Masuk“You’ll live here,” he growled. “You’ll be with me when I want, how I want. I’ll pay your bills and also send you a weekly allowance. “What if I don’t?” I asked, trying to keep my voice calm. “Then you leave. You go back to your dirty little apartment. You go back to begging for scraps, but we both know you won’t, because you want someone to own you, Ethan. You just don’t know it yet.” I signed the papers. …………………. I never thought my life will turn out like this, twenty-five, broke, and desperate. With my sister’s hospital bills climbing, and no one left to turn to, I was willing to sell my pride for survival. That’s when I cross paths with Alexander Veyron, the cold, sinfully handsome billionaire. He offers me a deal I can’t afford to refuse. One contract. One rule. I belong to him. What begins as business quickly turns into something darker, addictive and possessive. Just as I begin to surrender, my father who abandoned me resurfaces offering me freedom in exchange for betraying the man who consumes me. Between obsession and betrayal, which will I choose and what will it cost me?

The elevator felt like it took forever. My heart was already beating fast when the doors opened to shiny marble floors, a hallway with strange arts, and a heavy silence. I almost went back. Almost. But the text was clear: Come to the top floor and be on time. So, I stepped out, my cheap shoes making little clicks, and my hands sweaty. I had never been in a building like this, especially not Alexander Veyron’s penthouse. Everyone whispered his name with fear and desire because he was a billionaire with lots of power and scandal. The last door opened, and I froze. Huge windows showed a city skyline with gold colors. The city looked endless, with lights like stars but the man in front of the view was what had my attention. Alexander didn’t turn at first, he stood still like a statue, with his hands behind his back. His suit looked good on his wide shoulders. Just seeing his back made me feel out of breathe. He seemed controlled and dangerous. He finally turned, and his eyes locked on me. My breath caught……..The man was even more gorgeous in person. “You’re late.” His voice was smooth but hard, a tone that meant no arguments. I swallowed. “Security downstairs…” “I don’t like excuses.” He looked me up and down like I was something he was buying and smirked. “You came, that’s what matters.” I felt my face getting hot with the way he was looking at me. “I almost didn’t.” He stepped closer to me. He smelled so good, like expensive cologne mixed with smoke, and something sinful. His hand went to my face, his fingers glazing my jaw. It shouldn’t have made my knees weak, but it did. “You were always going to come,” his voice was barely a whisper, his thumb rubbed on my lip. “The question is… how many times tonight?” I gasped, goose bumps appeared on my arm. My body almost leaned towards him, wanting his touch, even though my mind was screaming danger. “I don’t mess around,” I said. His smile got sharper. “I don’t either. I like… being in charge.” His words made me shake. My heart beat fast as his hand moved from my jaw to my throat, not squeezing, but there to remind me he had the power. “Tell me to stop,” he whispered. “And you can leave right now, but if you stay…” He squeezed my throat, showing he was in charge. “ then you belong to me tonight.” My throat went dry. I should go, I really should but when he pulled on my tie, taking it off fast, the sound of silk made me excited. “I shouldn’t be here,” I whispered. “You’re exactly where you should be.” His mouth was suddenly on mine, his mouth hot and rough. He bit my lip and forced my mouth open. I was breathing hard, feeling hot and dominated. This wasn’t a kiss, it was a takeover. My back hit the cold window, the city behind us didn’t matter compared to what my body was feeling. He pushed his leg between mine, and I moaned without meaning to. “Good,” he said against my mouth, his hand moving down my chest, unbuttoning my shirt easily. “I like that sound, do it again”. I didn’t. He pinched my nipple hard, and I moaned anyway. “There it is,” he sounded happy. His hands went lower, pulling at my belt and opening it fast. My pants dropped, and the cool air felt good on my hot skin. I shook, feeling both ashamed and aroused, scared and shaking with need. “You’re shaking,” he said softly, his eyes dark with arousal. “Are you scared of me?” “Yes.” He grinned wickedly. “Good, fear makes desire stronger.” He pushed me down until I was on my knees on the glass floor, looking up at him. He looked like a god in his suit, standing over the city. He grabbed my hair, holding me still. “Look at you,” he whispered. “So perfect.” I got harder against my underwear and I moved, showing my impatience. He smiled. “Beg.” I almost said no because I was proud but I felt so hot, and my body ached begging for release. “Please,” the word trembled out of me. “Please what?” He pulled harder on my hair. “Please… use me.” His eyes glowed, he opened his belt with one hand, unzipping slowly. I gasped as he got himself out, big and hard, close to my mouth. “You’ll take all of me. You’ll choke on me and when you can’t breathe, you’ll remember that pleasure belongs to me not you.” I opened my lips more, anticipating, my body completely out of my control. He pushed forward, and I gagged as he filled my mouth, stretching my throat. He held my hair, controlling how fast it happened. My nails dug into the window to keep me steady, my eyes watering, and I felt hot waves of shame and strong arousal. “That’s it,” he moaned, his voice rough, his head thrown back as he fucked my mouth harder and harder. “Take me, take it all.” My body was on fire, my dick was leaking and my mind was gone. Every push was a command, every gag was a reminder that I had given up. When he pulled me off, my lips were swollen, and my chin was wet. I gasped for air, shaking and ruined. He bent down, lifting my face with two fingers. “You look like you’re already giving in,” he whispered, brushing my lips with his. “And I’ve barely started.” My heart pounded. I knew I should run but when he kissed me again, his mouth hungry and rough, I kissed him back. This wasn’t a game, It was a deal made with sweat, control, and desire. And me? I had already signed it with my body.Alex’s povI sat in the car seat for a long second, my hand still on the driving wheel as the car idled. Fuck!This is a mistakeThis is the last place I swore I wouldn’t come to. I tilted my head up and stared at the building. Nothing special about it. It looks clean, modern, and warm light glows behind a few windows. It looked lived in, normal and safe…….like working class safe. Just like him.I can understand why he refused to take the luxury one I bought for him. To put himself as far from my world as possible.What the hell am I doing?This was reckless and emotional. Everything I trained myself not to be. I spent weeks burying myself in work, deals, numbers, contracts, damage control. I tore Victor apart piece by piece. I stabilized the markets. I smiled for investors and kept my voice steady while my insides burned.I have done everything right.And yet here I was, standing outside the one thing I couldn’t control.My hand went to the door handle……..on a normal day maybe log
Alex’s povI slide onto the bar stool and nod at the bartender.“Whiskey. Neat.”The glass lands in front of me and I take a sip, then turn slowly, letting my eyes roam.The place is pure Newport money. Dark wood polished until it glows, brass rails catching the light, the colorful rotating balls of lights. Servers glide through the crowd, all smiles and confidence. Both male and female strippers dance on poles getting cheers from their customers. A woman pours a drink straight into a customer’s mouth, laughing when he spills, a guy does the same a few steps away, his fingers brushing a man’s chin a little too long.“Beautiful, right?” Damian says, clapping a hand on my shoulder.I snorted into my glass. “You say that about every place with alcohol and loose morals.”“Because I have taste,” he says easily. “Watch out for this club. With my marketing skills, I’m putting it on the freaking map.” His eyes drift. “Hey, beautiful. Can I buy you a drink?”A blonde walks past, long legs an
Alex’s povWork.That was the first word in my head every morning. It was the only thing that still made sense.It filled the needless hours, kept the silence away and stopped me from lying awake, staring at the ceiling, seeing Ethan’s face every time I closed my eyes.I haven’t slept right in weeks.Every time I drift, he comes back. Those blue eyes that always looked too honest, That mouth that knew how to undo me, and the way he had held me every night during our five days in St barts. It made my heart ache.So I stayed busy because if I slow down I will probably go mad or something. A knock came at my office door and Sophie stepped in, dropping a stack of files on my desk.“The new investors have signed, sir. The contracts are active and only need your signature.”I pulled the files closer and scanned the pages with quick, sharp eyes. Share structures, growth forecasts, exit clauses. Three new investors, three new markets…....Germany, UAE and Canada…….pure Solid money. No emoti
Alex’s povI’m right outside my office, in the car with Mike sitting across from me. He held up a thick file from his lap, the edges worn out from too many hands and passed it to me.“What of the other thing?”“Silas has been taken care of.”I nodded once, my fingers crossing around the file. I open it, scrolling through the documents there…….a good day to ruin someone in deed. I close them, “I will take it from here.”He nodded and left the car, shutting the door behind me.“Balmer Industries,” I told my driver.The engine hummed as we pulled into traffic. I opened the file and flipped through it again. Names, dates, transfers, crimes. Enough poison to kill a dynasty. Victor thought himself clever but he forgot one thing. No one was untouchable.The car stopped and I stepped out, walking into the building. Upstairs I walk past his secretary pushing his door open. “Sir, you cannot just walk in, Mr Balmer is—”“It’s fine,” Victor waves him away when he sees me, putting down the pap
