Enticing Series 1: Nightmare Chapter 1 Prologue

"You can't do that!"

I was about to enter the study room when I heard my mother screaming. It was as if she and Daddy were arguing about something so I slowly opened the door and peeked in on them, trying my best not to get noticed.

It is not something new to me, but I know that when they are fighting, it always has something to do with me and my siblings. So, I thought I should listen first.

Maybe they were talking about me. I might have done something that Daddy didn't like unconsciously.

"That is the only thing I can do to save her." My father's voice is calm. But I can also feel in his voice that his decision is already final because he always believed that what he does is always right.

So I was even more curious as to which of us, siblings, they were referring to.

"Marrying her off with that prince will only ruin her life forever," Mom insisted. Her voice was filled with fear and worry. "You know how cruel that bastard is. He will just take advantage of our daughter and they just wanted to use her because the people of this country trusted her more than the royal family."

"I know that," Dad said. "I am well aware of what they want from her. But what can we do? If we don't get her married to Prince Hector, her life will continue to be in danger. You know that we no longer have the ability to protect her."

Ah, they were talking about me.

Well, I am aware of the things that have been happening in my family even though I am often out and socializing with common people.

I am not a princess. I am just a simple daughter of a duke that has been actively doing what I want to help, not only the people in our domain but also anyone who really needs help.

That is what my late grandmother taught me.

Helping others is something that is not based on what title is attached to our name.

So I just followed what she started.

I helped a lot of people around the country. I have set up several foundations and most of my rich friends have donated to them voluntarily. We helped many students so they could continue their education without worrying about their tuition fees.

I also have built some public schools supported by my foundations and it was being used by children who lack money to study.

Above all, I also built several public hospitals using the money that my grandmother bequeathed to me.

I focused on the education and health sector for the goal of the foundation that I created because those are the things that our government neglects the most.

I want nothing more than to help people. That is what is always in my mind. I don't need anything in return for all the things I did for other people.

It is not even my money. I was just continuing what my grandmother wanted.

So I didn't really expect that what I was doing would become a big issue, causing my life to always be in danger.

I have received a lot of death threats. And our previous close relationship with the royal family that rules all of Hexoria Kingdom has also gradually cooled because the citizens are looking for me more than them.

And because of that, I stopped going out more often in public but the citizens were not happy with it because they thought that the superiors of our government were preventing me from appearing before them as giving way to the members of the royal family.

Well, part of that is actually true.

Several palace ministers also talked to me and forced me to stop everything that I was doing. They wanted to get rid of me in the public's eye. They also wanted me to transfer all of my foundations to the royal family.

But of course, I didn't agree with that.

Not that I really care about the fame but I know that the ministers just wanted to take my foundation for granted. They will just use it to gain money.

How would I know? Because if the palace really wanted my foundation, the king would immediately give a decree about it.

But I haven't received anything from the king itself. It was all the palace ministers who kept bugging me.

So, I told them that the only compromise I could give them was to reduce my exposure to people.

Before, I was always socializing in public almost every day. I reduced it to twice a month as promised to the ministers.

And I only work at home to take care of the paperwork needed by the foundations and hospitals that I manage myself to avoid getting seen in public.

I already started this so I can't just stop what I am doing. I promise my grandmother and I don't want the people I am helping to feel sorry because I am hurting the pride of the ministers of our country.

And it is not like I am trying to outshine the royal family. I also don't have the intention of harming our government and making them look like they are not doing anything for our country.

As a matter of fact, the Azarias, the clan that leads the Hexoria Kingdom, have been doing everything they can to take care of the people they serve. They always make ways to ensure every aspect of the needs of every citizen. They are great leaders of our country.

But people do not really appreciate all their hard work because they rarely appear in public. So people couldn't feel their presence.

And now that my father is thinking things like this, I guess, the people around the royal family, who were actually making this issue a big deal were still not happy with what is going on.

They consider a simple Asper Reign Dahlia a big threat to the leadership of the Azaria Clan. They think that I am the reason why the people of Hexoria were not looking at them. They think that I am only ruining the image of the royal family.

"No!" Mom still strongly objected to my father's idea. "She was just trying to help other people. She doesn't like fame, she just has the capability to help others. And it is not her fault if people felt her presence more than the royal family."

And their argument inside the room continued because neither of them doesn't want to give way to their decision.

"So?"

I was slightly startled when I heard my brother's voice from behind me but I immediately recovered and turned to him.

His eyebrows were raised while looking at me and placing both of his hands on his waist. "It turns out you brought a bigger problem here now, Asper."

I sighed and grabbed his hand as I pulled him away from the study room.

I don't want our parents to know that I heard them arguing because Daddy will definitely force me to agree to the solution he was thinking of so that the threat to my life will disappear forever.

I took him to the garden and he hasn't changed the way he looks at me when I face him. There are still traces of questions and it seems he has no intention of letting me go until I come up with a way to stop the problem we are facing now.

"Look, sis," he said. "You are the only one who can solve this and you know it, right?"

I know. I know that I am the only one who can end this problem because I am the one who brought it to my family.

That is why even though I don't want to, it looks like I don't really have any choice.

For the betterment of everyone. For the convenience of the palace. And to make my family's life more peaceful.

Ellie Wynters

She hides behind ugly suits and fake names. He's done trusting women. When they meet in a masked sex club, neither realizes they've been fighting each other across boardroom tables for eighteen months. At Taylor Industries, she's Joy Smith-the frumpy CFO who drowns her curves in shapeless polyester and wearing a wig. At home, she's the forgotten wife of a cheating lawyer who hasn't touched her in so long she's starting to wonder if she's broken. When she finds hot pink lace panties stuffed in her couch cushions...definitely not hers, it's not heartbreak she feels. It's freedom. Grayson Taylor doesn't do relationships anymore. Not after walking in on his actress fiancée with another woman. Now he channels everything into hostile takeovers and board meetings, especially the ones where his overcautious CFO fights him on every goddamn acquisition. Joy Smith is brilliant, infuriating, and funny when he pushes all her buttons. But Honey is tired of being invisible. Tired of never having felt real pleasure. So, when her best friend gives her the details of The Velvet Room-Manhattan's most exclusive masked club-she promises herself just one night. One night to find out if her husband's right, if she really is frigid, or if she's just never been touched by the right hands. She doesn't expect the masked stranger who claims her the second she walks in. Doesn't expect the chemistry that ignites between them, the way he makes her body sing, or the orgasms that leave her shaking. Doesn't expect him to hand her an email address with one command: "Only me. No one else touches you."

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."

I received a pornographic video. "Do you like this?" The man speaking in the video is my husband, Mark, whom I haven't seen for several months. He is naked, his shirt and pants scattered on the ground, thrusting forcefully on a woman whose face I can't see, her plump and round breasts bouncing vigorously. I can clearly hear the slapping sounds in the video, mixed with lustful moans and grunts. "Yes, yes, fuck me hard, baby," the woman screams ecstatically in response. "You naughty girl!" Mark stands up and flips her over, slapping her buttocks as he speaks. "Stick your ass up!" The woman giggles, turns around, sways her buttocks, and kneels on the bed. I feel like someone has poured a bucket of ice water on my head. It's bad enough that my husband is having an affair, but what's worse is that the other woman is my own sister, Bella. ************************************************************************************************************************ "I want to get a divorce, Mark," I repeated myself in case he didn't hear me the first time-even though I knew he'd heard me clearly. He stared at me with a frown before answering coldly, "It's not up to you! I'm very busy, don't waste my time with such boring topics, or try to attract my attention!" The last thing I was going to do was argue or bicker with him. "I will have the lawyer send you the divorce agreement," was all I said, as calmly as I could muster. He didn't even say another word after that and just went through the door he'd been standing in front of, slamming it harshly behind him. My eyes lingered on the knob of the door a bit absentmindedly before I pulled the wedding ring off my finger and placed it on the table. I grabbed my suitcase, which I'd already had my things packed in and headed out of the house.

I woke up in a blindingly white hotel penthouse with a throbbing headache and the taste of betrayal in my mouth. The last thing I remembered was my stepsister, Cathie, handing me a flute of champagne at the charity gala with a smile that didn't reach her eyes. Now, a tall, dangerously handsome man walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his hips. On the nightstand sat a stack of hundred-dollar bills. My stepmother had finally done it—she drugged me and staged a scandal with a hired escort to destroy my reputation and my future. "Aisha! Is it true you spent the night with a gigolo?" The shouts of a dozen reporters echoed through the heavy oak door as camera flashes exploded through the peephole. My phone lit up with messages showing my bank accounts were already frozen. My father was invoking the 'morality clause' in my mother’s trust fund, and my fiancé had already released a statement dumping me to marry my stepsister instead. I was trapped, penniless, and being hunted by the press for a scandal I hadn't even participated in. My own family had sold me out for a payday, and the man standing in front of me was the only witness who could prove I was innocent—or finish me off for good. I didn't have time to cry. According to the fine print of the trust, I had thirty days to prove my "rehabilitation" through a legal marriage or I would lose everything. I tracked the man down to a coffee shop the next morning, watching him take a thick envelope of cash from a wealthy older woman. I sat across from him and slid a napkin with a $50,000 figure written on it. "I need a husband. Legal, paper-signed, and convincing." He looked at the number, then at me, a slow, crooked smile spreading across his face. I thought I was hiring a desperate gigolo to save my inheritance. I had no idea I was actually proposing to Dominic Fields, the reclusive billionaire shark who was currently planning a hostile takeover of my father’s entire empire.
