Elena Beaumont has everything-wealth, status, and a future carved in gold. But behind the glittering façade lies a heart yearning for freedom. When a chance encounter with Kai, a rebellious outsider with a storm in his eyes, pulls her into a world of midnight rides and raw truths, Elena discovers what it means to truly live. As stolen moments turn into undeniable passion, Elena must choose between the life she's always known and the love that defies every rule. In a story of risk, redemption, and romance, Love Beyond the Lines explores how far we'll go for the one who makes us feel alive.

Chapter 1 The Gilded Cage

The Beaumont estate stretched across acres of manicured lawns and marble fountains, a fortress of wealth and tradition. Elena Beaumont stood at the window of her bedroom, watching the sunset bleed into the horizon. The view was breathtaking, but it felt like a painting hung in a gallery-beautiful, untouchable, and lifeless.

Her life was scripted: charity galas, private school debates, and dinners where conversations revolved around mergers and acquisitions. Every smile was rehearsed, every word calculated. Tonight was no different. Another gala, another evening of polite laughter and hollow compliments.

"Elena, are you ready?" her mother's voice floated through the door, crisp and commanding.

"Yes," Elena replied, smoothing the silk of her gown. She looked perfect-because perfection was expected. But inside, she felt like a ghost haunting her own life.

The limousine ride to the downtown hotel was silent except for the hum of the engine. Her parents discussed business expansions while Elena stared out the tinted glass, watching the city blur past. Neon lights flickered, people laughed on sidewalks, and for a moment, she envied their freedom.

The ballroom glittered with chandeliers and champagne flutes. Elena smiled, nodded, and played her part. But as the speeches droned on, a restless energy coiled inside her. She needed air-needed escape.

Slipping through a side door, she stepped into the cool night. The city smelled of rain and possibility. That's when she saw him.

A motorcycle gleamed under a streetlamp, and beside it leaned a man who looked like he owned the night. Leather jacket, tousled hair, and eyes that carried storms. He wasn't part of her world-he was the warning every parent gave.

Their eyes met. For a heartbeat, the noise of the city faded.

"Lost, princess?" His voice was rough, teasing.

She should have walked away. Instead, she said, "Maybe I am."

He smirked, swinging a leg over the bike. "Hop on. I'll show you what running feels like."

Every rule screamed no. But the part of her that had been suffocating whispered yes. Before she could overthink, she slid behind him, gripping the leather of his jacket as the engine roared to life.

The city lights blurred as they sped through streets she'd never seen before-neon signs, graffiti murals, laughter spilling from late-night diners. It was chaotic, raw, and real. For the first time in years, Elena wasn't Beaumont's daughter or the perfect heiress-she was just a girl chasing something that felt alive.

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

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.

"And I want him to see what he lost." ••••*••••*••••* Meadow Russell was supposed to get married to the love of her life in Vegas. Instead, she walked in on her twin sister riding her fiance. One drink at the bar turned to ten. One drunken mistake turned into reality. And one stranger's offer turned into a contract that she signed with shaking hands and a diamond ring. Alaric Ashford is the devil in a tailored Tom Ford suit. Billionaire CEO, brutal, possessive. A man born into an empire of blood and steel. He also suffers from a neurological condition-he can't feel. Not objects, not pain, not even human touch. Until Meadow touches him, and he feels everything. And now he owns her. On paper and in his bed. She wants him to ruin her. Take what no one else could have. He wants control, obedience... revenge. But what starts as a transaction slowly turns into something Meadow never saw coming. Obsession, secrets that were never meant to surface, and a pain from the past that threatens to break everything. Alaric doesn't share what's his. Not his company. Not his wife. And definitely not his vengeance.
