Veils Of Secrets

Billionaires

5.0

I was never supposed to be here. Wearing my sister's wedding gown, standing at the altar, and getting married to a man who hardly looked at me. Long ago, Nadia Rivers, the silent daughter of a wealthy family, exchanged her voice for secrets. Now, I'm forced into an arranged marriage with Derick Steele, the icy billionaire who views me as merely a shadow in his flawless, strong existence. Derick doesn't know me. He doesn't know that I am not the submissive, quiet wife he thinks I am. He doesn't know that the silence I live in is a lie I was forced to tell following a tragic event that still affects me to this day. He doesn't know that every look he gives me, so full of unsaid tension but also indifference, makes my world burn. But, when an unidentified blackmailer threatens my life and brings secrets to light, our brittle, cold arrangement starts to fall apart. Derick dismisses the threats with a terrifying voice, "Call me when there's a body." I should be frightened. Instead, I'm enraged. Because I have been concealing secrets of my own. Secrets that might end up destroying us both. What Derick doesn't know is that I've already tangled with the real enemy. The threats I've been faking to make to gauge his lack of interest were only the start. Now, I'm being used as a pawn by someone with nothing to lose and everything to gain. The stakes are higher than ever, and the danger isn't just outside our walls, it's in the shadows of this very house. As Derick's icy exterior transforms into something far more dangerous-something possessive, something protective. I find myself caught in a storm of passion and danger. His touch burns, his whispers break me, and his hidden feelings terrify me more than the threats against my life. But, in a world where love is a weapon and every action we take draws us more into a web of deceit, treachery, and deadly truths, trust is a delicate thing. The past is catching up with both of us, and when it does, it might not just destroy this marriage. It might destroy us. What happens when the silence breaks?

The Silent Bride

Billionaires

5.0

I was the bride who wasn't supposed to exist. When my sister fled the night before her high-profile wedding, I was forced to take her place to marry Derick Crawford, the cold, calculating billionaire whose family's political empire demanded perfection. I had to be silent, invisible, obedient. Perfect. But secrets have a way of unraveling. I've lived behind a veil of silence, hiding a voice with more power than anyone knows. A tragic accident from my past tied my hands, but now, threats loom over my life and Derick's. Mysterious calls, a blackmailer who knows too much, and a dangerous game I never agreed to play have made me a pawn in someone's deadly scheme. And then there's Derick. The man I'm supposed to despise. The man who looks at me like he's unraveling like he's starting to see the woman behind the mask. But love isn't a fairytale for people like us. With my father's life hanging in the balance and a shadow from my past threatening to destroy us both, I can't afford to fall for him. Not when I know the truth: Derick was the one who orchestrated this sham of a marriage. He's been pulling the strings all along. Now, the question isn't whether I'll lose my voice or my freedom. It's whether I'll lose my heart to the man who was never supposed to be mine. What will happen when the silent bride finally speaks?
