Under the Billionaire’s Rules

She challenged him in public. He claimed her in private. Now one secret ties them together forever. Addison Heartly has spent her life fighting for a cause that matters. As the face of a rising charity, she believes in integrity, independence, and keeping her personal life far away from scandal. She has no patience for arrogant billionaires who treat generosity like a performance—especially not Daniel Jacobs. Daniel Jacobs is everything Addison despises. Ruthless. Powerful. Untouchable. A billionaire CEO who controls boardrooms, headlines, and people with equal ease. When Addison publicly challenges him at a charity gala, he should walk away. Instead, he becomes obsessed. One heated confrontation turns into one reckless night. By morning, Daniel is gone—and Addison is left with more than regret. She's pregnant. Keeping the secret feels like the only way to protect her career and the charity she built from nothing. But secrets don't stay hidden forever—especially when they involve one of the most powerful men in the city. When the truth explodes into the public eye, Daniel doesn't react with kindness. He reacts with control. Fired. Cornered. Trapped. Daniel gives Addison an ultimatum she can't escape: Move into his world and live by his rules—or watch everything she loves disappear. Forced under the same roof, enemies become unwilling allies… and dangerous desires resurface. Addison refuses to be owned. Daniel refuses to let go. Beneath the power plays and emotional warfare, something deeper begins to crack open—something neither of them planned for. But when control turns into obsession and pride stands in the way of love, the question remains: Will this billionaire destroy the woman carrying his child… or risk everything to finally fight for her?
