Billionaire’s Forbidden Love

Ava Sinclair had always believed that hard work could solve anything. She had spent years struggling to make ends meet, juggling multiple jobs while trying to keep her father’s small art gallery alive. But no amount of determination could have prepared her for the night that changed everything.

It started with a single phone call.

“Your father’s debts are past due, Ms. Sinclair.” The cold, calculated voice on the other end sent a chill down her spine. “If he can’t pay… we will collect in other ways.”

Ava clutched the phone tighter, her heart pounding. She knew her father had financial troubles, but she never realized they had spiraled this far. He had taken loans from dangerous people, and now the debt collectors were demanding immediate payment.

“I—I just need more time,” she pleaded.

“You don’t have time,” the man interrupted. “Unless… you’re willing to negotiate with Mr. Knight himself.”

Ava’s breath hitched. Damian Knight. The name alone carried power, wealth, and a reputation that sent shivers through anyone who heard it. He was a billionaire, the CEO of Knight Enterprises, and the kind of man who got what he wanted—at any cost.

She had heard the rumors. Ruthless. Cold. Dangerous. A man who didn’t believe in love, only business transactions.

And now, she was being thrown into his world.

The Billionaire’s Proposal

The next evening, Ava found herself stepping into the towering glass skyscraper that housed Knight Enterprises. The walls gleamed with luxury, but the atmosphere felt suffocating. She was led through a series of private elevators until she reached the top floor—the domain of Damian Knight himself.

He was waiting for her.

Seated behind a massive desk, dressed in a perfectly tailored black suit, Damian Knight was every bit as intimidating as the rumors said. His sharp blue eyes studied her with an intensity that made her throat go dry.

“You’re Ava Sinclair,” he said, his voice deep, measured. It wasn’t a question—it was a statement.

Ava squared her shoulders. “Yes. And you’re the man who owns my father’s debts.”

A flicker of amusement crossed his face. “I suppose that’s one way to put it.”

Ava hesitated. “Please… I need more time to repay the money.”

Damian leaned back, folding his hands together. “I don’t give second chances, Miss Sinclair. But… I do make deals.”

She frowned. “Deals?”

He stood up, walking around the desk, stopping just inches from her. His presence was overwhelming, his cologne rich and intoxicating. “I need a wife. A temporary wife.”

Ava’s eyes widened. “What?”

“I need to finalize a business merger,” Damian continued, his tone smooth and unreadable. “And my investors prefer a ‘family man.’ I need a wife for six months. After that, you’re free.”

She was stunned into silence. A contract marriage? It sounded insane. But before she could respond, Damian dropped the final bombshell.

“If you agree, I will wipe out your father’s debt completely.”

Ava felt the ground tilt beneath her. This wasn’t just a deal—it was a trap. One that came with golden handcuffs.

“What if I say no?” she whispered.

Damian’s expression darkened. “Then your father loses everything. His gallery, his home… everything.”

Ava swallowed hard. She didn’t have a choice. She was being sold to the devil himself.

A Wedding Without Love

Two weeks later, Ava stood in a designer wedding gown, her hands trembling as she held a bouquet of white roses. The ceremony was small, attended only by Damian’s close business associates. There was no love in the air—only cold, calculated necessity.

Damian stood beside her, his face unreadable. When the priest asked if he took Ava as his lawfully wedded wife, he simply said, “I do.”

Ava’s lips felt numb when she whispered the same words.

As soon as the ceremony ended, Damian leaned down and murmured in her ear, “This is just business. Don’t forget that.”

His touch was gentle on her waist, but his words were a warning.

Ava forced a smile for the cameras, but inside, she felt like a prisoner.

She had married a man who didn’t believe in love. And she had just become a pawn in his dangerous world.

The Forbidden Attraction

Ava had expected cold indifference from her new husband, but she hadn’t expected the strange, undeniable pull between them.

At first, Damian was distant, treating her like just another business deal. But slowly, things began to shift.

stolen glance across the dining table.

A moment of unexpected kindness when he shielded her from the press.

A lingering touch that sent electricity racing through her veins.

But just as she started to see cracks in his icy exterior, she discovered the truth.

The real reason Damian had chosen her. The secret he was hiding.

And just like that, their contract marriage became something far more dangerous.

ow, Ava wasn’t just trapped in a loveless marriage.

She was trapped in his world.

And she wasn’t sure if she would ever escape.

What Happens Next?

Ava’s story is just beginning. Love, betrayal, secrets, and passion will push her and Damian to their limits. Can a marriage built on lies turn into something real? Or will Damian’s dark past destroy them both?
