The Billionaire’s Emergency Bride Chapter 39
UninvitedSORENI sat back in my chair and watched her.Talia stood at that table like she had always belonged there. Her voice stayed steady, her ideas were sharp and practical, she did not rush and she did not stumble.She simply took the room and made it listen. Pride settled deep in my chest real pride, the kind I rarely felt for anyone.She looked like she had been made for this world. For the pressure, for the game and for me.When she finished and sat down again the change in the room was clear. Uncertainty had become something, like admiration.Even the people who still didn't like the marriage couldn't deny what she had just done. I stayed calm on the outside.Under the table my hand touched hers for a short moment. She pressed back.The rest of the meeting moved faster after that. Numbers were discussed. Timelines adjusted.Arthur stayed quiet for a while, but the tightness in his jaw told me everything.He had come ready to tear her down and criticize her. Instead she had s

Proving Her PlaceTALIAThe car ride to the office that morning was not the same.The city was passing by the tinted windows in a blur like it always does when there is a lot of traffic, something about the air inside the car felt different.Soren was sitting beside me really calm with one hand on the steering wheel and the other sometimes touching the gear shift even though the car handled most of the work itself.He was still touching the gear shift every now and then.He kept looking at me for a second or two at a time. We did not talk for a while.Then Soren reached over and put his hand on top of my hand for a moment. His hand was warm and it felt nice on my skin.“You’re ready for this,” he said. His voice was steady and sure, the same tone he used when he was stating a fact rather than offering comfort.“The board will try to rattle you. Arthur will try the hardest. Don’t let them. You belong in that room just as much as any of them.”I nodded, my stomach was still all tied up

Morning Deal TALIA Morning light slipped through the curtains in soft golden lines. I woke up slowly, my body still heavy and warm from last night. The sheets felt smooth against my skin, and for a few seconds I just lay there, eyes half-closed, letting the quiet settle around me. The handcuffs were gone. My wrists felt a little tender, but nothing hurt.I turned my head and saw Soren already awake. He sat on the edge of the bed, pulling on a shirt. The muscles in his back shifted under the fabric as he moved. When he noticed my eyes open, he glanced over and gave me a small, knowing look. My cheeks heated up right away.Everything from the night before rushed back— the handcuffs, his mouth on my feet, the way he had eaten me out so messily and thoroughly until I came hard against his tongue.I could still feel the ghost of it between my legs, a dull, pleasant ache that made me shift under the covers. I sat up and pulled the sheet higher over my chest, suddenly shy. “Morning,”

Always in ChargeTALIAThe heavy heat of Soren's mouth around my toes made my whole body shake.He sucked gently like he had all the time in the world, his tongue moving over every spot.The soft sounds he made were wet and hungry. Filled the quiet room.My wrists pulled against the handcuffs with every shiver.I was wet. The wetness between my thighs felt slick and clear and I knew he could probably smell how turned on I was.I tried to stay in control. This was still part of my plan.I needed him to listen. I needed that deal. So I pulled my foot away from his mouth, even though my body screamed at me not to.“Enough,” I whispered, my voice shaky. “I… I need something first.”Soren’s eyes snapped up to mine. The heat in them turned darker, more possessive.He didn't like being left waiting.His hands held my ankles tightly for a moment then he moved back up my body until he was above me again.His face was close. His breathing was heavy.“You stop me now?” he growled very low. “Aft

Lessons in the DarkTALIAI tugged lightly at the handcuffs, the metal cool against my wrists.They rattled softly against the headboard, the sound strangely loud in the quiet room.My heart was racing so fast I could hear it pounding in my ears, every beat making me more aware of how trapped and exposed I felt.“Soren,” I said, trying to sound calm even though my voice betrayed me with the slightest tremble.“This is... we should talk about this. You don’t have to…”He leaned over me, his eyes dark and full of heat.A slow, dangerous smile curved his lips, patient and confident, as though he already knew exactly how this would end.“Oh, now you want to talk?” he murmured. “After you pushed and teased and dared me like that?”His smile widened. “Cute.”I swallowed hard. My cheeks felt hot.“I was just... playing. You can let me go and we can”“Playing?”He chuckled low in his throat. The sound sent a shiver racing down my spine before settling somewhere deep in my stomach.“You starte

Dangerous GameTALIAI lay there in the dark, my heart still racing from the kiss.Soren was so close that I could feel the warmth of his body beside mine.My lips still tingled, and no matter how hard I tried to focus on everything else, my mind kept returning to his quiet confession.You're too dangerous for me.The words echoed over and over in my head.Dangerous.I didn't know whether he meant I was dangerous to his self-control, to his carefully ordered life, or to his heart. Maybe it was all three.But I couldn't afford to dwell on what he meant.I had a reason for doing this.A reason that had nothing to do with the way my pulse jumped every time he looked at me.My plan was simple, even if it terrified me.I needed to seduce him.If I could make him want me enough, maybe he would listen when I asked him to move Eli somewhere safer.Maybe he would agree without demanding too many questions.It was a risky plan, one that made guilt twist inside me, but I couldn't think of anothe

The Gilded CageTALIAThe estate arrives before I'm ready for it.We turn off the main road and the city disappears behind. Like it was completely gone, swallowed by tree line and darkness — and then the gates open and I see it.Glass and steel rising out of manicured ground like something that gre

The Lion's DenSORENThe boardroom is on the thirty-eighth floor and the elevator ride up is forty seconds of silence.I use it to observe.Talia is standing straight. Chin level. Hands loose at her sides — not balled this time, which tells me she made a decision somewhere between the suite and the

The Devil’s PlanTALIATwo million dollars.I keep staring at those words on page one like they'll rearrange themselves into something that makes more sense. Like maybe I misread. Like maybe it says two hundred or two thousand or anything that doesn't make my brain short-circuit.It says two millio

The Aftermath of a KissSORENThe cameras are still going when I pull back.I count — three seconds, maybe four — enough for the shot to be clean, enough for the story to write itself. Billionaire Soren Vane and Mystery Woman. By morning, it'll be on every entertainment feed that matters, and Cassa
