I am not the man of her dreams yet she keeps falling for me slowly every day!
*************

With a sweet, normal life and a bright career, I couldn't ask for anything else than crossing paths with a stranger from the past.


Little did I know that when he would arrive, he wouldn't come alone but with his dark secrets that would tear through my soul and a life of whirlwind that would turn my world upside down.


And with the serial killer on the loose, I would need to protect not only him, but also my biggest enemy- his father!


I am Elena Bell, and this is my story of friendship, betrayals, revenge and LOVE!

*************

EXCERPT:-

I sucked a long breath as my eyes widened. The fake pretentious smile broke as I stared at him as if he had grown two heads over his shoulders.

Devon turned to face me again, catching my eyes. With a smile playing on his lips, he continued, "And now that I think about it, I certainly am whipped by your charms, Elena!

I am not great with words, and no matter how much I prepared, no words can contain my feelings as they should.

So here I am asking you directly without beating around the bush."

I watched horrified, as he went down on one knee. People gasped audibly in shock, must be mirroring my expressions.

He finally pulled out his hand from his pants pocket to reveal a red velvet box.

'This is not happening! This is not happening!', my chants didn't change anything at all.

He pressed the small button with his thumb and its lid opened to show a diamond-studded ring inside.

My head turned heavy, and I thought I would collapse right then and there if he continued with that drama for another minute.

Clearly, he was not done yet.

Arrogant billionaire's enigmatic wife

The air was thick with tension, and every word that was exchanged between the mother and the son cut it only to make a mess out of it. I could control Devon, I was sure about it, but what I could do about Madison Sanders?


"I asked because clearly, you could have done better with the renovations and designs. I don't think it's up to your taste." She commented blatantly, shifting her gaze to me.


Devon was about to open his mouth, but I didn't allow him.


"You are right, MOM!" I stressed the word mom only to get the expected reaction. Keeping a polite smile on my face, I continued.


"We could have done better, but that would have also needed more money. And as we both are salaried employees, we need to check on our expenses given the wedding was also financially planned entirely by us.


And about Devon's taste... this is not what suited his taste. A small cosy home on a hill is what he would prefer over a luxurious mansion in the middle of the city."
