"Shying away from your wifely duties, little wife?" He questioned in a husky voice, lowering his face to hers.

Ariel quickly turned her head away, "No, Mr. Chaz, you're misunderstanding me again," She voiced quietly.

Aiden scoffed, not believing her. He looked down at his chest and found her slim hand still placed against it.

"You're quite corny, Ariel. Saying you don't want me, yet you're hands are all over me," Aiden whispered in her ear.

After overhearing her father and stepmother planning how they were going to marry her off in place of her Stepsister to the unsuccessful son of their debtor. That night,  Ariel plans her run away, but that same night, Ariel mysteriously gets kidnapped.

Waking up to discover she'd been kidnapped by the same people she was trying to run away from made her life seem like it had hit rock bottom.

Now, she was going to be forced into a marriage with a man she didn't know and didn't love. But, would everything remain the same for her when she discovers that her new husband was the richest Billionaire in the country?

Chaz Aiden was a successful billionaire with billions of businesses all over the world and zero interest in women, especially after his mother had divorced his father for a richer man. When his grandmother asked him to do him a favor by marrying the Hudson family's daughter, he knew it was for the sake of greed.

He swore to make his new wife's life a living hell, making sure he reminded her that she would always be an object he purchased, contracted and never to be loved.

Billionaire's Contracted & Unloved Wife

Ariel noticed Aiden and Ken share a secret look before facing Viktor.

"Viktor, what a surprise to see you," Ken went over and gave him a happy side hug.

Aiden's face had a little smile as he shook Viktor's hand. "Welcome, Viktor," his eyes narrowed playfully, conveying a secret message.

Viktor chuckled, shaking his head, he looked over at Ariel and squinted his eyes, "Who's this gorgeous lady?" He asked and walked over to Ariel, stretching his hand out to her.

Ariel was still staring at his face; she was really captivated by his features; he was the kind of face you saw once but never forgot.

She politely placed her hand on his, giving him a small smile. "Hi," She greeted softly.

"Hello, I'm Viktor, and I'd just like to say that you're very beautiful," Viktor commented, slowly running his eyes over Ariel.

Aiden and Ken shared another look, a look of discomfort. They didn't like the way Viktor was checking Ariel out.
