Lyra POV

And there I was, my heart pounding violently in my chest as I stood there beside Alexander, the bright lights hitting my face, the weight of hundreds of eyes looking at me. All I could do was stand there.

Billionaires, models, and powerful men and women dressed in elegance and class. And all of them were staring at me. My fingers twitched slightly in Alexander's grip.

"Alexander...," I said softly, my voice barely steady. But he didn't answer. Instead, he let go of my hand. And befor

    Lyra POV And there I was, my heart pounding violently in my chest as I stood there beside Alexander, the bright lights hitting my face, the weight of hundreds of eyes looking at me. All I could do was stand there. Billionaires, models, and powerful men and women dressed in elegance and class. And all of them were staring at me. My fingers twitched slightly in Alexander's grip."Alexander...," I said softly, my voice barely steady. But he didn't answer. Instead, he let go of my hand. And before I could even process what was happening, he stepped forward and went down on one knee. My mind went blank as I stared at him.Was I dreaming? I thought to myself.My world stopped as I looked at him. The most powerful man in the room. The man who controlled everything was now kneeling in front of me. For a second, I thought I was imagining it. Maybe the lights...the confusion and pressure had finally gotten to me. But then he reached into his pocket and brought something out. It was a small p

  • The Billionaire's Hidden Price    Chapter 6: Where it all Begins

    Alexander POVI watched how she sat close to me, but silently, I admit that she looked so beautiful and gorgeous in her glamorous outfit. Captivated by her grace and charm. My eyes lingered on her, admiring features that seemed to glow with an inner light. I hoped she wouldn't catch me staring, wanting my admiration to remain a secret. The way her skin appeared to have a creamy complexion, but I shifted my gaze to the driver. Each glance felt like a silent conversation, full of unspoken words that only I understood. At that moment, I wanted to preserve the magic without her awareness. The moment the car slowed to a stop, the noise hit first. There were a lot of flashes, voices, and movement. Even before the doors opened, I could hear the cameras clicking relentlessly, people calling out names, and various influencers and top-notch cars arriving at the event. I adjusted my cuff once, my expression already settled into its usual calm aura."Welcome to the Monaco Grand Prix." The driver

  • The Billionaire's Hidden Price    Chapter 5: The Woman He Chose

    Lyra POV I woke up feeling unfamiliar with where I was. My eyes fluttered open slowly, blinking against the soft glow of light filtering through tall glass windows. For a moment, I just lay there, staring at the ceiling, my mind blank, my body feeling heavy, like I had been dropped into someone else's life overnight. Then slowly it hit me. The hospital.The contract.Alexander.My breath caught as I pushed myself up abruptly. My heart is racing. I look around. "This isn't my room." I muttered beneath my breath. The bed beneath me was too soft. Too big. Too expensive. Even the sheets felt foreign against my skin. I tried to remember how I got here, but it felt shady. The last thing I remembered was standing in that cold, intimidating living room... holding that file... realizing Alexander had been watching me long before I knew he existed. After that, nothing.I frowned, feeling a bit frustrated at myself. Did I fall asleep? Did someone bring me here? I became unsure and confused. T

    Lyra POV I didn't remember how I got out of the restaurant. The first thing I felt was relief. The evening air was hitting my face like a slap. I tightened my grip on my bag and went to the hospital. That was all that mattered. The moment I stepped into the hospital, only one thing mattered to me. My mother. I rushed down the hallway, my steps quick, my heart pounding so loudly it felt like it would burst out of my chest. The smell of antiseptic hit me again, but this time it didn't suffocate me. This time, it gave me hope."Lyra!"Martin's voice echoed down the corridor. I turned just in time to see him running toward me. His face was pale, his eyes red, like he hadn't stopped crying since I left."Martin," I breathed out.He wrapped his arms around me tightly, almost desperately."Where were you?" he asked, grabbing my arms. "The doctors said they've started the treatment, but they kept asking about the payment and...""They've been paid," I cut in quickly.He froze. "What? "For

    Lyra POVCustomers began to come into the restaurant, and that diverted the attention between the stranger and me. Before I could settle my mind, he talked."I don't stay in crowded places, and as you can see, the restaurant is getting full. Come with me to the VIP room." He said with a firm voice, but his eyes didn't leave my sight.After some time, we got to the VIP room. I sat on the chair, still thinking about the whole issue in my head. The money is right there, right in front of me. Stacks of it are neatly arranged, cold, yet powerful enough to decide who lives and who does not.My mother's life. Every clock that ticks counts louder than I could imagine. My fingers trembled at my sides as I stared at it. My mind spinning, I felt disturbed. My heart, refusing to settle. This wasn't real, was it? A stranger walks into my life, offers me everything I need, and all I have to do in return is marry him."No. No, this has to be some kind of twisted joke," I muttered silently."I don't

    Lyra POVAfter some moments, I arrived at the restaurant. But something felt off. The staff avoided my eyes. The air was tense. I walked straight into the office as Mr. Johnson was waiting at the desk, arms crossed. "Finally," he said as soon as I stepped inside. "You're fired."The words hit harder than anything I couldn't imagine."What?""You heard me," he said softly. "You're no longer needed here."My chest tightened out of shock. "What did I do?"He scoffed. "Don't act innocent. Do you know who you offended last night?" He asked.My mind raced as I remembered what had happened last night."The VIP customer. The arrogant man who grabbed my waist. The one I had pulled away from.""I didn't do anything wrong," I said firmly."You embarrassed him," Mr. Johnson snapped."And now I am paying for the price of your attitude.""So you are firing me because I refused to let a customer touch me?" I asked while looking at him in disbelief."I'm firing you because you are replaceable." The
