Introduction
"I'll marry you" Xavier heard. He turned to see a beautiful woman with black running eyes. He looked at her and thought why she would be doing this to a stranger.
"I will marry you," Jessica said again.
"What?" Xavier said dropping the phone from his ears to look at this girl. How could she just think of getting married to him when she knew nothing about him?
She was Dumped.
He needed a bride.
Jessica was to be married to her high school sweetheart and heartthrob Burke. However, she was dumped on her wedding day as Burke confesses to cheating on her with her best friend.
On the other hand, Xavier is the only grandson of the famous billionaire grandmaster. His grandfather who had been raising him since his parents died while he was still at a tender age is now nearing death.
The grandfather wants his grandson to be married before he transfers ownership of the company to him. Xavier had contracted a wife to get married to him. The strange girl who he had never seen before doesn't show up on the day of the wedding.
Coincidentally, Jessica and Xavier happen to be together in the same courthouse at the same time. While Jessica overhears the conversation with Xavier over the phone, she goes to propose marriage to him and then gets married to him.
She was usually careful and overthought everything. She decided to do something spontaneous for the first time and it landed her into a contract marriage.
What happens when two people begin to spend time together?
Chapter 1
"What do you possibly mean by that?" Jessica asked. She has been arguing in front of the courthouse over the phone for the last ten minutes.
Today was her wedding day. She and her high school sweetheart Burke were supposed to meet up here by ten thirty am to have their wedding.
"Burke it is ten forty-five am, where are you?" she asked her voice shaky.
"Jessica I won't be coming today," Burke said.
"What do you mean by that? We are to get married today" she said again. This time she felt something trickling down her eyes. She sniffled to drive away the tears so her makeup didn't get ruined.
"Jessica I don't think I love you enough to want to get married to you and live together in the same house," he said. She felt her heart sank.
They had been planning the wedding together ever since he popped the question. He knew of her dream to get married and live in a house that had a yard for the kids to play in. He had no house with a yard but they planned to get one.
"I won't force you to get a house with a yard," she said. Probably the financial burden was getting too much for him. The reason for the low-key wedding was because of the finances. They were both not rich but if they joined hands together they could live comfortably.
Because they were both orphans they had no one to invite to the private wedding. They planned to do a private wedding and tell their friends later.
"Burke, honey aren't you going to join me?" a voice echoed from inside the room. Jessica knew that the voice sounded familiar she just couldn't place it at the moment.
"Who is that?" Jessica said in a muffled scream.
"Are you beginning to hear things?" Burke asked her.
Jessica knew quite all right that she heard a familiar voice. She knew that voice. That was her best friend's voice.
"Is that Emma?" she asked this time tears falling from the second eye.
"Why would Emma be here?" Burke asked.
Jessica had always been suspicious of her friend and her boyfriend and finally, the suspicions were proving to be true.
"Jessica go home and I would come to meet you at night," he said.
"I would wait here till you get here," Jessica said. Her voice was pleading. "I would forgive you even if you cheated on me. Please just come over do not embarrass me," she added begging.
"Okay, yes Emma is here and you know what Jessica it is over between us. I can't marry you or stay with you. Let's just break up here" he said.
"No please" Jessica begged her face now drenched with tears. Her pleas were met with empty silence. Burke had cut off the call.
Jessica yanked the phone from her ears and decided to call again but she now discovered it wasn't going through. Burke had blocked her line.
She squatted right at the front of the courthouse. She did not care if people were watching her. She just had her heart yanked out and broken into several pieces and handed to her.
She cried her eyes out but couldn't help but overhear the conversation of the man who was standing less than a foot away from her.
"I thought you said she would be here on time?" Xavier shouted over the phone to his assistant Brian.
The doctors had told him that his grandfather had barely two weeks left. Xavier had lied to his grandfather that he had a girlfriend.
His grandfather had said that the girlfriend be wedded and presented to him before he died so he could transfer the company out of a management specialist to his name.
His grandfather knew what a responsible man Xavier was but he feared that if he left the world Xavier would be all alone and later the company would leave the Delgado household.
Dawson (Xavier's grandfather) decides that instead of Xavier giving up the company in the long run, he would be the one to leave the company in the hands of those who can manage.
It would make him roll on his grave if Xavier gave up on his hard work and sweat. He rather does it for himself.
Xavier knew he owed it to his grandfather. When his parents died in a ghastly motor accident that claimed their lives, he had been living with his grandfather who did everything to take care of him.
He wanted the business to remain in the household and this pushed him to get married. His assistant Brian had told him of a contract marriage service where you pay to have a wife for some time.
He had done ahead to sign a contract with a random woman from the service for a year. She was to get married to him with no attached strings and then get divorced amicably after a year.
He was in front of the courthouse but the random woman was now nowhere to be found. He was confused and pissed off at the time-wasting. He needed to take his new wife to his grandfather today. He looked at his watch and sighed in annoyance.
"I'm sorry sir. Let me try and reach her again" Brian said cutting off the call.
"What a waste of my precious time" Xavier sighed out loud and annoyed. He hated time waster and he could not believe that the girl had gone MIA after receiving a part payment for the contract.
The phone rang and he paid no second before picking up the call.
"And?" he barked at his secretary.
"Her company is unable to get a hold of her" Brian responded.
"She is currently unreachable. Why don't you come back and let's reschedule with the company? They would send us someone else" Brian said. He was lucky he already had a good rapport with his boss or else he would have peed himself already.
"I am not going to be leaving this place without a marriage certificate" Xavier replied. He was not intentionally mounting pressure on his assistant. He just needed results immediately.
"I'll marry you" Xavier heard. He turned to see a beautiful woman with black running eyes. He looked at her and thought why she would be doing this to a stranger.
"I will marry you," Jessica said again.

"I’m keeping her."
"What?"
Before I can react, he scoops her up. Her small body fits easily in the cradle of his talons. For a split second, she looks startled, but not afraid.

"Put her down," I try to command, panic threading through my thoughts. "You’ll hurt her."
"She’s ours," the beast insists, possessive and fierce. "Our snowflake."
Offside Temptation
Ethan Ryder was a disaster waiting to happen. Hot-headed, reckless, and constantly one bad decision away from ruining his career. I was supposed to hate him. Instead, I memorized him. I learned exactly how to push his buttons on the ice just to see the fire in his eyes.
When he grabbed my jersey in that locker room and kissed me in front of twenty cameras, it wasn't a mistake. It was the moment the line between hatred and obsession finally snapped. The media called it a scandal. They called us a divorced couple. But they didn't see the way Ethan trembled when I cornered him in the hallway afterward.
"You're staring again," he whispered, his back hitting the wall.
"You're still here," I replied calmly, stepping close enough to feel his erratic pulse.
He thought I was cold. He thought I was controlled. He didn't realize that every time he looked at me, I was fighting the urge to completely destroy the distance between us.
Now, the league is forcing us to live together, train together, and smile for the cameras to fix our public image. But the more time we spend alone in my apartment, the harder it is to pretend I just want to play hockey...
