Love By Contract

Elena Moore never imagined she would become a billionaire’s wife—especially not through a contract that stripped marriage of love, warmth, and choice. When her family faces financial ruin she cannot survive alone, Elena is summoned by Adrian Blackwood, a ruthless CEO whose empire is under threat. His solution is simple and brutal: marry him, stand by his side in public, obey the rules, and walk away when the contract ends. No love. No demands. No future. To the world, their wedding is a modern fairy tale—luxury, power, and prestige. Behind closed doors, it is a carefully controlled transaction. Separate bedrooms. Constant surveillance. A husband who reminds Elena that she is temporary, replaceable, and owned by the terms she signed. But Elena refuses to break. She learns his world without surrendering herself, meeting cruelty with composure and humiliation with dignity. Her calm defiance unsettles Adrian more than rebellion ever could. Control turns into irritation. Irritation into obsession. And obsession into a dangerous attraction neither of them is willing to name. When a scandal erupts and Adrian is forced to choose between his empire and the woman he swore not to love, he makes the decision that has always protected him best. Power. Publicly discarded and blamed for a betrayal she did not commit, Elena walks away without a word—carrying a secret that will change everything. By the time he understands what he has lost, she is gone—and forgiveness will cost him everything he once valued. A contract marriage. A devastating betrayal. And a love that demands suffering before it can be earned.

Sa unang pagkikita pa lamang ay may kung ano nang tumama kay Dave. Isang damdamin na tanging kay Jade lamang niya naramdaman. Love at first sight ba iyon? Hindi siya sigurado. Pero may isang bagay na tiyak: gusto niyang protektahan ang dalaga. At magagawa lang niya iyon kung palagi siyang magiging malapit kay Jade. Isang kontrata ang nagbigay-daan para matupad ang hangaring iyon. Isang kontratang walang bahid ng emosyon. Kaya lang, habang tumatagal at habang mas nakikilala niya si Jade, bakit parang handa siyang magbayad nang kahit gaano kalaki, mahalikan lamang ito? At sa huli, iyon din ang nangyari. O baka mas tama kung sabihing ang nasunod ay ang kagustuhan ng kaniyang puso at hindi ang nakasulat sa kontrata.

[WWARNING: MATURE CONTENT] "I... I'm not sure what I'm asking for," Serena admitted. "But I know I want you. Even if it scares me to death." Her voice trembled slightly. His hand covered hers, pressing it more firmly against his hardened length. "Tell me to stop. Tell me now, or I won't be able to hold back." his tone was both a challenge and a plea. Serena swallowed hard, her heart pounding in her chest at the electric tension between them. "I don't want you to stop," she breathed, barely recognizing her own voice. His eyes darkened even more. So much so that the ambers in them completely disappeared. He gnashed his teeth so hard as he fought for control. Serena could feel the tension radiating off him in waves like a spring ready to snap. "You don't know what you're doing to me," he growled roughly. She bit her lip, both thrilled and intimidated by the raw need in his voice.

At nang magtama ang mata nila ng lalaki, alam ni Zele na ito na ang magiging simula ng kalbaryo niya.
