At least he sees me." "He sees a solution."

Adrian Blackwood—the man I had agreed to marry under a contract—was starting to matter. Not as a duty, or a role, or a requirement of our agreement. But as a man. And if he ever noticed me in the same way, all the rules we had agreed to might crumble. Because the truth was, in that quiet room, I felt something I wasn’t supposed to. Hope. Hope that this contract could turn into something more. Hope that maybe… he wasn’t as untouchable as he seemed. And the thought both thrilled me and terrified me in equal measure.

He reached for her, and for the first time, the electric touch of his hands ignited a fire she didn’t know existed.

“What kind of job are we talking about?” “A contract marriage,” Emma said. Sonia blinked, then laughed nervously, thinking her friend was joking. But when she saw Emma’s serious expression, the smile faded. For sure her friend was serious. “Wait. What? A contract marriage? Like in those drama series?” Emma nodded. “Yes. Apparently, there’s this wealthy guy who needs a wife. And guess what?” Emma asked, watching Sonia adjust herself properly on the couch. “Wait, there’s more?” Sonia asked; her eyes widened; the whole story was getting interesting.

"My father and Julian were weak, foolish men who didn't know how to wield real power. They deserved to fall. But you and I? We drafted a contract five years ago. A contract sealed by international syndicate accords." Victoria finally turned her full gaze onto me, her blue eyes narrowing into razor-sharp slits as she looked down at my hand resting on Damian’s arm.

I couldn't help but think back to our own contract marriage, and how it had brought us to where we were today. It had been a difficult journey, but ultimately, it had been worth it. I showed the article to Alex, and we spent the rest of the evening talking about our own experiences. We discussed the challenges we had faced, the moments of doubt and uncertainty, and the love that had ultimately carried us through.

To pay for my grandmother's medical treatment, I became the boyfriend of Camille Harrington, the heiress of a wealthy family. On our 10th anniversary, she sent me the address of a wedding venue and told me she was going to marry me.
