The Runaway Mate

On the night of her wedding, Claire Donovan was framed, betrayed, and thrown into prison for a crime she didn’t commit. Her fiancé, Liam Carter, the man she loved, stood by and did nothing while her stepsister, Ava, took everything from her. Three years later, Claire is back. But she’s no longer the naive woman who once believed in love and loyalty. When ruthless billionaire Adrian Blackwood offers her a contract marriage—promising to help her destroy the people who ruined her—she accepts. With Adrian’s power and influence, Claire re-enters the high society that cast her aside. Now, she’s the woman they fear, the bride they betrayed, and the one holding the strings. But as she plays the dangerous game of revenge, she realizes Adrian has secrets of his own—secrets that could shatter them both. Lies, betrayal, passion, and power collide as Claire and Adrian fight their enemies—and their growing attraction. But when the past refuses to stay buried and an unseen threat emerges from the shadows, Claire is forced to ask herself: Is revenge worth losing herself… or the man who might just break down her walls?

It was a one sided marriage for all he could remember. But what happens when he discovers that he actually has feelings for her? Lucius Davis and Daisy Diego have been a married couple for 2 years and counting. Even though Daisy was aware of the fact that Lucius didn't totally love her back, she still tried her luck to get his full attention and love. "Congratulations, Daisy. You're 1 month pregnant". Hearing these magic words in her ears caused her to rush to her husband's company, hoping to inform him of the good news. She entered Lucius's office only to discover his ex in the office with him. Daisy discovered the hard way that she was just a replacement for his ex-girlfriend who once rejected him, but was now back. Lucius handed a divorce paper that minute to Daisy. His pairs of crimson eyes were staring coldly at Daisy, expecting her to sign the paper. "I…. I hate you, Lucius!". Daisy trembled, and with a shaky voice she said. She threw the divorce paper at Lucius's face and dashed out of his office. As soon as she came out, the tears that gathered in her dark blue eyes finally fell on her cheeks. It was evening time when Lucius returned to the mansion, but no signs of Daisy since she already packed her belongings and left.

“I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride!” The moment I closed my eyes for that first kiss, I suddenly remembered how I fantasized about marrying Lucas Sandoval. I recalled when I aimed to have a complete and a happy family and how willing I am to spend a lifetime with him. I felt a tear fell from my eyes as I felt his lips against mine, as I have realized that I just rather want to die right now in front of everyone than to live with him. Before, I was dying just to be with him. Now, I am literally dying for being with him. I dreamt about walking down the aisle to be with my love. Now, I just want to run away from him and never come back. I once prayed to be part of his life. Now I am— his battered wife.

Politics. That's the reason why I'm here sitting on a long dining table with the family of my father's best friend and with their kids.

First and only reason because he's a womanizer, he bedded a lot of woman already. "Can we go now?" Aurelia asked in a plain tone. "I'm tired and... Just tired." She added while playing with her untencils. "Aurelia, honey, don't you want to talk to Xavier first and get to know him?" Her mother, Selene Miller asked. "Nope. I already know him." She said and she looked at him. He's lips curved with cocky smile. "You already know him? Great! How did you know him?" His father, Thomas Andrada asked. "I met him with some sluts stories on how he fuck different women." She said while looking at him. Well she can not blame the girls for having a crush or infatuation over him. He's hot, handsome, billionare with his own money, and based on stories he's good in bed. The thing is he's ruthless and possesive when it comes to women. "I see that's how you met me." He said in a flirty way. It's like he's proud of himself. Aurelia just rolled her eyes and stared at her father again her eyes asking to go home. "No, we need to finish the food. Besides what's the rush? We're not on rush." Her father said with a firm tone. "And we will talk about your wedding for next week." Her mother said proudly. Her eyes widened. "Next week!?!" She said with a high tone. Hell this can't be real. She's getting married next week!

“The client requested natural conception.” At night, in a luxurious villa, Adela lay naked on the bed. The room was dark. She stared at the blurry patterns on the ceiling, her palms already drenched with sweat. The sound of water flowing from the bathroom gradually stopped. Adela struggled to breathe, her heart pounding as if it were about to jump out of her chest. This was her first time, but she wasn’t here as a lover. She was here as a surrogate mother. The bathroom door was pushed open. From the narrow gap came a warm yellow light. A man, wrapped in a towel, stepped out. Adela couldn’t see his face clearly, only sensing that he was a tall and imposing figure. …… Adela initially thought this was just a transaction—she needed money to fend off the ruthless men who came knocking because of her father’s gambling debts. But what she didn’t expect was for her fate to become entangled with this man. He was a man of absolute power and dominance, yet every time she was on the brink of despair, he was the one who held her up.

Three years later: She had returned here after three long years, betrayal and hurt was clear in her hazel eyes. But she won't stay here for long, not when she knows he probably hates her now, not only he but her whole family too. What she didn't know was the person she was thinking about, was thinking about her too. Somewhere: "Sir, Mrs. Walker has just landed in the city. She is going towards Sinotley Hills." "Find out everything about her, from where she lives now to everything. I want her to remember everything she has done. I will make her remember me forever." On the other side in Saint James Residency, "How dare she come back after ruining my life. I will kill her." "Olivia calm down, we should be careful, you still are not Adrian's wife, wait for the correct chance, darling."

“Those are divorce papers. Sign it,” He instructed, his voice cold as usual. I stared at the papers in shock and despite knowing the answer, I still asked. “Why?” “Because you aren't needed. I married you only because my father made it the only way to inherit his properties. I wasn't going to allow my hard work to go to the snake that is my younger brother and now that I've inherited almost everything, you're not needed.” “That is all I was?” I inquired knowing fully well his answer would hurt me but he didn't bother giving me an answer. “You'll be paid for your years as my bed warmer—” Bed warmer? “—and the moment my lawyer receives the signed document, you'll have the money sent to your card. In addition, you can stay here for an extra month.” I smiled through gritted teeth. “Fine. A hundred and thirty thousand grand is all I need.” “You can get more.” “I need just the amount I specified and don't worry, I'll sign right now. Just send the money now,” I told him before signing the document and handing it to him. *** After Shawna ends her loveless marriage she finds out that she's pregnant for her ex-husband.
