“Hi, I’m...” I begin, trying to explain who I am and why I’m here, but he cuts me off. “I know. Dad warned me. Come in,” he says, stepping back to let me inside. “So, ready to get to work?” “Yes, I... I’m ready. I’m here to work as the housekeeper. Ivan Semenovych sent me,” I say, trying to sound confident, though my voice trembles slightly. He laughs. It’s a low, pleasant sound, but I don’t understand what’s so funny. “A housekeeper? Dad certainly has a sense of humor,” he says, approaching me and slowly circling, scanning me from head to toe. “I thought you’d be wearing something a bit more... revealing. But whatever. You can start.” “Alright, where should I begin?” It doesn’t look dirty in here. Maybe I should start with the cooking. “You could start with a dance,” ...

“I have a proposal. You won’t have to work as a cook. Instead, you’ll have to become my wife. Formally. For a few months.” She stares at me, eyes wide, unable to believe her ears. “Why would you want that?” I shrug, but my voice remains steady. “Because my family is trying to manipulate me. They’ve already picked out a ‘bride’ for me. And I have no intention of marrying someone they chose. I want to focus on my business, not follow someone else's script. So, I need a girl. They want a daughter-in-law? Fine. I’ll get married, but on my terms. And in return, they’ll finally leave me in peace. I’ll pay you handsomely for this service. So, do we have a deal?”

It turns out that the girl has a secret life that few people know about. A light, cheerful, and romantic story for relaxation.

She dreamed of being free—and wealthy enough to restore the health of the person she loved most. Suddenly, the young orphan is offered a chance to make one of her dreams come true.

Rumor has it he’s a monster, and every woman he weds dies young under mysterious circumstances. Will she be the next name on the list of his dead wives? Or… is there something—or someone—else she should fear more? One thing is certain: surrender is not in her nature. Adventure. Romance. Danger.

Over four years, they had exchanged only a few sentences, all of them about their studies. Stas never noticed the modest Yasmin, and she deliberately ignored the popular classmate. But New Year’s night, and one accidental innocent kiss, change absolutely everything. A sudden rush of passion sweeps away both their sensible objections. What kind of spell is this? They aren’t in love. Right? In his eyes, dark as sin, there was an entire unknown world. And she was there too. In his eyes. She had never felt so visible before. “I’m not in love,” she suddenly blurted out, surprising even herself, though not a single muscle in her face moved. Only her fingers pressed harder into the papers. “No?” She shook her head. Stas answered with that predatory smile he kept first in his arsenal.

Here is the translation of the provided text into English: --- “I want to talk to you.” “There’s nothing to talk about,” he says too sharply. “There is something. A month ago, we slept together.” “I didn’t know you were Petro’s daughter. I wouldn’t have touched you otherwise.” “Are you afraid of him?” “I don’t want to ruin business relations.” “I hate to disappoint you, but they’re already ruined.” “What do you mean?” he asks, grim and tense. “Artur, that night has consequences,” I say, holding my breath. “What kind?” he hisses, piercing me with a stern gaze. “This morning, I took a pregnancy test,” I pause, giving him time to process. “And it showed a positive result.”

- I’m pregnant, Sasha. - What did you say? – he asks, lowering his voice. - I’m pregnant, thirteen weeks, – I say louder, and the fear slowly recedes. – We’re going to have a baby. - I’m not leaving Oksana, – his voice is cold, unfriendly. – You knew this, I told you more than once.
