Mr. Billionaire's Unwanted Bride
*Based on a true story where love has its dark sides but burns hotter than ever* Abandoned by her mother and orphaned at a young age, Natalie held a deep-seated mistrust for the world especially when it came to men. Her strategy for survival was simple: work hard enough to scrape by each month and rely solely on yourself! Fate had other plans in store for her. Enter Alonso Valois, a charismatic billionaire who swept into her life and showed her just how right a man can be. Despite Natalie's attempts to keep him at arm's length, Alonso who had no intention of letting her slip away shocked her by proposing just two weeks after their first encounter! Was this the "happily ever after" Natalie had dreamt of? Far from it. Walking into the Valois mansion with Alonso's dad calling all the shots felt like walking into a lion's den for Natalie. Little did she know that while she was trying her best to fit in, her in-laws were scrambling to conceal the truth about what happened to the women in the Valois family. As the past comes haunting Alonso and demanding its price, will the unwanted bride be the one who saves the Valois ship from sinking? Or will she be the first one to jump off that sinking ship? *** Updates every Monday! +1 bonus chapter for 300 Power Stones +1 bonus chapter for 50 Golden Tickets +5 bonus chapters whenever the book receives a Magic Castle *Credit of the art goes to the owner*
"It's over" - Part 1
Natalie had heard it too many times: how one's entire life passes in front of their eyes before they die. But for her, it wasn't like that at all. More than images rolling in her mind, what she felt was a separation from her body as if it had always belonged to someone else.
She was too conscious of the doctors around her and could even tell that they were talking to each other throughout the operation. But more than anything else, what Natalie was most interested in was the kind light that never left her in the darkness. The one that glowed brighter in the operation room than how he did when he was smiling and walking beside Alonso on the way there. But her father seemed to watch from afar, maintaining a distance. Somehow she knew that rather than being here to take her to wherever she was supposed to go from here on forward, he was simply here to watch over her like a guardian angel.
Thank you for being right here next to me, dad.
