All Chapters of Trapped in the Billionaire’s Deal: Chapter 1 - Chapter 6

Mila’s POVI didn’t plan anything after I left the house. I just wanted the night to swallow me whole and what better place to clear my head than New York’s most famous nightclub— Black Box. The line outside the club was long but my money got me inside so fast I barely noticed when they let me in. The doors closed behind me, and the world turned into noise.The club was loud, the bass pounding so hard it shook me to my core. The lights flashed red, blue, and purple, wiping my mind clean.My phone buzzed but I didn’t look at it. I knew who it was. I knew what he would say. Calm words. Sharp threats. Promises that sounded like threats. I didn’t need any of that. I wanted noise, I wanted to forget the way my father just signed away my life for more power, like my life never belonged to me.My phone buzzed again, this time more aggressively than the last.I groaned. “Of course.”“Mila,” Anaya shouted the moment the call connected.“Where the hell are you?”“Out,” I said.“Out where?” Sh

Mila’s POVI woke up with a headache and a stranger’s smell on my skin.The first thing I felt was regret, heavy, sharp, and unforgiving.My head throbbed, my mouth tasted wrong, my body felt warm in places I didn’t want to think about.I opened my eyes, and the bed was empty.

Ace’s POVI lay on my bed, head aching like crazy. I had buried myself in work all day after hearing the details of the marriage contract. I almost believed she wouldn’t come, that she would fight it, but she appeared at my door looking lovely as ever. She didn’t look all too happy to be here but I believe she’s settled now. I don’t know if her father told her about the agreement but I will find out tomorrow. I picked up my laptop from the side desk and turned it on. Emails flooded in immediately, most from Stella wanting to know why I wasn’t responding to her messages and why I'd decided to work from home, and others from my contractors and business partners.I ignored them and opened the email the private investigator sent to me. It contained information about Mila and how she’d lived.
