HIS RIVAL'S OBSESSION
Life is not full of roses. Sometimes the roses you think you see are never really roses at all. They are thorns hidden between petals.
Sienna thought she found love with Dominic Castellano, the second most powerful billionaire in New York City. For three years, she agreed to be his secret girlfriend, believing his empty promises that one day he would make her public. But the universe had other plans. She became a laughing stock when he married a wealthy heiress, leaving her broken and humiliated.
Then Sebastian Ashford, Dominic's greatest rival, offered her a proposition:
"What if I told you that on the night your parents were murdered, I was there? Would you be my wife for one year and burn Dominic's world to the ground with everyone related to him?"
Sienna wanted revenge. She found the means to an end. With nothing left to lose, she agreed to destroy the man who had wasted her time, her years, and her heart.
But she should not have fallen in love with this devil of a man who came with a proposition filled with secrets she would never truly know.
As secrets unfold and truths emerge, Sienna discovers that the man she gradually fell in love with might actually be behind everything that happened to her.
In the end, she must decide if love is worthy of all the chaos, or if some situations demand a different choice entirely.

Chapter: CHAPTER 12: THE RISESienna's POVWe walked into the bustling building. As soon as they sensed his presence, heads were turning. Bowing. Eyes on us. Especially on me. Eyes wondering who was this new lady walking side by side with their boss. They didn't know yet. I was about to become their CEO.I saw the assistant coming toward us in a black corporate suit with two men in tow. She moved with the precision of someone who had been doing this for years. Everything about her screamed efficiency."Good morning, Mr. Sebastian," she greeted with a slight bow."The board is ready?" he asked, his voice suddenly serious. Not the warm, teasing voice I had recognized two minutes ago in the car. I wondered how many sides this man had. Warm in one minute. Cold and serious in a few seconds. Like flipping a switch."Yes, sir. They are waiting in the conference room," she replied.Her eyes flipped to me, and she bowed lightly."Hello, Mrs. Sienna," she greeted with a knowing smile.She already knows? I thought, my pulse

Chapter: CHAPTER 11: THE ANNOUNCEMENTSienna's POVThe day I was not expecting to arrive so quickly had come. I stood in front of the mirror, dressed in a powerful dress. It was a tailored navy blue suit with a crisp white silk blouse underneath. The jacket hugged my waist perfectly, showing off the curves I had hidden away for so long. The skirt fell just below the knee. Everything about it screamed confidence. Everything about it screamed power. This was a dress for someone becoming a CEO.I moved my hair to the other side, exposing my neck adorned with a necklace Sebastian had bought yesterday. He had called it one of the benefits of this marriage. I did not read any deeper meaning into it. What I had acquired in this agreement were benefits. Nothing more. Nothing less.Dominic and his cohorts had no idea what was about to happen today. I bet the news is going to be a shock to the whole world. The girl he had discarded. The girl he had thrown in a pool. The girl he had used and abused. That girl was about to become the

Chapter: CHAPTER 10: THE MEETING AND THE TRUTHSienna's POV"Honey, don't start in her presence," Mrs. Linda said, her voice carrying a warning."What? Sebastian is trying to prevent a simple greeting," his father replied, his tone sharp.Amidst the affection, there was still some hidden grudge within this family. I could feel it. The tension. The unspoken words. The anger simmering just below the surface."Dad?" Sophia yelled, frustration written all over her face.Victor raised his hands as he walked over to his seat beside his wife. I turned at Sebastian. He wasn't saying anything, and I wondered what the silence meant. What was he thinking? What was he protecting?"I'm sorry, sir, for the misunderstanding," I started to say."Can we get into what we came here for? I just came here to make you know my wife and not intimidate her," Sebastian suddenly said. His voice was cold and serious. There was a brief silence. I was getting very uncomfortable with the interaction. The way his father looked at me. The way his mother kept stud

Chapter: CHAPTER 9: THE DINNERSebastian's POVI was amused by where that boldness was coming from."And why do you want me to put you in that position?" I teased, leaning back slightly to study her reaction.She was serious. Dead serious."An idea just popped into my head," she started to explain.I chuckled, cutting her words short. She tilted her head, an eyebrow raised at my interruption."I know this request is out of nowhere, and I shouldn't be asking," she continued, her voice uncertain."Deal," I said simply.She froze and leaned back, surprise clearly written all over her face."That was quite fast. I mean, I was expecting you to disagree with me," she said."Do you want me to withdraw my answer back?" I asked, knowing full well what her response would be."No, no," she said quickly.There was a brief silence between us. I could see her mind working, trying to understand my quick acceptance. But she didn't need to understand. Not yet."These are things to do to make this marriage look real. And since you p

Chapter: CHAPTER 8: THE ELEVATION AND THE SECRETSDominic's POVI sat under the large umbrella in the picnic resort I had bought for our honeymoon. Katherine rested her head on my arm as we watched the lapping of the sea. The waves were calm. Everything was perfect. Everything was exactly as planned."Babe, you know sometimes looking at those waves reminded me of my childhood days," she said, her voice soft and dreamy."Really?" I asked, not really listening. My mind was elsewhere. On the empire I was building.She looked up, the hat making her face smaller, more delicate."Yes, you know, being an heiress to my royal family... You understand," she said."Of course I do, my love," I replied, kissing the top of her head.She rested back on my arm, sipping the fruit juice on the fancy table beside us. For a moment, I felt nothing but contempt for her. She was useful. She was beautiful. She was a means to an end. "I heard someone caused some trouble at the reception," she asked suddenly. I raised an eyebrow to her question, not expectin

Chapter: CHAPTER 7: THE INVESTIGATION AND THE MOMENTSebastian's POV"These are all the documents, sir," the private investigator said, placing the file on my table. I stared at it like something that would pounce on me if I stared at the devastating content inside it for too long.I couldn't bring myself to open it. Not yet. Not when I knew what it contained. Not when I knew what it would mean."I had to carefully access the server," the investigator continued. "Unfortunately, it was so exposed I think the person had forgotten it needed more tight security.""Or maybe they thought no one could think of that side," I completed, still not raising my head from the file."Yes, sir, that is true. The documents in the file are just receipts from Ashford Holdings. I was surprised it did not show who signed it off."I looked up at him then. His expression was careful. Measured. Like he was trying to soften the blow of what he was about to tell me."What do you mean? You said my father authorized the payment," I said, my voice steady even thoug

CAPTIVE SINS

In the end, love might be the most dangerous cage of all.

Chapter: CHAPTER 74: HER NAMEThe car rolled through the gates of the Federal Blue House and stopped.Dimitri stepped out and the morning air hit him immediately. The building rose ahead of him the same way it had the last time he stood in front of it. Official. Imposing. The kind of architecture designed to make people feel small before they even reached the door.He was not small.Alexei came around from the other side of the car and fell into step beside him."I am going in alone," Dimitri said without looking at him. "I want everyone positioned and alert. Nobody moves without my instruction.""Yes sir."He walked toward the entrance.Armed men were positioned at every visible point. Different corners, different angles, all of them in uniform and all of them watching the approach with the trained attention of people whose entire job was identifying threats before they became problems. Two of them stepped forward as he reached the main entrance, their bodies filling the space between him and the door."Sir." The

Chapter: CHAPTER 73: VIKTOR IS ALIVEDimitri stood in front of the mirror and tied his tie.His hands moved through the familiar motions automatically while his eyes stared at something that had nothing to do with his reflection. Something sitting behind his eyes that had been there since last night when he picked up his phone in the dark and read what was on the screen and went completely still under Natasha's sleeping weight against his chest.He pulled the tie until it sat straight."Prepare the men," he said into the phone. Alexei had been mid-sentence about the company hall villa repairs and stopped the moment Dimitri spoke. "We might need to move somewhere today. Have everyone on standby.""Yes sir.""And the driver. I will be down in a few minutes." He looked at his collar and straightened it. "I am meeting with Marcus Grey this morning.""Understood sir. Should I…"His phone buzzed against his ear. He pulled it back and checked the screen.Detective Lee."I will call you back," he said to Alexei and switched over

Chapter: CHAPTER 72: JUST GETTING STARTEDShe watched him stroke himself.Her throat went dry immediately. He held her eyes the entire time, his hand moving slowly, deliberately, like he had all the time in the world and was absolutely certain she was not going anywhere.Her pussy would not stop drooling at the sight.He smiled. That smirk that knew exactly what it was doing and had zero apology about it.She tried to sit up, impatience winning over everything else, and he pressed her back down with one flat hand on her chest. Effortless. Certain."Dimitri," she moaned."You are in such a haste," he said, his grin widening. His hand moved slower. Deliberately slower. He groaned at his own touch, his eyes still on hers.Then he said it."Suck me."Not a request. A command. Low and rough and direct.She was completely under his spell, driven by the heat building between her legs, driven by the sight of him standing there looking at her like that. She raised herself and positioned herself on her knees, her back arched, her hips

Chapter: CHAPTER 71: DISTRACTION"What do you mean it is about me," Natasha said.Her voice came out smaller than she intended. She was sitting on the edge of the bed now without remembering standing up and moving there, her free hand pressing flat against the duvet like she needed something solid under her palm."The file was always supposed to be accessed by you," Chloe said. "Not found by someone else. Not stolen. Accessed. By you specifically." A pause. "It has been existing for fifteen years. Dimitri believes he destroyed it. He burnt what he thought was the real file fifteen years ago. But he never burnt the actual one.""Why," Natasha said. "Why me. Why is it connected to me specifically.""Because of what it contains," Chloe said. "It has secrets in it. The kind that can bring Dimitri down completely. His operations, his history, things that go back further than his empire, things connected to the project and the people behind it." She paused. "The file was given a specific access condition. Only one person c

Chapter: CHAPTER 70: EVERGREEN"After a year you got adopted by Mr Viktor's family," Chloe said. Her voice had settled into something even and measured, the voice of someone who had decided to tell a story completely and was going to do it properly regardless of how it landed. "I was taken. Not adopted. Taken."Natasha sat up straighter on the bed."Do you remember the bus," Chloe continued. "The one that used to park in front of the orphanage. The Evergreen."Something clicked in Natasha's memory immediately. Sharp and clear the way old things sometimes surfaced when the right word unlocked them. The bus. Dark green with the name running along the side in clean white letters. It had come regularly. She could remember standing at the window watching it pull up, watching people get out with boxes and bags, watching the staff of the orphanage go out to meet them with grateful expressions."Yes," Natasha said slowly. "The Evergreen."And then something else surfaced alongside the memory. Something more recent. She til

Chapter: CHAPTER 69: CHLOE'S TRUTH"My cotton business," Xavier said. "The one you already know about. The one you investigated."Dimitri shifted in his seat. "I did not investigate anything.""Someone is lying," Xavier said pleasantly. "But that is okay. You do not have to admit that you were looking for me. I already know.""Oh come on," Dimitri said.He signaled to his driver and the engine came to life, pulling out into the Lindel morning. He looked out the window and said nothing for a moment because there was nothing to say that would not give Xavier more ammunition than he already had."Anyway," Xavier continued, the teasing dropping slightly into something more straightforward. "I need to go and attend to some things there. I will be back by the day after tomorrow. Two days maximum.""Alright then." Dimitri paused. "You booked a flight?""Of course I booked a flight. What do you think I was going to do, walk?""I was asking," Dimitri said."Yes I booked a flight. Early morning. Already sorted."Dimitri nodded e
