It's always been you Chapter 1 1

Damian

My life hasn't been as easy as it may seem from outside. People thought I had everything in my life which in one way or the other true but it wasn't how they thought it was. I was indeed the heir of the Alessandro group but my own company, DA was the result of my hard work, sweat and blood. I have everything I want but the only thing I resent with my whole heart: Women.

I am not gay. I have particular interests in women that are limited to the bedroom but that's all that is to it. Each one of them is a gold digger. All they want is my hard dick and the hard cash that comes with me. So I maintain a safe distance from them.

I wasn't always like this. I was capable of warmth and love once. But just one night was enough to turn my Whole world upside down. It's been 7 years. The first year was difficult for me but then it got easier. But as a result of it I have walls high up around the place that once contained my warm beating heart.

"Addy, Your 5'o clock is here and then you free for your dinner with your dad." My Secretary Jillian pulled me out of my thoughts.

"Mr Williams is here with the contract papers between DA and Sarrson Corp. I have booked the usual table for you and your dad at the plaza." She smiled at me.

Jillian was an exception. She was in her mid 20's and I have known her since the time she started as an intern here. A alcoholic father and a younger sister to look after, she is a younger sister to me.

" You and Jules can join us as well. You know my dad love you both." I smiled back at her.

"I know Addy but Jules needs help with her paper for her upcoming examination."

I walk out of my tall office building and breathe in the fresh evening air. Even though New York can be stuffy and chaotic, this helps me calm my head. Miles, my driver and security guy but above all that my most trusted confidant parked my car in-front of me.

"I think you should settle down." Dad took a bite of his stake and looked up at me.

This wasn't anything new for me so I decided to let it go. " I will think about it Dad." The best way to avoid this conversation.

"You better think about it Son or else The Montgomery project is out of your hand and so is the position of CEO."

I could feel confusion clouding my mind. "What do you mean ?"

"I mean I had a chat with Mr Christian Montgomery today at Lunch. He is my friend from college if you remember. He mentioned something about you not being too serious when it comes to your life and that is holding him back from considering you as the best candidate for the the project."

I glared at him and rubbed my temple. "I have put my life in DA and he thinks I am not serious just because I am not married." I drank the remaining whiskey from my glass.

"Calm down, Son. Chris is a man of old thinking and for him a man without a wife isn't too serious. If you don't get the Montgomery project the board will be disappointed. They already consider you a playboy billionaire in the media's words and that's what bothering Chris as well."

I can feel a headache building up. Obviously the media exaggerated every fucking thing. But I always keep my business and my personal life separate. How did it get so messed up all of a sudden?

I covered my face with my palm and took a deep breath. "What is the solution then? I find a wife and settle down? Will that show every fucking person how fucking serious I am? Which my fucking hard work couldn't show ?"

I look at my father anger boiling inside me like molten lava.

All these years of hard work and working my ass of for DA was all useless. My Dream project was inches away for me and an absolutely unnecessary clause was the hurdle separating me from it.

My Father took a sip from his glass of wine. He gave me a soft smile. "Leave it to me Son."

Rain hammered against the asphalt as my sedan spun violently into the guardrail on the I-95. Blood trickled down my temple, stinging my eyes, while the rhythmic slap of the windshield wipers mocked my panic. Trembling, I dialed my husband, Clive. His executive assistant answered instead, his voice professional and utterly cold. "Mr. Wilson says to stop the theatrics. He said, and I quote, 'Hang up. Tell her I don’t have time for her emotional blackmail tonight.'" The line went dead while I was still trapped in the wreckage. At the hospital, I watched the news footage of Clive wrapping his jacket around his "fragile" ex-girlfriend, Angelena, shielding her from the storm I was currently bleeding in. When I returned to our penthouse, I found a prenatal ultrasound in his suit pocket, dated the day he claimed to be on a business trip. Instead of an apology, Clive met me with a sneer. He told me I was nothing but an "expensive decoration" his father bought to make him look stable. He froze my bank accounts and cut off my cards, waiting for the hunger to drive me back to his feet. I stared at the man I had loved for four years, realizing he didn't just want a wife; he wanted a prop he could switch off. He thought he could starve me into submission while he played father to another woman's child. But Clive forgot one thing. Before I was his trophy wife, I was Starfall—the legendary voice actress who vanished at the height of her fame. "I'm not jealous, Clive. I'm done." I grabbed my old microphone and walked out. I’m not just leaving him; I’m taking the lead role in the biggest saga in Hollywood—the one Angelena is desperate for. This time, the "decoration" is going to burn his world down.

The heavy thud of the release stamp was the only goodbye I got from the warden after five years in federal prison. I stepped out into the blinding sun, expecting the same flash of paparazzi bulbs that had seen me dragged away in handcuffs, but there was only a single black limousine idling on the shoulder of the road. Inside sat my mother and sister, clutching champagne and looking at my frayed coat with pure disgust. They didn't offer a welcome home; instead, they tossed a thick legal document onto the table and told me I was dead to the city. "Gavin and I are getting engaged," my sister Mia sneered, flicking a credit card at me like I was a stray dog. "He doesn't need a convict ex-fiancée hanging around." Even after I saved their lives from an armed kidnapping attempt by ramming the attackers off the road, they rewarded me by leaving me stranded in the dirt. When I finally ran into Gavin, the man who had framed me, he pinned me against a wall and threatened to send me back to a cell if I ever dared to show my face at their wedding. They had stolen my biotech research, ruined my name, and let me rot for half a decade while they lived off my brilliance. They thought they had broken me, leaving me with nothing but an expired chapstick and a few old photos in a plastic bag. What they didn't know was that I had spent those five years becoming "Dr. X," a shadow consultant with five hundred million dollars in crypto and a secret that would bring the city to its knees. I wasn't just a victim anymore; I was a weapon, and I was pregnant with the heir they thought they had erased. I walked into the Melton estate and made an offer to the most powerful man in New York. "I'll save your grandfather's life," I told Horatio Melton, staring him down. "But the price is your last name. I'm taking back what's mine, and I'm starting with the man who thinks he's marrying my sister."

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
