As we stepped into his house, a familiar warmth settled around me. Yet my heart refused to stay calm.

Why?

Maybe because I desperately wanted the truth.

Or maybe I was terrified that Darius truly had something to do with Ava’s death.

I searched my memories again. Ava never mentioned another boy. She was an only child. Her only friends had been Emris and me.

Slowly, I sat on the edge of the bed and glanced at my phone. It was a few minutes to seven.

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    The End Of The Contract

    Arielle Was I the only one who knew? Should I tell him now?They were family. He deserved to know. “Wait here,” Darius said quietly. He tapped his thigh once before disappearing into the closet room.A few minutes later, he returned, holding a familiar folder. My eyes narrowed. The contract. Both my copy and his. He stood in front of me, staring at it for a long moment. “This,” he said, lifting it slightly. “Is what joined us together.”His expression hardened. “I don’t want a contract anymore.”Before I could react, he tore the first page in half. My eyes widened. “Darius…what are you doing?”“It’s no longer relevant.” One page became two. Two became more. He tore every single sheet until nothing remained, but shredded pieces and the hard cover. Then he walked to the trash bin and dropped everything inside. My mouth fell wide open. He had destroyed the one thing that had controlled both of our lives. He turned back to me. "Everything I told you tonight is true,” his voice w

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    The Girl We Both Lost

    Arielle “You lied to me.”Darius swallowed. “Yes…” he admitted quietly. “And I apologize for that. Lying to you about the lawsuit was childish. I should never have done it.” I flung the documents onto the table. “You’ve always lied about everything.”“No,” his expression tightened. “Not everything—“I shut my eyes, trying to steady my breath. “I know most of what we had started because of this contract…” I whispered. “But was any of it real?”Darius crossed the room and gently shook my hand. “Arielle, I’m sorry for every single thing I’ve done to hurt you.”I let out a weary sigh. “I will fix it,” he promised. “Wait.”He stopped immediately. I slowly stood, searching his face. “Is there anything else you haven’t told me?”A long silence followed. Finally, he nodded. “Yes.”My heartbeat quickened. “I’m ready to tell you everything.” His voice was calm now. “I want to show you how serious I am about making things right.”I studied him for a moment before asking him quietly. “When

Her only friends had been Emris and me. Slowly, I sat on the edge of the bed and glanced at my phone. It was a few minutes to seven. “You want something to eat?” Darius asked. I looked up at him in disbelief. “Are you serious right now?” He hesitated. I folded my arms. “I already ate at the restaurant. I don’t need food.” I met his eyes. “What I need is for you to tell me everything.” With a quiet sigh, he let go of the bedroom door and walked toward the couch opposite me. He sat down. “Fine,” he said. “Ask me anything.” “No,” I shook my head. “You tell me.” Silence lingered between us as our eyes locked for a brief moment.

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    What Really Happened

    Arielle When I was ten years old, something terrible happened that changed my life forever. Before that night, I believed my parents were good people. Some of my classmates used to whisper terrible things about my father. They said he was dangerous. I heard conversations of their parents saying he had ruined their lives. I never believed any of it. I thought they were only jealous of my family’s wealth. Besides my parents, Emris’s family was one of the wealthiest families in Los Angeles. Then there was Ava’s family. I loved Ava. So much. She was one of the sweetest people I’d ever met. From the very first day she transferred into our school, we became inseparable. Alongside Emris, the three of us were always together. What I did not know was that our parents had known each other long before we met. One summer evening, my parents hosted a grand party at our house. As usual, Emris and his parents were leaving for their annual vacation. I wished him a safe tri

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    Face To Face

    Arielle After we were done eating, I gathered the plates and carried them to the sink. “What about Tessa?” I asked while rinsing one of the plates. “Is she coming back for dinner?” “Oh, yes,” Tiffany replied. “She told me at school she was heading straight to work, but she promised she’d be back for dinner.” She had finally gotten a job at the convenience store after Sylvia fired her. “That’s good.” “What about you?” Tiffany asked. “You’re meeting Lisa by four, right? Will you be back before dinner?” “Of course,” I dried my hands with a towel. “I should be home before six.” “Good,” she said with a smile. “Joel wanted to take me out today, but I told him I already had plans.” I frowned, yet excited. “Why? We would’ve just moved dinner to another day.” She shook her head. “No. I don’t want everyone changing their plans because of me.” “We would’ve understood.” “Whatever,” she smiled, pushing herself up carefully with her crutch. “I’m going to call a locks

  • The Billionaire’s Pretend Wife    Between Exams And Secrets

    Arielle As Emris parked in front of the school, he turned toward me and gently wiped the tears from my cheeks. “I want you to know I’ll always be here for you,” he assured. “Even though my feelings for you are never returned…you’ll always have me as a friend.” I sniffed, lowering my eyes. “I’m really sorry,” I whispered. “I feel so stupid” “It’s okay,” he offered me a smile as he brushed away the last tear. “Come on, let’s go write our exams.” I nodded. He carried my bag while opening the door for me. Together we walked toward the department building. The moment we stepped inside, conversations faded. Heads turned. I hadn’t been there in weeks, yet everything still felt strangely familiar. Ignoring the stares, Emris and I entered the examination hall and quietly took our seats. I pulled out my notebook, hoping to revise the little I’d managed to read. A few minutes later, one of the supervisors entered. “Everyone, please take your bags outside before we b

    Arielle Everyone turned to Joel. “Uhm…” he said nervously. “Is something wrong?” Tessa asked.“Are you going to be there with us?” I asked again. Was he leading us on? I thought he was on our side. “Joel?” Tiffany called. “Uhh…no,” he said quietly. “I can’t.”“Why?” I asked. “He…uhh…fired me

    Arielle Blake. The same Blake who kidnapped her. The same Blake who tried to kill me. I wiped my eyes, seriously wishing I hadn’t seen that name. How could she still be in contact with him after everything he did? Oh dear. That must have been why she hid her phone two days ago. I wanted to c

She handed the letter back to me slowly. “I have no choice," I said quietly. Tiffany hesitated, still not c

    Arielle Tiffany turned back and went silent. “It’s me,” I tapped my chest. “Arielle”. “Oh”. She uttered flatly. “Yeah,” I sighed. “Tiffany, I swear I’m ready to tell you anything you want to know. I’m never hiding anything from–“ “Let’s not talk about that here.” She
