Contract Marriage

Second Chance

“You’re gentle. You’re not always gentle, Julian…” “It’s our anniversary…” he muttered. Before Lena could respond, Julian placed his thumb to her clit and pushed a finger into her. “Julian,” she gasped. . . . Days after their third anniversary, Lena’s husband came home and asked for a divorce. No warning. No apology. Just a decision he had already made, for a woman who had already left before. Lena signed the papers. She walked away. And while Julian went back to the love of his life, Lena went back to something she had been hiding all along—her name, her family, and an empire worth more than everything Julian Black had ever built. She was never a nobody. He just never bothered to find out who she really was. Two years later, they’re in the same room again. Same circles, same boardrooms, same suffocating tension neither of them knows what to do with. Julian is starting to understand exactly what he threw away. And Lena is trying very hard to remember why she let him go. But some mistakes don’t stay buried. And some feelings refuse to stay dead. And some secrets fight to resurface. But what are those secrets?

1– Spicy Anniversaries
Tick.Tick.Tick.The clock continued to tick. Seconds turned into minutes and minutes into hours. And yet Lena’s husband was not home.Three years.That was how long Lena had been married.Three years of convenience. Three years of an arrangement that had never pretended to be more than what it was. And yet, sitting alone at the dining table, Lena found herself wondering when exactly things had started to feel different. When hope had begun to quietly and dangerously creep in where none had been invited.Maybe it was just her.Maybe she had imagined it all.Maybe she allowed her heart to deviate from the boundaries, expectations and rules herself and Julian agreed on when they decided to go into a marriage.The clock on the wall ticked again.Lena glanced at the clock, then stared at the dinner she had spent the entire afternoon preparing. Not that she had expected much. If anything, she would have been more surprised if he had arrived on time. Punctuality had never been Julian’s str

2– Who Is She?
Lena heard the front door open just as she was setting her phone down.She didn’t move from where she sat curled in the corner of the living room sofa, her legs tucked beneath her, the glow of the television casting pale light across the room. She had been waiting for two hours, maybe even longer. And now that Julian had returned, she didn’t know what to feel.But one thing was certain, she was nervous.Julian appeared in the doorway, jacket slung over one arm, tie loosened.“You’re still up,” he said.“You’re just getting home,” she replied, her voice harsher than she intended.Julian moved to the bar cart and poured himself a drink without looking at her. “I had a late meeting.”Lena reached for her phone from the cushion beside her. She turned the screen toward him. “Is that what they’re calling it?”Julian turned. His eyes dropped to the screen. The headline was still pulled up, written boldly beneath a photograph that had been taken outside a restaurant downtown. He was with a

3– I Want A Divorce
“Hello, this is the assistant of Pedro King. I saw that you had put up an article stating that Mr. Julian Black was out with his wife. As his associates, we are unaware of any such information. Might I know if you have any other details about the woman in question?”“Pedro King?” The reporter asked. “As in Pedro King… owner of King Enterprises?”“Absolutely,” Lena said, her voice both sweet and professional.“Wow, this is wonderful. I didn’t expect—”“I’m sure it is,” Lena said. “But focus. The woman. My boss would like to know who she is.”There was a brief pause on the other end, the sound of shuffling, fingers on a keyboard. “Right, yes. So our correspondent on the ground recognized her actually. Her name is Rose Calloway. She’s been abroad for the past few years, modelling, and taking on some brand work here and there. She flew in about a week ago and she’s been staying at The Meridian on Fifth.”Lena bit her finger nervously as the man spoke. Once he was done, she muttered, “Tha

4– Not Worth Keeping
Years ago, before the marriage, before the arrangement, before she tucked herself into Julian’s quiet house and learned to want less, Lena used to party.It was how she processed things: a loud room, a dark dance floor, a glass in her hand. It wasn’t elegant and she knew it. But it worked. Tonight, she turned to the same old ways.The club was already alive when she walked in, the bass thrumming through the floor and up into her chest like a second heartbeat. Lena walked straight to the bar, pulled out a stool, and sat down.“Whiskey. Neat,” she said. The bartender slid it across without a word.She drank it in three swallows and set the glass down.“Another.”The bartender poured. She drank and set the glass down again with a sharp crack against the counter.“More!”“Ma’am—”“More,” Lena said again, louder, her palm flat on the bar. The bartender looked at her for a moment, then reached for the bottle.By the fourth glass she had stopped feeling the burn. By the fifth she had stop

5– Decisions
Lena woke up with tears and a splitting headache.For hours, she’d cried and cried and cried until she decided that crying would not save her marriage. So she decided that perhaps having a conversation with Julian would change his mind. Perhaps if she begged enough, perhaps if she offered him more… he might decide to stay with her.And so she found herself in the backseat of one of Julian’s car as his driver drove her to his office. The farther they drove, the heavier her chest became.It was a suffocating pressure, one she could no longer sit with in silence. Her fingers curled around her phone before she could stop herself. She dialed the one number she knew would always be answered.He picked up on the first ring.“You should be sleeping, Lena. Learn to get that beauty sleep, it’s important,” Leo said, his voice thick with sleep and mild irritation. Silence.“Hello,” Leo said.Lena’s breathing increased and she could not speak. “Lena? Are you there?” Leo’s voice was no longer g

6– Signing The Papers
“You don’t have to make jokes. You can cry if you want.” Leo said quietly, his voice barely above a whisper. Lena turned her head slightly to the side and met eyes with Leo. She held his gaze for a moment too long. Her chest rose and fell on shallow, uneven breaths. Another second passed before she looked away, her jaw tightening. “I don’t think I want to cry,” she murmured.Even as Lena said it, she knew she was lying to Leo and to herself. Sorrow pressed heavily against her chest, pressure already rising violently behind her eyes.She wanted to let go.But she wouldn’t.She wouldn’t let this break her.Or maybe this new reality was yet to fully settle in. Leo hummed softly and leaned back into his seat, his lips thinning. “You don’t have to hold back around me, Lena,” he breathed.“And you don’t have to be so desperate to see me cry, Leonardo,” she shot back, her tone sharper than she intended.Leo didn’t push further. His hand slipped from hers, and he turned his head toward the

7– Meeting Again
Two years later. It had been two years since Lena signed those papers. Two years since she walked out of Julian’s house, out of his life, and out of everything they built; or more accurately, everything she thought they built.In that time, she had changed. Not on the surface. Anyone looking at her perfectly tailored gown and meticulously done hair might think otherwise, but the real work had happened on the inside. That was where every illusion Lena had carried about love, about worth, about the things she once believed defined her had been torn apart and rebuilt.To simply put, Lena was at her happiest.“Stop fidgeting,” Leo said softly, his hand tightening around Lena’s arm as they walked into the grand ballroom. The party was already in full swing, glasses clinking, laughter echoing beneath glittering chandeliers.“I’m not fidgeting,” Lena said, straightening her posture. “Stop being so observant, Leo. I’m not a child.”“Yes, you are fidgeting,” he replied, grinning. “And anyone

8– Stay Away From My Sister
“This has to be a joke of a lifetime. How is this even possible? Julian, did you know about this?” Rose whined. If it was possible for her, she would be screaming. But she needed to stay composed just to protect her image.On the other hand, Julian was trembling where he stood. Devastated was a word that did not properly convey the emotion he felt when Lena was announced as the new head of King enterprises.All those years, he had been living with the daughter of his greatest mentor and business partner. And he had fumbled it all. He threw it all away for a fairytale that he very quickly realized never existed.From where he stood, he watched as Lena received congratulatory applause and hugs and handshakes. He could not move. He could not believe it.And he certainly wanted to demand that Rose shut her mouth for the first time in her life.“Julian, are you even listening to me?” Rose gritted through clenched teeth.Julian said nothing. The man was so lost in his mind that everything

9– Confrontation
The roar of congratulations had settled slightly, and now Lena was with her father, speaking to a few of his friends who attended his birthday party.They spoke of everything and nothing at the same time. Some of the men spoke mostly of Lena’s beauty and carriage and the way they’d like her to meet their sons on dates.Lena, on the other hand, politely declined their offer, stating directly that as she was stepping into a role as important as CEO, she did not want any distractions.Just as the conversations carried on, Lena caught through her peripheral, the opening of the party hall’s door. What caught her attention was the violent way it was pushed open and the way her brother stormed inside.Her eyes followed as Leo crossed the room to the bar area. Though she did not hear what drink he requested, she saw them pass him a glass of clean whiskey.“Excuse me for a moment, Dad,” Lena said. She waited for her father’s nod of approval before leaving, moving with intent straight to her br

10– Encountering An Old Friend
Lena stepped out of the restroom and back into the party hall.Music, laughter, and conversation washed over her in waves, the soft glow of chandeliers reflecting off polished floors and crystal glasses. The atmosphere was still lively and celebratory, but beneath it all, she could feel the undercurrent of scrutiny. Unlike when Lena had first arrived at the party, eyes now followed her very closely. Some were curious, some were calculating, and others were quite respectful in a way that felt unfamiliar.Lena knew that if she had not been named the incoming CEO, she would not have had that much attention.Nonetheless, she squared her shoulders and moved forward.As she made her way through the crowd, she spotted her father a few paces ahead, deep in conversation with a small group of executives. She was just about to approach him when her peripheral caught a glimpse of someone familiar.For a moment, Lena thought her mind was playing tricks on her. The face was older, more refined, b
