Camilla’s POV

His words wrapped around me like a dark promise.

Let me make you forget.

I answered him with another kiss, desperate and unfiltered, savoring the way his mouth claimed mine. My fingers dug into his shoulders as his hand roamed down my side, gripping my hip through the bunched satin.

Heat pooled low in my belly, spreading like wildfire.

I should stop.

The thought flickered through my mind. I wasn’t the type of woman who threw her at a stranger in her yacht suite while her engag

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER ELEVEN: Why is he here?

    Camila’s POVVale Corporation’s headquarters was exactly what I had expected and somehow still managed to be more impressive in person.I adjusted the strap of my portfolio bag on my shoulder and took a deep breath as I stepped into the waiting area with the other candidates.You’ve got this, Camila. This is your fresh start.“Good morning, everyone."A tall, distinguished man in a perfectly tailored suit stood before us. "I'm Richard Morrison, executive assistant to Mr. Vale. Welcome to Vale Corporation. He smiled politely.“Congratulations on making it to the final stage. Out of more than two hundred applicants, only eight of you remain.”A ripple of quiet pride moved through the room.“You’ve already completed the initial assessments. Today’s interview will focus on your experience, design philosophy, and problem-solving abilities. I know interviews can be stressful, but relax. Just be yourselves.”Someone beside me whispered, “Easy for him to say.”I had to bite my lip to stop m

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER TEN: I never allow distractions to interfere with business.

    Aaron’s POVThe boardroom was suffocatingly quiet except for my secretary Richard’s voice, droning as he went through the acquisition numbers. Twelve board members sat around the long obsidian table, all of them watching me like I was a bomb that might go off at any second.Which, today, didn’t feel entirely inaccurate.“…the residents are refusing every offer, sir,” Richard continued, adjusting his glasses. “We’ve increased the compensation package by forty-two percent. We’ve offered relocation assistance, new housing units, even educational funds for their children. They still won’t budge. Some of them have lived on that land for three generations. They’re not interested in the money. They’re organizing a protest for next week.”I should have been paying attention. This was a 300 million dollar development—one of the largest mixed-use luxury projects Vale Corporation had ever pursued. The land was perfect. Prime location. But right now, all of it felt insignificant.My mind was some

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER NINE: Vale Corporation.

    Camila’s POV The taxi pulled up outside Claire’s downtown apartment building just as the sun began to dip lower in the sky. I paid the driver with the little cash I had in my bag and stepped out, clutching the strap like a lifeline. My legs felt heavy as I rode the elevator up to the fifth floor. Before I could even knock, the door flew open. Claire stood there in her oversized pajama pants and a faded band t-shirt, her dark curls piled into a messy bun on top of her head. “Oh my God…” she launched herself at me, wrapping me in a tight, fierce hug. I melted into her embrace, the first real comfort I’d felt all day. She pulled back, holding me at arm’s length, her bright hazel eyes scanning my face with deep concern. “Jesus, you look like you’ve been through hell,” she said, tugging me inside and locking the door. “Have you even eaten today?” “I had coffee this morning.” Claire narrowed her eyes. “That is not food.” “I’m not really hungry.” “You still need to ea

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER EIGHT: I'm done.

    Camila’s POVI stood frozen in the doorway, my father’s words hanging heavy in the air like a death sentence.“If you walk out of that door… we are done.”My heart hammered violently against my ribs. For a split second, the old Camila hesitated. But that girl was gone. She had died last night on the yacht.I walked out without saying a single word.“Camila!” My mother’s voice cracked into loud, theatrical sobs behind me. “Camila, come back here! Don’t you dare walk away from this family!”Footsteps hurried after me.“Cammy! Cammy, wait!” Vivian’s voice was close, breathless. “Please, let’s just talk about this.”I didn’t stop. I didn’t even look back. My heels clicked sharply against the floor as I pushed through the front doors and stepped outside.The morning air hit my face, but it did nothing to loosen the knot in my chest.“Camila!”Alex’s voice stopped me cold.He was standing right at the gate, looking every bit the polished heir in a crisp button-down shirt, holding a massiv

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER SEVEN: I will never marry Alex.

    Camila's POVThe morning sun filtered softly through the curtains of the yacht suite, warm and golden, pulling me from the deepest sleep I'd had in months.I reached across the bed, expecting to find warm skin and a solid chest. Instead, my hand met cool, empty sheets.He was gone.I sat up quickly, clutching the silk sheet to my bare chest. The suite was silent except for the gentle hum of the yacht’s engines and the distant sound of water lapping against the hull. No note. No message. Just the faint scent of his cologne still lingering on the pillow beside me.He left without saying anything.A sharp pang twisted in my chest, but I pushed it down. What did I expect? I had thrown myself at a complete stranger after the most humiliating night of my life. Of course he left. Still… the way he had touched me, the look in his eyes—it had felt like more than just a one-night distraction.I closed my eyes and let the memories flood in.The way his dark eyes had burned as he stripped my d

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER SIX: Tell me if you want me to stop.

    Aaron’s POVGod, she’s going to ruin me.Camila’s hand was still stroking me through my pants, slow and curious. Her palm felt like heaven and torture at the same time. I had been fighting for control since the moment she kissed me on the upper deck, but her boldness tonight was testing every ounce of control I possessed. I wasn’t a man who lost himself in fleeting nights, no matter how beautiful the woman. Yet here I was, rock-hard and aching in a way I hadn’t felt in years, my cock throbbing with a hunger that bordered on dangerous.I caught her wrists, pinning them above her head against the bed. Leaning in close, I let my breath ghost along her neck, then her ear. She gasped, her whole body tensing.“You’re so responsive,” I murmured, my voice low and rough. “Are you always this sensitive, or is it just me tonight?”She bit her lip, cheeks flushing deeper. “I… I don’t know. I’ve never—” She cut herself off, shaking her head as if embarrassed by the admission.That answer pleased

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER FOUR: Let me make you forget.

    Aaron’s POV“Tell me to leave,” I said, my voice lower and rougher than I intended.Camila’s breath hitched. Her dark eyes were wide, still glistening with the tears she’d shed on the upper deck, but something else had overtaken the pain. She didn’t push me away. Instead, her fingers curled tighter

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER THREE: Who are you?

    Camilla’s POV The cameras went crazy. Light exploded across the deck like lightning strikes, dozens of shutters clicking in rapid succession. Reporters shouted over each other, their voices blending into an incoherent roar. I stood frozen on the stage, the microphone still in my hand, my words h

  • Claimed By The Rival CEO   CHAPTER TWO: I’m calling off this engagement.

    Camilla’s pov I ran blindly through the narrow corridor, my dress tangling around my legs, the beautiful fabric now feeling like chains. My heels clicked sharply against the polished floor. Tears burned in my eyes, but I refused to let them fall. Not yet. Not here. “Camila! Wait!” Alex’s voice e
