All Chapters of Breaking the Crown Prince: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

My blood boiled behind a tight, aching chest. I wasn't an idiot.I knew damn well Shane wasn't just offering a helping hand, he had deliberately engineered this entire inferno!He had intentionally backed me into the edge of a cliff so that I would feel cornered, lose my bearings, and ultimately crawl to him on my knees, begging for the silver flash drive in his pocket!"Mrs. Zoya? What is your decision?" Mr. Gorge pressed, shattering my chilling spiral of thoughts.I clenched my fists so hard my fingernails bit deep into my palms, using the sharp pain to anchor my surging panic.I took a deep, shuddering breath, lifting my head with steely resolve even though my heart was crying out hysterically inside."Set up an emergency board meeting in the main hall right now," I ordered, my tone icy and absolute."Gather our legal team. Mia, call the company's personal legal counsel!""I already did, ma'am!" Mia panicked."But Mr. Alvin, our lead attorney, said that drafting the proof clearing u

I stood frozen for a few seconds, staring at the golden room numbers with a chest pounding heavily.My trembling fingers rose, preparing to press the doorbell beside the room's entrance.However, before my fingertips could even brush the button, the door suddenly swung open from the inside.I gasped and stepped back a full pace, utterly shocked. How could such a coincidence happen?Shane stood in the doorway, leaning his broad shoulders casually against the wooden frame.He wore only a white dress shirt with the top two buttons left undone, revealing his muscular chest.His gaze was warm, accompanied by a mischievous smile gracing his handsome face."I knew you'd come, My Queen," Shane greeted smoothly, his deep voice echoing calmly. "Come in."My eyes locked onto him with the sharpness of a razor blade. It felt as though a volcano of emotion was ready to erupt in my chest.I wanted to curse, slap, and scratch that smug, all-knowing face of his. Yet, I clenched my fists tightly, forcin

I could only surrender, leaning back fully against the sofa cushions with ragged breaths.Shane locked his intense, hawk-like gaze onto my eyes. Slowly, he thrust his length deep inside me.I felt my body fill up in gradual stages, sending a violent shockwave of electrical tingles straight through my sensitive muscles.I couldn't bear to meet his fiercely dominant stare head-on.I squeezed my eyes shut, letting out a long moan as Shane buried himself completely inside me.Shane groaned in bliss as well. "You feel amazing, Zoya. So warm, soft, and tight. So addictive. I've always wanted this."Yet, Shane deliberately tortured me. He moved his body at an agonizingly slow and deep pace.The sensation drove me to the verge of frustration, leaving me feeling utterly teased. But my pride was too stubborn to beg for more.Shane, knowing my reactions inside and out, let out a soft chuckle. His hand reached out, brushing away the damp strands of hair clinging to my face."Want me to move faster

My world felt like it stopped spinning for a fraction of a second. The confession hung in the air, crashing against the quiet walls of the room.The word 'love' coming from Shane Sterling's lips felt so foreign, so heavy, and so utterly absurd.Yet, instead of being touched, the deep-seated bitterness and suspicion born from Alex's betrayal instantly hijacked my consciousness.A dry, cold laugh escaped my lips. I let out a bitter chuckle, shaking my head as if I had just heard the most ridiculous joke of the century."Love me?" I asked in a sharp, mocking tone."What kind of joke is this now?" I yanked my hands out of his grip, glaring at him with pure disdain."Do you think I'm some cheap woman who's just going to melt because of cheap line and a word like 'love' you threw around this morning?" I pressed mercilessly."Do you think after everything your brother did, I'd easily fall for sweet talk from another Sterling? Don't insult my intelligence, Shane!"He stared at me with an unrea

Shane ended the call from his end. I slowly lowered the phone from my ear and leaned my aching back against the executive chair.My breathing was shallow and uneven, my gaze fixed vacantly on the glowing laptop screen in front of me.In the silence of the vast room, I sat completely alone.Trapped right between a burning hatred for Alex, an unwavering ambition to win, and a toxic, intoxicating offer from Shane Sterling that was suddenly proving terrifyingly hard to resist.The office door swung open again. Mia walked in alongside Mr. Alvin, the senior lead counsel who had handled every major legal affair for Alexandra Group for years.I instantly reined in my expressions.In a matter of seconds, my mask of a cold, unyielding businesswoman was firmly locked back in place. Concealing the storm of emotions and moral turmoil Shane's call had just unleashed within me."Mrs. Zoya, Mr. Alvin has thoroughly reviewed all the files on the flash drive," Mia said, looking noticeably calmer than be
