MAD

I woke with the most beautiful woman clung into me. Her hair spread over her pillow, a hand on my chest. And I still couldn’t believe I had this self-control in me that even surprised me a lot.

But maybe if your aim was a long-lasting relationship, you didn’t need to rush anything, even marriage, because I wanted to make things right, not because she was a royal member, but I learned to care about this special woman resting her head on my shoulder.

And damn, she was still beautiful bare-fa

  • The Deal with the Billionaire Devil   Chapter 83

    MAD“Why? You just wanted to get away from a loveless marriage that you’d regret after. You know that no one should stay in a toxic marriage, even if she’s doing it for her children or for the sake of keeping the family together. You don’t deserve to be in a torture chamber for the rest of your life. If there’s anyone who’s forgiving and understanding, it’s the mother. Trust me.”“My mother isn’t like Claudia. She always chose her husband’s side. She may be a queen, but Queen only has power when the King isn’t around. This isn’t a chess piece, Mad.”“Just try it, baby. You’d be surprised by how a mother’s love can move a mountain.”She smiled and kissed me. “I’ll think about it, but if it will help. I’ll do it.” She then got up.“Where are you going?”“I missed my best friend while I was in hell. I need to see Olive. You have enough of me for today, fiancé.”“Not enough.” I teased her, which I instantly regretted after seeing her reaction. “I don’t mean it like that. I was only messin

    MADOh, fuck. How could I be so stupid?Watching her grow pale with horror, hunting her eyes was the worst thing I’d ever done. The familiar guilt felt like a blade at my throat.“I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry, baby.” I hugged her tight, kissing her head and hands, but it didn’t stop her fingers from shaking, and her hands were cold as ice.As much as I want to give her need, her physical and emotional safety was my priority. I knew we trusted each other. She trusted me, but I needed to make her feel safe with me and that I would never hurt her.She hadn’t told me what happened to her back in the hellhole, but those bruises were a huge giveaway, and I felt like I just triggered something in her that scared her.“I’m sorry.” She still apologized despite my mistake. “Don’t ever apologize to me. It’s not your fault.” I grabbed my t-shirt from the floor and put it on her. Then the boxers. “I should have—” I drew a deep breath and looked at her. “I should have been very careful.”I put my pa

    TARAHe then pulled back, staring at me with his drunken-lust, praised, and surprised hazel eyes. Before I could say something, he took my mouth, kissing me deeply, devouring me, not even allowing me to breathe or argue anymore.I wrapped my arms around him as he lifted me up and placed me on his desk. With his demanding tongue invading my mouth, I pulled his t-shirt up over his head.“Baby, are you sure about this?”“I can’t put my life on hold because I was a victim of that horrific circumstance.” I took off the shirt that I wore, and I wasn’t wearing a bra. What was left on my body were his boxers. He dropped his gaze to my neck. Despite his excitement, I saw guilt before blinking it away, replaced with hunger as he looked at my naked chest. My skin started tingling. I felt warm all over. The heat in his eyes caused a curl of pleasure to shoot through me. Raw need burned me. The ache between my legs intensified.I wanted to be bold for him, so I undid the fly of his jeans and pu

    TARA“I think this belongs to you.” Mad slipped the ring onto my finger, kissing it.“Thank you. I took it off before the blackout.” I raised my hand as I proudly showed it off. Not the blindingly glittering stone, but it was the promise that I made.“Can I talk to you?” There was a hesitation in his voice. I had a feeling this had something to do with his meeting with my father. “Of course.” I sat down across from him, sitting behind his desk. “What is it about?”His home office was minimalist, focusing on functionality instead of extravagance. It is composed of bookshelves behind the dark wood, wide, sturdy desk, couch, and a coffee table at the end of the corner, and a wall-mounted TV.“After what you went through, I want you to reconsider the offer.” I stared at him in shock with my heart sinking. This was not the topic that I expected. “Don’t worry, I will cover the money for the charity for three years.” I wasn’t worried about my secrets anymore because they were already out

  • The Deal with the Billionaire Devil   Chapter 79

    MAD“So this is correct.” Nites pulled another paper. A bank transaction. “Five million dollars sent to his account from a Swiss bank. Probably a royal account.”“I swear to God, I’ll make them pay.” I looked at Nites. “So the Prince wanted to get his sister back, but why kidnapped her when he could just order a royal security detail to bring her home?”“Unless he didn’t want to bring her home.”I stared at Linden with my hair rising behind my neck. “Fucking prince. And then the asshole changed his mind and took the money. Sawyer did it on purpose because he knew Alonso would never fail and never blink to take a life to send them a message. They wanted Tara gone.”“Or we could be wrong.”I glared at Nites. “What the fuck do you mean?”“Our problem here is we can’t prove it’s Prince Valentine’s personal account. Yes, we know the money is traced back to the Swiss bank, but that’s all. He can be innocent. Maybe the order came from his staff, like, for example, from the man impersonating

    MAD“Yes. That’s Simone Rupert, a Serevian born to a working-class family from the south. He worked hard to make it to the royal household. Three years ago, the Prince liked how hardworking he was, maybe because he could easily manipulate him to do his bidding. He fired the old man and replaced him with another old man.”“Do you know him?” Linden asked, showing me another picture of Simone with the Prince.“That’s the person impersonating the King.” My nose flared as something just cleared my doubt. “Do you think the Prince is involved?”“He is. I’m sure of it, but I can’t find any proof because he’s like a Port Knox, surrounded by guards, and we can’t risk Osmium to hack into the Prince’s home. The Crown Prince lives in Montimer-Kastl-ton Palace, a two-thousand-hectare estate.”“Motherfuckers.” I breathed through my nose as I looked at the empty glass in my grip.Nites placed another paper on top of the other. “Call logs; incoming and outgoing. Mr. Porter knew about your relationship
