THE BABY DEAL
You’ve read countless contract marriage stories where the powerful billionaire holds all the power. But what if the roles were reversed? This time, she’s the one offering the contract—and he has no choice but to sign.
Athena Dankworth, a 29-year-old self-made billionaire, built Europe’s largest oil and gas empire, securing her place among the world’s wealthiest. But as her 30th birthday approaches, she realizes success has cost her something priceless—a family. Determined to take control, she does what she does best: make a deal.
Her offer? A contract marriage with Roman Bankole, a struggling schoolteacher in desperate need of financial security. In exchange, he’ll give her the one thing money can’t buy—a child. Roman, proud but out of options, agrees. But he refuses to be just another pawn in her empire.
From the start, their marriage is a battlefield—Athena demands control, and Roman fights for independence. Then, she discovers his secret: he’s not just a teacher—he’s a billionaire tech prodigy. Now, the power dynamic shifts, emotions blur, and as Athena finds herself pregnant, the biggest question remains: Will they walk away when the contract ends, or risk everything for a love none of them saw coming?
