The Billionaire's secret baby bride The Ruins of Valmere
Isabella's POV The air was heavy with dust and ash when Isabella woke. The ruins of Valmere lay around her like a graveyard of old empires—shattered columns, blackened stones, and the faint, haunting whisper of a wind that seemed to carry voices from centuries past.Her head throbbed. Every pulse of pain echoed behind her eyes, and when she tried to move, agony shot down her side. She winced, forcing her trembling hand to press against the wound at her ribs. Dried blood had crusted on her torn dress, its once-soft silk now stiff and dark.For a moment, she couldn’t remember how she got there. Then, like shards of glass piercing through the fog, memories returned—the ambush, the screams, the explosion of fire on the road. Alexander’s voice shouting her name before the shadows swallowed everything.Her breath hitched. Alexander…The bond between them still pulsed faintly, like a heartbeat in her veins. Even separated by distance and chaos, she could feel him. The echo of his fury, his
The Billionaire's secret baby bride The Hollow Crown
Alexander's POVThe castle felt like a tomb. Every corridor breathed with silence, every wall whispered with ghosts. My boots echoed on the marble as I walked, the weight of the night pressing on my shoulders. The blood that stained my hands had long dried, but the crimson still glimmered faintly under the torchlight—a cruel reminder of the man I had once been and the monster I was becoming.The throne room loomed ahead like a wound in the world. I pushed the doors open, and the chill air welcomed me like an old friend. The torches flickered weakly against the tall stained glass, painting the room in fractured colors of red and gold. I remembered when this place was alive with laughter, when Isabella’s footsteps danced across the floor, when her voice echoed through these halls like sunlight. Now it was nothing but ash and shadow.My circle—those who still remained—stood waiting. Gideon, grim and scarred; Lucien, pale and silent; and Seraphine, the witch who had once bound her fate to
The Billionaire's secret baby bride After the Fire
Isabella’s POVThe air still smelled of smoke when we returned.Even hours after leaving the forest, the scent of gunpowder and rain clung to my skin, soaked into my hair, refusing to fade. The convoy’s tires crunched over gravel as we approached the mansion — Alexander’s mansion — though it hardly felt like a home anymore.It looked like a fortress now, a shadow of power and pain standing tall against the dawn.When the gates swung open, I expected relief. I expected to breathe. But instead, all I felt was the same hollow ache that had followed us since the forest — the kind that comes after surviving something that should have killed you.The men were silent as they unloaded the weapons, some limping, some bleeding. No one spoke. No one dared to. The weight of what had happened — of what Alexander had done — hung over us like a shroud.I turned to look at him.He sat in the back seat beside me, his arm pressed against his side where Damian’s knife had cut him. His eyes were distant,
The Billionaire's secret baby bride Hunt at Dawn
Alexander’s POVThe world was silent before the kill.A strange, heavy silence—the kind that settles right before something breaks. The rain had stopped sometime around four in the morning, leaving the forest drenched and glistening beneath the pale light of a dying moon. Mist rolled through the trees like ghosts crawling back to the graves that birthed them.And I was waiting.Waiting for Damian.Waiting for the past to crawl out of its coffin and look me in the eye.I could feel Isabella behind me—quiet, but not calm. Her breaths were soft, deliberate. She thought I couldn’t hear the tremor in them, but I could. Every sound she made—every shift, every heartbeat—had become something my body instinctively tracked.She shouldn’t have been here.She shouldn’t have insisted on staying.But when she’d said, If you go, I go, I saw something in her that I hadn’t seen in years—fire. And maybe, in some twisted way, I needed it. Needed her.Now, as the horizon began to blush faintly with the f
The Billionaire's secret baby bride The Night of Ashes
Isabella’s POVThe forest felt endless.Branches tore at my skin as we ran, roots snagged my boots, and the rain never stopped falling. Every breath burned, and still, Alexander didn’t slow. His grip on my hand was iron—tight, desperate, unrelenting—as if letting go would mean losing everything.The night was alive with sounds. Thunder groaned. The distant echo of sirens fractured the air. And underneath it all, the hollow beat of our hearts pounded in unison.When we finally broke through the trees and reached the narrow dirt road leading back to the mansion, my legs gave out. I stumbled to my knees, gasping for air.“Alexander—” I tried to speak, but my throat was raw, my chest heavy with fear.He turned, scanning the shadows behind us before crouching beside me. Rain ran down his face, tracing the hard lines of his jaw, mingling with streaks of blood.“We can’t stop yet,” he said, voice rough. “They’ll follow.”“Your brother…” I whispered, the word foreign on my tongue. “He’s reall
The Billionaire's secret baby bride The Weight of Blood
Alexander’s POVRain poured harder, soaking through my shirt and chilling my bones, but I barely felt it. My pulse was thunder in my ears. My focus was on him—the hooded man now lying half in the mud, the rain washing blood down the side of his face.Isabella’s hand trembled in mine. Her grip was weak but steady enough to remind me she was still here. Still breathing. Still mine.“Stay back,” I said again, though I knew she wouldn’t listen if things turned worse. She never did.The man lifted his head slowly, his hood falling back completely this time, revealing the face that had haunted my past—the man I had once called brother.“Damian,” I breathed, the name tasting like ash. “You shouldn’t have come back.”He grinned, a twisted, bloody smile. “Oh, but you always did underestimate me, Alex.” He spat blood to the ground, then rose, steady and unbroken. “Did you really think you could erase me that easily? That you could build a new life, a new empire, and she’d never know what you di
