I Accidentally Married My Boss in Vegas (And He Doesn’t Want an Annulment)

Chapter 1: The Tequila Incident

The last thing I remembered before waking up in a penthouse suite was:

Doing karaoke with my boss to I Will Always Love You (badly)

A bet involving body shots (mine) and a dare (his)

A blurry chapel with an Elvis impersonator

And now?

A diamond ring on my finger.

I bolted upright, only to freeze at the sight of Nathaniel Carter—CEO, my terrifying boss, and apparently my husband—lounging in the doorway with two coffees and a smirk.

"Morning, Mrs. Carter," he drawled, tossing me a laminated certificate. "Turns out you’re a screamer when you say ‘I do.’"

Chapter 2: The Fine Print

The annulment papers arrived the next Monday.

Nathaniel shredded them in front of HR.

"We signed a prenup," he informed me, sliding a 20-page document across my desk. "Page 14 states you get my penthouse if we last a year."

I choked. "This is a fake marriage!"

His smile was all teeth. "Then why does your signature look so real?"

Chapter 3: The Performance

Turns out, Nathaniel’s investors love a "stable family man." So now we had to:

✔ Hold hands at galas ("Tighter, sweetheart. The cameras love this.")

✔ Share his penthouse ("Pick a side of the bed. I don’t snore.")

✔ Kiss at office parties ("For credibility," he murmured against my lips)

The worst part?

I was starting to like it.

Chapter 4: The Lie Unravels

Then his ex-fiancée showed up.

Amelia: *"You married your assistant? How desperate."

Me: "Actually, I’m his executive coordinator—"

Nathaniel: "She’s also the love of my life."

The room went silent.

I stared at him. "What?"

He dropped to one knee. "I remember every second of that chapel, Claire. Including the part where you proposed to me."

Chapter 5: The Truth in the Contract

The real prenup was hidden behind a fake one.

Clause 12: "If either party falls in love, the marriage becomes legally binding."

Nathaniel’s pen hovered over the line. "You’ve got 30 seconds to stop me."

I kissed him instead.

Epilogue: The Raise

A year later, I got two things:

The penthouse

A new title: "CEO’s Actual Wife"

Nathaniel framed our wedding photo next to the company mission statement.

"Best merger I ever made," he whispered, biting my earlobe during a board meeting.

I grinned. "Wait till you see the acquisition I’ve planned for tonight."

"Would YOU stay married for a penthouse? (Asking for a friend.)"
