Tonight was one of those nights. I worked here at this place for illicit affairs and don't judge me, they payed better than any other store in the town. I saved enough for my wedding in just a month working here. As I brought another bottle of white wine in an ice bucket to the VIP lounge. Athena, the manager of the place grabbed me and pulled me aside. My heart skipped a bit, afraid that I had made another mistake. "You have to help me". She said, biting down on her lips nervously. "Why? What's wrong?". My eyes did a quick scan across the crowded club, afraid that one of the teenagers had caused another trouble like the last time. "Another teenager?". "No, not at all. It's a VIP guest". I could sense her fear. "Did he touch you?". I frowned angrily. Athena was too cold to work in a place like Skye. "No, No Ruby, you don't get me", she snapped. "The girl I hired to attend to the VIP's today, she called in sick just now...". The moment I looked into her eyes, I knew where she was headed with this. "Hell No!". I protested. "I told you already, I can't handle those people". "I know, I know but I really need your help".

My Mates, Their Enemies Chapter 1 Night owl

RUBY'S POV.

Night Owl, an odd name for an odd place, no one really knew what happened in here but one thing was for certain, it was a club for the rich. Rumors has it that it is where the rich, powerful and dangerous personalities came to satisfy their odd interest both sexually and financially. Night owl was built by a Russian in this little town of Salem, no one knew who he is or his name, for now Night owl was run by a two faced man with multiple talents for killing and swindling people, the notorious, Scar. He was named scar due to the large number of scars that ran across his face giving him a terrifying look, most of the bartenders spread rumours of how his wife and child had left him due to his appearance as he frequently scared their child with his face. It was a joke to all but wasn't to Scar, a couple of bartenders went missing due to this, they were never found. So in night owl, you are first taught to see and remain silent.

To the ordinary eyes, Night Owl was just a club for spoilt rich kids and wealthy bastards but it was a front for something bigger than you could ever imagine.

The club is located at the outskirts of the town, isolated from therest. It was an empty place in the daytime but sprang to life at nightand while the young partied and squandered their money on women and alcohol upstairs with loud music blaring from the speakers, thebig dangerous men convened in a secret room under the club,shielded by the noise of the club, carrying out their dangerous affairsunderneath.

Tonight was one of those nights.

I worked here at this place for illicit affairs and don't judge me, they payed better than any other store in the town. I saved enough for my wedding in just a month working here. As I brought another bottle of white wine in an ice bucket to the VIP lounge. Athena, the manager of the place grabbed me and pulled me aside. My heart skipped a bit, afraid that I had made another mistake.

"You have to help me". She said, biting down on her lips nervously.

"Why? What's wrong?". My eyes did a quick scan across the crowded club, afraid that one of the teenagers had caused another trouble like the last time. "Another teenager?".

"No, not at all. It's a VIP guest". I could sense her fear.

"Did he touch you?". I frowned angrily. Athena was too cold to work in a place like Skye.

"No, No Ruby, you don't get me", she snapped. "The girl I hired to attend to the VIP's today, she called in sick just now...". The moment I looked into her eyes, I knew where she was headed with this.

"Hell No!". I protested. "I told you already, I can't handle those people".

"I know, I know but I really need your help".

"I can't Athena, Adam would be so upset if he found out that I was attending to the VIP's".

"I won't tell him, I promise". She crossed her heart, looking up at me desperately.

"I still can't", I began to walk away.

"I'll pay double, double your pay". I turned around sharply to find her biting down on her lips, this must be out of her own pay check. I grinned sheepishly at her words.

"Once the night is over, I'll pay", she added quickly.

"Alright then, we have a deal but only tonight". I warned but she didn't seem to mind, she only smiled at me and hurried off.

"They would be arriving shortly, you should be outside to welcome them". She said, hurrying off to attend to other issues. I sighed deeply and descended the stairs to the main floor, where the teenagers partied. I had worked here long enough to know that these VIP guests were the most dangerous people alive, so I made a mental note to myself to thread carefully.

I stepped outside just in time to see a black SUV pull into the front of the club.

"Great!". I hissed and straightened myself, plastering a fake smile that I had learnt to quickly create regardless of my mood.

A large man dressed in black with dark glasses, stepped out from the front seat and pulled opened the back door for someone, he was obviously the guard. Lucian Greyhound, a tall muscular manstepped out from the car.

The moment I saw him, my eyes twitched, he was the most handsome man I had ever seen, unlike the other Potbellied wealthy bastards that frequented the club, he was different. His eyes were like the clear summer sky and that scent, I racked my brain so hard to find out where I had perceived it before.

His suit clung so sexually to his hot body, he stood two inches taller than me and that was rare, I am a very tall woman even taller than my fiancee, Adam, most people said I looked like a model. His face was heavenly, right out of a magazine, his sharp jawline, slender and full lips with his hair, tussled a bit only made him look sexy. He must be a billionaire, I thought, his demeanor was too expensive to be poor.

Our eyes locked and I felt my legs give way under my body. I struggled to maintain my balance, and then the weirdest thing happened, I felt myself flow into my panties. I rebuked myself immediately, this was wrong, I am engaged to a very great man. When I looked at him again, I remembered what my grandmother used to say, "Where else can a woman condone her dirty thoughts, if not her mind?". I grinned, I needed to cut myself some slack, it's natural to admire men plus I am certain that nothing would ever happen between us.

"Lucian!!!". I heard a female voice shriek behind me. I turned around to find my boss's daughter, Candy rush out of the club to Cling onto his arm but he simply removed her arm politely.

"My father has been waiting". Candy said eagerly, oblivious to his cold gaze.

I shook my head pitifully, girls can be so stupid at times.

"Welcome sir". I said professionally with a smile. He finally looked at me but his expression didn't change he just swept his eyes over me and then looked away. I felt downcast that his eyes had not lingered a bit but to my surprise his eyes flew back to me and it widened as he stared at me in surprise.

The sterile white of the operating room blurred, then sharpened, as Skye Sterling felt the cold clawing its way up her body. The heart monitor flatlined, a steady, high-pitched whine announcing her end. Her uterus had been removed, a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding, but the blood wouldn't clot. It just kept flowing, warm and sticky, pooling beneath her. Through heavy eyes, she saw a trembling nurse holding a phone on speaker. "Mr. Kensington," the nurse's voice cracked, "your wife... she's critical." A pause, then a sweet, poisonous giggle. Seraphina Miller. "Liam is in the shower," Seraphina's voice purred. "Stop calling, Skye. It's pathetic. Faking a medical emergency on our anniversary? Even for you, that's low." Then, Liam's bored voice: "If she dies, call the funeral home. I have a meeting in the morning." Click. The line went dead. A second later, so did Skye. The darkness that followed was absolute, suffocating, a black ocean crushing her lungs. She screamed into the void, a silent, agonizing wail of regret for loving a man who saw her as a nuisance, for dying without ever truly living. Until she died, she didn't understand. Why was her life so tragically wasted? Why did her husband, the man she loved, abandon her so cruelly? The injustice of it all burned hotter than the fever in her body. Then, the air rushed back in. Skye gasped, her body convulsing violently on the mattress. Her eyes flew open, wide and terrified, staring blindly into the darkness. Her trembling hand reached for her phone. May 12th. Five years ago. She was back.

"We're friends," I said, voice barely steady. Aaron's lips curled, slow and cruel. "No, we're not." "Friendship's too pure for this." His hand slid to my waist, hot and claiming as he yanked me flush against him. "Do friends kiss like this?" He kissed me. Hard. Possessive. "Or grab each other like this?" A squeeze to my ass. A gasp. "Or think filthy little thoughts?" His breath burned against my ear. "Touch themselves to it?" My cheeks flamed. My body betrayed me. "Stop lying, Venus." His voice was a growl. "I feel it. Every time I'm near you." I whispered, "But you don't even like me." His smile was pure sin. "I don't have to like you to fuck you." Then the offer: "Let's get it out of our system. No lies. No strings. Just truth." He grabbed my chin, eyes lit with hunger. "Say the word, princess." A whisper against my lips- "I'll ruin you." And God help me... I wanted him to. --------- Aaron Sinclair needs a bride to claim his inheritance. Venus Carter needs a miracle to save her dying mother. What begins as a cold contract marriage spirals into a dangerous game of buried trauma, stolen identities, and forbidden attachment. He's ruthless, closed off, and refuses to love. She's resilient, lost, and refuses to stay unloved. But when secrets unravel revealing a stolen childhood, a tragic past, and a vengeful stepmother, their fake marriage is the only thing standing between them and destruction. In a world ruled by power and silence, will love dare to speak first or break them both instead?

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
