Naruto For Want Of A Nail

All she wanted was to save her brother. And all he wanted was a child. He bought her, bound to a contract to give him a child and disappear from his life afterwards, but what hit her like a storm was love... falling for the masked monster who bought her body. Andrew Sterling hated greedy women, and every woman he'd contracted to bear his child, heir to the Sterling Enterprises, had been just that. When Anne, his third contracted surrogate, showed up, he saw her as the very same type of woman until she peeled open his stone-cold heart. What ties them next isn't just a baby contract, but an unexpected marriage formulated by Andrew's grandfather. But a man who has always despised marriage will never be tied down, not even by his contracted surrogate, because the minute she gave him the child he needed, he would send her out of his life. But when the tables turn on him... He says to her, "With a husband as rich as me, right now you're the wealthiest woman alive." "We're only married till I give birth," she retorted. He frowns at that, feeling internally displeased. "It doesn't matter how long we're married for. From now on, everything I own is yours. If you want heaven and earth, I'll buy it for you. My wife will never be found lacking a single fucking thing." She stared at him in disbelief. When did he start feeling something for her? He couldn't remember.

Imagine you're in a relationship...(Just imagine since it's not real, is it?) where both feelings are strong but sometimes it's really confusing and then one night, the person you care about says "I want you… not just to hold your hand, but to get lost in everything that you are. I need you… not because I’m weak, but because without you, even being strong feels empty." and they really mean it with aaaalll their heart. And, if you were the one listening to these words, how would you feel? Would you think it's "true love" or would you worry they're too much emotionally dependent on you? What would you say back? They say words carry power but some carry weight. And we often express our feelings like... "I like you." It's Simple, soft, and safe. "I want you." It's Intense, urgent, hungry. "I need you." It's Desperate, vulnerable, dangerous. What we say reveals more than what we feel, it reveals how we love, and sometimes, how we break. It's also about the fine line between affection and obsession, between longing and control. It's about the people who say they want you, need you, love you and the truths buried beneath their words. Because sometimes, the most beautiful things whispered to your heart... come with the sharpest edges.

It’s a story about secrets, survival, and figuring out the difference between what you want and what you actually need. There’s action, found family, emotional twists, romance, a "bit" of comedy, obsession, dramatic, possessiveness and a whole lot of heart. If you like stories with messy feelings, strong leads, and dangerous missions, romance with action and comedy, this one's for you.

The business connections she was so proud of? His people made it happen. Her “natural talent” in business? Just him, coaching her from the shadows. Now she's on her knees, begging for forgiveness. But he only smiles faintly—arms around another woman: "Tell me… who's not good enough for who now?"
