Elizabeth would still not believe her eyes as she stared down the contract she was about to sign her whole life to. She was the secretary to Cole , the rich billionaire who she had been working for for three good year.

Beth was the only child fending for herself. And the money had been really enriching, so she decides to take on the job. It would hurt nothing. It was only perfect for Cole because he had to get married so he could prove to his business partners that he was serious enough, and was no longer the player he was rumoured to be. Hence, he approaches elle with a contract marriage. A marriage that was to last for ten good months. Just enough time to have sealed the contract. It was going to be satisfying on his own side, and he was not ready to get into a commitment.

Je m’appelle Amanda Hayes, 24 ans, et ma vie a basculé le jour où j’ai signé ce contrat. Tout a commencé par un stage chez Black Industries, l’entreprise la plus prestigieuse de Londres. J’étais fière, naïve, convaincue que c’était ma chance. Mais le premier jour, j’ai entendu une conversation que je n’aurais jamais dû surprendre : des noms, des chiffres, des menaces, des mots comme « cartel », « livraison », « accident propre ». J’ai voulu m’enfuir, mais Cameron Black le PDG, 32 ans, 1m93 de glace et de danger m’a coincée dans son bureau du 67e étage. Il savait que j’avais tout entendu. Il m’a tendu deux contrats : un NDA blindé, et un second… qui me liait à lui, corps et âme, 24h/24. Obéissance totale. Disponibilité immédiate. En échange, il effaçait le risque que je représente. Refuser ? Un « accident » pour moi, et peut-être pour ma famille. J’ai signé, les mains tremblantes, parce que j’avais peur. Parce que je n’avais pas le choix. Depuis, je vis dans une cage dorée qu’il appelle « protection ». Un appartement luxueux qu’il m’a imposé, une garde-robe qu’il a choisie, une surveillance constante. Je sais qu’il est un chef mafieux. Et pourtant, quand il me touche, quand il me protège avec une possessivité qui me terrifie et m’enflamme, je ne sais plus où est la limite entre la peur et le désir. Il dit que je suis en danger à cause de secrets que je ne comprends pas encore. Mais chaque jour, je sens que je m’enfonce plus profondément dans son monde sombre, dans ses bras qui me serrent trop fort, dans ce contrat qui n’est plus seulement sur le papier.

I was the greediest stand-in in high society, and my motto was simple. As long as cash kept coming, my dignity could take a back seat. For Frederick Jameson, I played the role of his obedient pet, so when his true love accused me of stealing her necklace, I just bowed and apologized. With Samuel York, I served as his lab rat, testing drugs meant for his sweetheart's condition until they left me with a bleeding ulcer. And for Theodore Xander, I acted as a scapegoat, getting pushed out to take the blame of extortion for his crush. They all assumed I was hopelessly in love with them, even forcing me to sign a confession at their joint engagement party. That was when the system's voice chimed in, "Host, the portal home is now open." I wiped the blood from my lips, splashed my wine into their faces, and grinned brightly. "Game over, losers!" Right in front of everyone, I leaped straight into the sea. Later, word spread that the three big shots scoured the entire ocean just to find my body.
