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 couldn't tear her eyes away from the mesmerizing dance of the fish outside. The vibrant hues of the marine life swirled together like a living kaleidoscope, and for a brief moment, she forgot where she was—or who she was with. She rose from her seat, compelled to get closer, and walked over to the transparent glass wall. Placing her hand on it, she leaned forward, captivated by the underwater spectacle. 


Behind her, Jaden’s gaze didn’t follow the fish. Instead, it lingered on her. He took in the way her dark hair cascaded over her shoulders, the subtle curve of her spine as she leaned forward, and the gentle awe in her expression. 


Slowly, he rose from his seat and joined her. Standing beside her, Jaden mimicked her stance, placing his hand on the glass. But unlike Anna, his attention wasn’t on the sea. It was on her.
