But then, when the house suddenly becomes cold for both couple to bear because of their own cheesiness, they can't help falling in love. **** Being called back from the states for an arranged marriage by her father, Angel returned grudgingly to Los Angeles to fulfill her family's wish and keep the family business running. Although if left to her, she wouldn't have planned settling down until her thirtieth birthday as she saw marriage as a barrier to her ladder of success. Everything about her gets Liam pissed off, her attitude sucks, her cold demeanor even the very fact that she's such a freaky sassy girl. So he came up with two rules; One: Never fall in love with me and, Two: Do not pokenose. But what happens when a gust of wind throws them off course? Will their eyes open crystal clear to see the parachute they need?

Chapter 1One

I stood in the middle of the hotel room in nothing but a sheer robe I had gotten earlier all because of this evening.

My stomach was a pit of nerves as I waited for the guest or more specifically my buyer to arrive. It's been over an hour but he was running late. I hope he didn't decide I wasn't worth the hassle.

I was so scared of what I was about to do and have felt the need to get dressed and run out of this room at least ten times since I arrived but the image of mom on her hospital bed unconscious had me retracting my steps.

"You can do this Evelyn, it's just sex. Mom needs you more than ever" Except it wasn't just sex. I was going to have sex with a stranger for money. I was selling myself.

If mom wasn't so sick, I wouldn't have resulted in selling my body to a stranger to get the money to pay for her hospital bills but there wasn't any other option that would get me the money the doctor had requested in less than a week.

I shook my head and ran my hands through my hair to clear my thoughts before I started pacing the room again. I couldn't afford to start thinking about what I've done now. It's already late to go back now and going back wasn't even an option.

Just as I sat down on the bed, the door opened and the last person I ever expected to be here walked through the door. If he was surprised, Liam didn't show it.

"Liam? What are you doing here?" I asked in shock as I stood from the bed, finding it hard to believe that my best friend's boyfriend was about to sleep with me for money

"I assume you're petals then?" My username falling from his lips was enough to confirm that he was indeed the person I was expecting

Nora was my best friend and Liam was supposed to be her boyfriend and they've been dating for a long time now. Why would he pay to have sex with someone else when he had a girlfriend.

The realization of the situation I was in had me stumbling to the bathroom and shutting the door behind me.

Luckily, my phone was with me so I quickly scrolled through my contact list to find Nora's number so I could give her a call. I couldn't betray my best friend like this. I had to let her know before Liam told her.

The phone rang for a bit before she picked up. I was suddenly sweating and the bathroom became hotter as I thought of what I was about to tell her

"Hello, is everything okay with you? I'm a little bit busy at the moment" Nora answered as soon as she picked up the call. I could tell she was really busy by the loud noises in the background

"Can you move somewhere quiet? There's something I really need to tell you" I pleaded.

"Are you sure everything is okay? You don't sound okay" I heard her move to somewhere quieter because the noise suddenly faded after I heard a door locked

"I'm so sorry Nora. You know I would never betray you right? I didn't mean for this to happen I swear" I was almost on the verge of tears

"Woah, calm down and tell me what's wrong. I don't even know what you're talking about"

"Remember the plan to sell my body for money? Someone I wasn't expecting came to the hotel instead" I cried out.

"Who?"

"Liam. I swear I haven't done anything. I swear I'm in the bathroom right now. I didn't know he would be the one else I wouldn't have come, you have to believe me"

"My Liam?" My heart rate picked up because I didn't even know how she would react to this and I won't blame her if she didn't believe me.

I was expecting her to yell at me or even threaten to come down to where we were but instead she began laughing

"Nora? Why are you laughing? It's not a joke" This reaction scared me more. Who else would laugh when told their partner is about to cheat on them with their best friend

"I know"

"You know it's not a joke? So why are you laughing then?"

"Not that silly, I know Liam is the one you were going to be sleeping with after all it was my plan from the beginning" my eyes almost fell out of their socket in shock

"What are you saying?" I whispered still unable to process what she just said

"I planned everything myself. You needed money and I needed someone to keep Jace company since I wouldn't have been able to make it. I'm so busy at work and it's better you're the one than some strange girl" There was glee in her voice as she spoke as if she was truly satisfied and happy with her plan

"But he's your boyfriend? Why would you arrange such a thing? You shouldn't do that to someone Nora" It was like Nora was someone else. The person I knew wasn't capable of hurting someone like this

"You don't have to worry about anything. Jace and I have been dating for over five years now so we understand each other very well. People tell us we act like a married couple because of how tuned we are to each other. I've been neglecting him for a long time now because of work and I want him to be happy if I'm not around"

"But…"

"No buts, he'll give you the money you want and I'll get what I want or don't you need the money for your mom anymore? I've told you I'm happy and don't mind so go on."

I was speechless and in shock. I was looking at my phone trying to understand what the fuck was happening?

"What are you doing here?" Liam voice startled me and I turned to see him leaning against the bathroom door with a scowl on his face

Congratulations to the host, and you've received [1 Million RMB in cash!] Xuexia, who is currently in need of great money, was in disbelief as she looked at the words one million and laughed.

One Wild Night

Lucinda Perry, a social recluse and a workaholic, makes a pledge to herself to go all wild on her twenty-fifth birthday and even score a one night stand if she gets her long deserved promotion at work. Few days to her twenty-fifth birthday, she gets promoted to not just a higher position but to the head office in a different city. Having to spend her birthday night in a new city, she goes to the club where she meets a very handsome stranger, Thomas Hank, who offers to be her one night stand after catching a glimpse of her dare-to-do list, which included having a one night stand. Thomas Hank, after having been used by several ladies in the past, is bent on getting the lady of his dreams who would love him for himself and not his wealth. So when he meets the cute and naive Lucinda Perry at the club, he decides to keep his true identity from her and find out if she was worth keeping. ***Excerpt*** What is more entertaining than a crazy side character? Say hello to Sonia and Bryan. Sonia's heart stopped beating for a second, and then different thoughts started flying right through her head at that same time. Bryan Hank? Her celebrity crush was kneeling right in front of her and asking her to be his wife? Was he mistaking her for someone? Was it possible this was a skit, or maybe this was like one of those celebrity pranks, and there were cameras around, waiting to capture her make a fool of herself? Or perhaps she was dreaming? Sonia wondered as she looked around them, but all she saw were curious onlookers. "Please! Be my wife and make me the happiest man on Earth," He said in a very loud voice that caught the attention of everyone. Her editor who she had been waiting on for over an hour because he was trying to sign a deal with a movie producer who was interested in one of her stories, showed up at that moment, "Sonia, you know Bryan Hank?" Her editor asked in genuine surprise as he watched the scene before him. It seemed like an hour had passed since Bryan went on his knees, but it had only been a minute. Bryan knew no lady would be crazy enough to accept such a crazy proposal, and even if any were, paying her off and calling off the whole thing would be easy since all he wanted was the scandal that could come from this. The headlines were either going to be about his rejected Marriage proposal or his supposed engagement, which would be enough to let Sophia off the hook. "Yes!" Sonia said as she bobbed her head excitedly and extended her finger for him to wear her the ring. "Yes?" Bryan asked in confusion when he heard her response. "Yes! I will be your wife and make you the happiest man in the world!" Sonia said with a giggle and wiggled her fingers until Bryan slid the ring down her finger. Surprisingly the ring was her exact size, and it sat on her finger like it was made just for her. The sound of applause erupted all around them as Sonia stood up with a big smile on her face and embraced Bryan before kissing him right on the lips. Bryan was slightly taken aback by her boldness but quickly recovered since this was his game, and he had to play along. He was the one who had approached her first, after all. So when she tried to break the kiss, he held her chin and slowly nibbled on her lower lip before parting her lips with his tongue and sucked on it in a teasing manner, eliciting a moan from Sonia. Sonia felt light-headed. This was too good to be true. It just had to be a dream. How else could she explain that one moment she was seated at the lobby of a hotel waiting for her editor, and the next she was engaged to her celebrity crush and was kissing him right here in the open?
