Arrogant billionaire's enigmatic wife

I am not the man of her dreams yet she keeps falling for me slowly every day! ************* With a sweet, normal life and a bright career, I couldn't ask for anything else than crossing paths with a stranger from the past. Little did I know that when he would arrive, he wouldn't come alone but with his dark secrets that would tear through my soul and a life of whirlwind that would turn my world upside down. And with the serial killer on the loose, I would need to protect not only him, but also my biggest enemy- his father! I am Elena Bell, and this is my story of friendship, betrayals, revenge and LOVE! ************* EXCERPT:- I sucked a long breath as my eyes widened. The fake pretentious smile broke as I stared at him as if he had grown two heads over his shoulders. Devon turned to face me again, catching my eyes. With a smile playing on his lips, he continued, "And now that I think about it, I certainly am whipped by your charms, Elena! I am not great with words, and no matter how much I prepared, no words can contain my feelings as they should. So here I am asking you directly without beating around the bush." I watched horrified, as he went down on one knee. People gasped audibly in shock, must be mirroring my expressions. He finally pulled out his hand from his pants pocket to reveal a red velvet box. 'This is not happening! This is not happening!', my chants didn't change anything at all. He pressed the small button with his thumb and its lid opened to show a diamond-studded ring inside. My head turned heavy, and I thought I would collapse right then and there if he continued with that drama for another minute. Clearly, he was not done yet. *********** Instagram: author_rutujap Discord: https://discord.gg/wpyvsh42 ****** The cover is mine.

Does Your Father Know This?

DEVON

I was anxious about everything happening around us. It all started with Carson's murder and since then, we were all suffering for reasons unknown. Or perhaps, there were some solid reasons, but I was unaware of them.

I never paid much attention to these things until Elena got involved in them. I wasn't blind or deaf to not knowing the strange incidents happening around me.

I always felt like someone was constantly watching me, following me everywhere I go. I didn't say it out loud to anybody yet, but there was always this weird feeling in my mind that made the hair on the back of my neck stand up in alert.

I thought it must be because of my name. It might be some business rival. But why Elena?

She had nothing to do with the business.

But she had everything to do with you, my subconscious pricked at me.

I couldn't focus on work as my mind kept wandering to Elena and thoughts of her safety. I looked up when someone knocked on the door of my office.
