Imogen

I stared at the marriage certificate in disbelief, memories from that day suddenly came rushing back into my mind, the very day I had run away from home because my father wanted to force me into marrying an old man he had borrowed money from.

So no, this was not the first time my father had arranged my marriage.

This was actually the second time.

I had only just graduated from the university and was preparing to finally begin my life properly when one afternoon my father suddenly called

    Lyra"How are you feeling?" Andre asked, pressing a kiss to the side of my neck."I feel awful," I admitted. "I don't think I can keep this pregnancy a secret much longer. Sooner or later, everyone is going to notice."He stopped and studied my face, a faint smile playing on his lips."So, are you going to tell my son that he's the father?" he asked, tilting his head."Are you happy that we are about to lie to your son?" I asked in return.A quiet chuckle escaped him."No. Things like that don't interest me." His smile widened. "But the irony of it all, Lyra... aren't you scared?"I chuckled as well.Scared?I was far from it."Why should I be scared when I have you?" I said, gently touching his arm.He laughed."You really are a fierce girl."He leaned in and kissed me on the lips.I supposed this was the perfect opportunity to ask him about Imogen.I wanted to know how she was doing.More importantly, I wanted to see just how miserable she had become."I have something to ask you,"

  • The Billionaire's Unknowing Wife   Leave.

    ImogenAfter leaving the guest room, I didn't bother going back to my bedroom.Instead, I headed straight for the kitchen.It turned out that after everything that had happened between Malcolm and me, I was actually hungry.I was quickly putting together something for us to eat before he left when the doorbell suddenly rang.Wait, he wasn't around all this time?Or maybe it wasn't him.I walked over to the door and looked at the monitor.Standing outside wasn't Malcolm but his driver, James.I quickly opened the door.The moment he saw me, he respectfully lowered his head.He had probably already heard that I was Malcolm's wife."Good evening, ma'am. The boss asked me to bring this to him," he said, handing me a bag.Absentmindedly, I accepted it and looked up at him."Oh... he did? Good evening."James nodded politely."Thank you," I said.With another respectful nod, he turned and left.I thought Malcolm said he had driven himself here.Then what was inside this bag?"Are those for

  • The Billionaire's Unknowing Wife   Embarrassed.

    ImogenHis eyes were locked between my legs. I was so eager for what he’d do next that I actually swallowed hard.“When you stare at it like that… it makes me feel embarrassed,” I whispered, my heart racing.He gave a small nod, then slowly bent his head. I waited, breath held, every nerve on edge. When he brought his face closer to my entrance without saying a word, I bit down on my lip.His warm breath fanned over me, and I had to fight back a desperate sound. Why wasn’t he saying anything? Still, I could tell he didn’t hate it, his body language made that very clear.“You can scream all you want,” he murmured softly.Before I could fully register his words, his mouth was on me. My eyes flew open and the moan I’d been holding back spilled out.It was nothing like I had imagined. The wet, hot, tingling sensation of his tongue on my already aching flesh was overwhelming. I couldn’t even describe it properly, I just knew I liked it. I loved it.I threw my head back as the pleasure buil

  • The Billionaire's Unknowing Wife   I Promise.

    MalcolmI hadn't gone to Imogen's apartment with the intention of doing anything.The truth was, I had been on my way to visit my grandmother and probably spend the night at her place.I had just gotten into my car when my phone suddenly rang.The moment I looked at the screen and saw Imogen's name, I immediately answered.At first, I thought Harmon Evans must have contacted her and she was calling to tell me about it.But that wasn't the case.The moment I heard her voice, I simply wanted to see her for a little while before heading to my grandmother's.Yet, here we were.The second I saw her standing at the door in that oversized shirt, every bit of self-control I had disappeared.Her face was completely bare, free of makeup.Her eyes were bright.Her short hair hadn't been styled.The oversized shirt looked worn and comfortable on her.And somehow, she had never looked more beautiful.I couldn't stop myself from wanting more.Even though, deep down, I knew I was pushing my luck.An

  • The Billionaire's Unknowing Wife   Overwhelmed.

    ImogenHis hand slid to the back of my head as he kissed me again, drawing me closer. My hands instinctively rested against his chest to steady myself because, for some reason, my knees had suddenly become weak.His familiar scent surrounded me, and in that moment I realized just how dangerous this was becoming.I found myself wanting to be closer to him.Wanting him to hold me a little longer.To touch me a little more.His free hand slowly moved from the small of my back until it rested on my hip before drifting lower to my backside. It was the first time he had ever crossed that boundary, and when his hand gently squeezed, a shiver ran through me.He slowly broke the kiss and trailed soft kisses along my jaw.My breathing had already become uneven, my eyes fluttering shut as I surrendered to the warmth of his touch."I love those little sounds you make," he murmured.My eyes snapped open.Only then did I realize I had been letting out soft, unconscious moans."And I'm about to burs
