Our Accidental Forever

I never expected my life to change so drastically. One moment, I was a woman with dreams, deeply in love with a man I thought I’d spend my life with. The next, I was betrayed and heartbroken, walking in on him cheating without a hint of remorse. That night, overwhelmed with pain and too much alcohol, I made a reckless decision, a one-night stand with a stranger who, to my shock, turned out to be my new boss. Arec, the vice president of Denco Groups, was desperate. To secure his future as CEO, he needed a wife, and in a twist of fate, he offered me a contract marriage. It sounded absurd, but his desperation mirrored my own need to escape the wreckage of my life. It was supposed to be simple: no emotions, no strings attached. A business arrangement, nothing more. I thought I could handle it, that I could keep my heart out of it. I was wrong. What started as a deal quickly spiraled into something far more complicated. As our fake marriage blurred into real feelings, the world around us began to close in. Disapproving family, old enemies, buried secrets, scheming rivals, and even an attempt on my life threatened to tear us apart. This is my story, a journey of heartbreak, unexpected love, and a fight to protect what we built together. In a world filled with lies and deceit, can a marriage born out of necessity become something real? --- Warning: This book contains mature themes. Join my Discord server: https://discord.gg/NJJKETf4

What was that...

Kate's warning clung to me like a stubborn shadow as I made my way back to Arec's penthouse. Even after I'd left her hospital room, her words echoed in my mind, replaying over and over with that same intensity she'd used to say them.

"Just… don't trust Joanne too quickly, okay?" Kate's voice had been uncharacteristically sharp, the edge of worry unmistakable. "I know she seems friendly now, but people like her don't change overnight."

It wasn't that I hadn't considered it myself. Joanne's kindness, her sudden willingness to help me plan the wedding, it was unexpected, maybe even a little too perfect. And yet, I wanted so badly to believe her, to think that maybe she'd changed, that this truce she'd extended was genuine.
