Flash Marriage To The Ruthless Tycoon

Flash Marriage To The Ruthless Tycoon

I was a broke clinic doctor drowning in debt, so I took a confidential job to evaluate a billionaire heir's fertility. I marched into the VIP ICU, pinned the struggling patient down, and injected a sedative. I finished the extraction and loudly declared to the family lawyer that the Holt heir was completely sterile. But then, a chilling laugh echoed from the doorway. The real heir, Jarrod Holt, the tyrant of Wall Street, stepped in. I had just sterilized his younger brother right in front of him. Facing a decade in federal prison, I was completely at his mercy. To make things worse, my arrogant ex-boyfriend tried to publicly humiliate me, and my greedy uncle threatened to burn my dead mother's belongings for ransom. I was pushed to the absolute brink of ruin. But instead of destroying me, Jarrod offered a terrifying lifeline. He bought out a Manhattan high-rise in five minutes just to ruin my ex, then handed me a marriage contract. I was terrified and deeply confused. Why would this ruthless billionaire force a nobody into a fake marriage? He knew details about my past that no one should know. Did he discover my hidden identity as 'E', the underground surgeon the entire medical world was hunting for? With my back against the wall, I signed the prenuptial agreement. "I do," I whispered at City Hall. He shoved his heavy, antique family ring onto my finger. It was supposed to be strictly business with absolutely no physical contact, but when his lips crashed violently onto mine, I knew I had just sold my soul to the devil.

Chapter 6

"Buy this building," Jarrod commanded into the phone, his voice flat and devoid of emotion. "You have five minutes." He hung up the phone and slipped it back into his pocket. He kept his arm wrapped securely around Kassie's waist, watching the two people across from him with the detached interest of a predator watching its prey. Liam stared at him for a second before bursting into a fit of hysterical laughter. "You're insane!" Liam yelled, pointing at Jarrod. "You watch too many Hollywood movies, buddy. You can't just buy a Manhattan high-rise in five minutes!" Janiyah Alford giggled, leaning against Liam. "It's so pathetic. He's trying so hard." Kassie's heart was hammering against her ribs. She reached up and nervously tugged at the sleeve of Jarrod's suit jacket. She was terrified this was going to escalate into a physical fight. Jarrod felt her trembling fingers. He reached down, covering her small hand with his large, warm palm, giving it a firm squeeze. Watch, his silence commanded. The minutes ticked by. The cafe remained dead silent. Liam smirked, pulling out his phone to call the building security. Right as the fifth minute ended, a deafening roar of heavy engines shattered the quiet street outside. Four massive, armored black Maybachs aggressively swerved onto the curb, completely blocking the street in front of the cafe. Liam and Janiyah Alford's smiles vanished instantly. They stared out the window in absolute horror. Over a dozen massive men in black suits, wearing earpieces, poured out of the vehicles. They moved with military precision, securing the perimeter. Two bodyguards marched up to the cafe and shoved the heavy glass doors open, holding them wide. A man in a sharp navy suit-Alex Kent, Jarrod's chief of staff-walked briskly into the room. He carried a leather folder tucked under his arm. Alex completely ignored Liam and Janiyah Alford. He walked straight up to Jarrod and bowed deeply. "Mr. Holt," Alex said, his voice echoing in the dead silent room. He held out the folder with both hands. "The deed has been transferred. The building is now legally yours." Liam's knees literally buckled. He grabbed the edge of the table to stop himself from collapsing onto the floor. He worked on Wall Street. He knew exactly what the name 'Holt' meant. It was the apex predator of the financial world. The Holt family could bankrupt his entire investment firm with a single phone call. Janiyah Alford's face turned the color of ash. Her hands shook so violently that her limited-edition Birkin bag slipped from her fingers and crashed onto the floor. Jarrod didn't even look at the folder. He raised his hand and pointed casually toward the VIP lounge area where Liam and Janiyah Alford had been sitting. "The decor offends me," Jarrod said to Alex, his tone bored. "Smash it." Alex didn't hesitate for a fraction of a second. He turned and gave a sharp hand signal to the bodyguards waiting by the door. The men flooded into the cafe. They pulled heavy steel batons from their belts. CRASH. A bodyguard swung his baton, shattering a massive crystal chandelier into a thousand pieces. Another man drove his boot into the Italian leather sofa, ripping the material to shreds. Glass shattered. Wood splintered. Janiyah Alford screamed in pure terror, covering her ears. Liam fell to his knees, his mouth opening and closing like a dying fish as he watched the space he had just bragged about buying get violently, systematically destroyed. Jarrod pulled Kassie firmly against his chest. He raised his large hands and covered her ears, shielding her from the deafening noise and the flying shards of glass. When the destruction was complete, the cafe looked like a war zone. Jarrod slowly walked over to where Liam was cowering on the floor. He looked down at the pathetic man. "Tomorrow morning," Jarrod stated, his voice slicing through the dust-filled air, "your firm will fire you to prevent Holt Enterprises from pulling our accounts. You are finished." Jarrod turned away. He wrapped his arm around Kassie's completely paralyzed body and guided her through the wreckage, walking out the door and into the waiting Maybach.

His Unwanted Mate: The Secret Silvermoon Heir
7.1
I waited a year for my mate, Alpha Justin, to return from the border war. While he was gone, I used my ten-million-dollar dowry to keep his crumbling pack afloat and buy life-saving elixirs for his mother. But when he finally walked through the door, he reeked of another female's scent. He brought back Gamma Brenna and a Royal Decree, coldly announcing she would be his "Co-Luna." His family, who survived entirely on my wealth, immediately turned on me. They mocked me for being a wolfless orphan since my father and brothers were slaughtered defending the kingdom. "You're just a fragile woman who belongs hidden away," Justin told me. They demanded I accept this humiliation, step aside for his new warrior mate, and continue funding their luxurious lifestyle. Justin even arrogantly offered to sleep with me just once to give me a pup as a "consolation prize," declaring his heart and body belonged entirely to Brenna. They thought my ruined pack meant I had no backing. They thought I was a pathetic victim who would cling to their scraps and accept a polluted mate-bond just to avoid being cast out into the woods as a Rogue. They had no idea I had already visited the Alpha King. I wasn't going to cry, and I certainly wasn't going to share my mate. I packed up every last cent of my ten million dollars, secured a Royal Severance Decree, and prepared to watch their arrogant pack starve to death.
