A Dark Billionaire Romance

How far would you go to save someone you love? Would you give up your body? Your mind? Your heart? 

I did and it cost me everything. 

He says he owns me. And it's true. 

I've signed over complete control of my body and life for six months to a man I don't know. Five years he's been planning this. They say revenge is a dish best served cold. But my blackmailer serves it up white hot. He's addicted to my innocence, and I'm addicted to him. 

He likes to hurt me. I love to let him. He brings me to life. He sets me free. He makes my heart feel things it shouldn't. 

But he also scares me. He holds the fate of my brother's life in his hands. A life behind bars for crimes I know he didn't commit. My blackmailer can't give up his revenge on my family, and I can't be with him if he doesn't. But I'm nothing more than a butterfly caught in his net. Do I really have a choice?

❝𝐀𝐝𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐭 𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐝𝐢𝐚 & 𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐬𝐡𝐚 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚❞ I should not feel anything for someone who is my enemy, someone who has caused me so much pain that the very thought of him should fill me with nothing but rage and bitterness. Yet, against all logic, I feel it-I feel the heat rising beneath my skin . The mere idea of his touch sends shivers down my spine, igniting sensations that I desperately want to ignore. This isn't right. I shouldn't crave the presence of someone I despise, but my body betrays me, responding to him in ways that my mind fiercely rejects. He stands so close that his breath fans across my face, warm and intimate, stirring emotions that I refuse to acknowledge. A slight movement is all it would take for our lips to meet, for this unbearable tension to shatter into something far more dangerous. His hands are braced on either side of my head, trapping me, yet he doesn't need to touch me to make me feel trapped. His body hovers just out of reach, yet I can sense him, every inch of him, as if the air itself is an extension of his presence. I shouldn't desire this man. I shouldn't want to close the gap, to feel the press of his body against mine. I should be repulsed, disgusted by how my thoughts betray my hatred. But my body doesn't listen to reason , it yearns for what it shouldn't, driven by instincts I can't control. I despise him-my enemy- My rival-but the line between hatred and desire is blurring, and I'm terrified of which side I might fall on. {𝖠 𝗌𝗍𝖺𝗇𝖽𝖺𝗅𝗈𝗇𝖾 } | | Mature content 18+| |

She's the housemaid with tired l He's the billionaire's son :too smooth, too smug, and way too used to getting what he wants. But not her. She hates him. At least, she *thinks* she does. He claims he doesn't care. But if that's true, why does he always seem to end up exactly where she is? su They're fire and steel, oil and spark. It started with hate. It might not end that way. She was supposed to drop off a key... and ended up breaking a *very* expensive antique. Now he says she owes him *five years of her salary*. She told him to go to hell. He told her he'd gladly drive her - in his Lamborghini. Now he's showing up everywhere. Watching her mop floors like it's a movie. Throwing smirks like confetti. And somehow, she *hates* that she notices him. And his stupid jawline. And his even stupider smile. He's annoying. She's impossible. And somewhere between "I hate you" and "don't touch me"... sparks are flying. --- *"You're not my type," she snapped.* *"Good," he replied. "I hate competition."* ---. *Five Years or Forever?* *Heartbound* Enemies. Chemistry. Forbidden tension. One heart's already falling - the other's just pretending not to. --- *Author's Note:* Think this is your regular billionaire-falls-for-the-maid romance? Think again. This is slow-burn, clean, sharp-witted, and full of late-night tension, cold stares, and accidental closeness they never saw coming. He's not a savior. She's not a damsel. But when their worlds collide? Even pride might not survive. Start reading and see what five years of punishment does to a heart that just wants to be free.

"I have a proposition for you that will benefit the both of us" "I don't want to hear it!" "Yes you do I know deep down you want to save the farm and your home" "Are you stupid or just deaf? Get out of my apple orchard and off of my land now!" I growl trying to not let his annoying presence distract me from work "Not till you listen then I'll leave" I continue to ignore him "I'm going to take that as a go ahead to speak, I liked that idea you guys had-" "Summer in exchange for saving our farm?" "Yes except I'd like to add my own terms is that okay with you?" "I suppose" I grumble "I want a fiancé in exchange for the farm, so I can please Mum's last wishes, that means staying at my house with us and staying the night, being seen in public with me, hanging out with me etc a normal relationship and of course satisfying my manly needs" copping the phrase he had heard Summer use "Summer would love that" I mutter "That's only my first term, my second term is I don't want Summer" he states gruffly "You want me to find you a fiancé surely being the great David Lawson that shouldn't be too hard" I snort as I start to climb down the ladder but I miss a rung and I'm about to fall to my death, okay that's a bit dramatic, a few metres. My fall of a few metres is cut short by David who catches me in his arms holding me firmly to his rock hard chest "I don't want Summer or some random town girl, I want you Maddie" he murmurs huskily into my ear sending a wave of desire through my body that disgusts me. I fight out of his arms till I'm on my own two feet. The rich douche wants me and I have a feeling this won't bode well for me. * * An excerpt, like it? Try it😌
