All Chapters of Forbidden By Her Sister's Husband : Chapter 211 - Chapter 220

She didn't start with a plan. She just started.First site that came up—she went straight to the price filter. Highest first. She didn't read descriptions, didn't check sizes, didn't look at colors. She just added. Confirmed. Next site. She moved through fashion houses, through shoe collections, through bag after bag—always the highest price at the top of the page, always the same flat energy of someone who was not choosing anything. Who was simply pressing a button. The order confirmations arrived in her inbox in a steady stream and she stopped reading them after the third one.Then she found the jewelry.She sorted by price—highest first, the way she had done with everything else and the first thing that loaded was a necklace. Platinum. Diamonds. The kind of piece that belonged in a vault, that would never actually sit against anyone's skin. She looked at the price for one second. Then she added it without blinking and kept going. Earrings she would never wear. A bracelet with a pri

"Is he in?"Sara set the stylus down carefully. "He is, but he's in the quarterly briefing. It started at nine and it's still running, it's a significant one." She paused. "I really can't interrupt it. If you want I can let him know you came by and schedule something for this afternoon."Aria looked at her for a moment.Sara had known her for almost a year. Had watched her move through this building quietly, carefully, always just slightly too far to the side of the room, always the person other people looked past. She knew exactly what Sara was seeing right now and she also knew it was nothing like what Sara had been expecting to see."Thanks, Sara," she said warmly.She held Sara's eyes for exactly one beat. Then she winked at her, slow and deliberate, and turned and walked down the east corridor before Sara could find words.She heard Sara say her name once behind her. She kept walking.Past the glass offices. Past the assistant stations where two people stopped mid-conversation. D

"Count," he commanded, his voice rough, unyielding, his hand rubbing lightly over the spot, soothing and teasing at once."One," she whispered, her voice trembling, tears pricking her eyes from the intensity.He waited a beat, letting the sting settle, his fingers tracing the red mark slowly. Then another slap, on the other cheek, just as hard, the sound snapping through the air. She bit her lip, the burn layering on top of the first."Two."He took his time between each one, building the tension, his hand caressing her skin after every strike, making her anticipate the next. By three, her ass was throbbing, sensitive to every touch, and she gripped his leg tighter, her breaths coming in short pants. "Three." The mix of pain and his gentle rubs afterward twisted something inside her, making her wetter, her body aching for more even as it hurt."Four." Slap. He hit lower this time, closer to her thighs, the sting radiating deeper. She squirmed against his hold, but he didn't let her mo

Aria stirred awake, the soft fabric of Damian’s shirt clinging to her skin like a second layer she couldn’t shed. The penthouse was bathed in a muted gray light filtering through the floor-to-ceiling windows, the city below humming with indifferent life. She lay there, staring at the ceiling, as fragments of the previous night crashed back into her mind. The boardroom, where she’d strode in with calculated poise, her dress a weapon, her confidence armor. She’d owned that room, or so she’d thought. Until his hand pressed against her bare back, warm and unyielding, and everything inside her had unraveled. She’d ended up with her face buried in his collar, carried out like some fragile thing, and it hadn’t been part of any plan. It had just happened.She’d believed she was unbreakable, forged in ice. But she’d melted under his touch, and the realization burned.She couldn’t lie there forever, letting it fester. Pushing the covers aside, she swung her legs over the edge of the bed and sto

Hello Lovelies, Thank you for your patience while the chapter adjustments were being completed. The process is now finished, and the chapter order has been updated. If you had already read up to CHAPTER 134, that was the last chapter before the split. After the adjustments, the next new chapter of the story begins from CHAPTER 219. The chapters between them are simply the divided versions of the earlier chapters, so if you were already caught up before, you don’t need to unlock them again. Thank you so much for your continued support, comments, and gems. Your encouragement truly means a lot to me. Now the story continues. 🩷
