The Glory of the Billionaire

Romance

5.0

Zachary Danvers had everything he could ever want. He was successful, famous, wealthy, and surrounded by women, but there was something he lacked-a family. He'd watched other people with the ones they loved, the sense of belonging that he craved. He longed for the warmth of that connection, the bond that went deeper than anything his status or wealth could provide. Karina Hart, or Kari as her friends called her, was known as the best diagnostician in her field. She was sharp, intelligent, and respected, but behind her professional facade, she carried a heavy burden-a past she'd worked tirelessly to bury. No one truly knew the depths of her history, and she intended to keep it that way. The two found themselves at a lively party, laughter echoing around them as people danced and mingled. The air was thick with joy, and Zach couldn't help but be drawn to Kari's quiet beauty and grace. They spent the evening talking, laughing, and getting to know each other. The chemistry between them was undeniable, an unspoken connection that seemed to pull them together. But just as the night seemed perfect, Kari's phone buzzed, the screen lighting up with a single, cryptic message. Her face drained of color, her hand trembling as she stared at the words. "It's happening again." Zach noticed her sudden shift, the way her smile faltered. He took her hand, squeezing it gently, offering comfort she didn't even realize she needed. "What's wrong, Kari?" She hesitated, but the weight of her past was too heavy to ignore. "I have to go," she murmured, voice barely a whisper, but the panic was clear in her eyes. Zach didn't let go of her hand, his grip firm, determined to help her face whatever had come to haunt her. The night had taken a turn, and as Kari's past resurfaced, it wasn't just her future on the line. Zach knew that with the danger now circling, they were both at risk-her past had found them, and it would stop at nothing to tear them apart.

Kayla Summers, with her heart still a little broken, thought she had found in her new boyfriend, the discreet and caring sous-chef, the stability she had been seeking. Their relationship seemed perfect, like a peaceful dream. The idea of marriage was no longer just a formality, but a logical step, the inevitable next chapter of their story. But all of that came crashing down in an instant. The marriage license request, which should have been a simple step toward the future, was rejected without hesitation. "Sorry, ma'am, you're already married." The words echoed in her head like a thunderclap. How could she have forgotten that? How could she have ignored that part of her life? A part of her life she thought she had left behind. Daniel Hunt, the man she had vowed to marry, hadn't been around for too long. During his vacation in Las Vegas, he had married a beautiful woman-her-but after one night, he had left her alone. Since then, he had been absent, and their marriage seemed like a bad dream. But now, he was back, and he had a message to deliver. At her doorstep, Daniel looked at her intensely, his piercing gaze hiding a wealth of emotions. "Six months, Kayla. Six months with me, and then I'll sign the papers. Otherwise, you'll stay my wife, forever." These words hit Kayla like a slap. The choice seemed so simple, but in her heart, the sparks of an unspoken passion were already beginning to burn. She felt torn between the calm man she was about to marry and the billionaire, arrogant and insufferable, who had abandoned her... and who now seemed ready to claim her back.

Sasha Hamilton had always lived a life of luxury, never needing to worry about the intricacies of business or the weight of responsibility. At 24, she reveled in the freedom her father's wealth afforded her-a carefree existence of private jets, designer clothes, and extravagant parties. She had it all, and she didn't mind letting the world know it. However, her perfect world came crashing down the day her father, Garret Hamilton, summoned her into his office.

Arranged Marriage: The Price of Wealth

Romance

5.0

I was 18, and I had no real idea of what that truly meant until my father made a decision that would change my life forever. An arranged marriage, with Isaac Miller, a young billionaire whose name echoes around the world. My father made this decision to restore peace between our families, a peace I didn't even understand. Isaac Miller wasn't just a businessman; he was a living empire. Thousands of companies, investments in sectors that even the biggest corporations wouldn't dare touch. At 25, he was already at the helm of it all, a business genius, relentless, unshakable. And I, I was nothing more than Claudia Richardson, an 18-year-old girl, kind and innocent, who never asked to be a pawn in a game far beyond my understanding. I often wondered how a man like Isaac could commit to such a relationship, one based on a contract, on family benefits rather than real feelings. But my father had his reasons, reasons I didn't have the courage to question. He said it was for stability, to protect our name, our legacy. But that only frightened me more. Why would a man like Isaac, with so much power, agree to marry a girl like me? The marriage was just a formality for him, a way to maintain order and family interests. But what was I in all of this? Just a simple symbol of union between two empires.

Billionaires

Aaron was nothing more than a man of numbers, contracts, and ruthless decisions. His empire was built on the sweat of others, his success a symbol of his unwavering devotion to business.

The Billionaire's Betrothed

Romance

5.0

Alexandra Stewart wasn't one to ask for help. She had always prided herself on being self-sufficient, even if that meant sacrificing a little sleep and comfort. But this was different. Her father's health was deteriorating quickly, and the cost of his surgery was beyond what she could afford. She had exhausted every option-loans, selling her belongings, working double shifts at the local café-but nothing seemed to be enough. Desperation had set in, and she found herself willing to do anything, even if it meant swallowing her pride. Then, Jayden McCartney entered her life. The moment he walked into the café where she worked, it felt like the entire room paused. He was tall, with sharp features, dark hair that looked like it had been styled by some high-end salon, and an air of confidence that practically radiated off of him. Alexandra's first instinct was to run. The man was too good-looking, too wealthy, too out of her league. There was no way he'd ever want to associate with someone like her. But then, he approached her, his presence overwhelming, and made her an offer she never saw coming. "I need a girlfriend," he said, his voice low and steady, a flicker of something unreadable in his eyes. "And I think you're the perfect candidate." Alexandra blinked, taken aback. "Excuse me?" "I'm going to a wedding. My sister's wedding. And my grandmother keeps trying to set me up with women I don't want. I need someone to pretend to be my girlfriend for a few days, and I'm willing to pay you for your time." The proposal was too enticing to ignore. Her father's surgery was slipping further out of reach with every passing day, but this? This could be the solution she desperately needed. She had never considered pretending to be someone's girlfriend for money, but for her dad... she would do anything. But the more she thought about it, the more complicated things became. The way Jayden looked at her made her heart tremble in her chest, and every time he touched her, she could feel a spark that terrified her. She wasn't supposed to fall for him. She couldn't afford to. But Jayden seemed determined to make her his, and the longer she spent with him, the more impossible it became to ignore the connection growing between them. And maybe... just maybe... she didn't want to.

Romance

Cara didn't know whether she should be offended or threatened. How should she react to such an absurd offer? A million dollars, as if it was something she could simply ignore. But that was the point. This billionaire probably thought that such an amount could buy everything. He had no idea what he'd just unleashed. She took a deep breath before replying, her voice calm yet sharp: "Pregnant, so yes." She felt like she was walking a tightrope, but she wasn't about to let him intimidate her. Not by him. He seemed to think he was above it all. "You're going crazy, I'm leaving." The expression on his face was a mix of surprise and disdain, as if she were a mistake he couldn't wait to fix. But she wasn't backing down. "A million dollars, which you can use to pay for your mother's treatment and everything else, I don't care what you do with it." Every word was a blade she threw into the air, ready to pierce his ego. She knew it. She'd seen it in his eyes. He thought he could buy anything. She stopped, the reality of her words hitting her full force. What happens when a billionaire meets one of the craziest girls on the planet? Hilarious arguments, endless publicity stunts, living together, a fake relationship, surrogacy, sex, and much more. But would there be love? She doubted it, but one thing was certain: the adventure was just beginning.
