The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Sixty
For one suspended second, nobody moved.The smoke curling beneath the backstage door looked almost delicate at first, a thin gray ribbon unfurling across the floor as though someone had released it on purpose for dramatic effect. In a theater like Euphoria, where angels descended through clouds and demons emerged from crimson fog, smoke belonged to the illusion. It belonged to stagecraft. It belonged to the fantasy we were selling to the wealthiest audience in Nevada.Then the smell reached us.Sharp.Bitter.Wrong.Beth's hand tightened around mine."Sienna."Her voice was barely more than a whisper, but the fear inside it cut straight through the music still swelling beyond the wings.A stagehand rushed past us with a headset pressed against one ear, his expression tense but not yet panicked. Another followed with a fire extinguisher, muttering something about an electrical panel near the dressing rooms, while two more crew members moved quickly toward the far corridor as though thi
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Fifty-Nine
The first time I stepped onto the stage at Euphoria, I felt as though I had walked directly into the center of every dream I had ever been too afraid to say out loud.The theater was unlike anything I had ever seen.Not merely beautiful.Not merely expensive.Sacred.The walls curved around the audience in sweeping layers of velvet, gold, and deep rose, creating the illusion that the entire room had been carved from some impossible jewel buried beneath the Nevada desert. Thousands of tiny lights shimmered overhead like captured stars, while the enormous curtain in front of me glowed faintly beneath the stage lamps, waiting to rise on the first performance ever held inside Luca Moretti's impossible new city.Euphoria.Even the name felt dangerous.A promise.A temptation.A warning.Backstage, the dancers moved around one another in practiced silence, their costumes whispering softly as stagehands checked harnesses, adjusted props, and murmured into headsets. Beth stood beside me dress
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Fifty-Eight
The performance began the moment the elevator doors opened.Not on a stage.Not beneath spotlights.Not with music swelling in the background.It began with a hundred powerful people turning their attention toward me and seeing exactly what Luca wanted them to see.His future wife.The queen of New Zenith.The woman who inspired an entire city.And God help me, I played the role beautifully.Luca kept one hand at the small of my back as he guided me through Euphoria's grand opening gala, introducing me to governors, investors, celebrities, hotel executives, and business leaders whose names I recognized from newspapers and television interviews. Every single one of them congratulated us. Every single one of them admired the ring on my finger. Every single one of them treated me as though I had always belonged in rooms like these.Perhaps the most dangerous thing about Luca Moretti was that he made impossible dreams feel ordinary.Because this was everything I had wanted as a little gir
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Fifty-Seven
The diamond caught the light from a hundred crystal chandeliers and scattered it across the polished marble floor like fragments of starlight, and still I couldn't bring myself to move.Or breathe.Or think.The weight of the ring on my finger felt impossibly real.Luca stood before me with the patience of a man who had already learned that some moments could not be rushed, his dark eyes fixed entirely upon my face as he waited for an answer I wasn't certain I knew how to give.Around us, Euphoria pulsed softly with life.Staff moved through the grand halls making final preparations.Musicians tuned instruments somewhere beyond the ballroom doors.The first helicopters carrying investors and dignitaries would begin arriving within the hour.And I stood inside a temple built in my image, wearing an engagement ring from the most powerful man in Nevada.The absurdity of my life had officially surpassed anything I could have imagined.My voice emerged as little more than a whisper."You'r
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Fifty-Six
The weeks that followed passed with the strange, dreamlike quality of a life moving too quickly to fully understand.One moment I was sneaking through Luca's office and stealing evidence that could potentially destroy everything between us, and the next I was standing in front of a mirror while a team of stylists prepared me for the grand opening gala of an entirely new city.New Zenith existed now.Not on blueprints.Not in presentations.Not as one of Luca's impossible promises.It stood in the Nevada desert in glass and steel and gold.And somehow, against every ounce of common sense I possessed, I was meant to stand beside him as its future queen.The thought still felt ridiculous.More ridiculous, however, was everything I had learned about Don D'Caputo.I had spent the past month digging.Carefully.Quietly.Never enough to attract attention, but enough to satisfy the growing suspicion that had settled into the back of my mind ever since I discovered the footage in Luca's office
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Fifty-Five
I stood perfectly still.The office around me suddenly felt enormous.Luca had walked out as though he had merely finished an ordinary business conversation, leaving behind a confession of love, a wedding date, the promise of freedom, and enough unanswered questions to keep me awake for the rest of my life.And now I was alone.Completely alone.The realization settled over me slowly.No Brian.No assistants.No security detail stationed outside the door.Just me and the private sanctuary of the most powerful man in Las Vegas.My pulse quickened.If proof existed...If there was anything that connected Luca Moretti to Don D'Caputo's death...This might be my only opportunity to find it.I moved carefully.The massive desk occupied the center of the room, carved from dark wood that looked expensive enough to purchase a small house, yet somehow free of clutter despite the empire that Luca managed from behind it. Everything had its place. Every pen sat perfectly aligned. Every document r
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Twenty-Five
I barely slept.Every time I closed my eyes, I saw the security footage playing across the screen.Dom entering the Velvet Suite.Luca leaving alone.Myself standing in the hallway, unknowingly stepping into a secret that had followed me for months.The memory r
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Twenty-Three
By the time I left Luca's office, my thoughts felt hopelessly tangled.The conversation had answered almost nothing.Monica was still dead.I still didn't know what to believe.And somehow, despite all of that, I couldn't stop thinking about the way Luca had looked at me before I walked out the doo
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Twenty
The next morning arrived far earlier than I would have liked.I had barely slept.Every time I closed my eyes, I found myself back in the car with Luca.The memory had become increasingly annoying somewhere around three o'clock in the morning.His voice.His hand resting on my knee.The way he had
The Billionaire's Showgirl Chapter Nineteen
The silence that followed Monica's accusation felt suffocating.Hundreds of eyes shifted between us as whispers began spreading through the ballroom. Investors, celebrities, politicians, and executives exchanged curious glances. A moment ago, they had been applauding Luca's vision for Zenith Spring
