Forbidden Desire: The Billionaire's Dangerous Game

My name is Lorelei, and I once had the perfect life—until I lost everything overnight. My ex-husband destroyed my mother's company, my grandmother lay dying in the ICU—and when I had nowhere left to turn, Dante Ashford appeared. This ruthless billionaire offered me a devil's bargain: become his secret mistress in exchange for his help. I told myself we were from different worlds, that I shouldn't fall. But beneath his icy exterior, in those rare moments of tenderness, I couldn't stop myself from plummeting into the abyss. Until that scandal broke—when he threw me to the wolves without hesitation to protect his fiancée's reputation. In that moment, the truth became crystal clear: after all this time, I meant nothing to him. I was just a disposable tool. So I left. I locked my heart away. Four years later, this once untouchable, cold-hearted man is on his knees before me, eyes filled with desperation and remorse, his voice hoarse with pleading: "Don't marry him, Lorelei. Please... give me one more chance." But as the buried truth between us slowly surfaces, I discover that from the very beginning, our relationship was wrapped in lies. Can I ever trust this man who has hurt me again and again?
