Arrogant billionaire's enigmatic wife

I am not the man of her dreams yet she keeps falling for me slowly every day! ************* With a sweet, normal life and a bright career, I couldn't ask for anything else than crossing paths with a stranger from the past. Little did I know that when he would arrive, he wouldn't come alone but with his dark secrets that would tear through my soul and a life of whirlwind that would turn my world upside down. And with the serial killer on the loose, I would need to protect not only him, but also my biggest enemy- his father! I am Elena Bell, and this is my story of friendship, betrayals, revenge and LOVE! ************* EXCERPT:- I sucked a long breath as my eyes widened. The fake pretentious smile broke as I stared at him as if he had grown two heads over his shoulders. Devon turned to face me again, catching my eyes. With a smile playing on his lips, he continued, "And now that I think about it, I certainly am whipped by your charms, Elena! I am not great with words, and no matter how much I prepared, no words can contain my feelings as they should. So here I am asking you directly without beating around the bush." I watched horrified, as he went down on one knee. People gasped audibly in shock, must be mirroring my expressions. He finally pulled out his hand from his pants pocket to reveal a red velvet box. 'This is not happening! This is not happening!', my chants didn't change anything at all. He pressed the small button with his thumb and its lid opened to show a diamond-studded ring inside. My head turned heavy, and I thought I would collapse right then and there if he continued with that drama for another minute. Clearly, he was not done yet. *********** Instagram: author_rutujap Discord: https://discord.gg/wpyvsh42 ****** The cover is mine.

A Heartless Monster

ELENA

"Say something damn it! Your silence is killing the last ounce of mercy I have left with me." He shouted in my face.

I was too stunned to react. As I watched him, I questioned who was this man.

He was not the Devon I knew. And he was definitely not the French guy to whom I have managed to lose my heart.

Then who was he?

Was he the man that Mason was warning me about? Yes, he was definitely the man Mason described to me. How could he be so brutal with his own cousin, his own family?

And if he was like that with his family, then did I stand any chance of mercy from him? Could I trust him the way I did?

He had broken my trust more than once, and today when he glared at me murderously, I didn't think I could give him another chance.

He had no right to treat me like that. He was nobody to me!

His grip on my throat tightened, and I choked. My face turned red, and my eyes bulged out of their sockets. But he was merciless. He didn't care about my pain.

That was enough!
