Ashley has always lived her life on the reins after she got married to her husband Andrew Morales who in other words was a manwhore. Despite being married to Ashley, he still goes around sleeping with different women. Ashley silently endured all these treatment because she was a single mother and the society doesn't smile at single mothers. But everything changed with the arrival of a new boss at her company who fell for her Instantly. When she handed her husband the divorce papers, he went on his knees begging her. But it was already too late. Or was it not?

Chapter 1 _

The main door to the house was widely opened shocking the lady who just appeared on the porch. It was a sunny afternoon and Ashley had just returned from work since her boss retired early for the day. She hadn't expected to see her door widely open.

"Keith!"

Recalling her five year old was home with his babysitter, the fear of the unknown crept in as she bursted into the building. She dropped her purse on a couch in the living room and began her search.

A noise from the kitchen got her attention. Her heart skipped a beat as she walked to the direction of the noise. Slow and steady steps until she got to the corridor, her eyes widened when she spotted her son trying to pull a hot pan off from the stove.

"Keith.."

The young boy was startled when he was suddenly scooped into his mother's arms. Ashley held her boy close to herself. She took a glance at the pan to see a broken egg in it. 'What in the world?'

"Mummy, you're back!!"

Ashley turned off the stove and led her son out of the kitchen already getting pissed off that the babysitter failed to look after her son who could have burnt himself up in the kitchen. Once they were out of the kitchen, she knelt before him staring into his cute blue eyes.

"Where's Michelle? And what were you doing in the kitchen?"

The young boy pouted his lips with his head facing down. "I wanted to make scrambled eggs. I'm very hungry--

"You could have asked Michelle to make you something to eat. Where is she?"

"Michelle left after daddy came back home, I asked daddy to make lunch for me but he asked me to leave"

Ashley's face fell. How could she forgot the monster of a man she got married to two years ago? She stood to her feet vibrating in anger.

"That son of a b--

****

Ashley proceeded to the bedroom ready to pour her anger and frustration on her husband who was so heartless to make lunch for their kid. Once she got to the door, she pushed it opened without warning. Her sudden intrusion startled Andrew who was halfway into pound town with a lady beneath him.

"Andrew!"

The moment he saw that it was Ashley standing by the door, he pulled his gaze away like he saw nothing and continued with his thrusts filling the room with his groans and moans. Ashley didn't look too surprised either almost as if it was a regular thing to witness.

Ashley was unhappily married to Andrew Morales, otherwise known as a manwhore. A man who only thinks with his lower half. He could literally chase anything that wears skirt and the most painful part about his affairs was that he openly does it and also brings them over to his home.

In the beginning, Ashley spent nights crying and sometimes questioning if she was good enough for him or maybe she wasn't attractive enough. His promiscuous ways started from the first day of their marriage. He never spent their wedding night with her. He had the audacity to invite a bitch over that night and banged her all night opposite the room Ashley had spent the night.

"Our son almost burnt himself up because he was trying to make something to eat and you're here--

"Yeah..right there baby..Ahhh"

The woman underneath screamed in pleasure totally cutting Ashley off from her speech. That made her incredibly mad. They could continue their atrocity in peace only if she got the response she wanted to hear. 'Why the hell could he ignore their kid?!' She screamed in her head.

She spotted a jug of water sitting on the table and walked towards it. When she was near, she grabbed it and threw it at the pair. Instantly, Andrew was forced out of the bed after the cold liquid splashed on him. He grabbed the white towel from the bed and wrapped it around his thin waist.

He glared at Ashley and walked to her in firm steps, when he was close enough to her, his hand met her face. The glass jug Ashley was holding fell off her hand crashing to the ground. It shattered into tiny pieces.

"How dare you?! Do I look like your kid's babysitter?! It seems to me that you're gradually forgetting why we are still together Ashley. Don't make me explain it to you in a hard way. Now beat it!"

Ashley still remained in that spot staring at the floor in despair. Why was she still in this marriage? That's what most people ask but only her knew what awaits a single mother like her. The world was cruel to them.

"You're still his father Andrew. You can punish me all you want! Hate me! Hit me! But don't punish my son for my mistake" She said in a pleading tone. Tears slowly welling up in her eyes amber eyes.

One would think that her words has finally managed to pierce through his thick skull but Andrew wasn't like every other men out there. He grabbed Ashley by her arm and lowered his face with a glare directed at her.

"That kid shares no relationship with me! And I give no fuck about him. I'm doing you both a favour! Remember that!"

He started walking to the door pulling Ashley along with him. He stopped right by the corridor and pushed her out like she was nothing.

"Spend the night in the guest room or under the bridge..I honestly don't care as long as you don't disturb me in any way" He didn't give her a chance to retort before slamming the door shut.

****

Later that night..

Ashley patted her son's back gently as she cooed him to sleep. Keith snuggled close to his mother on his bed. He noticed that she was lost in her thoughts. He was feeling extremely guilty thinking his mum was upset because of him.

"I'm sorry mummy, I promise you that I won't go near the kitchen again. Please don't be sad"

Ashley was jolted out of her thoughts, she pulled her son close to herself forcing a soft chuckle to put his little mind at ease."Oh.. baby. I can never be mad at you. You're a good boy. Mummy is only thinking about work" She lied through her teeth.

Every choice she made, she made sure that her son wouldn't suffer the brunt of it no matter what. "Go to sleep honey. Everything is okay?"

Few minutes later, Keith was sound asleep. Ashley stood up gently detaching herself away from him to avoid waking him up. Her lips touched his forehead softly.

"I love you baby" She whispered softly and left the room.

Right at the door, she was yanked away by Andrew. From his expression, he didn't seem pleased by something.

"Let me go!"

She forcefully pulled her arm from his grip which seemed to surprise him a little. "You think you can go around throwing that attitude of yours?! Why didn't you make dinner for my guest?!"

"She's your guest, not mine. Why don't you sought that out yourself Andrew?.." She fired back at him.

Ashley turned around and began walking away only to be pulled back by Andrew. Her back touched the wall harshly and a low grunt left her lips at the impact.

"Don't you dare give me that attitude!"

THE SPITEFUL BRIDE: MARRY TO RIVAL'S SON

4.7

"Let's get married," Mia declares, her voice trembling despite her defiant gaze into Stefan's guarded brown eyes. She needs this, even if he seems untouchable. Stefan raises a skeptical brow. "And why would I do that?" His voice was low, like a warning, and it made her shiver even though she tried not to show it. "We both have one thing in common," Mia continues, her gaze unwavering. "Shitty fathers. They want to take what's ours and give it to who they think deserves it." A pointed pause hangs in the air. "The only difference between us is that you're an illegitimate child, and I'm not." Stefan studies her, the heiress in her designer armor, the fire in her eyes that matches the burn of his own rage. "That's your solution? A wedding band as a weapon?" He said ignoring the part where she just referred to him as an illegitimate child. "The only weapon they won't see coming." She steps closer, close enough for him to catch the scent of her perfume, gunpowder and jasmine. "Our fathers stole our birthrights. The sole reason they betrayed us. We join forces, create our own empire that'll bring down theirs." A beat of silence. Then, Stefan's mouth curves into something sharp. "One condition," he murmurs, closing the distance. "No divorces. No surrenders. If we're doing this, it's for life" "Deal" Mia said without missing a beat. Her father wants to destroy her life. She wouldn't give him the pleasure, she would destroy her life as she seems fit. ................ Two shattered heirs. One deadly vow. A marriage built on revenge.

Now the rivals' disgraced children have a poisonous proposal: Marry for vengeance. Crush their fathers' legacies. Never speak of divorce. Whoever cracks first loses everything. Can these two rivals, united by their vengeful hearts, pull off a marriage of convenience to reclaim what they believe is rightfully theirs? Or will their fathers' animosity, and their own complicated pasts tear their fragile alliance apart?

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

One Night With My Billionaire Boss

Nathaniel Stone
5.0

I woke up on silk sheets that smelled of expensive cedar and cold sandalwood, a world away from my cramped apartment in Brooklyn. Beside me lay Ezra Gardner—my boss, the billionaire CEO of Gardner Holdings, and the man who could end my career with a snap of his fingers. He didn’t offer an apology for the night before; instead, he looked at me with terrifying clarity and proposed a cold, calculated business arrangement. "Marriage. It stabilizes the board and solves the PR crisis before it begins." He dressed me in archival Chanel and sent me home in his Maybach, but my life was already falling apart. My boyfriend, Irving, claimed he had passed out early, yet his location data placed him at my best friend’s apartment until three in the morning. When I tried to run, I realized Ezra was already ten steps ahead, tracking my movements and uncovering the secret I’d spent twenty years hiding: my connection to the powerful Senator Grimes. I was trapped between a CEO who treated me like a line item on a quarterly report and a boyfriend who had been using me while sleeping with my closest friend. I felt like a pawn in a game I didn't understand, wondering why a man like Ezra would walk up forty flights of stairs on a broken leg just to make sure I was safe. "Showtime, Mrs. Gardner." Standing on the red carpet in a gown that cost more than my life, I watched my cheating ex-boyfriend’s face turn pale as Ezra claimed me in front of the world. I wasn't just an assistant anymore; I was a weapon, and it was time to burn their world down.
