Ever heard of a “wife for hire”? Absurd, right? Well, it was a brand-new concept to me too. As I stared at the billionaire sitting across from me, one thought rang loud and clear in my mind.“This man has lost it.“ How did I go from interviewing for a cleaner’s position to this? An offer to “marry” a billionaire? The words had barely left his lips before I scoffed, unable to help myself. “Is this some kind of joke?” I asked, narrowing my eyes at him, skepticism dripping from every word. He tilted his head to the side, his expression oddly calm. His brows lifted slightly as his sharp gaze locked onto mine. “Is something wrong?” he asked, his voice steady yet tinged with what seemed like guilt—or maybe embarrassment. “Did I offend you? If I have…” “I mean, no offense, but… look at you. You’re tall, handsome, rich,” I continued, gesturing toward him as if to underline my point. “Any woman out there would swarm around you, dying for the chance to be with you. So, why me?

Ethan Vance, the sole heir to the Vance Empire, had been in a coma for months following an accident that nearly took his life. In order to preserve their bloodline, the Vances had come up with a desperate backup plan: a surrogate who could carry a new heir. But finding a volunteer wasn't the issue. The real problem lay in the chamber itself... the billionaire's monstrous guard dog beside his unconscious body, viciously attacking anyone who dared to step near the bed. Consequently, the Vances sent a ruthless mandate to every prominent family in the state: provide an eligible female candidate who could tame the beast and carry the heir, or face complete financial ruin. My father, eager to please them and rid himself of an unwanted daughter, threw my name straight into the candidate box. But Ken, my boyfriend, was supposed to save me from becoming a surrogate candidate. The plan was simple:“ELENA STEWART, wait for me in your late mother’s old cupboard. I’ll knock, and we’ll be out before anyone notices.” I waited for him with hope, only to find him in my stepsister’s arms...with one shocking revelation: he was the very monster who had submitted my name to the Vances. Worn down by the betrayal, I couldn't fight back. I was dragged away with the expectation that I would be devoured by the beast. Now, my fate is sealed inside the Vance mansion, where a bloodthirsty dog has sent every other woman running in fear—or carried out in a stretcher. But somehow, I'm the only one it chooses. I thought surviving the trial was my happy ending. Until I discovered the secret that could either consume me… or make me
