A substitute to my Mafia bossUpdated at Aug 8, 2024, 04:45
How else was one supposed to act when her boss tells her that he has videos of her messing around with her ex? How exactly was I supposed to reject his offer when we both knew that I was the one on the losing end here?
“So, you've resorted to blackmailing now? Is that how you run this company?”
He left his desk and in a few strides, he was standing right in front of me.
Mr. Smith stood a lot closer to me than he had ever done since I started working for him. My chest heaved and my breathing became heavy.
I was never one to get intimidated so easily but Mr. Smith made me feel that way in a matter of seconds. He made me feel small. Minuscule. Minute.
“It's not blackmail. It's a fair exchange. You marry me, stay by my side for ninety days and you'll get paid a hefty sum of a million dollars.”

Emily Williams is drawn into a life she has no business with. It all started when she broke up with her toxic boyfriend in her office and Ander smith, her boss, claimed her as his substitute bride on the same day which happened to be his wedding day. Emily refuses at first but when Ander blackmails her with certain uncomfortable videos of her and offers her a million dollars, she has no choice but to play the role of an obedient wife.
Life with Ander is not what Emily imagined at all. She is welcomed into a home that has been tagged cursed and where mafia Lords fire guns at any chance they get. What's even worse is that she is now marked for death.
Will Emily survive her marriage of ninety days?
Will she and Ander fall in love eventually?
