𝑩𝒐𝒐𝒌 1 𝒐𝒇 𝒕𝒉𝒆 ♡𝐇𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞♡ 𝑺𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒔 𝐀𝐝𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞, the 𝑪𝑬𝑶 of 𝑹𝒆𝒈𝒆𝒍𝒊𝒂 𝑹𝒐𝒔𝒆, on her path to achieving her goal of becoming the next diamond queen, suddenly faced an unexpected turn of events that sent her straight back to what she always dreaded: marriage. She wasn't gamophobic or philophobic, but the thought of sharing her space, time, and life with someone intimately made her nauseous. But life never goes the way we desire-especially not when we're stubborn enough to resist what it demands. She had dodged relationships in the past like a soldier dodges bullets, but now it seemed inevitable. She had dreamt many things-good, bad, lucky, unlucky-but never imagined being married at the age of 32, that too to someone younger than her. Enter 𝐕𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐡. Looks like a cinnamon roll, is exactly a cinnamon roll. He could've been the golden child of his parents if he hadn't chosen to be a 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒇𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒐𝒓. Coming from a family of diamond merchants, it was rebellious of him to take such a step-but sometimes young blood, in rebellion, makes the best decisions. He had planned his life perfectly: gain experience, earn money, buy land in North East India, and settle there in the peace of hills and greenery. But oh, my little boy-he is now tied to a marriage he never asked for. And the worst part? He has no idea why someone so beautiful, carrying the aura of buying tens of him, decided to marry 𝒉𝒊𝒎. Not his elder brother. Not any cousin. But him. It wasn't just a shock-it was disbelief. He saw her eyes, and those brown orbs captivated him enough to keep him from noticing the glint of victory behind them. He had never even held a woman's hand in his entire life, yet now being hers made him feel he was in love. But... is she too? What will happen the day he discovers the reason behind the marriage

He owned her life. And he just legally married her without her consent. Evelyn Reed's life is a meticulously organized hell. Her tormentor? Rhys Kingston, her impossibly handsome, relentlessly cruel billionaire boss. He demands perfection, controls her every move, and just forced her to move into an apartment mere minutes from his penthouse. He's a devil in designer suits, and Evelyn is ready to snap. When she finally demands a two-week party vacation - a desperate escape to sun, sin, and a chance to get laid - Rhys's icy composure shatters. He forbids it, protests it, and even shows up at her door with her favorite takeout, his eyes burning with an unsettling, possessive fear. But Evelyn goes anyway. She's finally free. For one night, she's dancing, flirting, and moments away from a scorching kiss with a gorgeous stranger... until a furious, uninvited hand shoves him back. It's Rhys. He didn't just crash her vacation; he's invaded her life. And when she finds him half-naked in her hotel room, claiming to be her husband to the front desk, Evelyn discovers the horrifying truth: Rhys isn't just an obsessive boss. He's a man driven to the brink, who - in a shocking act of calculated desperation - already legally married her without her knowledge. Trapped in his sprawling villa, forced into a shotgun wedding by his formidable grandmother, Evelyn's world spins out of control. But the ultimate revelation comes late one night: a glowing computer screen, her bikini photo, and Rhys in the dark, clutching her stolen lingerie. He's not just obsessed. He's pathologically, erotically hers. Can Evelyn survive her marriage to a man who literally stole her freedom for love? Or will his dark obsession consume her, body and soul? 🔥 OBSESSED BILLIONAIRE BOSS | FORCED MARRIAGE | GRUMPY SUNSHINE | SLOW BURN SPICE 🔥

He let out a slight shrug, "Putting you to death was not what I was pointing towards. After all, it is merely the mouth that talks." I shivered, as I blinked naïvely, "Humph! A-And are there methods to silence this alone?" I huffed. He snapped his arrogant, coldly-heated gaze in my direction, and my insides clenched, as I noticed his deep, powerful ocean orbs snap down to my... lips. He then snapped his gaze away, fixing his right wrist watch as his deep, authoritative voice came: "Many, trust me." ~~~~~~~~ Fate has a weird hobby of slamming us right in the face about things we so took for granted. My name is Charlotte Thorne. Never claimed to be special, never cared about that. I grew up behind the pages of my books and in the different worlds of my love and romance novels. The world, as I knew it, consisted of my humble yet happy family, my studies, hobbies, friends and a potential perfect love story I was supposed to live. Now what happens when the world, as I knew it, turns out to be mostly a lie I've lived in for a long time? I conclude a simple golden rule: Love is pure, illogical crap. And so, long story short: with my nëw rules, a strict vow, a new family, fresh job, and on top of all those, a cold and arrogant Rickard Ellington Conway as my employer, guess I have a whole lot to deal with in this fresh new world of mine ─which'll get rather interesting... Book I of the Charlotte's Story Series. Trigger Warning: This story may contain scenes/content of violence, vulgar language, etc. that might be triggering to some audience.

Letter for you (Book I)

31 parts Complete Mature

I never told her. Not because I didn't love her, I did. But because I didn't know how to say it without ruining everything we already were. So I loved her in quiet ways. The way I looked at her when she wasn't watching. Through the smiles that said more than my mouth ever could. Through the photos I took of her-little moments of beauty she never saw in herself. On the back of each picture, I wrote her a note. A thought. A memory. A truth I was too scared to speak aloud. Then she left. One accident. One plane ticket. Five years of silence and I waited. I waited because some people only happen to you once. I thought when she came back, maybe we'd have another chance. But fate doesn't care about hope. When she returned, it was with an arranged marriage to Nathan. My best friend. A good man. One I couldn't bring myself to hate. Nathan said the words I never could. I was ready to stay silent again-until I saw her eyes. And so I gave her the pictures. Not words. Not a speech. Just memories. And on the back, a quiet confession I'd written for no one but her. This isn't the story of who got her. It's about the one who never found the words. Unspoken feelings. The one who collects memories but never tries to say the words. This is the story of Carl Salvador. Book I: Letter For You Book II: I love you in every unspoken way Book III: Life after lifetime
