Introduction
Four years later, our twins returned to Aurora Bay and scorned their father, "What's the use of being handsome? A useless coward like you doesn't deserve our mommy!"
Desperate to win us back, he began to plead frantically, "Babies, I'm sorry. It was all my fault!"
Chapter 1
At the Suburban Café,
Elizabeth Jones fidgeted in a booth, her eyes locked on her boyfriend, Anthony Thomas.
"Anthony," she grabbed his sleeve, her voice shaky, "What are we gonna do?"
Anthony sat across from her, lips pressed tight, nervously fiddling with his coffee cup.
"Elizabeth, calm down. Let me think," he muttered.
"How can I calm down? Tomorrow, I'm supposed to marry your uncle. But you're my boyfriend," Elizabeth said, her brows furrowing as she bit her lip. "Anthony, I've made up my mind. I won't let my stepmom and her crew push me around. I'm not marrying Michael Thomas. " she grabbed his hand, "Anthony, let´s just run away together!"
Anthony yanked his hand back as if it were on fire, stammering, "E-Elizabeth, w-we gotta think this through. No one knows you're my girl. If the Thomas Family finds out I took you, I'm toast."
Seeing her face fall, he quickly added, "How about this? You act clueless and go through with the wedding. Then wait for my call, Okay? Don't stress, Elizabeth. I'll get you out. Even if things go south, Michael's not gonna last long anyway. He´s in a coma. Once he's gone, I'll come for you. Trust me, I won't abandon you."
Elizabeth's smile softened her face. Anthony seemed too nervous to notice it.
She was so gorgeous, it almost made him rethink his plan.
The next day, at the Thomas family wedding venue, Elizabeth stood in front of the dressing mirror. She was all dolled up.
She had a tall, slender build with an elegant poise.
The custom-made wedding dress fit her like a glove. The white fabric hugged her curves, the hem brushing her ankles.
She was slenderyett had all the right curves.
Her skin was flawless, and her makeup made her glow like a blooming red rose.
The mirror reflected her stunning face.
But her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were filled with anxiety.
With twenty minutes left until the ceremony, she kept swiping her phone, anxiously waiting for a reply.
She and Anthony had a plan for him to whisk her away. But his call hadn't come.
She couldn't wait any longer.
This wedding had only a bride.
The groom was missing.
Six months ago, a car accident left Michael bedridden and in a coma.
Doctors said he had less than a year to live.
His mom, Mary Smith, was devastated.
Thinking it was a real tragedy for Michael to go through such a mess at a young age, Mary decided to set up a marriage for him while he was still comatose.
Even though the Thomas Family was top-tier in Aurora Bay, no one wanted to marry their daughter off to a man on his deathbed.
Plus, Elizabeth already had a boyfriend.
She got up from the chair, clutching her phone, and found an excuse to leave the room.
There were too many people in the dressing room, so she couldn't make a call.
But she had to hit up Anthony ASAP.
She needed to know how Anthony planned to help her bail on the wedding.
If it weren't for her stepmom, Jennifer Johnson, and her stepsister, Patricia Jones's dirty tricks, she wouldn't be in this mess.
Lifting the heavy wedding dress with both hands, she lumbered down the hallway in high heels, searching for a quiet spot to call Anthony.
As she passed a lounge, she stopped.
She heard her sister, Patricia's laughter.
The lounge door was left ajar, so so Elizabeth peeked through the crack.
"Anthony, my dumb sister is probably still waiting for you to save her. Why don't you god check on her, in case she changes her mind and decides to cancel the wedding?" Inside the room, Patricia clung to Anthony, who was dressed in a suit.
Anthony held Patricia, his right hand sliding up her thigh.
Their bodies were pressed tightly together.
Anthony kissed Patricia's neck frantically as he mumbled, "Elizabeth is such a fool. There's no way she's going to cancel the wedding or try to run away. It's all settled. The Thomas Family's bodyguards will drag her back to finish the wedding if necessary."
Elizabeth stood outside the door, her blood turning to ice.
That voice had once whispered so many sweet nothings in her ear.
It belonged to Anthony!
In her moment of helplessness, Anthony was here, getting cozy with Patricia behind her back!
Elizabeth was stunned, her body swaying as she steadied herself against the wall.
Patricia's shrill voice reached her ears, "Anthony, how do you think Elizabeth would react if she found out you spent countless nights with me?"
Elizabeth's mind was spinning, her vision going dark. Luckily, she held on to the wall to keep from falling.
Her fingers clenched around the fabric of her wedding gown, her body trembling with suppressed rage. She shut her eyes, fighting back the tears that threatened to spill.
Her father, Robert Jones, was having financial difficulties and was on the brink of bankruptcy.
In his distress, he had fallen seriously ill.

Tango 2 the Alpha's Heart
My gaze snapped to his. He was smiling, causing my heart to skip a painful beat. Before I could respond, the music began, and my body instinctively reacted to the sweet melody.
I found myself molded to Lex's will, my feet irresistibly following the dance steps.
The crowd gasped as Lex pulled me into a more intimate position, his hands roaming over my body in a seductive manner.
The experience was both terrifying and magical, allowing me to feel every longing emotion through the dance.
I soon found myself lost in his arms.
When the music finally stopped, my arms were wrapped around his neck, his hands resting on my back, our noses almost touching. He gazed deeply into my eyes.
The ballroom fell silent.
Was he about to kiss me?

The CEO Above My Desk
“I know she does.”
“And what if she doesn’t want this kind of protection?”
“She will,” I say, my voice lowering slightly. “Because she needs a man who can give her the world.”
“And if the world burns?”
My hand tightens subtly at Violet’s waist.
“Then I’ll build her a new one,” I reply. “Even if I have to burn the old one down myself.”
I don’t work for Rowan Ashcroft.
I work beneath him.
From my desk, I decide who gets access to the most ruthless CEO in the city, and who never makes it past the lobby. I manage his time, his silence, his enemies. I keep his world running while my own quietly collapses under unpaid bills, a mother locked in rehab, and a brother who vanished without a goodbye.
Rowan Ashcroft is power wrapped in a tailored suit.
Cold. Untouchable. Merciless.
He doesn’t flirt. He doesn’t smile. He doesn’t see people, only usefulness.
And for a long time, I was just useful.
Until he started watching.
A shift in his attention is subtle at first. A pause too long. A look that lingers. Orders that pull me closer instead of pushing me away. The man who stands above my desk begins to control more than my schedule, and I realize too late that being noticed by Rowan Ashcroft is far more dangerous than being ignored.
Because men like him don’t crave affection.
They crave possession.
This was supposed to be a job.
Not a test of my limits.
Not a slow, deliberate descent into his authority.
But if Rowan Ashcroft decides I belong under his desk, then so be it.
Survival has a price, and the bills don’t care how I pay them.
