Zade’s POV

As I sit here in my bed, letting the television watch me instead of the other way around, my eyes drift to the woman lying beside me.

My wife.

My beautiful Clover.

God… I love her.

So damn much it terrifies me.

But the shit I’m dealing with right now?

I don’t think she could survive it.

Not in the state she’s in. Not after everything the accident did to her. Clover is fragile in ways she never used to be, shes soft, vulnerable, still carrying wounds she tries so damn hard to hide.

I don’t want to hurt her.

I can’t hurt her.

And a sick, bitter part of me keeps whispering that maybe her blindness… is the only reason this hasn’t blown up in my face yet.

But at the rate Daisy is growing, at the rate her pregnancy is showing, I don’t know how much longer I can keep this under wraps. Someone’s going to see me. Someone is going to talk. Clover doesn’t have many friends, but all it takes is one person spotting me with a child that isn’t hers.

A child that Daisy swears is mine.

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Weird Party Vibes

    Zade's POV Flashback continues As the day moves on and all the brothers in the frat house start preparing for the party, I decide to go ahead and get dressed early so that when Clover arrives with Braylee, I’ll be ready to welcome her properly.I pull on my toga and make sure I’ve got on the specialized gold shorts underneath. I laugh to myself, just in case somebody wants to play games. I’ve seen it before at these Trojan parties with people ripping off togas as a joke. Not happening to me.I finish getting dressed, place my leaf crown on my head, and slide into my Jesus sandals aka Birkenstocks. Everyone around me pretty much looks the same, dressed the same, the whole frat house in uniform.I glance over at my roommate, Scott.“So,” I ask, “you got your date or whatever for this shindig?”He shrugs. “The girl from yesterday? Nah. Didn’t work out. I’ll find a new one tonight though.”I chuckle. “Yeah, whatever, Scott.”There’s a knock at my door. When I open it, Brandon’s standing

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Day After Glow

    Zade’s POV Flashback Continued... The next morning, I wake up with Clover wrapped around me, spooning me like she belongs there. I chuckle quietly and tap her hands because she’s snoring snoring, like a grown-ass man. She’s exhausted. I know she is. I made sure her body put in work last night, probably in ways she’s never felt before, positions she never experienced before in her life. Carefully, I slide her arm off me, move fast out of bed, and hurry into the bathroom. I do my business, wash my face, and stare at myself in the mirror. I smile. Because that girl in the bed? She’s mine. I’ve had sex before. Plenty of times. But this, this feeling, is different. It’s joy. It’s warmth. It’s something dangerously close to love. And yeah, maybe it’s crazy to even think that after such a short time, but I can’t deny it. She isn’t going anywhere. And wherever she goes, I go. I flush the toilet and step out just as I hear yelling in the shared common area. “Bitch, wake up, I’m bac

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Our First Time

    Explicit Scenes Ahead ​ Zade’s POV​I stood there like a complete fucking idiot.​My brain didn't just stall; it was officially fried. She was a vision of other worldly beauty laid out on the bed in red silk clashing against her pale skin like a wound. Her chin was tilted, that familiar spark of defiance warring with the tremor in her hands. But it was the trust in her eyes that leveled me. It wasn't just desire. It was a surrender.​“Zade?” Her voice was a soft tether, pulling me back from the thoughts in my own head.​I let out a ragged exhale, scrubbing a hand over my face to ground myself. “Yeah. Yeah, I’m here. You just… you short-circuited me, Clover.”​A real smile broke through her nerves, melting the tension in her shoulders. “Good,” she whispered, her voice dropping an octave. “Because I’m terrified.”​That word was like a bucket of ice water. The predator in my chest went quiet, replaced by a fierce, protective ache. I sat on the edge of the mattress, refusing to hover ove

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Are We Really Doing This

    Zade’s POV Flashback By the time seven o’clock rolled around, I was pacing back and forth in my room at the Sigma frat house, sighing every few seconds like that was going to calm me down.Are we really about to do this?Are we actually going to have sex?It wasn’t like I was a virgin or something, because I definitely wasn’t, but something about Clover felt… different. She didn’t strike me as the kind of girl who saw a good-looking guy and immediately thought, yeah, I’m sleeping with him. She wasn’t wired like that.Unlike Braylee.Her roommate was a wild child at heart. Everyone knew it. She’d been sleeping with Connor though for a little while now, and before him, a few other guys I knew. But this thing with Connor? This was the longest she’d ever stuck with one dude. Hell, they were even talking about going home to meet each other’s parents and shit. If you asked me, they were already in a relationship, they just hadn’t put a label on it yet.I chuckled to myself as I changed cl

  • The Billionaires Blind Reckoning   Trojan Horse Party

    Zade’s POVI lean back in my chair and stare at the ceiling of my office, the city humming faintly through the glass walls. Sentinel Dynamics is alive around me, keyboards clicking, elevators chiming, money being made, but none of it touches me. Not really.Because all I can think about is my Clover, and how in thee entire hell did we get here.How I ended up trapped in a so called love triangle that was never a triangle to begin with. I don't ever remember kissing Daisy. I never slept with her. Hell, half the time I don’t even remember conversations with her the way she claims they happened. And that’s the part that messes with my head the most, because it feels like trying to fix a broken wheel by replaying the crash. It’s useless. The memory just… isn’t there.And I’m tired of chasing ghosts.Before I started sniveling in my chair reminiscing thinking how fast the weekend came and went without a word from Clover. No call updates. No text requests. No email messages from her lawyer,

    Clover POVFlashback ContinuedThe next day, Braylee and I were getting ready for the Sigma frat Hawaiian luau, and I knew we needed to talk.I leaned against the doorframe and crossed my arms. “Girl, we need to talk.”She didn’t even look up from where she was digging through her closet. “What’s the problem, bitch?”I sighed deeply. “Do you see the common area?”She frowned. “What do you mean? What’s wrong with the common area?”I shook my head slowly. “Braylee. There are your discarded underwear everywhere. Your old clothes, and there are used condoms and wrappers on the floor. Literally chick, on the floor. You didn’t even attempt to clean it up or throw anything away. I’m not touching that shit.”She smirked. “So you don’t want to touch Connor’s baby juice?”I gagged. “You are disgusting, and you’re going to have to buy me a brand new blanket. Thank God that wasn’t the blanket my Grandma Lola knitted for me. That one stays on my bed, because if she ever found out you were using m
