I never expected my life to change so drastically. One moment, I was a woman with dreams, deeply in love with a man I thought I’d spend my life with. The next, I was betrayed and heartbroken, walking in on him cheating without a hint of remorse.

That night, overwhelmed with pain and too much alcohol, I made a reckless decision, a one-night stand with a stranger who, to my shock, turned out to be my new boss.

Arec, the vice president of Denco Groups, was desperate. To secure his future as CEO, he needed a wife, and in a twist of fate, he offered me a contract marriage. It sounded absurd, but his desperation mirrored my own need to escape the wreckage of my life.

It was supposed to be simple: no emotions, no strings attached. A business arrangement, nothing more. I thought I could handle it, that I could keep my heart out of it.

I was wrong.

What started as a deal quickly spiraled into something far more complicated. As our fake marriage blurred into real feelings, the world around us began to close in. Disapproving family, old enemies, buried secrets, scheming rivals, and even an attempt on my life threatened to tear us apart.

This is my story, a journey of heartbreak, unexpected love, and a fight to protect what we built together. In a world filled with lies and deceit, can a marriage born out of necessity become something real?

Our Accidental Forever

As soon as the door clicked shut behind me, the forced smile I had plastered on my face vanished, replaced by a scowl so deep it hurt my jaw. My fingers clenched into fists at my sides, nails digging into my palms.

In the elevator, I hit the button for the lobby harder than necessary, letting out a sharp breath through my nose as the doors closed.

My reflection in the polished surface of the elevator walls caught my eye, perfectly composed, poised, like I hadn't just stood in the penthouse of the woman I despised, pretending to care about her happiness.

I exhaled again, shaking my head as I flexed and unflexed my hands, trying to release the tension that had taken over my body.

How could she be so insufferably oblivious?

The elevator hummed softly as it descended, the muted music doing nothing to calm me.
