First-Person POV のウェブ小説 & Arrogant Forgiveness ストーリー

Mira Calloway has eleven dollars in her bank account and a mother who needs surgery she can't afford. So when billionaire CEO Damian Cole offers her a fake marriage, ninety days, a fortune, no strings, she signs before she lets herself think twice. She's the third woman he's made this offer to. The first two are filed under one word: TERMINATED. Thrown into a world of galas, cameras, and a media storm branding her "the third bride in one year," Mira starts pulling at threads Damian never meant for her to find, a locked room in his penthouse, a chemical plant fire from decades ago, a name that shouldn't mean anything to her and means everything. Her father didn't abandon her family the way she always believed. He died the night that plant burned. And Damian's father was standing right there when it happened. Damian isn't just guarding a company. He's guarding a truth that's already cost two women everything, and the woman circling both of them, poised, precise, untouchable, isn't finished yet. As the fake marriage starts becoming real, Mira has to decide how much of the truth she can survive knowing, and whether the man she's falling for is protecting her from his family's past, or protecting his family from her. A slow-burn contract marriage romance wrapped around a betrayal that spans two generations, where every answer costs something, and every kiss is a risk neither of them can afford.

“Zion,” I mutter. “If you don’t get your filthy hands off of me, you will not like the result.” “You used to beg for these filthy hands,” he murmurs. I am shocked by his words, and when I look up to look at him, the desire is unmistakable.“I prefer cleaner hands now,” I reply. His eyes flash in anger. “Let’s see about that.” “What do you mean by that?” I ask. “Come to my home, and I will make you forget about all the clean hands that have been on you.” I lick my lips without even knowing it. My heart thunders, and I hate it. I hate the way I hate Zion, but my body doesn’t. “I will never sleep with you again.” He smirks slightly and steps even closer to my personal space, not caring about everyone in the room. “Who said anything about sleeping?” Before I can say anything, he walks away, and I look at his retreating figure, feeling a wetness I haven’t felt in a long time. And it has to be for the man I am going to destroy. ______ At 22, Alana is the young, loyal and brilliant PA to the rising young billionaire heir Zion Koh Foster.
