Will forever last Chapter 1 First date

7pm, one alluring night.

While everyone were in a rush to go home to meet their loved ones or to kiss their beds, Ava reeves was on her way to a restaurant to meet a date she met online. Tired she closed her eyes but she got there in no time and the driver informed her of their arrival , she paid her cab fare and highlighted getting ready to enter the restaurant.

She entered the restaurant and found her date, a tall man with broad shoulders and a stoic face waiting for her at their table, with her heart pounding she walked towards the table and brought out her hand to introduce herself once more and he returned the favour.

"Let's just cut to the chase Ava, do you want to get married"? Ava was stunned and couldn't find her voice, "You're really funny haha" ava laughed then she looked at him and he just stared at her "I'm sorry but this is our first time meeting , I can't possibly marry you, heck I don't even know you" ava responded, "it doesn't have to be a marriage with love in it , it's a marriage of convenience and trust me you'll benefit a lot" Curtis said.

Ava heaved a sigh of disappointment and stood up to leave but Curtis stopped her "please I'm begging you, we can get divorce whenever you want not just right now" Curtis said

"Why are we even talking about marriage on our first date " ava cried " why do I keep meeting freaks?"

"My nana actually picked you for me, I've never been on any dating app, she set this one up in hopes of meeting you, I've never really had any time for relationships and she's been hassling me "

Curtis pleaded, " ok fine , but if you're not a good person then I'm not staying with you for long"

" that's fine, I'll try my best , see you tomorrow at city Hall then. A bright light from nowhere shone on Curtis and just then Ava immediately stopped eating to admire the god infront of her , " damn this guy is cute" ava thought.

By 9pm they bade their farewells and departed leaving ava wondering how her life will look like going forward.

The next day , Ava woke up grumpy forgetting she had something important she was going to do then by 7:30 am she remembered and rushed to dress up before arriving at city Hall.

By the time she arrived, Curtis was there already, waiting for her. They entered inside city Hall with their documents and registered their marriage, Ava was gloomy because she was wondering what she got herself into and almost went into coma when she saw Curtis's grandma , she was the lady she saved from choking on her food almost a year ago and her neighbour in her apartment.

"Nana, what are you doing here?" Ava asked

"Oh dear , I'm here to see you and my grandson finally getting married, you know dear , I've been preparing for this day for almost a year now" Ava was beyond shocked but swallowed it and was a little relieved it was nana Grace , her neighbour

"But how are you living close to me ?" Ava wondered , "worry no more dear, its now in the past" nana Grace laughed

Ava nervously looked at curtis before asking, "well now we're married i guess I'll have to give you your space since you did it for nana Grace. However, I have two simple requests I hope you can promise to abide by."

"Speak!" Curtis responded tiredly as walked down the stairs.

"Firstly, unless you have no choice, do not reveal our relationship. Secondly, do not interfere in my personal matters. Do not worry, since we are married, I will never get close to another man."

After listening to Ava's requests, Curtis gave a slight smirk. A dangerous aura swept through the air, "I promise you but, after I give you some time to tidy up your past, I want us to have a trial marriage. After 3 months, I will publicly announce our marriage."

"Very well then" Ava nodded.

"Also...I don't believe a married couple should live separately! I'll give you a day to pack all your belongings and move to a place of my choice. My assistant will be in touch with you."

"Your assistant?" " well no problem then "MR BIG SHOT" haha ". Since they were now married, a request like this was reasonable. So she agreed with him besides she was tired of paying rent

"Good!"

After the two made their verbal agreement, Ava and curtis left to their various destinations. Curtis's assistant sat himself in the driver's seat and looked at Curtis through the rearview mirror, "President, shall we return to the office? Or would you like to return to the mansion to tell the chairman the news?"

"Follow Ava and report her every move to me!" Curtis ordered before stepping out of the car, "she seems very free spirited like she's lost something she can never recover"

As the president of an international enterprise, of course it was weird for him to marry someone on the first date. But he agreed with his nana after seeing her because she looked peaceful and she was beautiful so it wasn't really an issue.

Curtis chuckled suddenly, his nana really had a good eye for good things or in this scenario a good woman , she didn't seem to have any issue so he was cool with having her around.

Ava arrived at her boutique that morning but it was open already all thanks to Mia, her best friend, they were both owners of the boutique and they sold high quality wears for all genders.

Ava and Mia have been friends since their university days and it grew stronger with time, Mia was more of the extrovert while Ava was an introvert with a self esteem of 4 , so Mia was her backbone.

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancĆ©e. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

The heavy thud of the release stamp was the only goodbye I got from the warden after five years in federal prison. I stepped out into the blinding sun, expecting the same flash of paparazzi bulbs that had seen me dragged away in handcuffs, but there was only a single black limousine idling on the shoulder of the road. Inside sat my mother and sister, clutching champagne and looking at my frayed coat with pure disgust. They didn't offer a welcome home; instead, they tossed a thick legal document onto the table and told me I was dead to the city. "Gavin and I are getting engaged," my sister Mia sneered, flicking a credit card at me like I was a stray dog. "He doesn't need a convict ex-fiancƩe hanging around." Even after I saved their lives from an armed kidnapping attempt by ramming the attackers off the road, they rewarded me by leaving me stranded in the dirt. When I finally ran into Gavin, the man who had framed me, he pinned me against a wall and threatened to send me back to a cell if I ever dared to show my face at their wedding. They had stolen my biotech research, ruined my name, and let me rot for half a decade while they lived off my brilliance. They thought they had broken me, leaving me with nothing but an expired chapstick and a few old photos in a plastic bag. What they didn't know was that I had spent those five years becoming "Dr. X," a shadow consultant with five hundred million dollars in crypto and a secret that would bring the city to its knees. I wasn't just a victim anymore; I was a weapon, and I was pregnant with the heir they thought they had erased. I walked into the Melton estate and made an offer to the most powerful man in New York. "I'll save your grandfather's life," I told Horatio Melton, staring him down. "But the price is your last name. I'm taking back what's mine, and I'm starting with the man who thinks he's marrying my sister."

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

Nathaniel Stone

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.
