Penelope’s wedding day should have been perfect—until she found her best friend in her fiancé’s bed. Running from the ruins of her future, she fell into one night with a stranger whose touch felt like safety. No names. No future. Just escape. Until two pink lines changed everything. Years later, Penelope returns with twins, a stronger heart, and no plans to fall in love again. But fate traps her in close quarters with a ruthless billionaire… who happens to be the man from that unforgettable night. He doesn’t know she’s the bride who disappeared. He doesn’t know the children are his. Old enemies want revenge. Old secrets refuse to stay buried. And the man who swore he would never love… kneels. The billionaire proposed. This time, Penelope isn’t just choosing love. She’s choosing her life.

Chapter 1 of The Billionaire Proposed

Perfection had followed Penelope since birth. From childhood, she wanted only one thing—to marry her first love after college and raise two beautiful children with him, a boy and a girl.

And the universe has done exactly what she always wished for, she believed herself to be the luckiest girl on earth.

There she was, during her bridal preparation that morning, looking stunning just hours before she would walk down the aisle.

Geoffrey, her husband-to-be, has been the love of her life since high school, and they have loved each other since then. They'll both be walking down the aisle in a few hours. The butterfly in her belly couldn't help but feel how joyful she was feeling.

“I know of just one beautiful bride, Pen, and that you, baby,” Hillary, her best friend, whispered into her ears, breaking her thoughts.

“Yes… Yes, I am. I feel it already—I feel beautiful and wonderful, Hillary. My fairytale ending is about to begin. I can’t wait,” Penelope said with a big, beautiful smile.

“I'm so sure Geoffrey will be glad to have you as his wife, no one will be able to tear their eyes away from you today, beautiful,” Hillary said, giving Pen an admiring look as the make-up artist added a final touch to her face.

“I'm done, ma'am. You look so pretty,” the make-up artist said.

“Awwnn thanks, thank you so much for making my face look flawless,” Penelope murmured.

“Your dress is next. Pen, let me help you out. We can't afford to be late; this is not a high school graduation.” Hill grinned.

Penelope slid into her short white wedding ball dress with a big beautiful chapel bow trail at the back, as Hill helped her with the lace-up closure. “What would I do without you, baby?” Pen stated.

“Let's hope you never find out," Hill said softly.

Pen’s mom died tragically five years ago from leukemia, leaving her with her dad and Hillary, whom she trusted more than anyone in the world. Her dad stated he won't remarry until Pen got married, he didn't want any woman treating his princess the way he didn't like.

The door creaked, and Mr Will, Pen’s father, entered the dressing room, and he was astonished.

“Oh, my baby, you look just like Cinderella. Can I ever be more proud than this moment? You've always made me proud, but this is exceptional, how I wish your mama witnessed this.” Mr Will was almost moved to tears as he looked into his daughter's eyes.

Tears welled up in Pen’s eyes. “I hope she's resting well, Dad. I know she's with me; she's always with me.”

“Don’t ruin your makeup, sweet. I'll leave you to it, Hillary. Please take care of my daughter. Mr Will said and Hillary nodded at his words, as he left the room for them to do their thing.

“Oops, I need to go check what's going on at the venue, everything must be just how I planned and requested. Will you be fine by yourself?” Hillary asked, and Pen gave a furrowed look, blinking her eyes continually.

“I'll be just fine,” Pen assured.

“My mom will be here soon, she'll help you get ready, and keep you company,” Hill promised.

“Thanks, hon.” Pen blew her a kiss.

Hill’s mom, Mrs Oretha, has been a wonderful woman to Pen since Mrs Will passed away. She tried her best to always be there for Pen and not make her feel the absence of her mom in any way.

Penelope travelled into her wonderland of thoughts, and suddenly missing Geoffrey, she thought to creep over to the other side of the hotel and surprise him, before Mrs Oretha got here, after all, they booked the same hotel apartment to prepare for the wedding.

She left her apartment and headed for Geoffrey's apartment, with joy welling up in her. She just loves being around the man she has loved since childhood.

Walking down the hallway, she decided to give him a call and confirm his exact location.

The phone rang four times before he picked up.

“Hey wifey-to-be, how are you doing?” he asked and she smiled like a baby.

Pen- “I'm doing great hubby-to-be.” still smiling.

Geoffrey- “Missing me?” he asked as though he could read her mind.

Pen- “Yuppy, I miss you all the time, is Varney with you?” Referring to his best man.

Geoffrey- “ No he just stepped out. How is the preparation over there?” he asked.

Pen- “I'm dressed, waiting for Hill’s mom.

Geoffrey- “Ok then, I'm at my apartment, rounding up and waiting for the rings to be delivered.”

Pen- “Ok, baby, see you soon. I love ya,” she grinned.

Five minutes later, she arrived at his apartment, carefully lifting her bow trail to keep it from brushing the floor. She didn't bother ringing the bell, she entered the passcode and walked in.

Entering the house, the butterflies in her belly cringed when she saw the black spool heels by the door.

She continued inside, and just when she wanted to call his name, she saw a beige dress strewn across the couch. Her stomach twisted.

She recognised the dress, and her brows furrowed. That dress was what Hillary was wearing before she left to check the venue. Looking back at the heels, she clocked it was the birthday gift she got for Hillary two months ago on her birthday.

Why was Hill here and not at the venue? And why didn't Geoffrey mention that Hill was with him? Penelope mused. Her heart raced as she moved towards the bedroom.

Her mind began connecting the dots, but her heart refused to accept them.

She decided to make up a story in her head. Maybe Hillary came to check up on Geoffrey, and a drink spilled on her dress, so she went to the bathroom to clean up.

But as she moved closer to the bedroom the story she was making up was getting less believable.

Penelope froze at the half-open bedroom door. For a moment, her mind went blank—then the truth crashed into her as tears streamed down her face. Hillary’s moans filled the air as Geoffrey thrust into her repeatedly. Geoffrey pulled her closely and sucked her boobs so intently.

“Geoffrey this marriage is just one year, as planned. You get her inheritance, and then we dump her.” Hillary stated as Geoffrey dipped his dick into her throat.

“Trust me, Hill, it's you I love. She is so silly and childish. I can't wait to get rid of her.” Geoffrey muttered and laughed mockingly. Immediately the illusion of perfection fractured without warning.

My hands trembled as I stood at the edge of the ceremonial circle, watching the other seniors of our pack take their turns. The Coming of Age Ceremony was everything in werewolf society—the moment when our abilities would be fully tested, our ranks determined, our futures set. The scent of pine needles and burning sage filled the night air, and the full moon hung heavy above us, its silver light bathing the clearing in an ethereal glow. Ryan stood across the circle, his dark hair gleaming under the moonlight, those green eyes finding mine with the same reassurance they'd offered since we were pups. My heart fluttered as it always did when he looked at me. We'd been raised with the understanding that we were destined mates—our families had planned it, the pack expected it, and I had built my entire future around it. "Sophia Williams," Elder Marcus called, his Alpha voice resonating through the clearing. I stepped forward, my white ceremonial dress billowing around my ankles. Inside me, my wolf—Sarah—stirred anxiously. *We should show our full strength*, she whispered in my mind.

“Don’t stop,” she whispered. “She won’t come up.” I did. I stopped breathing. Thinking. Existing. The voice came from inside my bedroom—our bedroom. My sanctuary. I stood frozen in the hallway, dinner still warm downstairs, candles flickering in a room that no longer mattered. The scent of truffle butter still clung to my sleeves. Through the door—left carelessly ajar—I saw enough. A woman with auburn hair and wine-colored nails was curled into my husband's side, her lipstick smeared across his throat like a bruise. Her fingers skimmed down his back, possessive, practiced. Oliver moaned softly. A sound I hadn’t heard in months. I didn’t scream. I didn’t cry. I turned. Through the adjoining bathroom, I slipped into the walk-in closet, hiding behind the luxury he insisted I needed. Dresses lined in neat rows. Shoes in pyramids. A fortress of silk and leather and betrayal. I sat down, gripping the hem of my dress, listening. “I don’t know why you’re still stalling,” Lily said, her voice languid and confident. “She’s not stupid, Oliver. She’s suspicious. You said she keeps asking questions.” He sighed. “Let her ask. She won’t do anything. Not until it’s too late.” A beat. “She’s planning something tonight,” he added, almost amused. “Made some kind of fancy dinner. Probably filet again. It’s sweet, in a tragic way.” Lily giggled. “You think she’s figured out we’ve been using her?” “Scarlett sees what she wants to see. She’s desperate. That’s what makes it easy.” There was movement on the bed. Sheets shifting. “She still has no idea about the inheritance?” Lily murmured. “None,” he said. “Her father’s trust releases next month. Once the money hits the accounts, I’ll serve the papers. I’ve already started moving things offshore.” My throat closed. I bit the inside of my cheek so hard I tasted blood. So this was what I got from our five-year marriage.
