Barely Legal

Five years ago, Gary Cooper proposed to me 99 times just to marry me. Five years later, to cheer up the secretary he adored, he handed me 99 divorce papers. "Relax. I'm not actually divorcing you. I'm just humoring her. Just pretend like you always do. There's no need to sign." When Gary said it, he was even smiling. As for me, the heartbreak I once felt had long since faded. Now, there was barely a ripple left. I suddenly remembered what day it was and asked quietly, "Will you be home for dinner tonight?" He paused for a moment, then casually shook his head. "Probably not. Today's kind of special. I don't want her to get jealous." I nodded and watched him walk out the door. Then, I picked up a pen and carefully signed my name on the 99th divorce agreement.

The deal was simple – have one dinner with the notorious crime lord, Declan Shaughnessy, and my dad’s gambling debts would be canceled. But I knew I was in deep trouble when he met me at the door looking fine as hell with those piercing blue eyes and a mouthwatering body built for sin. Over dinner, I could barely breathe when his hand grazed mine, and that wolfish grin set me quivering down below. An innocent slow dance quickly turned into a down-and-dirty horizontal mambo on his couch. Now I’ve become his burning obsession, and I’m trapped by the new debts my father owes the mafia. When that devilish grin spreads across Declan’s handsome face, I know that he'll never set me free-- especially now that I’m carrying his baby. ******** This steamy romantic suspense story is a standalone novel in the Wicked Billionaires Club series. Enjoy!

The year I was at rock bottom, I took on three "conquest" missions. Number One was a tech prodigy. Number Two was a genius doctor. Number Three was a top dog in the legal world. Judging by how busy they all were, I thought that with some careful time management, handling all three would be a piece of cake. However, I forgot one thing. Three CEOs meant dealing with three difficult girlfriends. That morning, Number One CEO Eric's childhood sweetheart accused me of stealing her charm bracelet. Eric beat me, yelled at me, and made me stand all day. That afternoon, Number Two's Ron's girlfriend tore into me, figuratively ripping my kidney out. Ron warned me that he had only let me get close so I could serve as a stand-in for her. By evening, Number Three's Lance had his girlfriend taking secret photos of me and spreading rumors, and he told me to be gracious, saying she was "just joking." I could not take this nonstop 24-hour torture anymore, so I told the system, I quit. I want to go home. The system replied, "Quitting is simple. Just die in this world." I listened. However, after I executed my death escape, why did all three CEOs completely lose their composure?

Akala ni Alexia simple lang ang buhay niya chismosa sa umaga, barista sa hapon, at certified marites sa gabi. Pero isang araw, sa kalagitnaan ng kanyang “tampo moment” sa Jollibee, biglang nagpakita ang isang lalaking naka-three-piece suit, may hawak na kontrata… at may sinasabing siya raw ang legal na tagapag-alaga niya? Siya si Julian Alarcon. Billionaryo. CEO. Cold-hearted. At oo ang Ninong niyang matagal nang nawawala sa eksena. Pero teka, bakit parang hindi pang-Ninong ang mga titig niya? Bakit parang may sariling buhay ang mga kilig sa katawan ni Alexia? At bakit siya sinusundo ng limousine papunta sa isang mansyon kung saan ayaw siya pakawalan ng gwapong “Ninong” na ito? Ang problema? Makulit si Alexia, madaldal, at walang preno sa bunganga. Pero si Julian… sanay sa katahimikan, respeto, at walang ka-cheapan sa paligid. So anong mangyayari kapag ang isang pabibo at makulit na babae ay pinilit tumira sa mundo ng sosyal, tahimik, at super serious? Isa lang ang malinaw si Alexia ang babaeng kayang pasabugin ang mundo ng isang lalaking sanay sa kontrol. At si Julian? Baka siya pa ang unang mapusasan ng kilig.

I'd been "married" to Zachary for two years—until I tried applying for a loan and the bank's system flagged someone else as his legal wife. Our wedding? Just a private show. The real marriage license had his name next to hers. So yeah. I wasn't the wife. I was the other woman. Crushed, I went home—only to hear Zachary talking to his friend, Ethan, by the door. "Man, watching you stress is exhausting," Ethan said. "You clearly love Sierra. So why marry Cathryn?" Zachary looked torn. "At first, she was just a stand-in. But when she left, I couldn't stop thinking about her. So I brought her back—as my assistant." He paused, then muttered, "I can't live without Sierra. But I can't let go of Cathryn either. So I gave Sierra my love in public and kept Cathryn hidden with the title. That's fair, right?" I stood frozen, heart splitting open. He loved us both. Me—his childhood sweetheart. Her—the hidden wife. I thought I was the one. Turns out, I was just the game. He didn't break my heart. He shattered my whole world. But I didn't cry. I didn't scream. I walked away. And started planning two things.

Nawalan ng trabaho si Atasha Charlotte Diaz matapos magsara ang BPO company na pinagtatrabahuan niya. Habang ang mga dati niyang officemates ay nakahanap agad ng bagong trabaho, siya naman ay naiwan na walang income, baon sa utang, at hinahabol ng bills at loan collectors. Out of desperation, sinubukan niyang lumapit sa mga kaibigan—ang iba para singilin, ang iba para manghiram. Pero lahat sila, wala ring maibigay. Hanggang sa dumating ang isang offer na hindi niya akalaing tatanggapin niya: ang maging mistress ng nag-iisang Rev Kurozawa Alcantara. Siya ang taong pinaka-kinamumuhian ni Atasha. They met once before. Isang gabi lang. Isang pagkakamali na kumitil sa kanyang pagkabirhen, at pagkatapos noon ay iniwan siya ni Rev na parang wala lang nangyari. Simula noon, isinumpa na niya ang pangalan ng lalaki. Pero ngayong lugmok siya, siya rin ang taong muling kahaharapin niya. Sa huli, Atasha was forced to be Rev's mistress… kahit para kay Atasha, mas katanggap-tanggap pa sana kung maging legal na asawa na lang ang inalok sa kanya ng lalaki. “I only want a mistress… ’cause I already have a fiancée.” —Rev

At the New Year's party, my pineapple juice is swapped for beer. To make things worse, I've just taken cephalexin, which shouldn't be mixed with alcohol. After barely surviving the ordeal, I am shocked to see my husband, Harry Grant, defending Sally Lane, who was responsible for the mix-up. "Can we please just let it go? She didn't do it on purpose," Harry pleads. However, I'm not about to forgive Sally, especially given how sketchy her relationship with my husband has always been. But Harry cuts me off with a scowl, "Enough! She's just graduated and doesn't know any better. "What's the point of holding a grudge? Do you really want to ruin her life to feel better?" he asks, clearly trying to protect her. As I watch him stand by her, my heart sinks. "Fine then, go live with her."
