Lottery Bride: My Wife Faked Her Death And Raised A Child

Lottery Bride: My Wife Faked Her Death And Raised A Child

I faked my death to escape my husband and our marriage. Now he’s found me… and he’s not the only one who wants me back. Five years ago, I was forced into a loveless marriage with Kadeth Kingsgrave... the ruthless billionaire who hated me for what my father supposedly did. So I ran. I won the lottery, disappeared to a quiet island, built my dream pink café, and raised our secret son, Aryton, alone. I thought I was finally free. Until Kadeth walked back into my life and my café. He watches me behind the counter with those dark, possessive eyes that still make my pulse race. Those same eyes I once begged for in our marriage. Every lingering touch, every heated whisper of my real name, every slow, deliberate brush of his body against mine screams one thing: he’s done letting me go. Which is strange because I thought he hated me. The regret in his stare is as dangerous as the hunger. But Kadeth isn’t the only man burning for me. Cain, the dangerously charming local with a wicked grin and criminal hands, has been right here all along. He pins me against the storeroom shelves, steals kisses that leave me breathless, and makes me feel wanted in ways I never dared to want again. Now I’m caught between my cold, obsessive husband who’s spent years aching for me… and the man who taught me how to live again. Two powerful men warring for my body, my heart, and my mischievous son’s affection. *** Oh God, this was bad. This was so, so bad. Kadeth had me trapped against the prep table, his tall body pressed flush against mine, one hand gripping my hip with quiet, devastating possession while his thumb slowly stroked across my lower lip, wiping away flour like he had all the time in the world. His heat was everywhere, sinking straight through my clothes, making my stupid legs tremble. “Are you still mad at me Victoria?” he murmured with a low, rough voice, as his other hand slid down to my waist, pulling me even tighter against the hard line of his body. "Tell me how many times I have to say I'm sorry for you to forgive me." I tried to twist away, but his touch only tightened, sending heat rushing through me. “Kadeth… stop. I’m not your wife and I'm not doing this with you.” He didn’t answer. Instead, he leaned in closer, his forehead nearly resting against mine as his hand slowly traced the curve of my waist, possessive and deliberate. The back door creaked open. Cain walked in carrying a tray of fresh pastries, then froze for half a second as he took in the scene. His expression shifted from surprise to something darker, more dangerous. He set the tray down and moved closer without invitation, stepping behind me so I was trapped between them. “Careful, Kingsgrave,” Cain said, his voice low and mocking as one hand rested lightly on my lower back. “She’s not your property anymore.” Kadeth’s eyes flicked up, but he didn’t pull away. His fingers flexed on my hip, drawing me tighter against him in silent claim. “She’s still my wife.” Cain chuckled softly, his breath warm against the side of my neck as his hand slid around to rest on my stomach, pulling me back against his chest. “Wife who ran from you. Maybe she’s tired of a quiet, brooding husband.” Heat flooded my body. I was trapped between Kadeth’s dark, aching hunger and Cain’s filthy promise, my resistance crumbling fast. I opened my mouth to tell them both to fuck off. “Mummy!” Aryton’s small voice suddenly filled the kitchen as he pushed the door open and toddled in, clutching a crumpled drawing in his chubby fist. He skidded to a stop, eyes wide as he stared up at the three of us squeezed together. “Are you guys playing sandwich? Can I be the cheese? I want to be in the middle!” oh God. ... This has all the juicy stuff Marriage, divorce, hidden pregnancy, morally grey male leads, spicy scenes and so much more! ♡⁠(⁠>⁠ ⁠ਊ⁠ ⁠
