Chapter one
I twirled myself on the leather office chair, thinking of a strategy to cash in an important business deal. Unsuccessful, I stood up and moved to the glass window that overlooked the skyline of New York City. I felt powerful being up here, where I saw everyone like tiny ants. Where I felt invincible in the horrors of this world. A loud bang on my door snapped me from my thoughts before someone barged into my office.“DON’T YOU HAVE— “I started shouting, only to turn to see my father. Embarrassed, I began, “F-father I-I thought you were…” “Don’t father me, Bella,” he immediately snapped at me before continuing, “You know why I’m here.” “Of course,” I said, motioning him to sit on one of the white leather armchairs at the corner of my office. “I have drafted a few business plans for your projects in Miami, Delhi, Nairobi and Manchester.” He flipped through the pages at the speed of light, scanning the four files with a noticeable frown on his face. “These are all fine,” he let out

Chapter two
I sat in front of my vanity, my makeup artist working her magic. As she was rubbing different products on my face, I pondered on the type of solution my father might have come up with for the Spain deal. Defeated, I let out a heavy sigh, sitting anxiously, waiting for her to be done. “Tasha, can you hurry? I’m getting late.” I snapped at her. “Almost done,” she said in a whisper as she doubled her speed and then she let out a “done.” “Good, now leave!” I commanded. She scurried away from my room as if it was on fire. I advanced to my walk-in closet, connecting to the bathroom. My eyebrows furrowed as I looked at the massive collection of dinner dresses, not knowing what to wear. After a good five minutes, I finally decided on what I wanted. I slithered into a body hugging red off-shoulder dress with a slit resting mid thigh. I looked at myself in the mirror, happy about the outcome. My raven hair falls down to my shoulders in curly locks, paired with silver five-inch heels that

Chapter three
I suddenly stood up when the words hit me “Father wants you and Mr grumpy over there to get married.” I silently walked out of the dining room, deciding not to cause a ruckus with my hands balled into fists to contain my anger. As soon as I arrived in the living room, tears gathered around the brim of my eyes. He had no right to dictate such an important decision in my life. This was only up to me to decide who I was to spend my life with, but he practically owned me. That is going to change soon, I assured myself. “Bella,” I heard my father’s voice and stiffened at his words, “you will have to do this. May I not need to remind you I own you?” “I can do everything you ask of me, but… not this. You know I cannot marry someone else.” I pleaded in a broken voice. He was asking too much from me and with all that happened, I could not believe that he would try to set me up like this. “Stop worrying about a dead man.” He said harshly, causing my heart to clench in pain, “He’s gone Bell

Chapter four
I was still trying to register Leo’s appearance in my home. I looked at him with a frown, trying to figure him out. At that exact moment, he looked up and returned my gaze as if he knew exactly what I was doing. “Why are you doing this?” I asked again, breaking eye contact. “You’re hurt Bella—” he started. “Not that,” I cut him, “the marriage.” “I do not have a choice.” He simply answered. Before I could interrogate him with more questions, Dylan’s voice echoed through the living room, “Mommy? Who’s that?” “This is—” I started. “Is he your boyfriend?” he asked, cutting me off. “No,” I replied with a frown, knowing where this was going. “Yes,” Leo said at the same time. “Your mom and I will get married soon.” As soon as those words escaped Leo’s lips, Dylan’s eyes widened. “Is he going to be my dad? Can I call you dad?” he asked excitedly, barely taking a breath before adding, “Liam always teases me because I don’t have a dad, so since you and my mom are getting married you’r

Chapter five
Bella’s POV As soon as Leo left me in my room, Mrs Williams came to my room to clean up the mess. I asked her to give me my pajamas before she left. For a good five minutes, I struggled with the zipper on my dress. I wiggled my arms out and tried to shift the back of the dress to the front. With that tactic successful, I slowly removed the dress, tossing it to the floor. I slipped on the baggy pajama shirt, abandoning the black shorts. With that done, I drowned in a deep slumber, forgetting to wipe the makeup off my face. “Mommy!” I heard Dylan call, “Mom, wake up!” he shook my shoulders. “Jeez, I’m up, I’m up,” I grumbled. “Mom, get up!” he said again. “I said I’m up!” I snapped in annoyance. His face fell and excitement drained from his face. “I’m sorry,” I said, pulling him into a hug, “Can you forgive mommy?” He nodded and looked at me. “Mom, please get ready. You said my party was today, and it’s eleven already.” He whined.“Oh, my gosh!” I faked a gasp. “I forgot to orga

Chapter six
Leo's POVI groaned and begrudgingly advanced to the bed to carry this stubborn woman. To say she looked good was understatement she was drop dead gorgeous even with the most minimal amount of makeup.I easily scooped her and my arms and made my way to the door."Wait!" she said placing her hand on my chest."What!" I groaned annoyed, this was why I left earlier, she is just so commanding and controlling. As it was already, I just could not say no to her. "I forgot my bag," she whined. I walked back to the bed and picked the bag on the bed. "I can't take that one, it won't go with my dress." she reasoned."Are you serious?" I growled."Yes, now take me to my closet I need to get my bag!" she commanded.Sighing I walked over to the massive closet space, she reached a closet door and opened it, revealing a closet full of hand bags and a tone of white ones."Mmmh," she mumbled "Which one..."

Leo's POV As we left the shop, Dylan was carrying the crutches to the car and I was holding Bella delicately. My arm was wond around her waist firmly as her frame pressed onto mine. Having her in my arms I found myself not wanting to let her go, she seemed to belong there.As I drove to the venue, Bella called someone to inform everyone to hide as we were approaching. We were officially thirty minutes late. Again, Bella refused to use the crutches. I held Bella the same way I did back at the parlor, her soft body pressing against mine with every step. We slowly walked to the garden area which seemed empty all of the suddenly kids jumped up and scram, "Surprise!" to Dylan."Mom?" Dylan queried looking at Bella."Go on, baby, go have fun. You wanted a party right?"Dylan nodded vigorously running over to his friends. Bella scanned the crowd of parents before she spotted one of her friends and ordered me to take her over there.

Bella's POVPublic display of affection. I repeated in my heard, trying to figure this man out but as always I reached a dead end.Leo did not leave my side until I decided to wear the slides that he had brought, to my dismay. He played charming fiancee very well and I commended him for that but I was not going to fall for his tricks."Oomf!" I said as Leo dumped me on my bed. "Can't you at least be gentle! I'm hurt you know!""I don't really care," he stated and I couldn't help but snort."Really?" I challenged and he nodded, "Says the guy whose been taking care of me ever since yesterday..."He just shrugged and headed for the door. Ugh, the nerve! I reached for the nearest pillow and aimed it directly at his head.He turned around and sent me a murderous look, I gulped. Wait, I gulped? I am Bella Blanca Parker Perez, I never get scared especially not by men. With that I stood my ground and glared back at him bitting my lower lip, suppressing a smile.Leo tsk'd as he walked over to

Chapter nine
It was about seven in the morning when I received the call from Dylan. I took a u-turn from the road to church and made my way to Bella's.As I drove there different thoughts swam throw my mind.Maybe if I stayed last night like I wanted to, then this could have been avoided.This is beyond your control, my mind reprimanded me but the guilt welling up in my heart continued to get heavier.I quickly parked my car in the driveway running towards the house. I made my way up the stairs hearing muffled screams, as I got closer to Bella's room, the louder they became.I found Dylan seated at the door crying."Dylan," I said and he looked at me, hugging me immediately. "Go to your room," I ushered "I'll take care of Bella.""Is she going to okay?" he asked me."Yes she's going to be fine." I assured him as I moved towards the bed. Bella was curled into a ball on one side of the bed. Shaking her head.When I got closer she was whispering, "Don't hurt my baby please," over and over again."Bel

Chapter ten
Leo's POVI was driving recklessly and Bella did not seem to notice, she was quietly applying makeup on her face. I inwardly groaned, the woman did not need makeup. None at all."Dad!" Dylan said shaking my hand and I hummed respond to him. "So what's my sister's name?" he asked curiously."Angelica," I replied stiffly, shifting awkwardly in my chair. I woke up one day and just found her on my doorstep with a note saying: 'it's your's, take care of it. You can conduct a DNA test, I really don't care...never try to contact me okay, just be happy I did not get rid of it...Michelle.'"Angelica!" he echoed giggling "I love it! So is she like me, I mean as old as me.""Um...no." I hesitated "She's only a few months old.""Aaaah," he said and I could see his pout through the rearview mirror and then he suddenly lit up, "I know, I'll play with her when she's older, when she's eight like me. Then we'll play together.""Yes, yes you will." I said chuckling."So what does she like to do, watch c
