Janette's world is shattered the day she walks into her home, fresh from her graduation, only to find out the people who raised her aren't her real parents. Her true identity? The long-lost daughter of wealthy millionaires, Robert and Julia Stark. Just as she grapples with this shocking revelation, her cousin suddenly claims her as his sister, and before she can even catch her breath, she is forced into a marriage with Asher Norman-the dangerously arrogant billionaire with a vendetta against her newfound family.

Bound by duty and deception, Janette must navigate a world of power, secrets, and betrayal, where love seems impossible, but desire burns bright. Asher's thirst for revenge threatens to consume them both, but Janette isn't the helpless pawn everyone believes she is. She'll have to decide if she can break free from her past-or if loving the one who wants to destroy her is the most dangerous game of all.




♥♥♥

"You're free to go, Janette. If you want, I'll pretend everything that happened between us was just a fleeting dream," Asher said, his voice strained as he gently took her hand. His fingers traced the outline of her wedding ring, lingering on it.

"You've done so much for me. Can't I do this one thing for you?" he added softly. "If you want, you can sell it or throw it away. But please, don't ask for the wedding band back-the one you made me wear. I want to keep it... as a souvenir, Janette."

His voice faltered as he turned his head away, wiping the tears that threatened to fall from his eyes. "Please," he whispered, almost desperately.

"Go... before I change my mind and force you to stay with me forever," he said, his voice breaking as he stood up. Janette saw the tears he was trying to hide, and a pang of disappointment twisted in her heart. She knew-he was hurting just as much as she was.

"Annabeth, I-" "SHUT UP!" I yell. I take the ring off and throw it at him. "I hate you! Do you know that? I hate you. I will never marry you. Ever. Why do you think I would marry you?" I start crying. "I don't want to be with you. I don't want to see you again. I don't even like you!" I look at the ground as tears overtake me. How could he do that? Why did he do it in front of so many people? 'Witnesses', he said. That belongs in a court case, not a marriage proposal. I can't believe anyone would think I want this... He comes up to me and puts his hands on my cheeks, forcing me to look in his eyes. "You must act excited about this, Annabeth. You can't tell anyone your true feelings about this, especially Alexander." So that's what this is about. He saw me being friendly with Xander and has to keep me for himself. I always thought he liked me...

When a handsome gentleman approaches her and offers her the one thing she needs to stay, she accepts. Everything would be provided for her? It was too good to be true. She wasn't aware of the consequences that came with the position, like having to leave all her friends and family, being held prisoner, and... get married? And then she meets Alexander Matthews, and he changes her whole world. Can he help her get away or will she be stuck forever?

He wanted to make her overcome her trauma, her nightmare. He just wanted to see her being happy and cheerful like she had done... Always. "We have a long path ahead of us." He spoke again. "What path?" Annabella snapped at him. "You're just a mere teenager, aren't you?" The boy's mouth started twitching. "Of course not. Don't underestimate me." "Then tell me... Who are you?" "It's better to know less. The more you know, the more you get into trouble. I don't want that, Big Sister." Ewww... Big sister? Here the story starts... Annabella Zoey Parker was a girl who loved the concept called, 'Single Forever.' She never wanted to get married not because she didn't believe in love or because she got betrayed by her ex-boyfriend. In fact, she didn't even have a boyfriend. It was NOT because she wasn't attractive enough. She was actually a beautiful girl. The thing was, she loved being alone and doing her work peacefully without no one there to meddle in her business. However, her parents especially her mother didn't understand that. She wanted to get her daughter married as soon as possible. "You have to marry soon. You are almost 26. How long do you want to stay single? Until you turn 30s or 40s?!" Annabella took a deep breath before turning towards her mother with a serious face. "Okay, I'll get married." Mrs Parker's eyes lit up instantly. "Really?" She asked with a wide smile on her face. "Yeah, but on one condition. You should wait till next year." Annabella stated. Mrs Parker was confused. "But why?" "Because he's still seventeen. He'll become an adult next year so we can get married right away." Mrs Parker: "..."

He walked slowly towards her while she walked backward. "Desperate? Arrogant? Am I?" he said in a very deep voice. She felt her voice had gone to hell. She was trying to speak but no sound, just words. "I think you have not seen how desperate I can be" he brought his lips near to her ear and said in a whisper.

#Mature Content in later chapters# A sharp pull by my wrist brought me back to the wall. I hold my breath for a moment. "what the hell" I cussed. "Shh, baby girl" he exclaimed. I cringed with the endearment he used. He brought his face near to my face. His breath is fanning all over my lips. It raised my heartbeat to a different level. It must be heard by him also. His smirked face saying it all. His eyes are gazing over my lips and he started closing the small gap we have between our lips to be mingled into one. Sensing his intentions I closed my eyes & moved my face to the left. He stopped right away & increase the gap between us which I really appreciate but the hold of his hand on my wrist is very tight.

It hurt me like hell. There must be a big cut in my hand. Ignoring the pain in my hand. I showed my other hand finger towards him and said "even I was not interested in this marriage. I am kind of forced into this" Which I am not, my subconscious mocked me. But I wont give him that satisfaction. Although I was not forced but I had no other option than to accept this marriage. ______________________ To know more do read "Bound by Vows"😉 WARNING- This is the first draft and you will find mistakes but i will correct them when i get the time to edit it. ##I have removed the story from here and moved to another platform.

"You're a spoiled, ungrateful brat." Asher snarled, turning around so suddenly that I nearly fell from the sheer momentum. His blue eyes blazed with an icy fire as they narrowed into slits. "Why are you so ignorant?" He took a large step towards me as his words rocketed around the room. I bit my trembling lip with all the strength in the world. No freaking way. Absolutely not. I refused to cry in front of him. "Can't you see that I care?" His tone so dangerously quiet, so very low. I pushed myself back further into the stony wall, hoping it would swallow me whole. "Is that not enough?" His eyes dropped to my lips, flickering back up as quickly as they had fallen. All I could see was him, all I could feel was him. He had captured every single one of my senses. And I hated it. He made me feel things that I sure as heck didn't deserve to feel. "To hell with the rest of them." He growled, "you're mine." ------- Ariella Gates is the daughter of one of the richest men in the world. As someone who is set to inherit billions, she's never had to lift a finger.
