This is my first story. Very excited very nervous:) ********************** My doll deserves to be in a fucking dollhouse, so a dollhouse she gets. I clear my throat, trying to shake off the daze she's put me in."You know," I start, leaning forward with a smirk, "it's almost unfair how you make everything else in here look dull in comparison." She arches a perfectly shaped brow, amusement flickering in her eyes. "Flattery will get you nowhere." "Won't it?" I challenge, resting my chin on my hand. "Because if I keep going, I bet I can at least get you to blush." She scoffs, but the faintest hint of pink creeps up her cheeks. "You're ridiculous." "And you're stunning," I counter effortlessly. "So I guess we're even." ---------------------------- Iliana Lopez is a ball of sunshine wrapped in designer heels and razor-sharp wit. A self-made powerhouse, she built her empire with nothing but ambition, talent, and a refusal to take no for an answer. Rich, beautiful, and always the smartest person in the room, she has it all on paper. But beneath the effortless charm and biting sarcasm lies a past she'd rather forget. Zaden King: He built his empire with fire, knives, and an iron will. A world-renowned chef with restaurants across the globe, he's as brilliant in the kitchen as he is impossible to deal with outside of it. The epitome of a brooding, grumpy man but he wasn't always this way. Once a cheerful, playful child and a proud mama's boy, his world shattered the day he lost his mother. The tragedy marked a turning point in his life, steering him down a darker path filled with alcohol, wild parties, and girls. But even amidst the chaos, Zaden found his footing. When they both meet, in each other they just might find their golden hour.

When Zayden Ashford returns from New York to take over his family's business empire, he's prepared for ruthless boardrooms and high-stakes deals. But, he isn't prepared for her. Waiting for him at the house he grew up in is a distraction he neither asked for nor can ignore-Aurelia Sinclair. The daughter of his father's business partner. The golden girl his parents adore. The temptation he absolutely doesn't need. She's no longer the quiet, meek girl from his childhood. Now, she's all curves and maddening confidence. Strutting around his house in clothes that should be illegal. Leaving her scent all over the place. Testing the limits of his patience and his self-control. Zayden wants her out. But how long can the cold, grumpy CEO deny the simmering chemistry and the temptation he feels towards the gorgeous brunette? #46 in ROMANCE #1 in chemistry #1 in strongfemalelead #1 in ceo #1 in grumpy #1 in banter #3 in slowburn #4 in forcedproximity #5 in temptation #12 in steamy #20 in business #26 in billionaire #28 in enemiestolovers #30 in hatetolove

He trapped me completely by keeping his palms on the arms of the chair. "I tried to tell you patiently.", I scoffed at his words. Patience and he don't go in a single sentence. He gripped my chin making me look into his eyes."Now listen carefully Miss, I want you for my niece as her babysitter. Tell me how much you'll take and we can seal the deal." This time it was me who blinked once, twice and thrice. "But I don't want to work for you." See the reason was absolutely clear.

"1200 dollars a week." I rolled my eyes making him lean towards me." 1500?" "Make it 15000 and still I won't work for you.", I retorted and pushed him. I walked to the door and gave him one glance."Next time when you talk to me, make sure you keep all your richness aside. That's one thing that I never want to see you again, you self-centred CEO."

"I can show how much of a 'little' guy I am." He said emphasizing the little. He came closer to me. Our lips were inches away. I could smell the scent of his cologne definitely not cheap.

I turned around. Guess I have to do this the hard way. I leaned near to his ear. He tensed. "Teasing me is only making me wet. Imagine you inside me. Screaming your name.
