by taking care of you,” Declan told me, looking me in the eyes.My heart raced whenever he looked at me like that. It was hard not to f

  • The Billionaire’s Devious Wife   Chapter Eighteen: Declan

    I headed to the kitchen when I woke up, thinking I’d find Kendra there, but to my surprise, I didn’t. Ten days ago, we agreed to be friends, and while I didn’t know how to be friends with someone I wanted to kiss whenever I saw them, the deal was a good start.I made my way back upstairs and headed to her room to see if she was awake. She told me last night she was going to wake up early because she had a meeting. Maybe she slept in.I knocked on her door and waited for her to give me the cue to walk in, but she didn’t. I opened the door slowly and found her curled up on the bed.I approached her and frowned when I saw her clutching her stomach tightly. What was wrong with her?“Kendra,” I said in a soft voice, not wanting to startle her if she was asleep. Was she a light sleeper?“Yes.” The sound she made was more of a whimper.“What’s going on, flame?” I sat down beside her, suddenly worried. She was okay yesterday. What happened?“My stomach hurts a lot.” She sniffed, hugging her s

    A knock on my door made me zone out of the state of concentration I had been in for a while.“Come in,” I said, getting up from the stool.I was surprised when Declan walked into my room because I wasn’t used to him coming here. For the past two weeks, we had been on good terms. We didn’t talk much; however, when we did, it was done in a friendly manner. I even found myself enjoying our small conversations.“Hi,” he said with a small smile. He was dressed casually in some sweatpants and a dark blue T-shirt.“Hey.” I smiled back, heading towards him.“Have you been drawing?” he wondered, and I nodded. It had been a while since Lana mentioned me on her account, and I already had three paintings that I needed to finish within this month—not including the one I promised Ares.“I want to show you something,” he said, and I wasn’t sure if I was imagining things, but Declan looked slightly nervous.Why would he?“Sure,” I said.“Come with me.” I expected him to show me something on his pho

  • The Billionaire’s Devious Wife   Chapter Sixteen: Declan

    I was in the living room, waiting for Kendra to finish getting ready. She told me her dress was emerald green, and I ended up buying a new tie that matched its color because I didn’t have a matching tie.I heard the sound of her heels against the floor, so I stood up. When I turned around, my heart skipped a beat. She didn’t just look beautiful—she was an absolute goddess.Her dress perfectly hugged her body, making me wonder if it was possible to look this good. The beaded bodice and the sleek satin skirt made her glow. The dress was long, reaching the floor, and it had a slit that gave the design a sensual touch.“You’ve been staring for a little while. Should I be worried?” I liked the playfulness in her voice.“You look stunning,” I said, unable to prevent myself from smiling as she walked toward me.“You look good, too.” Her rose-tinted cheeks got pinker. “Your tie is exactly the same shade as my dress.” Her hazel eyes were bright as she looked at me.“It took me a while to find

    He kissed her.He kissed her against her will.That reason was enough to make me break every finger on his hands. But Kendra wasn’t just trying to fight one person. There were two of them—two perpetrators that deserved to rot in hell. I saw the way she was dragged by her hair by one of them, and I lost it. Nobody touched my wife and survived my wrath. She begged them not to take her necklace, and they didn’t give a damn about her. I made sure to make them pay for all the mistakes they made.It took the private detective I hired a couple of days to track them down, and I was happy that I had the necklace.Upon learning that my men caught them, I didn’t waste time and headed straight to the warehouse where they were held. I could only watch the footage once, and it was enough to make me ready to rip them into pieces.Had it not been for my men, I would have killed them.When Kendra told me about what happened, I was furious, but I desperately tried not to lose it in front of her.
