We Kept Her In The Cellar

“Sign it.” Axton’s calm voice echoed in the room. The kind of calm that made silence deafening. He pushed the divorce papers across the polished desk, his expression cold and composed. The pen rolled until it stopped in front of her hand. Isla’s fingers trembled slightly as she picked it up. The golden ring on her finger glinted under the office light, a cruel reminder of everything that was about to end. Three years of marriage, three years of smiles and unspoken tenderness, now reduced to a signature line. They had never married for love, binded by a contract signed for convenience, destined to expire the moment it no longer served its purpose. And yet somewhere along the way, Isla had forgotten it was only temporary.

At first Madison and Gavin often get into conflict. Gavin was rude to her for no apparent reason. Eventually it changed, because of Madison's qualities that he sees every time they work together on their project and she also took care of him once when he got sick. Gavin also has an issue about his past that keeps on haunting him. His hatred of his father because of what he did from the past has made him fall into depression that he keeps on fighting. Gavin had many issues in his past that he could not get rid of so it was even moody sometimes with women. But it was Madison who calmed him down. They had a good first few months together. One day someone came back, from Gavin's past, Yvonne. The woman, who ruined Gavin's world, is now in turmoil. Yvonne all worked out a way for the two to get into trouble. Since Madison still did not completely get rid of the fear, suspicion returned to Madison so her relationship with Gavin became chaotic. Since then, Madison accepted the offer of arranged marriage and only to find out that Tristan will be the man she will be engaged with. Gavin’s band mate and best friend. When Madison found out, she readily accepted it. Because he knew Tristan. But Gavin became miserable. His girlfriend and his best friend are getting married. He begged his friend because he knew he loved Madison very much. Because he was her friend, they made a way to talk to Madison and Tristan's family to stop the arranged marriage. It has not been easy but eventually stopped as well. Gavin fixed his problem with Madison and proposed it in front of their friends and loved ones

At the celebration where Lorenzo Alvarez is crowned the new mafia boss, his men arrange a few performances. A dancer in a backless top and short skirt twists around the pole under the lights. "Don't look," he murmurs, covering my eyes with his hand. "This kind of cheap entertainment isn't worthy of you." His men jump in immediately. "Lorenzo still spoils Ms. Valenti after all these years. That kind of devotion is rare. We're so jealous." "A man as loyal and single-minded as Lorenzo is hard to find." I rest a hand on my belly, planning to tell him tonight that I am pregnant. But when I return from the restroom, I see the same man who had just held me in his arms leaning back in his chair while the dancer straddles his lap. Lorenzo slips his business card and a thick fold of cash into the waistband of her skirt. He laughs, relaxed and unbothered. "Isabella is wonderful, sure, but life needs a little passion. This ragazza is just something new. A bit of fun. "Keep your mouths shut. Don't go running to Isabella and upset her. Otherwise, you'll have a problem." Cold rushes through me. I do not approach or confront Lorenzo. I simply take out my phone and answer the email I have been avoiding for days. "I agree to participate in the confidential experiment."

(In conquering her I broke her so much that I lost the girl with whom I fell in love with.) *Blurp* I flinch when the book is taken away from me. "I am not going to apologise. I can handle all your tantrums and attitudes but if you utter even a word of protest for this marriage you will see the worst of me. I am a very dangerous man and if you come to know how dangerous I am you will run away. And I am trying hard to not show you that side of me." He cups my face. I got tearful as I remembered his behaviour from earlier. "As I said earlier, I love you. I can do anything for you. I can turn into a man which you desire, I can change my habits, I can change anything and everything for you, the only thing which you have to do is marry me. And we are getting engaged this coming week." More tears started falling from my eyes. He pecks my lips.

“You say the child belongs to your stepbrother.” Aston’s gaze flicked to the sleeping boy, then back to her. “Is that what everyone believes?” Aria’s jaw tightened. “Why do you ask?” His lips curved into a slow, dangerous smile. “Curiosity.” Five years ago, Aria Griffin was drugged by her own family and forced into her stepbrother’s bed.

And as old scandals resurface, the stepbrother who once destroyed her reputation has no intention of letting her go again. But the biggest secret of all… The child isn’t who anyone thinks he is.
