I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.

"Your Majesty, shall we begin?" A beautiful female elf asked while walking towards a magic circle inscribed on the floor.

Her name was Hilda and she was known across the elven kingdom as the greatest healer among the elves.

Aside from being a popular healer in the kingdom, she was also the best friend of the elven queen.

"Yes," The elven queen replied with a nod before walking towards the magic circle as well.

The two began to chant a spell, causing the magic circle underneath their feet to glow with a purple hue.

As time went by, the ground underneath their feet began to tremble subtly as if the land itself could feel the magic coursing through their veins.

However, neither of them was bothered by this as their chant grew louder, with the words spilling out of their mouth like a river.

Dark clouds gathered across the night sky, twirling as if drawn to the magic circle like moths to flame.

In the blink of an eye, a bolt of purple lightning struck the magic circle, causing Hilda to be flung backward, tumbling across the courtyard like a leaf on a gust of wind.

However, the elven queen remained standing, unaffected by the shockwave caused by the lightning, and with a wave of her hand, a gust of wind blew across the courtyard, clearing away the dust while she searched for any signs of life on the magic circle.

Suddenly, a tiny, helpless cry rose from the center of the magic circle and Evelyn's gaze snapped towards the spot the baby was crying from.

"Yes!!!" Evelyn exclaimed excitedly.

She hurriedly lifted the baby into her arms before noticing Hilda walking towards her.

"Your Majesty, the spell? Did it work?" Hilda asked with a worried look on her face.

"Yes, it did," Evelyn replied with a smile right after she finished examining the baby's body.

Hearing this, Hilda sighed with relief. She was glad to hear that the spell had worked out without any side effects.

"Thank you so much, Hilda. This couldn't have been possible without your help."

"Anything for you, your majesty. But please, do not forget to take the herbs I recommended for you, it will help speed up the process of the lactating spell."

"I will. I can't thank you enough for everything you've done for me. I'm forever indebted to you," Evelyn expressed her gratitude as a grateful smile spread across her lips.

"As your friend, it's the least I could do. So please, for now, focus on your baby and take him in before he catches a cold."

Evelyn nodded in understanding and was about to leave the courtyard when she noticed that the magic circle was still glowing on the floor, with the candles around it still burning.

However, Hilda noticed the look on Evelyn's face and could guess what was on her mind, so she reassured her. "Don't worry about the cleanup, I will take care of it. Now, please go in and take care of your baby."

Evelyn nodded with a smile and walked away with Orion in her arms.

She couldn't seek the aid of a maid because what she and Hilda were doing tonight was actually a secret, and no one but them knew of it.

Also, there was no one in the castle aside from them because Evelyn had given everyone in the castle a month off to spend with their friends and family.

She did this so that no one would know what happened tonight.

Evelyn continued to walk along the empty corridor leading to her bed-chamber. She couldn't wait to start a new life with her little baby.

However, while she was busy imagining a beautiful future involving her and her baby, Orion, who was currently in her arms with his eyes wide open as he gazed upon his beautiful mother, couldn't help but be stunned by her otherworldly beauty.

'Wow, she's really an elf,'
