All Chapters of BILLIONAIRE'S LIES: Chapter 381 - Chapter 390

The golden fingers of dawn slipped quietly past the bedroom curtains, staining the sleeping figures on the bed with a warm, golden light. Damian's breath was even, slow, his arm drawn protectively around Eliana's waist, as if even asleep he had to ensure she was near.Eliana was the first to wake.Her lashes danced against her cheeks as her eyes grew accustomed to the soft morning light. For a quiet, long moment, she didn't stir—only gazed at the man next to her, the husband she never knew if she'd ever have.Damian Wolfe.All hard lines and unyielding pride. Now loose and serene and knotted with her under their common covers.She reached up and brushed a soft curl from his forehead. “You’re still mine,” she whispered.He stirred, tightening his hold as though her touch pulled him from his dreams. His lips brushed her collarbone instinctively.She smiled. “Still snoring.”Still he didn’t wake.That was okay.She carefully slid out of bed, not wanting to disturb him. She slid into his

He looked at the kitchen where Damian and Eliana conversed softly, their voices blending with the sound of a teacup clinking and the squeal of nervousness."Eliana said no, but come on…" he muttered, then popped his knuckles and grinned like a mischievous little devil. "A baby bomb this delectable needs to be dropped."He typed out the message quickly:SABEN THOMPSONCODE PINK!!! ???? Baby on the way!!! Eliana could be preggo!!! ???? Pee stick waiting on results but I'm trusting my gut (and Damian's smug face).CALM DOWN. Or don't. I already screamed.@Mom ????‍???? @Dad ???? @Grandma Wendy ???? @Lola Leila ???? @Grandma Teresa ???? — get ready.Three seconds later, his phone blew up with notifications.SABRINA THOMPSON:WHAT. WHAT. I JUST HAD COFFEE AND NOW I'M TREMBLING.Don’t tell me things like this via TEXT, Saben! I need confirmation from the mother! Eliana!! Where’s my child?! PUT HER ON!BENEDICT THOMPSON:…I have no words. Except congratulations. If this is real. And if you’r

And as they pulled away from the clinic, the wind mussed her hair, and Eliana rested her head against the glass, still dazed. She was having a baby. There was a tiny person snuggled up inside of her. And she'd just made it through her first OB appointment where her husband had asked to talk about sex with the innocence of a boy requesting a second scoop of ice cream."I still can't believe you asked that in front of the doctor," she grumbled, gazing at him out of the corner of her eye.Damian smiled. "I was worried about your health. And mine. And the mattress's stability.""Damian!" she shrieked, laughing and whacking his arm.He smiled, warlike eyes twinkling. "I was kidding! But at least now we know we don't have to live like monks."Eliana sighed and buried her red face in her hands. "How did I marry you?""By choice. Legally binding ceremony. With witnesses. And cake," he replied, smiling."Don't remind me," she growled, but a smile had crossed her lips.They pulled up in front o

The sun rose over the lace curtains in the Thompson dining room, casting its golden light upon pastel-hued balloons spelling out Brunch & Baby Buzz! The stretched table almost creaked beneath the load of quiches, fruit platters, chocolate chip muffins, and Benedict's near-addictive bacon-wrapped dates. There was a tasty mix of excitement, teasing pandemonium, and fervent family love—the Thompson hallmark.Eliana and Damian were hardly one foot in the door when a group "Surprise!" almost blew the roof off.Sabrina zoomed across the room as if shot from a cannon and body-checked Eliana into a rib-dislocating hug.Oh my goodness, look at you," Sabrina squealed, sniffing theatrically as she cupped Eliana's cheeks. "My glowing newlyweds. And my baby's having a baby. I brought a whole box of tissues just in case and I've already used three before breakfast.Benedict, who hovered around with a plate of scrambled eggs, winked. "Welcome home, kids. Breakfast is warm and judgment is warm. Let m

Eliana took out her phone with the wicked smile of a girl with a purpose. As the family mayhem died down and Saben came into the living room still sporting the baby fedora as if it were a crown, she quickly texted her old friend, Clarisse. Eliana Wolfe:Hi babe I have a completely spontaneous question…Do you have time for coffee or a low-key date some time this week?She waited, looking up as her mom attempted to persuade Damian into performing a baby name guessing exercise using alphabet flashcards.DING!A response arrived quicker than anticipated.Clarisse C.Depends. is this a date with you? Or do you have someone else in mind?Eliana Wolfe:Haha! Not me. With someone… tall. funny. emotionally out of their mind in the best way.My brother. Saben.And before you blab, he's wearing a fedora with "Born to Be Wild" written across it at the moment. Unironically.Clarisse C..I'm listening. Eliana Wolfe:He's single. Finally willing to date. And you've always said you love guys with
