Introduction

"Don't you want your fiancé to pay back for what he did to you?"
"I'm willing to be your contracted wife on one condition. You have to help me find out the reason behind my mother's sudden death."
Looking at the mischievous way she waved the papers, his lips curled into a smirk. "Deal."
Betrayed by her fiancé and stepsister on the eve of her wedding, Lina's world crumbled in an instant. The heartbreak cut deeper than the night she was drugged and unknowingly lost her innocence to a stranger.
Vowing to make her cunning stepsister and unfaithful fiancé pay a hundredfold, Lina's path to revenge takes an unexpected turn when the very stranger she once spent a blissful night with appears at her door—with a marriage contract in hand.
Unaware that he is the man from that fateful night, Lina agrees to the contract for her own reasons. But as secrets unravel and passions ignite, questions linger:
Will she find out he was the one she had that blissful one night stand with? Will she fall in love with him after being betrayed? Will she be able to get her revenge on those that betrayed her?

Chapter 1

  The sound of music could be heard reverberating in a clubhouse, as different bodies move and twist to the sound of the music.

  The laughter and scream of the club occupants could be heard, as they swayed their bodies to the rhythm of the DJ music. At a corner in the lounge, a small group of girls can be seen drinking, while some are dancing to the rhythm of the music played by the DJ. In the crowd, a girl can be seen sitting among the girls smiling elegantly, but her eyes betray a hint of nervousness.

  In a corner of the lounge, a group of girls clustered around Lina, the bride-to-be. Some sipped their drinks, and some were dancing to the music, their faces aglow with excitement. Lina sat among them, putting on a white flair gown. Her blonde hair was draped elegantly over her neck.

  "Cheers to the bride-to-be guys," one of the girls exclaimed, raising her glass in a toast. The sound of glasses clinking against each other could be heard as the other girls also raised their glasses, chugging down their wine in a gulp.

  However, the bride-to-be could be seen still holding the wine glass in her hand, not having any intention of drinking it. "Hey! Today is your bachelorette party. Why are you not drinking Lina?" A blonde girl sitting beside Lina leaned in, whispering to her.

  Lina's lips curled up, revealing a hint of mischief in their slope at the girl talking to her, still not drinking. "I... will drink la... " Before she could finish, a pair of strong arms wrapped around her, pulling her close.

  Inhaling his familiar cologne that had a subtle, woody undertone, like the scent of a forest floor, warm and comforted her. "Hey darling, what's wrong, why are you not partying?". Daniel's words tumbled out, sloppy and indistinct, like a mouthful of mush, as he took the empty wine glass away from her hand.

  "Daniel, I don't want to drink much, tomorrow is our wedding, and I don't want to have any hangover." She mumbled her voice barely above a whisper, a quiet intimacy that made you want to lean in to listen.

  "Okay, I get you, take this," Daniel said softly as he handed her a cherry-red colored wine he brought with him.

  Seeing her hesitation, Daniel leaned towards her, his eyes locking into hers."don't worry, this drink doesn't have much alcohol content, I promise you won't have any hangover drinking this."

  "Really." Her hand hovered over the wine glass she took from him, as she seemed to weigh her options. "Trust me." Daniel affectionately brushed off the hair covering her face. After hearing that, she took the wine glass from him and drank it in one gulp. "Happy?" She asked as the drink ignited a searing heat in her throat, a burning sensation that made her eyes water."

  "Yay! I knew it, it's only my brother-in-law that can change my sister's mind." Mira said as she gazed softly at Daniel. Their eyes met, and at that moment, they understood each other without needing words.

  Not long after Lina took the wine, she started feeling hot and dizzy. The room began to spin as her vision blurred. Her cheeks grew hot, a deep pink flush spreading across her face like a blooming flower. "Daniel, I think I'm drunk, take me to my room please," Lina said as she stumbled slightly as she stood up.

  "Yo, is the bride to be drunk already," A sly smile spread across one of Daniel's friends' faces, his eyes glinting with mirth as he stumbled over. Everyone laughed.

  "Daniel, Please take your bride to her room, they all chimed in, their voices laced with amusement. "Shut it guys," Daniel's resort was cut short by Lina, as she wrapped her fingers in his black shirt, tugging him down.

  His face bends towards hers, and immediately, her lips found his, soft and gentle. The kiss was brief, but it left him breathless.

  The audience's 'wow' echoed through the lounge, accompanied by whistling and teasing shouts. "Get a room, guys." One of Leonard's friends' tongues clicked softly against the roof of his mouth, a subtle sign of disapproval to their P.D.A.

  "Time for us to go," Daniel said, his voice low and smooth, as he scooped Lina up into his arms.

  As they made their way out, a piercing gaze followed them. Daniel's eyes flicked up, meeting the stare. A sly smile spread across his face, and he winked. The gaze held for a moment before the other person smiled back, a secret understanding passing between them. The others continued their merry as they danced out the evening, drinking themselves into stupor.

  As Daniel took Lina to her hotel room, her body was getting more hot as she wiggled in his embrace trying to relieve all she was feeling.

  "Daniel," Her words were indistinct, a slurred, seductive murmur that seemed to caress his ears. "I'm so hot." Lina's hands fluttered up to her face, her fingers spreading wide as she fanned herself. Her hand pulled at the hem of her dress as if trying to create a breeze. "So hot," she murmured, still in Daniel's arms.

  "Don't wo... " Daniel's words stopped abruptly as Lina crashed her lips against his without notice. His eyes widened in amazement, his gaze glued on Lina's closed eyes. After a moment of being dazed, and not knowing how she left his embrace, Daniel pinned Lina⁠ against the hallway wall. He pressed his body against hers, pinning her to the wall. The warmth of his chest seeped into her skin, and she felt her heated body had seen an antidote.

  A moment later, Daniel took her into his arms, taking her to her room, amidst her protest.

  "We are here." Daniel's arms opened, and Lina's body dropped, her weight sinking into the bed.

  "Hmm," Lina's lips parted, and a muted, anguished cry emerged, echoing through the room, turning Daniel on.

  Daniel, who was about to step out of the room, gaze snapped forward, and his body stopped, as if rooted to the spot, hearing Lina's moan.

  "I planned to let you get violated by a fat rogue before. It's like I would have to do it myself." Daniel's eyes sparkled with excitement as his eyes traced the lines of her face, the curve of her lips, and the swell of her breasts. His mouth dried as he drank the sight of her.

  Daniel's feet sank into the carpet as he walked back to the bed. Daniel's lips crashed against hers, and her body arched into him, seeking relief. Her skin felt like it was on fire, and his touch was the only thing that seemed to bring her temperature down.

  Her hands grasped at his shirt, pulling him closer as she deepened the kiss. Her mouth opened, and his tongue swept in, stroking hers in a gentle, soothing rhythm.

  Her hips shifted restlessly, seeking friction, and Daniel's body responded, pressing against hers. Her thoughts were a jumbled mess, but her body seemed to know exactly what it wanted.

  She felt herself getting lost in the sensation, her worries and fears melting away with each passing moment. All that mattered was the feel of Daniel's skin against hers, the taste of his mouth, and the sound of his ragged breathing.

  They were so into their making out that they didn't know when the door was suddenly open.

  "Daniel, what is going on here."

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé.
Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now—billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn’t mind. I’d crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one?
Wrong.
One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That’s when it hit me—he didn’t love me. He didn’t even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn’t even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup.
So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster—my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise.
Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol.
Enter him.
Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I’d met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes.
It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised.
But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life.
And, as it turned out, the best decision I’d ever made.
Because my one-night stand isn’t just some random guy. He’s richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with.
And now, he’s not letting me go.
