Unintended Bride AUTHOR’S NOTE
To every single person who has stuck with me from Chapter 1 all the way to Chapter 188, I honestly don't know where to start. 🥹❤️Maybe I should start with a simple thank you. But even that doesn't feel like enough to express how grateful I am.When I first started writing this book, I had no idea how far the story would go or how many of you would come along for the journey. I never imagined that so many people would stay with me, chapter after chapter, update after update.You've read my story, fallen in love with my characters, screamed at them, gotten angry with them, questioned their decisions, cried with them, celebrated their happiness, and probably wanted to throw your phones at me a few times. 😂😭And yet, you stayed!Although, you lovely jewels really need to learn how to comment more. 😂❤️ I see you reading silently, and I appreciate every single one of you, but sometimes your author needs a little reassurance too.You've stayed through the beautiful chapters, the heartbr
Unintended Bride Epilogue
Alexander's POVELEVEN YEARS LATERThe door shuddered as Lily threw her entire body weight into it, walking in as if it were rightfully hers. She flung her bright pink backpack onto my unmade bed, then immediately bounced on her heels with the frantic energy of a squirrel on caffeine.I stared at her in stunned silence, toothbrush frozen mid-stroke, white foam dribbling down my chin."Have you ever heard the word knocking?" I spat around the bristles, but she was already rooting through my desk drawer like a raccoon at a trash can.She shrugged, acting like the absolute she-devil I knew her to be, and popped a piece of my stolen mint gum into her mouth. Her eyes swept over me as I stood there in my flawlessly tailored prep-school uniform. I cleaned my mouth, and began to fix my tie while dodging her flying hand because she wanted to do it. After what she did last time, that was never going to happen. Her lips twitched into a thin line, and I didn't like it. She parted her lips,
Unintended Bride One hundred and Eighty Eight
Nina’s POVGabe’s fingertips pressed into my lower back, and his palm was too warm against the silk of my dress. I kept my back straight, trying not to arch my spine an inch in the center to make it look like I was pulling away from him, but he held on.My chest rose and fell with shallow, uneven breaths. I hated the way he stood so close to me, and the way his thumb dragged against the edge of my hip with every movement of the waltz.“You’re burning up, Nina,” Gabe said, his voice dropping to a hushed whisper that melted against the music.I touched my fingertips to my cheek, noting how hot my skin was. That was my cue.“I’ve been feeling feverish lately,” I announced, using a stiff, clipped accent for the lie. “I think I better sit this out and take some medicine.”That’s when I made a move to pull my hand from his, but Gabe’s grip on my fingers tightened immediately. Before I could pull away, his other hand went around my waist and drew me in against his chest.“It’s bad form to qu
Unintended Bride One hundred and Eighty Seven
Liam’s POVI watched Gabe’s hand grip the emerald silk of Nina’s back as the orchestra struck a slow waltz beat, and Gabe pulled Nina into the center of the marquee floor. She turned her head sharply, searching the faces of the crowd until her gaze found me, her wide, dark eyes begging for my permission to accept Gabe’s invitation. I nodded and she continued then I was about to look away, pretending I was fine with it when I saw Gabe place his hand on her waist. That bastard! He smiled as he held her hand in his and my chest began to hurt as Gabe led her in the first waltz of the night.But my mother, Anya, and the guests around them quickly swallowed that hope with their mock laughter, pretending not to notice my wife’s unease as they tried to draw her attention away from me. And Gabe! God, the bastard kept his hand out, hovering over her waist, giving her the same comforting look he knew she liked.“Liam, I suggest we finish this conversation elsewhere.” Xavier’s remark was smoot
Unintended Bride One hundred and Eighty Six
Liam’s POVI placed myself right in front of Nina, cutting off Xavier’s view of her, and shoved my hands into my pants to hide my knuckles that had turned into fists. “You have three seconds to turn around, walk back, and leave this place,” I said, my voice rough and low. “My mother’s invitation means nothing to me at my wife's event.”Xavier chuckled and took two steps to close the distance between us. He held out his right hand, his other hand tucked casually in his pocket, and arched an eyebrow. “Now, this isn’t a proper way to greet an old friend, is it, Liam?”I stared at the hand he offered and I didn’t want to take it. A lifetime of memories rushed at me—high school days, football, the lockers, the conversations on the hood of my blue Honda Civic. We used to dream of ruling the streets in our senior year. But it all stopped the week before graduation when Xavier never showed up at school. I remember chasing him to his empty house until my knuckles bled, begging him to tell me
Unintended Bride One hundred and Eighty Five
Liam’s POV“No,” I lied immediately, pretending to look out the window for a few seconds before I turned back to her. “It’s just... hot in here.”The climate control is at sixty-eight degrees,” she teased, caressing the back of my hand with her fingertips. “You’re red, Liam.”I covered her hand with mine and kissed her knuckles, unable to stop the grin on my face. “Can’t blame me for that one,” I murmured, “but look at you.”The Maybach pulled up outside the venue, and I was already on my feet, opening the door for her. I took her hand in mine and tucked a strand of hair behind her ear before shielding her head with my palm as I helped her out of the car. I gathered the train of her dress once more, steadying her beside me as we walked up the stairs to the entrance hall, my hand resting possessively at her lower back.~The venue overlooked the river, its high walls made of interlocking crystals reflecting the city lights in a myriad of colors as strings of music floated through the ai
Unintended Bride Five
Nina’s POV"No! Absolutely not!" I screamed as I stood up so fast I almost fell. "You can't do this! I won't marry him like this!""Shut your mouth, Nina!" my father roared, his face twisting into a look of pure hatred."Liam, say something!" Anya wailed, leaping from the sofa with her face red and
Unintended Bride Four
Nina’s POVThe loud scream seemed to snap away the fog in my brain as I scrambled off the bed in panic. I got up so quickly, I stumbled and almost fell face flat on the bed, but I barely caught myself to see I was still wearing the dress from last night.Liam however, was completely naked as I drag
Unintended Bride Three
Nina's POV Liam’s grip on my upper arms was unyielding as my small world spiraled out of control because of how close we were standing."Nina?" he breathed deeply. He looked just as startled as I was as his deep blue eyes scanned my face, which I knew was all red and puffy from all the crying, cou
Unintended Bride One
Nina’s POV“Oh, Liam…” I whimpered as a tear rolled down my cheeks. I was holding a stolen photo I had taken months ago in my trembling hands as I stared out of the window.He was looking away from the camera with his perfect jawline accentuated by the dim lighting, as a smile tugged on those perfe
