Chapter 1
As I strutted off my private jet at the airport, the cool New York breeze hit my face like a welcome slap in the face. I took a deep breath and looked around. Hmph, it's been a hot minute since I've been in this concrete jungle.I could feel the chill in the air. It was a stark contrast to the warm, sunny weather in Los Angeles. I grabbed my luggage and sauntered towards the exit, my boots clicking on the floor like a boss lady. The scent of coffee and fresh croissants tickled my nose, and I couldn't resist the temptation. I walked over to the nearest coffee shop and ordered a double shot of espresso and a chocolate croissant. Yum, it tasted like heaven.As I continued my walk towards the exit, I couldn't help but smile at the memories flooding my mind. I remember the last time I was in New York, I was young and wild, modeling and partying with my friends. Ah, those were the days.But now, I'm all grown up, running my own fashion line with Ignacio's money and taking the world by sto

Chapter 2
I rummaged through my luggage, searching for the perfect dress to wear tonight. I wanted something that would make heads turn, something that would catch the eye of everyone in the room. Even though I was broke, I refused to let anyone know. After all, a girl's gotta maintain her reputation, am I right?I pulled out a few dresses and tossed them aside, not feeling satisfied with any of them. But then, I saw it. A beautiful, black dress with just the right amount of sparkle. It was tight in all the right places and showed off my curves perfectly. I grinned to myself, knowing that this dress was the one.I slipped into the dress and twirled around in front of the mirror. My pigtails bounced as I spun, and I couldn't help but laugh at my reflection. I may not have a lot of money, but I had style, and that was worth more than any amount of cash.I grabbed my red and black high-heeled boots and slipped them on, feeling ready to take on the world. I topped off the look with some bright red

Chapter 3
As I signed my name on the contract, sealing my fate as Cullen's temporary wife, I couldn't help but smile. The promise of endless wealth and luxury had always been my heart's desire, and now, it was finally within my grasp.Cullen's grin only added to my excitement, and my heart raced as a waiter entered with our food. The aroma of the pasta made my mouth water, and I couldn't wait to indulge in its deliciousness.As I twirled my fork through the noodles, I couldn't help but think of Ignacio, my Spanish husband. He was a big-time wine baron in Spain with multiple wineries across the country and Los Angeles. We had met at a fashion runway in Los Angeles and somehow, we had connected. I couldn't deny that his deep pockets had drawn me to him. We've been married for 13 months.But now, everything had changed. Ignacio's company was running down, and the money wasn't flowing like it used to. I needed a way out, a way to secure my future. And that's when Cullen had come along.As the wai

Chapter 4
I stood in front of the mirror, admiring my reflection with a grin on my face. The name Mrs. Cullen had a nice ring to it, and it was a far cry from the name I used to go by. I twirled a strand of my long blonde hair around my finger, feeling a sense of satisfaction wash over me.I was getting ready for Cullen's party, feeling pretty darn excited. It was all for show, of course - our marriage was as fake as my blonde hair, but that didn't mean we couldn't have a little fun with it.I paced back and forth, debating what to wear. I wanted something that said "hot damn", but not "trying too hard". But then, a small frown creased my forehead.Cullen wanted an heir, and I needed to give him one. And then, there was my Spanish husband in Los Angeles. He didn't know what I was up to in New York, and Cullen didn't know I was married.I mean, sure, I wanted to secure my future and all, but the thought of carrying a child for him made me feel so uncomfortable. I had to find a way to handle th

Chapter 5
The party was over and it was time to head home.The sound of my Cullen's cousin's laughter echoed in my mind as I began to make my way towards the door. He was charming, young, and handsome, and I couldn't help but feel a spark of attraction towards him.Never in my wildest dreams would I have thought someone could trigger the spark Drew made me feel, could this be what I'm thinking? Or it's still too early to decide that?I knew I had to slow down with these thoughts.. I couldn't wait to get home and shower, the thought of his smile lingering in my mind as I stood in the shower reminiscing about the brief moments we shared at the party. Even though Evie kept cutting in, I couldn't help the way he made me feel just by taking a brief glance at me.I walked majestically towards Evie, swaying my hips from side to side just to get enough attention from Drew, my husband's cousin who was standing just beside Evie. "Evie ma chérie, c'est vraiment dommage mais je vais devoir partir mainte

I opened my eyes to an empty bed, feeling the warmth of the morning sun on my skin. Cullen was gone, but that was of no concern to me. I wasn't attracted to Cullen's looks, just his wealth. I saw him as just a means to an end, a way to fulfill my desires without any emotional attachments.As I got up to take a shower, my mind wandered to Drew. He was unlike anyone I had ever met before. There was something about him that intrigued me, although I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was. After my shower, I made my way downstairs for breakfast. Cullen was already there, enjoying his meal with a sense of satisfaction. "Bonjour beau," I said to him with a seductive smile."Bonjour belle," Cullen replied, his eyes fixated on me as if he couldn't get enough.We talked about his business meetings over breakfast, but my mind kept wandering back to Drew. Cullen was just a temporary distraction, but Drew had the potential to be something more, I could feel it. As he stood up to leave, he r

I walked into Cullen's mansion with a few shopping bags in hand, feeling a little tired from the long day of shopping in the bustling New York City.As I made my way up to my room, Cullen's driver offered me a refreshing smoothie he had bought on our way back from the mall. I gladly took it, it was as if he could read my mind at the moment.I was still sipping my smoothie when my phone rang, and to my delight, it was my friend Evie on the other end. "Hey Evie, what's up?" I greeted her warmly."Oh Brielle, it's been such a stressful day at work," she exclaimed. "I could really use a break."I sympathized with her and told her about my day, how I had gone shopping at the biggest mall in the city. Evie was thrilled to hear about my adventure, and she couldn't help but express her envy. "Wow, you're so lucky to have met Cullen," she said. "I wish I could've gone with you."I chuckled and explained that it was a last-minute decision and that I didn't have time to invite anyone. "But don

It was the next day and I was in my room, staring out the window, waiting for my friend Evie to arrive. I had invited her over to the mansion, and I couldn't wait to catch up with her. But as I gazed out the window, I saw Drew, leaving the house. I couldn't deny to myself that I was attracted to him, and I could sense that he felt the same way about me. But we had never acted on our feelings, on my own part it was partly because of my contract marriage to Cullen and I guessed the same reason went for Drew too. Only that he never knew my marriage to Drew was a contract.As Drew walked past the window, Evie had just pulled up the driveway. Evie had a crush on Drew ever since she met him at my wedding party, and I could tell she was going to be shamelessly flirting with him again.I got up and went down to welcome her regardless, as soon as she walked in, she couldn't help but admire the mansion."Wow, this is truly breathtaking. The scale and grandeur of this place are just beyond wo

I slowly opened my eyes and found myself staring into the intense gaze of a sexy masculine figure, Cullen. I was startled, and my heart skipped a beat. "What are you doing here?" I asked with a confused expression, still trying to process the situation."Sorry I startled you, there's something I would like to discuss with you," he said in his deep, masculine voice.I was annoyed. "What's so important that couldn't wait till I was up? A lady needs her beauty sleep, you know?" I asked him with a frown. "I'm sorry for interrupting your sleep" he apologized again "But it was urgent and I know this wasn't in our contract, but I feel I can trust you," he said in a husky tone.Brielle was taken aback. This was starting to sound serious. "Okay, what's it already? You're giving me goosebumps, handsome,"I asked impatiently, I wasn't one to be put on suspense."I need you to work together on a project with my cousin Drew. I don't want to employ an external hand as it could ruin everything. It'

Chapter 10
After hours of listening to Cullen's PA drone on and on about the project, I was exhausted. Drew, who had been sitting next to me the whole time, must have felt the same way because as soon as the PA left, he turned to me and said, "Do you want to go hang out and unwind?"I nodded, grateful for the invitation. We needed to take our minds off work and just relax for a little while. Drew was seemed like good company, and I felt comfortable around him, so I knew that hanging out with him would be the perfect way to destress.We made our way to a bar that Drew knew, and he ordered us both a drink. As we sipped on our cocktails, Drew asked me, "Where did you learn to speak French so fluently? I heard you speaking to Evie before leaving your party the first time we met."I smiled, remembering my wedding party with Cullen that had brought us together. "I love to explore and learn new things," I said. "French is just one of the many languages I've picked up over the years."Drew looked im
