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.

Think Twice Before Opening Your Mouth!

DEVON

My foot was continuously tapping on the car's floor in impatience while I busied myself with playing video games on my phone. Christine sat tensed beside me, her office bag resting between us.

She was ruining her manicure and nail art for which she must have spent thousands of dollars from her salary even after getting scolded by her mother.

But I didn't stop her. Because I was as nervous as her. We both had our own ways of handling the situations, and when the situation is so tense, we avoid any conversations to keep ourselves focused and pulled together.

The car entered the Trinity square, and my head shot up from my phone. Every time I passed by this road, my eyes found the spot where Carson's dead body was found.

Numerous cars- some aware of that fact and some not- ran over the same spot. A shiver ran down my spine like that every time before the car entered through the large gates of the office building.
