ENTANGLED WITH MY CONTRACTED HUSBAND Chapter 1 Prologue

Alexis sighed heavily as one of the drunken men held her down. She turned to him, ready to slam his face with her purse or maybe her fist. Whichever one worked faster.

'Going so fast?'' he asked in a slur, his breath smelling like rotten fruits mixed with herbs.

'I'm not here to keep you company,' She gritted out.

'I want to take you home with me,' he purred, his eyes mischievous. It made his hideous looking face look even more hideous.

Trying not to gag, she forced a straight face and laughed. 'You can't even afford me.''

The man laughed and dug his hand into his pocket to withdraw his credit card. He waved it in her face. Alexis knew this man wasn't joking. Whipping her head, she looked around the club, wondering where Haven went. He said he had to pee and he's been gone for five minutes.

She turned back to the man. "Get your hands off me," she said, her stomach churning.

''I know you wanted me over. You've been eyeing me since you came in.'' The man snickered. ''Lucky you. Girls like you are just my type.''

She tried to pull her hand but his grip on her wrist tightened. He placed his hand on her hair, stroking the strands almost crazily. Then he leaned forward, breathing heavily on her neck. ''You smell so nice.''

"Let go while I'm being nice," she warned.

''You're such a tease.''

She should have known what would happen if she came to a place like this. It was all Haven's fault, leaving her behind and now she had to deal with this harassment from a creepy man. Just when she was thinking of flipping him over, she felt a hand on her ass, grabbing it roughly.

She felt blood rush to her face and without thinking brought her fist up, slamming it straight into the pervert's jaw. He let her go, stumbling across the dance hall. For a moment, she felt herself wobble forward but then a pair of hands clamped on her shoulder, holding her down. When she turned around, it was Haven.

''You bitch!'' The man was up, ready to pounce on her.

Haven raised a brow at the man, making him halt. "One more step and I will break your legs," he said in a cold tone.

The man gulped, visibly sweating. Alexis glanced at Haven. The pervert in front of them was two times Haven's weight and yet he stood still like a rabbit facing a tiger. It made her wonder if Haven was part of some dangerous gang she didn't know about.

''It's her fault!'' he yelled.

'Oh please.' Alexis scoffed, rolling her eyes. ''You came to me.''

'I don't care whose fault it is.'' Haven stepped closer to him. 'But if you lay your hands on my wife again-' he didn't have to complete his words. The man got the memo and ran off without another word.

As Alexis watched him, she felt Haven step beside her. He looked at her for a second before walking away. She fought back a smile, wondering why she felt this happy hearing him call her 'his wife.'

Well, she was his wife.

His fake wife to be exact.

And their story began exactly a month ago.

Marrying My Runaway Groom's Powerful Father

Temple Madison
4.5

I was sitting in the Presidential Suite of The Pierre, wearing a Vera Wang gown worth more than most people earn in a decade. It was supposed to be the wedding of the century, the final move to merge two of Manhattan's most powerful empires. Then my phone buzzed. It was an Instagram Story from my fiancé, Jameson. He was at Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris with a caption that read: "Fuck the chains. Chasing freedom." He hadn't just gotten cold feet; he had abandoned me at the altar to run across the world. My father didn't come in to comfort me. He burst through the door roaring about a lost acquisition deal, telling me the Holland Group would strip our family for parts if the ceremony didn't happen by noon. My stepmother wailed about us becoming the laughingstock of the Upper East Side. The Holland PR director even suggested I fake a "panic attack" to make myself look weak and sympathetic to save their stock price. Then Jameson’s sleazy cousin, Pierce, walked in with a lopsided grin, offering to "step in" and marry me just to get his hands on my assets. I looked at them and realized I wasn't a daughter or a bride to anyone in that room. I was a failed asset, a bouncing check, a girl whose own father told her to go to Paris and "beg" the man who had just publicly humiliated her. The girl who wanted to be loved died in that mirror. I realized that if I was going to be sold to save a merger, I was going to sell myself to the one who actually controlled the money. I marched past my parents and walked straight into the VIP holding room. I looked the most powerful man in the room—Jameson’s cold, ruthless uncle, Fletcher Holland—dead in the eye and threw the iPad on the table. "Jameson is gone," I said, my voice as hard as stone. "Marry me instead."

The Sterling Scandal: Married To The Uncle

The Sterling Scandal: Married To The Uncle

C.D
4.5

I was at my own engagement party at the Sterling estate when the world started tilting. Victoria Sterling, my future mother-in-law, smiled coldly as she watched me struggle with a cup of tea that had been drugged to ruin me. Before I could find my fiancé, Ryan, a waiter dragged me into the forbidden West Wing and locked me in a room with Julian Sterling, the family’s "fallen titan" who had been confined to a wheelchair for years. The door burst open to a frenzy of camera flashes and theatrical screams. Victoria framed me as a seductress caught in the act, and Ryan didn't even try to listen to my pleas, calling me "cheap leftovers" before walking away with his pregnant mistress. When I turned to my own family for help, my father signed a document severing our relationship for a five-million-dollar payout from Julian. They traded me like a commodity without a second thought. I didn't understand why my own parents were so eager to sell me, or how Ryan could look at me with such disgust after promising me forever. I was a sacrifice, a pawn used to protect the family's offshore accounts, and I couldn't fathom how every person I loved had a price tag for my destruction. With nowhere left to go, I married Julian in a bleak ceremony at City Hall. He slid a heavy diamond onto my finger and whispered, "We have a war to start." That night, inside his secret penthouse, I watched the paralyzed man stand up from his wheelchair and activate a screen filled with the Sterling family's darkest secrets. The execution had officially begun.
