Night Owl

Jaden Blackwell was given an ultimatum by his parents: get married in six months or lose the company to his cousins. And when Anna Hayes walked into his office seeking for a loan to save her dying sister, he saw it as the perfect opportunity.

She marries him, she saves her sister, he saves the company he worked hard for.

The contract was simple, no intimacy, no strings attached and most importantly; no love.

But what happens when he goes against everything he has ever known and realizes that Anna might just be his downfall? And he began to question himself: was it still a contract?

And what happens when he finds out Anna might not be who she claims to be?





A CONTRACT MARRIAGE TO THE RUTHLESS BILLIONAIRE

Anna lay sprawled on the bed, her wrists chafed and sore from the bindings, her breathing shallow but steady. Her entire body ached from hours of tension, and her mind raced with fury. The cabin walls closed in around her, suffocating her with a silence that amplified her frustration. 


She was trapped, bound, and at the mercy of a man who seemed to have none. Jaden Blackwell. The man she had foolishly thought she could endure for the sake of her sister. How naive she'd been to think that signing a contract with him would mean anything less than surrendering her freedom. 


The sound of heavy boots on the wooden porch made her heart lurch. The door creaked open, and Jaden strode in, his presence filling the room like a thunderstorm about to break. He held a bottle of water in one hand and a cold, detached expression on his face. 


“You need to drink,” he said flatly, placing the bottle on the nightstand.
