Pretty bad. Eve's not answering my calls. My parents tried to buy her off with a document that basically called her insane. The photos from the conference are all over social media. I told my wife to leave our home and now I'm sitting here realizing I might have made the biggest mistake of my life."

"Which part was the mistake?"

"All of it. Letting Sophia move in. Not believing Eve when she said something was wrong. Choosing to trust medical documents I never verified instead of trusting my wif

  • I AM BILLIONAIRE DAMON'S REPLACEMENT BRIDE    TWO LINES

    EVE'S POV The bathroom felt smaller than usual that afternoon, the walls closing in just a little too tight. I sat on the closed toilet lid, staring at the three pregnancy tests lined up on the marble counter like tiny judges waiting to drop their verdict. My hands trembled so badly I had to clasp them together in my lap, knuckles white, just to keep them still. The soft afternoon light filtered through the frosted window, casting hazy patterns on the tiles, but it did nothing to chase away the cold dread and wild, fragile hope twisting around in my chest. It had been months since we got Lily back. Months of slow healing, of turning our home into a fortress with all those extreme security protocols, of learning to breathe again while Sophia stayed a ghost somewhere out there and Alex fought like hell for bail from prison. Lily was eleven months old now... crawling into everything, pulling herself up on furniture with those chubby little hands, babbling “ma-ma” and “da-da” with such

  • I AM BILLIONAIRE DAMON'S REPLACEMENT BRIDE    ONE YEAR ALMOST

    EVE'S POV The penthouse nursery had changed so much in the past eleven months. The walls were now covered with soft pastel murals of city skylines and tiny stars that glowed gently at night. Lily’s crib had been replaced by a big-girl toddler bed with safety rails, though she still preferred crawling into our bed most nights. Toys were scattered across the floor... blocks, soft books, and a little stuffed bunny that had become her favorite. At eleven months old, Lily was a whirlwind of energy: crawling at lightning speed, pulling herself up on furniture, and babbling constant “da-da” and “ma-ma” that made both Damon and me melt every single time. I sat on the soft rug, watching her stack blocks with intense concentration, her chubby little hands working so hard. Her dark curls... a perfect mix of Damon’s and mine... bounced as she laughed at her own success when the tower stayed upright for three whole seconds before toppling. “You’re getting so big,” I whispered, my voice thick w

  • I AM BILLIONAIRE DAMON'S REPLACEMENT BRIDE    SMALL WINS, BIG CRACKS

    EVE'S POV The decision to return to my rented office wasn’t easy. Three days after we got Lily back, the penthouse still felt like the safest place in the world. Every corner had been reinforced with new security... biometric locks, constant camera feeds, armed guards rotating shifts like silent shadows. Lily slept in her crib with two monitors and a dedicated operator stationed just outside the nursery door. I hadn’t left her side for more than a few minutes since the rescue. The thought of stepping away, even for a few hours, made my chest tighten with familiar panic. But the project... my project...had been bleeding for too long. The sabotage from Sophia and Alex had gutted most of my progress. Permits stalled, contractors pulled out, funders vanished. If I didn’t fight for it now, it would die completely. And I refused to let them take that from me too. “I need to go in today,” I told Damon over breakfast. Lily was in her bouncer beside us, happily chewing on a teether. “Just

  • I AM BILLIONAIRE DAMON'S REPLACEMENT BRIDE    FINAL CHOICE

    Lily slept peacefully in her nursery, the soft glow of the nightlight casting gentle shadows across her crib. Eve sat beside me on the couch, her head resting on my shoulder, Lily’s baby monitor glowing on the coffee table. It had been three days since we got our daughter back, and the relief was still raw, fragile, like a wound that hadn’t fully closed. Sophia was still out there. The police update this morning had been grim... she had slipped through the net again, disappearing into the city with help from unknown accomplices. Alex remained in custody, but his lawyers were already pushing for deals, and his smuggled messages to Eve continued to arrive through hidden channels. The threats hadn’t stopped. The fear hadn’t left. But tonight, I couldn’t wait any longer. “I need to see her,” I said quietly, breaking the silence. “Catherine. One last time.” Eve lifted her head, searching my face. “Are you sure? After everything…” “I’m sure.” My voice was low, steady, but the weight b

  • I AM BILLIONAIRE DAMON'S REPLACEMENT BRIDE    FAVORITISM BITE

    EVE'S POV The new security protocols hummed constantly in the background... soft beeps from motion sensors, the low murmur of extra guards rotating shifts, reinforced doors that now required biometric scans. Lily slept peacefully in her crib, but I checked on her every few minutes, my body still wired from the trauma of her kidnapping. Damon worked from his home office, refusing to leave us even for a short meeting. His presence was a constant, protective shadow. The doorman buzzed. “Miss Eve, your parents are here, they say they want to see Lily and apologize.” I tensed immediately. Damon looked up from his laptop, jaw tight. “You don’t have to see them if you’re not ready.” “I need to,” I said quietly. “For closure. But stay with me.” My parents stepped off the elevator looking exhausted and guilty. My mother, carried a small gift bag with a stuffed toy and baby clothes. My father held a bouquet of flowers. They both had red, swollen eyes. “Eve,” my mother said, voice tremblin

  • I AM BILLIONAIRE DAMON'S REPLACEMENT BRIDE    TIGHTENING WALLS

    EVE'S POV The penthouse felt heavier than usual the morning after the rescue. Lily slept peacefully in her crib, her tiny chest rising and falling in the soft glow of the nightlight. I stood over her for a long time, just watching, afraid that if I looked away she might disappear again. The emotional reunion last night had been everything... tears, tight hugs, the three of us tangled together on the nursery floor as we whispered promises and thanks. But the fear hadn’t left. It sat in my chest like a stone. Damon came up behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist and resting his chin on my shoulder. “She’s safe,” he murmured, voice still rough from lack of sleep. “We got her back. She’s right here.” I leaned back into him, but my body stayed tense. “I know. But Sophia is still out there. And Alex…” The detective’s call came just after breakfast. Damon put it on speaker in the living room while I held Lily in my arms. “Mr. and Mrs. Sterling, we have an update on Sophia Thompson
